hiya chaps, just wondered if anyone has upgraded to thE 1.11.00 radio rom, as i seem to have problems now with it.
i seem to be missing calls even though i have full signal, when people call me they say it goes straight to voicemail. as far as i can tell, this isnt a network problem, as i have 2 o2 phones and people can always get me on my other one, has anyone else had this problem???
Im going to downgrade back to 1.10.00 to see if this does shift the problem anyway.
joey. 8)
I've got exactly the same problem. I'm using a T-mobile mda pro with a Qtek rom
1.30.77
1.11.00
Sometimes the phone rings like 1 sec and then I have a missed call. Or it just doesn't do anything and I have a voicemail later on.
I've had this problem since the beginning. Used like radio 1.03 1.07 1.09 1.10 and 1.11
My battery lifetime is degraded to like 2 days now. If I disable BT it seems it lasts much much longer.
I'm thinking of maybe changing it to the original "new" t-mobile rom and look if that solves anything. I'm hesitated because I would need to reinstall all the programs again and I dont really feel like it.
I might just flash the radio to 1.10 or 1.09 so that I doesn't have to reinstall. Maybe I wait for the new radio
I've been using this radiorom for almost 2 months but I don't have any errors with it... maybe it depends on the network you use, too... (nokia or ericsson base stations for example, etc)
I have this problem with 1.11.00 after every true missed call.
why don't you upgrade to 1.13 version, already uploaded to ftp
I'll try it.
Thanks.
Update: I think it's fixed with 1.13.00. Thank you!!!
hi,i cant found on ftp this radio rom
Search in uploads.
Good luck!
i've always had these kinds of issues on all the different model pda/phone smartphones. i just get used to it....
besides it's usually my wife getting me tp bring something home for dinner.

It is normal that when you Leave your BT enabled it will deminish you battery more faster then when it's disabled... Don't leave your BT on for a long period of time, BT constantly sends a radio signal with a range of 10 meters, so everytime it's sending signal it will degrade your battery that is normal...
Dears....this is what i call best of the best.....after a lot of FLASING....the best performance,stability,functionality and no HANGS.....is this compination.....the latest Hilmi WM6 v1.1 with Radio 1.13...and if you care about adding the Arabic languge to your device .....the Arabizer works like i have never seen before even with the original rom came with my device....one more thing a can say....as we all know there still NO VIDEO CALL...I DID NOT TEST THE 3G ( WE DO NOT HAVE UNTIL NOW.. USING GMAIL INSTED WORKING GREAT )...
I WILL KEEP THE REST FOR YOU......

Yes...the problem is Radio 1.14....i did test it .....alot of hangs....just try 1.13 working very smooth and also Arabizer
problem is 1.13 has very low voice quality and voice tends to skip a lot specially with vodafone..that was with inrda 3.3 b6 .
now am using 1.14 with mobinil...very very bad gprs performance..voice is ok though...
i will try to go back to 1.13
thanks a lot
sorry
I'm sorry to bother you guys with what will probably turn out to be an easy solution/answer, but.... how do you get 1.1 wm6 with radio 1.13? i figured (and already flashing) that i should download helmi 1.1 ( the x.rar file) and download the German 1.13 radio rom (only one available, is there a difference in the languages regarding the files it installs?) and overwrite the files inside the "x.rar" (helmi's 1.1 wm6 rom) and THEN upgrade? i'm really really confused here....
My dream would be:
A guide to:
Installing wm6
with stable rom/radio whatever
and WORKING gprs (t-mobile)
And that when someone calls me, it DOES ring, instead of a half second ring before the voicemail kicks in
if anyone would like to help me personally out with the first part, and a lot of people with the second.... i would be very thankful!
Muchos gracias from The Netherlands

the phone ringing bit! just goto phone pad> menu> options>services tab> call forwarding,. get settings then adjust the settings when they come onscreen ie untick forward all calls, or change the amount of seconds to "forward after"
Arabizer & Hard keyboard!

