READ THE THREAD! :mad:

Each radio will perform differently depending on location/carrier/ROM etc.

Extra RAM is ROM/Radio dependant.

Just try some different ones and see what suits you.

PS

One bit of advice. Get a 1.66+ ROM. :cool:

can anyone tell me how i can install .dll files with resco like rilphone.dll?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chimpsinties:
Why do you want to install RilPhone.dll?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] antaed:
24h since i've flashed 2.08.50.08_2.

before this i had 2.06.50.23_3 and i was quite happy with it, very stable and good battery life.

first impression about the new battery is very good, faster browsing, better 3g signal. battery drains faster now but i know i have to wait for a full recharging cycle to know how it really performs.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] iDance°-->ra1n:
it was only an example...i want only know how i can install .dll files with resco
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] danusko:
you dont need install it, only copy rilphone.dll file to windows folder and thats all

copy paste, if is there other rilphone.dll, only overwrite it..

i think this is the way, if i am wrong, some profi guys here correct me
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ephestione:
I MAY remember you, I was among the +v guys exactly in that period, I probably joined in 2000.

Anyway, apparently from what I gathered around, newer radios don't require newer roms, but it's usually the other way around (to the point a custom rom may not boot if you don't have at least a certain radio version)

I am using 2.06.50.23_3 right now, and I am definitely interested in knowing the developments of your experience ;)

I get less than 1% per hour drain in idle now (almost 2hrs with 1% sometimes), so I'll use you as a guinea pig :p :D

Anyone here live in California or in the US care to share which radio is giving them the best battery life? I'm on 2.06.51.07, not so good for me.

I'm from Singapore.

I was on 2.05.51.05_2 on a stock 1.48 WWE Rom..battery usually last me about only 7 hours a day before I have to recharge since I used it quite intensively and extensively..

I am from Los Angeles area.. I am on 2.05 (got it with the stock rom). Did HSPL (thanks Bepe) and I don't know if i want to try... In my office reception with the touch HD was horrible, and with the HD2 and 2.05 radio is fairly good. I am afraid to screw it up by flashing 2.06..:(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Tubgirl:
Well I don't care too much about battery life since I can always bring a spare battery with me. What I'm looking for is the best 3G reception possible. If anyone here should notice that a certain radio ROM has better reception than another then please please share! I suspect that newer might not always mean better reception... maybe they sacrifice reception on favor of battery life in newer ROM's?

Walked out door at 2PM PST with 88% battery life.

Now 12:52AM with 46% remaining.

Moderate use (fiddling with phone for at least an 1-1.5 hours. 30 minutes of call time. Installed 5 cabs, restarted phone about 3-4 times, surfed the web about 30 minutes on Edge and 30 minutes on Wifi) since 2PM PST when 88% remaining.

I don't install yet the HSPL... but I want first to know if radio 2.06.xx.xx is a good radio in our country. About problems to uninstall the HSPL and return to the original SPL 1.42.000 many people try this experience and report all ok... others report no sucess. I have also a 16GB micro-sd and I read people after install HSPL don't see the card when have 16GB So... I want to know if @Bepe or @Cotulla think about problems with 16GB card :o before install HSPL

Need some explanations

:confused::confused::confused:

Ok guys please can someone help me out. What exactly is a radio? is it just part of the phone which handles all the data stuff like signal, data connections, reception ect....? I cant seem to find any info out on what a radio is exactly...

Also Im planning to perform my first flash with my leo today using hardspl. Im currently running , a the 1.48 stock rom with a 2.05 radio, what is the best radio to flash too? Im thinking of using either l3v5y's l3v5y Leo ROM or XannyTech's XannyTechROM GRID LEO 2.4 Turbo (Probably xanny's), and neither mention anything about radios, does that mean I can falsh any particular radio to my device when running there rom?

And I live in the UK, does anybody know the best radio to use here for the best reception ect?

Thanks :) *Prepares to get flamed*

Please sticky this thread mate !
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Ibb1982:
I would be really interested in this too, however I've just bitten the bullet and have got Radio version 2.06.51.07 on.

I can instantly see I have full 3G as opposed to 3G with 2 bars. Early stages yet, will have to see how the battery fairs.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ephestione:
...exactly my point :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] antaed:
ok mate, i'll keep you posted but bare in mind i am on a 3g only network and use another rom, so there might be differences in what we experience.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
I have a problem, hoping someone knows whats wrong.

With my 2.07 based ROM, I get echoing when I use the phone. That is with any 2.07 or 2.08 radio.

Someone suggested I try using 2.05 or 2.07 rilphone.dll.

