lol what a combination, all your missing is a Verizon holster and an ATT sticker to put on your battery door for that "satisfy everyone" feel.

Titan Radio ROM 2.13.00

What appears to be the vogue 2.13.00 radio packaged for titan has showed up on the xda ftp and seems to be working for titan users. I created this thread to move conversation here.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Titan/Radio_Roms/titan_2.13_CDMA.rar
Mods, some conversation begins at post #284 on my kitchen thread if you want to move here.
It also would appear they posted a 1.59 and another 1.47 radio rar file. As to my knowledge the 1.47 was the lastest radio put out by HTC for the Titan.
How about a direct link to the new radio?

Although some say it working on their Titan, we don't know if this is an actual update for the Titan. I would be very careful and wait to get more information before using this radio.
Using it on my Titan and loving it havent noticed any problems as of yet but will post anything I find.

So it basically sounds like the Sprint Vogue 2.13 radio happens to work (as far as we can tell) on the Titan.
NexVision...you mentioned it seemed to be faster? How about the signal strength?

Well based on the signal bars on the phone I have gone from 1 to 2 bars in my store to a full signal. Does that mean better signal well I have never been one to go by the bars. Will know more tonight when I go to my girls as my phone loses service the second I walk into her house almost convinced she has a jammer to keep me from being pulled away.

Maybe its just me being niave, but I'm not at all surprised by this, the Mogul and the Touch are basically the same hardware as far as the radio is concerned:

If thats the case I wonder if they just called the latest Radio for the Vogue 2.13 which is really the same as the Titan 1.47? You would think that if they were so similar HTC would use the same radio.
Though.. with the Touch not having Wifi, would be interested to know if WiFi still works on the Mogul with this Radio version...
Then if it disables Wifi on the Mogul... can you use a mogul radio on a touch to get Wifi.... hurmm....

if the Touch doesn't have the hardware to do Wi-Fi (as in the radio doesn't support 802.11), then no software can make it happen

I too am interested to know this, thanks.
just tried it, BUT after the "upgrade" my phone only connects to the Internet at 1X. anyone else having this or similar problems??
I just flashed this to my verizon xv6800. So far I can send and recieve calls and WIFI works. So it looks good for verizon at the moment. I'll pair it with my car (2008 honda accord) and see what the bluetooth performance is like. Cross your fingers for me.
My report (loaded on XV6800):
Phone- Sound is excellent. Fixes problem of not being able to answer phone after 1.40 radio install.
Bluetooth- works fine.
Wifi- works fine, although the hard button on the side of the device no longer works. Connect/disconnect through comm manager is fine. May try another hard reset to see if this is fixable. A small sacrifice vs. the increase in EVDO speed.
Evdo speed 868kbps. This is a 33% increase over prior. Getting an extra bar in most locations.
I'm sold.

[UPG][REF]Raphael Radio ROMs (Separate RUU updates)

For those wanting to upgrade only their radio I have uploaded the following RUU packages:
Radio 1.02.25.31 (Cingular)
Radio 1.02.25.19 (HTC)
Radio 1.02.25.11 (HTC)
Radio 1.01.25.16 (Cingular)
Each of the packages already contains an ROM updater which does not erase your phone, so your operating system and settings will remain intact.
Note: You need to have HardSPL before attempting to flash these!
Remember that flashing anything on your phone is always at your own risk.
I have updated my HTC Touch Pro to from Radio 1.02.25.19 to Radio 1.02.25.31 without any problems.
Update 1: Added Cingular Radio 1.01.25.16
THANK YOU now i try in my diamond
Do these radios work also on Diamond ?
They will not flash in your Diamond if your Diamond radio is security locked.
I would advise against flashing Raphael radio's in your Diamond, there is no reason to.
It could work because the chipset is the same, but why take the chance to brick your phone by flashing a radio which is not meant for it.
Do you see any improvement with .31 radio?
Tested it for about an hour or so now.
Can't say I noticed any difference, but I only tested it around the house. Reception around here is generally very bad and it seems to hold up nicely, so its definitely not worse then the previous radio.
GPRS, EDGE and HSPDA seem to work fine.
What about the Cingular one..? Anyone try this in the US to see if the 3g is now present..?
i flashed my touch pro with .31 and it went perfectly. In fact my US AT&T shows G. Not sure if that is the same as 3G but i am also at work where i have bad reception so that may play into it
as with the roms thread, the info is in the wiki pages already.
Although do keep discussion on the radio performance open
3g radio work in North America?
I bought the Diamond in the UK and haven't gotten anything but EDGE. Will any of the RADIO updates address this or is it a hardware problem ?

