I believe I already have S-OFF.. I think I did this when I got my phone. How can I be

100% sure? If I already have S-OFF can I just plug in my mobile to my computer and just drag over the files without all steps mentioned? Im not really following what to do.. I have a radio.img file now.. before on my desire I just flashed zip :P

Can anyone confirm Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2 works on Orange UK handsets?

I'm running Android Revolution 2.0.1, but haven't upgraded the radio yet - not sure if it would work on all mobile networks.
[Desire HD General] dr4go:
Please share then your experiences with us. As I've received my HTC Desire HD a few days ago and started modding it today I can't say anything regarding a different experience.

I flashed today Revolution HD v2.0.3a with the 26.04.02.17 r2 radio. Everything seems to work fine - GPS fix almost instantly, with 3G and WLAN also no problems.
[Desire HD General] mesc4line:
Hi there,

I have a problem flashing the radio. The status bar stops moving while sending the file in bootloader. Tried it several times and sometimes it doesn't even start to move, sometimes it get's a littlebit further, but just not till the end.

Any ideas? Thx!
[Desire HD General] dr4go:
Be sure that you are Radio S-OFF + Super-CID and ENG S-OFF. Otherwise: How have you tried updating your radio?
[Desire HD General] chester_csr:
correct md5 checksum? try flash the another radio
[Desire HD General] mesc4line:
I meet all requirements I guess. I remember having the same problems while trying to get ENG Hboot. Just tried it several times till it somehow worked. I don't think it has something to do with the file itself. confused!

SOLVED: What can I say, same thing! Managed to flash it by trying hard and often :-)!
[Desire HD General] lefty83:
Right quick feedback on the r2 26.04.02.17 radio, to me it seemed to consume less battery in standby, had usually 15ma drain with gingerbread rom rc0, now with this radio I flashed this morning I had about 8ma during most of the day. Haven't noticed any imorovments in regards to signal strength.
[Desire HD General] bratfink:
Where did you manage to download the radio from, could you provide a link?
[Desire HD General] lefty83:
Sure mate download from http://www.megaupload.com/?d=22DC5PR4

This radio has been ripped from latest RUU (credit to whoever done it), there is a thread on this forum for it aswell
[Desire HD General] maddler:
hmm... looks like this is the M2, wasn't it supposed to be r2?

did I missed something? ;)

Cheers,

William
[Desire HD General] maddler:
How can you check battery mA/drain?

Thx

William
[Desire HD General] lefty83:
Yea its from r2 ruu, now its the same name and size as original radio but hash differs, so this version is different to the one that is floating around the forums.

As I said I felt to have less drain in standby with this version.
[Desire HD General] lefty83:
U can download current widget from the Market, add widget on homescreen and enable log to file.
[Desire HD General] maddler:
Ok, I wasn't sure since the baseband info looks the same. Just flashed, lets see...

EDIT: I'd say wifi signal has improved...
[Desire HD General] maddler:
Great, thank you!
[Desire HD General] SW7:
I'm using the radio from the latest R2 RUU and I'm on UK Orange, it works fine.
[Desire HD General] jords12:
I flashed the radio from the R2 RUU this morning, stock 1.72 rooted rom. I haven't done a scientific test but I think the battery life is much improved over the earlier radio (that seems to be different but have the same version no???). Really happy with it!

-- I hope HTC puts it out on a OTA soon, my father, mother and sister all have non-root DHD's so they will have to wait :)
[Desire HD General] exsky:

[Desire HD General] CitizenLee:
I'm sure I asked this question before but I can't find it so I'll ask again...

On the Hero you could simply flash a new radio as an update.zip from the recovery. Is there no way we can do it like this for the DHD? Would make life so much easier!
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
You do not have ENG S-OFF.

Cannot be done, at least not until someone develops a good update script for that.
[Desire HD General] CitizenLee:
That's something I would definitely donate some beer / pizza money towards :p
[Desire HD General] maddler:
You need engineering hboot in order to be able to flash your radio. You can refer to CyanogenMod howto (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.p...Flashing_the_Engineering_HBoot_.28Optional.29). BTW, simply googling for "fastboot FAILED (remote: not allowed)" could lead to unespected results ;)

Is anyone else running 3.30?

Is it "safe" to try it? Any risk to lose root?

Cheers

William
[Desire HD General] igor.tonky:
i am, works good for me.

flashing radios doesn't do anything to root or s-off, so it's safe to flash them as often as you like.
[Desire HD General] maddler:
Perfect. Thank you.

Let's try 3.30 then :)
[Desire HD General] TAGTRAUM:
maddler 03.30 drains more battery than 02.17R2.......I have downgraded from 03.30 today to 02.17R2...))))

So, what you think guys, which one it's better?

Radio_12.35a.60.140f_26.04.03.30_M

or

Radio_12.28g.60.140f_26.05.02.15_M_test

The first has the last (higher) protocol version, the second one has the last (higher) radio version...
[Desire HD General] maddler:

[Desire HD General] leith51:
3.30 radio is a big drain on battery get the radio from leedroid first post

[Desire HD General] Drakknar:
I'd suggest the 02.17_M2_SF
[Desire HD General] MariusOX:
I cant recive or send MMS :S could that be Radio related?
[Desire HD General] maddler:
As long as you can correctly establish data connection, I'd hardly believe it's radio related. IMHO

Checked config for your carrier?
[Desire HD General] BumAround:
Agree!

