Radio ROM for Marange? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Possibly a fairly noob question but do I need to install a radio with Marange ROM?
I have an HTC Desire, A181 on the Virgin Australia Network. Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers

lol
if u mean a radio as in the OP for that rom "Lastest radio recommended" then probably yes. iv flashed rom's without having the "recommended" radio and had no problems but u might aswell flash the lastest radio coz most roms now recommend it. its easy to change anyway, just flash via fastboot commands.

Thanks for the reply.
So regardless of the ROM I should just flash with the latest radio, I have read it depends on country?
I am wanting to put this ROM on my phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1627448
Any links would be appreciated as I'm having trouble finding info or latest radio ROMS on this. CHeeers!

Offering Money to Fix Phone 2.2

Hello,
I am willing to offer someone 20USD if they can tell me how to fix my HTC desire. I was running on a Asia ROM which was upgraded to a Euro one so i could update. Upon updating to 2.2 I have no wifi, or SD and "process system" keeps crashing
The details of the phone are:
Model A8181
OS: 2.2 (from OTA)
Baseband: 32.36.00.28U_406.00.02_2
Kernel: 2.6.29-0cb9f166
Build is 2.09.405.8
Please Help Me.
You need to flash the newest radio, should fix all your problems.
You're using a radio from eclair (2.1).

With the 2.2 ota, im not sure if there is a way to downgrade, as I read one of the devs accidentally upgraded to an OTA release. This is due to the bootloader being updated to one that hasnt been hacked yet.
My 2 cents is hold tight and hope one of the devs figures a way to downgrade, that way you could install a custom 2.2 which doesnt have these issues.
Good luck, sorry i couldnt be of much use :/
EDIT- i completely missed that flakz0r lol, can it still be flashed through recovery if he used a 2.2 OTA update? if so http://android.adamg.co.uk/bravo/radio/32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20.zip
you still have the older 2.6.29 kernel too
flash the radio to the latest and flash one of the 101 roms people are releasing based on the new ota 2.2 as that should update your kernel

Did you download the ota update, or have you got root and installed one of roms on this forum? If it's ota I dont see how your radio can be the one you've stated. If it's a rom from the forum flash the new radio 32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20.zip
I dont know, but it should be possible. Also, the official OTA update comes with the new radio, so i dont understand how he was able to update the rom but not the radio. That is assuming he isnt rooted, of course.

I just fixed something like this today. It's a bit of an involved process though. Send me a pm so we can talk via IM.

I flashed one of the stock roms from here to get it to be a euro one instead of asia.

Yeah, you just need the radio. Put it on your sdcard and flash it like you flashed the rom. Dont touch your phone, let it work, takes a while.
so....who got the 20 dollars?
lol i think it should be falkz0r he was the first to provide a solution...
btw...he managed to go from asian to european version through goldcard and the RUU file. Done that to my previous Hero too.

I got him through the entire process using teamviewer and MSN. Still haven't got the $20 though....
And flashing a radio isn't a solution

Wouldn't have worked.
Wasnt expecting to receive anything, XDA is a place to share knowledge and help each other. I expect people to help me too when i'm in trouble.

Help flashing radio, paranoid

hey guyss
had my desire z for awhile. Flashed about 20 roms already and lots of fun with them, currently my reception has been terrible and i want to know how a new radio.
Q: what is the best radio currently available for the NAM BELL Dezire Z?
my specs
android 2.3.2
kernal - mexdroid kernal provided (Flippys kernal)
never ever updated my htc dezire z using the update system, so it has the version that was launched with it
Radio - 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26_M
Important part here: i rooted and S-Offed using the Hboot method & Visionary R12 method from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9143423&postcount=3, and have not touched that stuff since. i used Hboot to get S-OFF in the gtrab guide. Other than that just some tips to flashing a radio. (heard theres a .zip i can flash thorough recovery.)
thanks
edit** paranoid a bit cause it may brick, but if i follow some Proper detailed instructions i should be okay. First time here in radio area.
Honestly, Just follow the directions exactly how they are posted and you should be fine.

You should download all 7 different radios flash & use them each for a couple of days and compare. I'm on 02.27_M myself & I'm getting better network coverage, faster download & upload's and better wifi coverage. From what I've read results will vary so you have to see wich one works best for you.

Hey,
The radio link in my signature is the one that I am using for my DZ on the Telus network. It's much more accurate than the stock one that came with it and more accurately depicts when I'm in a 3G/3G+/H network and the signal seems to be more stable. The best part of radios is that if one doesn't work, you can always just flash over it with an older/newer one or the original one.

[Q] Can I install ARHD 3.0.0 on my 1.28.1400.5 ?

Yeees I am sorry but my head is going to explode soon from trying to single reasonable post about this matter.
So I have been trying to read the threads about instaling the ARHD rom for One X but I am just so confused right now, add to that my own confusion with the abilities of my China HTC.
First, do I have to flash the 1.26.401.2 firmware package to be able to install this ROM? My build is 1.28.1400.5 which is a China one. Can I even install this rom?
Second, If I dont have to install the firmware do I just perform SuperWipe and flash the ROM?
Thanks!

Correct, just superwipe and flash, the 1.26 firmware was only needed for pre 1.26 shipped phones

I thought it was not possible to flash the radio on a SON device. How can it be possible ?
@xmmo
Does it also work on branded models?

I found another Chinese site with downloadable radios. Just use the Google translation. No need to register or anything else...maybe you'll have more success with this site...

The radio ways are different now, now it is just one file.
So thats why it is possible.

As long as your boot loader unlocked or s-off and having cwm, yes!

UK HOX here, Leedroid rom with 1.1204.105.14. HBOOT listed as 1.1204.103.14.
noob question, how do i see what radio i have currently? its a stock vodafone branded phone. When i boot using vol + power the radio version comes up as "none" is this normal? because im pretty sure on the previous htc devices i owned i could see the radio version
Then it seems the radio is part of the ROM then!
So you don't need to flash a radio if you have the latest one in the custom ROM already. Its in system/etc of the ROM.
Very interesting..... Has anyone tried this yet?
I've tried it with InsertCoin 6.4
Doesn't seem to have any effect.

Did CWM say that the flash did go well?
This only changes the radio file, I don't know if it will change radio version number in build.prop

Doesn't settings get the radio version number from the radio, rather than a static text file? Would only make sense...

Radio and kernel update related question

Hello all,
My desire has [email protected] #2 kernel. Since I've noticed that the perfomance has been decreased (lagging), should I flash another kernel?
Also, about the radio, where to look for the version? Is it the baseband version? (Which is: 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27) Which problems would indicate an update of radio?
Thank you for your time!

Your radio version is 5.11.05.27. The latest radio 5.17.05.23 available here link. I have yet to hear somebody solving his problems after flashing new radio. CM 7 recommends latest radio though. Flash with caution. Brick territory

The only bad thing that happens is that when I am talking to a friend, it starts with me stop hearing my friend and then the call will be ended..
I know it could be his problem, as well, but he says it's happening only with me. He has HTC Desire HD...we had flashed android revolution to his device..
