New 2.1 radio on Orange Uk - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can anyone here confirm for me that they have this new radio fully working on an Orange Uk mobile on a 2.1 rom.
If so what rom are you using?

I have seen 2 posts that it is working ofr UK Orange also.

strange, its not working on VR6.2 but we can't work out why.

Phone signal: Good
Data: Good
Bluetooth: Good
Wifi: Good
Only thing I can't confirm is GPS as I'm under a big corrugated iron roof...
Running Cronos 1.5.

Really really strange
As far as I know Cronos and VR6 have the same base so why would it work on one and not the other!

yeah we are working on it, we have to try to find what is different in the two roms that would affect the radio file but for one network only... really strange.

Watch out
It's asking me for "SIM network unlock code".... can't get around it... called orange and they supposedly never heard of it.

UK Orange, Cronos 1.5, getting insert sim message

Ah maybe the people on Orange Uk that have got it working have a new (or old) sim card compared to the rest of us?

how old is your sim card?

Just downloaded the new radio from the Villain OTA app and tried it with Cronos 1.5 and it all works fine so the problem is definitely with VR6.2
My sim is only 6months old, got a new one with the phone

edited my last post- my got my sim in september 09 with my hero. i think the hero only launched in the uk in july last year, so the sim cant be that old (you could check what your usim profile is with your network)

Gettiing the t-mobile G2 ... little advice please ...

I had one on Orange but i have returned it due to only 500mb of internet and i prefer black
Just a few questions please ...
When i get it will it need to be updated ? (My orange one did, if so where will it be updated)
What do people find the speeds of internet like in the north west of England ? (With orange it was almost always on HSDPA, should i expect the same with T)
Also if the signal is not too good is there a way of boosting it ?
Does anyone know of a proper pouch designed around the Hero/G2 ?
Thats it for now thanks
James
Yes you can update by going to the t-mob forum and the links are all there
It is easy, I did last week.
T-Mob seems to be 3G at present, no one knows why, but it changed recently.
Saying that it's pretty quick, but it will depend on T-mob signal where you are, tough to question.
I got a skin of amazon for about £3 it is fine.

Firstly thanks for the reply,
Secondly i will ask them when i ring for it tomorrow telling them i wanted the fasted internet they can provide (depending on whether they can offer varied speeds altho i doubt they can)
Also what do you mean it changed recently, did it used to be HSDPA and now its only 3G ?
Also do you mind me asking what region your from please
Also any chance you could provide me with a link to the update as it would help others on here too
Thanks

I'm definitely seeing 3G as opposed to HSDPA more frequently these days, but I presumed this was to do with me changing to a later radio ROM. Is there a known issue here?

Yeah we could do with looking into this, i think i may start a thread asking all orange users what they see more frequently and what all tmobile customers see more frequently.
Then we could compile a bar chart

As a T-Mobile customer mostly seeing 3G where I live, but this has always been a bad area for mobile phone reception.
I live in NW London and I receive 3G reception 75% of the time with HSDPA only for 20% and neither for the remaining 5% of the time

Bear in mind - if you get the latest firmware from the T-mobile website, then it makes it MUCH harder to root and install custom kernels and firmwares. I did the upgrade on my G2 just after I got it, and then tried to root - once I ran into problems, I read more into it and it would have been much easier pre-update.

Rather than update then root ?
Also after you did the update did you start seeing G rather than H or ... ?

I think because the Hero update is an RUU flash rather than an over-the-air update it'll cancel the rooting if you update after root.
And if you update before root it then becomes very difficult to root - although the 'gold card' method seems to still work, I've not tried it personally.
I'm sure I had the H before the update, but I certainly get G or H now depending on signal. Can't remember seeing a G before the update, but I only had it two days before the update came out.

I rooted my G1 about 5 days ago using instant root and was hoping to do the same with this
Can a root be reversed if so how hard is this ?

Rebelsim Beta firmware v1.3 doesn't work with office 2.2.
it's worked on 2G, when I turned 3G on, can only make phone calls but cannot receive any and the R is on.

Did you follow the original instructions to re-put the sim in an unlocked phone with all data and 3g turned off? The rebelsim only communicates with the phone to trick it into thinking it has the correct sim, apps shouldn't interfere at all?? There was a problem with the old v1.1 due to the baseband being incompatible which caused no 3g/data and some call problems (same problem now when upgrading to 2.2). I'm waiting for my programmer to arrive then i will try it out

I got to borrow a programmer from a friend and I got ok when I flashed the new 1.3 beta firmware. Is there a way for me to check that the RebelSim actually has the 1.3 beta firmware loaded? Want to make sure it's upgraded before I upgrade my Streak.
Edit: The programmer I tried with didn't work.

