Hi All,

I found my Wifi Signal very low.

Are upgrade the radio will improve the Wifi signal ?

Thanks

ROM : 1.93.831.1 WWE

Radio : 1.08.25.20

Protocol : 52.44.25.24H
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] band27:
Absolutely, the radio is responsible for all your connections whether it's GPS, GPRS, 2G or 3G GSM, Bluetooth and yes, even Wifi.....

The more reception you have with any of these connections the better your battery life will be as well...

At least this has been my experience.

Change to QUADBAND 3G radio and HTC warranty

Is the xperia radio the one that has the 3G band both for Europe and the US? (1900 and 2100, QUADBAND 3G)

I have the 1.00.25.08, which one do I install if I want my Diamond to work on 3G both in Europe and in the US?

If I change the radio, will I loose the warranty on my HTC phone? Or maybe it is possible to once I come back from Europe, change the radio back to the original one, and if you need to send it to HTC for repair, they wouldn't notice the radio was changed? (allthough it was security unlocked...)

Telstra 850MHz HSDPA Radio

What radio supports the 850MHz HSDPA NextG Network? i tried the one with the latest version number - GPS was awesome, and i had 3G Telstra signal, but there was no option for 850MHz in the network settings? Any help would be freakin' sweet :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lasterato:

i forgot to mention im using the latest HK WWE 1.93 ROM :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] patand:
...dunno what to do anymore...

This is my setup at the moment after owning the phone for about ten days:

* With ROM: 0.99.bElite

* Country/Location/Network:Sweden/Skåne/Three(3),Tre

* Battery life: Not checked yet

* GPS: Not importat at the moment

* GPRS/3G/EDGE/HSDPA:Same on all but one

* WiFi signal: Not important at the moment

* General comments: Read below

Phone bought in France, flashed to English

SPL-1.40Olinex

These radioversions i have tried:

1.00.25.03 Stock radio. Works ok but bad reception on phone

1.00.25.05 Same bad reception. Difference is I can't send sms

1.00.25.08 Same bad reception. Difference is I can't send sms

1.00.25.BS14 Same bad reception. Difference is I can't send sms

1.00.25.16 Same bad reception. Difference is I can't send sms

1.08.25.08 Same bad reception. Difference is I can't send sms

1.09.25.23 Better reception. Get H and two pins but can't send sms and can't find GPS

1.08.25.20 Same bad reception. Difference is I can't send sms

1.09.25.14 Won't finish the flash. Get error message

As you might figured I really want to get alittle bit better reception.

Any ideas?

Will I have better luck if I flash to another ROM and my phone? Duttys perhaps or any ohter then elite 0.99.b?

Hoping you guys can help. For now I'm using stock radio

Best regards Pat.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] evalabonazza:
Sorry if the topic and maybe 'already been treated, but I would understand if the diamond and' bad in 3g or e 'only a matter of a radio rom for improvement?

Why in the gsm sensitivity 'and' good, so you can not 'say in 3g!

:cool:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mccune:
@Patand

Did you HardSPL the right way? Maybe try it again.

Hard reset your device and then check again.

If nothing helps I would return the device for warranty. Unless you have bad reception with other phones as well. In this case you should get a different provider..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] patand:
@mccune

There are different ways to HardSPL? When I got the phone my first thought was to get rid of the French language and get Swedish or English so after a quick serach on Google I found this forum and just followed the instructions of how to flash the phone to English. All the preinstalled software was gone when it was finished but that was the easy part.

Would I get any advantages if i changed ROM-ver?

Right now I have three pins in GSM mode where I had two pins in H-mode.

I'm also looking at a SE K770 at the same place as my Diamond and that phone has full 3G reception.

Is it possible to send the phone on repair since i flashed it?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] burnzedy:
@patand

Maybe you should try another rom, belite is quite "old" (even if it should be a good one),

and your problems with sms is quite strange....

And no you can't send your phone to repair, you need to put back original rom andoriginal spl before doing so.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] tangcla:
patand: being unable to send SMS is an odd one. You haven't once named a radio which has 'good' reception.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] patand:
@tangcla

The only rom that enabled me to send sms was/is the stock 1.00.25.03 but the problem with thisone is the overall reception. With 1.00.25.03 I get two pins on the GSM-signal where I used to get full 3G signal with my old phone. The only other ROM that I've tried that gave me better reception ( two pins H-reception ) was the 1.09.25.23 but the problem with thisone was as with the otherones that I could'nt send sms and also that the GPS signal took forever.

