is there any advantage to updating my radio besides the fact that it works with more roms. I'm running blackhole 1.1 right now
Well so far the new radio locks faster, holds the signal longer, gps is way better, so why not install it yourself and test it, maybe you could come up with some more answers that you could them pass on to the next person.

cool thanks for the great info. will the new radios work with all the older roms
MR2 works on both 2.2 and 2.3 roms. I havnt had any issues with either the leaked or final MR2 radios. Running BAMF 3.0 RC4.

there is no which is the best radio anymore... install the latest OTA radio, it will work on any mr2 based rom.
only reason I asked was because people were having issues with the new leaked 2.5 radio and some people got bricked and I was trtig to avoid this

Mr2.5 doesn't exist. It was a canned Maintenance release by verzion almost a month ago. The Only radio now is the OTA. Baseband version 139.00.0627r.
It Comes from the Official verzion OTA 1.70 RUU that will be pushed to phones soon, some have already gotten it

I kinda feel left out. It seems everyone has updated or at least tried to update to the Gingerbread release on LGs site.
But after reading how many people had complications or even bricked their phone, I decided not to try and update, hoping that an official "over the air" update will come from tmobile.
Am I the only one that decided it's to risky to try the update and is still on Froyo? Who else has concerns like mines?
I have not either. So far it seems more trouble than it's worth... Waiting on a good, stable release of GB from the devs!

Haven't updated either...I'm running xboarder's GB 2.3.4 and it's pretty stable...still get sod and have overheating issues but they don't happen often.
I want to try out the new update and baseband but don't want to brick my phone as so many have done, so ill just wait a littlebit longer...

Me neither. I wait for a flashable version with new LG drivers and baseband.

I haven't updated either, mine is the LGP999DWP phone and it keeps saying that my software is up to date. when I read the forums and see how many people are having issues updating to it, i am somewhat glad i can't update right now...wiating for the OTA from T-Mobile I hope they deploy it soon.
i'm also waiting for CM7 to get the latest drivers. but cm7 is already running 2.3.4 so i don't see any reason to downgrade to 2.3.3. from what i have been reading, my cm7 is equal to being as stable as the "OTA". it works great for me.
What GB update?
Lol. Its a downgrade from CM7. While it is nice sometimes to "just work" but my G2x is pretty good on CM7. Occassionally does a nightly give me fits.

I have not. I tried but the LG updater freezes in Vista.
No update here. I am staying with froyo Dark &Sinister with Faux's kernel. I will only change after the Faux and the other developers incorporate this release inbto their work.
Why didn't LG update to 2.3.4 and skip 2.3.3?

Consensus seems to be that this is still just a development build. Also, given the amount of time it takes to test a ROM on a phone and the frequency that Google updates their OS, I wouldn't be entirely surprised if the final shipped version is still 2.3.3.
What is the latest Leaked radio version for the TB. I see MR2.5, MR2.75 and MR3 but I cant get any version info or download links. Can someone point me in the right direction, and which has been good for most people?
Goto section VI of the Rom and kernel listing that is a stckie in the development section of this site. Click the link for Adryn's obligatory radio thread listed there.
I ran the MR2 radio with no issues whatsoever, and recently updated to the leaked alpha GB radio (.704). IMO, radio selection is trial and error - for example I had bad performance from the MR2.5 radio where others didn't.
Be sure to use a radio recommended on the OP of the ROM you stein running. All will list the radio there as well.

because of the intermediate leaked versions which were thought to be the official MR2, and such, but ultimately were not.. I'm confused when people are calling the different radios by MR2, MR2.5, mr2.75, etc...
I really wish people would just call out the Radio code version, rather than anything else.
Some threads which may or may not be helpful, since their OP's haven't been updated since MAY -> [RADIO] The Obligatory Thunderbolt Radio Thread and -> [RUU] All known Mecha RUUs & OTAs (signed only) 5/16/2011
From "official ROM" stand point, I know the following...
ROM 1.12.605.6 with Radio_1.16.00.0223r Was the shipping version.
ROM 1.13.605.7 with Radio_1.16.00.0402w was the MR1 pushed by Verizon OTA
ROM 1.70.605.0 with Radio 1.39.00.0627r, 0.01.69.0625r was the MR2 pushed by VZW OTA on July 8. ("ROM" and Radio link -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160374 )
Chingy51o has acquired a newer GB ROM leak which also included radio "1.46.00.0704w_2, 0.01.76.0703_2r". The entire ROM/Radio hasn't been shared yet... BUT This radio has been stripped out and posted over on themikmik.com. It is the newest leaked radio I've seen to date. (you'll have to visit themikmik.com to get it... its in the Thunderbolt -> Development -> General -> Official section)... And the ROM part serves as the base for Gingeritis v1.2.

