Radio_Rhodium_4.49.25.17.rar Mirror

Here's a mirror via megaupload... hopefully, this is not an issue: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DIG3O3M7

Anyway, Radio_Rhodium_4.49.25.17.rar My location works fine here in Austin, TX with T-Mobile.

Observations:

1) Google Map My Location via Edge is much more accurate than via 3G. I'm assuming this is because of the 3G cell towers.

2) Fast GPS sync: Ran QuickGPS to update sat positions, then GPSTEST to verify signals before trying google map my location again using GPS.

3) 3G signals indicate 2 to 3 bars more.

Is it still on? i just clicked and not alive anymore, but thanks a lot for trying:(

Are you guys subscribed to rapidshare or paying monthly? Maybe that's the reason I cannot connect?

Edit: BIG THANKS to Cheeze[iT] for emailing 4.49.25.17 radio!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cheeze[iT]:
ok im confused... I'm in dallas, tx.... which of the newest radios is worth it? the 4.49.25.05 - T-Mobile or 4.49.25.17 - HTC? I'd like to get the my location to work, but if they are both the same, which is better?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jezi:
I believe they are talking about the 4.49.25.17 radio. Check your private messages for more info.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] guntcent:
4.49.25.17 radio confirmed that this version drains nattery after testing it for 3 days already
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
Did you use matching rilphone.dll?

Can somebody upload rilphone.dll for radio 4.49.25.17?

thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] guntcent:
well i just flashed that radio i didnt use the rilphone.dll whats that thing man?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jezi:
Yup, works fine, battery-wise too:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmd512:
Weird, I'm getting awesome battery life with this radio. I have 0 complaints, it's the best radio I've used by far.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] guntcent:
i cant complain battery drain quicker than others butt gps lock instantly like todsy i watch zombieland i had full bars n gps was locked instantly batter was 84% then i came out it was 76% thats quick drain ill buy extended battery
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] HeavyComponent:
Ok what do you guys think? I resynced my batter with the radio in my sig and this is the result.

After resync I took my phone off the charge around 10:15 PM EST. It is now 1:12 AM EST and it's at 60%. Did about 4 calls 5 minute minutes average time and a lot of texting. I think it's fine in my point of view...no complaints.

I will say in about 8-9 hours tops it will be dead! I guess I'll carry my charger with me when I go to work.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rick94:
Oké,I don't get it.

Got my TP2 one month ago and flashedit with hard spl and I flashed an cooked rom.

No I came over an Fusion rom and they were talking about radio and rilphone?

Now my question is what is radio & rilphone and once I flashed a new radio can I go back to the stock?

Thanks:D

Oke, my radio now is 3. 46. 25. 30 (but what does this matter and what is rilphone?)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmd512:
YES, but...

... please READ this thread! Your questions have been discussed, reopened, re-discussed, and beaten with a dull shovel 46 times already.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rick94:
Oké, thnx I read 16 pages of the forum and know what the radio is.

Now ar they talking about security unlocked, I have a sim free HTC Touch Pro and I flashed it with hard spl but how do I know if my phone is security unlocked too?

And what is rillphone couldn't find that in those first 16 pages...

Thanks a lot already:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dzotx:
How often are you guys checking email or checking for data?

I flashed 4.49.25.17 yesterday when battery was full and now it's still at 49%... so, I haven't been able to sync it yet. I currently don't have any of my email account setup... so, it's not going out for data unless I web browse or update the weather.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
I've been flashing all day and had a full battery this morning...empty now :(

I do not have a matching Rilphone.dll. That 'talks' more efficient with your radio so it CAN result in better signal strength/GPS fix/Battery life...

So again....Somebody have rilphone.dll for 4.49.25.17 ??? Please :o
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] robbertvw:
What do you mean with you haven't been able to sync it yet? I flashed 4.49.25.17 this afternoon and now I can't sync with outlook anymore. Has this got anything to do with the radio or the missing rilphone.dll?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dzotx:
I was referring to battery re-sync. Did you do a hard-reset after flashing the radio? Not sure if it's required all the time.. but I've always done it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] robbertvw:
Yeah that did the trick, thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rick94:
Have an TP2 with no simlock and I installed hard spl on it.