My TyTN II would show 3G most of the time in the Chicago area. It would switch to H whenever it was downloading. That's the ONLY THING I miss having now that I got the TP...Edge is too terribly slow to do anything but update the weather and my RSS feeds off hours (like at 3AM).

Can canadians use these 3g radio updates? I have a UK phone and i'm only getting EDGE right now
So what was decided about Diamond radios? I know the discussion was started but was there a conclusion? I like the radio on my diamond much better than .19 on the Pro.

Question: Flashing radios on AT&T Fuze

I've looked through countless posts and on the wiki and have yet to find the answer to this question. If it has been answered and I missed it, I'm sorry... I'll look harder next time.
I just purchased a Fuze from a good friend of mine who works in an AT&T corporate store. Since this version supports the US 850mhz 3G band, I need to know if I will loose that support or possibly brick my phone by flashing a radio from a version of the Raphael that does not support this band.
Thanks again for the help.

Verizon and sprint run CDMA and EVDO, and ATT runs GSM(edge) and UMTS, I'm not really such you can just re-flash the radios to swap networks, I maybe wrong but I would like to know also. Anybody?

no no no ... you can't swap gsm radio rom to a cdma phone ... it won't work and you might end up bricking your phone.
i believe what the op is asking if he will loose us 3g ability if he flashes a european 3g radio rom that doesn't support the att 3g band. And imo i think yes you will loose 3g by doing that. If this was avoidable than everyone who bought a international rapheal could have been using it here in states with att/tmobile 3g...

Doesn't Olipro's Raphael Unlocker do just that? Are you saying that you just haven't done this yet or that this program needs to be updated for the Fuze? Also I noticed the SPL version is 1.95.0000 on my Fuze, not 1.90. Do you think it is safe to flash RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_1_90_3? Happy to test my new Fuze but just need a little reassurance first I'm not likely going to brick this new puppy. Thanks.
Good to see some top Kaiser guys here with the Fuze. Give me comfort in knowing we will have a strong Fuze following.

i believe there are a few people who successfully flashedhe Fuze. I'm in the process of doing so as well, just flashed Romeos2.
now this question might come off as stupidest you'll ever hear, but please bear with me as this is the first time i'm flashing a rom. do i have to do anything about the radio after flashing the rom? (a better question is: does flashing rom get rid of the radio so that I have to get a new one?)
thanks guys for the help.

Da_G thanks for your help.
Sounds like a great ROM, Im more than willing to try it. My only question is, does this fix the whole issue of when using Fido, it claims Im roaming?
Thanks!
I could be wrong...but I think that might have something to do with your SIM, it might not consider Fido and Rogers network as one (outdated SIM maybe?)
The reason I am saying that is because when I do a network search on my Fuze, it only brings up Rogers Network as the available network and I am in downtown Toronto.
I am unable to test it unfortunately.
Great work! Keep it up
My original (old, first sim card) got destroyed with my Excalibur in a car accident I got into. I have the latest and newwest SIM. I guess the whole thing is because non Fido branded handsets don't know that the Rogers & Fido network are the same, so it raises the flag but thats something software related no?
the Fuze I am using was bought from US (AT&T Branded) and I am using it with Rogers SIM...I never noticed that issue...
Can you post a few Screen shoot of this?
I'm feeling that I can request on this ROM
Let's all put our effort together and make a nice Canadian ROM.
Im not much of a cook though if u need any beta testing, im ur man. let me know and keep up the good work.
ps. Anyone wanna try releasing a rom with the BELL UI or a cab for it at least? it seems real nice.

If you have rogers then you can not see fido (no in-canada roaming, you have 97-98% of Canada's populated area as non-roaming), ld charges are still applicable
If you have Fido, I think once you are out of metropolitan areas, you are technically roaming, unless you have the extended network soc on your account (contact customer care to find out more) which will stop roaming, but not the potential long distance charges.
I know for sure about rogers, but I gave up my fido sim 1.5 years ago, so things may have changed. It used to cost about $5.
Thanks buddy. I am ordering a fuze this week and I cannot wait to flash your rom.
Looking forward to it.

