dont waste ur money
May I suggest flashing new radios.
My T-Mobile carrier in North Atlanta Georgia must've have did something to the local towers. For awhile I was using a radio that had full signal, untill two weeks ago, it only had two bars. After flashing a new radio, I had full bars. I flashed the old radio agian to make sure because it was the radio with the battery life, but it went down to two bars.
Make sure you have a correct radio, ie. radio for 6.0 or 6.1.
Just do a search, plenty of information, and this questions have a lot of answers.
By the way, those stick on antenna boosters don't work.
my rom versionis 3.03.405.0wwe
radio is 1.64.06.04
and also I tried 1.64.08.21
but It did not working well.
maybe I have to wait until HTC publish new radios, or all the HTC phones have pretty wake signals compare with nokia even with samsung.
thanks all your helps!

I'm in Atlanta, Georgia, US.
Radio 1.64.08.21 with 3.08.161.0 full bars.
Has the signal always been weak? On Monday, a T-Mobile tower was off for maintenance that whole day.
I am in Sydney, and useing the Three network (this company use Wcdma and GSM combination solution).
my phone is T-mobile version MDA.
maybe the version kaiser not working very well in my network.
lol, i was kidding about the cell phone booster thing, they dont work at all. just one question.......how is it that u are so sure that the kaiser has a weaker signal compared to your nokia or samsung?
because now I have three phones with me one for nokia N73, the other for samsung i600, last one is HTC kaiser. in the same place, almost sametime(I have to change the simcard) they shows different signal sutuation. for instance, kaiser only got one signal, samsung got 4 out of 5, Nokia got full.
when I use kaiser to make a phone call, in my room, sometimes it has been cut down because of low signal problem, it didnot happen for samsung and nokia.
therefore, I indicate kaiser has poor signal compare with samsung and Nokia.
and I wanna fix it as well. becasue kaiser is such a cool phone include all kind of functions.
the radio needs to change thats all test the radios till you find urs thats it.
hopefully, I can find one
I already tested
1.27.12.17
1.27.12.32
1.64.06.04
1.64.08.21

