Recently, I came across an article talking about hardware security features in android. It was talking about radio HAL versions.

I wanted to see which version is present on my android 14 device.

The article in question: https://security.googleblog.com/2024/08/keeping-your-android-device-safe-from.html

Yes, I think you're looking for lshal but I don't know how well it works without root to inspect the underlying hardware. Those details are hidden from normal apps for security reasons.

Here's how you get a list of the implementations, but once again this is usually done in emulation in my experience, so not sure you can do it directly on a production device. You may need to do some hacking.
