Stock HTC rom and Radio Questions - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De

It looks like the stock HTC rom comes with the radio I already have - 1.27.12.11. I really like the stock HTC rom, but after 3 days of using it on my first Tilt, the phone went belly up after a night on the charger. I think this had nothing to do with the ROM, but I'm still scared now.
Does this mean that my phone network will operate EXACTLY how it does now with the stock ATT rom - 1.57.502.2 - as long as the radio version is the same? I've been through hell with ATT the last week (first week of my service). Phone would not work at my house with full service (neither my or my girlfriends Samsung phone would work, so it was for sure a network issues for them)... So i want to make sure my kaiser stays working.
If it does work exactly the same, should I try to upgrade to the 'better' radio - 1.27.12.17? Is it worth it? Or if it works with the stock HTC rom should I just stay?
This is the only HTC stock ROM right? The one I should use? I'm just worried because my first Kaiser bricked after 3 days of use after flash. It worked fine for those days --->

I am not sure if I am correct here, but from what I have read the AT&T ROMS use different radio drivers, and so a different radio is needed when using the At&T ROM. There is a lot of information about each radio in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349375 (it says which ones will work with HTC ROMS and which ones will work with AT&T ROMS). If you want the AT&T stock ROM, just download it from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1635602&postcount=1 and it will flash the radio that works with that ROM as well.
If you want to flash a different ROM, why not try a ROM that has been cooked, but is not made for AT&T. Q-Mobile or one of Dutty's variants should do. I am using Dutty's and its great. If you like the stock ROM that much, I would just keep it because, like you said, your other phone dying most likely had nothing to do with the ROM.

So, in the end... will the radio 1.27.12.17 (newer radio) work with the stock HTC rom, and should I try it?

Uk T-mobile original SPL / Radio

Hello this is my first post.
I have recently been trying out various WM6.1 roms and now have the issue where I can only use GSM (G3 and HSPDA just don't work)
I have tried various radios and downgrading to a reconstructed stock rom. However nothing seems to work. From reading other threads it seems to be a hardware issue, so I need to restore it back to the original settings for repair.
I have the original OS on now, but need to now put back on the original radio and SPL version; however I don't know which versions these are. Also I have a custom start screen so need to go back to the original T-mobile one as well. Any help on how to do this would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I had a problem like you aswell; after upgradig my sound just went away, even after installing the radio. What I did was flash my TYTN2 with the official 6.1 rom (radio included). It's in of the threads, I don't think it'll take you too long to find it =)
Hope that helps!
I have tried various combinations of the original (6.1 and T-mobile) roms and radios and nothing seems to work.
I think that one of the radio roms may have fried my G3/HSPDA chip. GSM works fine but I bought the phone for hi speed data and now can't use it. If any one knows a software fix for this it would be billiant. However at the moment I think I will have to wait until T-mobile bring out a rom so I can restore the SPL & splash screen from that. (hope that wont be to long)
Any other suggestions welcome as I will try anything to get this problem sorted.

Radio 1.27.12.11 should work fine
How did this finish? Have you sent back your device or did you have it working? Did you find, if yes, where did you find the SPL and Splash screen?
Let me know, thanks in advance!
I decided to wait until the new T-mobile rom came out with proper SPL / Radio, and just stick with GSM.
I couldn't find either the proper SPL or splash screen. I think these need to be extracted from a proper T-mobile ROM.
However after 4 days G3/HSPDA just started working again. I didn't change the rom or radio (just stuck with Sluth's WM6.1). I must conclude that it was something to do with T-mobiles network settings that they resolved.

What ROM do you have? Can be more specific on your current radio and ROM
Rom 1.56.412.4 , actual radio 1.27.14.09 , no camera and no sound, I want to upgrade to radio 1.27.12.32

You can't use another radio with that ROM. You will have to change ROM's if you want to use another radio.
still, it should get to 100%. Radios flash to 99% pretty quickly then it takes a few minutes to go to 100%. I'd wait 20 full minutes from start of flash before I gave up.
I got an answer to the exact same questio here:

Hope this helps!

I found another solution easier, I thought the problem was cause by the sim unlock so I tried to flash the same radio version that was into the tytn II, and worked!!!
After flashing the same version I have flashed the rest of radios without problems.

Most current AT&T Tilt ROM?