You saying you tested both 6.0 and 6.1 roms. Since its a dual mode, go to Phone -> Band -> under Network Type, make sure its automatic. If not, I suggest just get a new phone.
I think the htc devices do have weaker reception than some other phones. I have had xv6600, 6700, and now tilt - all have worse reception than the phones my wife (moto rzr) and kids (lg venus, enV) have. Also my colleague at work gets a data signal on EDGE with his iPhone and I get no data at all at that location (4 bars for voice, rssi ~ 25-27).
Changing radios hasn't made any difference for me rssi values and #/dB of cells in fieldtest are always the same. I haven't studied the fieldtest program in depth, but that might be a way to objectively compare things.
nothing like that no diffrent than the others i have had quite a few my self i see drop signals after i flash but when i find the correct one its all good.
in your experiances, which radio has the best reception?
I have tried so many different radios with Dutty's latest 6.1 rom, and all of them continually drop calls. IS there a a Rom & radio combo that works efficiently in the uK?? I mean, dropping calls is a deal killer no matter how fun these roms are??
I have never upgraded to the 1.65 terror radio yet, and plan not too. Just looking for advice as thread searching has not worked out so well. Right now I am on 1.58.16.27, the last 1.58 had no GPS, but both drop calls within minutes.
Any advice appreciated
Have you tried the 1.64.08.21?
trying it now
will report back tonight!
phone rings, data & gps too: NO SOUND
Another disastrous radio. What is wrong? Could it be this rom?
same here, sometimes, only me could hear the voice from the other end, but they couldn't hear me, it happens after several minutes talk. some times, it disconnect from beginning, hell of it. 1.64.08.21
dropped calls are usually due to the phone service. How many bars are you picking up in your area? If you have 1-2 bars, I guarantee you will get a lot of dropped calls. If you try a stock T-mobile Vario III rom, do you get better possibilities? If this is the case, you might have to play around with the operator settings. I always get dropped calls in my house because of the low reception. I live in an area sorrounded by a lot of hills, so it's difficult to pick up certain coverages. When I go to work on the other hand, I never get a drop call. Hopefully this info can help you find a better solution to your problem.
had the wrong radio
I was using 1.65.14.06=disaster, let's see what 1.64.08.21 does. will report back
My mistake, please delete.
No Problems with UK T-Mobile here
I am have only recently upgraded my trusty Hermes (Vario II) to this Kaiser (Vario II) and here in the Swindon area and during journeys in the car have had no problems at all. In fact this Kaiser phone is far clearer that the Hermes ever was - I have tried 3 radio ROMs and all are great. I get a useable GPS lock within 30 secs without running GPS test too.
So I cannot agree with your comments about T-Mobile and the radios - could it be some other software that you are using? Is the radio poor as soon as you have the new OS ROM and new Radio ROM?
I use T-Mobile UK and I don't have these issues either. I have tried lots of ROM's in the last few weeks and all have been fine. I get the occasional "I answer the call but can't hear them" but I get that on my Imate 8150 also, so I think its a reception issue.
I'm currently using Laurentius26 V4 ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=389915 and radio 1.64.08.21 included in that ROM. The ROM is very good indeed, fast and stable, and the radio is as good as any I have used. Perhaps you had a dodgy ROM flash mate?
So far 1.64 08 21 : Data, GPS, & Voice work
Just need to wait a and try a bunch of calls to see if they stick or drop.
I am glad that radio works so far for you. Hopefully that one won't give you any problems, it seems to be one of the most stable radio's out there.
Hey up there, I have been using NoThrills Rom W6.1 with 1.65.14.06 radio, had no problems at all, good GPS and good battery life. The rom is quick too, and I'm from the UK
No probs here.
im on t-mobile uk.using 1.64.08.21-no problems,good gps,good signal... i had before 1.65.XXXX and i had problems with droped calls...
As i stated in topic name i hawe this problem whit my Xda O2 exec (Htc universal)
The other side nearly cant hear while i hear them crystal clear.
I browsed this forum to find a cure and i think i found something.
While i was on google some people also had this problem it seems to be caused by my Radio version.
I beg u help me whit this problem i hawe this Device as my main phone and i need it in my job.
Its a pain in the ass while my boss calls me to ask about work in progress and he cant hear me
I hawe browsed this forum but cant find any working link to Radio 1.15 (i heard that is wery stable and has not these issues) please could anyone upload it to rapidshare?
Many thanks in advice
Here You Go.

Radio flashed but the problem is still there
Today i will try to flash the radio to something else.
Wish me luck.
If you manage to find solution please share your experience with us, because I have the same problem... I tried many radio and Windows roms... In my experience forcing processor to work at constant frequency (520MHz) and deactivating frequency throttling help to reduce problems but doesn't remove it completely... try to use performance applet (you can download it in form of .cab file) and fix the frequency...
Its like pain in the ass man
I still did not found any solution.
Right now i installed new rom and the problem is still there.
I will try WM5 maybe that will fix the problem.
If i find a solution i will sure post it.
I've also had the same problem. I disconnected my BT headset, did a SR and the problem disappeared. Later this day I connected my BT headset and the problem didn't show up so far. On the other hand I noticed my device got somehow extremely sluggish. It took around 10 minutes to install HTC Home VGA! What's more, it was overclocked to 624MHz Oo'
Topic update:
I am currently trying to get new Gsm antenna.
I will try to replace my and then we will see if that helps.
If not i will order a new motherboard.
My Experiences with the very same problem
Hi there,
I have Two Uni's. One is G3 other is G4. I also have two sim cards from two different operators one is GSM 900 other is GSM 1800.
My main Sim is GSM900 one and when I realized I have problem, first I thought its the coverage and operator. Switched the sim cards (put GSM 1800) problem disappeared. Then I though I will put another operators GSM900 card and try. I still had the same problem (I had full signal whlie testing all three operators).
Then googled, searched the forum, and figured that its caused by Radio version. I installed "problem free said" version 1.15 but my problem still persisted.
Today I'm still having this issue. What I did was to use GSM1800 in Uni and GSM 900 in my other phgone Benq E72. İt works perfect now. (However it is not the solution, I would like to use my GSM900 card with UNI).
To sum up, I tested in two different UNI's. One is G3 other is G4. I tested with total of three operators sim cards two is GSM900 one is GSM1800. I tested with different ROMS and RAdio ROMs, including 1.09, 1.15, 1.17, 1.18. I always had the problem when I use GSM900 cards in both G3 and G4 units with different radio ROMs. Problem disappeared when I use GSM1800 sim.
So I don't think its your motherboard or antenna. It might be Radio ROM related (let me know if you find a stable, trouble free ROM) or it might be a hardware design flow oıf UNI.
Hope that helps.

