Same here. I'm on AT&T on east coast North Carolina and my lte speeds are same as before. Wifi is more consistent however. Can anyone comment on battery life with this? Because that might make or break it for me.

Noticeable but not huge improvements this new radio. Wifi is looking better. I'm getting an intermittent LTE connection in my house and I thought I lived in a dead spot. :D

OK Folks, this is a CWM/TWRP Flashable zip to switch basebands. (You can also just replace the radio.img file in the zip with whatever radio you want to flash).

You can flash these radios to any carrier. Please Report Which one works best for you along with your region! in the shared Google map

Instructions:

1) Copy zip file to SD Card

I'm not yet convinced that this is the radio rather than testing at a different time of day, but in the Pittsburgh area I'm seeing twice the hspa+ speed on the 2.09 radio compared to 1.85 and 1.88.

Just flashed the new radio. Pretty impressive speeds at home, even just on HSPA+. Will report back with my experiences after my usual day.

Oddly enough, my speeds on WiFi at home are about the same, with the exception of the fact that Upload is actually faster than Download. Also, my old iPhone 4, running on the same WiFi network, gets better download speeds but a ****tier ping. I imagine they're talking to different servers for whatever reason, so I think it has more to do with the server than the radio, though I could be wrong.

Actually...I forgot my iPhone 4 is running on my Wireless G network, not the N network. I tried the G network on my One X and got comparable speeds to the iPhone 4, so it's probably something funky with my N-connection at home.

I'm on modaco Rom which is based on international 1.88.

Do all the at&t roms cause the L and international roms cause U?

All the at&t Roms cause my phone to not get lte in aus so far...

You might have to play with your apn settings on att roms to get aussie 4g. We're still trying to figure out what the heck is causing the U vs L conundrum, and but international based roms maaaaaaaaaay have something to do with it.. I'm on cm9 and get an L, not sure what would cause that to be att though...

Anyone sending double texts after flashing new radio (19L)? I flash the radio and every text I send out gets sent twice...I then flash back to 1.85 and all is back to normal. Thoughts?

Not having the problem here did you try to wipe dalvik and cache then flash new radio? Just a thought

    These are flashable zips that will change your baseband (radio firmware). Google it See twistedxx's post quoted below if you have no idea what this means. If you have an HTC One X (Tegra 3) you're in the wrong place.

    twistedddx said:
    Radio = firmware
    RIL(radio interface layer) = driver
    Android = operating system

    All 3 are "programs" that are running at different "levels", I have listed them from top to bottom in the order typically considered for how they interact. It is important to understand that a program is just code and how they interact is a philosophy programmers created and are now use to and not because it has to be set out that way.

    In the case of the RIL, the API rarely/never changes so it is rarely/never updated.
    The actual changes HTC make happen in the "Radio" program.

    This is opposite to how say Windows/Nvidia tackle things. The firmware rarely/never changes and they make their changes in the "driver".
    In Nvidia's case they do this because there is no standard way in x86BIOS/Windows for GPU firmware to be loaded from something as simple as the installed HDD, the firmware is actually written to chips on the card itself. It is just simpler to make all the code that gets changed inside the "driver" which is easily updated.

    For our phones "radio" its trivial for the changes in code to happen at the "driver" level or the "firmware" level, HTC/Google decided they would stick changes in the "firmware". They did this because they created a separate partition for the radio so that they can protect it separately to the OS. Android typically means the phones OS should be open for tweaking, so it must be assumed the driver could easily be replaced.
    Countries and Carriers have licensed spectrum to protect and transmitters must be licensed to use it, running custom radio code would break laws in many countries. This leads to the radio firmware being protected much more heavily than the OS itself.

    It is because HTC is lazy and because we have awesome devs that we can replace the radio firmware at all. As far as HTC, Country communication regulators and carriers are concerned the user should NEVER be altering the radio software.

    Radio:
    radio(fancy code stuff) <-> ril(boring translator) <-> Android OS
    Nvidia:
    firmware(advanced fixed code that allows for flexible access) <-> driver(fancy code stuff and translator) <-> Windows

    Note:
    Radio is about wireless communications
    Nvidia is about graphics processings. They are not similar technologies just some tech you may be familiar with.


    PS. API = application programming interface.. and lets just say if you do not understand what that is.. I cant be arsed trying to explain that, go Google it.

    If you're on the newer HBOOT (1.14) and insist on running a Sense based ROM use the Jet tool to downgrade to 1.09. This will allow you to write to the radio partition of the phone. Or just S-OFF (w00t!)

    If you're running a CM 10.x ROM it doesn't matter what HBOOT you're on as the radio firmware is stored elsewhere (in a writable partition... /system to be precise).

    Instructions:

    1) Copy zip file to SD Card
    2) Boot into Recovery (CWM or TWRP)
    3) Flash
    4) Reboot

    Always take a Nandroid Backup in case something goes screwy!

    Your bootloader will not show the correct baseband. I'm working on figuring out how the RUU updater handles the android_info.txt in the firmware.zip's

    I think maybe the op should add to the op that if you are running the official sense 5 4.2.2 builds, either telstra or tmobile germany, you SHOULD NOT be flashing the AT&T radios in the op, as they WILL cause data drops and reboots. Not quite sure about non-AT&T radios though...

    Click to collapse

    These are radios for flashing in Sense OR CM 10.x builds after 7/15 nightly!!!. They don't include the RIL files.

    CURRENTLY THE DROPBOX LINKS ARE DEAD, THEY'LL BE BACK SOON (Migrating everything over to dev host to avoid this situation in the future)

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I'm an idiot)

    Soooooooooooooo Got the new RIL working with something that I thought I'd tried over the weekend (but in fact, did not. Again, because I'm an idiot).

    The zip I'm working on is still a little bloated (there's definitely some libs in there that I just don't need) at the moment, but once I have a chance to remove all the crap that doesn't belong in there we'll have RIL for the 2.2x radios.

    Marginal increase in performance:
