Where can I get Radio Stack ROM for SX-56? - General Topics

Hello!
My SX-56 was toasted during the upgrade process like so many others. I was going to WM2003 when this happened. Now I have no radio stack at all. I can use the ROM images for the PDA side from here, but does anyone know where to get an acutal ROM image for the Radio Stack? I have the Wallaby boot loader v 5.15, and the radio stack upgrade utilities don't work, presumably because there is no radio stack. Help!

no radio-stack after rom-upgrade

Hi!
It's the first time I'm posting here, but after some days of search, I've found a lot about upgrading / downgrading, but nothing about my problem.
I've an MDAcompact / T-Mobile PM10A / Austria and tried to upgrade to BigStorage-Rom according this thread: " Magician to 1.13 + 1.13 Radio + BigStorage ALL-IN-ONE Guide ". I've backed up my original Rom, but after the flash, there was no radio-stack at all (booting device: "no GSM" on display).
I've tried to update the radio-stack again - error message: 114 - error upgrading radio-stack, the same with 1.12 and 1.13. I've tried to downgrade the rom to 1.12 - ok, but no radio-stack. I've tried to restore the original Rom via SD-card in bootloader-mode - device says: not allowed.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance!
did u try to use an origional rom? i mean a non Bigstorage rom upgrade ? because that should fix the problem ( atleast i think it shoud)
Try Downloading the origional t-mobile1.13 rom and upgrade ur device using that install file . If i am not mistaken the first thing that is upgraded is ur radio stack then the extended rom and finally the operating sytem ( if u upgraded u would see that it does it in 3 steps).
I've tried that. As soon, as I upgraded to the original rom from T-Mobile, it stopped at the radiostack-upgrade. After that, I opened the "original".exe-file from T-Mobile with winrar and tried to upgrade again, but without the "radio.nbf"-file, what was no problem. After that, I tried to update with the "radio.nbf"-file (stand alone) again, but the "error 114"-statement came up again.
I got this error before, but only because I flashed my device with the wrong ROM.
(...I once misread "Universal" as a meaning and not as a device codename, and flashed the wrong Radio stack. Thing worked, but radio invalid, no phone capabilities. Fortunately, a reflash with the correct radio ROM found here saved me. And my $300 investment. -.-)
Either the radio part of the ROM's accidentially corrupted (download again), or the radio driver is incompatible with your device hardware. I'm not aware of Minis being avaliable in anything other than GSM tho...
I downloaded the original rom-version from the official T-Mobile website. Fact was: up/downgrade of the rom itself "ms_.nbf/nk.nbf" no problem (I've extracted the exe-file via winrar to a folder and made that several times to up/downgrade), but update of the radio-stack "radio_.nbf" not possible, ended in error 114. The point is: as soon as I start the update-utility, it shows the "Device CE Image version", "Device Extended Image Version" but no "Device Radio Image Version", it looks like no radio-stack is installed at all.
I got that exact same error through the aforementioned Universal ROM debacle (-.-). Radio failed to flash, no radio at all.
There should be a standalone radio stack somewhere in the FTP for magician. I know I saved mine with the 1.12.00 version. Try flashing with that, there's a file inside that allows you to bypass the version detection IIRC (which allows a from-scratch flash). Flashing a standalone radio stack will hard reset your system, but otherwise will not touch anything else.

help who got the radio part offset of apache?

I flash my XV6700 and damaged the radio, when boot, it saids radio: No. So i want to recover the radio part via MTTY. But anybody please tell me the RADIO ROM OFFSET and size in Mtty.
radio fix
I know this is an old post but I'll update anyway.
it's possible you may have blown the radio on the upgrade.
However I would make an attempt to install a current radio rom.
those can be found at ppcgeeks.com
I'm running the radio 1.41 and am on Verizon.
If you are using Sprint try the 1.27
Another question

Frome sprint,verizion,apache,utstarcom,etc.. Same thing everytime. I am at a lost for words any opitions. Any ideas or is it dead?? Thanks from a newbie Chris

Does GPRS work for you on WM6?

