Personally I haven't found any tangible differences between the 5.X radios either in battery life or in signal quality.

I don't think that the radio plays that much of a role in battery consumption. Or the RILs for that matter.

So since we don't have a changelog for those things I always prefer the latest and greatest version because *hopefully* HTC has incorporated some tweaks for network compatibility and the like.
[Desire Android Development] System of a pWne!^:
Ok, either it's the HTC-RIL 2.2.1001G or the 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08 radio, but with both in combination, I barely can use WiFi. It is just constantly connecting/disconnecting. I will go back to the 1.6 Radio of CM7 instead and test it. The corresponding RIL for 5.17 is sadly unsuable for me (Disconnects all dats when screen goes off).
[Desire Android Development] System of a pWne!^:
The best Radio concerning battery and reception was the 32.47.00.32U_5.10.05.23 for me. Lately, I've been moving to newer radios and rils but it just resulted into many problems as reception-loss or less battery.
[Desire Android Development] crapula512:
where can i get the HTC-RIL 2.2.0144HMQ (Mar 31 2011,11:44:35) / HTC Pyramid (Sensation)? saw it in the first post as a known ril but haven't found any link to it.
[Desire Android Development] adwinp:
Here's 2.2.1003G http://www.mediafire.com/?m00ubnhm3dc7prp

And here's 2.2.0144HMQ http://www.mediafire.com/?wwl2nqwjdk12ufb
[Desire Android Development] adwinp:
Use HM rils with Sense roms, and G rils with AOSP roms.

Try the new 2.2.1003G I've uploaded.
[Desire Android Development] :
That could explain a lot I have read in this and other threads, myself I have now have excellent battery life and good signal strength with the 17 radio and 1001G RIL.

Is that distinction something you have found by experience, or is that the way the various RILs are intended for use?

[Desire Android Development] cez10:
havent heard of this RIL, it has different structure than the 0001G RIL, different size, and is in unflashable 7z format

do you see anything strange here?

:rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] rkuijpers:
For me both RIL's don't work. Unzipped them both and rezipped them to zip, installed in recovery after mounting system, but my RIL did not change, still 0.99.

Using Leedroid 2.3d, because the newer roms still don't cut it quite like 2.3d does in my opinion.
[Desire Android Development] System of a pWne!^:
I'm on CM7 (AOSP) so this might explain why the 1001HM didn't work for me.

Giving 2.2.1003G a try. Thank you.
[Desire Android Development] System of a pWne!^:
It's an unflashable 7z container which only contains the RIL files, and that even without any information where to put them. You have to make your own flashable zip file and put the files to the correct locations.
[Desire Android Development] System of a pWne!^:
I packed HTC-RIL 2.2.1003G (Nov 2 2010,17:17:45) to a flashable zip (only use this with AOSP ROMs)

Tested with CM7 and the latest 5.17 RADIO so far (HSPA,GSM,WiFi,GPS,Camera,BlueTooth all works.) Wonderfull battery.
[Desire Android Development] gippy2:
Thanks for zipping this, seems to be working fine with latest radio and oxygen 2.0.3. I haven't had chance to test bluetooth and wi_fi yet.

Edit - Everything working
[Desire Android Development] eXDee:
Flashed 2.2.1003G, from a few minutes of extremely unscientific testing, 3G signal appears to be better (usually i get poor/no signal in these places)
[Desire Android Development] zikyHD:
I must test it with rc6. I tested ril of this radio on rc5 without any problem. I m going to test it on rc6...

[Desire Android Development] komarov74:
Hi,

what is a RIL Radio ?

Whats the difference between a normal Radio ?
[Desire Android Development] rootrider:
Had your problems this afternoon. Did you check if your APNs were still there? Mine wasn't. Some time ago somebody offered a list of APNs here. This one could be helpful.

I solved the problem this way:

I reflashed Oxygen 2.0 RC6 (the connection was back after reboot)

I reflashed the radio

I reflashed the RIL

-> things work still fine for me since, also I can't explain the reason why... :o
[Desire Android Development] zikyHD:
read here ;)
[Desire Android Development] komarov74:
Thanks, but i dont get it :D

Can you list me some pros and stuff ?
[Desire Android Development] zikyHD:
Well..

Wipe all....done!

Flash Oxygen RC6...done!

Boot the first time....done!

Reboot to recovery and flash the RIL linked to the radio 05.27...done!

Try to switch off/on the screen a lot of time...connection stay active.

I don't know what to do more...:confused:
[Desire Android Development] zikyHD:
In fact, RIL and Radio are two completly differents things...

The RIL is like a package of drivers for radio which manage the communication between the rom & the radio part.
[Desire Android Development] Ninolina:
Where can I get this newest radio? I havent seen that anybody on this forum anounced that this Radio version came out..
[Desire Android Development] Sylde:

Yes i've seen this pb ..i must update all my packages to edify scripting! I ll do it asap.

