My sensation XE does not detect network even when the SIM is inserted and says "Limited Connectivity" however when I try searching network manually, it does show couple of network in my area.

I have tried a many SIMs and many radios and other stuffs but nothing worked. Today I saw your post and it looked like light at the end of tunnel. My question is, if I flash your files, will it resolve my problem (possibly? I am ready to try anyways)?

Also, I had very recently started using Sensation XE hence RIL and matching radio and other stuffs are going over my head, I will definitely read more but right now need a quick help so that I can fix this problem.

This is what my phone's bootloader says, can you suggest me which file and radio and other files do I need to flash?

-Firmware-3.33-

PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT-1.27.1100

RADIO: 11.24A.3504.31_M

OpenADSP-v05.6.0.2226.00.0418

eMMC-boot

Jan 13 2013, 17: 33: 34

Which file do I need to flash and what radio will make my network work again?
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Your info looks fine and should work as is with any ROM and any RIL provided with it.

Which ROM are you using or planning to use?

Make sure you have a good clean contact with phone's back plate since it's the antenna for the phone.

Of course you can flash firmware from OP since it has a newer/latest radio and if you use AOSP-based 4.2.2 or 4.3 ROM flash .37 RIL

Don't flash any of these RILs if you're using a Sence ROM!
[HTC Sensation] marcopolo:
Thanks so miuch for your quick response. I am currently using ViperS's ICS ROM (downloaded long back when I bought my first XE) and prior to this I have tried many many ROMs including Stock but network just does not work.

ViperS is a sense 4.0 ROM, as suggested by you, I won't flash RIL but I am now very confuse as to What exactly has happened to my phone and why I don't get network.

The back cover is good, contacts are clean and everything is good... the phone even detects the SIM card and reads it's contacts and all... it can even search and shows available network though it won't connect with any of those.

Now sure what's wrong, why I don't get network :confused:
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Very weird. Try flashing firmware from OP and flash Revolution ROM just to test in sorta native environment. Report back.
[HTC Sensation] marcopolo:
Thank you [MENTION=5192922]Noobel[/MENTION], I will flash it tomorrow as it's my off from work and then will report back. :good:
[HTC Sensation] nachopre:
Hi [MENTION=5192922]Noobel[/MENTION]!

I do not know how you did the job with RIL files, I mean mixing existing files or some modification into the code, but anyway, Could you do these RIL's versions for new ROM CM10 by bruce http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1782009 to work on AOSP 4.1.2? That rom flies, believe me, but i need the network scan at work due to mobile signal problems with my carrier.

If i have said any nonsense please do not get me wrong.

Thanks.

Regards.
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Try the attached HTC-RIL_4.0.0037HMQ_test.zip and report. If it's good - great, if not - flash HTC-RIL_4.0.0037HMQ_CM10_Bruce_11_Sept.zip - this will revert to orig files from Bruce's 11 Sept ROM and only update RIL to .37 - surely it will work but no network scan fix.

That's all I can do for ya. Unfortunately I'm not a programmer to edit code...

:cowboy:
[HTC Sensation] nachopre:
Ok. I am now on Albino's 4.2.2 again to be able to use your previous RIL's for network scan. But I will try Bruce's CM10 and i will tell you.

1000 thanks!!!
[HTC Sensation] topgeardave:
Could anyone who's running Bruces cm10 manually change the files instead of flashing it? I've tried it and it worked fine for a bit but my network connection went borked after two weeks.
[HTC Sensation] LordNerevar:
This is working for me on Bruce's latest ROM. Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Great!

Please give us some details - did HTC-RIL_4.0.0037HMQ_test.zip work fine or you're talking about HTC-RIL_4.0.0037HMQ_CM10_Bruce_11_Sept.zip ?

Thanx
[HTC Sensation] TheWall-[ITA]:
HTC-RIL_4.0.0037HMQ_test.zip is working for me on 14 Sept build of CM10 by bruce. Good signal and network search is working fine :good:

Thank you so much :D

Android Revolution Didn't work

Hi [MENTION=5192922]Noobel[/MENTION], I flashed ARHD ROM but it couldn't resolve my problem. I still do not get any network on my phone, not sure what's wrong :crying::(
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Sad to hear.