Also when on other locations I almost never got 3G reception on the 1.00.25.03 ROM
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dannyoneill:
I have been conducting some FieldTest and Battlog tests on my fav roms. Same conditions each time.

1.09.25.23

-63db signal

17mAh battery draw

1.08.25.20

-63db signal

15mAh battery draw

I have tested both quite a lot and found they operate in much the same way, GPS fix is the same, the only different is 1.08 uses less battery.

This is with the rom in my sig and on T-Mobile UK
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] band27:
The is very useful information.

I already this radio. I sense it had good battery life.

However I came from the 1.00.25.05. & 1.00.25.08. Any comparisons with this radio?

Thanks dannyoneill!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] patand:
Any recommendation on what ROM to use instead of 0.99bElite? What are som of the gains?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mccune:
@Patand

You can just apply the HardSPL like the instructions mentioned in the HardSPL thread.

You can return your phone for warranty but you should undo the HardSPL part and reflash an official ROM.

But this is a bit OT so you'd better continue in the HardSPL thread for this questions and help.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dannyoneill:
Ive not tested the older ones as they are too old for me and the performance isnt as good, GPS lock on is too long. There is a reason the battery lasts longer and i value performance over battery life. I get 2 days use out of it which is fine by me.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] patand:
@mccune

I really don't think that I need to return the phone to service, I just need a better ROM then the 0.99bElite. What would you recommend? Is it just like flashing the radio except I need to backup the information first?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mccune:
Flashing a ROM will delete all data on your device! Not the Internal Storage (4GB) though.

Can't really tell you wich ROM you should use. Try one of the 2.0 builds. They seem pretty fast and stable. Just read some threads before flashing, might save you some trouble ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dannyoneill:
Ive tried a load, even cooking my own 2.00 rom but always go back to duttys 3.6b.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] anthony82:

I had the 1.08.25.05 and was very happy until the GPS wouldn't see any signal .I have used the version 25.20 and solved issue just wondered if this is a bug or should i be lookin to replace phone some time soon .
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 14andrewh:
Hi Lasterato, the quad band radios support 850, if you cannot select the frequency then it might be a ROM problem. Dutty had a fix for his ROM which I have attached below.

Can anybody tell me what is the radio that is good for 3G both in the Americas as in Europe/Asia?

Thank you.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] calito:
Lamentablemente las bandas 3G no se pueden cambiar, es cuatribanda en GPRS pero no en las de 3G.

Europea para europa la americana para nosotros. Suerte y buen viaje. Carlos

Unfortunately 3G bands can not be changed, it is in GPRS quad but not on 3G. It is a very trite about 5 months ago when Europe was left to the radio and triband quad 3g but the Americans wanted and what had not. Latest exit. Good luck and travel. Carlos

So far I can say that this Radio is a bit quicker to pick up GPS, about 15 seconds to get a fix on 7 Satelites. Calls and SMS no problem. Seems about the same for picking up IE connection, (G,E, and H/3G), same signal bars as in my office with Radio v1.00.25.08.

Overall, might be a tad bit better than Radio v1.00.25.08, will see overnight how the battery Drains.

you meant Hard SPL ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] band27:
There are 2 types of unlocked....

1) SIM Unlocked: When any SIM card can be used from any provider.

2) CID (Security Unlocked): Where all restriction have been removed to allow for anything to be installed....i.e. Radios from HTC HD

Question?

: How do you know if you phone has been already Security Unlocked?

Go to your bootloader screen (Volume Down + Soft Reset Button= Bootloader Screen). Should say, "Security Unlocked"

If you don't have that then you need to get this unlocked still to download things like Radios from HTC HD.

Hope this helps...;)

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] anthony82:
just to explain:

- noise on signal (dbm):

A good signal strength is -60dBm (or more positive).

A poor signal strength is -90dBm or more negative.

- battery consumption (in mA):

batteries works better with a low consumption (obviously! :D), so 0mA is no consumption, -10mA is low consumption, -100mA is high consumption.

I'm not an engineer, but I think this is the explanation. ;)
