Hi,
I am with Vodafone New Zealand and it's weird enough that I can't receive any phone calls when I upgraded my radio rom to 1.43 or later.
I have tried 1.43, 1.46, 1.47, 1.48.... they just don't work.
However 1.40 and 1.41 work fine. I have been wanting to go for later versions since I need stronger signal.
I don't think I missed any steps during the radio upgrade process as I was following through the right instruction and I could flash it successfully with 1.40 and 1.41.
Are they anybody having the similar problem? Will there be any fixes or workaround to get the later vesions of radio to work?
I have tried this on the official Dopod WM6 and some Black roms with SPL2.10.
Please help!! Cheers =)
define "don't work"
Sorry about being not very clear. I was trying to say that I cannot not receive any incoming calls. And also the caller cannot hear the outgoing signal tones when ringing my phone The calls are just not coming through...
I may have run into a similar problem...
Using anything higher than 1.43, I wasn't getting all of my incoming calls. It may have to do with calls being denied when I have an active data connection... Either way, 1.47 and 1.48 both seem to present this problem for me.
I encountered that same problem in China mainland,
The solution is to update a new SIM from your operator,
Maybe you will spend a little money on it,
Most of people resolved that problem with this solution,
I will update my SIM at the price of RMB30,
But now I think no need because I am using 1.41,
It works well in China mainland,
Thers is no 3G sinagal in China mainland,
I think if you are in 2G, 2.5G or 2.75G network you can't tell the difference between radio 1.41, 1.43, 1.47 and 1.48.
that's all.

I'm in China now, and just change from my old Nokia 6100 and the old SIM card voltage etc. is not suitable for new devices.
This worked for my HTC P3600i - Thanks so much for the tip.

Out of interest - did this die (ie No GSM) while on Radio 1.54 or AFTER moving from 1.54 to another radio? Sounds suspiciously like sudden NO-GSM radio death syndrome stikes some more phones... see this thread about the problem and this thread about the warning that 1.54.xx radios appear to be a common factor in radio bricks in the UK, Germany and Netherlands that suddenly appear without warning.
Also, people please remember that higher radio versions do not necessarily mean "stronger" signals on your network (they don't magic up signals or make variable coverage better - they just handle the signal you DO have a little differently) and can in some circumstances introduce more issues than they fix. Finding a radio that works well with your network and your everyday location is better than constantly keeping the version numbers high

I believe it means that it is just radio? At least I got UMTS reception as well.
Testing it now, hope it's better than the 1.48 which caused me to lose several calls.
Repository
Please, can someone upload this to some rapidshare - there are many problems with FTP download on proxy in work. Thanks a lot!
waiting feedbacks......
Thanks POF. Flashing it now (85%).
Let you all know how it's working.
Remember all, please post your location and comments on radio 1.50.00.00 to help other outs on the locations.
Thanks.
thanks

Can't receive calls,
China mainland.
Here in the Netherlands this version is working perfect. Get nice HSDPA connection. Wifi is working with WPA security.
All calls come in, only not when HSDPA connection is active. Had this problem also with previous versions 1.47 and earlier.
Hope it's also working fine for you too....
Anyone in Toronto try this yet? Have been having problems with radio's after 1.43 and missed calls with Rogers. Hopefully 1.50 resolves this issue.
I will not be able to test this myself until late today and will post results once done.
Quick question: Anyone know the origin of this release? Did it come from a specific carrier, as most do?
Thanks.

Same thing here in Italy with TIM phone company.
I think that the HDSPA problem is not a radio software fault, if i try to call my Tytn while i am on an HDSPA session, the tone from the phone company is not "free" or "busy", it is the one they use when a number is wrong or the line is absent or broken.
I will check the battery usage too.
Cheers

Silly question, If it is a GSM only upgrade, it wouldnt effect HDSPA?
Hey guys, I'm on the t-mobile network in The Netherlands and o be blunt, my reception sucks. I'm missing a lot of calls and sometime my phone doesn't even want to call the outside world. After pressing the sent butting is just waits, tries to connect and give a 0:00 time and then quits again.
I've tried a few different radio roms, the original that my phone was supplied with (can't remember which one, 1.41 1.48 and 1.50, but none of them seem the fix the problem. Is there anybody out there on the t-mobile network, preferrably in The Netherlands that has a Hermes and decent reception?
Help is very much appreciated
Meer info nodig, welke rom draait erop?
More info Please, bv. Rom?
I'm running latest Sleuth rom (3.1) with radio rom 1.47 and my reception is excellent!
Maybe something in your phone is broken?