I tried both, but when I copy the dll to my \windows directory and reboot, I cant turn my phone on...it is disabled completely.

Has anyone else seen this, or know what could cause it? :confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ephestione:
hehe, thank you ;)

I actually avoid activating 3g at all for battery reasons, yet I suppose an improvement for you should supposedly mean a chance of improving for me too!

Usually rilphone.dll handling is not advised from all the reports I've seen in the forum. The links in this thread are not meant for users to routinely overwriting their dll file, since you would just flash a whole radio rom if you wanted to upgrade that subsystem of the device.

Anyway, every single report I've read about rilphone.dll update was regarding the device hanging or wihtout radio serviceability :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
Any idea why I have the "echo" with my ROMs then? It sounds like what I say in the sppeaker is played back through into the earpiece and is VERY annoying.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] PG101:
I had the same echo problem with 2.08...._2 and 2.07..._02.. and some data connection problems. Battery drain was also much faster.. even after 3 full cycles of charging and discharging..

Reverted back to 2.06.50.23_2 - have the 576MB RAM on Xnay's Evo 1.3 and no more echoing.. and i remember the batt with the 2.06 was quite acceptable.

Any one has any other views?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Starfury:
I have had echoing on calls on 1.48 and 1.66 stock after a piece of the software in the SenseUI crashes, after a reboot its fine... other things that happen at the same time is inability to increase or decrease volume and sometimes connectivity issues for some internet enabled applications, but some apps still connect and work.

HTC really need to sort this SenseUI on WM out...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
Hmmm..I'll try using an older radio version like you suggested.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Fame123:
Hi Chimpsinties & Speed200

Many Thanks for your advice. I did read previous threads but bcz there was soo much info, wasn't sure which one is the best one at the mo.

But will try and test and see how I get on with other radio roms, bcz currently I'm having data reception problems and cannot connect to Internet even though can make calls and send msgs.

Chimpsinties you recommended 1.66 rom but have they solved the problems with sms in that rom? Meaning text going big in current msgs...etc?

Many Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] speed200:
I did not upgrade to the 1.66 rom because as i could saw there weren't many changes.

I´m still with 1.48 and reverted back to the 2.06 radio (stock one), for me this is the best option until HTC release´s a new rom.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chimpsinties:
I used the stock 1.66 for about a week and never noticed a problem with sms. The main thing is that they fixed the SMS stuck in outbox issue that was plaguing earlier releases.

I think it's usually best to have the latest ROM on your device, then you're not going round in circles trying to fix bugs that have already been spotted and fixed.

The best option of course is to try a cooked ROM by on the excellent chefs on XDA. :D You'll get 10x better support than you ever will from HTC and they usually run loads better and faster (less bloated with crap you don't need).

Try out Miri's v3.2 linked to in my signature with the latest 2.08 radio. You won't regret it. :cool:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] santoshkp:
Finally I have given My HD2 to HTC service...He said he will change motherboard as tring to flash the local rom is not happening..Will get to know the results in couple of days...Now back to topaz till my HD2 comes...:-)))And its still covered in warranty....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] antaed:
i have +24hrs now with this radio. i have performed a full battery reset last night. it's still early for my last word on this but i think i've got a keeper here. onernight drain is slightly higher (5% compared to 3-4% with the previous radio) but it seems to me that it is better overall, perhaps because it's much faster loading web pages, updating, etc. so it uses less juice.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] elburna:
One thing i still know from my Touch HD is: First copy the rilphone.dll to windows. Turn your phone of (not reset). Go into Bootloader. Flash new Radio.

Im not quiet sure from where exactly in this forum i got it but with my old Touch HD this was definately the way to go (got the info from one of the Pros around here).

Hi Chimpsinties & Speed200

Thanks for the advice, both of you have given different advice but both have you have given valid reasons to it. Now its up to me to choose which one I should take. Thankyou very much on these, really appreciated.

Chimpsinties one final question if were to go ahead with Miri, which one is the best...?

1. XtraLight

2. Sense 2.5 or

3. Sense 2.5 / 2011 from Topaz ROM (07-feb-10)

Many thanks again.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Starfury:
I have been noticing a warmer back cover (bottom right corner if you looking at the back of the phone - I would suggest thats the likely location of the CPU) using the 2.07.50.27 radio over the one that comes with 1.66 stock WWE ROM.

I use my phone on the way to work and on the way home and oddly enough it only seems to happen on the way home. Both journeys I do pretty much the same, I have music playing whilst either browsing/chatting or playing games. I noticed music plus Sudoku for 20minutes seemed to cause warmth at the back. Maybe the CPU is getting worked harder?

