What's with the radio?

Hi. Sorry if it is a newbie question, but I did search a bit and didn't seem to find an answer. What is the benefit of upgrading -if possible- the radio? Anybody done it and can report on the effects? Thank You.

I can personally attest to better reception with the newer radio,for one.

Depends on what ROM you are using. Certain ROM's are dependent on certain radios.

In the past, different radio roms have affected signal strength, battery life, and device stability.
Very recently we've seen an AT&T rom that's tied to a specific radio version. This is new, and right now nobody is sure why that's the case.

Thanks. Apparently can't be done from a non-windows OS. I use OS X.

Raphael sms problem

any idea how to fix that please.thanks

wow 45 viewers and no answer for my question thanks anyway

i surmise it is because the person that does know what the problem is has not seen it and the people that have read this do not know what to do with your problem (like me).
sorry, not everyone are able to participate because some of us really do not know the answer. So your best bet is to persevere and keep wondering and you should be able to get someone to assist you.
Good luck

fm radio problem please help

i have a sprint tp2 with energy leo rom and im in australia.i cant get the radio to work, it cannot find any stations. there are lots around me and ive stood everywhere holding the headphones in the air but not a singel sign of a signal. if anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this please let me know

Thats because it has never worked for the cdma touch pro 2. I think it's missing something. It has the program but the hard ware is disabled or something.

Don't start another thread about this!!!
Please search XDA and PPCGeeks. This is a MUCH talked about problem with the TP2 (CDMA) and FM radio -- DON'T START ANOTHER THREAD ABOUT THIS!

I have manners. You don't know how to search!
Like I said, there are a TON of threads about this problem already.
People are working VERY HARD on trying to find a way to fix this (me being one of them) -- don't irritate them by asking the same question that someone already asked AGES AGO IN NUMEROUS THREADS.
defaultdotxbe's response is priceless: "Let me Google that for you" - I love it.
FWIW... I put "touch pro2" cdma "FM radio" into Google and it came up with TEN PAGES OF RESULTS.
BTW... I'm not an angry person. "There are no stupid questions - only stupid people".

[Q] Voicemail problems

Hey everyone, i am looking for some help with setting up my voicemail.
I have the inspire 4g with att, its rooted and running cm7 as of right now. on this rom and the stock with root i cannot set up my voicemail to use google voice. i cant even set it up in general, actually. when i go into settings and tell it to use google voice, it tries to load for a second, then says something about forwarding settings or something then kicks me out. (does this on stock rom and CM7)
does anyone have a solution? id like for my phone to not just ring and ring and ring and ring... you get it
thanks in advance for the help!

Should not be a new thread. Should be posted in the CM7 thread.

well I would put it in the cm thread, but it doesn't work on any rom I use.

So what? That's not how it works here. New threads in the development section are strictly for subjects directly related to developing for the device.
In other words, are you a developer, or a consumer of the products of a developer?
Questions go in a rom-related, preferably, and otherwise in the general section.
After, of course, you've searched exhaustively for an answer first, with no luck.

MIUI 2.1.6 - Call problem

Hi,
I have a big problem with MIUI rom. If someone try to call me, phone does nothing, no incoming call.
Trying to search on every forum which i know, but without result.

1. This is dev section
2. Do not create special threads because something does not work
3. Did you even read what is working or not working in this ROM? I'll tell you. No calls possible.

I know this is a problem for you, but you are not justified in posting this thread here in the Development forum.
Ask your question in the Q&A section, and if someone wants to answer it, they will.
You can't force your questions in places they don't belong. Plus when you do this, it shows a blatant disrespect for the forum and it's community, which further reduces the chances of anyone actually coming forward and bothering to answer your question.
Learn to respect the forum, you only reap what you sow...
