Radio Roms, which is which? - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading

I see many at this page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_Radio_1_Upgrade
And i wonder which one should i use...
I currently have 2.19.21
If you do tell me, can you also tell me the pros and cons, such as battery life, and signal strength, as i've read somewhere that the 69 one burns battery

Anyone out there?

No one is out there.. They're all in the WM6 forum flashing new roms.. =)
I've been on this forum for only 6 months and I've seen a lot of new radio roms introduced and I've *never ever* seen a list fixes that the new radio rom has. Usually all the radio roms are stolen from other official device roms (namely Wizard) since wizard and prophet have similar hardware.
So take your pick. There's a lot of anecdotal evidence that says XXX rom causes more battery usage, and YYY rom fixes bluetooth, etc etc...
Best thing for you to do is to just upgrade to the latest one (2.69.21) and see if you run into any "phone" related bugs. When you do, Start downgrading backwards one at a time until you're back to 2.19.21.. =) cause that's essentially what I did.. =)

OK thanks, but I still want to know which is which...

radio roms
ok, for me, here in my country, where my service provider uses 1800 mhz gsm band, i noticed that v2.69 drained my batt.
downgraded to v2.47 (the one provided with the qtek upgrade to 2.2) and it's working very good. and great signal strenght.
it also recognizes the provider's name. that v2.69 did not.
edit:before, the bluetooth didn't work well(file transfers). now it is. but not sure if it is for v2.47, can't confirm.

after downgrade the radio rom to any version, phone will restart.. do i still have to do hard reset?

no need, its separate from the rom

K. Thanks all. So it seems i should use the .47 for now.

after trying all the rom.. only 2.69 seem ok for my prophet.. but if i go indoor, no network! what should be the problem? when outdoor, only got 2 / 3 bar.. then drop to 1 bar.

Try using an older one then...

i already try to downgrade.. tonite im trying again.. with ipl/spl 2.20 and radio rom 2.19. and seem no different. before with 2.69 sometimes got 1 bar.. any other solutions?

Did any of you succesfully flashed their RadioROM with Vista? I've tried every known solution but the RUU keeps crashing.

i managed to, but using vmware with win xp!

I've heard about that solution before, but ehhhh..... how do I get vmware? (I used to think I know everything, but I now challenged my limits... )

what's the maining which is which...

I've heard that any older than 19 doesn't work well with fido, so 19 is fido.

v2.20.21 works the best for fido I've been using 19 for like 6 month and 20 for 5 month, 20 is better.

WM6, no mms

After flashing to WM6 (XDA 1 &2, TNT, Molski) MMS reception is totally gone.
Sending is utterly slow.
Seems a lot of people in Europe have this problem.
Okay, some can't find where to put their settings, but most of them can't get it to work with WM6 and no solution has turned up so far.
Let alone, locating the exact problem.
Seems like it has something to do with not receiving the push notification, but I can't relate that to the radio version (different ones tried).
Has anyone got an idea to what causes this problem?
When I revert to the standard WM5 rom everything works great.
Try upgrading the radio rom but make sure its a Europe one.

It is a Europe one. 2.61 from the orange NL ROM.
So I don't think there's a relation here, but thanx for thinking along

Slightly odd behavior since WM6 upgrade

Hi all
Upgraded to WM6 on my O2 XDA IQ. No problems with install all went great. SInce then though a few people have sent texts that I have not got. It seems to work some of the time. It isn't a particular network or person as I get some from one person then another day I don't get them.
Plus it keeps making the dinging noise (the one it makes on boot up) all by itself. It plays randomly at different intervals, 10 times in a minute some times and then it can go for hours without playing. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!!
It generates this sound at boot up proces when there is a connection problem of wi-fi module. I solved it by changing in the wlan-ip manager th device
Weird. I mean not getting messages shouldn't be a problem in the phone, right? If you get one, you should be getting them all...

