Ever since I bought my Desire, I had problems with my mobile data connection freezes occasionally, and also phone calls/ sms.. totally dead.

The symptom was that the "upload" arrow lit up, but then nothing happened for about a minute.. this happened regardless of signal strength.. I have been pretty sure that the radio firmware was the thief all along since I recognized the symptom from an other dev. phone..

Now with the latest radio, it seems that its finally gone.. haven't had that problem in 3 hours, before it happened every 10 minutes or so... hope this is case closed for my biggest problem with Desire..

The problems did come bAck :'(

Don't know why it took so long.. connection lasted very long though
[Desire General] edgeball:
Is there a Changelog for all the different radios?
[Desire General] Haxxler:
Just flashed the new radio and so far i cant tell any differents but the last days i had some issues with connection and it went dead for couple of minutes. In a few days i can tell if i still got the problems. I hope not ^^
[Desire General] stm999999999:
JFTR: I use this new one and there is no problem with channel 13 wifis (as somebody mentioned if for the last radio version)
[Desire General] Mountainjew:
Working fine on Neophyte 1.8 :D
[Desire General] cq.dude:
Just a suggestion : Might it be possible to note which area of the world each radio is intended for? Like, this last one comes from OTA update for what region? It might help people decide, and possibly explain strange behaviors some experience.

For example, the last one (.30_2) didn't work well for me ... phone kept switching back and forth bet wifi and 3g, with middling phone signal at all time .. so I finally reverted to 20. Will see what ppl say about this latest one. Unfortunately, not many ppl in my neck of the woods testing these radios... :/

wtf? another?!?!?!?

flashed the previous one yesterday late afternoon...
[Desire General] atomfix:
Downloaded and works fine. Works even better than the previous one as in signal wise
[Desire General] Fightspit:
Another new radio :D

Edit: Check my signature now ;)
[Desire General] Zeljko1234:
Could you please take a look of battery life with this radio? Every day new radio? It's look like that previously has a bug.
[Desire General] erto90:
the 32.46 one has,imho, a battery problem,gone from 100% to 95% in 1h ( onlly 2G,no background data no wifi,no mobile net,STANDBY)

Is the new radio better in these terms?
[Desire General] wmfreak:
I definitely prefer this radio over .30. the .20 has been the best so far for me but after half a day of testing the .17 one I like it!
[Desire General] i6bazar:
Thanks for the information :)
[Desire General] cnic:
Adb still does not find the device.

If I start the phone normally and plug in the usb, "adb-windows devices" reports it.

But if I shut it down, remove USB cable, reboot in recovery mode, plug in USB adb cannot see it and hence runme.bat does not work. WTF ?

Any ideas ?
[Desire General] i6bazar:
By the way, has anyone bricked its phone using a powered USB Hub ?
[Desire General] angeloc92:
try to connect when in recovery, then go to device manager; you will see "adb" as unrecognized device, update drivers using the one in htc sync. This way adb should find it and push files correctly
[Desire General] antz88c:
nothing for mac and unrooted desire users?

how to flash this one?
[Desire General] asci:
I am using 4.06.00.16_2 on MCR r3 A2SD+ uvoc kernel v.11 and battery life is strongly improved!
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Put the latest radio on last night, running MCRr3 and it seems better battery wise than the 4.06.00.02_2 radio but will know more by this evening...using a generic, unbranded phone and don't appear to have any SIM lock issues AFAIK
[Desire General] i6bazar:
you used the radio file 4.06.00.16_2 provided at the beginnig of this thread ?
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Yes I did...
[Desire General] adi90:
impossible to flash when usb bricked ...
[Desire General] Bengaal:
Sorry for my question......But I have to be sure.

Can I flash a new Radio WITHOUT a wipe??????:confused:
[Desire General] i6bazar:
Can the radio flash produce an USBBrick ?
[Desire General] AdamG:
you do not need to wipe to flash a new radio
[Desire General] Pyr0x64:
Seems that there is always a chance of bricking the Desire, no matter what you are flashing
[Desire General] Whiler:
Hidden SSID?

Hi,

Thanks for the radio...

I installed it and it works perfectly.

