nice work all of the people here that have time sharing their knowledge, i just got one question if you dnt mind, what is better ROM if you live in some part of asia(philippines), the version xx.12 or xx13?,and also what's a better RADIO version also xx.12 or xx.13?
And what's a GOOD combination= ROM xx.12/RADIO xx.13 or ROM xx.12/RADIO xx.12 or ROM xx.13/RADIO xx.13 or ROM xx.13/RADIO xx.12.
i've tried the combi ROM xx.13/RADIO xx.13, and something happen,my xdamini "TEMPERATURE" got higher,it's always WARM,but before, when i'm using combi ROM xx.12/RADIO xx.12,it's ok.(i put it back again NOW to ROM-.12/RADIO.12), but some people sez that RADIO xx.13(better battery life) is better than xx.12, and some also sez that ROM xx.13(better network coverage) is better than xx.12.
quite confusing!, i want the BEST for my mini, and also for saving some battery life. Hope SOMEBODY could help me with this one!
tnx in ADVANCE
ANYONE?, ANYBODY?
I'm completely satisfied with rom 1.13WWE & radio 1.12 for 6 months now. Better batterylife & more stable than with rom 1.11.
Just my 2C
TNX OLTP, you light up my life,gonna test it NOW!!!!
I like radio 1.13 better. I use a vivanco BT headset and with radio 1.12 the incoming sound was terrible. With 1.13 no complaints anymore.
So I guess, only when you have a good reason (like I did) you should upgrade to 1.13.
Hi mr-who,
Which BT device from Vivanco have you exactly? I got a BT22D & indeed the sound could use some improvement, if you got the same I'm going to try radio 1.13.

Hi oltp,
Indeed I have the BT22D. Bought it for E 24.95 at Steenweg in Utrecht. I know it is not the most expensive headset, but the incoming sound was a bit choppy. Using radio 1.13, the sound improved a lot. Give it a try and let me know!
Bought it @ a local shop in Arnhem for the same price. The sound isn't exactly choppy, it's more the background noise that's annoying. Anyway I'm going to give it try this week.
Thanks for the tip.
Hi, everybody, with the test i've done and with the reply you post, i have studied and conclude that the version 1.13 RADIO is mostly compatible on most european countries,and the RADIO 11.12 is most compatible on south east asian countries.
the test i've did is comparing the mini with my bluetake i-phono bluetooth headset and testing the reception or signal of the network. BOTH RADIO 11.13 and 11.12 are fine, no problem when calling, listening to music, ect., but the one thing i observe,is that there is a big difference on the temperature of my mini,when i use RADIO 11.12 and the bluetooth is always on,the TEMP of my mini is fine,but when i tried the 11.13,it's kinda WARMER,actually when your listening to music it's normal that the mini is getting warm,but not WARMER or even i dnt use bluetooth and listen to music it's still WARM.
My conclusion is maybe we have a different network signal here in my country compare to others,that's why maybe the're still no available or no available 11.13 updates at all for asian coutries. hope this may help someone quite confuse like me.
and also tnx to OLTP,it's true that the ROM version 1.13 is better battery life saver. that's it! :wink:
wow great
Thx dude for your input. was searching around here for the coments on how the radio rom version differs with one another.

Hi I am running NBD v.8.3 wm6 on my mda and I am just hoping someone could tell me what the best possible combination is to create the strongest signal and create the best reception.
I have been using the T-Mobile 2.69.11 radio and was not entirely satisfied. It seemed quieter for some reason and some people could not hear me as well as with the standard T-Mobile 2.26.11 radio.
Right now I am using the Cingular 2.47.11 radio with the XDA Cingular WM6 Radio Fix2 and my signal seems a little stronger. Like when I would be sitting here at my computer, I would only have like 1 bar with the 2.69.11 radio but now I have 2 but that still isnt good enough for me.
Is there any other combination that I have missed or a better radio out there? If anyone has any ideas, please post and let me know.
hey i got the same problem.. i have the tmobile mda and i think reception sucks, i would lose reception while just sitting in my house and at work. so wat i did.. is i flashed my fone with the tmobile 2.26 offical rom and than i flashed it with the XM6r3 rom just cause it works great for me and than i flashed it with the T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radinly ROM and so far it seems to be working great for me i'll have 1 or 2 bars at home but i havent lost reception yet... so give it a try and let me know how it goes..
The T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radinly ROM is the best I've used. I'm even using it now with the latest official Cingular ROM for the 8125 (Wizard 100)
what about the2.47 Cingular one
I cannot find the radio ROM 2.47 anywhere, can you guys help me and as far as 2.19 T-mobile UK only how is the battery life on your phone ?
Thanks

