Hi.
I recently got a wizard a9100, now i'm having problems with the signal.
when signal is lost (ie. when in a basement or tunnel) and i return to a signal spot, the signal indicator keeps showing the "searching" dots and never get the signal bars.
I have to insert the sim card in another phone, get signal in the new phone and then reinsert it into the wizard.
I'm sure it's not the sim card because it never happened with my old phone.
Should I update the radio firmware?
where could I find the radio update? (my network is Colombia)
the wizard config is:
IPL: 2.26.0001
SPL: 2.26.0001
GSM: 02.25.11
OS: 6.1.0.0
Thank You
bump

Yes, I did Upgraded to 2.69.11 and 2.47.11 and downgraded to 2.19.11 (originally had 2.25.11)
That did not solve my problem, but answers your question
To flash it, I had to generate a rom with Extension Rom, OS and GSM
(about 79Mb)
maybe you need to flash the original official rom that came with it to solve your problems on the niki forum they always advise to do that after some reflashing

And it said 'Error" please re run the upgrade, but verything is workine fine and the device show I have rado 1.16?? Any ideas?
I thought I read in the upgrade writeup that the error display was normal. I guess if your phone works, I'd not worry about it...
yes, it is "normal" and it is written on the upgrade instructions as well.
Radio 1.16 flash info
If you run the Radio 1.16 upgrade correctly, you'll see the 1.16 version listed in Device Information on your mobile.
The key is to go into bootloader mode first, next connect to usb, & then run the upgrade progy. The flash will take about 20 minutes. It will indicate an error, but after the flash is completed. If you got an error before the flash, then you didn't get the upgrade.
how do you update just the radio for tytn, i thought you could only update the full rom image and not pieces of it like the radio???
Read the wiki:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
my upgrade fails after about 4 min. and the radio is not upgraded (1.13 signular) to1.16 Cingular).
I would be interested to know how many can upgrade successfully.
If you are on radio 1.13 cingular, means you're using cingular rom 1.31 with bootloader 1.06, for this radio upgrades to work you need bootloader 1.04.

Hi. I ve upgraded to radio 1.16. My provider is Movistar. Now i only get gprs speed althought i am connected with umts. Is this normal?
I am geting UMTS speeds with Movistar (prepaid card) in Barcelona, but no HSDPA. Where are you located?
In Madrid...Now reflashing dopod version. Here there isnt hsdpa speed althought Movistar say it is activated so now i am moving to vodafone....
I did move from Amena to Voda in august for the same reason
Good luck!
What about your feelings with vodafone hsdpa?
Is not as good as I expected initially... I have decent speed at work, in downtown (~700kbps) and icon shows and 4 coverage bars.
But at home (eixample area), I have and 3-4 coverage bars and I am only getting UMTS speed (~300kbps).
Maximum I have seen is (~1100kbps) in Fira de Barcelona, the place where it was 3GSM last year.
For the tests I use the following pages:
http://www.bandwidthplace.com/speedtest/
http://www.dslreports.com/mspeed
Usually dslreports shows the truth, and bandwidthplace reports a little bit more than the reality.
BTW, I haven't noticed any speed or coverage improvements after the 1.16 radio upgrade, only that it is faster switching on and off the flight mode to switch SIMs (I use the dual sim adaptor), and probably that I hear a bit louder than before the other party when I am on a call.
Hy at all,
I have one MSPV M3100 and i upgrate this to WM6 Xda-Live 0.20.1 ROM. This rom woek perfectly but my telephone run very bad.
Y have this version:
ROM: WM6 Xda-Live 0.20.1
Radio ROM: 1.16.0.0
Bootloader: SPL 1.06
I want upgrade my Radio Rom to 1.27 version, but not it with himself. I have tried 4 times, and always the same error. ERROR 114= Upgrade error.
I have followed these instructions:
Upgrade instructions
1. Extract the contents of the compressed file you've just downloaded
2.Run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
Description for Radio 1.11 shows ver 0.70, but don't worry about it, it is really 1.11
3. The Hermes screen will turn white and show "Upgrade Radio Stack Please wait........."
4. If you get a "ERROR 120: COUNTRY ID ERROR", do not disconnect the device, run MaUpgradeUt_noID again.
5. The upgrading process will start and MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe will end up saying "ERROR 114: Upgrade Error", but the radio ROM will be flashed anyway, don't worry about that error!
6. Soft reset with stylus (Device will not be hard reset and no data will be lost)
that I have done badly?
as I have it to do?
Sorry for my english, is very bad.
Thanks a lot of for your answers.