Am I able to install an new radio now?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] DougAdamsFan:
so I'm a bit of a newb here but here's what I've done and I'd like to know from some of you more advanced users here if I've got this right.

The only rilphone.dll I can find is sitting (hidden) right in my windows folder, and it says it was modified 10/3/09 (today I installed new energyROM and then the radio 4.49.25.17). I went into regedit to look at the DLL entry in the Local machine RIL directory and it has as it's entry rilphone.dll

Problems are:

1. I don't know if the rilphone.dll I'm looking at is the current one for this radio or if it was the one that was included in the ROM. (Found at WINDOWS\rilphone.dll) It has the same time stamp on it as most of the other files in there which is 9:39 on 10/3/09 which is the date of the latest manila 2.5 energy "LEO" rom, but I don't know the created date of the 4.49.25.17 radio.

and 2. the registry entry only says rilphone.dll but doesn't provide a path to the file so I'm not certain if it's pointing to the one in the WINDOWS folder or if there's another one that I just haven't found yet.

I've tried to go as far as I could piecing together the information that's scattered across a bunch of different threads on the forum but I seem to be stuck. I'm assuming that the rilphone.dll I'm looking at is the one from the leo rom what with the date and time being the same as every other file I can find in the directory...is there another location I should be looking for the new one? I'm also assuming that the new rilphone.dll was put somewhere on my phone when I flashed the new radio which may be incorrect.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jezi:
Don't worry, be happy!

Don't know why you guys have to worry so much about finding the right dll when all the ROMs I tried have worked w/ this Radio 4.49.25.17 without doing anything else but flash it.

Mine is working perfectly on the 3 ROMs I tried so far and no battery problems.

EDIT: Btw, whenever I flash a new radio, I always remove the SIM card (just in case there are unwanted signals to interrupt the flashing) and do a hard reset afterwards.

I think I know what confused you guys with the dll stuff, okay, on the RADIO 4.49.25.05, after downloading and opening file, REMOVE the dll folder, then flash as usual. RADIO 4.49.25.17--ready to flash w/o adding or removing anything!

I have a Vodaphone TP2 I just got unlocked and have traveled to the states with. I bought a AT&T simcard with the unlimited calling for $3/day, but the guys said at the store that I won't be able to get data becuase it's different here. I thought I knew better, that I'd just download the AT&T radio and I'd be good to go. Well, the voice calls all work just fine with the new AT&T sim card in, but still no data...even with the AT&T radio flashed....

any thing else i have to do?

Were the AT&T guys right???

Hey guys.

I installed the Photon energy rom yesterday, but i cant seem to get my location correct.

It might have anything to do with the radio, so im giving it a shot.

What is the version to use to fix this?

Thanks! ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] kam_k:
Sorry for repeating my question but I didn't receive any answer.

After flashing the latest radio(4.49.25.17) when I use google maps my location jumps from the city I am actually in to another which is 300 km away.

On the other hand the overall phone signal and gps has improved that is why I'd like to keep this radio. By the way the same thing happened for me after flashing radio: 4.46.25.24.

Do anyone have any idea what might be causing this :confused:

But the 3 or 4 at the bottom of the list at the beginning of this thread have more reports of it working.

Has anyone tried this method, or is it the same thing as what the CAB install does?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mccune:
It's pretty much the same. But instead of overwriting the file you add another one and change the registry to point to the new file. This method was no success for me either.

4.49.25.17

Hi All

I am getting sporadic massive battery drains with this battery. Today at work my phone pinged with an email having been sat on my desk for a couple of hours unattended. When I picked it up I was shocked at how hot it felt and noticed that the battery had gone down to about 50% in just a few hours of stand by. As a test I left it as it was and the battery drain continued with the device staying hot (around 35 degrees centigrade at least!). After another hour or so the battery was down to somewhere around 25%. At this point I put the phone in to flight mode and it cooled down and the battery seemed to stabilise. I then performed a soft reset and started the radio again. This time, the battery drain was much less and it did not get hot.