Thanks. Ordered the phone today. I will be back soon.
sounds like a good idea, im gonna flash in a minute and see how it goes, will let you know if i find anything funny.
Ive been having problems trying to web browse on Rogers, not sure if its the ROM on it now or not, but i cant seem to find a fix. Hopefully a new flash will fix it.
This is by far the best rom ive used so far especially since it fixed the sms time stamp issue on rogers. The rom is stable and for some reason give me a lot better battery life with the same radio compared to other roms. base rom and functionality seems excellent for now. i believe a newer OS is out which would be a next step. Also, the color icons for the signal strength, 3G/H/E icons, etc. from the RRE HTC Fuze ROM Ver 4.5 Special Edition rom looks good and that would be good if it could be cooked into the next rom. jus suggestions to improve the visual aspects. keep up the good work.

Thanks, I will definately keep working on it as I get comfortable with things to include in the ROM to make sure they are stable, that will be my goal.
Also just a note: I have tried almost all other famous radios and have found this one to give a better voice quality (sounds less hollow, using other radios I was able to hear a bit of myself as well, 25.32 specifically)
First time the GPS fix may take a very long time but afterwards, it almost connects right away using TomTom, I think some people just give up the first time due to not good visibility to the sky etc. and consider the radio to be not good for GPS, that has not been the issue for me in and around Toronto using this ROM and the radio even through I do admit that the GPS signal is not that strong.
This is a very good mod for at&t fuze canadian user. Thanks and looking forward to updates.
A little suggestion: the version of rom is a little bit old. Why not try to cook a newer one? I think 1.95 is also a stable version.

In raphael family, only at&t fuze is a device can work on US 3G band(850MHz), canada as well. You chose 25.19 seems like a HTC retail version radio which does not support US 3G. I'm not sure cuz I never tried 25.19. Can you acces rogers 3G network?
And 25.32 seems have a stronger GPS signal.

You are welcome to try different radios as you wish, i never had issues with the one included that came with shipped rom, and yes I am on 3G Rogers without issues, if you go into the Phone settings, and look into the drop down menu that lets you select the GSM/UMTS band manually....you will see 850 there.
New Rom should be up soon

[Q] Radio issues, no 4G

My thunderbolt started off with das bamf 1.7 and I flashed the Ginger Alpha radio. It worked great for 4-5 days then I left my home area where I normally have 4G. When I got back no 4G i even checked my buddies phone and it has*4G*right next to mine.
I already tried flashing a*stock RUU and trying a bunch of different MR1 radios. It can connect to 3G but will drop the connection a lot no matter what radio I flash. And no 4G at all.
Thanks in advance for any help
I am having the same issues with mr2 and the new ota radio. You don't happen to be on metro detroit are you? This has been going on for days now. I may have to flash the stock locked rom and return phone if out doesn't improve soon.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
ive been loosing 4g as well here in west michigan over the weekend with the new OTA. ill see how the phone acts at work today.
I am actually have the opposite problem. I can lock into 4g fine, but I can not get a 3g signal. This is with the radio from the last ota
sent from my bolt
O good im not alone. Bowtie26 I had to reset to factory again and then let the OTA go through with S-on but I still cannot connect to 4G. So I dont think setting it back to factory settings helps. Im in Portland, OR.

maybe your sim card is on the fritz. I'd try to get another one.
Yeah I guess I never thought of that, do you think that my phone would still display the SIM ID if the card was bad though?

it could. Sim cards are notoriously unreliable, and can partially function. If you have gone back to stock already, wouldn't hurt to visit a verizon store and if not and you have a buddy with a thunderbolt, you could swap sims and see if that works.
Yeah Ill do that and report back. Thanks good idea
Alright definitely not the SIM card. Tried it for a day and still no 4G.
I lost 4g today as well in NYC. as did three of my coworkers with thunderbolts.
do you have any idea what radio your co-workers were using?

I'm on MR2 official. Both of them are on MR1. i'm on cm7, another is on cm7, one is on stock MR1 OTA (rooted).
weird. This problem doesnt seem to specific. did you ever flash the Ginger Alpha radio?
Flashed the OTA (.627) yesterday and it was worse for me than the MR2.5 leak. Went back to the MR2 leak, everything is fine. In St. Louis - 4g pretty much everywhere. With the .627 the phone locked on 3g most of the time. Didn't swap for a new sim though - with MR2 stable for now.
