Well then! That impresses me both positively and negatively. Positively because it seems like a good radio firmware might help me upgrade my phone without spending money! Negatively because HTC is selling a phone with 802.11n support without mentioning anything and they do not release a radio firmware to handle it. That reminds me of LG TV sets. The european LH3000 models cannot play movies from a USB stick plugged into the USB port. The LH5000 can. Both models have the same hardware platform. With a special remote control you can make the LH3000 models play the movies! But unless you browse the internet in a quest for information, you don't know anything, you can't improve the TV set performances! Back to the smartphones, fortunately, there is this XDA community and others! Sincere thanks!
[Desire General] jsel:
It has nothing to do with the radio firmware, as I said before. It depends on the kernel you are running on.
[Desire General] carlos67:
Same here. My Samsung LE46C650 LCD tv does not support PVR recording function out-of-the-box. However, after browsing the net, found out that simply going into the "hidden secret service menu" the function can be turned on and VOILA I now have a fully functional PVR in my telly:D. It seems that these days hardware vendors are building fully featured hardware but restricting it via software (turning off features deliberately) for the lesser expensive models.;)

Apologies for going off topic :o

Does anybody know where I can find the latest radio for desire? 32.54.... or something like that. Thanks.
[Desire General] bertles86:
Hi folks,

I'm running Baseband version: 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27 and experience massively fluctuating signal strength, frequently with no bars at all indoors or outdoors makes little difference. My 3G signal in Central London is minimal and it frequently moves onto H.

Are there any newer radios out there which could improve this for me?
[Desire General] andQlimax:
Again, the latest radio is 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17 here

Download and flash just the radio..Im currently using that and seems to have great signal and great battery life
[Desire General] Nuntius:
Hi,

I'm trying to flash this radio but I got this message: "Amend scripting is no longer supported" (I'm using ClockworkMod Recovery 3.0.0.5)

Installation aborted.

Any idea? Android Flasher isn't working either!
[Desire General] andQlimax:
Do some research and u will understand..The amend script (update-script) are not supported anymore on the new recovery 3.x. Just the new edify script (updater-script) are supported.

Anyway u can flash the radio manually. Extract the radio.img from the zip and do this command on fastboot mode:

fastboot flash radio radio.img

That should work..I dont take any responsabilities..Do some research
[Desire General] Nuntius:
Done! I just flashed the latest radio (the one of your post) and it worked. Thanks again!

Thanks for this thread, I have just flashed 32.37.00.32U_4.06.00.16_2 and will test out phone calls on richardtrip's defrost froyo rom ... you never know it may resolve the echo problem?? Edit: It doesn't fix the echo..

[Desire General] Arthur Hucksake:
I did have radio 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2 installed but found under battery usage Android system was stuck at like 95%... wtf! Battery drain was terrible.

Gone back to the old 32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11, reception not quite asgood but now my cell standby is 46% and phone idle is 46%, which is what it should be.

Can anyone who has the latest 32.37.00 confirm this has been fixed?
[Desire General] raz2133:
I am using the 4.06.00.02_2 radio and do not have this problem. It has been about 14 hours since I recharged, the battery is at 94% and 'battery use' is showing...

Cell Standby 48%

Phone Idle 49%

Android System 3%

Admittedly the phone has had very little use since coming off the charger, but the figures look about right to me.

My phone is currently running the standard 1.21.405.2 (unrooted) ROM.

Re: [RADIO] HTC Desire Stock Radios [LATEST 32.37.00.32U_4.06.00.16_2] [12/06/10]

Orange simlock on the latest radio guys! Im over wifi atm...

Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[Desire General] crowstar:
I have a sim-code, so if I update the radio, use the sim code again, will I be in the clear?
[Desire General] MarvinFS:
i had noticeably worth reception with latest 4.06 so i flashed back the original just as you are and now i wonder if it's influencing the battery drain anyhow
[Desire General] DashingGentleman:
I noticed the newest radio (32.37.xx) dropping signal and draining battery (~10% an hour in standby with WiFi on). Have just gone back to 32.30 to see what happens.

Wondering if it's possible a combination of richardtip's custom kernel + new radio image that causes battery drain. Isn't the 8mb RAM hack using some memory space that was reserved for the radio but not in use. Could it be that the new radios try and do something with that memory? (Just speculating)
[Desire General] Arthur Hucksake:
Noticed something else, gone to the newest radio and now my mobile data connection is permanently showing the HSPDA icon. Small H is at the top and never goes to 3G when not in use. Very weird!

Battery life seems ok so far!
[Desire General] Azurael:
I don't think so... I've been running 32.37.00.32 since it first appeared, and not had battery life issues although I'm running a kernel with the 8MB ram hack (or was, not sure if Kali's fixed version retains it.)

I suspect it may be network specific, if my memory of Hermes radio updates serves me correctly :p Hopefully none of these updates are going to fry our radios!
[Desire General] qubz:
Thanks AdamG for the radio's, just installed the most recent one to work with richardtrips 0.9b ROM. Just my 2 cents, but you guys having trouble flashing should be using fake-flash, it reduces the chance of bricking cause you don't have to use a usb to run the adb commands ;) much easier
[Desire General] MojUk:
Whats the general feeling re: the latest radio? Flash or not?

Re: [RADIO] HTC Desire Stock Radios [LATEST 32.37.00.32U_4.06.00.16_2] [12/06/10]

Hi there,

I flashed 4.06.00.16_2 on my pays 1.2 rom using fake flash. Had no problems during flash/boot process.

Former radio was ...00.02_2.

Reception seems to be the same.

I will report about battery drain improvements or deterioration

when if have tested a few days.

what's the common opinion about improvements by this new radio by now?

[Desire General] kayceejayh:
Ran the 32.37.00.32U_4.06.00.16_2 Radio all day yesterday on an Orange handset (which has been UNlocked!), and battery life seemed very good, as did reception. HTH someone!

[Desire General] .Hodgy.:
what about those sim locked to T-Mobile?
[Desire General] Large Hadron:
H is better than 3G, so I'd not complain about that. ;)

Some of it could be network - my brother works in central London and reckons that both Orange and O2 are c**p for 3G coverage (he doesn't own a desire either, so it's not limited to that handset).

Newer doesn't always mean better - some people find that an older radio works better for them. Only newer one I know of is the 32.54 one discussed a few pages back.

Hello all.

Thanks for the work, adamg (as well as the awesome Oxygen 2).

Was wondering if one could (or even possible) to post the change logs of different radios?

Would be great to see what's changed.

I'm running 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 -- Do you reckon I need to update (im only running this radio because Im too scared to upgrade due to the fact that one of the later versions ate my battery like a hungry bat@!!)

any reasons/benefits to update to

There are no specific reason's , but latest radio's can bring improvements like signal strength , battery life etc.

I tried the latest 32.54.x.x and its working perfectly. No issues till now.
[Desire General] KennyDumah:
Will this Radio work with each Provider?

Or will it lock my Phone when I flash it?

Because I haven't Internet yet.

Only via mobile phone. :/

Pls help :)

Edit: I flashed it successfully :)

On older phones I had problems with those things @.@

That's why I'm so carefully. :o
[Desire General] juicebox666:
I'm running 32.54 and had to dig up a corresponding RIL because Oxygen has a different default radio. It's been solid with great signal in WiFi and mobile. No dropping of signal (as long as I turn on WiFi and mobile data from the settings menu). Will report back on battery life in a few days.
[Desire General] Hilarium:
so i can just flash a radio like i would with a rom? i'm guessing i don't need wipe/factory reset? and will updating radios wipe my device?
[Desire General] ukanth:
Yes. Just flash it via CWM/recovery. You don't need to wipe or reset and It will not wipe.

You can check the radio version in settings>about phone>Software Version>Baseband version.
[Desire General] AlxMAX:
There were people reporting they lost the APN settings when they woke the phone from standby. Are those problems directly related to the new radio firmware? If so, is there any solution?
[Desire General] jsel:
I think HTC doesn't post their changelogs anywhere, and these radios are ripped off from HTC's official roms.
[Desire General] craoul:
Any RIL for latest Radio? With the latest radio sometimes I loose signal completely and I have to enter the pin again. Using Oxygen Rom.
[Desire General] Mitchou73:

No battery drain, good signal et good stability.

Thx again Adam ^^
[Desire General] AlxMAX:
juicebox666 said earlier in his message that (I quote) his phone was running 32.54 and he had to dig up a corresponding RIL because Oxygen has a different default radio. Later Edit: I would like to know what radio features Oxygen uses that it requires a specific radio firmware.

That message should definitely go to the HTC Desire Wiki. Later Edit: I have added a line in the HTC Desire XDA Wiki with a link to this thread and to the RIL thread. That way, we might find the information easier (I hope).

Didn't work out that well for me. Everything works, but i get a constant ~130mA drain on the battery on 3G, which would kill my battery in no time. Reverted back to 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27 :/

[Desire General] dk.baxter:
I flashed to the latest radio (32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17), and then flashed to the radio including the RIL (32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_RIL) because this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=902752) says the RIL works with that latest radio.. And I'm having some problems...

I have found that I don't receive texts for some time after they were sent.. If I make a phonecall, as soon as it connects I get thru (all at once) any text messages that have not yet been delivered to me, including texts that inform me of missed calls (and I know my phone didn't ring at all for those calls, which is another problem)..

I have also experienced not being able to connect when calling other mobiles. I have tested this by calling another mobile I'm holding in my hand, it doesnt ring and my Desire will just end the call..

Are these a radio problem, should I flash back to a previous version? Or is it some other kind of problem??

Thanks for your help, in advance!

Edit: Just to clarify, this doesn't happen every time... I can connect on outgoing calls and I do sometimes receive texts at the right time (i.e. when they are sent!) but it does seem to be rather odd for a phone to not being able to make phone calls or receive texts..
[Desire General] andQlimax:
U missed the most importand information..What rom are u using??

Sorry, I'm using StarBurst 1.1.7, so not a AOSP rom..

[Desire General] randomelements:
So, we used to have a lot of issues with locked Orange Desires and simlocking when upgrading the radio. Now, it appears that the 5.09 radios didn't cause simlock and I've seen reference to the 5.11.05.14 also not causing it.

Do we have a definitive list of "safe" radios for Orange Desires or are we now okay with any 5.xx.xx.xx radio that's 5.09 or newer?

(yes I know I can unlock for about £9 on eBay but if I don't have to I'd rather save the cash and buy a couple of apps)