I also check if SSID must still be broadcasted to connect... the answer is YES... (if hidden, no connection)

I wanna know if it's plan to create radios which support Hidden SSID? :confused:

Or this is not possible.. this will use much more battery, ...

I don't have a good knowledge regarding radios, but I'd like to hide my SSID from my neighbours... (even if it's protected...)

Cheers,

W.
[Desire General] knights191:
How do you know when you have a bricked USB ?

Because I cannot seem to find my device.. in windows > system it shows HTC Android Phone USB Device in Disk Drivers.
[Desire General] AdamG:
Without getting into this issue too much, there is no need to hide your SSID and it is easy enough to find out the name of a hidden SSID, but this problem is down to Android and not the radio.

This may be of some help http://en.androidwiki.com/wiki/Enabling_Hidden_SSID_Hack.
[Desire General] acolwill:
Just to let people know.

Latest radio will simlock an Orange branded Desire.
[Desire General] Smith2001:
my god i am a complete noob at this Andriod stuff. Can use my HD2 great but this is brand new to me.

I really want to update to the new radio to see if it improves the phone in my low signal area. I have downloaded the SDK and ticked the box to download and install the drivers, followed the guide on post 18 and once in the recovery screen nothing happens once i run the script. It doesn't even try to install itself or give me the option of searching for the drivers Any ideas anyone ??

i'm on windows 7 and put the extracted radio zip contents onto the SD card root.
[Desire General] sruon:
Try to HTC Sync your phone when on Android while plugged through USB, it should install some drivers (or better yet, did you even install HTC Sync?)
[Desire General] wmfreak:
what? .23 a new one is out? gotta try this one too!!!
[Desire General] Peikko:
somebody know where this new radio was extracted?
[Desire General] ourfear:
it's from HongKong OTA
[Desire General] Peikko:
Should I actually care from which country this radio comes from? Or doesn't it matter for the radio?
[Desire General] Lennyuk:
My upload and download speeds have increased, obviously way too soon to know of any battery improvements, but 720p seems nice and smooth too.

Works fine on my Simlocked (as far as I know) Orange UK desire
[Desire General] soppie:
too...many....radios.......must....resist....flash,

the 23 and 17 one have the exact same filesize, is there difference?
[Desire General] andycted:
I've tried the last two that came out in the last two days. No change whatsoever apparently. Still -81 dbm 16 asu on the desk.

Video recording is still the same.
[Desire General] STONEMC:
I tried the 32.46.00.32U_5.10.05.17_2 Radio version here near Munich, Germany one hour ago. But I had problems with the connection....not very stable. It jumped from 1 to 3 bars and no bar.

So I went back to 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 and all is fine. I'm Using LeeDroid V2.0a. But the 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04 is the best one for battery life. I only have a bit slower Internet connection....

Oh....tryed the new one 32.47.00.32U_5.10.05.23....seems to be better than 32.46.00.32U_5.10.05.17_2.
[Desire General] Mystenes:
newest 32.46.00.32U_5.10.05.17_2 has a very poor reception. unstable gsm quality

32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 as for now unbeatable quality and speed.

Tried the .17 a good half day today, mobile data downloading and uploading seems to be slightly faster than .30. No drop in signal bars. Seems good.

Trying out the newer .23 now.

Someone pointed out the file size is the same. Anybody can comment on that?
[Desire General] :
nee radio is best than 5.09.30_2 ?
[Desire General] EddyOS:
WiFi on .23 connects a LOT quicker than before...

[Desire General] systemcrash:
Could be my memory card going flaky. But weird that one ROM gives me the FAT problems...
[Desire General] kai84m:
Please describe exactly how you flashed the radio!

Did you boot your recovery

than flashed the radio

- found new radio on sd card, click, install, please reboot, select reboot

- I saw android with arrow on black screen

- phone rebooted and now it's on white screen with green HTC logo
[Desire General] kai84m:
Please tell us if the flash was successful and if just the Rom doesnt boot of if the flash of the radio failed somehow.

For me it worked as every radio update with modaco r8 - no problems!