Hello astraman. Thank you for your post, it's really enlightening. I want to check something with you...
1. Agu_Gaby Arabizer built 347.
2. Arabizer built 337.
I have used Helmi, Indra & PDAVIET and installed both the above (1 & 2). I realized with #1, when installing the Arab_Keyboard_fix files, the enlglish typing with the hard keyboard, it allow 70 charecters as well as arabic. Whereas with #2, with the same Arab_Keyboard_fix files installed, I get 160 for english and only 70 for arabic!
Now what is the difference and how to resolve this?
If any of you members know what's wrong, please explain..
thanks
Where Can I Get The 1.13.oo Radio From?
Thanks
This idea doesnt work for me. I use Vodafone UK, and after this radio install, its been one problem to the other. Major hangs, going back to 1.14
Yes, you are right 1.13 is better tahn 1.14.1, as gprs in 1.14 wouldn't reconnect after a voice call, sometimes it hangs in dialing and doesn't work unless you soft reset. Those peoblems occurs also with many wm5 and all other wm6 not helmi only. But after downgrading to 1.13 it is better now and no problem in dialing at all, but the GPRS problem aoccured once with me. I am using Vodafone, and didn't try it with Mobinil. I didn't install arabizer yet, hoping to try that version comes bundeled with Jasjam, it was the best in wm5 but not tested yet with helmi wm6 v1.1.

what network do you use and where are you located? I think this might have to do with service providers. now I am back to 1.14 and my exec is happier .
I'm using Vodafone AU on Helmi 1.1 WM6 w/Radio 1.14...
No Problems here yet...
In Italy too with 3, no problem with radio 1.14
I am using LVSW ROMs since 26/03 version, through 08/04 until present 19/05. I also have 1.41 version of Radio ROM. Since I've started using these ROMs, I'm noticing problems with radio stack.
For example, while I was driving a car across Europe (UK->PL) few weeks ago, GSM module hanged almost every time I was crossing a border between countries and phone was loosing signal from one country and had to register in another. All I could see was little [!] sign instead of signal bars, and restarting phone module and/or whole device could help it. Two days ago I was on M1 from Sheffield to London and I've noticed that GSM module just died - pressing green button did just nothing (despite I had full signal bars), and people trying to call me that time, were saying they had regular calling signal, like I was missing a call. Besides that whole device was working properly, with no problems whatsoever.
On the other hand, I have no problems with dropped calls or data sessions. Looks like it is happening mainly on the move, and phone has problems with registering with network properly.
So there is a question(s) - does anyone have similar problems with LVSW ROMs or 1.41 Radio ROM? Should I downgrade Radio ROM to 1.40 or 1.38? I have HardSPLv7 installed, so is it safe to just use this RUU - ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Hermes/HERM_Radio_Only_1.40.30.00_CustomRUU.rar ? I've been searching forums, but haven't found much information on *downgrading* Radio ROM in particular.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Its the radio rom causing you problems. I've also had problems with data connections in particular using ROM 1.40 and 1.41 (in Asia, on UMTS and EDGE networks).
Suggest you re-flash the pretty-much proven 1.38 ROM. You can find the download link from the Wiki.
radio downgrade
I used the 1.40 on black 2.5 and it was ok , then I upgraded to 1.41 radio and I had problems with the sound quality so I downgraded to 1.40 and the sound become back good
I have HardSPLv7 installed and I am on orange IL Israel
I used for downgrade CustomRUU and had no problems on the downgrade prosses
now i am using the last version of LVWS with radio 1.40 and it is working ok
hope this info help you
another remark :
try to install first the radion and on top of it os and not first os and then radio , i notice in a change of battery life in those 2 variants
Were you driving too fast for the phone to keep up with the radio transmitters passing by????
I'm also using LVSW 19-05 and Radio 1.41 but not having any significant issues unless a program runs at 100%, then the person trying to call me hangs up before the phone starts ringing!
Ciao Oggy.
It's not the LVSW ROM.....! It's the radio 1.41 And this radio was tuned for Cingular. I am on Cingular and i personally think that 1.40 is much much better. Read up on the two radio topics for more info on the two. So the bottom line is it's NOT LVSW at fault here. it's the 1.41 radio...

