what is the best

which is the best custom rom 7.0.0 / 7.0.2 or 7.0.3? which is the best radio cause i understerstood that i need to flash the radio to make the gps work, please help
and a tutorial for flashing the radio?

If you are going to stick with a Stable version, go for 7.0.3. As for radio, there are 3 versions, one ending in 20.10, one ending in 19.25 and one with 15.31. It is recommended to flash the one with 19.25. It can be downloaded here:
http://rom.tat.tw/wildfire/wildpuzzlerom/radio/Radio_13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25.zip
Flashing a Radio is same as flashing a ROM Zip file. Go to Recovery > Install Zip from SDCard and choose the above Zip. However, there are a few basic differences :
- Radio's can only be flashed in Clockworkmod 2.x. If you have followed the many tutorials around, you will probably have Clockworkmod 3.x, and wont be able to flash the Radio.
- To overcome this, when you install CM, you will have an app called ROM Manager. Open it, Click Install Clockworkmod Recovery inside the app. It will install v2.5
- Once install is complete, select Reboot into Recovery from within the ROM Manager app.You will then boot into Clockworkmod 2.5 and will be able to flash radios successfully.
Pointers for flashing a radio
- Make sure you have sufficient battery charge
- Do NOT interrupt the process at all. It's sensitive

i din't find the install clockworkmod recovery option inside the app ...
l.e: did it. 10x a lot

It says up top Flash ClockworkMod Recovery.

My radio ends with 20.10 and GPS works just fine. Should I still flash the recommended radio? Do you have any idea what the differences are?

No, if GPS works fine, leave it. Flashing radios should be avoided really, unless absolutely necessary.

Anyway realize that u have the latest radio and u r thinking of flashing a previous radio.
Flashing radio is not recommended unless u have issues with it. It has the potential of bricking the phone when interrupted. Radio has the secure flag.
The wildfires which has been rooted after alpharevX must be having radio ending with 20.10 because they are made s-off from stock froyo AFAIK. In such case when no issues, donot reflash the radio.

[Q] Backtrack/Downgrade android version

Hey guys I installed cm7 nightly on my phone (#114) but it turns out that my gps doesn't work I then flashed Radio_13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25 and it's still not working. What I'm wondering is: I have nandroid backups of android 2.2.1 and 2.3.1 of wildpuzzle and cyanogen cm6. Would it be safe to do a nandroid restore to one of these backups and do you think that might fix the problem I'm having with my GPS?
I also read
ALTERNATE METHOD (SAFE) : This is working. First install cm7 and then make a nandroid backup of it. Then wipe everything and restore the previous nandroid backup of stock froyo rom and use gps to capture your location. Then again wipe everything and restore the cm7 backup. Now gps will be working. Atleast worked for me even after checking 3 times. And once gps on cm7 works, then even after a hard reset it still works. This seems to be an issue only when freshly installing cm7. This is definitely a safe method.

I would like to do this if the first option doesn't work but I'm not sure where to get the stock froyo rom. I have RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_signed (is this a stock froyo rom?) however my kernel is 2.6.35.13-nFinity so would it be safe to downgrade to an earlier kernel?
I haven't reflashed the radio update so should I do that before I try any of the above methods?
Thanks in advance
Ps. I did read as much as possible before posting this question but I can't really find an absolute answer

First, make sure GPS is indeed not working. Cyanogenmod will only show you the GPS icon when you actually use an app which uses GPS, eg: Any navigation app. Simply enabling GPS does not show the GPS icon on the statusbar.
Second, after you have confirmed that, (I am assuming you used Clockworkmod 2.x to flash the Radio), yes, you can downgrade to your Nandroid backups. Its safe, and, will not cause any issues. You can downgrade to your 2.2.1 Stock, make sure GPS works there, and, follow that post to get CM7 GPS working.

Thanks!
Great thanks for the help man!!

Rooted HTC Wildfire GPS problem

Hi everyone. Ok so ive rooted my htc wildfire to S-OFF using alpharev x. Ive also installed a custom rom. But ive noticed that since ive rooted the phone, my gps doesnt want to work anymore... Does anyone know how to fix this??? Help please.
Thanks!

Backup your ROM, then flash a ROM where GPS did work, activate GPS and start any GPS app (like Google maps).
Let it get a fix on your position and wait for a few minutes. Then restore your ROM...did the trick for me.
Of course don't forget wipe and factory reset in-between.

Thanks, but I only have CyanogenMod 7 ROM... It's the only one I have so I don't know witch other ROM to download where the GPS works. Do you maybe know which ROM I can flash where the GPS works??

I've had my stock rom backupped before flashing cm7.1...but a stock sense rom should work. I'm not an expert but I'm pretty sure it is quite easy to find.
Btw I did some research and obviously for some people this method only fixes the problem in Google maps, not in navigation - I haven't checked that yet.
I hope it works because the other method would be reflashing radio which I want to avoid if possible.
Btw I got this from here:

Please tell me if it works for you.

@undbandnc Hi, going to try this now. Thanks!

Worked for me
Updating the Radio to the latest version Worked for me!