Normally there shouldnt be any problem if dont dare to take out the battery while the radio flash is in progress!
[Desire General] sparkpanzer:
Dear,

regarding me, i do the following:

backup file with titanuim

format the sd card, them swap 32, ext 1024, upgrade ext2 to 3, upgrade ext3 to 4

wipe every thing (factory, sd card, cash, battery, rotate, etc...)

please for your advice and thanx for the support
[Desire General] kai84m:
Imho the flash of the radio image was successful. But somehow the recovery seems to hang, i guees because after the steps you mentioned the phone should boot into recovery again.
[Desire General] samuellei:
Just flashed the newest radio "5.23" on OD 4 with Gefrost theme and no problem.
[Desire General] Zeljko1234:
No, it's not my first time to flash radio. After flashing radio ClockworkMod Recover ask me to reboot from menu and write new radio what I did. After that I saw android with arrow on black screen and usually desire will boot in OS. What should I do? If radio is written can I pool battery out?

Edit: I was brave enough to pool batter out. Tried to turn on, successfully, in a moment saw android with arrow on black screen, rebooted and boot in OS :) I started this procedure with 52% of battery, now only 25% left. Obviously Desire did something during last almost one hour.

Edit2: Thanks kai84m for help :)

What is the best radio with best battery performance?

32.46.00.32U_5.10.05.17_2 have very bad performance!!!
[Desire General] Latty:
Don't worry, happened to mine too. Actually, I believe it's just a problem with the recovery. Restarted with voldown+opticalbutton+powerbutton and it continued on the process fine
[Desire General] Zeljko1234:
It's good to know but as you can read I solved the problem with less sophisticated method :)
[Desire General] sparkpanzer:
im again partition the sd card, swap 0, ext 512, then upgrade 2 to 3, 3 to 4

then flash only pays rom.

still the problem happen. it is finifh the flashing normally, and when i restar the device stick with the white screen!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Desire General] reddeath:
Please tell me how do you partition and how do you upgrade EXT versions :)
[Desire General] quake2005:
to me this one has very good battery performance!
[Desire General] GANJDROID:
So is it not safe to flash the new radio?
[Desire General] Zeljko1234:

[Desire General] GANJDROID:
A type of recovery? Which one is giving issues?
[Desire General] reddeath:
32.47.00.32_5.10.05.23 is awesome.

I did a 3G speed test on stock 2.1 android. It maxed at 3,3 Mbit/s. After I flashed custom roms and newer radios it dropped to 1,2 Mbit/s. But finally with this radio it doubled with up to 2,5 Mbit/s. Wifi boosted a bit till almost 9,5 Mbit/s but that is surely limited by my internet speed at home.
[Desire General] cCeT:
i installed the latest radio but there is no radio on my desire anymore.
[Desire General] horst0815:
i'm using psychosis 5.0 rom, and tried the 32.47.00.32_5.10.05.23 radio tonight. copied to sd, flashed via clockwork recovery. it states, that there's an error at line 2 of the radio.img, and the installation is aborted. so no radio can be flashed. after that, my sd card got mounted read-only. i tried the rapidshare, hotlink and megaupload link and everytime, the crc sum is 88A56076, which is correct i guess. can anyone post there crc sum, just to be sure?

so the big question is: why the hell do i get this error at line 2? i'm not that experienced to look for myself what could be the error at line 2, but i guess it's only me having this error, since no one else reported it so far ~narf~
[Desire General] Exlo:
Used RomManager to flash the new one.

Works great on MoDaCo r8:-)

Same thing happened to mine but I pulled the battery off after waiting for the HTC logo with white screen for more than five minutes and boots the phone as normal.

How do you guys flash using ROM manager? choose install ROM? cuz i cant see install radio~~

and a quick Q here, can i just flash the radio while i'm away? or do i need to plug in the charger too? I always use the charger everytime i flash a radio, just i think that i would ask since i'm away from the charger and bored~~
[Desire General] thecompany:
Reboot in recovery mode (hold down volume down button and power on), there you can flash your radio.
[Desire General] LuffyPSP:
about the charger thing? yeah i always use the recovery, but wondering the ROM manager method~~
[Desire General] accel24:
just flash radio.zip "install rom" in rom manager - same thing you did with flashing the rom. hope it helps.
[Desire General] Marinelli.Tv:

Latest radio with PaYs 2.0 ROM

Flashed latest HTC Desire radio, "32.47.00.32_5.10.05.23" on PaYs 2.0 ROM. Easy update from Recovery, no problems whatsoever.

