I have had my Diamond for a week now and the battery life is lacking terrible even after selecting GSM only and disabling GPRS auto attach. I have the Ver 1.37.421.3 WWE ROM with Radio 1.00.25.03.
I understand that Radio Ver 1.00.25.05 gives somewhat better battery life and the Ver 1.93.421.x ROM is also more responsive. If any body can post the ROM somewhere, I would appreciate it.
I do not want to update to a non South African ROM due to warranty issues.
Any help would be appreciated.
LOOKS LIKE YOU MAY BE STUCK WITH WHAT YOU HAVE
oppppss....sorry for shouting
Hello, I think Dumping would be good. or try the htc website for the rom.

Local website does not have the update, I have to take it in to them and all the other ROM updates will not install on my version due to the locale. Seems as if a day off from work and a drive to the agents is the only option except if I load the UK ROM with the HardSPL fix..
Thanks for replying anyway.
@adsl3g you have PM.
i have the same issue. i'd like to flash another radio at least.
All the roms are on rapidshare and that site looses its marlbes when i try to download anything. All i get all the time is "your ip address is already downloading a file". I guess it cant tell the difference between a person and a proxy server.

Yes thanks a million for the info - all went well, battery life seems to be better and the overall speed of the Diamond has definately improved.. I will upload that ROM for access to members of this site in due course when my bandwith will allow me to.
Hi guys,
Would you guys mind sending me all the juicy details please? I am trading in my TyTN on a Diamond, getting it on Monday.
adsl3g, seems you *also* use that nick everywhere

Thank you!

I have just downloaded the rom upgrade off the O2 website (ver 1.60.50) and installed. Initially it was trying to connect to the internet! Eventually I got it working, but after hard resetting the version still says 1.60.00wwe, Rom date 12/03/03, extRom ver 1.60.50 - all as before.
Does anyone know if the upgrade has actually worked but the info not been updated, or does this mean that the update hasn't worked and I must have had an error somewhere?
Any help, advise appreciated.
I thought these forums where to help each other out and provide information. It is disappointing that no one wants to help, or provide a little guidance.

Absolutely nothing changed?
I thought it's not possible? Did you see a progress bar on XDA's display during the upgrade? if so, the memory has been accessed, so your rom is the new one, there is just a mess in identification. As far as I know, extROM changes the identity (it is it's main purpose), did you use it?

Maybe I'm wrong - but it seems that you are upgrading from 1.60.50 to 1.60.50. Right? As such, everything WOULD be the same!
I did see the progress bar, and the documentation before the upgrade on the O2 website sugests the Rom to be 1.60.00wwe and the extRom to be 1.60.50
I would have expected the actual Rom to now be 1.60.50wwe.
Has anyone else managed to upgrade to the official O2 ROM that is on their site and can confirm the ROM info? Also what apps etc would confirm that it has been upgraded if the info hasn't been updated but upgrade has work?
Many thanks for help and advice.
I'm not sure, but doesn't higher number mean later+better ROM?
If yes, have a look at 1.72 by T-mobile - there should not be many differences! :lol:
Since I have only just bought it I don't want to upgrade to an unofficial ROM in case it invalidates the Warranty should anything go wrong with it. May look at using a ROM from another supplier in a few months though.
Can anyone confirm if the ROM ver should be changed?
Thanks

You need to give people time to reply mate - we don't LIVE on these forums you know.
Anyhow, to answer your posts, yes, you have worked it out, the O2 ROM update, which is described as 1.60.50, is actually just the extended ROM element.
The system ROM is still 1.60.00
This confused me, and no doubt, lots more people too, and it's a bit STUPID of O2 to describe it this way.
Thus, you have in effect flashed your XDA2 to the exact same ROM it had before hand.
Curses to O2 for the confusion. Not good of them!
Thanks, and sorry for being impatient
O2 need to sort this out as I have done a ROM upgrade that could have fried my machine if I did it wrong that was unneccessary.
Thanks again.
Well, O2 is not alone in this - the current i-mate ROM is listed as 172126. The ROM version is 1.72.00, but the Extended ROM is 1.72.126.
I think they do this for internal tracking purposes. They get the ROM from MS, but they tweak the ExtROM themselves. It is possible for them to release multiple ExtROM versions in the same ROM version, so THAT is what they specify.
Make sense? Just a stab in the dark as to the logic of the release numbers.
Dear All senior members of this forum,
i'm confused in understanding the areas taken care by updating the RADIO ROM of UNIVERSAL. can anyone just list down the benifits for updating a radio rom.
i want to make sure if one has to stay updated with the latest radio rom available of would the stock radio rom (Mine 1.09.00) stays fine forever.
looking forward,
farhaan rehmani
hi farehmani, I'm not a guru nor a senior member. But from what I understand.. updates radio ROMS are musch like the same as updated sortware. It has fixes for old problems like bad reception, low quality call audio... stuff like that.
But from what I've heard, the best radio for you also depends on your carrier/location... so just try all of 'em out. See which works best for you... you can easily change radio ROM versions anyway (no need to do hard reset, a soft reset is enough).
I would say, "if its aint broken, don't fix it"
Generally, the latest radio ROM gives you better reception, better sound quality. There are some people on this forum, who had problems with their device with respect to the latency of their devices in answering the calls. Most of them got it resolved by upgrading their device to the latest radio(ATM, the latest one is 1.15)
So, the bottomline is that if you facing problem(s) with your device regarding its phone part, the, you may consider upgrading the radio
thanx but i have another question...
Thanx for answering,
i asked this question cuz since i updated my pda with Jwrightmcps's ROM 2.02.00 WWE. i am unable to send MMS (there is no problem in settings) as it keeps the mms in the outbox with a pending sign of clock on it after uploading 95 or say 99%. secondly i was unable to sign in the MSN Live with this.
i used Radio 1.13.00. Could this be the problem. cuz i used 1.14.00 and 1.09.00 with previous versions of Win CE ROMS. they worked like a dream.
pls. advise.
farehmani.

