Well, I would like to know if there are differences in the different radios of firmware versions.
See, my device originally came with O2 firmware. Now It's S-Off and I don't have any O2 software on it.
Now would it result in better calling quality, sound etc. when flashing the o2 radio over some custom variant ?

Hi all,
i am thinking about upgrading to one of the WM6 Roms from this forum.
There are some doubts I am thinking about:
Do i have to flash the Bootloader to HardSPLv7 when i only plan to flash the OS?
The background is that i am running on Radio 1.32.00.00 after flashing with the official new ROM 2.04.162.1 from Vodafone.de and dont want to change anything despite the OS, because this Radio works fine for me!
And for varanty purposes i dont want to change anythin other then the OS.
As i figured out from the upgrade guides, the new Bootloader is only needed when also upgrading the Radio. Am i wrong?
I think the WM6 Roms also work fine eith other Radios and Bootloaders, isn't it?
Also i want to know if Vodafone Live! is (incl. Video Streaming) is working fine with the WM6 Roms?
Thanks for your help,

Yes you need to flash the bootloader to flash the OS. Your radio won't change.
Thanks
Ok thank you for that information.
Does anyone know if Vodafone Live! and MobileTV is working with WM6 Roms?
AnyOne tried yet on the Vodafone Network (or even Vodafone.de network)?
Thanks in advance,

You can flash only OS, but you would be foolish to NOT flash HardSPL 7.
I didn't think any of the vodafone live stuff worked on these things due to the browser and the coding of the site. Mind I've only tried it on vodafone uk. whenever I try and browse I just get a blank screen, buy I have an htc tytn noy a VF branded one.
Video calling works fine by the way if that's any help.
I am an Orange UK SPV M3100 (HERM100) user. My radio stack was originally whatever was in the AKU3 update for WM5.
After doing the HardSPL V7 flashing, I upgraded my radio stack to the 1.50.00 version which said GSM only.
Then I upgraded to 1.51.00 which sucked so I downgraded back to 1.50.00
Now I assume that GSM only means GSM/GPRS/Edge/UMTS/HSDPA and excludes WIFI/Bluetooth.
So my question is has there been any radio upgrades to the non-gsm parts of the radio stack since the WM5 AKU3 update that Orange UK released in April?
Hi Starfury.
All the Radios only affect the calls/GPRS/3G etc. part of the phone. I'm not sure why 1.50 has GSM in the title as it's fundamentally the same as all the other Radio's, albeit a different version. Bluetooth and WiFi are always controlled from the actual ROM - in your case Scahps' excellent one (from your sig). I'm not sure how frequently the bits of the ROM controlling Bluetooth and WiFi are updated, but I'm sure the Chefs here have the very latest ones built in!
Happy flashing....
"GSM Only" refers to the fact that it's only a radio update.
I have a Diamond running the Asian ROM (1.34.831.1 WWE) and noticed the European ROM Image (1.35.401.3) was available. What is the difference between these two images, and is the European image "newer" than the Asian or just a different version since it's a different locale?

its not really newer, just some minor HTC changes, nothing to write home about.
Thanks for the response. I was hoping some of the tweaks, like the screen turning off during a phone call (tried every mod in the forums...none worked) might work if I was running the European version instead of Asian. As I understand it though...I can't flash to this image since HardSPL does not work on my ROM image just yet.
I've upgraded my MDA Compact IV (Touch Diamond) with the Shine on 2.4 Full ROM.
My question is, after doing the Hard SPL and running the radio etc for this ROM upgrade and then upgrading the ROM, do I need to do a Hard SPL and radio upgrade if I wanted to use a different ROM? Or will one single HSPL and radio installation suffice for multiple ROM upgrades?
Just the once will do for both, although some radios are better than others depending on your area, network, GPS program etc. and many people experiment with different radios before settling on the best for them
I am trying to relock my Diamond and it is failing. I am going to assume that it is because I am using the Telus radio Rom. Does any one have or can anyone provide me with a current radio rom for my version of the phone so that I can lock it. I am interested in Bell HTC Touch Diamond radio rom.
I have looked everywhere for the stock software that would include the radio for my phone and I can't find anything. Currently I am using the Stock Rom Version 1.13.666.7 but it does not include the radio.
Help!
