Telus Desire HD OTA Gingerbread - New Radio

Hello all, this was brought to my attention today, courtesy of my news feed from mobile syrup.
Today Telus is pushing out an OTA update to Gingerbread, and according to the picture in the link, it looks like it has a new radio with it too. I have no clue about how to get a hold of this, but I thought I would pass on the information to the folks here.

I notice my weather now updates to my current location,other than that,I'm still playing.

I posted some information in the HTC Desire HD radio thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15005471&postcount=1619

So far here is what i found after update
Quadrant benchmark is max at 1580
Program opens a bit faster
HTC Message widget no longer have any choice on which sms program to open from
much faster on phone reboot

So is this Telus GB rootable?

Is anybody else having horrible 3G data issues with this update? Whenever I'm not connected to Wifi and attempt to use data my phone reboots. It has made my phone completely unusable. So far I haven't heard of anybody else with my issue though....
It also does not seem rootable. In an effort to prevent having to take my phone in to Telus I tried rooting and failed.

I've been having issues where it won't connect to mobile network .When I try to do it manually it tells me my SIM won't work with Telus,but restarting the phone fixes the issue,still very annoying.

That's a weird one. Mine's even worse though. If I leave my phone in my pocket it restarts about once every minute or two.

Network Pull -> Quick Mango

Pull the network right after checking for updates - if you get it right, you'll receive the update immediately and won't have to wait for the staged roll-out to reach you.
It was the same with NoDo.

How much time did you wait before u pulled off the network ?

Update Version # 7.0.7403.0
It then updates to 7.10.7720.68
The below link should help too
http://www.wpcentral.com/force-mango-update-early-through-zune-software

This worked for me on my phone branded to T-Mobile UK just finishing installing the secound update now. Heres what i did
Debrand the hand set
Check for updates
Block out going connections with my firewall
Rebrand the hand set
Update
7.0.7403.0 is installed no problems. nearly finished installing 7.10.7720.68 has taken me nearly a hour.

Any tips on how to do the internet pull thingy?
It doesn't seem to work for me...
Every time I do the pull i get a message that there's a connection problem and when i reconnect i get a message that my phone is up to date...

I've got Zune running on a laptop with a wi-fi enable/disable key so following the instructions on wpcentral I selected Update, waited for it to say 'Your phone is up to date' then selected the item above (Linking), then selected Update again and immediately disabled wi-fi to kill networking and this worked a treat, now running Mango
Unfortuneately, I had hoped Mango might help with my Omnia's random rebooting/boot failure problem, but it doesn't seem to have made any difference :-(
Does seem to boot a lot quicker though (when it decides it wants to boot!!)