Did you flash firmware from OP prior to flashing ROM?

Have you tried a SIM from a different operator?
[HTC Sensation] marcopolo:
I couldn't download that firmware, page was redirecting me to a blank page, I guess file was removed by the server.

Yes, I did try many SIMs but none worked. When I search, I see network however phone won't allow me to select any network (even the default network for the SIM).

Would you suggest me to take it to the HTC service center?
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
The page is there actually try once more http://www73.zippyshare.com/v/16143274/file.html (read how to flash FW carefully)

Flash FW then ARHD ROM then test and report if still doesn't work go to service center let them check your hardware...
[HTC Sensation] marcopolo:
[MENTION=5192922]Noobel[/MENTION], I highly appreciate your time and help, thanks man.

Again, it didn't work. I still don't get network at all. Once again, I could see networks however phone didn't allow me to connect with any.

Don't know what's wrong with it, it is disappointing me now :(
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Did it ever work before? Have you tried going back to original stock ROM? It seems to me like a weird hardware issue. Can you make sure all SIM pins are ok?
[HTC Sensation] marcopolo:
Yes, it did worked well however stopped connecting with network all of a sudden. The phone is not very old, I bought it last month only (from eBay).

The SIM contact looks good as I have tried multiple SIMs and it does detect network but won't connect to any at all.

I have already tried Stock ROM (official install) as well as many many radio/firmware combination but none worked.

Would you suggest me to take it to the HTC Service Center?
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Donno really what else to suggest. Btw, did you actually flash FW from my zippyshare link?

Obviously you can take your phone to HTC's SC and let them make some diagnostics. Don't forget to flash RUU before going to HTC.

:cowboy:
[HTC Sensation] marcopolo:
Thanks so much [MENTION=5192922]Noobel[/MENTION], you are very kind. I am now pretty sure that it's a hardware problem. Yes, I did flash FW from your link and after flashing, my bootloader said "Locked". Afterwards I did a clean install with ARHD ROM.

Thanks for reminding me about the RUU, I was about to take this phone with custom recovery and a super customized ROM :P

I will restore it to stock now
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Welcome :) just let me know what is the problem after all.

Regarding bootloader, the locked status is not a problem for you, cause you're s-off, and there's no unlocked/prepatched version 1.29... Flash unlocked v1.27... if you need unlocked status so much, which I doubt. ;)

Read OP it's all there... ;)

Good luck!
[HTC Sensation] marcopolo:
No no no, you misunderstood me. By saying "Bootloader said locked" I meant it was after effect of flashing your FW. I am already S-off and that's what is needed.

I am now 100% sure that it's a hardware failure, I will take it to the HTC center tomorrow however I am somewhat convinced that this is going to be used as an offline music player, camera, camcorder and a stand-by internet surfing machine without phone feature :P
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Sometimes I'm thinking to do the same, cause my old nokia e51 is a much better phone when it comes to phone calls and network connectivity in general :P even comparing to iphone 4-5 and galaxy s3...
[HTC Sensation] HatteSoul:
Now it works

I just want to give positive feedback:

I installed cm-10.1-20130806-Albinoman887-pyramid.zip with full wipe on my S-OFF Sensation XE and I had this network scanning issue.

So, I followed your instructions from the OP. To be sure, I reapplied the 3.33 firmware with updated 11.29A radio. Then I flashed HTC-RIL_4.0.0037HMQ_AOSP.zip and network scanning works!

Thanks Noobel!
[HTC Sensation] LordNerevar:
The HTC-RIL_4.0.0037HMQ_test.zip file works. Thanks for posting it!

The default ROM RIL and the *Bruce_11_Sept* gives the scan error. I'm assuming those are identical.
[HTC Sensation] pathjes:
True, if you flash stempox ril on Albinoman's CM10.2 you get no network ( you can search automaticly but after every reboot you have lost your network again )
[HTC Sensation] LordNerevar:
I've found that 3.32 firmware works better with Bruce's CM10 ROM. I get a much faster GPS fix now and my signals are significantly improved. The only downside is scanning is broken. Is there any working CM10 (JB 4.1) RIL for radio 11.69A.3504.00P_11.23.3504.07_M2? Preferably either HTC-RIL 4.0.0017HMQ or HTC-RIL 4.0.0024HMQ.
[HTC Sensation] soroush0313:
Hi there...