You need to prep the bootloader. I will go find the link.
Here is the wiki link. This should get you started. I am in the process of downgrading from 1.35 to 1.27 right now. lol
I have the Oliman 1.10 and ipl is 1.01. Search for hard spl and you will have it all.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
Before you flash the radio it is a good idea to use Hard-SPL so if the flash goes wrong the phone can be recovered.
pardon, but what is Hard SPL??
Is a program??
how I prepare the bootloader??
thanks
You Need to use SSPL. Look for Radio Files with SSPL in the WIKI.
Hello,
I must make downgrade to a ROM with the version SPL 1.04 to be able to
change to my radius ROM?
That is what me say?
Thanks.
@merodio How is it that you live in the USA, but have a CANADIAN cell provider (Fido), and also can't speak/write English (again, since you live in the USA)???
EDIT: Apparently the fido icon comes up when you select "Albania - Albanian Mobile Comms" as your provider.. Which is ALSO a non-sensical choice if you're in the USA....
You need to be superCID to run the RUU you're trying to use. Use one that uses SSPL.

Hello,
Pardon. It does not form well my profile. I have two mobile. One Hp 6815 with Movistar and one SPV M3100 with Orange.
Pardons but I do not understand.
How I can obtain superCID?
I want to put the RADIO ROM 1.27.0.0 SSPL that this here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
What I must do first?
Downgrade to a ROM with SPL 1.04 or Change to SuperCID.
Thanks for reply.

Hey Meodio_99, sorry but you are a classical case of someone who is going to end up with a bricked (dead) phone. You have a disadvantage as your English does not appear to be very good but you need to both read AND understand otherwise sooner or later you will end up with a bricked phone.
I suggest you read all the WIKI sections talking about upgrading and also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286755
It might take you an hour or so but it might also prevent you from crying yourself to sleep at night because you killed your Hermes!
Hi everyone,
I tried to update my radio version several times but after finish update, the radio version still display the old version.
I did try update to 1.41, 1.50, 1.51, 1.45. every time I did success, which means status bar went 100% and then reset itself without error. however, when I check the radio version in "settings", it shows 1.14.01.10, hope someone can help. thank you all.
my info:
Phone: X01HT
WM6 CE5.2.1948
ROM version: Schap's 4.22
ROM date: 10/03/07
Radion version: 1.14.01.10 (after several times update, still!)
Protocol Version: 32.50.7018.00H
ExtROM version: 4.22.20071209
IPL: 1.04
SPL: 2.10.Olipro
Since your device is a softbank hermes you MAY have an issue because it has radio bootloader 0182 on it (which is flashed when you FIRST turned the phone on).
I wasnt aware this prevented it from having a new radio version flashed though??
Ive been away a while so somebody might be able to elaborate on this.

so....can this be fixed or solved? thx man.
to my best understanding, no, this cannot be resolved. you can unlock the phone (not free) and change the ROM, but the 1.14 radio and 0182 radio bootloader are unchangeable. i think developers have given up on cracking this bootloader as its a negligible population that are affected (X01HT users in Japan... i happen to be one and have been waiting and hoping for a solution since i got my phone in april).

