flashing an artemis(OMAP 850) radio to Pharos (OMAP 850) - P3470 General

I was thinking about flashing an artemis radio rom.
seems there is some exchangebility in radio's according to chipset.
i saw a thread where they tried flashin a sedna radio in the nike, and i think ive seen some other threads where it was tried.
has anyone got an idea about succes rates? which radio transplants succeeded and which failed? in the nike thread they abandoned flasing the radio rom, but did use the sedna radio as a tremplate.
if you have experience flashing radio rom's from different phones (but same chipset) pls share your experience!

Ok i updated to hard spl (THNX Suracha and ru chonburi)
and tried to flash an Artemis radio (version 03.21.90)
but i get stuk at 79% then my pharos resets and i get the error "this update is not for your phone" or something to that effect.
dont know how to proceed, i really think it should be possible (maybe not wise, but possible) to flash that radio. any thoughts?....

i've tried...
same error at 79% with both artemis and trinity radio

its probably because they dont have certification... im gonna try that.
but also trying to get a grip on the xip and modules.. damn this stuff is complicated

Major problems with Radio need advice

Ok, I just picked up this phone and am having major problems with the Radio reception.
Peoples phone calls either go straight into my voicemail, or I receive the call put reception is broken, I can hear a word or two every few seconds, and the other person cannot hear anything.
I'm on Rogers in Canada, anyone using this phone in Canada or on Rogers can advise which radio rom to use? I have flashed at least 6 already, even the Murata one and still no success... any help or suggestions would be great.
Just flashed the original back WWE_3.13.405.0_radio_sign_25.85.30.07_1.59.42.15_Ship.exe and its a tiny bit better, where it doesnt go straight to voice mail, but reception is horrid still, inaudible.
try flashing radio 1.59.44.02... then hard reset see if that helps
Hi Lokosis,
Your signature does not give an idea of which ROM you are using. However how's the reception on your other phone (elfin)? Are you using it on the same network? Since you have already used 1.59.44.02; try going back to 1.60 ROM and a Murata Radio.
Hi 02xda2, well I'm using the PDAVIET Rom, which is 3.18.457.46, which I thought I had in my signature. The reception on my Elfin is 100% and have never had a problem, but when using the same sim card in the Polaris I'm having those major issues. The Polaris is CID/SIM unlocked already using Oli's HardSPL. I'll try flashing the 1.60 right now with the Murata and reply with results.

That's actually the first Radio I had installed, and had no luck at all with it.
UPDATE #1: Just tried the with PDAVIET V30 CE OS 5.2.20748 (Build 20748.1.4.0) along with the Murata 1.58.21.23 Radio, same problems as mentioned before. I'm also going through Settings>Phone>Band and changing it to GSM, but still the problems remain.. any suggestions?
UPDATE #2: I'v flashed the RUU_Polaris_HTC_RUS_1.25.411.1_radio_sign_25.65.30.04_1.58.21.23_polaris_murata_Ship.exe rom as suggested in another thread, and managed to get perfect sound received, and decent sent. Unfortunately I can't read Russian, so I managed to get the RUU_Polaris_HTC_WWE_1.25.405.1_radio_sign_25.65.30.04_1.58.21.23_Ship.exe which is the WWE counterpart to the RUS version, tried it with the stock Radio and no luck, flashed the Murato Radio onto the WWE and it was back to horrible.
UPDATE #3: So the only solution right now is the RUS rom, but I can't function with that as I don't read Russian. So running the HTC RUS update with radio, then flashing a new WWE rom without radio on top will work. Also atl4ntys's suggestions (below) most likely is worthy of a shot as well .
This phone being a bit aged and maybe out of warranty, how is HTC with their warranties/repairs?
hey Lokosis, have u tried c_shekhar's rom? its extremely stable, its wwe and also includes radio. u find the link in my signature. if the radio that comes with it doesn't do the job 4u then upgrade to the latest 1.58 available: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=479306
If still bad signal then the only thing I can say is to falsh the original spl rom and radio and send it in for repair.
PS: Make sure u flash without the micro sd card in it and hard reset as soon as u see the config screen after u flash. good luck!

how do i downgrade Polaris rom?