I dont think you can coz theres no UI or anything to check, i would run the update and try coz if it isnt 1.3 then you can always easily update the rebelsim after froyo using v1.2 doesnt interfere it just doesnt work

Upgraded and now I wont get to go on any network. So it means I need a proper programmer or get an unlock code.

You can flash straight back to o2 2.1 8105. Oh dear, what programmer did you try? I tried researching and found out it needs to be a pkey thats iso compatable.

Strange stuff here!!! Long story short, I got an O2 locked 2.1 (6941) Streak. It was working perfectly fine with my Rebel SIM. Voice, 3G, everything. I upgraded to DJ Steve's 1.1.x, official Froyo and then to 1.1.4. As expected, the Rebel SIM stopped working with the start of these upgrades.
A couple of days ago, I put my non-O2 SIM in an old unlocked 2G phone. Made a few calls, sent a couple of messages and left it at that. A few hours later, I put the SIM along with the Rebel SIM in my O2 (Now on official 2.2) and I had a working signal!! I could only make calls and send messages. Couldn't receive any. No data either. No 2G, forget about 3G! Figured it was expected, and left it at that.
Upgraded to 1.1.4 yesterday. After resetting and rebooting and everything, I put the non-O2 SIM + RebelSIM back into the Streak. The non-O2 SIM had been in an unlocked phone for a while before this. As expected, I got a signal. Just for the heck of it, I put the APN settings again. They had gone after the reset and upgrade. Turned off wifi, and I've got working 3G!!!! Of course, if I loose the signal or reboot, I loose signal and don't get it back till I do a SIM shuffle, but the point is, it's working!! Getting some good speeds via 3G, so I know it's definitely working!
This gives me hope that the 1.3 firmware for the RebelSIM might give us a proper working connection. Yeah, my RebelSIM isn't on 1.3 beta! It's probably still on 1.2 like when I first got it! Going to order a Rebel SIM programmer now!

I've updated rebelsimcard II to 1.3 beta firmware. Unlock doesn't work as it should. I can call from the phone and send sms, but nobody can call me and I cant receive any sms message.
Network strenge icon showing R - roaming. I've also tried update on universalsim card with rebelsim update - same result.

So has anybody some informations about next rebel update?
I'm from Poland and I am using Orange provider sim card.

*bought a veho multi sim reader and after many hours trying, found out it definitely wont work. Cost £16.99
*ordered a sm 3320 (official programmer) after watching umpteen youtube clips updated to v1.3 cost £15
*for the life of me I could not get 3g once on 2.2 official or 1.4.5 I read endless threads everywhere for tips to try and hours trying! Resulting in not only "R" but some kind of testing mode (APN settings) which were impossible to work around! cost £0 (sanity is priceless)
*just sent streak off to rebelsim postal unlock service £44.99 but you get £10 discount if you send your rebelsim aswell. I figured that the best option before I ended up paying to fix a broken streak and window in the near future! ;-)
Ordered last night and sent it special delivery today...
Will keep you posted (at least i have my old xperia x10i till its back)

[Q] A few questions about GSM.

Hi everyone, Im considering buying a HTC Rezound off ebay, the thing is that I dont live in USA (I live in the DR) and I've read
a lot about the "GSM mode" on the rezound but I've still have a few question(Forget me if they've been already answered, as i've searched everywhere for clear answers, including the original gsm thread):
1- Do I need to get some sort of unlock code from verizon to use a sim card with it (an Orange sim card from The Dominican Republic)
2- Does the Rezound supports 3G on the 900mhz band?
thats for now, thanks in advance.
PS: Sorry again if this been answered before, believe me I searched, (Im a "former" HD2 owner, so searching an reading tons of tech stuff is not
something new to me )
I contacted a local seller who claims that the rezound supports 3g on 900mhz band, he told me we could meet so he can show me in person
that it is actually getting 3g.

