sorry for bumping but i really can use some help here
[General Questions and Answers] nikosssb:
It is most probably a radio issue. What radio version are you using? And did you check if the corresponding RIL are flashed correctly?

What about wifi reception? Is it causing you trouble too?
[General Questions and Answers] BshadoW1:
wifi working great

im using the recommended radio which is suggested in the arhd topic.

is there something i can do to try and make this better?
[General Questions and Answers] nikosssb:
The recommended radio is not always suitable for everyone. It depends on many factors like geographic location, network provider... I would suggest that you flash the radio that you were using before arhd and give it a try.
[General Questions and Answers] BshadoW1:
i got no clue which radio i had...

can you tell me what i need to look and where?
[General Questions and Answers] nednednerb:
You must determine the radio that went with your old ROM (I assume stock). So look on the stock ROM index sticky in the development forum for your phone. Find out with stock RUU you would have (likely region/carrier related), and flash the radio that is meant for it.

Both ways. Go to the following link, if you were on gb the get the latest radio and ril and flash both of them and give it a try. Same thing if you were running ics, flash latest radio with ril and try.

so tell me what to do exactly and why u think it should help

i dont want to mess my phone and make it not work suddenly
[General Questions and Answers] nikosssb:
Sine you are experiencing bad signal and it didnt happen before flashing arhd then its probably a radio issue. So im just suggesting you flash a different radio since you dont know which one you had before. I would try the latest radio for gb and then see if that works. But flashing a radio without corresponding ril doesnt help.
[General Questions and Answers] BshadoW1:
so can you help me through what to do?
[General Questions and Answers] BshadoW1:
anyone else think he can help?
[General Questions and Answers] nikosssb:
I told you what you need to do. Go into the link i told u and get the latest radio and matching RIL. Radios are tricky so you need to try them for a week or so before switching to a new one. So try them.. from newest to oldest until you find a good balance between battery and signal strength. If you don't know how to flash a radio let me know or look into the forums it's easy to do. RILs are flashed normally like any other rom or patch.. launch into recovery and install from sd card. But do that after flashing the radio.

Hope that helps for now. If you can't find proper help for flashing the radio let me know.

I have 8.9 Wifi Tab with flashed stock firmware (3.2).

I live in the UK and want to be able to use UK only apps such as BBC iPlayer and ITV Player etc..

They don't show up when searching for them in the market app but when i find them online using google it says they are incompatiable with my device, although the requirements are Adobe Air(installed) and HC 2.2+ which I obviously meet.. the only thing I can think it is is the region of the firmware on my device? It was a US device originally and the stock firmware I used also shows as US region.. is this something I can just change and reflash or what?

thanks,

Michael

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g12321:
Hi, I tried to root my friends htc wildfire but when I managed to get into recovery it showed something like this...

I initially managed to install the update while connecting the mobile to my laptop and upgrading the drivers on device manager.

but when I tried to go into recovery the option to install from sd card was missing.

I googled a lot but failed to find a proper way to root + change the rom. Did changing the drivers while connecting the phone to my laptop actually root the phone?

I successfully rooted my wildfire before but her wildfire was bought in China and seems to have a lot of apps missing such as market and so on + lately whatsapp wont install.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lispa:
That appened to me too.

because I installed a 2.2.1 froyo rom, and due to that, i was unable to reinstall newers rom versions. It kept the S-OFF, but kind off "broken". The problem was solved, using this tutorial! hope it will help U.

it was all about the formatation of the sd card in FAT32. I though format in the Windows XP ment FAT32, but it was't.

Once the new file is installed and the phone is s-off, how do I re-root the phone?
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alienyd:
Exactly! Also my question! They want you to upgrade your Bootloader which will disable you from rooting (all methods I've heard of require old versions Bootloader).

Any solution before we dive into this WONDERFUL UNLOCKED REALM?
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger4740:
Hi, just signed up to HTC dev to see what's going on with bootloader unlock, I started the procedure but told me it wants to delete everything on my phone, bugger that.

This is HTC official root method, it says you can load custom rom's and change the recovery but it is still s-on to protect the radio and sim lock (network).

Now if u are not already rooted then its gonna make it hard, esspecialy to backup, however we still have revolutionary temp root to backup with titanium.

For those already rooted, I'm not sure if there is any advantage, except you can flash custom recovery, we have fakeflash so not much point IMO.

Oh, just realised it gives unrestricted access to /system folder so that might make it worth while after all..

Do we have to go back to stock before running this or can it be run with a custom ROM installed?
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger4740:
Good question. I suspect it might only work with unrooted legends.

If that is the case its gonna be a big hassle, but not impossible.
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cristian_berme:
wow wow wow WOOOW!!! I didn't expected this!!!!! I will unlock my bootloader and install the clockwork recovery ASAP!

For rooted legend you can make a nandroid, install the RUU, install a recovery (the .img recovery from the rom manager site) and restore the nandroid :)
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smilingguy07:
Do you plan on doing it on yours?

I noticed that there is also a wifi security update out for the legend too,

The bootloader unlock is 3.15.405.5, and the wifi fix is 3.15.405.6, so I guess it has to be in that order or the bootloader unlock wont run.

[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smilingguy07:
Stevenstrike,

Did you install that update on top of your cm custom rom?

Any problems at all?
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevenstrike:
No

Just find a HTC stock rom for your legend, then update the rom via OTA if needed, then try to apply the hboot update, after that use the htcsupertoolv3 to gain perm root, and if you want, flash cwm fastboot to access cwm as recovery.
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smilingguy07:

[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger4740:
When you say flash ruu are you talking about the stock ruu? Then flash hboot (ruu)..

Why does this still need unlocked? The whole reason HTC put out the unlocked bootloader is so we can load custom rom's and flash custom recovery directly after flashing hboot 1.02
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mph_aut:
the first page of the htcdev instructions say the hboot unlock ruu can only be applied on top of the latest stock roms.

therefore if you are on a custom rom, you'll have to back it up with nandroid first, then install one of the htc stock ruu they've specified in their instructions; on top of that you then can flash the hboot ruu & follow the steps to unlock the bootloader...

I was on an unrooted device but my firmware did not match anyway, hence I went to shipped-roms and looked for a LEGEND Stock ROM that could work.

I used the Asia WWE (Second last) since that was the only one which looked like it matched with the list of firmwares listed on the HTCDev website. After flashing that stock RUU, I downloaded the Asia WWE HBOOT 1.02 RUU from the HTCDev website and flashed that. Voila.

Then obviously, I got SuperTools v3 from here: http://barbey.me/?page_id=202

and perm-rooted it.

The 3.15.405.6 update is necessary to apply the hboot 1.02 update. The Rom from HTC and Shipped Roms is the .405.3 update and it wouldn't update to the .6 (no updates available).
