baseband query - Hero, G2 Touch Android Development

i've flashed a number of radios to my gsm hero, all the raio versions end with a U as in xxx.xxx.xx.eu/xxx.xxx.xx.iu/xxx.xxx.xxx.xxju
currently just flashed the ju radio, but now when i view the baseband version in the settings menu in either modaco or the new kugadroid roms the baseband says 63.18.55.06jh_6.35.08.29
is there anything causin this, or is this normal behaviour?
reason i'm asking is i'm having some wifi problems and trying to locate the cause
(currently turning on wifi on the kugadroid rom causes the rom to reboot, but when i first flashed the baseband said ju, and worked, now it's says jh and reboots the phone)

this happened to me aswell. flashed JU, then suddenly it read JH. if you flash JU again it should read JU again. sorry can't help with your problems, luckily i *never* had any problems with radio whatsoever...

yeah, but it's not just with ju radio, also happens with iu radio and fu radio too.
baseband keeps saying ih,fh or jh (depending on the radio rom)
would love to know what is causing it.
could it be by any chance having the newer spl posted by modaco on nov 24th causing this issue?

not sure. i have the spl too, and it happened to me only once. then again i don't flash radio unless there is a newer version or a rom forces me to use a specific version.

same here. only flash radio rom to update or if new rom requires it.
and now, here's the thing, i flashed with the FU radio earlier, and it's remaining as FU (which is good) but i'm stll getting issues with WiFI -- mainly messages like " Unable to start Wi-Fi", or "Unable to stop Wi-Fi"
it's rather frustrating and i can't seem to find the source of the issue at all.

Well, I have used that radio for a long time with several ROMs and did not encounter any problems at all. You might try reflashing the radio (as it does not involve any data loss) and if problem still persists try switching to another radio version or ROM.
My two cents ....

Based on my experience, the 1.46 radio ROM is extremely stable.
I did have problems with the karmba_a 6.2 ROM freezing on me, which has never happened with any other ROM before.
The freezing may be due to either the ROM itself or by a conflict with third-party applications, I wasn't able to identify which ....
I'd be inclined to try another ROM as my primary solution. If the problem persists, I'd reflash the 1.46 or look at another radio ROM, as tnyynt suggested.

[q] gps not working?

I have a ATT TP2/Stock Radio and have been flashing ROMs for a long time... I recently flashed to the latest ENERGY rom and after a day or so the weather for "My location" quit updating?
I figured it was a bug so I flashed to another one of his ROMs. (I always have used his ROMs from my 1st flash) The phone will not find a GPS signal to update my location. I went back to a tried and true oldler version of Energy, which worked in the past and still no "My location" weather?
Google maps cannot locate any satilites either?
I flashed back to 1st ATT stock ROM loaded google map, searched my location and it worked... So they phone is still working properly.
Flashed back to ENERGY ROM and back again to no "My location" weather or google map GPS?
I have tried everything I can think of please help...
Perhaps you have already done it, but have you performed a task 29? If not try that, then flash your rom.
Both the My Location and GPS issues are discussed (with possible solutions) in the Energy ROM FAQs, Post 6 (of the Energy ROM thread) Section 3 "Solutions to Issues":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4579513&postcount=6
"My Location" is derived from cell tower information, not GPS. Issues with My Location may be a function of the cell tower at your local area, either low signal strength, or just not passing the proper info to your phone. If you travel to a location a few miles away (or farther) do you still get no location?
I have the ATT Tilt2, same as you, and have flashed Energy ROM many times (including most recently Oct. 8), and have never had an issue with either My Location or GPS. There are some ATT-specific solutions you can try, listed in the FAQ. Also, updating to the newer radio (one shown in my signature) may help.
Will do...
I do perform Task 29- Thanks for the reply
I will read more about the it from the Energy thread. Thanks for the reply...
That is the ROM I started having issues with.
OCT.8 Cookie Rom- Flashed and just like normal everything was fine. Drove out on a job for work and everything was good, later got back to my shop in and looked at the phone and it was stuck on the other city,kinda like it hadnt updated since. Tried to update and it just would time out? So I Hard reset the phone and it never loaded the My Location... Full signal indoors and out.
One of the guys I work with has a TP2 as well and he asked me if google was working. I tried to locate me on the map and it says "Your location is temporary not avial." When I try to update the weather from the tab it says "No updates are avail."
I dont know? Im downloading the new ATT ROM now and will, see what it does.
I was told that it will update my radio.
Ive never flashed my radio, and dont know much about it or what exactly it does to upgrade it. I am going to try to read more tonight when I get off work.
Thanks, If your have any inputs/questions I will get back ASAP...
Dont know?
Well the new ATT ROM is on the phone working fine...? As soon as it booted the weather on the Sense popped up with my city... I cant figure out why other roms arent working.
Im going to flash again to Energy soon... Maybe tonight or tomarrow; Battery is dead and have to let it charge. Besides Ive flashed some many times im tired of messing with it.
If anyone has any ideas on what my issue may be please help.
Thanks-