I'm sharing my experience with Mango update...
Omnia 7 ex T-Mobile but now unbranded
from NoDo 7392
Initially, I didn't get any update message when connecting with Zune and trigering Search update from Zune Settings -> Phone -> Update.
I tried the disconnection thingy about 10 times without success. At that point, on my phone, I had disabled WiFi and Data Connection, but I was connected to the carrier network. I disconnected Internet on the pc after 3-4 seconds. I tried multiple times altering that timeframe to no avail. Some say that u have to disconnect quickly less than 3 seconds, almost after searching for update.
My next guess was to go to Airplane mode on my handset, and after the first try - voila - I got prompted that there is an update, 7.0.7403.0, clicked OK, connected Internet back on the PC and continued with the installation. I can't be sure if getting the phone to Airplane mode did the trick or I got the disconnection timing right, but you don't lose anything trying this.
The update failed shortly after, because of low disk space on the PC (required for the backup). Estimate about 10 free GB's of free disk space on the hdd that you have installed Zune.
I freed some space connected again the phone to Zune and I got the prompt again without trying any disconnection work-around. Proceed to installation. Update to 7043 was successful and was prompted automatically to a new update, the long awaited 7.10.7720.68 Mango. After some steps, I can't recall at what step, I got a message that the update was not successful due to low disk space on the handset this time. I had about 320 MB's free before the update. Any worries for 'brickage', did not arise at all as I booted with the 7403 o/s, which was operatable 100%. At that point fw / radio / bootloader had NOT been updated.
Freed about 250 MB's of phone settings, bringing free space to 570 MB's, and that did the job. I connected to Zune, got prompted for Mango, completed update. Funny thing, that after the Mango update, free space was not lower than 570 MB's, but close to 800 MB's
So, summing up, get your phone to Airplane mode (may or may not help), ~ 8 GB's free on the PC, ~600 MB's free on the phone, and do not worry, very bad luck is required to brick your phone.
I didn't get of a 3rd update, as some have reported, the OEM update, but my firmware / radio / bootloader all have been updated to:
fw: 2424.11.8.5
radio: 2424.11.7.2
bootloader: 5.8.1.9
So, I assume, for those updating from NoDo, the OEM update is included in the Mango update.
Now running Mango, the ui is faster than NoDo, unbelievable. All apps keep on working, except for sideloaded homebrew apps that use native code and most patched OEM apps of other OEM's (but not all of them), all other apps, sideloaded or downloaded from Marketplace, homebrew or not, continue to work. All games still work, I could not spot any performance difference from removing the 30 fps cap.
In the Samsung section of the MarketPlace, or after searching for Samsung Electronics Co.,Ltd., I spotted a lot of new apps, some known, some never heard of. The apps not existent for NoDo are: AllShare (DLNA client), high fidelity position (GPS settings, adding GLONASS support), Mobile Print (I am not sure, maybe existent on NoDo), FunShot, MiniDiary, RSS Times, advanced text messages, Video Call (video calling through your operator 3G, chargeable)
A strange thing is I haven't received any pushed notification from the Marketplace to update any app. I have updated a couple manually without need of uninstall/re-install but not automatic notification whatsoever.
If you get a message saying when attempting to run an app, something like ''Microsoft has invoked the use of this app'', it means that (if you have a Developer unlocked phone) your phone has been locked; you have to repeat the Unlocking proccess with the Windows Phone Developer Registration option of Windows Phone SDK 7.1 tools. However, the maximum apps limit has been as well lowered to 10 apps (or 3 if a student dev), so I can't sideload any app (so no homebrew to assign max apps / or registry editor). Any ideas (other than hardressting and installing assign max apps, or uninstalling apps till u reach below 10 apps)

Tried the same thing multiple times now, no dice. Same as above posts, errors out when disconnected and says updated when connected.
The unbranded UK ROM shouldn't be an issue, should it?
Update: I finally got it to update, using the steps described. It was probably some weirdness with my desktop, which is probably why it only worked on my laptop. The delay needed seems to be about two seconds.

I had to enable updates via 3g network in the phone to get the update message in zune or I always get same errors as you, hope it helps

I would like to remind everyone that not all mobile operators ship mango, so just like in NoDo era (especially Omnia 7's from germany, also some other phones in America) you need to registry unbrand your phone. Start by getting WP7 Root Tools and then change the following in the registry:
Under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo] set:
MODeviceName=OMNIA7
MobileOperator=000-88
that should make this trick work if it does'nt work without network pull!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1265321 or any other registry edito, but you will need a developer unlocked device (If you already have mango, which also works, you will need the interop unlock, see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271963)!

tried the network pull so many times, just checked those keys, MobileOperator was empty, i used a debrander from xda. entered 000-88, restart & network pull worked first time, disabled wifi after about 4 mississippis

I didn't get the OEM update how do i get it?

I've unbranded, turned on 3G updating, turned on flight mode, restarted both laptop and phone, and I've disconnected instantly to five seconds.
I guess I'll just wait for the official thing, perhaps the fact that I'm on the RTM is screwing with it?

