I am trying to get TNT .20273 working on my G4, but my radio version is 2.30.11 and I heard this is why its not working correctly. I downloaded the T-Mobile 2.19.11, but I have Cingular...will this make a difference? Do I flash this like any other ROM? Do I need to flash this before or after I flash a new ROM?
Radio Rom is independent of any Rom/OS,it can be flashed to any device version or Rom/OS working on the phone,it has its own protocols (GSM) and doesn't include any IPL/SPL (Bootloaders) so it can easily and safely be flashed to any wizard device.
Secondly,as you have a G4 device and its CID locked,it can not be upgraded to any wm6 rom like TNT,unless you either upgrade through SoftSPL or HardSPL.
Thirdly,where have you heard,since you have radio version is 2.30.11 and its cause for not getting the phone upgraded to TNT Rom ? As I said above,Radio Rom has got nothing to do with ROM/OS.Yes! you can flash Radio Rom 2.19.11,it doesn't matter if you have a Cingular.
Wm6 Roms like TNT will certainly flash regardless of which version of Radio Rom you have at the present
Hi guys,
This forums are just great!
Is there any "recommended" radio version? I've heard there are some old ones but I just wonder if upgrading it would really make any difference about the phone's reception.
I've noticed there are now two ways to flash new ROMs, hard and soft SLP, which one is best? My phone is already SIM unlocked but I want to load Slim Diamond WM 6.1.
Thanks in advance for your comments and help.
Well I got TNT .20273 "working", but I was always getting missed calls and texts and whenever I would soft reset I would get like 10 cannot load blah blah file and I read somewere it was because the radio version I had. Plus I heard 2.19.11 was the best with no dropped calls and such.

First determine which version is your phone,G3 or G4,its very important,coz method for flashing a rom is altogether different for both the devices.
HardSPL and SoftSPL are solely meant to flash a G4 device and shud not be done for a G3 phone,likewise CID unlocking method for a G3 phone,through lokiwiz02b or WST_4.2.2 Tool, shud not be carried out on a G4 device.
You need to do alot of reading to understand all these methods,So..... get going!!! or else you might end up 'Bricking" your phone

ok so you said that. i'd like to say, i have a g3 with radio 02.25.11 and i'm fixin to use a multitude of different roms i've found here .. some with touch flow, others are this and that. but none of them say anything about radio roms or compatibility or dropped call count. so my question to you is, will this radio rom i have make a difference? am i going to have to change radio roms or no?
This is the G4 subforum
Radio 2.19.11 is recommended.
Thanks a lot zabardast_1!
I did the reading and the upgrade. Evertyhing went great and my wizard is now running WM 6.1 and working great.
I do have a follow up question though. I noticed there are different ROMs and the today screen looks different (the way the clock is shown, the icons available, etc).
Is there any way to change the way things look without changing the ROM?
Thanks again!
I know i am sure I am going to get flamed for this.
But i have searched and searched and can not find a solution.
I have the following currently installed
Rom Version dcd 2 Beta WM6 (Tried others but various things wont work)
Radio Version 3.27.00
SPL 2.40.Olipro
I would like to downgrade to Stock NewZealand Telecom WM5 or any WM5
if that whats needed.
I have a custom application for work that will not run on WM6
Would be nice to keep the GPS function if possible.
So can please somebody post the proccess i need to follow to achieve this.
Many thanks
John

Hi All
I have managed to downgrade my Titan.
Make sure you have SPL-2.40.Olipro as your bootloader
Then using SD card method flash this DCD ftp://up.ppcgeeks.com/Titan/Users/ImCoKeMaN/roms/TNZ_StockWM5_RUU_signed.nbh
This will give you a device that gets stuck after the 2nd spladsh screen.
Then flash this Radio ftp://xda:[email protected]/Titan/Radio_Roms/titan_2.13_CDMA.rar
Reboot
All sorted
John
Does this procedure also downgrades the radio rom?
When you did the downgrade, were you coming from a radio 3.x, with gps enabled?
On this link, http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=9229 , ImCoKeMaN warns about bricking the phone if one were to do that.
Yes it does
2nd part is radio flash
I saw the other post but was desperate and all worked fine
Jman
You really should try a 6.1 rom. 6.0 roms like the dcd you used are really really old. Try something like dcd 3.3.4
Yes! i have searched the forum for this question i cudnt find a relevant answer.

>EXTREMELY SORRY IF SIMILAR THREAD EXISTS I SEARCHED ALOT N MAY HAVE FAILED TO FIND IT<
Check the post of the ROM you want. There must be a list of compatible Radios. Usually x.xx.50.xx radios work with all ROMS, but I suggest you check it in the ROM thread.

Hello xda,
The latest Spl where it's possible to install HSPL is 2.10.***, right?
I've been looking for the latest stock rom with 2.10; I found this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=636387
but unfortunately is for T-Mobile Usa version.
Does anyone know where I can find a 2.10 stock Rom for European HD2?
another question.
How is the SSPL? Can you share some feedback?
As far as I know, it's the only method available to install modified ROM with an 3.14.***. How is the 3.14.** compared to the older ones?
Thanks
there are no stock spl 2.x for europe hd2. I think you need to do more reading, you seem to be missled.
What you trying to do?
ok.. so the latest version for the europe is 1.66.
I did do a research before ask, though..
otherwise I wouldn't know what the SSPL / HSPL is.
Any feedback from the SSPL?
Hi,
Im new to this flashing roms but i manged to flash my htc hd2 to nrg custom rom 21916 with hspl and radio 2.07.50.27
But i am having alot of issues with network coverage and internet connection.
The phone is a stock uk tmobile and im using 3uk network.
I need some advise or how to revert back to stock and use android boot
Thank you in advance
I'd recomment the latest HTC ROM (3.14) that comes bundled with a new radio (2.15) which is great for running Android.
After that, head over to the Android dev forum, here, and start reading!
how do i get onto 3.14 htc rom and do i have to revert the hspl back to orignal
can someone please point me in the right direction thank you
