I didnt completely read the instructions and upgraded my radio rom with 2.22.11, now no gsm. I am trying to downgrade back to Radio rom 1.09.10, my battery icon is stuck in a charging mode and I cannot sync the phone to reflash any ideas on how to procede. Thanks
Are you already SIM/CID unlocked?
Upgrade to an official carrier ROM to get IPL/SPL 2.x and you'll be free to use the 2.x radio ROMs.
The 2.x radios are generally better than the 1.x radios so there's little reason not to update to the 2.x IPL/SPL.
1.33.2010 vs 1.76.2007
3.22.20.17 vs 6.35.x.x
Ok, so what is the difference, other than they are required for certain ROMs?
What phones actually came with these 'new' versions; I have a new device, wouldn't it make sense that it had the new radio, it didn't?
Why would I want to upgrade and are there incompatibilities with providers (mine is 850/1900 freq)
Didn't see this described anywhere or in the wiki.
I'd be glad to tack it in for others information if we get some good information...
Thx!
Correct me if I am wrong. I believe the new SPL and Radio came into being when the new 1.5 Rom with Sense was released for the 32A Rogers phones. It does not use the "normal" 32A recovery but a version of the Hero recovery.
Will newer official Roms use this SPL and Radio combination? I have a sneaky feeling that it will be used again when the Rogers phones are upgraded to 2.1.
In the meantime, some chefs of the custom 32A Roms have decided to create a version of their Roms using these newer SPL and Radio. Some have not (it seems Amon RA won't for his Donut Rom). Hence, if you want to switch Roms you may have to follow CurseDroid's instructions to change SPL, Radio, and recovery.
Note: Some Rogers users believe that it is the new Radio that tells Rogers whether they have updated their phone to fix the E911 bug.
Hmmmm, I have a new Rogers Magic and it didn't come with the sense UI.
I also thought the Rogers update (maybe it was the OTA one) was still the old SPL, although a perfected version.
I also read a comment that said something to the likes of:
The new radio and SPL makes the 32A a Hero (or like)...
Does that mean it can run a Hero ROM?
Any clarification would be appreciated, will add all this to a summary...
Radio comparison
Hmmm are there any speed improvements or differences and reception differences between the 6.35x and 3.22x radios? If no, then what are the differences?
Will someone plz respond to this thread?!??
My phone came with new radio and spl when I bought it.
I switched to the old one to use Yoshi rom some time ago but now I'm back to the new one.
I didn't notice any difference between old and new in the phone speed or battery life, but the reception seems a little better on the new one.
Sent from my Dream/Sapphire using XDA App
Ever since the phone was new, no one can give an answere for what radio is better.
The only thing I have ever had is slightly better reception.
I rooted. My phone Mar 2010. The main reason people went to the old radio is because. Back then it had a more stable kernal / camera / wifi / Bluetooth. And more rom's were being cooked for it
Now if you have a 32a it does not really matter

There are more custom rom for the new radio.

I am not sure about that - I am aware of CM7, DietGB and Ginger Yoshi. But they all use the same kernels by carz12
If I am going back to the original G1 SPL (to unroot) then do I also need a radio to flash before hand? I don't want to brick my phone as I am coming from the danger radio and spl.
Thanks.
i believe when you flash to the original g1 rom , that it has a radio already on it
im not positive but thats what ive read
Hey, i want back mine old official rom but how? i have on my sd card backup of that (recovery-backup.img) how can i flash it?? please help
Restore most recent Nandroid backup from the bootloader screen
anybody knows where can i dowload htc hero official rom? not any custom.
Damn i cant get back mine 1.5 android :S and seems like mine gps is dead with 2.1 rom. I use vanillain rom hybrid 1.0 .
go here, download HTC Generic 2.73.405.66 rom and 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26 radio, flash first the rom, then the radio and you will be good again.
Does anyone have the latest radio? I guess 3vo doesnt have a radio update. So i did a radio downgrade hoping my signal would improve but it got worst. Now if i reflash with 3vo the radio does not get changed. If anyone has 3.47.25.48m or higher...please share. I currently have 3.46.25.29....which is not good as the one i had before...just any radio update....please