[Q] *Very* Slow Network Speed

Hi all,
I recently acquired an AT&T Samsung Focus with the intention of running it on Rogers. After acquiring the phone I forced the Mango update and then unlocked it.
However, I am seeing some ridiculously slow internet speeds. Slower than EDGE slow. I did a comparison with my non Mango HD7s and the Focus seems to be delivering speeds 4 to 5x slower.
The APN setting seem to be correct (matching the ones on my HD7s). I tried the Network speed Diagnostic code, but that seems to have had no effect. The 3G icon is lit up with full bars, and I've tried in many different locations with consistently slow results.
I don't suppose that anyone has any idea what could be causing such a rastic loss of network speed?
Thank you kindly.

Have you tried this? It's for NoDo but they might have done it for Mango too.

Thanks for the reply! But yeah, I already gave that a shot and it didn't seem to have any noticeable effect.

I would call your service provider and see if they are working on towers in the area. Sometimes they need to reset your phone on the network as well. Also, if you are using an old sim card you might need to get a new one; I personally had that problem where I needed an updated sim card to yield higher speeds. Otherwise recheck apn settings and diagnosis app settings.

Thanks for the reply!
It shouldn't be service or SIM related. I've been trying between multiple handsets: The Focus in question, an HD7s, a Samsung Infuse, a Palm Pre 2, and an iPhone 3G. The only handset displaying the problem is the Focus, everything else is working at normal speeds. Of the above devices, the first three are unlocked AT&T devices, while the last two are native Rogers devices.
The APN settings *should* be correct insomuch as they match what I have on the HD7s.
The only things I can think of as a cause for this is a defective handset (which seems unlikely as I would think that the network would simply not work, as opposed to work very slowly) or an issue with Mango (which strikes me as unlikely since I haven't seen this issue reported elsewhere).

Have you tried it previous to Mango? You can try flashing your Rogers ROM from here but it would mean you have to start over again.

Thanks again!
I was hoping not to have to give that a go, but it's looking like my only real option at this point...
UPDATE
Just flashed the phone using the original Rogers ROM. With the original firmware, the issue is fixed. Network speed is fine. I'm going to see what happens once I update to Mango.
UPDATE 2
Upgraded back up to Mango. Everything seems to be working so far. Network speed seems to be good, about on par with what my non-Mango HD7s has. Maybe something went wrong with my original Mango update that made the network go screwy?
Going to see if the speed stays good as I re-add my apps. Fingers crossed.

I was actually having the same issues... What I ended up doing was removing all the APN settings then setting up Automatic APN settings in the Samsung Tools. Much better now. And this was on Mango.
---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:54 PM ----------
I should note - still not quite as fast as some of the other handsets I have... Getting 2.6 Mbps down and .55 up.

[Q] Focus on Europe Orange, which FW is better?

I have a Focus from ATT, unlocked and upgraded to Mango. I really have slow 3g speeds...no matter what hack I use, no clue why...on initial NoDo it was faster...
Is there a generic WP7Rom for Samsung?
Is running Rogers ROM more friendly to the European carriers?

While Rogers Rom is the cleanest and most close to the "stock" Focus rom, if you have an AT&T I suggest you stick with that. Both behave the same with EU carriers, I've tested both.
If your phone is originally on AT&T, you should know that all updates are released by the original phone carrier. Zune passes the phone's IMEI to MS servers, which according to their database, it's on AT&T. Even if you flash Rogers rom, your updates will still come from AT&T.
As for speed, they're exactly the same. Customization is different and as I said, Rogers is cleanest. If you don't care about unlock, you should probably stick with Rogers.

3g speed
I read and read, all hacks done...still 16-18ko/sec...less than EDGE.
I asked the initial question because everything seems out of pace with the ATT rom, GPS data and so on... on NoDO it was behaving great, maybe I should stick to it

What you can do, is go to Diagnosis, and make note of the settings in Mango (I suggest a camera for this). Then go back to NoDo (restore) and compare those. Tedious, but if there's a difference that's where you'll find it.

