Hi,
I had problems to get my GPS working on my CM 7.1.0.1-buzz.
So I flashed the Radio to 13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25 and it began to work within seconds, if I started my Navigation and activated the GPS.
But..the "normal-provider-receiving" could be a bit better.
Is it recommend to install the latest radio to get a better receiving?

Thx & Greetz
It probably wont make much of a difference since you got GPS to work, but, you can try it out. It wont harm your phone. Also, you can look at this thread for an alternative:

I'm about to use RCMix HD and hopefully stick with it, I have no idea which radio to get though and I can't post in the thread itself yet, hopefully someone can give me an idea of what radio to get, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thankyou.
Hello,
I was under the impression that the RCmix 6.0.0.1 would come with the latest radio and matched RIL from the latest release that it is based off. I am new to ROMing so dont take my word for it though.
Please post back your results.
I've been using;
Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_test
RIL_12.35d.60.140f_26.08.03.07_M
its been the best that ive used so far (used it with RCMix HD v6 and with Android Revolution HD 5.1).

I think the RIL is included, i didnt think the radio was....then again i'm new to this whole thing as well!
I don't even know what an RIL is, haha, do I need one?
RIL stands for Radio Interface Layer. As i understand it the software that allows the rom to talk to the radio. I have also read that people have had successful results without updating the RIL. I havnt updated mine and it works fine.
The RIL is apparently only needed for sense ROMS (RCMix, CoreDroid, ARHD etc.). Non-sense roms (such as CM7) dont require a RIL.
As far as I know, a radio will still work without the matching RIL, but it just works better with the correct RIL
Any experiences of this new radio yet?
Also is there a new RIL implemented or is it still the old HTC-RIL 2.2.0028HM?

I guess since it still is the 32.56 release the RIL you mentioned should work fine.

I can just say that for now battery life is excellent ...39h - on 61% with "normal" use. GPS, WIFI, Bluetooth and data works ok.
P.S. I'm on MIUI 1.5.6 rom
No poblem here ... I'm on RcMix S 1.4 .
There is no newer RIL coming from Desire , there are several from Desire HD and S , didn't tried them .
All looking good here, Telus Desire, Reflex S 1.9.9.9 Lite

Nice thx i try
Doesn t work with latest Ril
Is more difficult to take Hspa!!!
it's just me??
So if I just installed the latest CM7 (7.0.3), will installing a later radio improve anything? I dunno what version comes with CM7 but the call quality is pretty crap, although I think thats just the area I live in.
My current radio version is 5.11.05.27.
EDIT: Heres the full info from baseband:
32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27
Flashed RIL_2.2.1003G with 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23.
I'm on 80% battery after 15 hours light use.
Got the fastest Speedtest result I've ever had. Seems to be functioning well.
instaled on lee 3.06 rc2 without any problem...
reception and GPS seem to be ok
Hi, is it necessary to flash the RIL too?

A silly question, if i were to flash the radio only, i don't have to do a full-wipe right?

No you dont
I originally had LeeDriod ROM on my Desire which worked well, and WiFi was always showing 3 bars (full) when at home. Now I've tried Oxygen and Gingervillian, which I like but only get 1 or 2 bars on WiFi at best (Oxygen seems to be the worst though I like the ROM.
I'm currently on MIUI ROM but only get 2 bars max. Does this mean that I should change my Radio? I'm confused by radios and wouldn't know what to change to if this is what I need to do.
My current radio is 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2
Any suggestions please?
Try to update to the latest and see.
Radio
RIL
I'm running the latest radio with HTC-RIL 2.2.1003G and got very good connections (gingervillain)
:/ What's the difference between Radio and RIL?
(Thanks for the reply btw)
EDIT: Found the answer to this now
Hello awesome crowd,
I flashed my DHD to CyanogenMod 7.1.
One day on it, I noticed idle radios were eating serious battery, so I decided to update to the latest available from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877295
Flashed the radio, then installed the RIL, all seemed to run smooth, until reboot. When no GSM was available anymore.
Please help me fix the radio
Missed to say that Settings>About is reading "Baseband Version UNKNOWN".

Maybe try re-flashing your ROM (without wiping)? I'm guessing you've flashed an HM RIL which are meant for Sense ROMs.

God bless you, hopscotchjunkie for the fast response.
I did as suggested and my GSM is back. May not be brilliant on the battery but hey - still working
more complicated
I found this threat's got a similar issue as mine, unless it displays the correct baseband as what I wanted to flash to it, the. Thing is it's only able to connect to 3g network, 2g network are still indicating no service although the signal got full bars, can you guys tell me what I purpose to do??

RIL is just for sense based roms. AOSP roms do not need RIL, so changing it will mess it up. You can flash a radio but that's it.
Re: Cyanogen > Flashed Radio + RIL, now no more GSM (No Service)
Do you ever need to flash rils coming from a cm based rom to sense based? Because as I recall,sometimes the dev has said a ril is included with the rom?

Hello all,
I am having issues after installing CM10 stable on my T989. My GPS doesn't lock and can never find my location.
I am sure this is a radio issue, but not sure what the best radio is for this rom / device. Also, can I install the radio without having to reinstall CM10?
If someone can please recommend me a radio, that would be great. Thanks :laugh:

Thanks for the reply. I installed the T989UVLI4 radio and everything has been working great! I tested my GPS today and it was perfect in CM10.
I also need to mention that I was having GPS problems because by default, CM10 had all the location services off by default. So if anyone is having the same issue, go to you're system settings, then location services and turn them all on.
I have the same problem GPS doesn't lock in CM 10 for me too I use Optimus Black
