Best Baseband(Radio)

I only see Flipz releasing new Radios. Does anyone else release them? What all do you use and think you get the best single? Does anyone use the stock one?

I'm no expert, but in all honesty, I've used pretty much all of the radios offered and can't really tell a difference. Once again, I'm not an expert at this, just telling you my experiences with them.

radios are a thing of there own. one may work better than the other for different people in different locations. you just gotta try them for yourself

I agree, i feel like the one im using now is great, but if i loose signal, i always think maybe another would be good.

I have tried stock, the 2.42 latest, and now the 2.32 Verizon radio. I spend most weekends in a Verizon area roaming, and found the Verizon radio gave me more reliable 3G connectivity. The 2.42 radio while roaming on Verizon dropped out every now and then. When I am back on Sprint, the 2.32 Verizon radio works fine and I don't really notice any difference.
(btw I am hoping I got the versions correct!)

I am getting worse signal and speed after I flash Flipz newest Radio. Is there anyway I can go back to the stock one I had?

Flipz's website. Search, et cetera.

I flashed a new radio and I noticed a big connection increase. Then a newer one came out so i flashed it and it sucked. Then flips released a even newer one, but it was an older version radio and Its been the best radio iv had, huge increase. Me personally just south of dallas can tell a big difference between some of the radios.

click my instructions in my sig to see how i have it set up

You always seem to know a lot of info, do you know what the move dalv to SD in the recovery does? Ive been searching and can't figure it out.

I CABed up the new Swype if anyone wants it.

Here is the new Swype from the TMOUS 2.13.531.1 update.
It should just overwrite the old one.
I cant guarantee this will work on any other phone besides the HD2.
Edit: My phone has started freezing randomly after installing this. I'm not sure if it is the cause or not. I would recommend not using it for now, or use at your own risk.

Hmmm..
I love me some Swype.. do you know what changes/improvements have been made?

Thanks for sharing.

It is supposedly more accurate, and the long press keys work for me now

Thanks for the Post PunkSux! You rock!

Dammit, i should have read your edit! My phone is all buggy now with this new swype

Buggy completely!! aw well i was ready to reset mine or get new rom anyway!

Yeah, It's a bit buggy...plus I've had some random freezes
EDIT: uninstalled! made my phone run slower and freezing for no reason

Is this the same one as Dutty's on HTCPedia?

soo it's gone then?

yeah at my dads, i get no service, except in the windows. its cause of hte freaking 200 foot tall trees, but now i can keep a data connection from the window to the couch so im happy
i dont know how many roms are compatible with this radio, the cell evo series is giving me some heartburn when i try to go to my albums, imma flash the energy series and see how well that works

yeah this has been working great for me too.
better battery life, better reception, faster downloads, etc..

best radio for android?

what is the best (most compatible) radio rom for use with android?
or does it not matter?
Cheers
M

I've tried like four different ones and they all worked fine for me.

It doesn't even drain the battery faster.

I use 2.12 cause 2.14 had a lot of battery drain with my Rom and android build combo. I didn't notice any great reception improvements either. Try it and see what works for you,

My 3G data connection stability improved with 2.14
with 2.10 I have to reset 7+ times a day (switch to airplane mode)
Now less than 3 times a day with moderate usage
sent from my HD2 with XDA app

2.15!!!!!!!!!! slightly better than 2.14 better voice, signal is stronger and more reliable, and better battery life!!!! search for 2.15!!!!! data disconnects are about maybe 2 or 3 times

Thanks Guys.
2.14 it is then.
Regards
Mark.

I hated 2.15.5 because of the battery drain. I get good reception with all the radios but for my money 2.12.5 has the best battery life.

I am a newbie to all this stuff.
How do I check what radio I have?
And If I have to upgrade is there a guide for it ?
Thanks

When you first turn on your phone, you will notice 3 lines of red text. One starts with an R: and next to that is your radio number. Alternatively in WinMo you can find it in the settings at the bottom in the software info!

If you haven't upgraded your radio it'd be a good idea. Better reception and battery life. And yea you could jus read the thread about flashing your first Rom. Or search the forums there should be loads of helpful threads.

Sound too loud in the earpiece
I recently installed NexusHD2-ICS-CM9-HWA V2.7 on my HTC HD2.
I love it.
But sometimes the voice in my incoming calls is too loud. It feels like the speakerphone is on and I cant turn it down to a reasonable level.
I understand the radio is what controls this issue, isnt it?
My current radio is 15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14. I understand it is the latest in this department.
Anything else could be the culprit?

[Q] Is [MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 v2.6 A2SD+] one of the most stable rom by far?

I've been hearing many people complimenting about [MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 v2.6 A2SD+].
I am a total beginner. So, i am just curious about this rom.
What's makes it worth the talk i am thinking? Or are there any rom that is very outstanding as well?
Honestly, I believe it is quite hard to compare.
Anyone care to enlighten?
I would like to know how they differ from each other.
Any form of help is appreciated, even links to guide.
Thanks in advance.

Its all a matter of opinion....hard to answer your question. The way i pick a rom to try out is...
Look for one that was recently updated
Read the first posts from the developer..your looking for changelogs, and whats working and not working.
Remember the date of the last update....go to the end of the thread and read all the way back to the date of the last update. This will let you see problems other users have found. Decide if these problems are related to the build or user error. Most will be user error. If you dont see a lot of complaints or problems with ...gps, data, wifi or phone turns into a blood sucking vampire then flash it and see for yourself. This is the ONLY way to find yhe best rom for you.
Believe it or not every hd2 is different. They all react differently to setups that are exactly the same. Its weird and hard to explain so just believe it.
2.15 radio
2.2miui stock via cwm

definately one of the most stable & smooth IMO. ive tried quite a few other ROMs and always end up flashing back to MDJ CM7 2.6 good for daily use

I totally agree with the statement above, and while mdj's rom was "stable" for my particular hd2, so are many other roms, its all about your personal preference i would say get clockwork working and make a few nand backups of roms you like and switch off every few days until you find the one for you, but do as you want man, they are all pretty awesome with unique features, i think mdj's build is slightly outdated due to kernel and system breakthroughs as of late... just my personal opinion though, decide for yourself

Thanks, man. Just boot it. Haven't got any issue. Other than the robotic voice. All good, so far.

I don't know any people, but it's the best one to me as daily use.

Hey, thanks. I just boot it. Well, as I am new to this, I am unsure about the ROM TYPE out there.
What about the ROM-ZIP? Is it like the NAND?
I came across this [HD2 CoreDroid DHD v1.4 (23 FEB)] http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=926507

It isnt near as complicated as it seems..but i know how you feel. I thought the same thing at first.

For .zip roms, you gotta use CWM to install. a little more confusing at first. But you will know how as you read more. For now, try to get use to flashing NAND.

Definitely the most stable I have used.

I have no problems with it and recommend it to beginners,I'm just waiting for a good stable sense Ginger rom down the road
Phone History:
Samsung A707
LG Incite Darkwolf 6.5 Winmo rom
IPhone 3Gs 32gig(traded it for
my beloved HTC HD2)

Does this have the bt 60ma drain as with the other cm roms? I came from a nexus one and would like to keep using non-sense roms.

Loo Sze Yung,, you mentioned you get Robotic Voice. Is that an issue needed to be addressed with the rom or is it just on your phone ? Have you resolved it yet ?

cant you tell by just looking at the views of his thread?

the robotic voice is an easy fix. just go to sound setting and turn off audible touch tone. i don't think you like a tone to be played every time you type something on the dialpad right?