Ok, simple really, answer the poll and if GPRS DOES work for you post your EXACT radio version and network provider and IE connection settings as a reply below

Working after upgrading to radio version 4.1.13.28_02.61.01.
Ukrainian provider UMC.
hmm everything is clear now .
People with radio 4.1 have working GPRS (edge too? )
and with 4.0 not.
How do I upgrade my radio? Should I flash a rom with radio and then come back to WM6 or somehow separately?
Just flash a rom with radio after flashing WM6.
and then go back to WM6..? could you please point me to rom with right radio? and my device (SPV C600) is rather Qtek 8300 or 8310?
I'll package radio version 4.1.13.28_02.61.01 with the update in about an hour.
Will update the first post when I've updated it
Phil
You mean a Tornado WM6 Rom with better radio? Cool!
will i have to do once more to format binfs via teraterm? and then run ruu?
You can actually just upgrade the radio ROM, it wont affect your WM6 OS
i don't have a radio rom
where we can get only radio rom?? because i don't want flash all ROM again
revanmj said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
jm012a9749 said that it will be available in an hour
but i understand that he pack radio update with entire rom and i want only radio update
You can find it in this forum, search the Tornado thread, few pages back, I just searched for it yesterday. I am only afraid the link to the radio is down due to inactivity. Well, downloading a 30-40MB file which he packed wouldn't take that long right?
I'm posting an updated ROM with it which should address the Audio issues people are experiencing, also some cabs for T9, Comm manager, Task manager and clear storage. So it IS worth flashing the entire ROM again.
Phil
After update GPRS works ;]
my mobile operator is Orange Romania, radio version is 4.1.xx,and my gprs connection it's working.
I have the updated WM6 ROM with the updated Radio. Both GPRS and Edge is working. But sometimes it can not connect to GRPS and I have to restart all the radio components.

Radio 4.1.13.28_02.61.01
KPN netherlands.
Working on Orange and TMob UK, albeit with the GPRS/Voicemail problems described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1381997&highlight=gprs#post1381997
can someone help me set up my gprs settings for o2. i dont know what my access points are etc.

[RADIO SPARK_W] SparkW Radio Collection (Verizon Trophy CDMA) [Updated 04-14-2012]

The following radios are for Spark_W (Verizon Trophy CDMA) only. Do not attempt to flash these to a GSM Trophy (meaning any Trophy NOT branded by Verizon Wireless).
To flash these radios, you must already have HSPL installed! Click here to find out how!
You only need to pick the radio you want, and flash it. That is all that is required.
I have been able to successfully extract the original shipping radio, and the radio update for Mango (v1) to files that can be flashed to the Spark_W (Verizon Trophy CDMA) without flashing an entire rom. This is really nifty for when you downgrade your SPL to 1.03 using the method described in my downgrade thread, and you are forced to use the shipping radio. Now you have the option to flash a newer radio (and for myself, the v1 Mango radio works much better than the shipping NoDo radio).
To check what radio you currently have installed on your phone, you can either enter the bootloader by shutting down your phone, then pressing vol-down + power when starting the phone, or by navigating to Settings=> About Phone=> More info.
In my own personal testing, I did not get any factory reset by flashing these radio files. If your phone factory resets flashing these radios, navigate to Settings=> About Phone=> More info and post what hardware version you are using. All testing on my own phone was done on hardware revision 003.
The flashing software included with these radio's is a newer version that doesn't ask a bunch of questions! Once you have put your phone into bootloader mode, run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe and it will automatically start flashing the radio to your phone!

