upgrading
i'm upgrading, thanks for the upload, i'll give my quick feedback later today
I'll have a try on it... Thanks for sharing the news
Curious
I really wanna know what's new in 1.11
1.09 was allready a big improvement for me.
I have been using radio 1.11 for about 24 hrs now and comapred to 1.09:
1. Signal strength is less in same areas
2. Calls are answered immediately (so did 1.09)
3. Call clarity is a tad better (less noise, drop out and echoes)
I will be flashing back to 1.09 because point 1 above is more important than point 3. The difference is not much anyway.
Oh! I forgot. In both radios I am unable to get the Time Zones page via the registry hack:
HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting Change the value of the Key "ShowTimeZonesPage" to value of 1 (dword).
I wish I could get this working as I travel a lot
no
no more bt voice command calls from bt headset, even if i re-install bt hack.
nothing more at the moment
Just upgraded to Radio 1.11.
all I can say right now is that I can't dial from my BT headset (HBH-662).
when I press the button on the headset, it establishes connection, all sounds from JJ are now coming out from the headset until I press the headset button again, sound goes back to JJ.
Note that NO BT voice command hacks were installed before or after, I dialled using Cyberon VC and it used to work perfectly.
Back to 1.09 i guess!
Cheers
JP
How about trying to associate the voice command files again? Maybe it just needs refreshing after the upgrade.
Did you check the registry for
HKLM>SOFTWARE>OEM>VoiceCommand>LaunchAPEnable
as "1"????
Hope this help.
Cheers,
I installed. What surprised me most is the AS doesn't work fine any more. My pc is Win2003 with no firewall at all. And Qtek1.09 works fine before. I decided to back 1.09.

Same observation here , V 1.06 is the best from BT headset & battery life point of view.
hymmm, I find 1.11 heaps better.. using latest o2 rom...Wakes up alot faster when ringing, works fine with bluetooth supertooth II, and battery life is great... If anything it has made the unit feel faster...

Is it better in terms of voice quality , signal and BT than 1.6 or 1.9 ?.
I am asking this because I am using a BT JX-10 and 1.06 and sometimes the voice is "droping" during a conversation.
Also I get some noise.
The radio stack "seems" to connect quicker to the bluetooth headset. Otherwise signal is the same and their is no issue with the bluetooth headset. I have microsoft voice command that transfers over the headset and its working just fine. It would be nice if this radio could cook me dinner and also make my jas jar boot in 3 seconds but it won't. It makes me laugh when people say signal strengh is better or lower. LMAO Sorry to break the news but the radio stack does not make the difference in signal, its the cel towers. If you want better signal go to another gsm provider or modify a bigger antenna.
Mike
Actually Mike, I dont agree; I think it is handset dependent also to some extent. I was recently out on vacation and my friend had a generic Nokia and mine was the O2 Exec. Same service provider for both. He had a full signal whereas my exec had either zero or one bar signal.
Cheers!

how d'ya do dat?
My JJ is giving me grief, this despite the fact that I've upgraded the rom twice now. My problem is that I get missed calls and often have to redial outgoing numbers.
I want to try the new radio version. I have 1.09, but would like to try 1.11.
How do I go about doing this?
cheers,

I am using LVSW ROMs since 26/03 version, through 08/04 until present 19/05. I also have 1.41 version of Radio ROM. Since I've started using these ROMs, I'm noticing problems with radio stack.
For example, while I was driving a car across Europe (UK->PL) few weeks ago, GSM module hanged almost every time I was crossing a border between countries and phone was loosing signal from one country and had to register in another. All I could see was little [!] sign instead of signal bars, and restarting phone module and/or whole device could help it. Two days ago I was on M1 from Sheffield to London and I've noticed that GSM module just died - pressing green button did just nothing (despite I had full signal bars), and people trying to call me that time, were saying they had regular calling signal, like I was missing a call. Besides that whole device was working properly, with no problems whatsoever.
On the other hand, I have no problems with dropped calls or data sessions. Looks like it is happening mainly on the move, and phone has problems with registering with network properly.
So there is a question(s) - does anyone have similar problems with LVSW ROMs or 1.41 Radio ROM? Should I downgrade Radio ROM to 1.40 or 1.38? I have HardSPLv7 installed, so is it safe to just use this RUU - ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Hermes/HERM_Radio_Only_1.40.30.00_CustomRUU.rar ? I've been searching forums, but haven't found much information on *downgrading* Radio ROM in particular.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Its the radio rom causing you problems. I've also had problems with data connections in particular using ROM 1.40 and 1.41 (in Asia, on UMTS and EDGE networks).
Suggest you re-flash the pretty-much proven 1.38 ROM. You can find the download link from the Wiki.
radio downgrade
I used the 1.40 on black 2.5 and it was ok , then I upgraded to 1.41 radio and I had problems with the sound quality so I downgraded to 1.40 and the sound become back good
I have HardSPLv7 installed and I am on orange IL Israel
I used for downgrade CustomRUU and had no problems on the downgrade prosses
now i am using the last version of LVWS with radio 1.40 and it is working ok
hope this info help you
another remark :
try to install first the radion and on top of it os and not first os and then radio , i notice in a change of battery life in those 2 variants
Were you driving too fast for the phone to keep up with the radio transmitters passing by????
I'm also using LVSW 19-05 and Radio 1.41 but not having any significant issues unless a program runs at 100%, then the person trying to call me hangs up before the phone starts ringing!
Ciao Oggy.
It's not the LVSW ROM.....! It's the radio 1.41 And this radio was tuned for Cingular. I am on Cingular and i personally think that 1.40 is much much better. Read up on the two radio topics for more info on the two. So the bottom line is it's NOT LVSW at fault here. it's the 1.41 radio...

