Hey people,

I've just moved to the Diamond (from Omnia, vuuu!) and although not new on WM, looks like I'm kind of noob on this stuff :)

So, where do I find the newer radios, SPL's etc? I've read the stickied threads on flashing guides, hardspl etc... (at least a few pages... they are huge!) But they are all written way back and the links are actually a little (!) old.

So, can anybody point me to a good direction, before I start reading all the posts/topics and lose

a) my job

b) my eyes

c) my patience

d) all :)

Thanks in advance.

htc diamond chinese

Okay so I have this Chinese HTC Diamond (exactly like the original, just that it doesnt have WIFI, and some other changes)

It is technically "unlocked" but i tried to use my T-Mobile (USA) Sim Card and it can't connect to the network.

Do you think i could solve this problem by updating my phone to quadband?

I don't really know the problem or the ROM that it uses, how can I look this on the phone? I think it is in "settings" but i haven't checked.

Thank you in advance!

Hi all,

Sorry to ressurect a thread that has been dead for a good month or so.

I'm having a really hard time trying to get the radio upgraded on this. Because of this, I am getting really crappy signals. I can be near the highway and get only 1 or 2 bars.

I have a HTC Touch Diamond, Sprint.

ROM is 2.00.651.7

ROM Date is 03/12/09

Radio is 1.11.00F

I try to do the hardSPL that is form this page:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sb0611:
You have a really old ROM/Radio combination. Just by upgrading to the last official 2.03 ROM the usually much better 1.09 radio will be included. If you feel brave enough you can always experiment with all the cooked ROM's from this great forum, but be sure to know all the important steps!

If you would read the opening post you could see this is possible. In the RUU topic (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2249397&postcount=1) you could see the same in the first post. Radio has nothing to do with the language of your ROM.

Better luck reading next time.

Good work! I've been reading this for a while, flashed the .05 radio and it is very nice. I am getting quite curious though: what do you expect (if anything) to get from the americas diamond, when it is released, which will have a different 3G band specification (850/1900 it seems)?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] futureshock:
definitly a no go for signed Hard-SPL... the Radio.nbhs arent signed...

but if you have the dev hardspl you can flash signed files too... so i prefer to use the dev. hardspl and read all twice befor flashing...

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Phantom1275:
For people who upgraded to 1.00.25.05 radio version: Diamond could find 850mhz GSM frequency, right? But what about 3G HSDPA 850, does it work too?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] adwinp:
3G is working just fine, but I'm in Europe, so I'm on 900/2100
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] oufledingue:
confirmed

with signed : no GO

with unsigned : everything is running fine until the end

this information should be on the first page with the warning about flash an unsigned version of the SPL
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] daren1:
I would love to know as well. How can I tell which exact frequency the phone is using at any given time?

All I can say is that before upgrading, I only received 2 or 3-bars GPRS data signal at my home. After upgrading, 4-bars of EDGE.

Does this mean that my phone has magically attached itself to the 850mhz freq or is it just more sensitive at 1900mhz?

DT

Oh..also...no 3G. Only EDGE so far. I tried enabling HSDPA through the various config's, but no luck so far.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Phantom1275:
In settings -> phone, there's a tab named band, in which you can select GSM and UMTS bands. Usually both are set to auto, but you can manually config bands there, if you want.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] obender:
Sorry for the repetition but will it be possible to have these radio updates as signed? I don't want to reinstall the SPL and I have the signed version now.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] daren1:
Hi, thanks, but I did try changing the settings on the 'Band' tab.:)

The issue I have is that in Canada, both 850mhz and 1900mhz are available for GSM. I've had my Diamond for a month now, and I have been connecting through the 1900 mhz freq with only GPRS and EDGE. I say 1900mhz because we all know that 850mhz is not supported by the phone, and the only other GSM freq in Canada is 1900mhz...so it MUST be connecting via 1900mhz.

Well, immediately after upgrading the radio ROM, my data connection jumped from intermittant GPRS to full EDGE...so either the sensitivity has increased, or it is using 850mhz (or something else?)

Anyhow...I was hoping that I could find a way to enter 'engineering mode' or something similar so I could see which frequency is actually being used (between 850 and 1900). So far, I have not been able to find out how to do this with the Diamond.