[B]Third Mango shipping Radio from official 8107 rom. ([U]Mango v3 Radio[/U])[/B]
I hope for those of us already testing custom HSPL roms on Spark_W that this will be a huge help. I personally get much better reception all around with the later radio (at least in CDMA). Please feel free to comment on CDMA/GSM reception of each radio, etc!
I am surprised no one has created a thread like this for Spark GSM radios. The method of extraction is simple. (Use OsBuilder to extract rom image. In settings put SPAW1000 ID and check radio.nb and uncheck os.nb. Build rom.. on other phones you'd replace the ID with whatever is required).
Now, get testing these radio's out and give feedback!
*edit* I'm not sure if Mango v2's drivers included a radio update. I will have to flash back to stock and confirm sometime this week, unless someone running and up-to-date stock rom can tell me?
*edit 2* [04-01-2012] It's not joke, I added Mango v2 radio. Best radio I have used so far.
*edit 3* [04-14-2012] Added Mango v3 radio from 8107 official Verizon rom (RUU_Spark_W_S_VERIZON_WWE_2.04.605.02_Radio_NV_0215_NV58008_RELEASE.exe available in football's rom thread). Yes, I know the version number is lower and it isn't a typo this time! That is the reported version! It's also notable that this radio is larger in size then previous versions!
Yes there is a newer radio with the Mango V2 Drivers.
OS Verison: 7.10.7720.68
Firmware revision number: 2305.13.20110.605
Hardware revision number: 0003
Radio Software Version: 1.53.00.12.01_23.17w.05.13U
Radio hardware version: 3.23.D4
Bootloader version: 2.1.230513.10
Chip SOC version: 2.3.0.5.13
It's no joke, I added the v2 Mango radio today. I didn't realize that Football had released a Mango v2 official rom, so I extracted it from that.
Thanks for these. Bumped my phone up to Mango v2 yesterday without any problems. Whether my reception improved or not, I can't tell, but it certainly didn't get worse so hooray!
Minor thing: you typoed the version number of the Mango v2 radio. It's 1.53..., not 1.52...
Fixed on both link and filename on mediafire. Thanks.
football just released a brand spankn' new stock rom. I'm going to see if it has a new radio (Mango v3 radio?).... lets see.
SPL downgrade
If you do the SPL downgrade, do you have to install the radios in order or can you jump right to mango v2?
The radios' flash just like roms, so you do not need to install each one at a time. Pick the radio you want and install.
As a side note, I have attempted to install the Mango v3 radio using this method recently, but no luck. I'll have to take a closer look this weekend when I have time.
Newest Mango v3 radio posted from official 8107 rom. I have no clue why the versioning is a lower number, i checked and rechecked to make sure it was correct!
My personal experience so far, is that this radio performs similar to Mango v2.
Yeah, I saw that lower number and wondered why I would want that, but if it's from the official release, I guess I'll try it. Thanks for your work.
Yeah, worst case scenario is that you can switch back. Since flashing a different radio is easy, no biggie. I'm glad we have THIS many choices for radios even though only one carrier carries SparkW.
Thanks for this !!!!
I would like to add that 1.53.00.02.15_23.17w.05.13U Manga v3 radio may also be part of added support for CMAS or Commercial Mobile Alert System. CMAS was added to the operator package of the Verizon Mango v3 driver:
From: 438ABF0C-B691-4259-A742-1F224FA3B5BA.rgu
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\ShortMsg\Settings]
"CmasOperatorEnabled"=dword:1
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ShortMsg\Settings]
"CMASAlertOption"=dword:1
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\SMS\Broadcast]
"TestPort"=dword:4370
These are the new registry settings, and they did not exist before.
1.53.00.02.15_23.17w.05.13U might be required for this to work, but I have no idea how to tell. It's an interesting feature so you'll need to check your registry to see if it is enabled. I know DFT Freedom doesn't have it (yet), I'm not sure about ansar's roms since I haven't tried it yet.
I updated my wife's park_w to Tango via Zune (bone stock phone) and she has a even newer radio on it, in-case you want to find it and add it to the list
Still no official stand alone rom from Football. Unless he or someone else releases one, I have no easy way to extract radios.
I looked into finding the radio files in the rom update.cab files... but its a bit dangerous even if I could find it. :/
Unlock
My phone is Verizon Trophy with locked sim, If I flash any of those radios will I get carrier unlock?
