That link is for the whole ROM including the radio. One of the experts needs to extract just the radio to post here. I dont want to try any of the other radios until I am sure I know I can revert back to 3.45.25.21.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Maarten_NL:
I just flashed 4.46.25.24 HTC yesterday, seems to work fine and good GPs lock.. But my battery drains like hell, charged it over night, took it off the charger at 10am after one call 95%, made like 10 shot calls and recieved email and checked one webpage.. 74% at 3pm...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] samsat:
Remember that the TP2 once fully charged internally disconnects from the charger and starts running on the battery. This could have occured at say 3 am meaning your phone was on battey power since then.

Having said that, my TP2 will run almost 3 days with some calls, bluetooth, emails Wifi and game playing. It's sitting at 90% now (3pm) after it's night time charge. By the end of tomorrow it will be between 50 and 70%.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mika34:
Is it any differend between those 2?

4.46.25.24 - HTC

Found a radio 3.45.25.21, if anyone wants to try it...

Here it is

Not tried it myself though, as quite happy with current radio...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] samsat:
Well done for finding this radio.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] romeo0119:
Thanks let me try it

It seem like my 3g keep fluctuate, and batt is a killer
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] samsat:
That shows you how these radios perform differently on different devices in different countries. My battery level is on 70% and it's day 2 since the last charge (email checking via GPRS every 30 minutes, BT on plus some calls and some WiFi).

I will continue to run this radio for a while before trying the 3.46.25.30 hotfix version that was removed from the HTC site.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ATLDON:
WOW this radio increased my GPS speed from 30sec to 1min on the 3.46.25.30 radio to under 10 seconds.

Testing it now for battery life
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] drawflex:
i see some peeps talking about a 'GPS patch' ? , can someone shed any light on this please, i'm using 4.46.25.24 - HTC.. do you mean the HTC issued hot-fix ? i've got logging turned off, a-gps on, but my sat lock could still be better, takes 2-3 mins sometimes. Any GPS tips anyone can throw my way would be well recieved.

EDIT : Also tried 3.46.25.30 , still not all that great.. 2 mins +

Poss anything to do with the phone ROM ???

EDIT 2 : 3.46.25.30 seems to be better for me on phone / 3G signal... seriously though, anyone with GPS poniters please drop me a post.. TA :D

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] WizP:
The Latest 4.46.25.24 HTC Radio is pretty Good on O2.

Has anyone tried any of the Topaz Radios yet?

Before someone asks or tries thiis YOU MUST BE SECURITY UNLOCKED TO DO THIS AND THIS COSTS MONEY If your not sure don't do it as you MAY brick your phone.

I'm hearing good reviews of the 4.48.25.13?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] d200:
found after testing 3.45.25.21 radio on vodafone uk sapped the battery like nothing else back to 4.46.25.24 until i security unlock my tp2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bargsbeer:
Does anyone know where to find the stock Tmobile USA Radio? I have tried both

4.46.25.24

3.45.25.21

With both radios I am still getting dropped calls and no signal.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] coppertop:
Okay...second day with .91.

I'm seeing an improvement with signal strength and data. GPS is a little on the slow side though.

Battery life... not much difference. Just re-flashed my ROM so it's hard to get a handle on battery performance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
I don't think that'll make a difference if you're in the same area. But the main factor will be where you are and the carrier you're on - e.g. if a certain radio works well for me in my location, with my carrier, it doesn't necessarily mean it'll work the same way for you in your location with your carrier.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] CB620:
Ive tried every radio that has been released and so far .17 has been the best for me. i just flashed .91 so ima keep ot till wed and report back.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] wpbear:
I have tried .91 some more places and it is slighty better for bars than .17
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] SirMcFrosty:
same over here the .91 seems better and more stable in signal as .17

about battery live i cannot tell (still to new the phone and i flashed pretty fast the new radio on my phone)

gps... still no navigationsSW on it.. will test later
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] plfinch:
How do I extract nbh from download exe for .91? All my radio ROMs are on and installed from sd card so I can easily swap radios wherever I am (and without a PC/laptop). I see when I start the exe that setup has extracted the nbh file but I cannot find it on my drive.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] DaveShaw:
WinRAR or 7-Zip, just open the Exe with them.