Yeah, that's what I thought, but wasn't 100% sure either. I'm going to downgrade to 1.40 tonight and will observe any results...
Thanks to all for your inputs.
to be fair I think there is a problem with t-mobile uk at the moment with handovers, let me explain.......
I have a active data connection.........
phone is on 3G, everything fine
phone switches to 2G, data connection is still active, no problems
phone switches to 3G, data connection is broken and the radio reboots (scrolling dots ect.)
I can (and have) replicated this with EVERY radio from 1.27 to 1.41 (and I do mean EVERY radio)
I've also tried EVERY WM6 rom out there all do the same.
so I can only think its T-mobile playing up, its just strange that everything worked fine with WM5 as I remember (and no Im not flashing back to find out!)
Hi, I'm in the Netherlands. Just tested the 1.40 because 1.41 disconnected all the time. So far so good (5 calls later..). Downgrade went fine with the customRUU. Regards Bas

Interesting - it might be worth to check, but here in London it's actually hard to find a place where phone would switch itself 3G->2G. But anyway, I had problems not only on T-Mobile UK network, as I stated in first post, so I rather think it's Radio ROM related problem, more than network.
Sorry...I've been to positive. Right now only incoming calls come through. Outgoing is still a disaster. I'll downgrade to 1.38. Ill let you know if this works..
Currently in Thailand on DTAC, an EDGE network (all their GSM networks here have EDGE).
Radio 1.40: Voice calls were okay, didn't seem to have any problems, until I tried using data (gprs/edge). The data connection was completely unstable and unusable. Downgraded to radio 1.38...
Radio 1.38: Everything okay so far, EDGE data and voice calls.
Same boat!
Yup, same thing here with T-Mobile and the 3G/2G thingy.
Though I must admit 1.40 is pretty sucky anyway, 1.41 was worse.
Considering going back to 1.38, I've forgotten what it came with 1.2x or something, which, for its sins was pretty OK.
Oi! T-Mobile!! Sort it out before I head back to Orange!!!!
Actually, forget that rant, no point taking two steps backwards and starting to pay per MB again!!! LMAO

One more thing, which just came to my mind - in the original T-Mobile's MDA Vario II Extended ROM there is a file called P_rilgsm_patch.CAB, which could be related to Radio. Maybe this is a key for these problems? I guess this patch is network-specific - well, I believe this patch is there for a reason...
Btw, I've just downgraded to 1.40...
Error message flashing Radio 1.40.30
Hope someone can help me with this. I'm encountering an error message when trying to flash to radio 1.40.30. I have Custel 2.5 installed on a JasJam with Radio 1.41 currently.
When I run the update RUU program and click the AutoDetect button, I get a message that says "Error, Unknown version! You should pick SSPL".
I have HardSPL7 installed, so my question is, is it safe to force SSPL? Is that what it is asking me to do?
Thanks.
Nevermind, I think I found the answer finally - it only took many days:
1. Select "2.10 new..."
2. Tick "Is it HARD Spl?"
And then run the update as per normal.

OK, but how to actually copy/send rilgsm.dll file?? Each time I have 'File cannot be copied' message, or such like... :-o
Btw, what happened, when you applied rilgsm patch?
i now get a "E" icon instead of "3G" and the radio seems slower handing over from 3G to 2G and back (thank god my stairs are 2G only!) I've sent you a PM on how to copy that file.
I'm having problems with connections using Web'n'Walk and want to try changing the radio in my XDA Exec to a T-Mobile issue in the hope that it will improve performance.
Despite much searching I can only find these radios as part of self-extracting ROM updates which won't work on my Exec due to country error.
Can any anyone point me to these radio ROM images or suggest a radio version that works really well with Web'n'Walk.
Cheers
I am using radio 1.15 with no problems with T-Mobile WnW...I am also in the same sort of area..
here is the Radio v1.10 for you:

