radio upgrade after duttys upgrade? - General Questions and Answers

upgraded mda compact iv rom to duttys 3.5a, fone information doesn't say the radio was upgraded, did duttys 3.5a contain a radio upgrade, should i have upgraded the radio first, will uprading the radio wipe out duttys 3.5a is the radio upgrade v1.00.25.05 really needed and how will it help?

If the radio stayed the same after a ROM flash, then chances are that there wasn't an included radio. You can upgrade the radio at any time and if you have no troubles with the current one, just stick with it.

You would have to read his post to see if the radio was included in the rom (you didn't give enough information for me to be able to tell you, i would also have to read on it. every rom is different and differetn for every phone), you can flash a radio by itself if it was not included. If you don't flash the appropriate radio you can have problems with your phone such as: Camera not to work, to have a black screen, to have no sound or intermittent sound. (extreme examples)

Bluetooth Problem - can make call but not receive

HI all,
I have a ProWave car kit which runs the phone audio through the car radio. I can make a call perfectly but when receiving one I can hear nothing. I can only think that it's some problem with the Bluetooth.
I'm running ROM 1.12.00 WWE, Radio 1.12.10, Protocol Ver 1337.42 and ExtROM 1.12.171 WWE

Why start another thread if there is already one with an All-in-one guide in it? Please search first before posting.
The thread that you referred to started by talking about phones modified with Modified/Bigstorage Roms but I never messed with mine and so, didn't read the post any further since I didn't think it was applicable to me.

Bluetooth has nothing to do with Big Storage ROM since BS is just a way of making use of the Ext ROM which is invisible by default in shipped ROMs.
In any event my problem still hasn't been solved. I downloaded the patch but no joy. Is the radio ver the part that controls the bluetooth in which case should I upgrade the radio to 1.13 and then run the patch on it ?
C
Yes, BT is within the Radio ROM. What patch are you referring to? I've been using Radio 1.13 for quite some time now without any problems. I never had problems also with Radio 1.12. In both cases I never installed any BT patch.
I installed the "Default_BTHUSB_PATCH_AKU26.CAB" file as referred to in other posts. Can I upgrade the Radio ROM to 1.13 without updating the main Rom ? Where would I find the appropriate ROMs ? Can I get a Radio 1.13 ROM on it's own ?
C
If my memory serves me well, that BT patch was for meant for very early ROMS like 1.06. Yes, the Radio ROM can be upgraded without touching the Main ROM. It's been 2 years since I did an upgrade, I think 3rd party programs already installed and data will be lost because the device must be in bootloader mode to install the radio upgrade. I haven't fully checked but most ROMs can be found in wm-gurus.com (registration required), so it is possible that the stand-alone Radio ROM is ready for download.

Any new Radio upgrades? Just started w/probs?

Lately I've been having a hard time dialing out and picking calls up. Long pauses and nothing happens. This is new for me and my tilt. I have the HTC ROM on it.
I've read around before about some of the radio updates but most people were having serious issues upgrading the radio.
There is a way to JUST update the radio without erasing everything right?
I'll go read now, anything anyone can do to help save me some time would be great.
Thanks
The only radio upgrade I've seen for the Tilt so far is included with the latest AT&T rom floating around on the upgrade forum. Kyphur's XDA-Live 1.x rom is built off of the latest AT&T operator rom, so it includes the latest radio stack that "works" with the Tilt.
There is a version of the radio seperate from a rom available on the forum, but as of right now it only works on roms based off of the AKU 0.4.4. The radio can be flashed to devices running other roms, but you will lose all in-call audio.
I'm sure that the master cooks here are working on porting the radio to other roms, but for now, unless you are willing to flash XDA-Live or another rom built on AKU 0.4.4, you're stuck with the radio you have now.
(Of course if my information is wrong, please correct [not flame] me)

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.

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....

Problems with Orange Radio ROM

Hey,
Im having problems with my radio ROM (atleast I think its the radio ROM which is the problem).
I have flashed my ROM to Schap's 4.31
I used HardSPL first btw!
The new ROM seems to work fine, except I can't hear people when they ring me, and they can't hear me. And the signal disappears completely sometimes. Also the camera doesn't work.
I had read a good bit before flashing my ROM, so recognised this as most likely being an issue with the Radio ROM.
After some more reading I tired Kaiser Radio 1.65.21.18 and then after some more reading im now on 1.65.16.25 (which the guy in the orange shop today confirmed as the correct ROM for my phone)
And although the issue with the signal seems to have improved if not gone, I still can't hear people, and they cant hear me. Camera still doesn't work.
Am I being a total prat and have missed something noobishly obvious? This is my first WM Phone, and had really tied to read everything so this wouldn't happen!
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Keith
This really seems a Radio problem. Try to flash some other radio. It's really quick to flash a new radio so try it some times until you find a good one.
Also, go to the Schap's 4.31 threat and see what SPL and Radio the cooker recomends and the "users" of that ROM using.
Don't forget to read the Ultimate Radio Threat here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393182
Your answer you need could be already there and probably you haven't the need to open a new threat.. that I suppose will be closed as soon some mod read it.
Good luck
I'm using the 03-12-08 Hyperdragon Blackstone Build on my Orange UK Tytn II with Radio 1.65.24.36 and cmonex's HardSPL 3.29 and all is perfectly well with mine
Flash a stock rom
If you still get problems try flashing an old stock orange rom from the Wiki and see if that fixes things. The stock roms should have the oem/original radio with them. Hopefully then your'll be able to check if the problem is hardware or software, but it does sound like you need to find a compatible radio.
Schap's 4.31 is WM6 as far as I remember and you are trying to use radio for WM6.1
Try to flash 1.27.12.17
