[Q] Is there a GB ROM with working GPS

I ve tried one or Two Roms but they all seem to have Problems getting a GPS fix
just wondering if anyone uses GPS alot and knows of a working GB Rom

Maybe you can apply this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13710492&postcount=2987

Evey one I've used has been fine

sygic aura 3.0 works great with LeDrOiD 3.0.5, at least for me.

Can you tell me how to push this file like it mentions in the post.
Have been having problems with GPS since CM7 stable, never had problems with it before.

Radio?
10char

32.56.00.32u_5.17.05.23

Could be just the rom. I know that some roms don't work properly for everyone. Just keep trying roms and if they all fail, then check to see if your GPS is actually working properly.

GPS is fine on InsertCoin A2SD V29

Using Ginger Villain 2.3 in combination with radio 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08 and HTC-Ril_2.2.1.1003G no problem with the GPS.
I had a problem with GPS freeze but tried some different radios and get a fix in 30 seconds....

I think ALL Gingerbread ROM has a working GPS..I've tried a lot of ROM and it always works.

[Q] combination of rom+radio for HTC DHD which will not have issues

Hello I am looking for a combination of rom and radio with which I will not have issues. Something that has been tested and proven to be working. I am not looking for the newest thing, but for thing that simply works.
Thanks to everyone.

Rom and radio
Or Android Revolution HD 6.32 with 12.65.60.29U_26.14.04.28_M radio.

Sorry to bump this post but I have just bought a SIM free DHD but its got an annoying T Mobile splash screen. I have heard of flashing ROMs but what's a Radio. There a sticky on flashing ROMs nd Radios? And would putting in a new ROM make my phone a good old HTC. Can I get a ROM with Gingerbread.

PVTeam RunnyDroid v5 + 12.65.60.29U_26.14.04.28_M (And Lordmod CFS+ 5.0 Kernel)

All custom roms will have a bug or two. There is no prefect rom and there never will be. IF you want a rom that just works stay stock. This is not a rom site it is a development site. Which means we like bugs cause then we can learn to fix them on our own.

[Q] 2g network is not working on many stock based roms

I've tried many different roms, one of my favourite is light orange, a fast yet stable stock based rom. However, recently I have a 2g contract (before this I only use wifi for networking), sadly I found that even I turn on (using toggle / directly from the setting) the data (with / without the use 2g only option) I can't really connect to the network.
Later I tried several other roms including Adrenaline™ ROM (stock based), XperiaTized (should be stock based?), but the network was still not working (though other things such as call / sms worked flawlessly).
Meanwhile, CM based rom such as DebianDroid, CyanogenMod 7.2.0 RC1 Miracle Edition ( which is currently being used ) and even XperiaICS ( CM9 based ) work painlessly with the 2g network.
I want to know if my location (Hong Kong, China, Asia) matters for the 2g network problem. I really want to use stock based rom for lightweight, better battery and stability. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance
P.S. I factory reset and wipe cache, etc before flashing roms. But I don't think the way I flash rom matters because the CM based roms have no problems.
-- edited --
Due to some typo, I should clarify that 2g is NOT working on light orange either.

Now I switch to Enchanced236. The 2g data works finely but I don't know why the phone keeps rebooting after I restored apps using Go Backup

It's maybe because of deodexing problems. I don't know why there problems come up after deodexing, but have you had these issues with the ROM being Odexed?

Sorry but I don't know what you mean. Do you mean
1. roms that are originally odexed; OR
2. I have to odex the roms myself( is it possible ? )
If 1 is what you mean, it seems that most of the newly released custom roms are deodoxed, including CM7 I guess, so I should I find some old roms to test it? But with Enhanced236 ( deodexed ) I can have data, don't know why
If 2 is what you mean, how to do this?
Sorry I'm a newbie

Hmmmm
(Only Custom ROMs that are based on Stock might have these problems)
Well if the Custom ROM is poorly deodexed (not sure how) then the OP, has to re-deodex the ROM from scratch (Stock) and hopefully do it right this time. Then the OP adds the mods & tweaks.
If you go with #2, I think you'll still get the 2G problem :-\

So do you mean that if the custom ROMs are really poorly deodexed (which cause the 2g problem), I have nothing to do except (maybe) tell the ROM maker to fix it

Yeah, I guess so...
But it could be other problems. Not just deodexing
(But for me, it's most likely to be because of that. Because Stock ROMs are supposed to be stable. So if an issue like yours pops up, then I blame it on the deodexing process)

Maybe some of the restored apps or data are incompatible with something in the ROM. AFAIK, app restoring also keeps application data and some settings, not only apks.

I will try again to see if there are apps/data that cause the reboot problem. Your ROM is a smooth one that I like very much:good:
--added below--
I tried again and restored only necessary apps and data, now enhanced236 works like a charm!! Thanks so much again for such a great ROM!