Under the settings > wireless & data network > APN (or something like that), u have to enter the correct values of "MMS proxy" and "MMS port" manually.
[Desire HD General] maddler:
Looks like r2 radio is working pretty well. After about 10hrs away from power plug battery still ~50%. Previously it was 30~40%.

Now i would like to update radio,can u point me to the right 26.04.02.17 radio file for this phone.thanx
[Desire HD General] dr4go:
You also need to be ENG S-OFF if you want to flash your radio. Also be sure, that you have Super CID for "easy downgrading".

Then use the following radio, imho it is the best at the moment: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10331808&postcount=8

i did use the

[Desire HD General] dr4go:
Boot into the bootloader (i.e. reboot your phone while pressing vol down key, it will vibrate, simply don't care and keep it pressed) and look at the first line: SHIP S-OFF means your just Radio S-OFF, it needs to say ENG S-OFF.

Flashed and tested for a couple of days now

4th January 2011: Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF - HTC WWE 1.72.405.3 R2

- Can confirm improved battery live

- Signal strength seems to be improved with 3 (provider) here in Austria

- Maybe subjective but sending sms is now VERY fast compared to old Radio :D
[Desire HD General] lukogriffioen:
I think I can confirm battery life to! I actually last till the end of the day now.

Also fast gps lock and wifi stable to!

Will test more tomorrow. Will not charge till I'm home and use it throughout the whole day.
[Desire HD General] Learnincurve:
I have a small problem that MIGHT be radio related, although there are too many variables to be sure. I apologise for the long description.

I use Navigon Mobile Navigator. The application doesn't support bluetooth natively and to get a2dp sound to route correctly to my car system I use car UI. This worked fine with Stock Froyo (2.2.0) and with AR < 1.9.3 with:

stock radio and

21st December 2010: Radio_12.35a.60.140f_26.04.03.30_M - HTC CHN 1.75.1400.4

Because of discussions about battery life, I later switched to radio:

4th January 2011: Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF - HTC WWE 1.72.405.3 R

With AR 1.9.3 rom (froyo 1.32/2.2.0) I couldn't get a GPS fix with this radio and didn't test car BT connectivity, but instead of changing back to a different radio I updated to AR 2.0.3 (froyo 1.72/2.2.1) rom. The GPS issue was solved but I had two problems with BT connectivity:

1. The phone wouldn't initialize a a2dp connection to the car - I can't completely remember now, but I think starting the connection from the car, then playing music on the phone was ok.

2. The navigon Software could be made to send sound over lower quality sco but not initialize the connection, so I couldn't listen to the car radio, and have the phone interrupt to give turn-by-turn instructions.

I tried changing to radio 17th December 2010: Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2 - Orange ES 1.75.75.2 / HTC WWE 1.72.405.3, same problems.

Next step was to change the

/system/etc/firmware/BCM4329B1_002.002.023.0511.0538.hcd

file to this fw file from cyanogen/gingerbread

Using this file and the R1 26.04.02.17_M2 radio, I was now back to the original behaviour of the navigator software - audio is routed to a2dp and the phone's internal speaker at the same time - also with the car UI app which had previously fixed this.

I have now upgraded the radio again to

4th January 2011: Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF - HTC WWE 1.72.405.3 R2

still with the gingerbread fw file and initial tests have given me no a2dp audio.

I'd really like to know if anyone has had similar problems with BT audio, and if they have a 2.2.1 rom, radio and FW combination which works 100%.

Many thanks for your patience in reading this and for any advice.

Cheers!

Hi and Thanks Drakknar for these radio ROMS

Thanks Brolee93 (merci)

Does the Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF appears as ****_M2_SF in the software informations ?

I flashed it and it still shows 12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2 (without SF)

By Built number says : 1.72.405.3 CL296490 release-keys

is it normal or did I do smthing wrong ?

the img I downloaded for Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF

[Desire HD General] Drakknar:
As far as I know Android Revolution doesn't have any radio included. You can check your radio version by going to "Impostazioni" -> "Info sul telefono" -> "Versione banda di base".

The test radio isn't the latest available as it was released about one month ago: the latest is the Orange ES/HTC WWE Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2

If you should want to flash a new radio, please read the disclaimer section and be aware that flashing it may brick your device if something goes wrong and you may not be able to flash a previous radio if the new one isn't performing properly.

[Desire HD General] Mogster:
26.04.02.17 is the latest one. It's the December link on the first page of this thread, and seems to be a bit snappier. Some users are reporting improved battery life with it too, although I haven't noticed much difference.

I'd advise you to make sure you have Radio S-Off (not just HBOOT S-Off) before upgrading though, as the upgrade disables the ability to do so using the current technique.
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
May disable the ability to downgrade the radio, I and others on XDA and cyanogenmod forums are still able to downgrade the radio after flashing the most recent radio
[Desire HD General] Mogster:
Yeah, I was one of them. ;)

That's why it's a good idea to get radio S-Off before flashing the upgrade. That way you should definitely allow you to downgrade.

Can you please give us that new rom?!?!

It's just a number bump over 1.72 or does it have any real updates over 1.72??

Of course you can extract just the radio part.

Just run the exe, and then go to C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Local\Temp\ and search for rom.zip

Unzip it and you'll have radio.img...

But please, give us the complete rom!!! please!!!

Accu power was never really big so maybe it really was accu related - or just a coincidence
