[Q] HD2 T8585 in Australia on Telstra - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all.
I'm using Froyo Stone Sense V3.2 on OzDroid with RADIO 2.15.50.14 on a UK 02 T8585. Could anyone recommend a good radio to work with Telstra and the T8585?
Froyo Stone Sense V3.2 does boot with RADIO 2.07.51.22_2 from the Orginal Telstra ROM.
Many thanks
Terence

That combo works pretty well for me in US on AT&T. My only issue is a second or two delay in Bluetooth audio connect when receiving a call.

Thanks, it appears to be a good combo... the battery at leasts last a day....

Best Radio for the UK in general

Hi guys,
Just came back to the UK from HK and the reception on my Hermes is pretty bad.
I was using 1.47.30.10 with Smartone Vodaphone in Hong Kong and it was brillient.
However, now back in the UK, with 3, my reception is really bad, sometimes even no recpetion. I am in Birmingham.
I also need to flash my girlfriends phone which is on O2.
Really would appriciate some advice from members here.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Jason
52 views and no one can be bothered to help out?
am on orange uk using latest official radio from orange - 1.38.
Not much use to you I guess though. I think T mobile users have a later one as the best for them.
Probably best advice is to try several and see what's best for you as the roadio rom's can be specicfic to the operators.
I used 1.50.00.00 with good results on both O2 and Vodafone networks.
Heard 1.51 was bad. Not tried the most recent one 1.54 (I think).
k-c
thanks for the replies guys.
will try a few out and report back on 3UK best.
on t-mob on hertfordshire, the besy tom for me was 1.40. but just giving 1.54 a test now...
not sure thta helps as we are so far apart
Let me us know how you get on with the 1.54's the 07 has been the best one I've used and I've tried most of the good ones. 1.27, 1.38, 1.48. 1.50
Well im in Wolverhampton. Travelling around the west midlands and stafford areas.
Im on T-mobile and using radio version 1.43 with pretty good constant reception.
1.50.00 was probably the best, and I spend a lot of time in the West Midlands on Vodafone with 3G switched off.
hope no one minds me resurrecting this old thread, has anyone got recent opinions on this?
especially for vodafone?

Vodafone 1605 - Updated to WM6 - Now no signal indoors?

I've just upgraded my Vodafone 1605 to WM6 successfully, and updated my radio version. The problem I'm faced with now is that my device hunts for signal whenever I'm indoors and simply wont find one until I go outside.
Does anybody have any suggestions or fixes for this? I've tried various radio versions and I'm currently on 1.43.00.00 with the same issues.
Phone details:
ROM version - 3.54.255.3
Radio Version - 1.43.00.00
HERM200
IPL-1.04
HERM200
SPL-2.10.Olipro
Thanks in advance.
This is almost certainly the Radio Upgrade - newer doesn't always mean better because they are often released optimised to a specific carrier.
Try 1.48 or 1.38 (I find 1.38 works well in most parts of the world).
Could you please link to either one of those upgrades?
I'm literally tearing my hair out here and can't find them - Thanks for your understanding.
*EDIT*
Found this wonderful website....I guess it's just trial and error now!
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
Okay, I've just updated to radio version 1.48 and I'm still getting no signal....
Any ideas guys? I'm getting ready to chuck this phone against a wall...
I had really bad reception until I used 1.54.07.00 radio from ATT rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334697
I've already tried that ROM and still the same thing...
I'm wondering if it's a problem with this windows install....?
Okay, another update on this...I've tried 1.54.07.00 radio from ATT again (so that's my current ROM) and I'm still getting no signal.
When the SIM is in my old Sony Ericsson it works fine...so it's definately not network coverage issues.
So far the ROMS i've tried are:
1.38
1.43
1.48
1.54
None of them have meant I get coverage in this room, where I used to be able to get it no problem before with my old Hermes. (This one was sent as an exchange from Vodafone due to my last one having screen issues).
Plllleeaaassseee help
Yet another update.
I've just done the following in an attempt to remedy the situation:
Unlocked the phone to take and SIM.
Flashed the Radio to 1.48 ROM.
Flashed the phone to Windows mobile 6 HTC release.
Still...no signal.
Is this now a hardware issue?
Is your SIM card old? There are some reports of some older cards not working too well when using the 3G, HEDGE or EDGE networks.
Try setting your phone to GSM only just to test this - otherwise I'm at a loss.
hmm same here affter a wm6 upgrade.
Noticed that my orange simcard does get reception indoors though!!
outdoors my vodafone gets reception (not always, but it does get gsm gprs connection) but indoors my vodafone prepaid card gets no reception at all..
Downgraded to the wm5 rom and 1.27 radio but still this problem stays.
On the choice of network providers i dont see the dutch vodafone activated? (unticked) it does find and see it but wont get on it.
After schaps 4.01 rom i noticed that with -g3 connection always on- vodafone did get connection but only on 3g (umts), as soon as i click on gsm only instead of automatic all signal strength is gone again.
I am now on the orginal wm5 rom and radio 1.27 but still no vodafone? is there blacklisting of any sorts by the poviders? My vodafone simcard is brandnew!
Please help
hmm
Seems it is a blocked imei. been reading a bit on this forum and something similar happened to another member..
Vodafone works for a while but then it crashes and you wont get contact with kpn vodafone tmobile anymore. only orange seems to work ok.
Must be a nicked phone. weird.. almost 100% sure that the phone isnt nicked.
Where can i check if an imei is reported stolen?
UPDATE: strangly enuff the tytn now works again with my vodafone sim, but only on 3G? .. also i checked and the phone workes great on orange and t-mobile, kpn it does not recognize.. but why did it start to work again on vodafone?

Can Cingular Radio work on HTC Rom?

Hi all,
I'd like to know that the Cingular' radio (as 1.02.25.31) works well on HTC rom or not? Because based on my experience with the Kaiser (WM 6.0 only), ATT radios could not work on HTC rom (no sound).
And does 1.02.25.31 support 3G?
Thank you!
I can answer myself 'Yes!"
I need time to compare those radios.
I am running the Cingular Radio ROM in combination with the DCS ROM, and it works just fine. No problems with it. Seems to give me slightly better reception.
I'm using it in Gainesville, FL and I think the reception is better than 1.02.25.19

Radio Rom

Hi there
Is anyone has a good radio rom for the Iolite
I just got the phone from o2 uk with radio version of 0.41.30.12
Thanks
hmm wont your radio rom be working well since it is from your operator i presume??
if it is then you shouldn't bother changing to another radio rom?
Iolite has no new Radio. Wait for new rom.
Btw, i have terrible GPS traction. gpsONE very slow, and catch 4-5 sats. At the same time Polaris catch 7-9 sat and intialase much faster.

[Q] Danish user - Recommended radio?

Hello there.
I installed the Artemis 33.1 yesterday, and read about it supported many radios, mine however was not on the list: 2.06.51.07
The ROM works fine though, but I was wondering, should I update radio? Is it any good to do so?
Any danes that could say what radio they're using?
Pros/cons ?
Hey Animefan.
I'm using Radio 2.12.50.02_2 whick is the latest radio I've encountered. It works fine on CallMe, TDC, 3, Telia and Telenor and the quality of the calls and sounds are just perfect. Just now I'm using Elegancia cooked ROM.

How about GPS and 3g / GPRS and such?
Haven't encountered problems there either. HD2 catches satelites fast and 3G connections. I live in a area where 3G is weak, but again - no problems. In fact my HD2 is more stable on 3G than my Desire.
