Could we have a radio thread please that lists T-Mobile compatible radios?
I think the stock radio is not that good. I would like to try a newer and hopefully better radio for better battery life and reception.
Here are all the radio roms that work well (tested by me) and are safe to use. Sometime later I'll upload them to a FTP server for you to be able to download them directly, however, for now, visit this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
Make sure to only download the xxxx.50.xxx radios!!!
Leo_RADIO_2.07.50.27_2
Leo_RADIO_2.10.50.28_2
Leo_RADIO_2.10.50.26
Radio_HD2_2.10.50.08_2
Radio_2.10.50.19_2
Leo_Radio_2.11.50.20
Leo_Radio_2.12.50.02_2 - works best for me so far, works well in Germany so far. Excelent battery life.
Leo_Radio_2.14.50.04
Leo_Radio_2.15.50.14 - NEWEST RADIO!
Hey Guys, sorry for the delay. Here is a link for the Radio Roms for the HD2 TMO USA:
http://www.4shared.com/dir/RFg27UmU/Radios.html
WARNING- DO NOT USE 2.04.50.x OR 2.05.50.x - They WILL brick the tmous.
2.06.50.x
2.07.50.x
2.08.50.x
2.09.50.x
2.10.50.x
2.11.50.x
2.12.50.x
all work on tmous phones
I have 2.08.50.08_2
Is that a good version or should I switch to something else? Don't know if this effects it but my HD2 is unlocked on AT&T's service.
battery and signal results vary from person to person, phone to phone. you just have to suck it and see.
2.09.50
well i am using the 2.09.50 and seems to have a good signal and battery is good so far. will continue to test. will post my full opinion monday.

Just got my HD2 unlocked, so I will try with the latest one, and work my way back to the next older one if my batti life or signal (dropped calls) does not improve. I remember having similar issues with my TP2 until later when lots of tools and utilities were available.
thats funny. I was going to upload all the TMOUS compatible radios for this section and you already posted a thread. make it easier for USA people to update there radio's

lol. Did that because the stock radio seems to suck.
Also did not want to brick the device.
Edit: Nevermind
2.09 is the one released with 2.11 stock rom. i run this radio and reccomend it to match the 2.11 base in my rom.
So far it performs well in all respects.
i have been using Radio 2.10.50.08_2 and been getting excellent results. i run bt all day all night with 3g and i have 5 email accounts that send/receive every 5 min with all the other sense stuff running update as soon as possible and i am having my battery last all day compared to half a day.
if you want i will upload all the working TMOUS radios that are compatible so everyone can grab it from this section.

thanks but i'm talking about the stick together graphic, it's actually in the radio rom. i have no idea how to dump and rebuild a radio rom (or if i want to start risking bricking my phone lol)
I only see Flipz releasing new Radios. Does anyone else release them? What all do you use and think you get the best single? Does anyone use the stock one?

I'm no expert, but in all honesty, I've used pretty much all of the radios offered and can't really tell a difference. Once again, I'm not an expert at this, just telling you my experiences with them.
radios are a thing of there own. one may work better than the other for different people in different locations. you just gotta try them for yourself

I agree, i feel like the one im using now is great, but if i loose signal, i always think maybe another would be good.

I have tried stock, the 2.42 latest, and now the 2.32 Verizon radio. I spend most weekends in a Verizon area roaming, and found the Verizon radio gave me more reliable 3G connectivity. The 2.42 radio while roaming on Verizon dropped out every now and then. When I am back on Sprint, the 2.32 Verizon radio works fine and I don't really notice any difference.
(btw I am hoping I got the versions correct!)
I am getting worse signal and speed after I flash Flipz newest Radio. Is there anyway I can go back to the stock one I had?

Flipz's website. Search, et cetera.
I flashed a new radio and I noticed a big connection increase. Then a newer one came out so i flashed it and it sucked. Then flips released a even newer one, but it was an older version radio and Its been the best radio iv had, huge increase. Me personally just south of dallas can tell a big difference between some of the radios.

Hey all!
I was looking through my phone settings/specs today and i found something that kind of confused me.
Under Software Information, i see my phone OS Version is 5.2.xxxxx. Does that mean im running Windows Mobile 5.2? or is it something else?
Im new to the world of Windows Mobile phones, since my last phone was a iphone.
So if anyone could clarify this, that would be great.

That's a build number...don't sweat it my friend, you're running 6.5
Check my sig, you'll see the proper version numbers for the stock rom...any you find should match those, and probably will.

Oh ok thanks! And yes i am running the same OS Version as your HD2, but my ROM is the new 2.13xxxx one =)
Also, is there a way to calibrate the Touch Screen? I know you calibrate the G-Sensor, but i cant find out how to do it for the screen.

Since i can't edit a post, ill double post....
After upgrading to the new ROM, i find the touch screen sensitivity went down only slightly.
For the people who have yet to update to the new 2.13 rom.. can you go into your registry and let me know the "exact" settings that t-mobile had the screen sensitivty at before they changed it in the new rom??
I absolutely hate the new sensitivity.. and the thread thats already floating around here.. doesn't seem to make it as fluid as it was before.. either that... or can someone inform me on how to "downgrade" the rom.. because honestly i never had a "sms freezing" issue that everyone was talking about...
i want my old screen back!!!

I don't think 2.10 has those registry values, I've checked myself.

I know it sounds silly, but is it at all possible to make a 1.6 rom? Coming from a G1 I miss my good old fashion Super D with all its speed and stability so is there any chance of a Super D port? I know its crazy, but Im just wondering if its even possible and if it is how hard of a port would it be?
Thank you!

Why didn't you stay with your G1 then? I don't think there is a 1.6 rom out there anymore..

Im not sad I upgraded I love my HD2 I just thought it might be just to have a 1.6 rom to mess around with. I also figured if I wanted it someone else might too.
well there really isn't a 1.6 ROM, but u can try using launcher+ which is a similar ui except for the retarded screen indicator.
or try out, this, its the real thing:
