Yes indeed, that is exactly what updating the radio is good for.

I don't think they are country/region specific,... I just used the latest one and my network signal is now much better!!!

All radio updates can be found in the sticky's at the top of the Hero-Development section,... Heres the link though,... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=563757

[Hero, G2 Touch General] pauliusba:
Don't want to start an additional thread for my [question], so this seems to be a good place to ask it :).

Where do these radio roms come from? How come HTC don't provide them for downloading in their site? Maybe it's simply not worth flashing them or they are actually not good in a sense that they are not tested properly and stuff?

Also, do the full ROM upgrades include a newer radio? So can we expect a new radio included in the upcoming official 2.1 ROM?

AND, what is the difference betwen EU and JU? Currently I have 63.18.55.06EU_6.35.06.18 and the newest one is 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26. This may sound super dumb, but maybe mine is like European one and the newest is Japanese or something? :D

Oh, and the last one (even though I'm sure there is an answer somewhere deep in these forums): how do you flash radio, in short?

Thanks :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ddotpatel:
I'm no pro, but I can attempt this,...

Where do these radio roms come from?...

I *think* the official updates from HTC come with updated radio ROMS,... Then some clever guys from either here or Modaco take 'dumps' of the update from the handset itself, then seperate the two.

Maybe it's simply not worth flashing them or they are actually not good in a sense that they are not tested properly and stuff?...

I take XDA to be a reliable source of information now,.... If you do your research you'l be fine. I made sure I read through the forums to make sure there are no known issues before upgrading my radio to the latest one.

Do the full ROM upgrades include a newer radio? So can we expect a new radio included in the upcoming official 2.1 ROM?...

Hmmmm,.... Good question. But no-one would know that yet.

Maybe mine is like European one and the newest is Japanese or something?...

I thought the exact same thing, but NO,... It doesn't mean anything,... Apparently it is just a reference used by HTC. I used the latest on my Orange UK branded Hero, which is now being used with an o2 SIM.

How do you flash radio, in short?...

To install a custom firmware ROM I had to update the recovery console. Once that is done, you just put the new radio onto your SD, load into the recovery console, then select update from SD,... DONE,... Easy as pie,... Piece of cake!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] 160bpm:

I have got my phone back from repair with the new official firmeware. So i created a goldcard to allow me to downgrade it which i did few problems but all done now.

I managed to load a custom recovery image using flashrec. So i tried to load custom roms i used 2 i tried modacos one and the ahome one.

they both installed and loaded up with the ahome one loads of apps failed like the android.phone so unable to get signal. modaco all apps forced closed. I don't think any roms will work fully for me.

and when i try to use fastboot i always get error:

downloading 'boot.img'... FAILED (remote: not allow)

Any help would be great.

Thank !
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kendong2:
i know i will be getting bashed for this, but: where is the relation to development?

now for all the bashers (and the op of course), please read the following:

try this: do a full wipe (all the items in the wipe menu), format your sdcard to fat32 only, then flash a rom. if it still doesn't work do the same again, but this time get recovery.log and logcat.

Canadian Carrier Rogers Official Twitter response:

http://twitter.com/RogersHelps/status/10927130422

Considering how late Rogers pushed Sense UI to the Magic (3 whole months late), expect other carriers to get it either before mid-year or mid-year at the latest.

If not I full expect this ROM to be flashable via goldcard on all current 32A Magics.

Mods move if you want since this isn't really development per say
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ruimoura:

Yes but this time this news is not through 3rd party sources. More legit.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alan090:
why goldcard>? if its perfect spl there is no unlock

for 2.1 its flashable on any rooted magic
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SilentTweak:
Yeah flashable now with broken drivers. Official release means official drivers and working OpenGL. And GoldCard means, people with perfect SPL (aka 911 Fix) will be able to root their phones finally. I'd be one of those people. When Robbers sent me my free HTC Magic+ it had the 911 fix on it pre-installed. Need to get out of here fast!

As for the news, this was released on their twitter a while ago. And after that, HTC confirmed it on their twitter.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xaueious:
Goldcard is needed only to bypass the carrier CID check for people who are on different carriers have a different CID. If you already have a Rogers phone, you will not likely need a goldcard to upgrade your ROM.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fregor:
Why bother? If HTC releases 2.1 for magic it will probably more stable than any custom rom out there? Any android version above 2.1 will probably require better hardware anyways, if you're looking at doing custom roms on your magic in the future..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] magicdroid:
Midyear seems about right, check the leaked HTC Hero Android 2.1 Update Schedule below:

Note that this is Hero only, and 2.1 arrives the earliest beginning next month (April). I'm betting the Magic release will not be much later.

Here's hoping for a 2010/06/04 release!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hedcayce:

The slovak an czech xT9 is already in your ROM. Im using WWE_2.53.405.5. First you need to make some registry changes:

HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\AvailableLanguages = 0109,010C,0107,0110,010A,011B,0105

HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ldbfiles\105 = CSlsUN_xt9.ldb

HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ldbfiles\11B = SKlsUN_xt9.ldb

HKLM\nls\SystemLCID = 41B

Then install attached cab.

I heard the OSKithcen is really good. Try to search for that.
[Touch2 ROM Development] glmedia:
yes osKitchen 1.25 works, but you have to modify two things:

1. edit \Resources\Tools\htcrt_devices.ini: (it seems to me that MEGA has to be upper case)

[Devices]

...

