Hi

You have to flash your phone with the origional spl which should be available on this forum. No, your radio won't dissapear if you hard reset. Its on there untill you flash another one.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] idonxda:
Thanks a lot you guys are simply God !.

one more thing Do I need to re-install HSPL if I want to rollback my radio upgraded in above given steps.Because I have remove the HSPL after radio upgrade.

KS
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] huwwatkins:
Hi

If you reinstall the origional spl and then want to change your radio you will then need to reinstall the hardspl before flashing the new radio.

has anyone been able to create a radio to be used with Tmobile's 3G network that is being implemented in the United States, Tmobile is using the 1700band for upload and the 2100 band for download, any help would be appreciated
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jomo25:
Again, no one is creating these radio ROMs. They are extracting them from devices (or devices to be). Since no version of the Diamond works with TMo's 1700, and none is planned at this time, I wouldn't hold my breath for it if I were you.

.06

Be careful, flashing .06 radio will erase all your data's.

Just had the bad experience....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] geistteufel:
did you do a hard spl before ? or just directly flash with .06 ???

Normally flashing with only radio rom don't erase anythink
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] salada2k:
No it shouldn't.

But many people who know what they are talking about have recommended that you should hard reset even after flashing just a radio update...

Hullu Guys,

Please can you let me know if i upgrade my radio to .05, will I still be able to use 3g for browsing.I am on T-mobile Uk network ?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] asifrf:
What about T-Mobile USA
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] huwwatkins:
It seems tmobile usa 3g uses 2100mhz and 1700mhz. This phone will defanatley do 2100mhz and on my phone I can select utms 1700mhz so I think it would be ok.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jomo25:
Umm, I wouldn't bet on that. It's very unlikely it supports 1700 anything. Just cuz you can select it doesn't mean it will work.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] huwwatkins:
Fair enough, admitedly its was just guess work. 1700 is a bit of an odd frequency for umts.

Compact IV compatibility

Hi all i am new to all this and i ahve been trying for a good three days now to figure out which version to use etc

I have a T-Mobile UK branded MDA Compact IV and would like make it faster, as it seems to lag feverishly! Also when i play video files they seem to have a jittering as if it is struggling to read it from the memory! I see that the ROM versions on here would make the device much faster, however, if say i wanted the Windows Live tools, do i then just install the CABs from other posts that i have seen?

Any help much appreciated
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] huwwatkins:
Hi

I think your looking for complete roms not just radio roms which is what this thread is about. I would suggest you use the wwe 1.93 ones in this forum. If any of the roms you use are missing any program you want you can indeed install them from the cab files.

I have a diamond in the US working just fine. I have radio 1.25.00.05 on it and it works without issue with my service provider. If you wanted to use it on AT&T while here, I guess you would need to be sure that the radio you have flashed is a quad-band radio, as AT&T uses the 850 band.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] SecureGSM:
as per auction decription:

HSDPA 2100 / 900 for Europe/Asia

HSDPA 850 / 1900 for Americas

if this is all true (theres no way to verify though), then Diamond is 3G universal paltform and 3G bands are software presets. NV Items(?)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] stpete111:
Ok, what the hell. This is clearly NOT the US version of the Diamond, but he's claiming 3G data and shows pictures of it. And he's using the .05 radio. I'm confused. I thought it wasn't possible to get 3G data on 850 with a radio, not to mention, many US folks have tried to with the .05 radio to no avail. I'm going to ask the guy what the hardware # is.

EDIT: Hang on a sec... in both pics that show 3G, there are NO signal bars at all. Red flag?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] tnyynt:
There is signal, only that is is weak. There's another icon for no signal.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] kontaxos:
radio 1.00.25.05 = power saver

Just to say that when I got my Diamond on Orange, I was really disappointed with the battery, since I was struggling to get a full second day with a moderate phone use.

The original Rom was 1.37 with the 1.00.25.03 radio. Decided to upgrade to the latest ROM (1.93 HK WWE), that came with the Radio 1.00.25.05...and that made really a massive difference in battery life.

Don't know whether is the combination of the specific ROM with the new radio, but it does make a difference around Newcastle (UK) where I live. Better connection and more power efficient. Highly recommended.

Some added comments: After the ROM 1.93 update all the Orange settings were downloaded automatically (no problem). The TF3D feels faster, but with less fancy animation during the tab transitions. I also lost google maps that I had to download again from the net (...easy, but you have to do it from your mobile)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] m00moo:
ok dudes,

flashed .07 earlier on and have been using for the last 7-8 hours.

Signal seemed to be about the same (i was previously using .05), not much noticable difference that I can see anyway.

Was using GPS for a while, then played Lemonade Inc :D for about a good 45 minutes. Battery life was still at max, when usually it drops very quick for me.

For me it has been pretty good but i cant say the same for everyone?