Yeah, that's what I thought, but wasn't 100% sure either. I'm going to downgrade to 1.40 tonight and will observe any results...
Thanks to all for your inputs.
to be fair I think there is a problem with t-mobile uk at the moment with handovers, let me explain.......
I have a active data connection.........
phone is on 3G, everything fine
phone switches to 2G, data connection is still active, no problems
phone switches to 3G, data connection is broken and the radio reboots (scrolling dots ect.)
I can (and have) replicated this with EVERY radio from 1.27 to 1.41 (and I do mean EVERY radio)
I've also tried EVERY WM6 rom out there all do the same.
so I can only think its T-mobile playing up, its just strange that everything worked fine with WM5 as I remember (and no Im not flashing back to find out!)
Hi, I'm in the Netherlands. Just tested the 1.40 because 1.41 disconnected all the time. So far so good (5 calls later..). Downgrade went fine with the customRUU. Regards Bas

Interesting - it might be worth to check, but here in London it's actually hard to find a place where phone would switch itself 3G->2G. But anyway, I had problems not only on T-Mobile UK network, as I stated in first post, so I rather think it's Radio ROM related problem, more than network.
Sorry...I've been to positive. Right now only incoming calls come through. Outgoing is still a disaster. I'll downgrade to 1.38. Ill let you know if this works..
Currently in Thailand on DTAC, an EDGE network (all their GSM networks here have EDGE).
Radio 1.40: Voice calls were okay, didn't seem to have any problems, until I tried using data (gprs/edge). The data connection was completely unstable and unusable. Downgraded to radio 1.38...
Radio 1.38: Everything okay so far, EDGE data and voice calls.
Same boat!
Yup, same thing here with T-Mobile and the 3G/2G thingy.
Though I must admit 1.40 is pretty sucky anyway, 1.41 was worse.
Considering going back to 1.38, I've forgotten what it came with 1.2x or something, which, for its sins was pretty OK.
Oi! T-Mobile!! Sort it out before I head back to Orange!!!!
Actually, forget that rant, no point taking two steps backwards and starting to pay per MB again!!! LMAO

One more thing, which just came to my mind - in the original T-Mobile's MDA Vario II Extended ROM there is a file called P_rilgsm_patch.CAB, which could be related to Radio. Maybe this is a key for these problems? I guess this patch is network-specific - well, I believe this patch is there for a reason...
Btw, I've just downgraded to 1.40...
Error message flashing Radio 1.40.30
Hope someone can help me with this. I'm encountering an error message when trying to flash to radio 1.40.30. I have Custel 2.5 installed on a JasJam with Radio 1.41 currently.
When I run the update RUU program and click the AutoDetect button, I get a message that says "Error, Unknown version! You should pick SSPL".
I have HardSPL7 installed, so my question is, is it safe to force SSPL? Is that what it is asking me to do?
Thanks.
Nevermind, I think I found the answer finally - it only took many days:
1. Select "2.10 new..."
2. Tick "Is it HARD Spl?"
And then run the update as per normal.
where is the link to downgrade the radio 1.38