Is this likely to cause problems with CPU life as hot components dont last as long as warm/cool components
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mb:
I'd agree with that. Thinking of going back to 2.07 though, as the battery life on that was incredible.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] gianton:
same here and switched to 1.66 based roms with 2.06.51.07 radio. don't like stressing my device.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chimpsinties:
I really like Sense so I'd always personally go with Sense. It does everything I need and looks really nice too.

If you like an empty phone or like to fill it with stuff yourself (like SPB Shell for example) then go for the lite one.

The Topaz ROM is a bit older but has total landscape enabled for all screens in sense. I've not tried this but then again I don't often use landscape except to view web pages.

Head over to the ROM thread and ask questions there. This thread is about the Radio's really. :rolleyes:

Just to let you know;

On my Dutch (WWE) Leo combination:

Leo_RADIO_15.33.50.07U_2.07.50.27 (from Dutty's HG v1.9) TMOUS rilphone.dll 2.07

Leo_RADIO_15.34.50.07U_2.08.50.05 with TMOUS rilphone.dll 2.07 doesn't work either

Leo_RADIO_15.34.50.07U_2.08.50.05 with HTC rilphone.dll 1.67 doesn't work either

Leo_RADIO_15.31.50.07U_2.07.51.05 with HTC rilphone.dll 1.67 doesn't work either

Do NOT work. Phone only boots in Flight Mode (aka all wireless off). Strange enough, sometimes Bluetooth does work.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chimpsinties:
I think it should be noted somewhere that the rilphone.dll should only be installed if there is problems, not just because the Radio has been updated. More people seem to get problems after trying to install it than people who it helps.

Good tip about just deleting the rilphone.dll then the ROM replaces it with the default one. Maybe this should be put on the first post?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] htc12345:
..been running the 2.07 radio now for eight days.

three findings so far:

* 3G signal is much weaker then with earlier radios, even looses connection sometimes. at first it did not

* battery life is much better than before, 40 hrs use versus 28 hours use on earlier radios

* great call quality, much less loudness than before. being able to make handsfree calls and able to hold phone to ear. crackling in the speakers is gone.

my 2 cents.:)

Probably are due to a wrong flash or something.

I've tried all mentioned radio's on my Dutch HD2 with Miri's rom's and they do work fine for me.

Try flashing back to a stock rom, flash HSPL, flash a radio then flash a ROM and apply the correct rillphone.dll if not already in the ROM.

Flashing behaviour changed

I've noticed the following after flashing the 2.08 radio.

When I boot into the tri-color screen to flash the flashing or the cancellation begins right after I release either the power or the volume down button instead of needing to press either one of them. Did anyone have the same experience?

Grt. F.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] shufflez:
Thanks for the feedback koteskie! I started out with a stock ROM (always go back to one first), did Bepe's HSPL everytime. But i flash the ROM before the radio, could that be the problem?!

I started out flashing with a booted phone, which seemed to cause problems.

After that i flashed 2.07 radio from the bootloader without any rilphone.dll modifications (except maybe one that is in Dutty's v1.9), which worked (Bluetooth and 3G), but WiFi doesn't work on my Tele2 router. It is associated with the network, but doesn't get IP address.

Now flashing 2.08, keep you posted. EDIT: Still no WiFi, i guess this has nothing to do with my Radio version, but in the compatibility with WPA2-PSK AES?!

@Koteskie; I'm on KPN network, what Radio+rilphone version are you using? I kinda liked the Leo_RADIO_15.31.50.07U_2.07.51.05 with my Dutty's v1.3
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] michd2:
Tele2-router

The problem with the Tele2-router is very weird, because I've got an HD2 with the original 1.66 XXX dutch ROM and the original Radio but I'm able to connect to my own Tele2-router, also using WPA2-PSK AES.

But when I'm at my parents in law, I can't connect to their WIFI-router and they're also using the Tele2-router with WPA2-PSK AES. So I don't understand what the problem exactly is, could it have anything to do with hiding the accespoint or something like that? That's the only thing I can imagine causing trouble...you might wanna try that out..

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] frko:
KPN user as well :)

It shouldn't matter actually in which order the flashes occur but I prefer to do the RADIO flash before the ROM flash.

Not sure which encryption the HTC wifi supports though.

Not every RADIO comes with another rillphone.dll. This is only neccesary when the API of the RADIO changes. Just try the latest and greatest rilphone.dll available.

Perhaps the MTTY thread may help you fix some of the issues.

i have to add it took about 4 hours to get gps satelites working, i used the gps download app to download satalite database right away after flashing but still it took hours for it to get a fix, now its done its first class.
