Hi all,
I have a quick question! Looking through the site I understand about updating the ROM but what does updating the radio do? Does it give better reception or frequency?
Thanks!
Yeah, can result as a better reception, wifi signal and gps.

Indeed, it would improve youre reception, wifi etc. Thats the radio. The radio will update automaticly when you update the stock-rom provide by HTC.
Thanks for the info! I thought so.
Now if someone would fine a way to hack the radio to get TMo 3G US.

I have recently upgrade to Xda Live v0.20 an has been working great since doing so...
I have never had any real problems with the device but latley calls have been hanging (Not able to end the call) call quality not all that good and calls cutting out....
Spoke to a friend who has upgraded his rom and said all the issues that he had went... Ah ha.... i thought... thats what i need...
So i ask... what is the latest radio rom that works and is there a small chance that i will brick my device....
Many Thanks

I'm running the LVSW Edition of WM6. I have radio 1.34.00.10 and seems to run fine though not had the OS installed long.
Would like to try radio 1.35.00.11 but cannot seem to download from xda ftp. Can anyone point to another source for this radio rom?
Cheers

Are you trying this site for the ftp (Hermes Uploads)? ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Hermes.
Or this one ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Hermes/Extracted_Radio_ROMs/
Both started downloading ok for me.
Why do you want to upgrade from 1.34.00.10 to 1.35.00.11? From what I've read in some of the other threads the only benefit the 1.35 radio has is that it is GPS enabled - not much use because the Hermes is no good for GPS.
I've made the above statements from paraphrasing others because I haven't compared these radios and don't need GPS - so I'll be happy if others correct me.
Maybe a bit of reading (probably lots really ) could save you the time of an un-necessary upgrade - but probably finding the info will take longer than flashing the rom!!!
so your saying that there is no need to upgrade my rom....
There is benefit for me in doing so?
GPS

Excuse me, but the Hermes is gooed for GPS. The only thing is that our Hermes-gods are working on an antenna. The antenna is not (yet) connected to the 'GPS-chip'. GPS worls, but there is only a weak signal.

GPS
Sorry... tapped twice the button

Thats fantastic to know... and i am reading the forums on this development
But for the time being just wondered if there was a radio rom out there that improved the issues that i am currently having....

1.27 is good
Guys,
we need to have some sort of a poll for the best radio out there so that everyone can benefit from it.

just use the newest..
and the result of this will not be plain the "best" radio. also you don't know about different networks in different countries etc... i second my precessor, just use the newest as long as it doesn't make trouble.
I use the newest one, until i find a problem.
you won't find a problem with newer ones, since all radios as of yet are abysimal at best with 3G
Bluetooth now works well on 63.18.55.06IU_6.35.08.22
I am in the UK and did the update from HTC to fix the Sense speed etc.
Once I did this my Bluetooth stack was shot. Dropped all the time and would hang connecting to A2DP unless I did a reboot etc.
Not sure what the radio number was in that build.
I just got fed up and rooted my phone and flashed 63.18.55.06IU_6.35.08.22.
Wow, now Bluetooth is working like a charm (only been 1 day but a world of difference).
3G and 2G seem the same as before for connection and signal etc.
Just thought I would let you all know my findings.
Regards
Russ

hi alpha, the newest one is: 63.18.55.06IU_6.35.08.22
A link to all radios can be found in the sticky section of dev
Hi, I've recently got myself a Topaz and when using my home wifi I get a very poor signal even when I'm right next to the router. I get about 1 or 2 bars. I've tried to change the performance to battery ratio setting with no luck. Any input on this matter will be much appriciated.
That is a radio problem.
Check current radio version, it should be 4.49.25.17 if you are running new official ROM with win6.5
all settings/device information
I'm actually still running win6.1.

No prob...
Take a look here, read it good and then flash one of the newest radios...
I'm reading the newest one drains battery and that the older version is better. Have you had any problems with the newest radio?

I use the newest and no probs. But it is depending of your operator, the place where you live, what connections you use most... and so on...
So, try, try and try... the latest ones...
Just updated the radio and its all working perfectly. I'm finally getting full bars on signal from my router. First time doing anything to my phone and it was quite easy with all your help. Thank you to everyone.
PLEASE.
Could some one help with the setting for HSPDA and HSUPA i have checked and made sure they are enbled but still only connects to 3g i am on t-mobile uk all help would be much appreciated and help a few others out there that need help with this one too.
Thanks in advance.
Are you on radio 2.07.50? I have noticed i mostly get "3G" as well, but when i get closer to the city center it turns into "H". I think reception is just really bad!

Does anyone have 3G on Froyo 3.2?
"Froyo 3.2"
...the Mdeejay build?
(be specific, please, for the love of god)
Oh, and check your APN settings.
Nah man, Darkstone build. I already got my APN settled up, just got E with full bar of signal. Never get 3G at all, just G rarely but most of time E.

Hmm...
You in a bad signal area?
What radio do you use? (switching could help)
I'm in Rochester, New York. It's a great signal. I couldn't find my radio somewhere in Setting under Software Info.
When you boot into WM, it says (in the bottom left) "R" and then the radio rom version.

Flashed Radio should be the last part of the Baseband-Version in the SW Info.
The radio version said 2.10.50.26 and my ROM version is Astraios 1.6 WWE which it is under Shubcraft. What am I missing?
My Baseband version said 15.39.50.07U_2.10.50.26. Does it help anything?
Hmm, you could try flashing different radio ROMs, some people have reported changes for better worse in signal with different radios.
Froyo no internet connection??
Ok, I installed froyo 3.2 on my hd2 and everything is working good except it says I have no cennection to the internet and i need to connect, but I have signal and tmobile network, can someone please help me with this problem??
