Which Radios can i Use with CM9 roms - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Currently i an using Neutrino EE rom (and very happy with it) based on CP7 with N_01.100.00R radio which is awesome - quick connecting gos and wifi.
I wonder whether can i use this radio if i want to switch to CP9 based rom (like based on Photon Alpha 13)? Or some tweaks should be done and it is better use one arrives with rom itself?
if yes - does this is same install procedure (like install through CWM recovery)?
Thank you in advance

Usually radio is independent of the ROMs, you can use the same radio for any ROMs

Thank you very much

What's a good 2.3.4 Rom?

Whats a good 2.3.4 rom that has somewhat good battery life, One that is very fast gets good linepack/Quadrant scores, And lastly a rom in 2.3.4 that is stable.
If anyone could point me towards a Rom like this it would be very much appreciated.
I wouldn't use a 2.3.4 ROM yet, not all the kernels are compatible with it. It could bork WiFi, camera, etc., since the kernel source for 2.3.4 hasn't been released by HTC yet. Also, there isn't much of a difference if you're just gonna be running a custom ROM on it.
Alright thanks for the tip so right now I'm on the stock 2.3.4 rooted ROM I can just convert back to a 2.3.3 ROM without any issues if I'm correct?

I'm using Synergy lastest build, just use subversion and keep up w/ every change and add your own stuff to the apps and take out those you don't want.
Plus the new wifi tether beta5 works so got all my functionality back.

[Q] Radios

Hello,
I've been looking around on google and on this forum as well as CM's and their wiki page, but I can't find any explination of what radios are and where I can find the newest one compitable to my device and ROM.
I'm running CM 7.1.0 and my current radio version is 7.05.35.26L. I'm having problems with my GPS not working at all, which is why I want to install a better radio (That's what I've understood so far).
I have your problem... when I install the cyanogen... the wifi and the gps not work fine... And I Install this radio7.13.35.05 and my gps and wifi works very good
I dont know what radio is the best... But I think that if the wifi .. gps and Calls Works... I dont change my radio... xD
With CM 7.1.0 stable the wifi works more good than 7.0.3
Sorry For my Bad English
So where can I get that radio?

[Q] What consist in a ROM

Hi,
I am new to android phone. I see on the Android development threads, there are multiple version of ROM
My question is what does a ROM consist of?
1. kernel
2. boot loader?
3. Apps comes with phone (e.g. Setting app, Phone app)
4. android framework
5. radio drivers?
6. gps drivers?
and my next question is for different version of ROM what are the differences?
I know some are porting CM9 some are porting vanilla android source.
But are these rom have the same kernel? same radio drivers /gps drivers/etc?
Thank you.
A rom is a tar file, meaning an ancient and common type of Unix/Linux archive.
You can see exactly what is inside one by executing
tar -tf <rom>
You can even do this on your phone if you have a good rom.

first question the Vibrant roms usually have all you listed except for #2 bootloaders (with a very few exceptions)
Different roms will have different kernels, framework and gps libraries. there are a few radios to pick from.
Most ROMs have all of that, except sometimes the bootloaders. Major differences in the ROMs are the Android version, appearance and customization. Some ROMs have bugs, though, like GPS won't work or it take a while to connect to wifi. You can usually find out about these bugs if you read some of the comments on the ROM page.
Thanks. The shipped ROM must have a working GPS, WiFi , Radio, Camera, Audio, Speaker, right?
But when I follow the 'Vibrant Development' threads for custom ROM, I see some ROM has GPS issue, others have Mute/unmute problem, wifi issue, etc etc.
My question is when creating these custom ROM, why can't one just copy these drivers from shipped ROM and have everything works?
Thanks.

The last shipped Rom for the Vibrant was a long time ago and was a 2.2 froyo rom. Everything will work if you choose a custom rom based on 2.2.
The drivers, libraries for 2.3.x Gingerbread and 4.0.x ICS don't exist for the Vibrant so the devs mix and match libraries from other phones and old 2.2 stuff.
Sometimes it works, other time not. It's incredable we even have a working ICS despite the bugs.

[Q] Roms that support Radio?

I have been going through some of the roms but many of them do not support the native radio app that comes with the ace.
What are some of the some of the latest roms that support radio and not Bluetooth ( not even sure how this works)
Cheetah 2.0 supports both radio and bluetooth
Sent from my Ace using XDA
Almost Every rom supports it... There's the. Blootooth and the volume bug though sometimes... All you gotta do is put the fm radio apk in system/app
It'll work
----------------
Did I send this :O
If you want FM radio then any rom based on stock (i recommend 2.3.6. based roms) is best choice.
For CyanogenMod roms try using Spirit FM Radio from Google play.
You need some tweaking to get Spirit FM working ok but that is only choice for CM roms.
Thanks for the suggestions. I guest I will have to settle for the myth ICS rom since works fine .. this for me is a big setback I am only able to try out some CM9 roms but radio is essential to me.But I just I can't do better than 2.3

which ROM should I use?

Hi all,
I'm currently using the stock firmware 4.2.2 and I don't have any problem yet, it seems fast and everything but I heard custom rom are usually faster.
I have checked a few roms and I'd like to try them but what I usually see when trying to decide what rom to install is that features that are improved are usually listed but there's not a list of things that don't work or don't work as good we in the stock firmware.
For example, it seems like some rom have problems with gps, other with audio, some with wireless.
There are two roms I would like to choose from
-HTC OneX+ INTER CM10.2 (4.3) Nightlies & M1
and
-CarbonRom UNOFFICIAL JB 4.3.1 - 2013_11_11
which one would you advise? and what problems do they have?
is it there something else that you would advise me to install instead?
Thank you
What ROM to use is very subjective and really varies user by user. The best way to get information is to start reading the ROM threads and then when you have enough information flash it and see if it works for you.