If you need just the Radio and not the ROM, then you'll been to look a bit harder. Tools like NBHExtract and HTCRT will be needed ;).

Dave
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] plfinch:
Just needed the extracted nbh file - 7-Zip did the trick. Thanks.

wow i downloaded one of your radios and it went through successful but it made my phone completely out i cant turn it back on or nothing did i fry my phone trying to put a 4.49 radio over a 2.23. WU radio damn i feel dumb right now can someone please PM me or something
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
What brand/type of carrier (GSM or CDMA) do you have?

You're not with Verizon or Sprint, are you? This thread has GSM radios, not CDMA.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
2.23 that he quotes is a Verizon radio version, so I fear that you are right.

To the original poster, you need to flash a CDMA radio, check out the CDMA sub-forum.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] :
flashed .91, but had to roll back to .88: data connection was noticeably slower i every app!! now that I'm back t the .88 it's ALMOST as it was before, but it still feels a bit slower then at the beginning...but only in some apps (opera 10 beta 3, mainly)! placebo effect?! :(

waiting for another serious radio update now....

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] santiargy:
I'm confused... I've had a few ATT phones in the past, that I've used in Argentina and Brasil, without any problems, getting HSDPA/3G. Now, I bought a Touch Pro 2 from T-Mobile and I can't get it to work on 3G. I've tried a couple of different ROMs and a few Radios...but no luck.

I saw the discussion on the TMobile phones not working with ATT and I'm wondering if my cell is suited only for the TMobile network. That would be very weird as the TMobile web says the frequency on the phone is the same as with any other phones:

Band (frequency):	850 MHz;900 MHz;1800 MHz;1900 MHz

Unless the WCDMA works on a different frequency... Any suggestions?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] santiargy:
I just saw this on the TMobile website:

"You will not be able to roam with your T-Mobile 3G device on another carrier's 3G network. T-Mobile devices use the 1700Mhz/2100Mhz frequency band (for 3G) and it is specific to T-Mobile. You can however roam on another carrier's 1900Mhz frequency band using GSM. Likewise, another carrier’s 3G devices will not be able to roam on our 3G network."

So...i'm totally screwed it seems. In my area, there's only 800/1900... I never thought the same phone will come with different frequencies!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] woffoja:
.91

Flashed the .91 radio. First Radio since the stock AT&T Radio that's worked in my area in the suburbs of Atlanta. Very annoying not being able to update the weather at my house because the location wasn't working. This one worked over .17 and so far (in the past minute) seems good.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dfspot:
I am thinking its an AT&T thing because I'm in Atlanta also 10min from downtown and the .17 is superior on T-mobile. It's a cool balance between battery use and speed... the others are not as balanced they may be cool on the web but gps is slow... .17 has a good balance of all worlds on T-mobile with every ROM I've tired...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] killlove84:
No I was with US Celllular and I unlocked my phone then took it to At&t but I wasn't able to use alot of the features on the phone so i updated the radio with a WU radio, but someone told me to check out this download because the radio was the same as At&t so now i basically need a new phone I'm guess because the only thing that happens is that when the phone is plugged in to the computer the orange light comes on and off on the phone but i doesnt connect or the phone doesn't turn on or nothing so any advice on what i should do until I go buy another phone, and oh the phone is a HTC Touch Pro2 from us cellular
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] efrant:
US Cellular is a CDMA carrier... If you got your device from then, then it is a CMDA device, NOT a GSM device (even though you have a SIM slot to use on GSM networks)...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
When you press the Power key nothing happens?

Have you tried to get it into bootloader mode? If possible, then you can flash a CDMA radio-rom (the proper radio for your phone) using the sd-card method.

Bootloader: With the phone off, press and hold down the Volume-down key and at the same time press the Power key. A tri-color screen should appear -- the bootloader screen.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmd512:
Absolutely not safe. It'll turn your TP2 into a big block of jello.

Just use *.91, it's the latest anyway and works fine.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
Someone reported the same thing a few days ago. I can't remember the outcome for certain, but I fear that flashing a CDMA radio to a GSM phone really does brick it, the other guy couldn't get it into the bootloader as I recall. It's definitely worth a try though :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Masor:
Just looking for a recomendation

Im using radio 4.49.25.17 for my phone (GSM), any recommendations on which one to use?