DT
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dalamario:
If you go to phone dial, you can write *#*#364#*#* and you will access to a panel with some info from your radio. On my phone is written that I'm using the 850MHz band.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] daren1:
That worked! THANK YOU!!! :D

OK...well, it says:

Band = 3 : 850

I guess I'm on the 850 mhz band. No 3G though...I wonder how I can get that going?

First of all maybe you can try upgrading to a more recent Radio (look here for the RAD_Diamond_1.17.25.09.diamimg.zip), which SPL do you use ?

look here if you don't have already ?

If you did tell us wich spl you use (signed or unsigned)?

HTC Diamond from Rogers Canada

Will HTC Diamond from Rogers Canada work in European GSM and 3G?

Because at HTC written:

For Rogers http://www.htc.com/us/support/touch-...rs/tech-specs/

HSDPA: Dual Band: (850/1900) GSM/GPRS/EDGE: Tri-Band (850/1800/1900)

European:

HSDPA/WCDMA:

Europe/Asia: 900/2100 MHz

Tri-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE:

Europe/Asia: 900/1800/1900 MHz

1) Is it really at Roger's Diamond hardware limitation?

2) or possible to have HSDPA/WCDMA:900/2100 MHz and Tri-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 900/1800/1900 MHz just with installation of Radio v1.00.25.05 Quad Band?

radio vs radio, rom vs rom

Thank you !!!

MediaFire did the trick the other location is too buggy full of popups and ads. Anyway, now that I have this radio, may I please ask this:

The radio can be independently flashed from the other "flashable" components (i.e. ROM, spl, OS version) AS LONG AS the phone has HardSPL,

not

stock SPL, am I right?

In my case I am running the (unsigned) 1.40 by OliNex, so I should be OK to go from what I currently have (1.09.25.23) to a better(?) radio? I've heard that 1.00.25.05 is one of the best (if not the best) when it comes to good wireless performance with resonable/good battery usage, etc.

Also, the phone currently runs on this official update:

RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_2.03.405.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship (apparently it is an unbranded HTC release for England).

Is that OK for use in the USA? or there is something better. I am looking for a minimalistic (custom) ROM not too many bells and whistles, just basic but stable/consistent functionality. Is there something out there you can recommend?

Again, thanks very much for the help! :good:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] HTC0017:
You can flash the radio apart from the ROM.

I suggest you backup your settings first.

I still have a lot of Diamond ROMs from the old days.

It was too long ago to remember which was the best.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] XwpisONOMA:
Thanks to your post, I did! I ended up installing (as mentioned before) the latest official English release: 2.03.405.3 WWE with 1.09.25.23 radio and protocol version 52.51.25.26H.

It looks fine to me and it even solved a problem I had with not being able to stream online videos (YouTube, etc).

Now, I wonder why some claim that an earlier radio 1.00.25.05 is better, is there any legitimacy to that or it depends on how you use the phone?

Anyway, so far so good, will try a custom f/w next.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] daren1:
So...apparently 850mhz is now working on the Diamond for voice (in Toronto, on Rogers). This in itself is a small miracle. Would it be foolish to expect to be able to connect to 3G on 850mhz as well?

Is the type of data connection used (GPRS vs EDGE vs 3G) based on a special configuration setting in WM or does it just connect to 3G on its own?

DT
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] bongowireless:
After installing Radio v1.00.25.05 from tom_codon post and testing with our Rohde & Schwarz CMU200 communication tester and with a shielding box we were able to confirm without a doubt that this particular ROM is 100% quad band and agree with evilgabbie's post. Test quality was excellent all all bands and could receive calls on all four frequencies. We noticed that it performed properly on auto on all frequencies and additionally forcing it to 850/1900MHz turned off 900/1800MHz and vise versa.

As everyone has expected the 850/1900 3G is not activated in this ROM as of yet but I'm sure that will change after more ROM's are released or cooked. So it just goes to show you that there is a GSM quadband chipset on board as most of us expected. Motorola has used quadband chipsets for years in almost all their mobile devices and controlled it by firmware and looks like HTC does the same. Likely all done because of market sharing and what carrier has the deepest pockets.

I will test other ROM versions to see if they are quad as well.

Big thanks to tom_codon. I think anyone using it should consider a donation as this is a great find. I know I will for sure.