Tks for your report!
[Desire Android Development] Orphee:
Hi,

Does the RIL modification disable the possibility to use Adhoc with ROM like Oxygen ?

Or it can still work ?

Thank you :)
[Desire Android Development] Daelyn:
I never really found the time to do it myself, so I greatly appreciate this.
[Desire Android Development] Daelyn:
It only updates the hardware drivers and adhoc lies elsewhere in the system.

Why not test? Flash the RIL, if it stops ad-hoc for you, just reflash the ROM on top and the RIL will be back to the ROM default.
[Desire Android Development] zikyHD:
You're welcome! ;-)
[Desire Android Development] System of a pWne!^:
Now after testing 2.2.1003G for a few hours I have to say that battery-drain is low and I do not get the WiFi connection-issues anymore I had on 2.2.1001G.

GPS seems to work slower than on 1.6 but this could just have been some random result.

I will stay with 2.2.1003G in combination with 5.17 RADIO and CM7 final.
[Desire Android Development] adwinp:
I assumed that people reading a RIL thread were at least knew where to replace the blobs.

In any case:

Use 2.2.0144HMQ only with Sense roms

2.2.1003G with AOSP roms.

All in all, the 2.2.1003G seems to have fixed most issues with the previous version (network signal dropping, 3G/WiFi dropping).

If you have issues with your GPS, make sure your AGPS data is getting correctly pulled.
[Desire Android Development] CamoGeko:
2.2.1003G works for me like a charm ;)
[Desire Android Development] System of a pWne!^:
Not everyone is that familiar with it. The OP just has a bunch of different RILs in it and it doesn't even tell you to flash G only to AOPS and the HM to Sense ROMs. Also it has flashable ZIPs.

Anyway, I packed your binaries and they work, thanks.
[Desire Android Development] rkuijpers:
Well, maybe it's just me, but until now I was able to install all RIL's without a problem. At least the RIL's I tried from the first page, among others.

So I guess only repacking the RIL's from 7z into a zip is not enough to install them using recovery?

Could anyone repack 2.2.0144HMQ so it will install in recovery, please?

Thanks in advance!
[Desire Android Development] meno69:

[Desire Android Development] System of a pWne!^:
I also can confirm this. Best reception so far and very well battery (3G + background-syn enabled) => 6 hours, 7% battery lost

[Desire Android Development] rkuijpers:
Thank you very much!

Going to flash it now, will report back!
[Desire Android Development] rkuijpers:
Strange, as I was flashing it, it said it was 2.2.1003 ?

No network connection after reboot, wifi worked after restarting it, but no gsm or 3g.

You're sure you did use .0144 in the package?

I had to reflash .099 to get my gsm and 3g working again...
[Desire Android Development] AlxMAX:
HTC-RIL_2.2.1003G in an installable form (in the recovery). I have only packaged the files provided by adwinp, I have modified zikyHD installer script (I have added a command to unmount the /system partition after all the operations are finished and more messages about what's happening) but I haven't installed them. I must emphasize what adwinp has said: the RIL should be used with the AOSP ROMs. If someone thinks the package should be withdrawn (copyright, ownership claims, misplaced file etc), just let me know.
[Desire Android Development] System of a pWne!^:
It was just a print in recovery which I forgot to change. 2.2.0144 should be installed. Check it with the RIL Infos Utility of ZikyHD.

I just fixed that print.
[Desire Android Development] rkuijpers:
The RIL Infos Utility showed blank RIL, and blank radio, unfortunately!

I never saw that happen before, all other RIL's and radios I have tried worked for me except this one. Strange.

I'll try it once more, although I can't imagine I did something wrong last time...

Again wifi working like a charm, as I'm connected to it now. But no gsm or 3g network.

Also RIL's info utility shows no radio, and no RIL.

Something must be off, but I really have no idea why the other RIL's for sense work without a problem, only this one doesn't :-(

Back to 0.99 for now, as this RIL till now works best with push notifications for me. With 0.121 and 0.131 push notifications weren't reliable enough...

But many thanks for your efforts! If you want to try again, I'll gladly flash it!

[Desire Android Development] themono:
Have you changed your HBOOT from stock? It's referring to space in the cache partition, which with several custom HBOOT's is only 5MB. If you're using one of them, you'll have to flash via fastboot.

OMG thank you!, i am using CM7 HBoot, So do i have to flash via fastboot?

if so how?
[Desire Android Development] CamoGeko:
LOL...gotta love the forum search :p

"You can however flash the radio just fine with 'fastboot flash radio radio.img'. Just extract the radio.img from the radio update.zip beforehand."

[Desire Android Development] Klefisch:
Hi there,

I am quite new to this so please excuse the following questions. I have update my Desire Bravo to CM 7.0.2 and updated the radio to 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08.