the mms problem is not in the radio rom or Jw's rom. you just need to download the cab file with your operator settings and then you will be set.

I concur, it's not really the radio. It's either the WM6 ROM itself or you haven't got the correct settings.
i have read the wiki but still dont get it i can unrar jw newest rom just to get the radio only.but i have radio 15 from other source.how can i put it to my device?thanks
I need this ROM as I upgraded to the 1.72. It cleared my radio stack (don't know how to find/install a new radio stack) and doesn't allow my previous installed information to be reinstalled (the xbackup is working but then the device just resets itself to the initial setup process without any of my previous information loaded in).
I went to the O2 site but they need the IMEI to get the 1.60. The IMEI was also cleared when I installed the 1.72. I couldn't find any downloads on this site or the wiki.
I just want my XDAII back to how it was before I foolishly made the mistake of thinking that it would work all fine instead of thinking with the proverb if it ain't broke don't fix it!
Thankyou
do you want rom 1.66 or rom 1.66 plus a radio stack in which case what version
or do you just want a radio stack
radio stacks are not included in the pure roms it's a seperate file called radio.nbf
Thankyou for your reply!
I would like the ROM 1.66 and the radio stack please (do I also need the extended ROM?) - as far as the RS goes, anything that would work for the US T-Mobile Prepaid network...
Thankyou
Found the IMEI under the battery
but the O2 site says I can't download as my device should already have the 1.60WWE rom version.
try going ti xda-wiki and taking a look at the ftp
nothing to help me

Anyone tested out the radio yet?
I installed it, stopped customization and then ran my dcd carrier cab.
So far so good, seems to be pretty responsive. For me its more responsive then some recent custom roms I've ran. No issues with the calls or with data. I'll report if anything comes up.
Can you flash just the radio using the SD card?? I have a Titan, but my friend has the Vogue..... I have the radio that was posted on the Titan upgrade forum by DCD, can this be flashed to his Vogue??

This new Bell ROM is simply THE BEST one I have tried. Now granted I am a Bell customer but this ROM gets a GPS lock faster then any of the other ones I have tried.
Hi folks,
During the rom update, do we need to let the customization runs or soft reset before ?
Thank you
question new to the whole rom upgrading dealy
would the bell 6.1 upgrade interfere with my verizon service and whatnot?

Yes. I just let 'er rip. Lost a lot of cool utilities but well worth the pain of finding them again. GPS lox in seconds. Indoors! It's a beautiful thing. No more waiting 10 minutes for GPS. No worries about upgrading from a non-Bell rom, either.
(i am a Bell customer)
Can I use the ROM to my HTC Touch. I do not use Bell. I'm from Bangladesh and use a local provider here. So what you suggest, should I proceed with that?

Should be fine, just don't let the customization run. Be sure to take down all of your settings before you flash too, incase they are lost.
link down
Can someone put the file on rapidshare or some other server. The HTC link to download the file is saying "not found" now.
Thanks

official bell 6.1 update
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong here? I have a new Alltell Touch, I lost my old modded one as far as Alltel is concerned. I downloaded the new Bell rom because i want the upgraded radio. I unlocked my phone using Cokeman's unlocker and tried to flash to the Bell rom. It gets to 31% and stops and will not go any further, when I retry it gives me an "Invalid Vendor ID" error. I am able to reflash back to the original Alltel rom with no problem. Am I missing a step or doing something wrong? I'm not new to this and I'm getting my arse handed to me by this phone, lol.
HELP! I installed the rom update and I have gps, threaded text messaging and everything but I don't have the "slide panel" interface signature to windows mobile 6.1! why not?

Are you sure you are using a vogue and not an elf? Do they have CDMA in Bangladesh, I would assume it would be GSM.
IF you are using GSM you can't flash that rom.

is it aprils fool joke?
So this one is different from the blackstone one that need security unlock, in the radio thread ?
Nevertheless, i've tried the blackstone one for a week, and the phone became hot and quickly lose battery. I reverted back to 1.12.25.16 which is really good and my personal best.
I tried all radio and updated every time there's a new one, it's the first time i fell inconfortable enough to restore a previous one.
My operator is orange france, in paris, with a lot of 3g / edge switch because of the poor coverage in public transport.
I don't think so, device info shows Radioversion 1.13.25.24
- Its true
- and extracted from an offical ship diamond ROM
- You dont need security unlock
- Its for Diamond
- Have a look and try