OK, but how to actually copy/send rilgsm.dll file?? Each time I have 'File cannot be copied' message, or such like... :-o
Btw, what happened, when you applied rilgsm patch?
i now get a "E" icon instead of "3G" and the radio seems slower handing over from 3G to 2G and back (thank god my stairs are 2G only!) I've sent you a PM on how to copy that file.
The goal of this thread is to find out which radio is best for your region and provider.
We will have to look at the following
-Reception strenght for both gsm and 3g.
-Speed of GPS lock
-Batterylife
I have added a poll, the poll will be continent based, but you can post your exact country and provider in your commentry post.
if we can get enough information or see a red line that makes things easyer we could add a wiki page with recomended radios for each country or provider
yeayyy second...
from qatar .. no probs with radio 150xxxx
signals ..atleat get a bar where 1.46 didnt get any
gps.. maybe bit faster lock..
improved.. now dont need to charger 2 days ( depends on usage)
In New Zealand (on Vodafone NZ), and strangely with the Dopod ANZ WM6 ROM and 1.46.30.11 radio incoming calls don't work, I can dial out just fine and all other radio functions (BT, WIFI, GPS) work perfectly. Just nobody can call me - they get a disconnected signal which is very strange! Tried fixing the phone to only GSM or only 3G, neither of which helped.
I would have thought that since the Dopod ANZ ROM was released for the ANZ region the 1.46.30.11 radio that came with it would work nere.
Went back to the 1.38 radio ROM which fixed the problem. Haven't yet tried 1.41 or 1.50 to see if they fix the problem.
In North America using 1.46.00. It works as well as 1.38 did, however GPS fix is twice as fast now.
Rogers Canada
-------------------
1.50.08.111
1.46.xxxx
Sometimes calls are dropped after 1 ring and sent straight to voicemail. Sometimes phone doesn't even ring and goes straight to voicemail. GPS reception is great. Haven't noticed any difference in call quality with either of these radios.
1.38.00.11
Seems to be most stable for me. Doesn't not have the same issues as the newer radios, however GPS reception isn't as good.
T-Mobile USA.These ones work fine.
1.35.00.11
1.38.00.11
1.41.00.11
1.46.00.11
1.46.30.11
This version:1.50.08.11
Sends my calls straight to voicemail and sometimes the phone only rings once.
Up till now it would seem that 1.50.08.111 is the best version to choose by default, and only if you have problem then you should downgrade to 1.46.xxxx
ACCORDING TO MY OPINION:
each official os require different drivers and/or dll to access to radio rom and one of the most important is rilgsm.dll and related exes.
More or less, we actually have 3 kinds of cooked rom, derived from official anz, sea and new anz with different radio roms. Each one should use the radio rom shipped with its own os, but as to seem that all the people here go always to the latest revision number without thinking to the drivers they are using.
The latest radio 1.50 has been shipped by a local provider probably with special setting, but the people seem to go to this version just becouse it's the latest revision. Why don't you trust what your rom cookers are suggesting about radio roms?
For example, it seem that the most part of the people are using axel roms on its devices, and axel includes Radio v1.46.00.11 to its own rom. But according to this poll, most part of the people are using 1.50 radio.
Please think about this...
Ciao

Yeah, I have the same problem with my P3600. I have upgraded to radio rom 1.46 and people can not call me anymore. I am downgrading to 1.38 now. I have put wm5 back but the radio rom didn't change. it is still 1.46.
and?
And South America? it doesnt exist?
There can only be 10 options, so south america and everything else not mentioned goes under the other option
Tried 1.38.00.11 .. that comes with mun rom...
it was working perfectly ...
then unfortunately i upgraded to 1.46.30.11 ...
which sucks big time ... voice is bad ... reception is bad .. and gps is the same ...
didn't try other roms ...
on my way to reinstall 1.38
I for one never noticed any difference they all perform the same way, its only a version number that changes in my device
What about Portugal?
Im still using the olg 1.46 one...

Yeah simply becuase I am tired of moving between different versions just trying to improve the GPS first fix as people claim the fix is faster with every new radio rom, and I got sick of it and that was the last version I used....
I would have had the same question coming to me with any number I had put in my signature....ha
thanks for that answer
Can we pin this and other Polls?
I am using "Test.build.gps.32.75.7020" Its was made for specific network provider. With standard radio rom my phone was missing calls and sms messages.
Hello guys!
I flashed 1.5xxx radio to my Trini, and my IMEI has changed!!!Do you have any idea, how to change it back? My IMEI is checked every time, I leave the factory, I can not leave it like this
Hello,
i am facing some problems with my Hermes and I really don't know what is going on, the problems is that, although it shows that is connected to the telephone network, if somebody calls me it doesn't ring and is not responding. At that time that is not responding if i try to call the phone screen shows that is dialing but it is not, if i click the "End call" it doesn't end until it times out, after that it is not responding again and it needs a reset. After the reset it's working again until the next time that will crash.
I am using Schap's 4.31 rom with 1.54.30.10 radio
What do you suggest that i should do?
I got the same problem with older Schap's ROMs. When I flashed to K's or anything else (not based on Schap's) the problem disappeared.
I had the same exact issue, my solution to this issue was to replace the radio with 1.47.30.10. It has been 5 days without any issue. I hope that helps.
you just changed the radio? or the windows rom also?
I've had this issue on my Hermes, although it was evident on WM5, which is one of the reasons I upgraded to WM6, which alas just created other problems