That is what i thought, so I rang O2 and they said must be a phone problem which to be honest i thought that was total BS!
Got rid of the dinging noise thanks to makler1981. The wifi was turning itself on when the phone was switched on. Still not sure why it turns itself on but i now know how to stop the bloody noise!
Cheers!
You need to do this modifications in you system registry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TIACXWLN1\Parms]
find there
"HTCDefaultOff"=dword:00000000
change it to
"HTCDefaultOff"=dword:00000001

It was already set to 1. Strange eh? Thanks for the suggestion.... got any more?
I had problems with delayed SMS after a WM6 upgrade as well. More so the ones I sent weren't arriving until hours later, or sometimes not at all.
I do wonder if this maybe was a radio problem, as there are different versions of the radio ROM. See if yours is the most recent (ending in .14 I think).

Problems with radio 1.65.14.06

I have installed the latest ROM that comes with radio 1.65.14.06, and since then I have the following problems:
1. The phone disconnects a lot of times.
2. The WIFI does not detected WIFI networks as before, and has also problems connecting to WIFI networks.
Did any of you have problems like this, and if so how did he solve them.
Same Problems here. I'm Using the Rom with Nothrills GER V3.
I'll try to update the Radiorom to 1.65.17.10

try to flash with other wm6.1 radio.
I already tried the .14.06 and got same issues.
So I switched to that one in my signature - no more problems, just great.
1.65.14.06 works flawlessly
I've tried several radio's, this radio is by far the best even after Chinese fonts were installed, by the way, I am using Chinamobile. Make sure go to start-setting-connections-connections setup, to set up your service provide properly. Soft-Reset couple time will also help.
Where can I download only the radio?
I just downloaded radio 1.64.8.21, I will try to install it and let you know
Do not update to 1.65.17.10.
You can't go back to another Rom!
Probably the Cause for netdisconnect is a broken Mainboard.
My Kaiser will be switched 1-2-1 very soon (48 Hours Provider reaction Time)
Switch your Net to GSM and you won't lose Connection anymore.
I am using radio version 1.65.14.06 and have no problems so far (touch wood!). Yes, I also chose not to upgrade to 1.65.17.10 after reading some issues with it (especially that ou cannot revert back).

Hi, I tried both these and the 1.65.17.10
Both can not be downgraded; and both have issues with connectivity. For me I am in the UAE; I can only make one phone call; the second phone call, there is no sound, and thus I don't hear anyone, and no one can hear me.
Very serious issue, I don't recommend anyone to try it even until there is a fix for this.
1.65.14.06 THE best
It's very unfair that xda has put put an exclusive thread labeling it as problems of 1.65.14.06 Radio.
This is indeed the very best and robust Raido that has ever been produced for Kaiser devices since ancient times.
There are hundreds of reports that this Radio works flawlessly on Kaisers around the world. I recommend that those few who have witnessed issues on their devices, consult with their network operators for correct settings.
Ciao
i use for several weeks this radio (1.65.14.06)with different 6.1 roms and i have no issues at all!!!!
everything works fine bl,wifi,and the battery perfomance is much better than 6.0 radios.
the only issue is that with destinator 6.1 i have to use gps gate to lock gps signal ...
nothing else issue...

Internet Issues after Dutty Wm6.1 WWE Plz Help

I know, I'm supposed to search but I wasn't getting anywhere....
My device (Originally AT&T Tilt)
Now running Dutty WM6.1 WWE 4/29/08 (phone suggests.)
Radio 1.64.08.21
Location NYC
ISSUES:
Internet waaaaaaaay too slow. Never had a problem before.
The 3G (square box) is present and 3g over signal.
Signal- I average 2 to 3 bars TOPS
prior it used to be full
Can someone suggest anything?! Downloading Cab files is slow and or it freezes. My Youtubeplayer.cab doesn't even work anymore because of this problem.
Also...prior to using the Rom..my phone hates the Hollywood/ Beverly Hills area which is my second home.
Thanks in advance.
TheNotSoGeekyGirlAfterAll!
Just thought of something else... why does my touch keyboard and touch keypad stop working after about 10 times?
What's going on??????? I love the Rom but damn too many problems with my device.