I have just got a polaris PDA having owned previous versions many for many years. i have incredibly poor reception on the phone indoors. to the point it cannot connect to the network at all.
if I go out side everyting is fine. I have tried other Sim cards with no success and other phones in the house are fine so not reception issues.
Reading through the forums I have seen talk about Radio Version 1.58.21.23 which is supposed to be really good for phones with this issue.
Here's the problem - i have ROM 3.13.206.0 WWE which I believe will only take 1.59.*.* Radio's.
how can I revert back to a previous Rom/driver set so that i can use this 1.58 radio?
will it do me any good or is there something else i can try, i have already been right up to Radio 1.65.30.09 from the forum.
any ideas?
thanks
you could install a cooked rom that uses 1.58 radio.
both of the shekhar roms use 1.58 radio and the radio is included in the download. you'll find them on the first page of the forum.
if you want to stick with original rom, then take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381600 where there are a list of the original roms available.
if you've never flashed a cooked rom before or aren't sure how to go about it, the same post contains all the information you need.

Newbie to the HD2

Hi
I have just got a HD2 on T-Mobile, and don't like the fact that they have been playing around with the software. Opera won't play flash video as it looks to have been removed and the you tube app has been deleted as well.
Also my reception is worse than my MDA compact IV and I can even get HSDPA anymore at home. It mostly connects on G but sometime tries to flick to 3G then loses connection and goes back to G again.
I am thinking of flashing the phone with a different rom and radio. Which ones are people find best at the moment. I understand that you can release extra ram and make the phone use all of the 1GHz processor.
From reading the Wiki's I understand that I can HSPL the phone to 1.42, but most of the roms are saying spl 2.02 which I can't see anywere. Am I missing something here??
Can I flash the roms from the HTC site without Hardspl'ing the phone first? It won't accept my serial number, but there are some posted on here which will allow me to download it from htc??
Any help/advise with links would be a great help
Andy
Opera doesn't have flash, use IE. Even then it doesnt always work.
First off Tmo are really strict about their internet alloweages. I think if you go to their store you can have the child lock removed (on their by default) which blocks websties (and therefore apps related to sites) from being accessed. (try going on to youtube on opera over date connection, youll see what I mean)
And the whole rom issue, you can flash HSPL to your device if your current SPL is 1.42 some newer tmobile hd2's come with 2.02 spl which isnt compatible with HSPL. So to check it, power on the phone holding volume up (I think, may be volume down) and check what it says at the top of the screen (spl version)
to get out of the bootloader pull out the battery.
If your SPL version is 1.42 then you will be able to flash HSPL and start flashing cooked roms and radios.

I think you are mistaking the software version 2.02 with spl 2 in the cooked roms. Most (none?) of the cooked roms dont include spl at all. Only the leaked T Mob rom that gave us software version 2.02 (as oposed to 1.43 and 1.66) has spl 2 in it, so steer clear of that one, , besides, it's a test rom if i understand it correctly, and will only work for so many reboots.
My advice, instal HSPL and then pick either a 1.66 official room or a cooked one.
If one DOES have/require spl2 i'm sure itwill say so in the first post of that roms thread.

Is this could be Olinex version problem?