1) ok first of all the rez should work without an unlock code right out the box with ANY GSM sim card... if it's a stock rom you just won't have data(browse online) and if you try sending a text you lose service..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421341
that was when it first came out.. now you can just flash a custom rom and get full working data without worries... if you need help on that as well tell me
2) i live in the commonwealth of Dominica and i'm on GSM with Digicel... they don;t have 3g down here but they are on the 900 mhz band but the have 3g and even 4g in other countries so yes you should get 3g on the 900mhz band..
thanks a lot jahrize! I bought the phone, now all I have to do is wait for to arrive, I'll update this thread once I get it going.
thanks again.

Im not sure I understand, are you thinking of going TO Verizon? as What I meant is that I WILL NOT use this phone with verizon.
anyways if what you mean is that you're switching to Verizon but you're also planning to use this overseas as a gsm device from time to time then we're (almost) on the same boat, anyways the phone hasn't arrived yet, (think I'll be getting it by the end of the week).

Glad to hear you like it here, as for the reason I'm here,well I actually live here, Im Dominican. I bought the Rezound because the hardware is excellent and since CDMA phones are a bit cheaper than their GSM counterparts (at least on ebay) I went for it. Back to the phone, yesterday I spent a few (too many) hours trying to unlock it with HTCDEV.Com but I did not succeeded as the page was constantly logging me out, but today I tried it again at work (yeah I know ) and I finally got the unlock code, but I havent tried to unlock it yet as I read somewhere that it is best to first update to (offficial?) ICS to get the latest firmware and radio and then unlock it as if one tries to update after unlocking it will not update. By the way do you know how could I flashed the official update as I haven't been successful trying to get it OTA and im a bit confused with all the leaked ICS ruu floating around.
Thanks.
As promised here's the update: it works!!! It gets to connect to hdspa on the 900mhz band.
Of course setting it from stock was a bit of a chore. But it is done. I'm updating this from my HTC rezound running ics sense 4.0 3g on orange dominicana

4G issues

Hey guys been having issues with 4g. It works only intermittently in my DNA (even though it shows the indicator in the status bar), but if I put my sim in my Galaxy Nexus it works flawlessly. I've tried flashing kernels, new roms, and even going back to stock with ruu, but no luck. I've even switched to a new sim card. Anyone else have this issue? Or know of a fix? I'm hesitant to do a warranty exchange because the phone has the "relocked" tag in the bootloader (but no tampered tag).
I saw this too starting last week. I thought it was because i got a new sim. But then i put the sim in a different phone and have noticed that it is doing the same thing. Only thing i can think of is it's aproblem with Verizon. And not localized since your not here in Ga.

Yeah it's driving me crazy. no one else here is having the issue and I've drove through the state recently without any change. 3G however works fine when it connects to that. I'm wondering if somehow I bricked the radio Flashing/Changing roms and kernels.
I've been experiencing this problem as well. It's so annoying. Using the app OpenSignal it's funny to see my status display 4G, but when I check with the app it always says no data.. It is very frustrating. Hopefully the SIM update dropping tomorrow will fix this.

Unfortunately not , 3 UK, still on 108.
Yeah, I have it. Vodafone UK
EE still sits on 108
Yeh got it here on Vodafone.
So by the looks of it Vodafone are the 1st in UK.
AI filters are now in Video settings. Not many other changes as far as I can see.
Will keep poking around to see if there are any other changes.
tell me, why should it be provider related?
as i understand (coming from OP6, so maybe i missunderstand) the normal firmware will be updated, no matter what provider information you have, as it comes with da different kind of "firmware" package? so everybody should (in a perfect world) get it as fast as the others?

Has it solved the popping/crackle out of the bottom speaker some of us are experiencing when starting auto videos in social media?
So far, I can't replicate the crackling noise anymore after update so looking positive

There's the Manufacturer provided firmware (which would be nice to have) and then there's the Carrier provided version with their own "tweaks" in.
The manufacturer (in this case Huawei) will supply it to the Carriers who then add on their own customisations.
It's not unusual

Happy days. If I don't receive this update today, I'll pop my daughters Vodafone sim in and try that.

There was popping sound when I started and closed apps like Clash Royale and YouTube but this is gone after 122 update.
What I'd love to know is if this new firmware (122) makes third party launchers much more compatible. Anyone, please?
Sounds like we should get some Sim cards for the fastest carrier update. If a phone is sold sim free it shouldn't have any kind of carrier tweaks
So I brought my phone from 3. But I have a Vodafone and EE SIM in it. Never put a three sim in it. Am I still reliant on three for updates?