Thank you I checked the post and he does not have that but I also searched the forum and no one posted the file but a good number of people refer to using it. I will check the pantry and see what is there

I have the file saved on my windows laptop...if you can't locate it PM me and I'll upload to rapidshare or something like that for you to get it.
I think there is still a radio rom directory on the XDA ftp and it might be in there.
I found it and I others as well 2.19/2.21/2.25/2.40/2.47/2.69
here is the Link

Hi guys!
Is there any documentation, or just some user white papers, of what the difference between the diff. radio roms are? Does anyone even know, beyond the observation of which one gave their particular phone better reception? I'm curious just for the sake of knowledge
I'm running the 2.25.11 radio rom, on my Cingular 8125, and it works good, but lately I've missed/ignored a couple calls and my phone doesn't have the "missed call" icon on the top bar, my Phone program registers a missed call though.
I want to load up different radio roms and see which one works the best though, however I can't remember the instructions on doing that to my G4 CID-Locked phone. I've been looking around the forums and can't find it. Anyone point me in the right direction?
EDIT: I found the thread I was looking for. This thread talks about another radio rom and a utility to use on G4 phones, which can be found here.
Question for any knowledgeable people reading this. Can the G4 utility mentioned in the other thread I linked to, be used to load cooked roms too? Or is it safe to just load radio roms with it only?
I've tried them all and I've found the 2.61 radio rom to have the best signal.

I haven't seen any difference in battery drain, using power drain in batterystatus(latest build).

I like the cingular stock radio 2.25.11
For me 2.47.11 radio rom works best.....Goodyear Az AT&T
I loaded 2.61 and haven't seen any difference. I may play with the radio roms later. I loaded the bundle referenced earlier. I wonder how much difference a ROM can really make on radio reception though. Still, an interesting experiment.
Yo all! Take a look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=306296
Thanks Wizeman! A good thread. He did is homework, it appears.
I've loaded the ROM he recommends but don't see any differece of note. Although a marginal difference would be difficult to see without a more scientific method than mine.
My desk is located where I will get and lose the signal - mostly no signal at all. I still see the occassional signal capture but no more than usual. Again, not very scientific. Nonetheless, I'll use the 2.19 since it doesn't appear to have any less performance and somebody has some measurements to support the case for this ROM.
I am confused though, since signal level is a hardware measurement (electrical measurement) and not a software issue. Oh well.
I am the one who did the measurements starter of that topic and of course still using 2.19.11
Oops ... didn't look, just read the post! I'm sure it was good for a chuckle though.
2.19.11 - Best Radio ROM
Undoubtedly, 2.19.11 is the best radio ROM for reception. I was always alternating between 1 bar and no signal at my work with 2.15 and now with 2.19.11, I have atleast 2-3 bars at all times. I am on T-mobile network.
I had numerous missed calls before but since the last 2 days after changing to 2.19.11 I haven't had one.
Hi all masters in the forum
I started this to learn more about all diferent radios existing for Uni, and to know from the ones with more knowledge wich has best signal, best batery consumption, etc.
Hope you all be interested in this
Thanks!
Gracias
For me the best radio version is 1.15.00, no crashes no signal lost, for the time with 1.18.00 i have a lot of problems, in one way it also depends and from mobile operator
1.18.00 also gave me nothing but trouble. 1.15.00 and 1.17.00 are by far more stable and crashed but a handful of times on me. That was on a WM 6.1 ROM though and I am not even sure if it really was due to the radio or main ROM. That said, I am not sure if any of the upgrades ever brought any increase in radio performance. The general advice here really is "if it ain't broken don't fix it" because there is (nearly) nothing to be gained.
I'm using radio 1.18.00 here with original T-Mobile UK WM5 from 2005 (3 years ago!). No problems whatsoever.