I'm having trouble with my Tilt (it recently started being randomly unresponsive to commands (15-20 second lag some times). Is there going to be a new AT&T 6.1 official ROM with updated drivers? My device has the 8-25-07 ROM date, and before I decide what to do I'm checking on the status of official AT&T releases.
No, as far as I know, there isn't an official one yet. However, a lot of the cooked ROMs on this site will probably fix your problem.
If you can't wait for the official ATT WM6.1 release then you could try their latest WM6.0 release http://www.htc.com/us/FAQ_Detail.aspx?p_id=67&act=sd or as mentioned, could try a cooked ROM.
upgrade ur hardspl and the lags/freezes will be gone.

Looks like he is still using an old Stock ATT Tilt ROM (WM 6.0), so that is not likely the issue.
@ gmfeld. If you have had your Tilt for a quote some time, it is possible that you simply have some junk, or orphaned registry settings, or something slowing your system down.
I would recommend either upgrading your ROM to the latest Stock ATT Tilt ROM (as posted above), or simply doing a Hard Reset to get your current ROM back to its original state. Of course, do a BACKUP before you do anything that involves Hard Reset or Flashing!!!1
I just got my tilt and I think I have a newer official version.
It is
ROM 1.62.502.0
Date 01/17/08
Radio 1.27.14.09
I've noticed it has a bluetooth headset issue (not sure if it is exclusive to mine) where it will end the call, but won't hang up in the phone program.
gmfeld & vanisher,
I would suggest you at least run PPCPimBackup then a hard reset. If you have a little time this weekend you should read through G.W.E.N.I. then flash a nice cooked ROM. Play with your device and post educated questions in the proper threads. You WILL appreciate your device more than you ever did...guaranteed.

The above is a noob success story. I would recommend you go the same ROM route as he did as for starters.
There is no official AT&T WM6.1 ROM yet, but we're getting there.
Check the shipped ROMs section on the wiki to see how new / old your ROM is.

Thanks to all for all the suggestions. I've been running SKTools, so I'm pretty sure I've gotten rid of all the junk and orphaned registry settings, etc.
I agree with all that I need to flash a new ROM, or reflash my original ROM, that's the only thing left to do to clean up my Tilt. Just trying to get some info on when or if a new official AT&T 6.1 ROM is to be released, so I don't go through that process twice. If I knew that its a ways off, I will probably then go with one of the cooked ROMS now.

Help With Flashing Radio ROM

Hi there, i'm search all the fourm for Treo750 and find no answer, so finally, I decied to ask.
I new got an Treo750 ATT (Unlocked) and it come with the very rear Radio ROM now which version is 1.17.20.00 (from ROMver 1.16??I don't know)
the problem is, with this radio, i have no internet access and have horriable singal drops, the worest is, it often sleep in to dead(like o2 xda flame).
So, I first tried changed the OS rom, but I flashed all roms all versions--from Offical to wm6.1, no luck...the problem still have.(I kick out the radio rom part from Offical ROM, see below for reason)
I don't know if there is something wrong with the hardware but I do have those steps below:
Flash OS rom, SPL, HardSPL,Radio
ONLY THING THAT I DIDN'T change was the Radio ROM, first I cannot flash it.
it always stucked at 0%, and wait for 45mins, still 0%. I restart the device, reflash the radio less OS rom, startup, and radio don't change, the problem still have....
I tried everything, form offical rom with radio, even the Cheetchunlocker radio patch, SD/ActiveSync. All operation realted to flash the radio will result a hang....
BTW: I'm working in China, and will last for years.... I really have to change the radio to compatible with the China Mobile GSM....

[Q] Help trying to get friends Rogers Nexus S back to stock(ish)

So my friend has a Nexus S that he bought from Rogers, using on Rogers etc. He put CM7 on it a while ago, didn't really like it so he tried to go back to stock as much as possible but is having some issues. I tried to help last night, but holy smokes there are alot of different radios and versions out there. It was so much easier when I had my nexus one compared to this (or so it seems to me). Anyways, for a Rogers user, what is the best (or most current) radio to use? He has tried the UCKD1 and B2 I believe, but had problems with not getting 3G. And even when he did get those on, and tried to install the OTA update, the update crapped out on him. I'm not 100% sure his phone is the I9020A version (it seems that way for ROgers though).
So I guess I will summarize some questions, that was a bad paragraph there.
1. What is the best (most current) radio to use for Rogers?
2. Can I combine the radio from Q1, with the current stock rom (2.3.6) and just flash with CWM recovery or fastboot?
3. Can someone verify the model number (I9020A)?
Thanks for the help!
search through the radio thread for Rogers to see what others ate using. You can determine your phone model by looking at the label under your battery.