Im using the 7th Feb Energy LEO rom currently, Gonna try the latest version once its up.

Never flashed the radio so new to me

Cheers for the help.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Die Bruine:
Well ok, because you're new to this ;) . Which Radio to use can only be answered by yourself. I would suggest testing 25.57, 25.88 and 25.91. For me personally 25.57 was the best 'till now. This morning I flashed 25.91 to test it. 25.88 did not work for me because I had some BT issues which I never ever had before. Mind you though, this can be related to your ROM. Chef's use different drivers which can F up in combination with a specific radio. Furthermore, what signal do you use? For example in Holland there is no Edge coverage. So you're limited to GSM/3G/H. In-house I have bad H coverage which is why I use my phone in GSM mode. Only when I want to look something up on the internet do I switch to 3G auto mode. 25.88 can perform better in 3G mode. Since I don't use it that often and the fact I had some BT issues, its not on my phone anymore. On the other hand 25.57 might give you better and faster GPS fix and lock in your country.

This is why it is impossible for someone else to tell you which Radio ROM you should use. I had a Radio ROM for my Raphael which worked almost perfectly for US users with the same OS ROM as I had. For me in Holland it was a nightmare. Battery drainage made me switch. You can expect these kind of issues with Rhodium Radio ROM's as well. You will find that the majority of users in this topic have one of the three ROM's I mentioned before. Stick to those three. Usually the three most used ROM's are the best and one of them will work for you in combination with your location, operator and connection(type) usage...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Wodka:
Try the latest (I have just flashed it so no experiences yet). Do not try 4.49.25.88 - poor gps reception and short battery life (t-mob, czech republic, tested for more then one week).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Masor:
Cheers mate, i will give them a blast then i guess :D. Generaly 3G and H (mostly) where i am. Guess ill have a play about with the different version then

Ta for the help :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] sumflipnol:
:p:D That good old humor I remember from the EnergyROM Manila 2.1 thread!

I actually tried the .91 radio for a few hours. I had worse reception here in the Bay Area! I re-flashed the .88 radio and my signal bars are strong again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmd512:
Yeah, how are the new ROMs looking? I've been kind of out of it mainly because the one I have loaded from way back when is so stable, I've seen no reason to update. But other than that, closing on a new home soon, and to my dismay, T-mobile signal inside that house is absolutely abysmal. I think the reason is that it's a new house with all the radiant barrier and energy efficient crap... doesn't help with the signal getting.

So, I'll be a busy bunny once I move in and trying out all the different radios to see which one works best. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] m8tix:
Here my impressions about 4.49.25.91

I switched over from .17 to .91 since last week and I have to say that it improved a little bit the 3g signal in my area (europe > austria > vienna) and I think also the battery drainage but might be perhaps a placebo effect :D

I have now almost constantly a full 3g bar and I think a more stable H signal without any random disconnects while surfing which wasn't the case with .17 (around 4 to 5 bars on the 3g signal).

All in all a small improvement but worth to upgrade it, at least in my area ;)

I installed the 4.49.25.88 on my Tilt 2 with rom TPC V5.1 with MAX 2.5 manila hybrid with footprints, ereader, and document tab and it worked great in the Florida area, low battery consumtion with great siginal and GPS aquisition. at the beggining of this week I replaced my rom with the clean out ATT rom and it has still been good, but I noticed with this rom, the signal was not as great as it was with the other. In my opinion, this has been a great radio. I am going to give the .91 a go here in the next few days to see what the difference is. I hope this helps someone. God bless.

Went with the "Clean Stock ROM" here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=585403 . Is the quality and speed of all Bluetooth functions controlled by the Radio ROM?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rajuabju:
ATT Tilt 2 user, in Los Angeles.

I've been using .91 for about 24 hours now.

Up till now, I had stuck with .17 because all the other radio's, while improving on some elements, either had worse reception, slower GPS lock, or crap battery life.

No more! .91 is superb.

1) I notice I have 3-4 bars at places I previously had 2-3. Biggest example is in the parking garage of my company's office building, previously, NO reception on the P2 and P3 levels. I can now make/receive calls, albeit its with 1 or 2 bars at best.

