Hey everyone im having trouble with reception on my phone and am wondering if any other user in pakistan can recommend a compatable radio for mobilink. Right now im using the 2.19 radio but signal quality sucks.
Where are you placed in Pakistan,All the cellular networks in Pakistan suffer reception problems in some areas.
Hoever,you may try the Radio Rom 2.69.11,thats what I'm using and getting excellent signal reception almost everywhere on Mobilink
what is the best radio to have right now? no 3g issues but would like better reception if possible. im now on 4.04.00.03_2
Hi all
I'm currently using the Radio Version 2.10.50.28_2
I'm haven't had any problems with it whatsoever, but I was wondering if that is the best radio in terms of signal quality available for my location
I'm in London and my operator is o2 and do get pretty decent signal, but of course if there is a better radio suited for these conditions I'd like to have it
So is 2.10.50.28_2 the one I should continue to use or should I be using a different one?
RAdio
I am ORINGE customer using AxLor V 10 the same radio and everything is really PERFECT ! ! ! London area too ! ! 3G everywhere
Have to admit the 3G network is pretty decent, getting HSDPA as well =]
Guess I am on the best Radio
Radio's are always subjective. I personally find the best radio for EU roms to be 2.09.51.03_2. Brilliant call quality and decent signal. Looking at you're signature rom, you appear to be on a Tmous rom so in order to see that extra ram you'll need to stick to 2.**.50 radio's.
i am on vodafone uk and in a constant GPRS signal area. only time i get 3G+ is when i visit my girlfriend in lincoln then its constant.
my radio is 2.10.50.19_2. I use the Artimis V14 so the extra is not enabled tho i have tried other version 2.10 radios and get worse battery life.
With this one my phone is good for 1.5 days use. and thats with normal usage, net, text, calls to mrs etc.
i did condition the battery mind.
Hi all,
I'm on Vodafone in London, and i'm finding i'm getting really poor reception and dropped calls.
After trying out a few ROMS i settled on Energy 21903 build as i've found its the most reliable ROM. I've also tried Artemis and Energy 23569 builds but just found they weren't as stable and crashed at some point.
At the moment i've installed 2.07 Radio.
My problem is that it seems to take ages to detect a signal and sometimes it comes and goes. I also only get one days battery.
Has any other Vodafone users experienced similar problems and whats the best radio for Vodafone in London?
Cheers

Surprised you say Artemis is unstable, did you do a task 29 before flash. I found this ROM on Vodafone to be excellent. Try the radio in my signature, it seems ok for me but to be honest the best advice I can give is flash one and try it for a few days.

I found that Artemis works ok for a few days then i start getting problems like system hangs. I found the same thing with Energy at first but then switch to the older windows build and haven't had any problems since.
I'll give you the radio a go, but i just want to know if its my phone thats poor on reception or just that Voda are not as good as they used to be
i left voda at the start of the year as after 3 years with them the siginal strength was dropping everywhere and became none existant at my house on diffrent handsets

I'd love to leave them, but unfortunately took up an 18 month contract on November, thinking about my past experience with them was good. What a dope i am.
HI Guys
I have got exactly the same problem with the battery/reception on Vodafone.
I am using Energy May 13th 23569 GTX, with Radio 2.10.50.28_2, and also get 1 day of battery tops.
I have noticed the Phone stays in flight mode sometimes after losing the signal, which is quite annoying.
yo
i live in a complete 2g area and use the radio RADIO_2.10.50.19_2
but as you are london and probably get alot of 3G and H symbols on your HD2 it will probably help but as soon as i visit my girlfriends in lincoln and get H, my phone lasts 1.5 days ish but i am used to charging nightly
its something we have to live with man with these power hungry phones
Im on voda in uk - midlands
I use radio 2.10.50.28.2 and it seems the same as every radio i have tried - at home constantly dropping in and out, from 3 bars 3G - to flight mode and back again.
In work i have almost full signal and H 3-4bars.
Im not too worried about the battery its just the signal at home that pees me off!!
Ive tried (i think) every radio apart from the .51. ones - does anyone know which radio vodafone HD2 shipped with??
If you have bad signal at home, get yourself a SureSignal booster (check it out here)
I use the 2.10.50.28 up here in Glasgow, and I get occasional drops at home, but out and about it's usually always very good. Sitting right now with H at 2-bars.
We had Vodafone for our corporate phones at my last work, they changed to O2 after a month as so few users managed to get decent signals. That was UK-wide.

