Hi guys,
I've just rooted the AMOLED HTC Desire (Branded, Simlocked, Orange FR) with the following version:
- HBOOT: 0.75
- Radio : 32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11
- Firmware version : 1.15
So i have few questions:
- Do i need to update radio to use with froyo ?
- Which radio should i use to remove simlock ?
- Is there any combination of radio + hboot would brick my Desire ?
- Any suggestion on cooked froyo i should use ?
Thank you very much
- no you dont need to upgrade your radio to use froyo, just to use the hd video recording
- you cant remove a simlock with a radio lol
- radio and hboot dont interact with eachother so i doubt it
- everyone seems to use leedroid these days, i like nextsence tho both roms are pretty awsome tho
@AndroHero: Thank you for you quick reply. But i seached forum, and found that each version of firmware does required a specific radio version. And my radio is quite obsolete. I doubt that froyo requires a higher radio version.
They also mentioned that if radio and hboot is not compatible with each other, my phone will be bricked.
And i'm afraid of upgrading to froyo will also upgrade radio and hboot which leads to loosing rooting capability.

i have used froyo with the stock radio i got with my desire, only problem was camcorder crashed, i have the same hboot version as you and used every radio under the sun with no problems, if you flash a custom rom, they will not come with a radio or hboot upgrade so dont worri about that
@AndroHero: I do see the newest version of LeeDroid do require new radio and they said i need a unlock code("Orange users may need an unlock code.")
I don't have a unlock code, but i still use an orange simcard. Is it ok ?

no orange users need to buy a sim unlock code to sim unlock your desire before you can flash a new radio, otherwise you will get network locked ( meaning you cant use the network, phone, internet ect ), after you have sim unlocked your desire you can continue to use your orange sim as usuall but you need to sim unlock your phone
@AndroHero: So said . Is there anyway so that i can update to froyo without upgrade radio ? I see most cooked roms need updated radio to work.
Anyway, if i want update radio, is there anyway to backup current radio and restore later ? Nandroid seems not to be eable to do that

there is a thread the top of the development section with all the radio's, just take a note of your radio and then download it again if nessessary like i said before as far as i know (and have tried) froyo will work with the old radio's just some of the functions will crash like camcorder, when the first htc froyo rom was leaked we had no new radio so everyone used it with the ones they had

The latest 2 radio's can be used on Orange without an unlock code.
Thank you guys, i will cross my fingers and do a radio update tonight
Old (4.x) radios are not supported with froyo. It may seem to work, but you will end up with problems, and devs will usually refuse to offer any support if you have an old radio.
Some custom roms will flash the radio as well.
I answered all this on MoDaCo this morning...
I've just updated radio to the newest, but the download speed seems never reach 0.5mbps, uplad is 1.6 mbps.I tried with iphone 4 (with the same sim card),it can reach 4mbps for download and 2mbps upload easily. Any idea ?

lol unlucky..
also i've herd people get past the radio problem by doing the update without the sim card in the phone. and then inserting it in.
they might be talking BS, but it might be fact. best thing to do is unlock the handset anyways

Have you checked your APN settings?
hi,i realized the problem is from the operator. There are 3 access point, and only one of them allows me connecting at max speed. "Orange Internet" is suck. Use "Orange World" instead.
Hi! I am in your same situation. I have a Orange branded Desire. Finally, did you update the radio without need SIM unlock?
Thanks
Yes, I CONFIRM that you can update it without simlock.
i need a working radio image for the CDMA version of the htc one V for NTelos.
I think that when I flashed it to cyanogenmod 10 using an image that was based on Virgin Mobile, I didn't notice that Virgin Mobile uses a different radio version, and thus my wifi doesn't work, nor does the mobile network, but the phone (voice) side does.
So, if there are any Ntelos people out there, (as HTC does not have an RUU for NTelos, and I am unable to download the ota wifi updated, please respond, as I would really like to avoid having to send this very good phone off to HTC for a radio error.
:angel:
Bump
Really, no one out there has an HTC One V on ntelos?
(all I need is a backup).
Hey guys I'm hoping i'm not screwed but flashed a custom rom x3reme Sense v5 & OTA and when i rebooted now my Mobile Network connection keeps flashing to disconnected. Unfortunately when i flash back to my backup i still exhibit the same issues. I tried contacting US Cellular to see if they could do something w/ the connection but they don't see an issue on their end.
I believe i have the old radio and the rom may have only been for the OTA update. I am trying to find a RUU to get back to stock hoping that will fix it. I have tried 3 different RUU's for the PrimoC but keep getting either Model ID error or customer ID error. Does anyone know where i can find a RUU for US Cellular. Everything i find for the One V seems to be for Virgin Mobile (i'm a noob so they maybe compatible) but nothing for US Cellular.
HTC One V CDMA
US Cellular
Radio: 1.00.00.0524_2
HBoot: 1.56.000
I have two HTC One M8 phones. One is a T-mobile phone converted GPE. The other one is a brand new unlocked phone I just bought from HTC. I've been having some trouble with my GPE phone not having LTE service where my new unlocked one has full service (T-mobile network). Radio version on new phone is 1.24.21331147A1.09G. Old phone is 1.22 something. Is there a way to pull radio.img off the new phone for flashing to GPE phone? Or is there a flashable 1.24 radio version around somewhere?
Also, are radio images only device specific or are they also carrier specific and/or ROM specific? In other words, does it matter what carrier or ROM for any given radio image?
edit: My One M8 converted GPE is S-off and Super CID.
So my phone is unable to get any 4g signal
2g/3g works fine
tried with multiple sim and locations
I guess i need to flash a new modem for this to work
My phone is s-ON
HAS super CID -11111
Is bootloader unlocked
Has custom rom
Can someone provide a radio for this preferably the international variant