2) CALL QUALITY is improved. This is noticeable for me. As many of you know, LA is one of those places ATT has SUCKED for some time now because of their overloaded network due to the iPhone.

3) GPS lock and Data speed are about the same as .17 - I dont notice any improvement or downgrade. Speed test results are always coming in above 1MB

4) Battery life "seems" to be slightly improved, however as its only been 24 hours, I cant tell for sure for another few days.

For now, unless I see something majorly wrong, I'm sticking with .91 This is the first radio since .17 where I see overall benefits.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mrgodai:
been using 4.49.25.91 for a day, performance of battery/3g/wifi is in between .57 and .17 for me, i'm sticking with this.

update: i would often get on Edge with 4.49.25.91 in areas with bad reception, which never happens with the other ones i've tried. Standby battery usage is amazing though, only use 1% overnight, compare to like 10% with 4.49.25.17. I'm switching to 4.49.25.57.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] coppertop:
After over a week on .91, I've found voice, data and gps to be noticeably better. Battery life is about the same, maybe a smidgen worse but not enough to complain about.

The bad thing is regardless which radio I try, I can't get past one bar sitting in my living room. AT&T really needs to hurry up with their microcell.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] SeanGotti:
TMOUS - Los Angeles, CA

Tested Radio: 25.88

Noord-Holland - Netherlands

I'm testing 4.49.25.91 now and my first impression is that it's much better then 4.49.25.57. Don't know anything yet about the batterie life but the reception is much better!

Definitely the best reception so far :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] b24zero:
Been using 4.49.25.91 for about a week. Missed a lot calls (phone didn't ring at all) Voice Mail popped up a day or two later. Don't know if it's AT&T's problem.

Battery drained faster than previous versions.

Exchange Sync slower than before.

For me here in Tidewater VA I left .91 already because it just was nothing like the others. I went so far back that I'm now running 4.47.25.24 just to get a baseline again. .91 was not a good radio for my phone.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmd512:
Nope. Been using it for over 2 weeks already.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jstanke2:
I just switched back to .17 here in central Indiana. I have tried using .88 and it was pretty much the same as .17. .57 bombed for me, several disconnects and when I went to .91, my radio preferred the edge network and would stay on the fence about switching to 3G. When I moved back to .17, I get H nearly all the time, and a really solid signal too. Just my observations.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rajuabju:
Ok, I've now been using .91 radio for several days, and here is a more in depth review.

First off, I'm using a Tilt2 on the ATT network in Los Angeles.

BATTERY LIFE: Slight improvement. In an average day's usage (and I'm a fairly heavy user both voice & data), I used to get to about 25% battery by the end of the night. Right now, after several days, I've been in the 28% to 32% range each evening. I would say that the improvement is negligible at best, but at the very least, its not worse off than before.

RECEPTION STRENGTH: Major Improvement. I get signal in a LOT more places (such as underground garages) that I previously did not have, and I notice 1-3 bars more all over LA. Major improvement for me.

CALL QUALITY: Slight DECREASE. I seem to get a bit more static and other noise on calls than in any previous radio.

DATA & GPS Data speed is slightly improved, speed tests show at least 1MB down every time, whereas before it fluctuated a lot more. GPS lock is about the same as before in terms of speed and # of satellites, or at least I cant tell any difference.

Overall, everything except the minor issue with call quality has been very nice with .91 after several days of testing, and I'm sticking with this.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dizzyraider:
I'm not getting static with .91, but I do have the other side hearing me at a lower volume.

That being said, I have experienced a NOTICEABLE improvement in signal strength while maintaining the same nice data speed as well as quick GPS signal.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Collis:
Mobile 6.1 and 6.5....

Maybe a noob question, but I can't seem to find a solid anwser anywhere: Can you flash the 4.49.25.xx radios to a Windows Mobile 6.1 Rhodium?

It's my girl's phone, now installed with the fisrt T-Mobile Stock rom, and she has a much worse reception and GPS with her 3.44.25.27 radio than I do with the 4.49.25.17 radio (I got my rhodium months later). However, due to some specialized medical software installed on the device, I can not flash the ROM to a higher version. Hence the question: Can I install just the better radio, without touching the current rom version. (I'll then just have to figure out how to deal with the rilphone.dll issue).

Thanks!