MEGA=1

...

...

[MEGA]

Experimental=0

ModelId=PB74*****

SignMaxChunkSize=64

RomSections=4, "0x200,SPL,524288,TRUE", "0x600,Splash,655360,FALSE", "0x301,Radio,23199744,TRUE", "0x400,OS,0,FALSE"

2. AFTER cooking first rom with these settings, DON'T flash it yet, you find a file ferom.htcrtproj in the \flash folder.

here change this line:

ModelId=MEGA*****

to this:

ModelId=PB74*****

now cook once again and you can flash the rom to mega with custom rom tool that comes with hspl.

i cooked with the sources from:

RUU_Mega_HTC_GER_1.28.407.4_Radio_Signed_61.41t.25.31_3.48.25.27

Hi,

I just got my HTC Legend in Hungary. This means that although android netively "speaks" german, the Sense UI overlaid in this regional version only knows English, Polish, Czech and Russian. Is there any way to replace this version of the Sense UI with a german one, as this is my native language? I reinstalled the official ROM (RUU_Legend_HTC_WWE_1.23.405.1_Radio_47.26.35.04_7.05.35.26L_release_120393), but Sense UI still stayed in the above languages.

Any ideas, anyone?:confused:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tatrai:
Hi

got the solution, works flawlessly on my legend: search "morelocale 2" in the market, install, there you go. Adds the natively included languages to Sense UI, so no patch. Seems great... here the article to it, from blog.clove.co.uk:

"Chinese and other languages for Android

3 Votes

With the upcoming release of the HTC Desire and the HTC Legend, we’ve had a lot of questions about language and keyboard settings for Android, particularly Chinese. With the ever expanding Android marketplace, there’s always an App available for to suit any needs you may have.

For a Chinese users, there is an application called Pinyin (Google Pinyin IME) released by Google. Pinyin supports stroke input, updates the soft keyboard layout and improves suggestions. Its free to downloaded and rated 4.5/5 stars on the Marketplace.

Although there are no Google releases, there are also some good Arabic keyboards available, such as Arabic Keyboard.

Android has several built-in language options. To change the locale (language) that your Android device works in:

On your Android device, under Settings>Locale & Text>Select Locale, you can choose the Language setting you would like your device to use. On some devices (such as the HTC Hero), the only setting available is English. This can be changed very easily using an App called MoreLocale 2, which can be downloaded completely free of charge from the Android Marketplace. Simply download the App and install, launch it, and select the language you would like your device to use. (Note: to change back to English, you will need to navigate through Settings>Locale & Text>Select Locale and select English).

Currently, the locales available on Android 1.5, 1.6 and 2.1 are:

Chinese, PRC , Chinese, Taiwan

Czech

Dutch, Netherlands & Belgium

English, Britain, US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore,

French, France, Belgium, Canada, Switzerland

German, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein

Italian, Italy, Switzerland

Japanese

Korean

Polish

Russian

Spanish

[HD2 General] wilsojer:
On my HD2, I have got the tsowen taskbar installed which is great, however when I'm charging the icon stops showing percentage charged and shows a flash symbol instead. I want to know how much it is charged withut aving to go into Power properties or take it off charge and wait until the symbol is updated. Is there a way to change that icon to ALWAYS show the charged percentage ?

On a wider note, is there a simple way to add and remove icons that are displayed in the taskbar ? In my old PocketPC days, I used to use a program called Wisbar which really simply allowed you to play with what was displayed or not. Is there anything equivalent for the new generation of WinMo phones ?

Thanks in advance,

Wisbar still exists and if you want to see how much power u have just tap the taskbar to show you the notification screen and there is a percentage battery indicator.

I'm guessing you wiped "SD:ext". Make sure your contacts and stuff are synced, then do a full wipe and I'm sure you'll be fine. You'll just have to set your phone up again.
[HD2 General] CompuNerd©:
Interesting findings, but why is it that only certain PAYG SIMs can achieve a data connection with the Leo?

For instance, H3G and T-Mobile have no probs, yet the likes of O2 and Voda just won't have it (All UK networks i refer to)

After a chat with an O2 'rep' i'm told it can't be done with this handset, only on contract, but i have a tendancy not to believe this....

Surely there's a tweak/way around this?!?! My main interest is getting the data connection on O2

Any suggestions or could anyone explain why?

Thanks :)
[HD2 General] Peteret:
I have PAYG or PAYT setup on my Leo. When first setting up (with a vodafone sim in my case) it will default to a contract plan, so you cant use data service and gives that annoying cannot connect warning popup.

You need to setup a new connection to allow this.

These are for Vodafone. For O2, I would search the O2 user forums for something similar.

Hi.

I had this problem once.

Terminate the opera process using task manager.

Find your opera cache directory, and delete all the files in it.

This will be under: windows/opera9/profile/cache.

Or possibly on your memory card if you have moved the cache.

I have only ever had the problem with the cache on the memory card.

I have since moved the cache back to it's normal location.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anarchyuk:
ignore that clown

Sounds like the cells in that area may be having some issues, call the network and advise they should be able to take some examples and check the metrica type reporting systems most networks use. This will show alarms triggered by the cell itself and allow the fault to be fixed or reset.

When ever you have an issue and it only happens in one area as its a radio network the issue wont be handset related. In very rare cases certain radio roms can have issues depending on equipment on the base station but its very rare.
