[Q] Best Radio? - G2 and Desire Z General

heyy, whats the best radio for a Desire Z in the UK on the O2 network?? using Sense 3.0 Gingerbread.
thanks =)

Depends on location, how far away cell phone tower is etc etc. The only general rule of thumb is usually newer is better.

Looks like it. Plus this one has 4G antennas.

4g ? So this means it is diffirent hardware? Like the difference betwn gsm and cdma?
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
It's still GSM but supports the upcoming 4G LTE. It should work on European networks, but only at 2G speeds, just like the DHD works on US GSM networks.

Why not just release Desire HD for the whole world? Why restrict it to EU and then make a slightly different one with a different name for US? Weird... s:
Because North Americans like to be "unique"
Is not us north Americans who want to be unique, In this case AT&T wants to have its way as always and restrict the phone and add their usual brand crap. If only HTC would sell it US VERSION UNLOCKED I would pay 600 for it.
I think the mentality is different in the US. People don;t usually buy SIM free phones at the full price there. Most get locked in a contract in which you get a free phone.
Moreover, the US uses different 3G bands than the rest of the world (except Telstra).
HTC Inspire (AT&T) is in FACT a Desire HD (ACE).
There will be plenty of good firmware available for it, including CM7.

The inspire is not a desire HD, for starters its a 4G device, so it will need totally diffrent radios, as for roms, i wouldnt be suprised if it had a revised hardward setup meaning it will need its own roms...

Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App

Been using the .17 radio for a month now with great results. Usually full bars in the GTA and as far east as Belleville. I have not tried the new .30 radio as of yet.

The best radio for PR?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
so ive gone and tried the new radio, and still garbage... most of the day in my home area here, my cell has no reception and a wonderful x through the signal bars....
so what else is a good solid radio for super weak reception areas?
or is there any way to boost signal?
Kneedraggin
This is a lost cause no radio is gonna magically make you have a stronger signal. Why are you asking and just try them?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Which radio did u try? Both 4.30 and 4.16 provided noticable improvements in cell reception for me, but as someone else posted if there is no signal to begin with....
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
If you use cm7 Rom , you can use 26.08.02.17_m2
Sense gingerbread Rom use 26.08.04.30 or 26.08.04.16
And must use Ril
my wifes iphone has 3 bars on average here where i have no service.... so the service is fine in the area...
Perhaps it is bad hardware? You have the Bell Desire Z? Maybe take it in and get them to give you a replacement. What network is the iPhone on?
I updated to the new .30 radio and its working great here in oshawa. Slight improvement in all areas imo.

What ROMs are tweaked for network data speed?

I know that it has already been asked but I just wanted some more feedback before I flash a ROM.
I'm running the Froyo Faux O/C Kernel on stock ROM and I updated the radio.
Are there any ROMs out right now that will give me faster network speeds? Also is possible to flash an AT&T radio IMG or some other way to use the data connection. I only have Edge at my house.

ATT and TMobile use completely different bands on their 3G network....you cant just throw an att radio and get the 3G...the hardware doesnt support it

What radio are you using and can you give the link
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
I can fix your problem with only having edge... Get t-mobile.. At&t sucks ass at least here they do...
I'm using a radio from the HTC Glacier Radios post. 26.08.04.30.
I do have t-mobile but only get the edge network. AT&T has better data speeds where I live.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
really... Hmm well I guess at&t does have service... are you sure t-mobile has 4g service in your area
T-mobile only has edge in my area. If t-mobile's hardware doesn't support AT&Ts radio band then why do we have the option to sim unlock and use AT&T

Comparable phone to legend?

Lost my htc legend. Anyone know what htc have replaced this with and/or what people would consider to be a comparative phone (for insurance replacement purposes)

Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
If it was my case I wouldn't be able to receive replacement. It really depends in what provider you got your phone from. Usually they will give you a phone that has the exact same contract fees as the one before (only for contract, not sure about prepaid).
However if you are planning in getting a phone similar to the HTC legend in terms of speed, I would choose HTC Wildfire S.

HTC Desire S or Wildfire S.

Buy Desire S - almost the same size as Legend but more screen, CPU and memory. Or wait for news from CES this week
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
Why not be the best, rather than HTC Legend? How about HTC Incredible S? For him, there are many custom firmware, including - wonderful MIUI and CyanogenMod7. Or wait for something new, but it will have a high cost for a year (at least).

Inspire 4g and desire hd same phone ?

Hi, I'm coming from LG and not real sure I have an inspire
4g .. are the 2 phones the same like can I flash roms from either device ?
Sent from my inspire 4G using XDA
For some roms there are inspire mods. They are the same phones but inspire has lte(4g) modul and and not the same audio. It ia better to ask in the thread what you must flash

Actually the inspire does not have LTE. Calling it 4G was just a marketing ploy by AT&T. It uses hspa+.