WTF?
It seems that the WP7 doesn't get well with data connections
Results with T-Mobile in Hannover (No H+ signal):
The same SIM card:
Samsung Galaxy s2 7Mb/S download 1.9 upload-
Samsung Focus Rogers: 0.014 M down 0.01 up
HTC HD7: 1.42 down 0.01 up
Went to O2 store, tried OMNIA7 demo with my sim card---slooowwww
Is the 3G sign supposed to change into something if it gets 3G+?

Not by default. You'd need to edit registry for it to show 3G+ or install Advanced config. and tick a box there.
As per 3G speed, I also have an AT&T Focus and, although it shows 3G+ most of the time, it certainly is slow. I thought it is caused by 3G range frequencies with AT&T not being the same as with Russian providers. But since you report Omnia is behaving the same way I don't know what to think.
Edit. I also suspect Internet Sharing effecting my 3G connection. I think 3G speed was better before I've enabled Internet Sharing.

I really don't know what to say about this issue, it is quite strange.
In the first day I got the Focus, I popped the SIM card inside to take it for a drive ( before rolling back to 7004 to hack it and then Nodo) it behave OK with the internet speed ( I noticed bing and IE were fast). I flashed the 7004 ATT rom and updated to Mango. Then I noticed that it crawls when getting apps from Market place. I tried too install Angry Birds(20 mega) and there were 1% increments every 20 seconds or so. I got puzzled and double checked the web and XDA for info...it is slow as a snail compared to my other phones no mater what I did. I know that this could be subjective also, but really? .01megs/sec?
I am thinking of flashing only the radio from an Omnia7, someone reported that he flashed the whole ROM and it was OK except some buttons were upside down.
Anyway, 2100 3g+ should be the same everywhere... I think that the protocols ( like handshaking,wtc) inside the radio differ among carriers overseas...
Samsung should post a generic ROM for this device....

[Q] Help with data and GSM losses of connection

I own a Verizon Motorola Razr M, bought in ebay to an US seller. I am in Spain and I use Movistar SIM card
The phone came with stock JB 4.1.2, and therefore I could not unlock the bootloader.
I started using it, but it had a problem that I am not been able to solve so far: after some hours of use, with no problems with GSM and data connections, it suddenly looses both connections, although the signals on the status bar still appear. I take care that signals have gone when I take the phone to make a call or surf the web.
I have tried the following procedures:
Change the net settings to GSM/UMTS
I rooted the phone with motochopper 1.1.2 exploit
I installed Safestrap 3.12 in order to be able to install other available locked compatible roms.
I tried these roms, following this thread here in XDA: Clean ROM 1.0. Clean ROM 1.1, Barebone New Base, Stock Deodexed.SDswap-Locked & UnLocked BLs-xt907-9.8.1Q-94-1, but no luck. This last one uses the last radio, but no way.
I also installed the [PATCH][GUIDE] Patch to fully enable GSM on Verizon CDMA Android phones. I could only install it on Clean ROM 1.1 however. It has been impossible to install it on the other ROMS. In any case, no luck again with the patch installed. Here I had a big problem because as I still had these problems, I got into *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer, and touched the band selection option: suddenly, the net showed no signal more and I was unable to make it work again: I finally solved this by installing the stock firmware from here with RSD lite.
No way. I still have this problem and I can not use the phone. I have also tried with another SIM card, but the problem remains. It is a shame because when the connection works, the phone runs very well.
Any help would be very appreciated

The problem also seems to become worse with the use of the phone: at the beginning, coming from a factory reset, It can last some hours before the problem occurs. But since it happens from the first time, it happens more and more frequently and the phone can not be used any more. It seems that there could be a software issue.

Another try disabling fast dormancy
I´ve just disabled fast dormancy, because my operator Movistar apparently does not use this technology.
For this, I have modified 3 lines from build.prop system file, as indicated in another site.
The 3 lines are:
ro.mot.ds.fastdormancy.disable=true
telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=0
ro.telephony.default_network=3
Having fast dormancy enabled when your operator does not support it, seems to drain battery, and could cause other problems. That´s why I´ve done this. I have used root explorer apk from Google store, it is free and it automatically creates a backup of build.prop file when you modify it.
I keep the fingers crossed, let´s see what happens.