Hi everyone. Excellent place here. VERY helpful, and the information flows like wine!
I bought a at&t tilt, i have sim unlocked it, and installed about 4 different roms. I have ended up going back to 1.56.405.5 (radio 1.27.12.11) standar HTC rom version. I like it the best.
However, i am having a hard time figuring out info about the radio. The battery life doesnt seem to be the greatest. And my wifi signal strength is shockingly bad, or so it seems anyway.
Am i able to use a better radio with this rom? Can someone recommend something that will will work without any problems, but will be an actual improvement radio?
I've read the wiki, and have tried searching, but like a lot of other people, it almost overload of info. I would really appreciate it, im going out of town, and having this thing run at bettter performance would really make me happy.
I appreciate any recommendations!
ive been using the niki radio in my signature (downloadable in the wiki) in eastern us and have had no problems. letting everyone know where you are would help in recommending a radio
There are a whole bunch of radios, and there is no clear cut winner. As long as your radio is compatible with your rom, then you gotta test out of all the radios compatible with your rom, which one works the best.

to be honest dude radio performances vary by region; something that works great for me here in mclean, va USA probably might not work great for you. It really is just a lot of experimenting with different radios until you find one that gives you good reception and battery life. I believe that the stock htc rom is wm 6 so any wm6 radio will be compatible with the rom; just need to try, try, and try again to see what works best for you.
If you live around metro dc try the radio in my sig... but wait thats a windows mobile 6.1 radio so don't

My cellular reception is actually really nice! my main issue, is this: i live in a condo, and last night, i went out on my balcony. i was about 15 feet diagonally away from my linksys wrt54GL router, and i wasnt getting ANY wifi. the only thing seperating my phone and router was the wall.
gps signal seems great, with Garmin. Google maps however, i cant get to find a satellite to save my life!
So what everyone is saying is that noone really knows. Im in Miami using T-Mobile and i just installed HardSPL and it worked like a charm. Now i want to install a new rom and theres a bit too much info for me to untagle at this point. So far i gather that some rom's come with different and changable radio versions built in while others work with only 1 version. Now im curious.... how does one install and change these radio settings?
can i just download one and install it?
is there any thread or some sort of complied radio proformances by region? how do these radio versions differ by regional location? i have so many questions....

seems like everyone has got a radio question today but here is my answer to help u:
u need to flash a radio like u flash a rom. when u download a radio it has the customruu.exe w/ it. key is to remember one thing: wm6 roms work w/ wm6 radios and wm6.1 roms work w/ wm6.1 radio only. most roms will work with different radios unless the chef specifically has it matched to one radio only.
for more info plz read kaiser wiki.
p.s. while flashing radio ur phone has to be sync w/ pc
>> I have ended up going back to 1.56.405.5 (radio 1.27.12.11) standar HTC rom version. I like it the best
radios 1.27.xx.xx are the only that will be compatible with WM6.0 ROM. Newer 1.5x.xx.xx and 1.6x.xx.xx radios will cause the following issue:
You are going to lose multimedia sound completely: no ringtones, etc, etc.
In call sound will be likely still functional, but I don't belive that this is something you are looking forward to anyway.
I cannot recommend you the best radio for you ROM, but some would say that : 1.27.12.32 is the one.
I hope it helps.
I'm using dutty's rom WM6.1 WWE Rom. I havent changed the Radio yet. I've been using the ROM for about 2 months now and everything was working fine. But recently my phone won't ring. I can still make and receive calls though. Could the problem be because I haven't changed the Radio?
Hi there!
I got a WM6.1 ROM and RadioRom 2.19.21 .
In the last few days I always have people complaining about echoes when talking to me. On the Prophet side there´s good quality.
I am not sure if it could be the RadioROM, which I downgraded a few days ago because of everybody in this forum saying this one would be the best one. Don´t know exactly if the problem is since then.
Is there any chance of fixing any reg settings or something like that to get better quality for the other calling party?
maybe it is your radio rom. which 1 was it before you changed? some people say 2.19 is better but i'm using 2.69 with no problems at all. so try & change the radio rom to something else. apparently with radio roms it is trial & error
I had the 2.69 before but had more battery drain. So I tried to change to the 'older version'.
I wasn´t sure if the echo comes from the radio ROM or the Windows Version.
Will try to go back to 2.69 then. Thanks for your response.
HI!
I'm from Portugal and i'm using Vodafone PT operator.
Can anyone please help me and let me know if my radio is the best for my country and operator? Or what radio can i install to have the best performance!
Thanks!!
well....
Before your thread gets closed....
I personally prefer FM, but some things you can only get on AM. I'd say go with FM for music, and AM for talk.
...It helped very much
Thanks for nothing
i am sorry but THAT was funny tell you what...
http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/posting
WTF! xD
you are all crazy!
Talking about serious things...
I've changed to a stock ROM and the battery don't drain in hours but my Raphael longs 2 days until charge again. Now i just need to know if there's really a solution to Energy ROM because if i don't put a Sim card in the energy ROM the phone longs a few days with the same charge.
Thanks again
I think the radio of 1.14.25.35 is the best.