Lees I am on the latest HTC WM6 ROM official and Radio 1.50 everything is perfect. Although I had the problems you describe a couple of months ago. It started one day and would not go away and did that inside and around the place I live. I decided to call T-Mobile and gues what they said that there was a problem with one of the Masts in my neghbourhood... They advised me to switch to GSM only for while and it took them about 3-4 weeks to fix the problem. So give them a call and see which masts are in your neughbourhood maybe one of them is on maintanance. And usually they take these kind of calls seriously. By me I even got a follow up call that they were still bussy fixing it. (het was een gedoe dat een mast weg moest want de contract met de gebouw eigenaar verlopen was dus ze zochten een nieuwe plek, kan gebeuren).
Well, I've tried 1.47 and I get a bad reception and missed calls as well. I think I have to do a complete reflash (OS as well) and then see what happens.
I'm from Belgium and I am often in the Netherlands for business. No problems whatsoever with Black Majik and radio 1.50.00.00. No missed calls and good reception.
Read my signature.
I've tried all possible combinations. Info below is probably the fastest an most reliable combination.
Only I have KPN as provider......

Yeah i did, but they didn't know of any issues. I've also have a HTC Wizard and that work without any pronlems. My HTC Hermes problems or on different locations as well, so I think it's a problem with my phone.
I'll flash to the new Black ROM as soon as it's out and then see what happens
I am running Schaps 3.54B and Radio 1.50.00.00. and it's running perfectly.
Good reception and good battery life.
This is on a T-Mobile MDA Vario II
I am back to the 1.47 Radio rom, ( hier in Utrecht heb ik net 1 streepje meer umts ontvangst, vergeleken met de 1.50 die ik had )
For me is 1.47 better than the 1.50
I am on Tmob Netherlands. Never had a problem with the reception. I have tried several radios. Right now using 1.50. To be frank, cant tell the difference between this and the previous ones.

Great~~~!!!
First impressions are very good. Signal strength similar or better than 1.50 here around the house and my HSDPA data connection is noticeably faster... I post battery usage later after a day´s use...
Thx for the upload...will try it later, do you know sth about the BL of this Radio ROM?:..
Regards,
Primoz
Thx jcespi2005, it's good
Thanks, I will try this later today, already downloaded.
I can confirm this version WORKS with ROGERS in Toronto and from reading on another thread, seems OK with FIDO as well.
No missed calls, rings on first ring (unlike 1.46.00.00, 1.47.00.00, 1.48.00.00 and 1.50.00.00).
It seems that the versions that work for ROGERS all end in an .10 rather than the .00 of the ones listed above.
This radio is a keeper for me.
T-MOBILE USA - Looking good
On preliminary observation, good signal and one of the faster responses to incoming calls since the 1.41 radio.
More on battery life and cell switching in a day or two.

And works with T-Mobile NL also..No problems yet..
Update: Works great when you call or sms & receive, BUT CANT USE UMTS, CANT INTERNET.
So Dutch folks, keep it by radio 1.50
It's so strange when I upgrde the this radio.
I can feel that the upgrade speed is appearing slow than anyother former version.
Some fans can't load hermes after upgrade and some can't see the new radio version in "device information". So... is anybody here has the same problem?And who can tell what is going wrong.
The best for now
Radio 1.51 it's a must have.
No more ring delay, at last the TyTN ring starts between the first and the second caller line tone..., like a real phone
HSDPA working very well

Works fine for me.
I have tested using GPRS only, and 3G with and without HSDPA, and works every time. Can sync with my exchange server using push mail, and navigate with Internet Explorer in all situations.
Seems a little better coverage than 1.50 for me, here with Orange Spain.

Mischien stom vraagje maar wat zijn precies de .raw bestanden? is het een exacte kopie van alle bestanded van de t-mobile vario IV? en hoe zet / install ik ze Sry alst beetje noobish quistions zijn ben vrij nieuw met roms etc.
Maybe a stupid quistion but what are the .raw files exactly? is it an exact copy of The files originally from the t-mobile vario IV? and how do i install them Sry if a bit noobish quistion but im fairly new to roms etc.

Even if it had a different radio version to 1.02.25.19 it might not fix the poor reception issue since this mostly seems to be occurring on T-Mobile UK and this is the Dutch T-Mobile Rom!
If it makes you feel any better, part of the reason I changed to O2 was because of the poor signal on T-Mobile (The other part was that O2 were cheaper for Pay Monthly sim only) but my 3G signal is no better on O2, in fact I'd say T-Mobile was better for 3G! O2 has really good GPS reception though, and they have Edge too.
I don't want to turn this thread in to another one discussing how bad the Touch Pro's signal is compared to other devices with the stock radio though, the best thread for discussing this can be found here
any news about an update with fixes for the poor gsm/gps reception? got a dutch vario VI since a couple of days but not happy with the this issues.