That's exactly the combo I was trying to run and it would only boot a quarter of the time. Is there something I should be doing first? Reflashing the ROM when I flash the radio? Wouldn't think I should have to.
I've ran the leaked radio a few times, and each time my wifi acts weird. I would have wifi connected, then randomly it would disconnect and say my home wifi is out of range, even though I'm sitting at home with my computer connected to my wifi.
No problems on the OTA radio, so that's what I'm sticking with. Just sharing my experience.
No, just sounds like you had a corrupted file. Try and dl everything again and try it again. On the 3d beta 2 version I was using the mr2 radio first for a week or so then flashed the new radio. So when I went to the new 3d build, beta 6, I already had the new radio

I had the same issue on first boot with gingeritis 3d VI. Actually bootlooped on me. Pulled the battery and it booted just fine after that. Was on the original Mr2 radio at the time. Since updated to his new leak. Been the best Rom I've run on my bolt so far.

If you read the directions he tells you this is likely to happen and tells you to hold the volume buttons and press power to reboot and then everything works.fine, and it never does it again. It happens to me with every version upgrade, don't know why, but after the reboot it never happens again and everything works fine. ****s rock solid for me, hella fast, super batt life.

Been running the .704 leaked radio with ging3r3dth3ory and its been great.
Ive tried all these leaked radio's and they are garbage in Connecticut. OTA MR2 has my SpeedTeasts at 10-15 MBs down and 5 MBs up. The leaked crap only gives me 0.3 MBs up or down. Especially that last one i tried 1.46.00.0704w_2.
I have been using 2.3.5 with the new radio, I have more bars and sometimes I get better speeds but I lose more frequently my 3g and keeps bouncing 3g/1x, my wifi sucks but I don't use it a lot and 4g, I don't have here in my area.
Have the same problem since I moved to 2.3.5 and so have moved back to a rom that uses 2.3.4 (Oxygen 2.1.6).
Is the wifi/3g trouble due to the radio? If yes, anyone knows how I can use a newer rom with an older radio?
Thanks

Flash the rom first then apply the radio.
I have been using the old radio for a day and now I don't have a problem with the wifi and the 3g works the same, like crap, so I am going to keep the old radio with this one 2.3.5 rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1205936 , for couples days and see. 3g in Sprint sucks!
Well my inspire came 2.3.3 out the box and seems to run pretty good to me. The radio seems to be a lot better than when i tried a inspire during launch week. What will i really be gaining by flashing a custom rom? Which one will work the best with stock 2.3.3 radio?

The roms will work with all radios, just make sure to note the radio version you have and to have the ril flashed with it on a sense rom. The radio differs by location and not rom.
Like i said its completely stock on the 10.04.03m radio
For me, the one benefit I've noticed is battery life. Running stock gingerbread, I could maybe get 10-11hrs out of a charge. Running AR 6.1.2 with the recommended radio and similar use a (subjective, I know), I'm seeing over 20hrs on a charge.
I started this to see if anyone can list a few ROMs that work with T-Mobiles htc one s. Please help by listing the ROM you are on and by saying if the ROM has any issues; such as WiFi not working for example.

I've been using $droyd$'s AOKP 4.2.2 ROM and the only issue is that as of right now, you can't record in 1080p. Other than that, its very smooth and fast.
Also if you were unaware before, wifi-calling doesn't work on any jelly bean rom.