perhaps your mic is at fault
First i also thought that it is the microphone but then i tested it.
I did let it record some music and it was crystall clear.
Before a minute i tryed my brothers sim card and it had also this bug.
Will try to find some ultra old card.
GSM 900 or 1800 card?
Monk1986,
Are you using a GSM900 or GSM1800 operators card? What is your operator? if it is a GSM900 operator (and card) it will verify my findings.
BTW I dont think its card (itself) related. So I don't think it will make a difference if you try with a old sim card. (Try and post your experience if you can) I think it is the frequency band and how unit and radio roms handle this.
Regards,
alpusm

I don't think so, I have the same problem in all my Uni's that i have had owned along the past 3 years in a random manner, so according the very nice scientific experience by alpusm, I highly suggest the different combinations between the ROM, Radio versions and the frequency band that the SIM uses. If all of us post their experioence here, I think we may reach a final diagnosis to the problem.
if 1800mhz worked, is there some way to force it to use it? I am in the USA and use T-Mobile..
I gave up on my phone and while laying around, the screen broke cuz my wife sat on it..:-( ...
It may be too late for me... I am moving on to the Diamond.
Any further developments????????
I have the same problem too Tried changing radio roms and OS roms - still nothing. But if I use GSM1900 mhz, everything works fine.
Has anybody resolved this problem?
I bought a fuze to replace my 8525. I had no phone reception issues with my 8525 in my work place, it always stayed locked on 3g, even though it might be a bar or two signal strength.
I recently upgraded to the newest official rom from HTC with the new radio in hopes it would solve the call problems I have. Often times my Fuze will switch between Edge and 3g at work. Calls will have horrible sounding audio, dropping out or no audio at all. The newest radio v1.14 didn't help this.
I've recently loaded the standard Energy rom using TF3D 2 and decided to use the v1.12 radio. The jury is out yet on if this helps, but it seems better.
Anyway, my question is that I didn't write down the orginal version of the radio that came with my Fuze so I can avoid trying that again. I'm going to be trying out different radios to see which one works best.
Does anyone have any suggestions and/or can let me know what that original version was?
Thanks.
Find yourself an answer(s) here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Raphael_WM6.1_ROMs
Goodluck.

Thanks, I knew it was something like that.
Anyone having issues with network auto roaming switching on WM 6.5. I have recently installed one of the Kaiser Roms v21232.5.0.1 by "Chinhe"; Everything works great except the auto roaming feature. By that I mean that usually in areas where T-mobile (USA) don't have coverage my phone used to switch to ATT, but not any more. I have all the network settings to Automatic. Personally in my case I have to manually go to phone settings and switch to ATT as a roaming provider. Is there something you guys can suggest I should do.
Anyone else having same problems?
Appreciate your time. Thank you
Try another radio. Maybe that helps. Please check the ultimate radio thread for more info.
Cheers
Hmmm did your network change anything? I know I had chinhe before, and the place where i work there is not signals in buildings, and it was roaming! But i downloaded data and stuff even with that ROM!
My Radio Rom was at 1.71 by Emo and may be that was causing the problem. Chinhe recommends version 1.70.19.09. I have recently updated my phone but I have not got a chance to fully test it.
I will post some additional comments later on. Thanks for your prompt replies.
Radio
I had almost the reverse issue on a WM6.5 ROM. My provider is T-mobile USA and it would rollover to AT&T too often. Then would have trouble "rolling" back to the T-mobile network. (leaving me unable to make or take calls for 5 minutes or so as it connected and disconnected) It was so bothersome that I switched it to manual network connectivity. While the problem was limited to when coverage was weak(one or two bars) it had never happened on previous ROMs. I've been using the EmO 1.71.09.01 for probably a year now on various ROMs and this was the first time I had experience Radio issues. Long story short, I switched to another WM6.5 cooked ROM and the problem was resolved.