Hello,
I have a question and I could not find the answer in seach thread
I have bought Touch HD 3 months ago and since then I can not make or recieve phone calls outside or indoor, but it works always good when I am only at home don't know why? Currently I have (SPL 1.56 / Radio 1.10.25.25 / Energy Rom 6.5 sense 2.5)
I have tried tons of diffrerent rom versions and also radio versions but did not fixed my problem. Friend of mine have same phone and his works every where he goes without any missing calls or any other problem, and we both are with same service provider in Canada (Fido). Some one said it could be my SPL version problem with olinex 1.56 and suggested that I have to revert back to 1.54 with stock OS as well. IS THIS TRUE?
Please reply how can I fix this problem?
Thanks
If i were you, I would defenitely us a newer radio than 1.10. Are you sure 1.17 doesn't work better? As far as I know, your Rom doesn't have much to do with reception problems. My knowledge on this is limited, but from what I understand your rom should have a rillphone installed that matches your radio. More information on this subject here. Most roms these days have a rillphone that matches radio 1.14/1.17.
What radio is your friend using btw?
I really appreciate your suggestion, I will definately check with my friend for what radio version he is using in few hours, and I will post it shortly. I have never heard about rillphone? I will definately check your link and all the help from any one is really appreciated. I really like this phone and want to get it working.
Thanks
Can I copy my friends HD rilphone.dll file and replace it with my one in windows directory? Will that brick my phone? As I said in my first post that his phone works fine with same network provider.
Thanks in advance
My friends HD radio version is..
R 1.13.25.24
G 52.62.25. 34U
D 1.59.48753
Windows 6.1
I have tried Rilphone 14 and radio 14 but same problem presist, can't really make calls (works 3 times out of 10) also hard to recieve calls, However text messaging is got better, I am missing only 1 time out of 10.
Any help is really apreciated.
Thanks
Could you flash the same version of radio & rilphone as your friend's. This way you can rule out any possible hardware problems? - just a thought.
Thanks Surfwarrior for your suggetion,
I downloaded radio same as my friend's (1.13) however i could not found the working Link for 1.13 Rilphone. The Rilphone 1.13 link in the raido rom thread is not working.
Any idea where else can I get 1.13 rilphone?
Thanks
I have tried flashing Radio 1.17 and Rilphone 1.15 but same problem presist.
I also tried x1 radio but did not let me flash
I am still waiting for someone who can tell me where can I download Rilphone 1.13 cab. The original link for rilphone 1.13 cab is not working
Thanks

How to update the Radio?

Hello people i downloaded yesterday this SD Android Rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=957652
Then i tried this... i started usually the clrad.exe and then the Haret.exe....
Then i came to a blackscreen with a small white text on the left corner of the Disply... i waited and waited and nothing happended....
I tried this more ten 10 Times bu it dont works....
Then i found out that i have to flash my Radio...
My actually Rom is : 2.05.51.05_2
I read on the internet that i have to install first HSPL and then i can flash my Radio..?Right?
And is it dangerous?
But i do not know wich HSPL or Radio i should take, to make running my HTC HD2 Android...
Please can you help me?
Can you give me the link to HSPL and Radio Rom please...
My SPL is 1.42.0000... and so on
I found that there is a hspl and hspl2 3, and 4... wich should i take?
Sorry for my verry bad english...
Greetings from Austria
You can use hspl 2, 3 or 4, makes no difference. For me, I would use hspl2 and select "2.08.hspl" and then flash radio 2.15.50.
and is it safe or dangerous?
can i brick my phone?
can i use then android rom on myphone if i install the spl that you mentioned?
Bumppppppppppp
Safe (always some risk with flashing) but the "wrong radio" bricks you have read about don't affect you, that's tmous only.
as for installing android, assuming you mean nand androud, it will ONLY install on that spl (2.08.hspl)
radio !!
the tmous version can be bricked by a wrong rom probably the .51 ones !!!
but the radio 2.15.50.14 is the latest and a stable radio for both tmous and eu/asian models !!
also u might want to flash the radio depending on your country for receiving better network and signal strength as different radios have different reviews !!
happy flashing ! !!
so i should flash this radio : 2.15.50.14??
what is tmous?
im living in austria...
Yep, that one will do fine.
Tmous = t mobile us, red end key, says T-Mobile under earpiece. All other hd2 are "regular" with white keys.