1st put on some flame retardant, 2nd you should try duttys thread, not start a new one, how long have you been running this rom, did you hard reset after the first flash, have you tried to reflash, have you tried a different radio, radios make a huge difference base on location, many radio threads out there, and last if it has to many bugs try another rom, i have used this rom and i love it.

Minus the rudeness, you actually helped because I didn't know if it was the rom or radio. And for the record I did search for my specific problem using keywords. I'll try changing the radio because I can connect to the internet..its just edge is faster than my dumb phone. If all else fails, Ill sell the crap.
Thanks for your assistance.

He wasn't being rude, you should post this in the thread for dutty's rom. My guess normally would be that you don't have 3G turned on, rather than a radio or a rom issue, as i remember several of dutty's roms do not have 3g enabled by default. bit apparently you're getting a 3G signal. Have you tried other roms to be sure it's somethign rom specific and not your network? In the future post your questions in the appropriate thread to TRY to reduce the clutter in the forum. Also, it is the xda policy, so there's another reason to do it.

Fuze/Touch Pro Issues

So far my Fuze is amazing, I love it but Im having issues with it and I want to know what I can do to fix these issues.
1) I can't get my phone to go into Vibrate only... I will select it from the list but it just makes the phone silent!
2) My ringtone stops working as in if I call my phone, it only vibrates but my ringtone does not play. Sometimes it does, but lately it doesn't at all and I've checked my settings tons & tons of times. My notification sounds all play perfectly fine.
3) Backlight. If I turn off the backlight sensor/auto management of the backlight and keep the brightness fully cranked or at any setting, once I turn the screen off and turn it back on (just pressing the power button), my screen stays dim unless I go into Power and just tap where my brightness setting is!
Also, is there anyway to for example if Im reading a text message in Portrait mode and I slide open my keyboard to reply to just switch the orientation instead of having to open the message up again?
Thanks

Which RRE ROM version are you using? 4.4.5 SE ?
I believe its the one before 4.4.5
How can I check? I didn't flash it myself, the seller I bough it from flashed it for me before he sent it out.

I have flashed every RRE version that Arup has released and have not once had any of the issues you have noted except the time I had a bad flash. My suggestion to you is to read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448008 and fallow the directions completely and flash the newest version of RRE. I would however go ahead and flash the original official AT&T ROM first just to make sure you don't have any bad blocks. good luck and if you need any help send me a PM.
I was thinking of flashing to the newwest RRE ROM anyways, so I will give it a shot and see if that solves my issues.
Where can I find the original AT&T ROM? Im not on AT&T, Im on Fido in Canada (I know that wouldn't matter, just mentioning)

I thought you were on AT&T. You might want to check your radio version before flashing the AT&T's official ROM. official shipped ROMs usually contain a radio also. if your buddy flashed a different radio onto the device you will lose that radio version and be left with the AT&T stock radio. your radio version should match the one in my signature if it's the stock AT&T radio.
Whats the best/easiest way to check what radio version I have? Also whats the difference in having different radios?
Thanks for all your help!

The radio is what is responsible for your signal. different radios will have different signal strength. To see what radio version you have go to start\settings\system\Device Information
My radio version is 1.10.OliNex.
Does that sound right? Which Radio do you reccomend? Im just at work right now and Im gonna flash it when I get home.

I would probably try and keep the radio version you have on the device currently. I can't really suggest one for you. You have to take a look at the radios listed in the touch pro wiki for your country and test them all out to see which on works best in your area. If you get a good signal and good data transfers using your current radio I would just stick with that one for a while.
Sounds good. Thanks! I will let you know how the flash goes and if that fixes my issues.
