Hi all,
I currently have the HTC Tytn with the original ROM on it. I'm on Cingular's network, and am having the problem where the call either gets dropped completely or temporarily when the phone tries to "hand off" 3G to 2G. Are any of the radio-only upgrades that are on the ftp supposed to address this issue? I'm not looking to change the ROM. I'm currently on radio verion 1.03
Thanks in advance!

I have a TyTn on Cingular as well. I upgraded to 1.20 radio ROM and haven't experienced any problems you're having moving to/from 3G areas.
Hi sf,
Thanks for the reply... are you also still on the original Tytn ROM as well? (for everything else but the radio...)
yes, i'm on the original HTC ROM, just upgraded the radio.
The best combination is the original HTC ROM + 1.16 RadioROM from what I have heard around ..
Great, thanks a ton guys. I'll give it a whirl.

I'm having much better battery performance with the HTC ROM and the 1.20 radio than I did with the 1.16 radio.
Goesto11, did you have any installation problems during or after the install with the 1.20 radio? I read a couple other posts where some additional tweaks needed to be made afterwards, but I'm thinking now that that was with the Cingular ROM.
Thanks,
SP
1.20 Radio was actually from the latest iMate ROM from what I remember .. might want to verify ..
latest Cingular RadioROM was 1.16 ..
Thanks GJ.

Nope, no installation problems at all (follow the directions and you should be fine).

I am wondering the same thing. I upgraded, but I haven't driven through any of the troubled areas yet. I guess we'll see on the drive home.
I'll install it today and report on it asap. A particular area that I go through on the way home from work attempts the hand off a good 80% of the time.
Oh yeah, one more (stupid) question...
If I install the 1.20 radio, then later end up doing a hard reset... after the hard-reset, will I end up with the original HTC radio, or the updated one?
Good question .. You will then always have an updated RadioROM .. even after a hard reset
Ok cool, thanks. I'm glad it was a relatively not-too-stupid question

Yeah, I did this yesterday. Your updated Radio ROM sticks with the device.
But what about installing an entirely new ROM; this overwrites the radio ROM right?

Yes, this is correct. A "normal/standard" ROM update will overwrite the System ROM, the Extended ROM, and the Radio ROM.
I can't seem to dowload a good file to unzip. It says "not a valid pocketpc app".
The ROM updates need to be run from a WinXP PC with an ActiveSync/USB connection to the Hermes...
and remember, Flashing can be a dangerous business, even if you know what you're doing... use at your own risk!
New HTC Artemis Radio upgrade only.
Radio Version: 02.93.90

Thanks mate!
Great man !!!

Thanks Mr.pof
but now link not work
Pls fix link..!
Tnx .... at last I have radio update ... wonder how it compares with older one .... signal quality perhaps.
when i want to update the radio rom my htp p3300 dutch version starts up again and the connection is lost. Then i get the message on the pc screen that the update is failed because of an connection problem (error 260). When my device is back online the collored screen (red green blue) is shown with a usb connection. The only thing i can do now is a soft reset
what goes wrong?
please help me to update!
tnx PvdH
Radio 02.93.90
Does anyone of you know whether the problems of not being reachable on the T-Mobile NL network is solved by performing this Radio upgrade?
Thanks for this Pof, I was disappointed that I wouldn't be getting the radio update with the WM6 update you released recently.... Glad to see there's work happening on the Artemis specifically at last!
Apologies if I sound noobish....
What advantages does this radio stack version have over the previous?
Better reception?
Battery efficiency?
UTMS?
other GSM bands ?
CDMA?
Please advise
If you update the radio, will you loose all the things/settings stored on your device?

Well I just gave it a try, and everything that's stored on the device was still there.
thanks, pof ! You're great !
I'm really curious if this will fix the "echo effect" problem. (Somebody calls me, I hear him perfectly but he only heares his own voice, echoed). This happens only from time to time, most of the calls are ok.
thanks again,
stefan
tnx pof,
finaly updated my p3300 with this radio update.
First thoughts about the new radio (2.93.90):
1) Battery seems to last longer
2) My problem with "echoed phone calls" seems to be fixed.
I will keep an eye on these and I will update you, guys.
Thanks for your work, pof.

Probably better reception and battery efficiency.
No chance of UTMS or CDMA, this is a hardware, not firmware, limitation.
The P3300 is a quad band device, are there any additional bands in conventional GSM? Keep in mind UTMS is a hardware thing so the bands for 3G are not pertinent.
Yes I have some problem of battery with this ROM
My phone run less than one day.
Sorry for my bad english.