Fast dormancy: yes but...
After some days using the phone with fast dormancy disabled (for this, I also added this line to build.prop: ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule=0 ; I read this for ICS Roms, I do not know if this command is also valid for JB, any comment will be welcome), I still get some cuts (less I would say), but at least the phone tries to restart the connections. For this, I have also installed the apk from Google Play called 3g reconnect.
In any case, any comment would be appreciated.

Issue not solved
I still get data and voice disconnections when I use GSM/UMTS or only UMTS modes. They occur ransomly, and they also occur as soon as I use a WIFI connection. I can only use the phone on GSM only mode, which is frustrating.
Any advise?

Hello,
I have tried both: using *#*#4636#*#* or using the usual phone settings. Sometimes I have also checked that the changes made with the usual settings appeared also dialing *#*#4636#*#*.
Yesterday evening, I tried selecting global mode instead of GSM/UMTS and it seemed to work for some hours, but today morming, the problem occured again. So far, the unique way I have found to avoid connection cuts off is using GSM ONLY mode. I have to say that I have tried with 2 different SIM cards but the result is identical.

What booby a trap? How many step into!

I don´t know if I am understanding you. I did that once because I did not know what else should I do to solve the problem. I saw that there was the possibility to choose theoritically between US bands and Cellular, and I entered in that menu. It is not so stupid to try that if you have already tried 100 other ways.
In any case, anybody has an idea about how to solve this problem? I´m sure I am not the unique person having this issue with this phone.

You are saying the problem is now still there. Yet the radio partition is fixed. Please restate what has been fixed with the rsd flash & what remains unfixed.

Well I think I have fixed and solved the problem: I initially copied the APN settings I had with my previous HTC Sensation, because the phone operator was the same (MOVISTAR), the SIM card too, and I have not moved. In these APN settings, the proxy was "undefined" as well as the proxy gate. I wonder if the radio stucks looking for a proxy each time or whatever. I tried yesterday with completely different APN settings, with a concrete Proxy and a gate... and now I have not had any issue in the past 24 hours. I will still wait a couple of days to see if that was finally the reason.
Which in any case would be silly, because I just applied what was working OK with my sensation, but...

New APN settings: let´s see

After several days, the problem is still there. After setting new values in APN, it happens less often, but it still happens. I have to switch to GSM only mode.
2 days ago, I was surfing the net at quite high speed with no interruptions, for half an hour. I then shutted off the screen, on again some seconds later, and the connection was blocked, I had to restart the phone. It has to be a software issue.

I finally sold the phone
After concluding that I could never get rid of this problem, I sold the phone, informing that he would have to use mainly GSM only connection. Great phone otherwise, but with this issue.

This sounds like a Baseband Issue.
Europe I have found baseband:
sm_bp_101031.027.32.81P to be the most stable so far, with no H+ support though.
But most Carriers in Europe don't have H+ or LTE.
That baseband is part of build 9.8.1Q-66
Which can be all downloaded here:

The baseband from 98.16.1 had H+ support in Europe but connections dropped like crazy.
Same with 98.12.4, we remedied that with Aussie Radio at the time.
Maybe this may help some International users with Data and GSM Loss

I'm on 9.8.1Q-94-1(98.30.1.XT907.Verizon.en.US) and wanna use it in Germany. any experiences with the radio compared to the suggested one. Or is there another way to boost the performance of the razr m? Compared to my razr I the signal and data quality is really poor...
edit: my baseband-version is: SM_BP_101032.021.32.80P
edit2: ok... now i've flashed several basebands... and the behaviour of the phone is always the same... with the australian baseband of xt905 it wasn't possible to get an hspa-connection. dunno if its enough just to flash the radio-fw?!?!?
so is there an other way to get more stability in my region? i tried to flash the radio from razr hd retail germany. but i think the razr m don't like it when I fool around. actually I love the mobile, so i don't want to make it angry... your suggestions are very much appreciated...
