Signal strength sucks - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

Is there any way I can boost my signal strength? Sometimes all I get is 1 bar but when I go back to my old phone which is a sony ericsson I have atleast 4 bars

Which radio version do you have on your device? You may need a newer version.

I believe its 1.30

I would definately recommend a radio upgrade to 1.40.30.00 this seems to be the best all rounder for signal strength and battery life, you need to do some reading first though here:-

That would be nice
great, where can I grap it?
it's from the original china mobile P860, but i'm worried about the rip of 3G, because there is no 3G in China right now.
by the way, how to dump the radio existed in a phone, and write it back.

Maybe you should contact the author for further assistance

hi, dumping the OS means you dump the whole ROM. you can do that, and i'll help you to extract the radio out.
BTW, China has run 3G for quite a few years now. As a matter of fact, they've been testing the world's first 4G there!

Any idea for an upgrade?

Did you flash any other ROM/Radio before? A lot of people have this issue, try out the Murata Radio, maybe it helps you... you can find it in one of the two Poll Threads.

No, the phone had the current Bepe ROM in it when I bought it. The store flashed it. Will check the Murata radio as you suggest. Thanks!

k, then I guess, the previous owner flashed it and noticed the signal reception was low and so he sold it =) chances are high that you will get the original reception strength back

hi,
just a fact i want to share. early this year o2 delayed shipping of the cruise because of radio issues. my O2-TC is performing great all the radio related tasks. So do not touch your radio.
touch the rest of your TC.
Over.

No, not quite. The phone was for the HK market, had Wifi installed in the ROM, but I wanted one with an English language ROM, but with support for traditional Chinese. The store I bought it from brand new in Shanghai flashed it with Bepe's ROM.
Confused yet?
The store says the reception is dodgy because China only has 2.5G coverage and I should switch to 2G mode while in-country. I think I would like to try another radio ROM if the success rate is high.

Do I have to do the CID unlock process? Is there a way of backup my radio version and ROM version to come back to the original?
I tried a search, but the topics wheren't specific about this questions.
Thanks.
checked, and it works well.

ark666 ?
now that almost one week is gone, i´ve only tested this radio with Wm 6.1, and these are my results compared to previous radio upgrades:
- better network reception
- faster Gps fix
- less battery drain
- wireless an bluetooth connections better..
Cheers.

What does change in these radio versions? I never got that, there are many different versions but not really changelogs and i dont quite see any difference
2,11,50.20 and AT&T USA
Flashed few minutes ago. Reception on the AT&T network seem to be very good. No echo. Now the $1,000,000 question to answer- Battery drainage..
If it will be in the 4%-5% per hour, as 2.10.50.xx radios I had before- will keep it. Need some time before I know the answer..
GPS lock: First cols start took less than one minute, warm starts got a fix in less than 5 seconds. (I do use aGPS and allow location by cell tower).
2G speeds - slower than 2.10.xx.xx (I think)
3G speeds - untested.
it's for phone junkies..

You are right, there is no change log.. It is meant for phone junkies like me to try and compare performance.
Most radios will have about the same performance, and from experiance, it does not mean the latest verion is better than the previous. Most of the time those are small tweaks to adopt the phone to a specific carrier so diferent people get different results based on the service provider, not the radio..
How do you know what is better? By experimenting..
* Reception (how many bars)
* Call quality (Echo?)
* Battery drainage (%/hour)
* data speeds (2G, 3G)
* GPS fix time. (cold, warm)
Build yourself a table, try few and you have an answer, or a base line comparison between radios.
Enjoy, welcome to the world of the addictive phone forums..

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,

Now less than 3 times a day with moderate usage

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.

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 ?

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?