Afterwards I found this fred and checked my RIL with the smal apk provided with the first post. I have HTC-RIL 1.6.1062G.

Now my concrete question:

Do I have to update my RIL? If yes what is the correct version?

This one?

[GINGERBREAD] HTC-RIL 2.2.0028HM (Sep 20 2010,22:33:44) (implemented with radio 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08)

Or can I use a newer one from the Desire S?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Greetings,

Klefisch
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
You don't have to update your RIL - if it's all working to your satisfaction, then it's OK already.

If you want to try a different RIL and see whether anything improves, then others have posted recently in this thread that the "HM" RILs are for Sense ROMs, so with CM7 you should be using a "G" RIL. However, I do see people whose sigs say they are using AOSP ROMs with HM RILs, so it clearly does work for them. So you could try it and see.

Personally I'm using the 2.2.1003G RIL from this post with GingerVillain 2.1, which is very similar to CM7, together with the 32.54.00.32U_5.04.05.17 radio (slightly older than yours) and it's working fine.
[Desire Android Development] Klefisch:
Thanks a lot for the info.

Gonna try out the version you posted.

But this stuff is really not easy, nowhere is written that HM is for sense and G is for AOSP. By the way are these letters just belong to the version number or to they stand for anything?
[Desire Android Development] Andreas75k:
Thanks, just installed it and it works fine. I'm on CM7 at the moment. Can't say that I notice much difference, but I like always having latest versions installed...
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
I'm sure they stand for something, but no idea what.

As for the sense vs aosp bit, I just know what others have posted in this thread. Playing with RILs has lagged in popularity behind ROMs and Radios ;)

The good thing is that if a RIL causes problems it's no big deal to replace: flash a different one, restore your nandroid or reflash the ROM, any of those will overwrite it.
[Desire Android Development] meno69:
This is what I was saying. Just came from nowhere and everyone is installing it but didn't ask where it came from?
[Desire Android Development] CamoGeko:
Does it really matter that much?? I've been using the latest 2.2.1003G RIL with CM7 for like 3 days now and have had no problems whatsoever. Even had better signal and battery drainage.

Its like the latest Desire HD radio, no one knows where it originated from but a lot of people have tested it and most of them found out that its better than most of other radios.

In the end of the day, its all up to you to take a risk or stick with the tried and tested.

:cool:

Is it really the ril which drains battery in low-reception areas, or the radio? I've been trying the 2.2 G one and not sure if it's that which drains battery or the 32.56 radio
[Desire Android Development] CamoGeko:
Strange, I use to get almost no signal in my flat. With the new radio/ril its been fantastic (no excessive drain at all).

In combination with wich kernel to receive this great battery stats?

[Desire Android Development] CamoGeko:
Use LorDmod's CM7 kernel found here:

http://www.multiupload.com/ZZHYEOKSVR (this is version 4.5.2, which I am using) (don't use 4.6 because it has a WiFi bug at the moment).

I also get more battery life by lowering voltages after flashing kernel:

[Desire Android Development] Sleehond:
Thanks for your reply Geko95gek!

But the kernel is not working here. When I'm installing the kernel, it seems to be fine, but in the end part it sais: installation aborted.

What could be the problem?

My device specs at the moment:

HTC Desire, radio 5.17.05.08, cyanogenmod 7.0.2.1, clockworkmod 2.5.0.7 + the RIL you have mentioned erlier ;)

I do apologize, but as far as I know lorDmod's kernel is only for Desire HD :)
[Desire Android Development] meno69:
Not once has adwinp stepped forward and mentioned the source of any of his RILs! WTF.
[Desire Android Development] cez10:
perhaps a leak from a source that could get him sacked if they found out :P

Radio 5.17.05.23 is out - RIL for this is 2.20028HM.
[Desire Android Development] Cactus42:
Can someone explain why RIL's never work for me? Tried various radio's, ROM's and RIL's from the latest and greatest to the ones recommended for working together. Sense ROM's, Froyo ROM's, Gingerbread ROM's or any permutation thereof:

I install a ROM, signal is fine until I install a RIL - in which case it works perfectly until the first screen lock, after unlocking there is no signal and I'll have to reboot the phone to get it back. If I reflash the ROM it will work again.
[Desire Android Development] System of a pWne!^:
Only flash H Rils to Sense ROMs and G Rils to AOSP Roms. Otherwise you encounter the problems you just posted about.
[Desire Android Development] Cactus42:
That I understand, but it's never worked since way back in the early days of OpenDesire and DeFrost. I've got the latest radio (from this thread, not the just leaked one) and DevNull at the moment. All of the Gingerbread RIL's do the same. Tried it with Oxygen, and with RCMixS yesterday (tried Sense and GB RIL's with that one). I'm not having major signal/GPS/Wifi issues, but I thought it may give improvements.

Edit: Should mention mine is a very early Desire - PVT1 from May 2010
