Radio Rom Upgrade

Ive read through the relevant threads but am still uncertain so thought i best check before i upgrade my radio rom :-
Do i have to unlock the kaiser?
will a radio rom mean a hard reset?
any other things i need to consider
thanks in advance!

BUMP
I'd be interested in this info.
It seems like milling around here theres alot of files and stuff, but very little telling a newbie like me how to actually perform the task.
Somebody posted an upgraded T-Mobile Radio ROM from the one that came on my Vario III, and I'd very much like to upgrade to that, without bricking myself in the process.
So any help to JPHCCFC's questions would be appreciated by me also.
thanks.
EDIT: I've looked in the HardSPL sticky, but it aint very Newbie friendly, thanks

Hi I actually have the same questions as the original poster...
I've installed Dutty's v3 ROM today and want to upgrade my radio from 1.27.12.11 to 1.27.12.17 and am wondering the following:
1) Does upgrading just the radio cause all data to be lost on the phone like when flashing a rom?
2) Do i need to do anything special besides just downloading the radio .rar file and running the CustomRUU in the folder?
Definitely appreciate everyone's help! Thank you!

correction...if you run into any issues use this first

NO!, post in the Kaiser General thread, or in a thread relevant to the question at hand. i.e. if you install a Dutty ROM & have an issue or question, then post in the Dutty ROM thread.

thread closed due to redundancy..

for your sake i sure hope you flashed hardspl onto your tilt before deciding to flash a rom .. If you did make sure you read the information relevant to your phone and the procedure you were atempting than you are not in too much trouble. All you probably need to do is make sure your phone is synced to the pc and give the flash another shot.
If however you were feeling lazy and didn't bother reading any of the instructions and just flashed the rom after downloading it off of the thread than my friend you are royally screwed. I don't know what to tell you to do next if you didn't flash hardspl first as i don't know (nor hope to) the consequences for not doing that. You need to get in touch with the senior members (be nice in your request) like gsleon3 and see if they can help you solve your issue.
good luck

Yes i got it. Thanks guys. Actually i didn't do the hardspl. Now one last question- Which is best ROM by Dutty? and what is the difference between a cube and a non cube version?
Thanks again for supporting me.

I think you may want to read the wiki's and do the HardSPL, it may save you from paying money for a new device. IMO

best rom

best rom is a matter of opinion, try a few see what you like, personally i don't like dutty's roms, i prefer a fully loaded multimedia gaming rom like movile vista 1.3, and as far as your CUBE question search

Here is all the files you will need.
http://www.4shared.com/file/4644747...rdSPL_-_SuperCID.html?dirPwdVerified=4118e38c
includes the CID unlocker.
I highly recommend that you do both the HardSPL and the security unlocker.
copy this file do you device.
http://www.4shared.com/file/45993740/de01ecfe/JumpSPL193-KAIS.html?dirPwdVerified=4118e38c
then run the .exe from your phone. Unplug your USB, then reconnect it.
Then disable USB connections in ActiveSync.
Run the HardSPL w/ AT.
After that is completed follow the instructions to CID unlock your phone

Hidden Away in a magic "lockbox" The only indication you see is next to the "R:" on startup.

Please clear this thing....i can't understand.

Please, oh please....don't do another thing to that phone until you have read GWENI. People here have broken a lot of devices and compiled an unbelievable amount of information so that newcomers won't have to make the same destructive mistakes or ask the same old tired questions. It is oh so very frustrating to contribute this work just so somebody can drop in and deftly avoid all of these attempts at shoving information into them. Everybody is being very nice and calm while doing what we call spoonfeeding you. Show that you respect and appreciate the patience by using the resources that the members here have worked so diligently on providing. Trust me, it is time well spent and will keep you from making one of the many mistakes out there that will render your device the most expensive paperweight you own.
Remember, we have forums, threads, Wikis, and stickies. The purpose of all of these is to share our knowledge. Do not walk through this forest blindfolded or you'll find yourself sitting on your backside picking bark out of your teeth.

There is no such thing of FM or AM radios in this PDA phone...
That radio is a ROM extension that manages the cellular/wifi/bluetooth radio frequency emissions and audio.
Please read the WIKI in full...

Well Well Well... I understand that you are new to this thread as I am and try to get help from people. Just a bit of advice, you might need as least to read the sticky on this thread before giving out any questions
To answer your question, you might need to go to Start->Setting->System->Device Information, then you will see basic information on your device

remember dutty

ah ah ah remember... dutty being the god that he is has gotten an FM radio to work (sorta) and we can download that cab but we need a wired headset to use the FM radio and personally i can't see spending $400 on a phone if you are unwilling to shell out a few more bucks to get a bt headset so i don't have the wired headset to use the FM radio

I mean If you are talking about the Phone Radio You won't "find it."
However others have brought up a good point, if you mean FM radio. You won't find one either. It doesn't work.

That's crazy talk.

you rooted without knowing what Radio and SPL you had?
what kind of phone you got anyway?

Ordinarily I'd consider adding fuel to the flaming you're about to get, but I'm in a good mood today. Here.

I too suggest that this thread be moved to General.
However, if it should be of any use in searches afterwards, there might as well be some answers
Radio refers to the piece of software that runs the radio hardware.
The SPL - to quote a wiki: "Secondary Program Loader, typically, a second stage bootloader."
There's much information around the net
android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Android_FAQ might get you started.