Video playback now extremely good with nicely saturated colors and very stable playback. (I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the radio, but I'm happy nonetheless.)

3G solid. Portable Wi-Fi hotspot very very strong. Wi-Fi signal xlnt.

Battery life to be determined.

So far so good.

Thanks very much for the update AdamG, much appreciated! ;)
[Desire General] TieT:
Download rom manager

Open it

Select flash clockwork recovery

wait till it downloads

After this select reboot into recovery

Wait till it boots into recovery then select flash zip file from sd and select your file ;)

if you have more questions just ask
[Desire General] casca:
Hey guys, I've noticed that in this radio and i think the other two before, if the wifi is connected for a long time, when i walk away from the wifi hotspot, the 3g connection doesn't kick in automatically...i have to disable 3g internet connection and enable it manually and it will then connect immediately.

Anyone else has this problem?

I'm now thinking that I started noticing this issue after installing Y5 battery saver (and the app wasn't working properly on froyo), but i've uninstalled it already...can there be some sort of remains from the app doing this?

anyone else has this problem?

tks
[Desire General] LuffyPSP:
i did it with recovery. no problem at all! thanks for the help tho..:D

Holy crap, every day a new radio... where are they all coming from? :confused:
[Desire General] cyron_at:
..from htc ;-)
[Desire General] casca:
i have evertything working fine like you guys, the only issue is what i've said, after using the wifi for a while, when i walk away from the router the 3g doesn't kick in. i have to turn the 3g internet off and then on again so it will work...

gonna use the nandroid to check it out
[Desire General] bemymonkey:
Kind of obvious :p... but how are they released? With new Froyo OTAs for different regions? As separate downloadable packages? Is someone from inside HTC leaking internal builds of the radios? Hell, what're they all built for?
[Desire General] casca:
before restoring the nandroid, just tried out something else...intalled tha app agai, disabled wifi and 3g, disabled the app itself...forced stoped it, clean the data from the app through the froyo uninstaller, not the "uninstaller" app from the market and gonna test it now...i think there were some files not being removed from the phone when using the "uninstaller" app.
[Desire General] twist1234:
Okay with T-mobile UK branded?
[Desire General] Lennyuk:
Firstly is there really need to do that with your post? It is just not good forum etiquette.

Secondly why not flash and see, the worst that will happen is your phone will say it is "sim locked" in which case you can then flash the radio you were already on, back.

Thirdly, OrangeUK afaik is the only network that "sim locks" some radio's
[Desire General] Piercy0812:
okay with vodafone branded?

Edit: Appologies to the original poster. I dont like newbie bashing and your question was a fair one :) But why the bright red dude? :)

Again, thanks for the help.

you always get a reply on xda, otherwise use SEARCH that can get you a long way these days !

Please, dont make me lol. I know how to use search, its nice for someone to kindly reply though to a specific query.

this question has been asked more then 10 times in this thread only and has been answered accordingly.

maybe read up ?
[Desire General] twist1234:
I went back a few pages, couldnt find an answer specific to this release. Id rather be sure than brick my phone, someone replied and it wasnt you. Why you carrying on like a little girl when someone has already replied to the original question?! I will try in future as poster stated and refrain from using giant red copy but this really has nothing to do with you.
[Desire General] TieT:
then why do you keep pulling me back in your answers ?

did i call you a noob for not knowing the answer ?

NO, so keep your insult to your own !

P.S. It doesn't make it safer when you ask if its ok !

i hope you realize that, every flash has a potential danger !
[Desire General] Zeljko1234:
Probably because he's tired of stupid same question day after day. Don't you guys can do it something by yourself? Or you must ask for every f*cking things you may try?

Because of you, thread became long and hard to read and then guys like you say: "Thread is too long to read, could someone answer my question?" Question what is already answered many times in the same thread.
[Desire General] twist1234:
No, but did I call you a k**b for your sarcasm. Lets just stick to the topic now.

No question mark as per your above post.

Zeljko1234 - Im glad you have enough money to replace an expensive phone, others dont. How do I know if HTC slipped something into this release that could brick my phone, better to ask than be a fool. I also understand the annoyance of people posting the same thing all the time but I couldnt find a answer specific to the version.