:)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Blazeitup123:
Fine! flashing now lol :p
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Blazeitup123:
well after a quick glance, .07 is great! GPS fix is fast, full bars, field test confirms 850.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] tnyynt:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] DomFel:
For v1.03.25.18 battery drainage is pretty high, plus it's really unstable, had to reset many times during standard usage.

.07 seems stable, no problems whatsoever compared to .05. Battery life looks equal to .05.

Orange Unbranded Diamond

Flashed to .07 Radio from .05 on ORANGE Diamond [upgraded previously using Olipro unsigned Hard SPL edition and 1.93.405.1 image]

No better 3G signal for me (unlike .05 from .03), BUT switch from 3G to 2G is much faster and GPS fix is faster.

Don't know about battery life yet; prob would be same as .05 (seeing as signal is about the same hence no increased output).

Will post if battery becomes much better or worse !
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:

Make it good for comparisons....

Peoples,

Can I suggest we take a leaf out of the Kaiser Radio forum/thread and post some useful info for Radio comparison.......basics might include:

With ROM XX, upgraded from Radio yy to Radio zz ??

Country/Location/Network providor...??

Battery life: better/worse ??

GPS: faster fix/slower, GPS test app used ??

GPRS/3G/EDGE/HSDPA: reception details...better/worse ??

General: Stable/intermittent crashing/rubbish (avoid perhaps ??)

Anyway, I think radio verios are absolutlely critial in optimising your Diamond, so think about your post and make it a worthwhile contribution....

I'll add my contribution once I've flashed and tested :o

.....great stuff Tom, thanks for firing this one up!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ns73:
With ROM 1.93.405.1, upgraded from Radio .05 to Radio .07 ??

GPRS/3G/EDGE/HSDPA: BETTER SLIGHTLY, MUCH FASTER SWITCH FROM 3g/2g and vice versa

General: Stable, Recommended

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] huwwatkins:

GPRS/3G/EDGE/HSDPA: Seems to hold on to the weak signal in my house a bit better (1800mhz). 3g same, possibly slightly worse.

General: No crashes as of yet.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] tnyynt:
On the contrary, I strongly believe that same Radios have different results for different people according to their region, provider, etc.

On the other hand, since Radio is OS independent (that is, you don't lose your info when upgrading) it is my strongest belief that, because of the enumerated reasons, everyone should test the Radios personally and post only critical information and flaws to avoid situations where "OMG this version is so good" - "Oh s***, how can you say that, it's the worst radio ever".

What I'm saying is that one can have exceptional result with version X in A country, others medium results with same radio in B country and others with same radio have terrible results in C country, or even if it's the same country, it depends on geo location, band used, provider, etc.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
here (in Piedmont, between Swiss & italy) I'm playing with bepe's ROM .98 + radio .07, all works perfect

because I drive a lot :) I can confirm that .07 gps signal is stronger/better compared to .05, gsm/gprs signal reception seems almost the same, UMTS I don't know because I don't use it, anyway I suppose also battery consumption is the same.

Hi everybody,

I'm sorry to post my question here, but I really need your help.

I've got a question. I live in Montréal and I bought a European HTC Touch Diamond. I have a 3G compatible SIM Card, which works great in a HTC TyTN, but I have no 3G with my Diamond. I tried different Radio Roms, but the result is the same every time : GPRS or Edge and that's it.

My provider is Fido (a Rogers company). Does someone have the same issue ?

I called the HTC Support, but they told me that the European Diamond is not compatible with the HSDPA Network in North America. I don't believe them because my European TyTN is working great.

Thamk you for your help.

PS: I'm sorry for my English, it's not very good.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] huwwatkins:
HTC are correct - the diamond doesnt support the correct 3g frequencies for canada
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] stpete111:
HTC isn't lying. Your Euro Tytn works great because the Tytn and Tytn II models all came with quad-band WCDMA radio hardware. The Diamond does not. There are several different hardware versions. The one that is compatible with US HSDPA is coming out next month. HTC is correct when they say that the Euro Diamond will not work with North America 3G data.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] stpete111:
This guy supposedly has.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260272792986

I've been arguing with all day that it's not possible, but he swears up and down that he has it. He's using the .05 radio. Not sure where the pics came from but I told him no one here has been able to get 3G data in the US on a DIAM100, regardless of what the band page shows as available frequencies. He told me to go away. I feel for the person who wins the auction.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] bzhpedro:
Thank you for your fast answer.

I'm really disapointed, I hope they will provide us (North American customers with European Diamond) a hotfix or an update to fix this, because I sold my TyTN and I'd like to use my Diamond with my Internet connection in HSDPA.

But what is amazing is I can see in my Band configuration UMTS (850+1900) + GSM (850+1900) but I just have the Edge Icon. I really do not understand.

Thanks again for your answers.
