Please help on rom and radio for 8525

i done cid unlock and sim unlock also installed Hard-SPL-v7 and have now download : Hermes_WM6_WWE_vp3G_v3.62.3_ATT_Full.rar: rom
does this have a radio on or do i need to install one
and also what order does have to be in like
install radio first, then the rom or the rom first then the radio
thank guys

I dont believe Hermes_WM6_WWE_vp3G_v3.62.3_ATT_Full comes with a radio. you should do a search on that to read whats in the rom. If you are going to upgrade the radio PLEASE make sure You read the Wiki on what to do( search under radio rom upgrade or something like that). Be aware that there may be a problem upgrading to radio rom version 1.5x and check to see what people in your area are using as it could impact on reception and battery life. IF you decide to upgrade the Radio rom, be aware that ANY problems doing so can brick you mobile & it isn't fixable... you can use the pda part, but not Phone. So saying, if you follow the instructions in the wiki you should have no problems. Happy Upgrading. (Read the wiki).

thanks ultramag69 for reply
what if i dont upgrade the radio can i just upgrade to rom ?
thanks

Yes you can just upgrade the OS.
It is not advisable to upgrade radio all the time, so if your current radio version you have works good in your area, then stick with it!

Radio improves your signal reception a bit, and it all depends on the area in which you live in too! I would suggest you upgrade your radio to 1.40 atleast. Radio links can be found in wiki.

i think i am going to play around with for while then do the radio.
once again thanks

Do what the man says and you'll be OK, Then you can find a ROM that takes your fancy !!!

thanks for that. Good news, I followed the steps and was able to flash to the rom from GXFX. Its very nice, much better than the stock o2 one.
I would really like to flash to the stock HTC rom but get the error message 'invalid product ID.'
What can I do about this please ? The product I have is an o2 xda and have olinex 1.40 running on it.
many thanks

You cant flash any stock ROM other than O2 because your Diamond is Ignito from O2, tried it myself and got the same as you. There is plenty of Cooked ROMS in here that are way better than any stock ROM for you to try !!!

thanks, will stick with what I have got i.e. the rom from gxfx

help please !!!!!

Flash a Stock rom first, then the rom you want.
Theres a Stock rom floating around that has the radio rom removed so see if you can find that...

Want to Flash my HTC Diamond (India) Rom

I have tried to get the basics rt but it became an info overload. I know i would require HARDSpl to flash to a cooked rom. ...but am not sure how to install hard spl and then go abt flashing my phone...
would really appreciate if someone can give it out in steps or provide links stepwise on how to do it.
thanx in advance

they are all already there just read the sticky threads in this forum for more information, along with hspl you should get your phone security unlocked and update a radio rom so that the switch to a custom rom is very smooth. I'm in India and I have flashed most of the roms here without any issues.

Try this TUT by Badwolve - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=608668
It gives a good indepth yet clear instruction set to flash your ROM from ground up.

[Q] Rom upgrading - cant find it on here or google!

Hi All
Well, after being without one for almost 5 years ... I have bought a second hand HTC Universal, mine to be specific is the O2 XDA Exec.
Being as it was second hand all I got was the handset and USB cable, no discs, box ... nothing! I am really trying to down-grade the ROM on it. It currently has WM6.5 .. and from what I can tell it is defo a cooked ROM from somewhere. I want to down grade to WM5 so it is faster and I dont need any of this fancy stuff as I will be using it for home automation.
I have done ROM upgrading before on my old HTC Touch HD ... so can anyone point me in the right direction please

Welcome to fora, have a look on my sig link, you´ll find what u need.

really being said by orb3000, you can get it from the link in his signature or you find at http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Universal_ROMS_Radios

Hello all again.
Please please can someone help me here. My HTC Uni is now a brick, stuck in bootloader.
I have done the task 28 55aa and from what I can tell, it did what it was meant to. I cant seem to upgrade any roms tho, I have downloaded 5 so far and all have failed saying it cannot find RAPI.dll ... can anyone help me please?

Sorry, maybe I should explain what I have tired! Might help lol
OK, I bought this of eBay and it came with a really bad home cooked Rom that was really slow and laggy. I wanted to downgrade it down to WM5 again so I picked a ROM of here and set about updating. At this point I need to mention this, I cant remember the name of the rom BUT I DO NOT BLAME the cooker of the rom, any rom cookers or xda developers for the problems I now have ... i did this fully knowing i am doing it at my own risk!
So, I didnt do alot off research and found out later that you need a special driver to flash in windows 7. Since trying to flash my HTC it has been stuck in boot loader. I have tried the task 28 55aa, tried upgrading just the radios and just the roms. Hard reset .. all that I can think and no luck at all.
Some of the roms come wtih "MaUpgradeUt_noID" this works, but the "ROMUpgradeUt" doesnt as it says the RAPI.dll file is missing.
Please can someone help me!

Again, on my sig link you´ll find a lot of help threads for problems like that.
I can recommend you to do a DOC format, instructions on my link as well.

all is well now, thanks orb. without your super guide I'd still have a dead HTC.
For all those who want to know, I had to upgrade my ROM on a windows XP machines ... luckily work surprisingly allowed me to do it!!