The stock ROM works fine because it does all the work for you. It preforms a task29 as part of the process. If you don't know what that is, it's a tool that erases and formats the internal memory of the device. It also flashes the radio and the ROM in the same program. Basically, all of the things you needed to do on a custom ROM, it does for you on the stock ROM.
BEFORE putting another ROM on your device, preform a task29 (search for it in the Rhodium ROM dev section), then flash the ROM. After that, read the FAQ in post #6 of the Energy thread. If that doesn't answer your question, then ask about it in that thread.
BEFORE posting a question in the Energy thread, be sure to read the FAQ. There is a correct way to ask for help there.
IDK, This is wierd
I do know about task29 and perform it before every flash.
So Stock ROM V.2 was working on "My Location" and Google Map... So I was looking around for .Cabs to clean the Stock ROM up and noticed that ENERGY had posted some new ROMS and I downloaded one. I Task29'd and flashed to the new Energy ROM, No fix on Google and weather "My Location" still unable to update or even find my location...?
Task29'd and went back to Stock ROM V.2 and now I'm having the same issue with the stocker?
Does anyone know what could possibly causing this issue? I don't ever get into the Registry or anything. I just flash and go adding the basic .Cabs
I'm at a loss... I would really hate to replace the phone due to this. Everything else works fine it just seems to be a GPS issue...
Any help would be greatly apperciated.
Thanks in advance-- I hope

This to me would seem to indicate that it might be an issue with the cell towers and not your phone, if it works in some locations and not others. Its a pretty common issue, that's why its on the FAQs. For months, my phone would not retrieve the location information from the cell tower near my office, despite 4 bars of reception. But it works fine almost anywhere else. Next time you are driving to other locations, experiment and see if it works better in other towns.
The time out message for weather just means it can't get the weather info over the data connection, it doesn't refer to My Location. The HTC weather server has issues from time to time, so this may have nothing to do with your phone.

If you are running Energy ROM, then the solution to your My Location problem is listed in post #6 of that thread. The easiest solution is to simply disable 3G. My Location is determined from the Cell Towers, not the device. If this solution doesn't work for you, then that narrows the problem down to something you've installed on the device. Try the solutions listed first. If that doesn't work, install a program like Sprite Backup to create an image of your device so you don't loose anything. After backing up, flash the stock ROM and see if, without installing or changing anything, you have the same problem. If it's working like this, then install things one-by-one until you find the culprit.

Flashing the radio is super easy. If you've already flashed ROM, flashing the radio is basically the same process, except it only takes a several seconds. It updates the software on your phone that allows it to connect with the cell network. It resides on a separate part of the memory than the OS, so it usually is not affected by ROM flashes (and vice versa, flashing the radio does not affect the ROM). The newer official ATT ROM is an exception, where they packed the radio in with the ROM. So now your radio is updated to the newest ATT radio. Flashing custom Rhodium GSM ROMs from XDA won't affect the radio, unless specifically indicated otherwise (and I haven't seen any custom ROMs that do that).

There are a couple of custom ROMs that flash radio as well. I don't recall which, but be sure and look before flashing!

Thanks, good to know. Of course, we always read the ROM instructions thoroughly before flashing!
Narrowed Down...
Thanks to all that have helped so far...
Ok after reading the last few post I have somewhat narrowed down the issue.
Okay, Yesterday I flashed the New ATT ROM so I have the upgraded radio-
Discouraged after I lost the "My Location" with the stock ROM and its differences between Energy(I guess I got spoiled by it) I flashed back to a later version of Energy.
CajunFlavoredbob- Thanks for recommeneding me to try disabling 3G and see if it works. Well it did, I dropped to the Edge network full signal and it picked up pretty quick both on "My Location" Weather and Google... Switched back to 3G and issue came back.
So I read post#6 from the Energy forum and one user says for him he used
"FF ATT Nokia aGPS Settings" I am using something I think is similar to that it is "FF Google aGPS Settings Generic" but I guess its not work aswell as it should or at all? So I am going to try to find this other .Cab and install it and see if this works.
Somewhat narrowed down, with the issue but feel like I am getting somewhere
Thanks to all for help so far! I will keep you guys updated...
No luck...
Okay well I got 3 .Cabs from I believe Fone Fanatic and another one from this guy I work with and no luck?
Any other ideas on what I can do?