thats bad. no wonder after several updates, it still stick with the old radio version. I thought I can improve the reception performance after radio updates.
oh well......we'll wait then. anyways thank u all. hope there will be a way to do a update on X01HT.
Are those all X01HT cannot be updated radio ROM? and only be stucked in the 1.14 radio version?
I thought I saw someone using X01HT is using a more update radio version though....
You can prevent RBL 0182 from loading by immediately resetting the phone during its FIRST power up. But if you let it go through the customization process, then you're pretty much f**ked. Having said that, I really have no issues with mine being stuck at radio 1.14, I use only 3G and with average use the battery still lasts 3 days, not to mention very good reception even inside my Boxwave Armor casing (aluminium) which some people here have reported to have a dissipating effect on the signal strength. However, these are just my experiences, and are anecdotal at best.
Hi eveyone
i m using Imate Jasjam (hermes100). i am having a problem with network signals. its just network shows dummy signals. cant make or receive calls.
it all happened when i upgraded it to WM6. i used Hard SPL v9. the rom upgrade was ok. except that it stuck at 100% and gave a message to recover. but the rom upgrade become successful. after that i was having issue of this annoying radio prob. i used radio 1.54.30.10 after that i m using 1.54.07.00. but no change is noticed.
when the radio stops working, i change the 3G setting at Comm manager to auto mode than to GSM mode an it failed to register to network and showed "No service"
Imate Jasjam (Hermes 100)
IPL 1.04
SPL 2.60 Olipro
HardSPL v9
OS Schap's WM6 pro 4.31 full
This is a very well documented problem with hermes. More and more people are starting to have this problem now.
I had the same problem and I got a new phone under warranty.
Most likely it is a radio hardware problem and probably you will need to have the motherboard changed.
If phone is still under warranty, just get it repaired by HTC. If not then you are probably out of luck.
My 2 cents
Help needed!!!
that is very odd.
my hermes is working perfectly ok except the radio. it has never been bricked. i have flashed it many times. tried all versions of Hard SPL. tried many roms. tried many radio roms. everything installs to the last dip.
but still no success regarding radio signal problem.
i have noticed that when one sim stops showing network, i put other sim having other network coberage and it works. but jus for 10 to 12 hours. after that i have to change it back. and it works for 10 hours. but it really getting me on my nerve
please share if helpful to me.
PLEASE ADVISE ME if i get my Hermes fixed by changing its mother board, should i go for WM6 and newer radio or not.
thanks
Hi,
I have this wizard for couple of years.
It works fine but sometimes looses connection with GSM (became unavailable).
The bad joke is that I do not know about it (signal indicator shows good signal and others are ok).
At the moment I'm using the following firmware:
ipl 2.21.0001
spl 2.21.0001
gsm 02.07.10
os 2.21.4.1
WM5
I think the first possible solution is to upgrade radio.
Which version works most stable? Where is it? How to reprogram it without hard reset and reflashing all device (too hard to backup and reinstall all the software)?
Thanks.
Oleg.
Check out 'XDA-Wiki' you'll find all the Radio Roms listed there.
Its very simple to flash and upgrade Radio Rom,just hook up the phone with pc via usb cable and run the RUU in the Radio Rom,it'll hardly take a couple of minutes to flash.

I've found 2.71 with RUU_GO.exe
Is it the file to run? Is it suitable for 'operators' phone (G4)?
Can I be sure that nothing will happens with the current apps and data?
All Radio Roms are safe to flash to any device,G3 or G4,it just flashes and upgrades the GSM files and nothing else is changed or effected,it doesn't have any IPL/SPL (Bootloaders) in it.None of your personal data or application will get effected.
The most stable and commonly used Radio rom is considered to be is 2.19.11 and 2.69.11.But everyone have their own experiences,it all depends which suites you the best.
Hi,
thank you!
you were right about simplicity
last time (couple years ago) it was much more tricky to reprogram all rom
just flashed 2.69 radio and will check it's stability
i have 3.02... radio on a g4