nah i don't think i will downgrade to WM5, maybe i will try another rom.
also the battery doesn't last long, maybe 3 hours, i don't know why is that, and maybe that is what is causing the problem.
I just downloaded the radio from this link http://www.parkingdenied.com/filebrowser/Hermes/Radio+Roms
If I was you, I will try Radio down-grade first.
Good luck
When the phone freezes on the "dialing..." screen it is cuz the phone lost its network connection (although it wont show it). U can remedy this by turning the "phone" part (not the whole device) off then on again, so it will reconnect to the network.
Also, some radios are very power draining. Try check here for feedback on different radios.
Basically, there is a good chance all this messin u up is ur radio
hey i was looking at the other forums and they all contain some kind of radio rom thread with many radio roms and its sticky'd so i decided i should make one also so everyone can find radio roms easily and flash them and see which they get the best performance out of!
some radios extracted with thanks to: da_mayhem
T-Mobile WM6 Radio - 4.1.13.34_02.79.90
HTC WM6 WWE ROM - 4.1.13.44_02.94.90
Rogers WM6 Radio - 4,1,13,47_02.98.90
New 4.1.13.51_03.07.90 radio
and finally some VOX radio's I converted over to the Excalibur/Dash
Vox Radio 4.1.13.47_02.98.90
Vox Radio 4.1.13.37_02.83.90
Vox Radio 4.1.13.47_02.94.90
Vox Radio 4.1.13.60_03.18.90
Make sure you have the USPL loaded into your device (Thanks to jockyw2001)
**How to Flash**
1. download the USPL file
2. Run USPL.bat and follow the instructions
3. once your screen turns blank and the USPL.bat application finishes open up the radio rom file you would like to flash and run the RomUpdateUtility.exe file
4. Report your results so others can see!!
***Flash at your own risk and ask questions or read if your uncertain as to what to do***
well ill be the first one to post my results. out of all the radios i believe the 02.98.90 radio gives me the best service in my area
battery life not bad either
im in Woodland Hills CA and using tmobile service
i can say out of the 3 official ones ive used only the rogers one had a decent reception in my area....
I am intrigued with the vox ones... ill have to load one of them up this week and test it.
I was wondering... is any of these radios known to drop calls?
I'll explain myself. I usually call someone and some people will hang up and call back. The fact is that these kind of calls won't usually come through, as they receive the message from the network operator that the terminal is powered off or out of coverage (rough translation).
If they call back once again, this time the call comes in.
Any ideas on what's causing this behaviour?
A similar problem happens when I'm on the data connection chatting with palringo or browsing the web. If someone calls me in these moments the call won't come through.
Bump!
Any ideas on this issue?
Which Radio ROM would you suggest I downgrade to given that now I have 4.1.13.51_03.07.90?
Just wondering, what these radio roms did, and do they affect you having wm6.1/6/5?
Were can I go to see what radio version I have installed on my dash?

yeah im wondering that to since i get alot of dropped calls now
Well, I think I've narrowed the problem to a provider issue.
I'm on a unlimited data plan and have palringo and exchange server setup so I'm always online.
So, I get the above mentioned behaviour, but it just doesn't happen with the dash. My Nokia E65 does the very same thing, call won't come through sometimes if I'm idling on palringo or pulling mails, so it has to be either that Vodafone has old gsm equipment in my area or that it's misconfigured.
Over 3G the problem goes away, it happens on gsm but not just to the dash so I think I'm done blaming the htc.
i changed it to the new radio and i get perfect reception everywhere now and my last phone call sounded extra clear
BUMP FOR THIS THREAD. it deserves a sticky. I gotta test every radio out of this and see which one works flawlessly with WM6.5
EDIT: The HTC radio has been removed. I wanna use with my non T-Mo network
I have ookba's newest ROM to date on my phone, with the newest radio on there. Only problem is... it DRAINS my battery like no other. If its on standby, it goes down really fast, and I'm at 80% within an hour of zero use. Which radio version here would be good and work well with WM6.5? Which one has good service?

You should be careful with this particular rom, ookba stated not so long ago that testing other radios has been not stable with his 6.5 rom.