[Q] Random freezes with ReflexTSenseHD 1.8

I have had freezes after installing the ReflexTSenseHD 1.8 ROM. I cannot seem to find any correlation in those.
Have had it frozen during calls, randomly in the pocket, while connected to usb etc. The only way to get it working is removing the battery.
Sometimes the lights of the buttons stay on and sometimes not.
One time it had frozen either during a call or right after it ended.
I've tried
32.47.00.32U_5.10.05.23 and
32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 radios and both the default kernel
925mV -NeoPhyTe-2.6.32.28-Halcyon_HAVS.925_CFS_SLQB_VR_v38 and the non-UV kernel
1000mV -NeoPhyTe-2.6.32.28-Halcyon_HAVS.1000_CFS_SLQB_VR_v38.
I've tried setting the freq to min=max=998 with setCPU, uninstalling autokiller and setting up the phone from scratch instead of using Titanium backup.
I did notice that my RIL version is 2.2.0031HM....could this be a problem since as i found from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=902752 the radio might not be supported through this RIL. I did not find any info on this RIL version also.
Is there anything i could try? Could i use logcat to get more info from the phone? The problem is that i'm not competent enough to read those logs.
Any help really appreciated.
That RIL is for the latest radio (in my signature) Try the latest radio & see if that helps.

I'm sorry, i don't see any link to radio in your signature. And i couldn't find it through search and google etc.
I have currently downgraded the RIL to HTC-RIL 2.2.0015HM which should be
32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_RIL based on this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=902752
This radio version is at least suggested to use on the ReflexTSenseHD thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=791315
I also didn't restore anything from Titanium Backup this time and i removed AutoKiller. Will test for a couple of days to see if it helped now and post here the results.
A little search in the Desire Android Developement section, and you find the radio thread.
2. The suggested radio is outdated.
But if you downgraded, it should help.

Sorry again, i read that thread but i wasn't sure what RIL it should work against. But hopefully this downgrade does it for me. If not i will try the newest RIL with newest Radio.
Thanks a lot.
Just had a series of crashes with the downgraded rom and RILs. Will try out the new ones. Although i do not understand which RIL should be used for the latest radio from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=687464
Any info on that?
The RIL is included in the ROM for the latest version.
TBH, I never flashed RILs and got working everything (always).

I understood also that RIL is a longshot for fixing it. But i have no other ideas at the moment. On next crash i will try to do logcat -b radio. Hopefully there is something interesting there.
Installed LeeDroid ROM now. Lets see if it works with the same radio and everything. I also have the app2d+ set up through ROM Manager and with swap. Maybe should try removing the swap.
I've had two more crashes with LeeDroid. After the first one i uninstalled setCPU and fixed permissions in ROM Manager. Now just had a second one and connected the dead device to adb and did logcat -b radio and logcat. This is what i got. Any ideas what those could be about?
I have downloaded the WWE RUU. Will try to get a microsd to sd adapter, make a goldcard and then try it.
It seems that iNsertCoin 1.9.5 is stable on my phone. Over a week with it and no problems whatsoever. I seem the share the problem that some other people have been having with this rom though. It seems to get a lot slower over time. So i might still end up trying the RUU. Or does anyone have any other suggestions for a good Sense or SenseHD rom that might work for me(share something in common with iNserCoin)?

Couple of issues with Wifi/Radio updates

So I recently installed MIUI, and as soon as I did my Wifi radio stopped working. Every time I try to switch it, it turns back off and says "error."
I figured this was a problem with my radio (26.02.01.15_M2) when I found another irksome problem. When I go to flash PC10IMG.zip the bootloader gets to "Checking PC10IMG.zip) and then quits and refuses to attempt the update.
Any ideas?
I apologize if this question has been asked, but I couldn't find anything similar in the short search I did.
Thanks in advance!
Could be a bad download? Which Radio are you trying to flash?
Download the radio from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970809
Dont know what ROM you are running but Vision_Radio_12.52. 60.25_26.08.04.30 seems to be a good one,download the attached file for wiping the EFS(Important when flashing radios)
The link has further instructions and information,hope that helps
Hey, thanks for your response! I actually tried three different Radios from that thread (the first three), and none of them worked. I ran an efs wipe yesterday because I was having GPS problems, and these problems persisted after that...
FWIW, when I flash other kernels/ROMs, things work fine (CM7, PyroMod, Stock) but on MIUI these problems crop up.