There is something odd about UK T-Mobile and Radios other than 1.10. I have upgraded to various WM6 ROMs and, indeed, the latest WM5 ones. Initially, they work well but, after about 24 hrs, the phone keeps losing a signal, GPRS stops working and send/receive hangs. Soft resets work initially, then even that doesn't fix it. My only solution is to revert to the standard T-Mobile Universal WM5 ROM. The common element is Radio 1.50.
I have read posts saying that others have had no problems with 1.50 but, for me, in the Oxford area, only 1.10 works.
Thanks for sourcing it, I can now try wm6 with Radio 1.10.
Have found and uploaded to my folder 15 different radios.
Hopfully it makes it easyer for others to find things they want...
The goal of this thread is to find out which radio is best for your region and provider.
We will have to look at the following
-Reception strenght for both gsm and 3g.
-Speed of GPS lock
-Batterylife
I have added a poll, the poll will be continent based, but you can post your exact country and provider in your commentry post.
if we can get enough information or see a red line that makes things easyer we could add a wiki page with recomended radios for each country or provider
yeayyy second...
from qatar .. no probs with radio 150xxxx
signals ..atleat get a bar where 1.46 didnt get any
gps.. maybe bit faster lock..
improved.. now dont need to charger 2 days ( depends on usage)
In New Zealand (on Vodafone NZ), and strangely with the Dopod ANZ WM6 ROM and 1.46.30.11 radio incoming calls don't work, I can dial out just fine and all other radio functions (BT, WIFI, GPS) work perfectly. Just nobody can call me - they get a disconnected signal which is very strange! Tried fixing the phone to only GSM or only 3G, neither of which helped.
I would have thought that since the Dopod ANZ ROM was released for the ANZ region the 1.46.30.11 radio that came with it would work nere.
Went back to the 1.38 radio ROM which fixed the problem. Haven't yet tried 1.41 or 1.50 to see if they fix the problem.
In North America using 1.46.00. It works as well as 1.38 did, however GPS fix is twice as fast now.
Rogers Canada
-------------------
1.50.08.111
1.46.xxxx
Sometimes calls are dropped after 1 ring and sent straight to voicemail. Sometimes phone doesn't even ring and goes straight to voicemail. GPS reception is great. Haven't noticed any difference in call quality with either of these radios.
1.38.00.11
Seems to be most stable for me. Doesn't not have the same issues as the newer radios, however GPS reception isn't as good.
T-Mobile USA.These ones work fine.
1.35.00.11
1.38.00.11
1.41.00.11
1.46.00.11
1.46.30.11
This version:1.50.08.11
Sends my calls straight to voicemail and sometimes the phone only rings once.
Up till now it would seem that 1.50.08.111 is the best version to choose by default, and only if you have problem then you should downgrade to 1.46.xxxx
ACCORDING TO MY OPINION:
each official os require different drivers and/or dll to access to radio rom and one of the most important is rilgsm.dll and related exes.
More or less, we actually have 3 kinds of cooked rom, derived from official anz, sea and new anz with different radio roms. Each one should use the radio rom shipped with its own os, but as to seem that all the people here go always to the latest revision number without thinking to the drivers they are using.
The latest radio 1.50 has been shipped by a local provider probably with special setting, but the people seem to go to this version just becouse it's the latest revision. Why don't you trust what your rom cookers are suggesting about radio roms?
For example, it seem that the most part of the people are using axel roms on its devices, and axel includes Radio v1.46.00.11 to its own rom. But according to this poll, most part of the people are using 1.50 radio.
Please think about this...
Ciao

Yeah, I have the same problem with my P3600. I have upgraded to radio rom 1.46 and people can not call me anymore. I am downgrading to 1.38 now. I have put wm5 back but the radio rom didn't change. it is still 1.46.
and?
And South America? it doesnt exist?
There can only be 10 options, so south america and everything else not mentioned goes under the other option
Tried 1.38.00.11 .. that comes with mun rom...
it was working perfectly ...
then unfortunately i upgraded to 1.46.30.11 ...
which sucks big time ... voice is bad ... reception is bad .. and gps is the same ...
didn't try other roms ...
on my way to reinstall 1.38
I for one never noticed any difference they all perform the same way, its only a version number that changes in my device
What about Portugal?
Im still using the olg 1.46 one...

Yeah simply becuase I am tired of moving between different versions just trying to improve the GPS first fix as people claim the fix is faster with every new radio rom, and I got sick of it and that was the last version I used....
I would have had the same question coming to me with any number I had put in my signature....ha
thanks for that answer
Can we pin this and other Polls?
I am using "Test.build.gps.32.75.7020" Its was made for specific network provider. With standard radio rom my phone was missing calls and sms messages.
Hello guys!
I flashed 1.5xxx radio to my Trini, and my IMEI has changed!!!Do you have any idea, how to change it back? My IMEI is checked every time, I leave the factory, I can not leave it like this
