[ROM] DIAM140 Indian 2G Radio Stacks - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

I spent a while searching out which Radio stacks would work on my DIAM140 Indian 2G Diamond. This is not covered in the Roll Up topic.
I have tried and tested from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407956
Tested by LeonDAPhillips
Radio v1.00.25.05
Radio v1.00.25.03
UPDATE:
Tested by ninthsense:
Radio v1.00.25.07
Can anyone else post which Radio roms they have had successes (and failures) with please?

I'm running Dutty's Diam V1.6 WWE rom with 1.00.25.07 radio on my 2G diamond for the past one week without any issues.
This radio is certainly making my battery go longer than anything else i've tried till now. I've tried the .03 and .05 also but i believ .07 is the best till now.
So if you've a custom rom, then you might want to upgrade to 1.00.25.07 radio and try it yourself.

Thanks ninthsense
I've been worried about trying more updated ROMS - 07 sounds like its good.
I'm still really interested in finding out if other radio stacks work with the 2G and which ones break it!
Yours

radio 1.12

hi
can anyone point me in the direction of the download for this rom - i keep seeing it in people's sigs and i'm jealous
cheers
si
A newer version of the radio stack is not necessarily better than the older one. For example, several members in the UK find 1.09 works better than 1.11
I don't know where the 1.12 radio stack is, but the 1.11 is available here: ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/Radio
1.11 radio problems
I have had strange probems with 1.11, including loss of signal & inability to dial in places where there is a signal. Only starts working again after a soft reset. Its intermittent but reason enough to go back to the QTEK ROM with radio 1.09.

I have a feeling that it depends on where you use your phone...
I had the same probs with droping calls where the phone worked before in the UK with 1.11 going to try 1.10 for a bit.
How To Upgrade MDA PRO from Chinese to English
Hi,
I just bought a T-Mobile MDA PRO in China but it is in Chinese. Can some one advise me which WWE ROM I should use in order not to cause the system hang after upgrade? Can I upgrade WWE ROM from other brand? I got the following info from the set:
ROM version: 1.00.00WWE
Radio version: 1.06.00
Protocol version: 42.40.P8
ExtROM version: 1.13.134 CHT
Thank your in advace
FongSG
fongsg: Go for the Qtek AKU2 ROM 1.30.77 1.30.176 1.09.00 WWE.
It is one of the few ROMs which have AKU2 as well as A2DP for Bluetooth. It's quite fast and stable as well. The radio ROM is also very stable - apparently better than the 1.11 stack.
i upgraded to radio 1.08 and so far have been having lots of probs with the signal, also losing my net connection etc.. anyone suggest a good radio?

Try 1.09. It seems to be the most popular radio stack at the moment.

what about RADIO 1.10 from T-mobile ???
1.10 gives me the best reception (in the Netherlands)
I'm having problems with 1.09 in the US I drop my GPRS and calls fail all the time. I am upgrading to 1.11 to see if this helps.
1.11 is REALLY bad in the UK on o2, bad signal, and once lost it is impossible to get back, have to switch off radio and then back on to get the signal back. That's my experience anyway, 1.09 is the best I have used so far, very strong signal and very stable
Using an O2 XDA Exec with Radio 1.09 in Asia [Manila, Philippines] any other Universal users who have updated to Radio 1.11? How is it? Does it perform better compared to 1.09? I am unsure if I should update my Radio to 1.11, some posts here say 1.11 is unstable for their territory but I would like some info on 1.11 radio ussage in Asia. TIA.
No problems here using 1.11. Been using it for about 1 month. Portugal territory

also have the XDA Exec here in Manila and I have tried 1.11. Went back to 1.09 as it seems to give me better reception
@herbules: Many thanks for the info I'll probably stay with 1.09, may I ask which operator you are on? I am on Globe and their UMTS coverage sucks.

yup...Globe UMTS really sucks, I also tried my Smart line on the Exec and UMTS was almost flawless, except I couldn't get my real player to play streaming vids smoothly
Hey guys,
Where I could download a stable Qtek 9000 ROM which is best in HK and Manila...?
Thanks :wink:

Improvement Advices please!

I have a MDA from T-Mobile with:
- IPL: 1.01
- SPL: 1.40.Olipro
- OS: WM6 CE 5.2.1933 ; Build 18533.0.7.0
- ROM: Schap's WM6 Pro 4.00 RC 25/09/2007 (FULL MODE)
- Radio: 1.16.00.00
- Protocol version: 32.53.7018.01H
I had a few problems with the No GSM, but now everything seems normal.
What improvements would you advise?
SPL to the latest 2.10 or 2.30?
Radio upgrade?
Is it possible to upgrade the Protocol Version? What does it mean?

My personal opinion..do not play with IPL/SPL unless its a die situation...try upgrading radio, i find that some radios are better than others in my device...
Learn how to cook and be a flash junkie...LOL
Most of the times I feel the GSM reception is too weak.
Improving the radio will make reception better?
Wich do you recommend me to instal?? Hermes 300
Yeah, a better Radio will improve your signal, and also save on battery life. 1.54 is the latest and seems to work well for everyone else i know
Check the hermes wiki links above and you can download it there.

Who is your provider?
My stock AT&T radio (1.40) worked good, but i prefer to use higher versions just in case...I dont have any problems with the current one that i am using right now (see signature)
Portugal TMN
I´ve seen those Rom´s for audio upgrade and have researched on how to install them, I think I can make it with sucess. However, I want your opinion on upgrading SPL before the audio update please
"need bootloader version 1.04 to upgrade your radio and ?RadioBootloader version 107 or less"
in http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
How can I check this?
I´ve update the SPL to the 2.10 Olipro and the Radio to the latest version.
However, I can´t make 3G calls, any ideias? It wasn´t working before the update either.
radio o depends on ur provider a lot.
i use 1.43 for australia. 1.54 is ltest but it sux in australia.
so get feedback from those in a similar region. 1.16 is gonna be stuffed either way, there r much better versions.
i also use htc released rom for phone os.
Well, I´ve installed the latest radio and now I´m back with the NO GSM message.
i wonder ir this is a problem with my installation, with the radio rom files, or with my PDA?
Any help please
it means u screwed it up n didnt follow instructions, and probably didnt read wiki.
get a new radio version, or do it again n reflash it.
ensure u have the right ipl/spl version n u understand the risks n bricking when u r upgrading radios.
i have completely wiped my device n bricked it doing radios. so re flash a rom of choice, reflash radios and alllow lots of hours redoing it all.
suggest u try just reflash a radio that works for ur region. be prepared to lose everything n hope u have backed it up before u starrted.
I didn´t bricked. I bought it bricked.
I´have been trying for the past week to recover it from a brick. I´ve read every tutorial in this forum, and didn´t screw up.
However, I haven´t yet found a Radio Rom that work´s stable in this MDA in Portugal TMN.
I´ve tried 1.16.00, 1.38, 1.40, 1.57 (both). When with 1.16 it worked for 2 days in a row, however after that the no gms appears once in a while.

ROM version and Radio version relationship

Just something I'd like to share.
Like most of us here I've been playing around with various WM6 ROM flavours and Radio versions.
What I have found is that there seems to be a relationship of some sort between ROM versions and Radio versions. A relationship regarding stability, speed but also battery drainage. Certain Radio versions simply don't go well with certain ROM versions I have found.
At the moment I am running Schap's WM6 4.31 Lite WWE ROM. Superb ROM BTW.
The Radio version that I have found to be the most 'matching' is Radio 1.51.00.10. It's stable, battery life of this ROM/Radio combination is fantastic, HSDPA works great and it doesn't slow down my TyTN.
I've tried lower and higher Radio versions with Schap's 4.31, most were also stable but there were other issues, like incoming call issues, HSDPA access and speed, battery life not that good, Bluetooth connectivity issues, or the responsiveness of my TyTN decreased dramatically (the latest 1.54 Radio ROM).
Who else has the same experience?
i only hace the 1.54 radio, but i try the older ones immediately, although m hermes is very responsive (crcs 6.1 release 6 ;-))
Regards
I allways flash the OEM Rom with the Radio that I want to use. Then flash the cooked rom.
I tried the 1.51 radio rom version with crcs 6.1 release 7 and it had a horrible power drainage... with 1.54 i had the best so far ;-)
btw: i have a herm300 if there's a relationship^^
Regards,

Doesn't matter but: It's better to get the radio 'seated', 'tested', & working 1st. Then if all is well, flash the OS rom (u must have hardspl installed for both).

but those are trials.i was hoping for a site with includind serials or cracks
well, after testing 1.54 with the release 7 I have to admit that the power drainage is still very high... it seems like the release 6 was the most energy saveing in adversation to release 7 wich looks like the heaviest power consumer ever ;-)

(old one) Diamond Radio Thread

Thread closed. Please visit the new one.
In my experience, I have only tried 1.25.03, 1.25.05, and 1.25.08 on my MDA Compact IV with Swift's V7.0 Full Rom (recommended!)
Out of those three, .08 appears to give me the most stable (and slightly better HSDPA) signal on T-Mobile UK in the south.
I can't say I have noticed any difference in battery life between .05 and .08, both of which are approx (IMO) 30% better than .03
GPS aquisition - maybe a tad faster on .08, but I reckon it is impossible to make any reasonable judgement. I have certainly had no problems with acquisition on any of them, with all of them acquiring within 30 secs.
WIFI - I use a WPA2 encrypted network, and have never got my diamond to connect with any rom or any radio - it times out on the first key exchange so I cannot really comment at this time.
Hope that helps someone.

ill try 08 today when i get home today from work
Reverted back from .08 to .05 after a couple of days. Seems that .05 is better for me: better UMTS signal reception.
ROM: Swift 7.0
Country / Provider: NL / KPN
GPS: .05 and .08 perform similar
UMTS: .05 is better than .08
judging from these posts i think i'll have to try .08 too, i was on .03 as stock and i've changed to .05 and it was stable enough to not go back, however, an increase in HSPDA would be nice
has is ever been clearly determined if there is a Radio Rom upgrade that will take a European Diamond and get it to function on 3G with ATT/Cingular in the US? If so, which one?

has it been clearly proved? i have not seen any real proof that it works or does not work. users here say they know and it sooo obvious, but still no written proof. its been a while since that US version has been around and not 1 peep. so, i really just gave up. even with edge speed my phone still fux up any device that comes near.
I have a question what radio version need to use for 3G in 1900Mhz?, thanks..
.08 rocks!
Well, I had bought the Touch Diamond EURO version, not realizing what I was doing. I live in Anchorage, Alaska, USA, I did the Dutty Rom, HardSPL, etc..
Then I went to the .08 radio, WALLA!
Where I had 1 bar or no service, now I have 5 bars.
I am gonna make a donation to Dutty! This is AWESOME!!!
Up here in AK, soon, we will have 3G via AT&T also SUPPOSEDLY!!
These threads ROCK!!!!
a newbie question again!
i tried to upgrade from .05 to .08 but nothing happened and I think that is because I have original ROM.

You can keep the original ROM and update the Radio.
You need to Hard SPL your Diamond (look in stickies for instructions) then download a radio and install.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE DONE HARD SPL FIRST!!!
otherwise you will end up with a Diamond shaped paperweight
i tried .08 Radio but it drains my battery realy fast. Reverting back to .05 again
I disabled 3G because the phone is switching all the time, bad 3G reception in my neighbor
Country: NL
Operator: T-mobile
Band: tested GPRS, tested 3G, no difference in batt usage @.08
No No No.....08.....
I WOULD ADVISE YOU NOT TO USE 08 RADIO BECAUSE I PUT IT AND WHEN THEY WERE CALLING ME I WAS LOOSING CALLS AND IT WAS MAKING 10 SECONDS TO CONNECT AND OFFCOURSE THE OTHER PERSON WAS CLOSING THE PHONE..............I WAS PUTTING BACK 05 AND EVERYTHING IS OK AGAIN...................
BE CAREFUL MY FRIENDS........DONT UPDATE YET........

How to upgrade Radio only

I'm a newbie and I've recently upgraded my HTC Cingular 8525 to the following =>
ROM = WM6.1 Touch Build 20924 V2.7
HardSPL = Ver 7
Image = Hard-SPL-2.10
IPL = 1.04 (G3 Series phone)
SPL = 2.10.01ipro
Operator version: PDAViet.net
ROM version: DVH_V27_BS
ROM date: 10/30/08co3.62.DVH.V27
Radio version: 1.16.00.00
Protocol version: 32.53.7018.01H
ExtROM version: Black(Full)
HTC Hermes: HERM100
CPU: Samsung 2442A
Speed: 400 MHz
Ram size: 64MB
Flash size: 128 MB
Data bus: 32 bits
Storage size: 67.41 MB
This ROM seems to work great and is very stable and I've noticed a
dramatic improvement in my battery life and faster boot times.
I want to easily upgrade the Radio to a more recent Radio than 1.16.
What is the method of upgrading just the Radio to a recent stable Radio?
What version of the HTC Wizard Radios are recommended? I have seen
a number of posts that indicate users have Radio Version 1.47 and some
with later Radio versions. What are the advantages / risks involved in
a Radio upgrade? I assume that a newer Radio would be able to get
a better 3G signal.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks - John
For starters the wizard isnt a 3g phone so you wont get a better 3g signal and seeing as you have actually got a hermes if you tried flashing a wizard radio you will turn your nice cool little ppc into a paperweight SO DONT EVEN TRY FLASHING A WIZARD RADIO
Anyway radios are high risk for flashing so think carefully before upgrading the radio , you need to consider the pro's and cons of actually upgrading it.
Do you have loss of signal, keep getting disconnected or calls failing to dial, if not then why change the radio.
I am not trying to scaremonger here, but flashing just roms that have no radio is reasonably safe as 99% of the time, errors can be corrected quite easily, when a radio goes wrong it can be a completely different ball game.
Anyway if that hasnt scared you SH**less ,I have personally found that radio 1.47 is the best in my wizard, but i am in the uk and i actually have a wizard and a hermes and an orbit?
To upgrade the radio you just follow the same procedure you do with upgrading a rom ,except of course it is only the radio that is being upgraded and you dont need to reinstall everything afterwards. The O.S. is left exactly the same as before the flash.
JUST MAKE SURE YOU GET A HERMES RADIO if you do want to try flashing a new radio
Sources for Hermes Radio ROM Upgrades
Thanks for your reply. I was hoping for a slightly better signal in marginal reception regions and I had heard that the newer Radios have better reception.
Also with regard to Hermes Radio ROM upgrades - any suggestion on
where to find the 1.47 Hermes Radio ROM that I can upgrade?
Thanks in advance - John
If i was you i would seriously read the wiki here under hermes after you have read some of that i would try one of these that are found here
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
remember what i said though there is a greater risk of bricking your device flashing a radio