Do you mean you can update the radio with other ROMs or do you mean that the wifi problem is only on MIUI?If your problem is only with MIUI cant help as I dont use that ROM but still doesnt explain your problem with flashing a radio as the bootloader is independent of the ROM
I think the wifi radio and the cellular radio are different and when you flash the radio firmware, it only updates the cellular radio firmware. Someone more knowledgable than me will probably correct me. It's probably something screwy with the MIUI roms which is effecting you. If you want to use MIUI then try one of the other MIUI roms that are out there and also notify the developer of the MIUI rom your using about your issue.
I hate the recent radios for G2 latest one from Bell sucks. Signal drops every few seconds, data connection is just OK. Very disappointed. I did the efs wipe and auto ril matcher V6 and all this other bs and I hate it.

[Q] Phone restarts when using 3G (GSM/WCDMA)

Hi XDA people,
This is my first post in XDA and its a problem i am facing. Whenever i switch to GSM/WCDMA Mode and start using the 3G internet, the phone restarts with 5 - 7 vibrating alerts. I did searched this forum before posting and got similar posting for HTC Buzz

Went through that and found out that by updating the radio this problem can be fixed, so went ahead to find the udpated radio and hboot and updated them using RUU, got a tutorial for the same in XDA forums
So updated Radio from 7.53.39.03M to 7.54.39.28M
Hboot : 1.08.0000
But the problem is still there, as soon as i switch it to 3G mode, i can see the H symol comes up for the GPRS and the network changes to R (Roaming- no clues why this happens but i am fine with this as long it works.) and within minutes it restarts making 5-7 vibrating alerts before rebooting.

it happened to me, the only solution I found was flash the backup of my original Rom Sense PREROOT, turn on 3G and check that it worked.
Then without turning off the 3G flash another rom clean (a bit like the problem of the gps).
is a bit long but I was going crazy, my Willy sometimes restarted.
it may be useful with my HTC Buzz it worked ... but you're rooted?

I read in the forums that in HTC buzz if you update to an older radio then wipe cache then update to a higher radio version it fixes it, but i need to find out if that would work for MARVEL, and what would be versions that i should switch to.

Well, I don't know anything about the Marvel. Both phones are quite different besides their names and enclosure.
Anyway I don't think that your phones radio will be touched when flashing a ROM or restoring a nandroid backup or that you could wipe, clear or format your radio partition - so in theory it could work with the Marvel, too.
A short explanation about the whole thing: The Buzz has well known issues with the radio (no GPS or BT, WiFi probs) - even directly after rooting and flashing the first custom ROM. There's also a chance that something might go wrong or get messed up when flashing different ROMs, installing tweaks etc. and the problem is that the radio resides on a separate partition which can't be wiped or formatted. All this sounds pretty logical to me but I'm not a developer so I might be totally wrong
The solution seems to be to flash a different radio (older/newer doesn't matter) to "overwrite" the current one - and sometimes reflash the current ROM again.
The problem I had has been hard to spot and even harder to solve. Luckily I found out that switching on 3G initiated the reboots (after quite a while and by accident, really). I made a lot of tests and could put it down to that (WiFi, 2G had no probs - phone rebooted only when switching to 3G or switching on data when 3G has been activated/chosen).
Furthermore I found the "solution" by accident, too: I reflashed the current radio without any success. Then I also tried an older radio - no success. So, as a final attempt, I started to download a RUU to reset the phone to factory condition.
The download server has been awful slow - it took ages to download the file - so I (almost randomly) decided to flash the previous radio again.
I couldn't believe it: that did the trick. (Luckily) I rebooted again, switched on data and 3G and noticed that the phone didn't reboot anymore.
So if you're able to flash a different radio - just give it a try. For the Buzz you need to be S-OFF to flash a radio - no idea about your phones.
I'd be glad if that would work for the Marvel, too :fingers-crossed:
I found this tread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1485345
if you do not solve in any other way you could give it a try
I do not know the Marvel, but the Buzz htc are not all the same, the same solution to different results :silly:

Furthermore I found the "solution" by accident, too: I reflashed the current radio without any success. Then I also tried an older radio - no success. So, as a final attempt, I started to download a RUU to reset the phone to factory condition.
The download server has been awful slow - it took ages to download the file - so I (almost randomly) decided to flash the previous radio again.
I couldn't believe it: that did the trick. (Luckily) I rebooted again, switched on data and 3G and noticed that the phone didn't reboot anymore.
So if you're able to flash a different radio - just give it a try. For the Buzz you need to be S-OFF to flash a radio - no idea about your phones.
I'd be glad if that would work for the Marvel, too :fingers-crossed:
