How to set CDMA APNs with new more stable ril

[ndno]

highlandsun,

For froyo, your instructions said to mount it to /lib/froyo/libhtcgeneric-ril.so but I also see there exists /system/lib/libhtcgeneric-ril.so on the froyo build; is that correct or do we need to mount both? Yes, I did see your instructions to mount it to /system/lib/libhtcgeneric-ril.so for Gingerbread; I just wanted to make sure; I'm using FRX06.

Currently, I'm mounting it to /lib/froyo/libhtcgeneric-ril.so per your instructions. I didn't do the steps in your 2nd post for CDMA and it still works fine.

I know there are two, but the rootfs AFAIK points to the one in /lib/froyo - you can verify which RIL you're running by doing a logcat -b radio fairly soon after boot - it's near the top, and if it says 0.8 then you're not on hyc's RIL, 1.6 then you are.

As for your second statement about CDMA, then you aren't really reaping the benefits of the new RIL - you're still running in fake GSM mode if you don't follow the steps in the second post.

I found the build.prop method easiest - that way you can just bind mount a build.prop, and remove it at will.

The froyo init.rc always explicitly references /lib/froyo, therefore so must you. The gingerbread init.rc doesn't do that.

If these steps weren't correct, someone would have mentioned it long before now and they would have been fixed.

In real CDMA mode you'll actually receive MMSs that are sent to you. In fake GSM mode (the default) those MMSs will be lost in the ether.