[Q] RIL Confusion

Hi Everyone,
I'm a bit confused with RIL files and i would like to have some clarifications.
From what i am reading on sense roms needs to be flashed with RILs which i get. I currently have Radio 12.56.60.25U_26.10.04.03_M and i flash the Ril 12.56.60.25U_26.10.04.03_M when i'm using this ROM DHD_WWE_3.12.405.1_STOCK_rooted_by_nitr00. Ok, so for AOSP/AOKP/MIUI Roms i shouldn't need to install andy RILs correct? Just install the ROM and go, right? Also if i do want to try out Sabsa Prime v8.5 is there a new set of Rils that i need to use or do i use the Ril i was using before?
For people who have different brand phones other than HTC is there a Ril alternate that needs to be installed to match the radio or is it flash ROM and go?
Many thanks everyone. This have been stopping me from trialing out different Roms except for modified sense gingerbread roms like ARHD.

Only use RILs on ROMs that are both Sense and pre-ICS. For all other ROMs (like Sabsa Prime, which is ICS) you just flash the ROM and you're good.

Just to make it a little more understandable:
Every Rom needs a RIL;
But in many Custom Roms the Devs already build in the RILs;
The RIL must correspond with your Radio; if it doesnt, you will end up with no Reception;
See the quote below and the the related Thread for more detailed Information.
I just followed the discussion some days ago, cause I wanted to update My Desire HD to the latest Radio, and didn't wanted to brick my phone.
It's always better to understand why things behave like they do, instead of follow some instruction without being aware whats happening.
ShadowPony said:
I don't entirely agree with your statements.
EVERY ROM comes with a RIL. Period. No exception, otherwise the radio doesn't work.
For AOSP ROMs there is a RIL, but have not seen it apart from ROM.
With Sense everything gets weirder because HTC released a new RIL for almost any combination of Sense with OS (at least until ICS, where old RILs no longer function properly)
even with any sense ROM, you can only flash the baseband (radio), and if you have reception problems, then also go for the RIL
also, the latest radio with RIL is: 12.69.60.29_26.17.14.11_M

I use Sabsa Prime 8.5 on radio 12.65.60.29U_26.14.04.28_M without flashing any RIL. GPS and Phone works brilliant!

Right!!
your Rom has the RIL included...
my DHD runs on radio 12.69a.60.29U_26.17.14.11_M also without extra installing RIL...
cause it's included in my ROM by the Dev.

So if i don't want to update my radio what RIL should i use for my version? will the gingerbread Ril be used? and how about AOSP roms? I had be experiences updating the radio before. i've update radio + matching RIL and my phone cannot hold a call connection longer than 10mins.

Unless you have a GB Sense ROM, just use the RIL that came with the ROM.

No Signal After Flash

Hey guys, I try to do my research before posting (this is my first post) but I am stuck on this one.
I have:
PrimoU
Llior's CM9 Rom
Titanium Kiss kernel (ICS)
on Koodo (Canadian Provider)
Problem:
I was running the latest Hellboy kernel, but noticed I had better GPS signal with KISS, so I flashed back to KISS to see if It improved the GPS. It did, but now I have no service! I tried restoring to my last Nandroid, but still have the same problem.
WiFi works, but I have no cellular network connection. This is my daily use device so I would love to get some help on this one if anyone has some ideas. For now I am stuck texting on my old optimus one.
Confused!
Thanks in advance!

Well, like it's on: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1757323 for CM9, DONT FLASH THE BOOT.IMG INSIDE THE ZIP, and later, use Maxwen... - and that's a http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1954967
Also, on the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1765687, it is almost in the first row: IMPORTANT for CM users
If you want to use CM or a CM based ROM choose the correct kernel! CM9 needs a different ramdisk."
On DL web page: http://www.mediafire.com/?lo2ctaplonbdh you'll see a lot of kernels for CM9 - it's not always the latest on that will work with your phone. Try them...
Just courious - why are you on CM9?

I made sure not to flash the boot.img from inside the zip and always ensured I used a CM9 kernel which I flashed before installing a rom. I ran CM9 with the KISS kernel originally as it was what was recommended at the time. Upgraded to HELLBOY to try out new kernel features but reverted to see if the GPS worked any differently. (Tangent: It SEEMED to be better with KISS, but i could be wrong...)
I like CM9 for the stability and less glitchy video/pano modes, which I use often.
I have since gone back to square one.
Tried CM10 with CM10 hellboy. No signal
Tried CM9 with CM9 hellboy. No Signal.
I'm at a loss as to what could be the problem...

I don't know to much about other carriers, but does your phone require a sim?

Yes. It requires a sim.
Tried the sim in my old p500. Sim card works.

Power off the phone and remove the sim for some time(10~15mins).
It always works for me
Or,there may be a problem in the sim slot.

Thanks. Tried that, but no luck.
There is no way I could have messed with the radio or baseband by flashing a kernel, is there?

One more thing that you can try:
- flash stock rom
If you don't have signal with stock rom, might be hardware failure. If you still have warranty, just go and replace it...