Link for the latest FW not available and deleted...

Could you upload it again somewhere else?!

Thanks a lot for your efforts...
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
It's actually working just fine.

Here it is http://www73.zippyshare.com/v/16143274/file.html
[HTC Sensation] Krasus:
I'm on CM 10.2 (Albinoman's) and my friend is on Viper. We both bought Anker battery recently, and for some reason he gets more battery time on his Sense ROM than me on CM. Could this be related to radio/RIL version? I've set CPU freq to 1188, lowered brightness levels and stuff, and to my limited understanding of android, "clean" CM ROM should drain less battery than Sense because it's less loaded with stuff (you can see it even by comparing the ROM files, it's like 150mb (Albinoman's CM ROM) compared to ~600mb (Viper). So, should I update RIL/Radio to the newest files to get better battery life, or are these two issues unrelated?

Also thanks for making this thread!
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
I don't think Radio/RIL change will outrun you friends Sense ROM battery wise. Sense ROMs / kernels are better "optimized" in this regard. Try flashing Sultan's 590mb kernel, and choose BADASS as a governor.

And yes, flash the latest firmware+radio and RIL .37 ;)
[HTC Sensation] LordNerevar:
I've found that the official CM-9.1.0 also has this network search error. Does anyone have network searching working on an ICS AOSP ROM?
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Tested RIL packages with latest KitKat ROM by LaidbackNikez - works as advertised! :D

Try this: open zip with winrar and delete rild file from /system/bin/ and then flash. Report.

O2 UK Fix

Has anyone who had issues with O2 UK not automatically connecting and being unable to add APNs been able to fix it with these fixes?

I've tried several combos of 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and the RILs and have had no luck.

Desire HD?

I have a Desire HD and having trouble sending MMS using Jellytime R11 Android 4.2.2 based on CM.

Can I flash this for a Desire HD?

I only have the MMS problem, nothing else. Is flashing this mod & adding the build.prop line likely to fix my MMS not sending problem?
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Do not flash anything. It's not gonna work with Desire HD. But you may try adding the build.prop line it may help.
[HTC Sensation] alb0603:
Thanks for the reply Noobel. I did add the build.prop line, but alas, it did not solve my MMS problem :(
[HTC Sensation] Wibber:
HTC Sensation Battery Issue.

How do i update my firmware if the phone constantly says that my battery is too low?

It does not matter what battery i use, or how i charge it, even if i charge it for 12 hours.

in bootloader it says i'm low on power, when i go into 4ext it says i have ~8% battery left. then i charge it, and the % decreases instead of increases. I have an idea that it has something to do with my firmware, because i went from Albinoman's CM11 to Sultan's CM11, no change.

The battery does the same thing when i am just using my phone, it drains the battery in about 20 mins (with lowest light settings), and when i try to charge it, it also just decreases in %, goes to 0, starts back at 98% and starts decreasing again.

If I reboot the phone, then the battery says 4-45% and drains in 5 mins.

When the battery is drained, and i put it into my girlfriends Sensation, then the battery is almost full, and there is no problems..

Do you have any idea what I should do? :S
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
I'm not sure exactly what's the reason, but I do have couple of suggestions:

1) Check battery pins, make sure they are clean (for ex vodka + cotton buds can do) and actually straight enough to have a good contact with the battery.

2) If you're s-off flash firmware from the 1st post (keep phone connected to a charger)
[HTC Sensation] [Legenda]:
Hi!

I made the update! But into my bootloader on the top it's says "Locked" now...

Weird 'cause before the update it's said "3.33".

It's normal or i should be worried?
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Don't worry, that's ok. There's no patched/unlocked version of 1.29 bootloader, only an original one. You can flash 1.27 bootloader alone if you need it to be unlocked.

=)
[HTC Sensation] Wibber:
1) I tried that, and it makes no difference, I have even tried 3 different batteries.. The weird thing is, a battery can say that it is drained on my phone, and full when i put it into my girlfriends phone.

2) - I tried flashing firmware's, both with PC and Manually, Via PC (RUU-Manager) it will say that the battery is too low to continue.

