[Q] Best Radio for Battery Life ? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Is there a reccomended Radio for BAttery life ?
I am using 2.12.50 (I think) just wondering if the newer 2.15.50 is better ?
Anyone tried a few ?

There is no best radio, for nothing, it all depens on your location, winmo rom, android build, hardware, and god knows what else. Just try and learn.

Full vs Lite WinMo rom's when running android

Hi everyone
What is peoples oppinion on full winmo roms like VBN or Energy and also using Android? Or do you go for the lite versions which should be more Android friendly?
Currently i am running VBN Droid Rom but i am missing a few features in the lite versions... Wondering to go back to the full roms but just thought i would ask around what your experience is with the full winmo roms compared to the lite ones
Thank you all
radio and rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=651729 is a great full tweaked rom that works perfect with android!! give it a try youll love it!! i used lite roms for android and the elegancia works just as good! more important than the rom is the radio it will make all the difference! 2.12.50.2_02 works best for most http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787!!!

Ditto here.
Always been an Energy Rom user, but thought I would give ChuckyDroid a go, as basically using Android as my day to day OS.
I found that with ChuckyDroid I was having more screen freezes and hard freezes (pull the battery), so switched back to Energy.
I believe there isn't much difference between the full and lite roms when running Android, its just down to personal experience and what works for you best.
As long as the Rom is Android friendly, and has the correct files cooked in to stop Robovoice etc, you won't see much difference apart from mainly the boot up speed if your booting straight into Android. As there was a considerable difference booting to Android using ChuckyDroid compared to Energy. ChuckyDroid was lightening quick.

Please define "Android friendly", or is that what chef just saying to make you feel comfortable, more confident to use with Android?
I cooked my own rom from the kitchen, I just unchecked this, unchecked that....then... you know....,I know nothing about Linux, Android, and my rom just run perfect with any Android build.
oh, I put a line says " this rom specially made to run Android", maybe that make my homemade rom "Android friendly".

There are several .dll files that need to be in your build.... Im searching for the thread, as Im no expert but have read on this.
These files may already be in your base ROm when uploading, but the Roms that were having the problem with Robovoice I believe these files were added and if not fixed the problem were part of the reason it was fixed.
Edit....given up searching for the posts (so many to look through with key words such as robovoice, files, rom, android etc) but from what I can remember it was dll files taken from a stock 2.10 rom, which helped with the problem.
Edit again....Found the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=757914 Actually reading back it doesn't give a definite answer if theses files did work, but it sounds like they did for pkoper.
I've tried ChuckyDroid & it was very good if you're running Android 24/7, but it's VERY lightweight. I'm using VBN now because I wanna have a usable WM rom just in case something happens to my Android installation(card dies, gets corrupted, etc.) & I'm not able to fix it right away. I've noticed no difference in performance upon switching roms. That said- I got robo-voice BAD on the stock WM rom, and it went away as soon as I flashed a custom rom.

I'm using a pre-Android EnergyROM for WinMo and it works fine. So not so sure about the correct files being cooked in?
One thing I've found is that Sense will get corrupted for some reason. So make sure you disable Sense (and then restart) before jumping into Android.
It'd work a few times, then on my 4th or whatever reboot into Android, Sense would decide to die. Not sure why, as Android isn't meant to interact with WinMo, but it would.

[Q] android 2.2 system problems

hey guys i have an htc hd2 tmobile usa with the android 2.2 system and i have not flashed a custom rom on it yet.. right now my android system itself wastes a **** load of battery and there are other problems like the custom radio.... i cant make calls... i was wondering if i flash it using a custom rom will this fix my problems??? most importantly the battery problem... cause it wastes a **** load of battery just the system itself.. let me know quickly!!!
Yes, if you would read, you would know that most Android distros don't work with the stock ROM and radio. The only one that I have found that does is the Desire HD build, seems to work awesomely with the stock ROM. If you are hell bent on running Android, you need to flash to an Android compatible custom ROM, and apply HardSPL. The battery problem is a universal thing. It happens on nearly every distro of Android, so just try a bunch and see which one fits your needs.

i mean a custom rom not a stock rom.... im looking for a custom rom that will work well with android and lessen the battery use percentage of it.. cause the android system itself uses 50% of the battery.. i was wondering if there was a custom rom that will fix this and work well with android desire build.
The android builds are made to kill winmo when it runs. Ive read a post with tips one was to start android as soon as android boots up which did help me. Also i know the chuckydroid rom is really lite and boots fast. Ugly as hell but its not meant to look nice.

How do I know I am using the right radio?
Hi everyone I am going flash my first custom rom (RCMix HD v5.9.7) tonight. I was told to use the radio that works best for me, but how do I know am I using the correct one? What will happen if I use a wrong one?
Should I flash radio before or after custom rom?
Thanks

You always can flash radio rom if you have Radio S-OFF.
For mor information : Look here
btw: I use this radio rom: "04th April 2011: Radio_12.48.60.23U_26.08.04.07_M3 - Unknown source" from the thread with matching RIL and I also have RcMixHD 5.9.7 running on my DHD. Works fine.

Thanks for your reply.
I understand I can always flash a new radio, but how do I know I flashed a correct one?
I mean what would happen if I flashed a wrong one? Like some part of my phone will not work? Or it will be very slow? Or sth else?
Thanks again

Simply, put if it works without getting in the way you have the right radio. The perfect radio for you depends on many things; network, geographical location , usage patterns etc. my advice would be stick with the recommended one for your ROM and change it only if you have issues or a better radio, for your situation, is released.

There is no "right" one. Almost all of them will work with any ROM to some degree.
It's just that some work better than others (better signal, better battery life).
We haven't really come up with an objective way of judging this yet so it's best to try one or two out and see which one works the best for you. None of them "won't" work though.
For Gingerbread ROMs one of the latest two is probably the best.

Thank you very much!
Is there a particular way to know the perfect match between your radio and RIL? Or is that the same as knowing what radio works best?
As far as I know a RADIO will work with different RILs, but if you want the best performace you should take the one that is recommended.
Quote from jkoljo: "Matching radio and RIL is always a good combination when you think of signal stability and battery consumption. That is why you should flash a matching RIL when you flash a new radio"
In this thread is a list of RADIOs with matching RILs.

Just download CM7.2 and put Faux's latest CM7 kernel on it
The latest CM7 nightly. Nothing else. I used Faux's kernels for a while but one of them kept on rebooting me so I don't bother with them anymore. Overclocking was sucking up my battery anyway.
Does it is so simple?for example neutrino's rom includes lots or tweaks and patches. They are so unimpprtant? I would doing my radio better because at the moment it isn't the Best! Any suggest? Today i installed cleyms overclock and my atrix seems to work better

Try it. For me, I found that the performance improvements were so small that I preferred to stay up-to-date with stock CM7. My next and probably final ROM will be CM10 when it's stable.
The stock radio is almost always the one you want to stick with. I changed mine once and had to go back.

ROMs don't include radios. You can try other radios but chances are there won't be much of an improvement.
Depends what are expecting from radio. Performance is about the same but GPS lock could be faster, network speed, less battery drain...
Anyway, flashing radio is much more dangerous than rom. If something goes wrong it could brick your phone. Just charge battery, choose right radio, check MD5, don't interrupt process and should be fine.

I'm on my phone so I can't really link things, but go into General of this forum. Goto the Fruitcakes thread. Its like 7 threads down from the top. The radii zips are in there.
Download one, but it in the root of your SD card. Boot into recovery and install it. Then reboot.

I found that with, I think, v24. I also had the same issue with the stock CM7 kernel. faux v23 works well, although I still get the odd reboot.