WIFI issues are a nuance of this phone and the tmobile seems to be the most affected - it's different for each access point, user, phone, rom and firmware. In short you'll have to try it.
My tmobile worked with wifi on CM10 and CM10.1, it would not work with Viper until I downgraded my hboot (partial s-off enables some firmware write access) and flashed my wifi firmware. It get's interesting - I then put the old firmware back and the wifi still worked!!
Did you see the S-OFF thread? This will enable you to flash the radio firmware which will solve any problems.
Remember your WIFI channels - different countries use different range of channels and some access points 'helpfull' set the channel automaticlly. I have many devices that cannot cope with channel12.
Not trying to be a buzz kill here, but what's the purpose of this thread? I mean the Dev section is right over there, and the first page is flowing with fully working or close to fully working new ROMS.
Just saying.
I see what your saying. But honestly when you go through the a certain ROMs thread, they never say how WiFi doesn't work on T-Mobile phones. Or any of the problems Tmobiles users face.And who wants to go through a thread having to look for that one specific detail about a ROM whether or not to see if WiFi works. Also when looking through these ROM threads you find people that just like to say thank you (which there is nothing wrong with) that fill up the pages, making it harder to know if everything in that ROM is really going to work on your tmobile HTC one s, because people do search through comments to see what the users say. Therefore I made this thread for all T-Mobile users who want to post and say whether their ROM they are using works perfectly or if they are experiencing problems. And who wants to go through the process of flashing a new ROM without even knowing whether something like WiFi works. So yeah that's why i made this thread

I get that, ROM posts can be a little all over the place sometimes. I didn't understand at first; I'm one of the few T-Mo users with pretty much no problems. It also doesn't help that the ROM database that some guy did in the Dev section hasn't been updated for some time.
Thankyou

Ok thank you. Now i think im going to go Flash that rom. And also did you do anything specific to get your wifi working. and what Hboot are you on
If you are S-ON and have high HBOOT and want a Sense-based ROM with working WiFi, you were looking at TrickDroid 7 (TMOUS based), Unknown Retribution, and I think one more (Energy Blue, IIRC) that were based on recent updates. Since they were all based on the TMOUS ROM, everything should work without doing anything super special, including WiFi-calling. Virtuous Ville+ also had working WiFi, but no WiFi-calling. Recent CM 10.1 nightlies are working really well. At least, those are the ROMs I've used.

Right now I'm on Viper 2.1.0 with the full firmware from the 3.16 WWE OTA -- I only made that jump because S-OFF makes it easy to switch without having to downgrade HBOOT. So HBOOT is 2.15 and Radio is 1.11.50.05.28. But I've just started using that and can't give you much in the way of impressions on WiFi stability yet. Just flashed it last night and didn't have any WiFi problems downloading my apps last night or weather checks this morning.
Before that I was using a recent CM 10.1 nightly on the TMOUS 2.35.531.10 firmware. So HBOOT 1.14 and 1.11t. I ran that firmware combination from shortly after its release until flashing Viper. ROMs in use were either CM 10.1 nightlies or Unknown Retribution (TMOUS 2.35 based).

noob question- What do you mean by TMOUS 2.35 based. And how does that affect the cm10.1 nightly
I mean ROMs that were built using T-Mobile US's 2.35 ROM as a base. Other Sense-based ROMs, like Viper, start with different ROMs as a base. The different Sense bases are part of the reason people run into WiFi problems when using ROMs originally created for other regions.
CM 10.1 has an entirely different heritage so it has its own ways of dealing with those issues.

Gotta Tell you the Viper 2.1.0 rocks...its fast awesome battery life and its got working wifi...not wifi calling but just wifi in general...it honestly is the best sense ROM...I have tried CM 10, Virtuous Ville+, P.A.C Man and even the ICS ROMs and I gotta say the Venom team makes an awesome product...:laugh:
"[rom][S4][15FEB]Updated_4.2.2_AOKP-Working-video" seems to work great with TMOUS hboot 1.14, added the new camera (in the post) with photosphere, The only little bug I found is the bluetooth doesn't list station info on my car stereo. I saw a tearing fix using bubba kernel, but I'm just living with it for now. Everything else seems to work great!
I just flashed the LiquidSmooth JB ROM from Droyd and this thing is amazing.. Coming from a rooted Stock Sense there really is no comparison, I might give Viper a try but this is clearly gonna be my daily driver