Manually, i can "trick" the phone, by turning it off, charging it till it shows a green light, go straight into bootloader. then it can detect the PG58IMG.zip file without a problem. i start the install, the first thing it does is parse a new bootloader, then it reboots. and then we are back to square one, "Battery voltage too low! - Please change a battery..."

That's the behaviour, i can turn it on once, but as soon as i reboot, the bootloader will say that the battery is too low.
[HTC Sensation] derproblembaer:
Is it possible now, since there are multiple ION-based AOSP ROMS?
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Unfortunately I have no real chance to check that now, since my Sensation is with my cousin these days. If I'll ever get it back I'll surely make a check.

:cowboy:

If you are singed into the same account on the other phones or tablets that you want the apps on you can download it on the other devises and if you want all the data with them just use titanium backup that's what I do. Hope that helps ^_^

Hi @DJLamontagneIII Can I cherry-pick your commits for building kernel man? Cause the patches I applied to the kernel seems to screw my bootimage as my phone couldn't boot up (along with patches to the others were fine)

All the very best for your own thread my friend.. As such you were doing this job for a long time till now.. Thanks for all the support !!!

Good write up DJ. Self help/teaching method :) Thanks for this
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Sultanxda:
Hey [MENTION=1249390]DJLamontagneIII[/MENTION]. First of all, thanks for the very informational guide :D I was able to compile CM10.1 with Linaro for my phone (HTC Sensation) but it just hangs at the manufacturer splash for ~30 seconds then reboots into the recovery. I tried building with and without all the repos from your GitHub but it hasn't made a difference. I've also been building with the flags you're using but still no luck :( I've tried compiling with generic Linaro GCC 4.7 and 4.8 but the same thing happens with both. Any ideas for what I can do?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Neo:
swap your boot.img out with one from a working cm-10.1 rom for your device and if it works, then it obviously indicates that it has something to do with the kernel and how it was compiled. If that's the case, I would take a look at what prebuilt you're pulling from for armeabi
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Sultanxda:
I've already tried that, still doesn't boot :(. I've been building the kernel with linaro for a while (I also have a custom toolchain path set in kernel.mk) and I was running it on my phone for weeks, so it's definitely not the kernel (or ramdisk).
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DJLamontagneIII:
Have you tried lowering the flags to -O2... -O3 could be causing issues
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Sultanxda:
I'm already using -O2 because I'm using the flags from your GitHub :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Neo:
The problem with my device in particular, was modifying the prebuilt line indicated in build/core/combo/select.mk

change that back to the default (which I believe was pointing to 4.6) and rebuild... You'll be surprised.

However don't feel discouraged about changing that line back to 4.6 as the envsetup.sh is where the magic really happens and decides which prebuilts to use.

My phone went from splash to darkness for 30 seconds, and then a reboot back into recovery.. If that sounds familiar, make that one change in your select.mk and give it a rebuild.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Sultanxda:
That's what my phone is doing (splash to black screen to recovery) but it still doesn't boot after making the change. Just to make sure I did it right, do you have a commit I can see for the change you made in select.mk?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Neo:
I'm sorry buddy I told you the wrong file :(

It's in TARGET_linux-arm.mk

this is the original line:

TARGET_TOOLCHAIN_ROOT := prebuilts/gcc/$(HOST_PREBUILT_TAG)/arm/arm-linux-androideabi-4.6

as shown on the unmodified version here: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_build/blob/cm-10.1/core/combo/TARGET_linux-arm.mk#L46

Change that line in your modified build/core/combo/TARGET_linux-arm.mk to look identical to that, do a make clean, and rebuild with that change.

Actually, try doing it without a clean first and if it still doesn't boot, do a make clean and then try.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Sultanxda:
But TARGET_linux-arm.mk is what controls which toolchain builds the whole thing... :confused: I know that envsetup doesn't set the toolchain; I experimented a lot and found that TARGET_linux-arm.mk is what controls the toolchain for the whole thing. It makes sense that it booted for you because I think you built the whole ROM with the 4.6 toolchain.

EDIT: It might not have booted for me because my build machine is apparently messed up :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Neo:
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3812

Have a read. envsetup.sh is what decides the toolchain. That particular target should be left alone. At least for my device.