I have been using this radio for a few days and this is the first time it's happened to me. It think that there are some kind of temporary network conditions which cause this. Another symptom that occured at the same time is that ActiveSync (which I have hooked up to an exchange server for push email) gave me the message that it could not sync because of temporary network conditions, even though it was actually pulling my emails off the server. Wierd, eh? I haven't been able to reproduce the phenomenon.

Cheers

So here are my impressions:

(I'm using a T-mobile USA TP2 in the Tacoma area of Washington State with NRGZ's 'Photon' October 6th ROM)

I tried 4.49.25.17 HTC first and I was amazed by how many signal bars I got.... but it was all a lie. I usually got 1-2 bars of EDGE at my house. If I was lucky I would sometimes get 1 bar of HSPA) With the 4.49.25.17 I got 3-4 bars of EDGE but never HSPA and but data transfer rate was like what I had with 1-2 bars of EDGE. Also, My Location did not work.

Then I tried 4.49.25.05 T-Mobile UK and it yields the same results as my original T-mobile USA Radio.Ii'm sticking with 4.49.25.05 because it lets My Location work! Note: I did not use the rilphone.dll or the cab, I only flashed the Radio.

I hope that helps for some that are looking for a Radio Version who are in the USA. I'm guessing that it will have the same results in other States aside from Washington.

Summary:

Washington State + TMOUSATP2 + PhotonOct6 + 4.49.25.05 Radio = :)

Tweaking rhodium

Sorry I didn't post yet, Manila 2.5 by Leo seemed to work awsome after the new radio, lower pagepool setting(20mb), some video tweaks, some memory enhancements like tnyynt SD TuneUp and SKTools5(for benchmarking and viewing results), but however, Manila 2.5 got more and more buggy and needed too many resets to refresh. So I will apply the tweaks to Leos manila 2.1(first without pagepool change) and keep posting in the appropriate section.

I will copy this in to the appropriate section also.:(

P.S. The last radio works awsome, and GPS lock really fast!!!

I has done my reading but some people say that you only need Hard-SPL to flush radio, others say you need SIM unlock. Can anyone tell me from personal experience if Hard-SPL is just enough or not?

I flashed HardSPL before I started flashing ROMs -- nothing more -- no sim-unlock.

Sim unlock

I'm just posting this cause = looked for the info for a while. I DID NOT have to sim unlock my phone to flash a new radio. Didnt even have to hard reset and still have the my location working and Gps is locking in seconds not minutes now. Thought I'd throw that out there.

JFYI, for me, Radio_Rhodium_4.49.25.17 and my location works much better.

Most all small towns are now recognized by my location weather on home page automatically when traveling from city to city.;)

With oem tmo radio, only some large cities that were in my location list or weather would show up on home page weather, and the updates... sporadic at best. This was with all the right my location features enabled, nothing different than it is now, except the radio.

So, my take is that Radio_Rhodium_4.49.25.17 is an improvement and works well.

Have not noticed a battery drain more than normal. The 2.5 manila in EnergyROM always seems to be a power and memory hog for me. The EnergyROM with2.1 manila is not. Although in ROMeOS3_WM65_1_20_23016_041009 with manila 2.5, the memory was not leaking at all, and battery drain was much better.

I still like the EnergyROM with 2.5 the best :D...

Both work well with Radio_Rhodium_4.49.25.17 as does all other roms I have tested.

So a 1700 band radio..?

Sorry, feel like I've looked all over....

is there currently a radio available that supports T-Mobile US' 3G?

I've flashed away my stock rom/radio and haven't had 3G since. Am I crazy? Is there something I'm overlooking?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
What radio-rom are you using?

And when you select Auto or WCDMA as Network Type you get no 3G or H signal-icon?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dlac87:
I've tried

4.46.25.24, 4.49.25.05, 3.44.25.27 and probably others. I'm back to the stock rom i got from cdguider, but this wouldn't overwrite back to the stock radio.

I'm not a genius with this stuff - though I had a vogue for years without ever needing to address a question to you fine folks, due to your well-detailed instructions...

...but I'm just not sure, I guess, how to configure t-mobile's 3G settings.

I've gone through several roms now, most 6.5 and this stock 6.1 - some have had an area where I choose a band - never is 1700 a choice. Some have had an area asking "auto" vs GSM or as you said WCDMA - would I want WCDMA in order to get 3G on T-Mobile USA...?

If you know that these radios do work, in some configuration, with T-Mobile US in order to have 3G, let me know that at least. If you are able to help me with said configuration, either in a 6.1 rom or 6.5, then I thank you very much for your patience with me :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Have to ask: Are you

sure

you're in a spot that has 3G coverage?

As for setting the band (I assume you know where these settings are): You don't set the Band Frequency (e.g., 1700 or 1900) -- ignore that part, it should be set on Auto. When I mentioned selecting WCDMA I just meant that this will force the radio to try to use that Type of Network in order to test the function, rather than a stronger GSM signal. I wouldn't recommend leaving it in that state; I always pick GSM or Auto.

Have you tried 4.49.25.17? That's what I'm using -- on a T-Mobile Network in the USA, and it's got a 3G (it shows "H") connection right now.

But I think that most of these radio roms should work...that's probably why you can't find much/any info about this problem -- it shouldn't exist.

Have you tried a hard reset -- again -- after flashing a radio?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Nipje:
Hello guys,

I have a couple of questions that are radio-related.

I am about to flash my first radio and rom, but i have some questions.

I have a touch pro 2 phone without a simlock!, and i live in holland. I have checked my radio version and it appears that i have the oldest radio version in the list.

I want to flash my radio to the newest one, and the first problem is that i'm not sure wich one i should take?

Then i would like to know if it acutally is wise to flash my radio, or can it cause problems with my phone? And at last, with the newest radio installed, can i still flash my phone with all the roms posted in this thread or are they for a specific radio version?

hope you can help me a bit !
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dlac87:
I actually have that particular radio installed now, it was the last one I tried. I just got the phone yesterday, and had this little situation occur before I got home - where I am now - but according to T-Mo's coverage map, I should be good to go with 3G. But no, no H. Just a big ol' E.

Not every time, but I've done a few hard resets through this process...

I was wondering why I hadn't seen a single word of this from anyone else.... But yeah, no luck thus far. I'll try forcing the WCDMA...

out of curiosity - which rom are you using?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
I'm running the NRG Photon Manila 2.1, Oct-6 version.

BTW: When you have done hard resets did the dialog pop up on the first boot about "new sim detected" (something like that) which asks if it can configure settings for T-Mobile in the United States (something like that)?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dlac87:
Yessir, I do remember something like that occuring. This was, in one rom, followed by "we've found to connections (or something like that) Which would you like to use?" with the options T-Mobil and Tuyo Mobile presented.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
This probably doesn't explain away your problem, but FYI:

My house is also situated well inside of a supposed 3G area according to T-Mo's coverage map, but I usually only have 1-2 bars of 3G (H), and that generally only if I

force

it to use 3G (I'm at the base of a hill, so maybe I'm in a radio-shadow).

At work, where I am now (and where I shouldn't be spending time on non-work-related stuff :p ) I have a strong 4 bars of 3G (in Bend, Oregon)...so this 4.49.25.17 radio software definitely works on T-Mo USA's network.

You seem to have a unique problem...which, unfortunately, isn't helpful.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dlac87:
You know what, I'll be optimistic and wait and see what it's like at school/work. You might be right, and I currently don't have a vehicle with which to test that theory out. I'll wait and see how it fairs over the next day or so, and hope that, yeah, my house is the problem.

It could easily be that. Brand new phone and all, I haven't really seen it perform normally before, you know, I decided to screw around with it.

thanks for at least confirming that theses radios SHOULD be giving me 3G. I'm probably just getting antsy to easily.