Vodafone and O2 share masts, so signal is generally the same in all areas of the UK for both networks. Of course it does vary slightly from area to area, and radio and make of phone matter too.
I think Voda just aren't as good as they used to be with reception. I think the phone must have something to do with it as well, but the general picture i get when asking around is that they're just not as good as they used to be.
Oh well, gonna try 2.10 and see if its any improvement.
Vodafone reception has been fine for years in all of my Nokia handsets but was so rubbish on the HD2 I was beginning to regret my purchase. Switched to O2 and reception is now fabulous, no regrets now!
Voda signal
Have to agree with most of the people who have posted on this thread. Voda reception is patchy at best.
At times I can be on full strength HSPDA, then for no apparent reason, I'll be in exactly the same spot and the signal just disappears altogether.
Though to be fair, I'm not sure whether to blame it on voda as I came from Three which got a brill signal in all areas, but that's all I really have to compare it too. We do use Voda 3G dongles on laptops at work...and they are absolute crap...lucky if we get a signal, and when we do they're slower than Slowy McSlow on the slow train from Slowsville!!
Voda reception seems to have got really bad this last 2 years they are even offering a home router to boost reception!!??(I think they missed the MOBILE phone part!),
having said that my TP2 had much better reception than the HD2..
I have also tried alot of different roms and Radios I am in Hampshire so not too far from London.... I am using 2.09.50.29_2 along with the cab for call quality fix it is a US Tmo radio, so you need to use with a TmoUS compatible rom.
I know alot of people are using the 2.10 radios but after many trials I have found 2.09 the most stable and best all round for data, reception and battery,
Hope this helps
The whole point of the router is to boost your signal at home. A lot of people live in bad signal areas, but have no problems elsewhere, so that is designed to help me get better signal at home, the one place you can at least do something about it. And apparently, it works very well.
Okay, so I'm on the T-Mobile USA network. I've had a Dash 3G for a long time, and I've recently picked up an HD2. My Dash 3G gets full bars in my house, no matter where I am. But when I put the SIM card in the HD2, I'm lucky if I get any service at all. If I so much as LOOK at it the wrong way, the signal dies completely.
Is there a definitive way of increasing the antenna reception, or is the HD2 just like this all the time? Or is it just my phone? Is there a specific radio people have tried that have improved reception (I'm in Utah, if that makes a difference)?
Sorry, I'm still way new to all this flashing and stuff.
(I also posted this in the HD2 Q&A board, since I didn't know if the version of the phone would make a difference. It IS a TMOUS version.)
Im my experience...the HD2 actually has EXCELLENT recption compared to older HTC devices...so it may just be your phone. If it's fairly new, maybe ask T-Mobile for a warranty replacement.
same issue
I have had the same issue since i brought my HD2 home. My roommate has a new G2 and gets full signal as there are 3 Tmo towers within 1000 feet of my house. Yet I barely get 2 bars and most often, none at all. She gets "lol4g" throughout the house while I barely get it when outside, pointed at the tower holding onto my tinfoil hat.
HTC HD2 TMOUS
WinMo ver: CoreCell 4.2
Android: MattC leo + Froyo /w sense 1.8
Radio: 2.10.50.26
I have reloaded every version of the readio and nothing is making it better. When I went to TMO, I had full signal sitting in their store so they pretty much didnt do anything but soft reset the phone.