Is that the reason or ??
Hello,
I have the bepe rom 0.58 for my french Polaris.
My version of radio is: 1.58.21.23
My version of protocol is : 25.65.30.04H
Where can i get the new versions of radio and/or protocol? And how to install it, keeping the bepe rom?
Thanks in advance
http://rapidshare.com/files/99464281/Polaris_ONLY_Radio_1_58_25_14_Sign_25_69_30_05.rar
Make a backup before flash, or search xda for a utility that prevent you from
a hard reset ....
Thank you very much !
But will it erase and replace my actual rom (bepe WM6.1 WWE_1.28.405.1), or simply update radio version and protocol version?
Because I want to keep my actual rom that i like very much and simply update radio and protocol versions.
Thanks in advance !
PS: And finally, how can i install swtos file? By executing what file in the rar archive? ROM.exe?
Sorry, I am a beginner with Windows Mobile and don't want to make errors ^^
Only update radio version and protocol version!

I would not recommend you to update your Radio to a test version. The test Radio is flawed and you will have problems with Bluetooth. It doesnt offer any (significant?) advantages at all, I would keep your current Radio which is stable and works.

Suddenly my FM Radio isn't able to receive any station and the bluetooth refuses to start. I'm going back to the 21.23 radio to see if I can solve it. I tried 2 different cooked ROM (bepe's 0.58 and swtos' BlackWidow latest ROM) and it reamains the same...
Wah!!! I thought that I had the necessary files to reflash 1.58.21.23, but they were from another model! (Kaiser). Now I'm not able to find where this version is available to download. Everybody seems to have the 25.14.
Does anybody know where to download the original radio ROM version?? Thanks a lot!

I'll see in a while whether it solves my BT and FM Radio issue or not. It appears that this is a recurrent problem since I have seen some people having it. I don't know if it is because of the OS ROM or because of the Radio ROM.
It didn't work. It appears that my BT and FM Radio died. HELP! I don't know the reason and what it even more strange it that it suddenly stopped working without making any change.

This is exactly what other users reported, after flashing 1.58.25.14. Some users (including) myself got it back working after flashing the original Radio, some - obviously like you - never got their Bluetooth running again. They reported "Hardware error" when trying to switch it on.
I guess it's time to send your Polaris in for repairs...
I have extracted the official Polaris Radio_1.59.42.15 from RUU_Polaris_O2_DE_3.13.207.0_radio_sign_25.85.30.0 7_1.59.42.15_Ship
I have tested flashing also. It works. Now I have to see if Radio Rom works fine. Please let me know if the radio is good.
I have 1 bar more now inside the house, than with Murata_1.58.25.14.
I wil not reset your OS. Here is the link:
http://rapidshare.com/files/144798045/Radio_1.59.42.15.zip.html
I have tested camera too. I have same problem. Camera don't work. I flashed back to Radio 1.58.25.14 Murata. Now camera works again. So it must be a problem in the Radio_1.59.42.15. I am sorry for that. The extraction of radio rom from RUU_Polaris_O2_DE_3.13.207.0_radio_sign_25.85.30.0 7_1.59.42.15_Ship worked, but the rom it is not a good rom. Thank you all for testing it also.
um... i wouldn't mind testing it if you shared a link
udk the lastest rom include the radio.3-4 bar.it isnt look bad
I had before the R 1.58.25.14 Murata, I have not noticed much difference, but this is going very well compared to others.
Cheers
Can I use this Radio with WM6.0 or do I have to Upgrade to WM6.1
Do I have to run HardSPL before upgrade (I have an non-branded free Device from HTC directly)
thanks
rgr
I have WM6.0 and it works and yes you have to hard SPL first.
Yes but..
does the camera still work ?
camera not working.
Same problem => I have to revert back to 1.58.25.14
At the moment, camera on radio 1.59.42.15 only works with UDK's SyriusRO Project ROM, Phamquang's V31 ROM, German O2 Upgrade ROM, Spanish and SFR Upgrade ROM.
Compared to Murata Radio's, it does have a better reception, faster Satnav Fix and longer battery life.
i love this radio, no battery drainage, fast gps fix, very good hsdpa reception, since my polaris went to htc repair center hsdpa didnt work anymore because they flashed radio 1.58.25.14 on it, now with this radio, everything works again, even faster and better !
Camera and calls problem
I installed this Radio along with Original Polaris ROM, SEA 1.28.457.2 WWE. I encountered camera issues with this. Basically black screen on the viewfinder. And when i make a call, i get a "hanging" dial tone like "truuuuuuuuuu".
Anyone have this problem or any advise please?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2635152&postcount=10
Either you use the mentioned ROM's or revert you radio ROM back to the previous one you had prior to upgrading.
Thanks for the info. I missed the post that this radio only support certain versions of ROMS. Too bad for me... I need MMS on a frequent basis so, I guess I'll revert till HTC provides a stupid upgrade!!! Grr!!!

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