My girlfriend has the same problem. I rooted her wildfire and installed CM7, now GPS is not working for her. She try it with the app gpsfix, but it still dont find her location. Is there any easy fix for this? She's in the states now, and need it for navigation. I could flash the phone, but I'am in europe.

flash radio thats easy go in CWM and flash radio.zip
here are radios http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Wildfire:_Support_Downloads

Can you tell me what she has to do exactly? I haven't a wildfire with me so I cant check it by myself. Thank you.

Perform a Install Zip from SDCard in Clockworkmod (Same as installing a ROM.zip, which you must have used when installing Cyanogenmod 7),
The only pre requisites are that it must be Clockworkmod 2.x. So, flash this attachment first:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=662193&d=1311319218
Tl;Dr:
- Flash the Update1.zip attachment I linked above
- Flash the Radio.zip from the post where Deni has linked, (Use the 19.25 Radio)
- Done. Make sure there is sufficient battery charge before doing this, and dont interrupt the process because radio flashing is sensitive.

Thank you. Will try to tell her this, but I'am not sure if she can do this steps by herself.

So I told her how to flash. First update1.zip, than the radio. update1.zip installation is successful, then a reboot, then the radio zip installation, but its always end with a "installation aborted". The size of the files she downloaded is ok. What can we do now?

Dont reboot after flashing update1.zip. The point is completely lost if you do that. Directly flash the Radio after flashing the update1.zip

Put this (Radio_13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25) file in the root of your sdcard.
If u already have ROM Manager downloaded and flashed CWM 2.5.0.7, then skip those 2 steps.
1 - Download ROM Manager from the market.
2 - Choose 'Flash ClockworkMod Recovery', and follow the instructions.
Continue with these..
3 - When u are done with that, press 'Reboot into Recovery'
4 - Press the OK button, and then your device will reboot in the Recovery.
5 - Choose 'Install zip from sdcard'.
6 - Choose the Radio_13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25.zip.
7 - If you're done with this, choose 'reboot system now'.
Here you are

Is it necessary to use CWM 2.5.0.7 or will any other version work for this for example 3.0.2.0?

Just install like a new ROM. One such stock rooted Froyo can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877977
The only different thing is that this will have to be flashed in Clockworkmod 2.x. (I guess you must know how to flash Radio's in CM7, so its not a big issue)
And yes, to OC, you will have to install a custom kernel like this one:

I also found that i have cwm backup from original rom that I can restore. Does this also restore previous radio or kernel or do I have to do it manually?

it will not touch the radio, but it will restore the stock kernel. (Or whichever kernel you had installed when you took that backup)

I got a problem. I want to get original Sense by restoring backup from CWM. Mine works, but has a pattern that i dont remember and a email wich i dont remember either. Does anyone happen to have a backup of a wildfire without password or could someone advice something else? I tried RUU but my win7 x64 is causing trouble, or the drivers.

Just flash the stock froyo ROM I listed in the first post I made in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877977). If you don't know how to get Clockworkmod 2.5.0.x, then:
- Download this attachment, place on your SDCard:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=662193&d=1311319218
- Flash the zip (update1.zip) using your existing Clockworkmod 5.0.2.0
- Device will reboot and will start Clockworkmod 2.5.0.7
- Perform Data Wipe and Choose Install Zip from SDCard, select the ROM Zip file, and let it install.

For the rooted ROM it says No Hboot | No Radio, what does that mean?

Just what is says. It does not include the Bootloader (HBoot), and it does not include the baseband (Radio). So, for these two components, what you are having on your device at this moment will remain. (ie - They will not be updated when you flash the ROM)

I Installed the Rom from recovery, but all I get is the HTC logo and the startup tone then it switches off and I get the same thing again. Help please!
Edit: It's working now but I cannot force move apps like I could do before. Why is that?

[Q] HT Wildfire GPS Problem

Hi guys.
I flashed my HTC with CyanogenMod 7 for the HTC Wildfire V7.1.0.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1143125 and when I finished, the GPS wasn't working.
I flashed the radio again, and still it's not working...
Any clue?

Then again wipe everything and restore the cm7 backup. Now gps will be working. And once gps on cm7 works, then even after a hard reset it still works. This seems to be an issue only when freshly installing cm7. This is definitely a safe method.

*make sure your battery is fully charged before updating radio*
1. download all 3 versions of radios to the phones sd card (place it in root map).
2. (download and) open ROMManager.
3. scroll down and go to >> All ClockwordMod Recoveries (next: CWM).
4. Downgrade your CWM to version: 2.5.0.7 (this is important because as far as I know it the only CWM version you can manually update radio version without getting an error).
5. After downgrading, scroll up and go to >> Reboot into recovery
6. clear dalvik chache
6. Install radio version 13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25 instead of 3.35.20.10
7. reboot phone, you will now have perfect working GPS, WIFI and Signals, if not, try other 2 radio versions. Mind that the GPS Icon changed.
8. Open ROMManager again and download and install latest version of CWM again.
When 3.35.19.25 works, you can reflash to 3.35.20.10. Most of the times GPS will still work and you have the updated radio as well.
Try this, helped to me
