It's on HTC's website, dated July 7th. I haven't seen any other threads on it, and I wanted to see if anyone else has tried it. I've updated to it myself, and it seems to be an overall improvement over the version I had. There's really nothing much in the notes, though it seems they tweaked quite a bit. Most notably, it's done wonders for my battery life. I used to always come home with a phone that was nearly dead. Now I get home with 60-70% still left on the battery. It could be my imagination, but the phone seems a bit more responsive now as well. If the battery life is anything to go by, it could just be from general optimization of the ROM. Other points of interest... the activesync app is no longer self-launching, and Opera Mobile appears to have had an update as well.
-edit-
Here's the link: http://www.htc.com/us/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=200&act=sd&cat=all
im in the process of doing it know, ill let ya know what i think in a bit
I tried it when it 1st came out, its definitely better than the shipped rom, but its still got all of the bloatware and other b.s. that interferes with performance. IMO, you're still better off with a cooked rom.
ya i honestly cant tell a different between stock rom and this update
Oh yeah, I'm sure a cooked rom is faster. Just thought I'd put the PSA out there. It does seem to address a few issues for my launch version of the ROM.
one of these day ill get around to putting a custom rom on my phone.
thiers just to many and i cant figure out which one i want
stock
if i have already unlocked my phone and running a custom rom and want to flash to this stock rom do i need to do anything different?
No, just flash as you normally do. Every couple of flashes I go back to the stock rom anyway. Probably just the "placebo" effect, but I've convinced myself it helps.
Do it for the Radio

Notation to everyone here this ROM includes an updated radio. 1.12.20F. So that it's self should be worth it. I run NFS rom but I am going to update to this so I can grab the updated radio. I will then jump to his. My radio is currently 1.03.16F. It also has the later PRL and PRI.
I see the in the Radio Thread in this forum that they have the alltel readio without the whole ROM. So if you want go that route. I have just found that doing a stock flash every once in awhile keeps my custom flashing less problematic.
im still having problems as far as radio signal.........and the only reason i don't just upgraded the radio is their is no alltel dump yet
I also get great battery life after the update.

typing this didn't do anything...all i got was call cant be completed as dialed
One very nice discovery I made today (because of how little I actually talk on my TP) is that they've changed the call answer screen a bit. Seems they took a page from Apple's book and changed the answer and ignore buttons into a slider. You slide it all the way left to answer, and right to ignore. Should fix the accidental answer problem I know a lot of people (including myself) have had.
Will this work on Verizon TP? I know i will have to apply keyboard patch but would it work?
Radio should work no problem, especially since alltel and verizon are 1 now.
I dispise Verizon ROM. No YouTube, No Internet Sharing etc... Got it as a insurance replacement when my Alltel TP broke. They said they don't have Alltel TPs anymore.
Please give me the good news... PLEEEAAASE
PS: I already have GPS unlocked using MR1 release from Verizon.

I wouldn't attempt it if I were you. Have you considered trying a custom rom? If you've never done it I could help you through the process. Stock roms SUCK!
Can i ask you if it works in a touch pro un-locked of the vodafone Italy company?
I have an alltel touch pro but my area switched to verizon now, im assuming this won't be a problem because i didn't need to do any update when they switched so im guessing the radio won't be an issue? Really want to do this if it increases battery.
Also will this remove any settings or themes that kind of stuff?
edit nevermind i see it removes everything.
if i take my memory card out before i update can will all the programs that are one it reinstall? and when i put all my backed up data back on the device do the programs reinstall or do i have to do something to reinstall them?
im losing service all the time
when my phone is sitting there it says 1 bar and 3G
but when i try to use anything that uses internet its cuts off and loses service,
then goes back and says 3bars and using 1x, which works.
So basically it wont connect to 3G and says it only has 1 bar when my sisters works n 3G and says she has 3bars. and when i tether its extra slow since its running off 1x, and it loses service randomly while surfing internet, or texting, or when making a call. but when im on the phone the service never cuts out and shows 3bars
any ideas?
ps happends with EVERY rom
update prl?
Every ROM at any location?

The radios are a bit of a finnicky thing. Some people love the newest and some love the original.
Location is the most important factor when dealing with reception. You can try all the different radios and see which works best for you. There are threads on these forums with all the different radios attached.
*FYI - Be very careful when flashing radios as you could brick your phone if done improperly.

That is the latest radio, but as I said before some people swear that the older ones work better for them. It doesn't hurt to try others and see if anything improves for you. Here is a link to the radio thread.

If you're not getting good signal reception it could be your rom like someone mentioned. Some roms have signal bugs ive heard. Do you normally get reception and good signal strength when this happens? I see you updated your prl, but one thing that worked better for me was flashing the verizon/alltel hybrid prl. Gives me a much better signal, but some people have reported opposite effects. Cant search too well with tapatalk so I cant give you the link but its on here somewhere.

To All, This is a new thread dedicated to trying to resolve the known problems with the current Hacked Radio/modems we all have experienced.
Please do not post already known issues over and over I will delete them. The Effort is to keep this thread clean and up to date with newly discovered fixes an/or new bugs.
Both Allgamer and I have a Note so any developer that needs something tested pm us and we will assist you as best we can
The issues we all seem to have experienced Are:
1. Dropped calls, this is a big issue... need to phone to never fail us..... especially for those who are business dependent.
2. Low up load speeds
3. Inconsistent data speed issues
4. Data dropping
5. Battery Drain/heat issues
If there are other specific issues that arise please post and I will itemize in the OP. Let's see if we can draft the assistance of a developer (s) who are excellent with radio/modem hacking. We are close to a final fix let's try to get across the finish line to 100% success.
Thanks to All who have to date helped in the quest of finding a perfect fix.
SPECIAL THANKS to All who paid the bounty..... kept your word....... and helped in any other way...... It REALLY warms the soul to know our community can come together and follow through on commitments......... Thank you all.... Oka1
Allgamer posted this for a fix for some : In case anyone still have the drop call issues, here's a good work around http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...77&postcount=2
RESERVED.....
Thank You
I just wanted to give Thanks to the guy that made this happen! I wasn't part of the initial bounty, but I sent him some cash! I love this device and just wanted to say Thank you!
can't wait to see
what comes out here.
Wasn't there a few people who started a new bounty for the 100% properly working radio fix? Could the OP please add them to the first post and maybe keep a running total with names like the original bounty?
Also, are there any radio/modem developers who could give me a few tips on how to start working on this? I opened the radio files all gung-ho like but as they are binary I have no idea what's what in there
(Or, if a radio/modem developer is considering working on this, let me know and I would like to help and donate $20 if we are successful )
I just wanted to say thanks for making this happen first.
Second, I used the updated build.prop that was posted from the guy who figured this all out and then flashed my phone with the Telus radio even though I'm on T-Mobile. I am pleased to say this combo works PERFECT for ME.
I am getting download speeds of around 10Mbps and upload speeds are usually around 2 to 3Mbps. This is plenty fast enough. Also the data switching is instant between edge and 4g if I go out of a 4g area. My signal is also just as strong as other T-Mobile branded phones by looking at the dB level of the signal.
If you are having issues I would encourage you to try this combo. I am perfectly happy with my Notes performance.

i agree it's working pretty good for me as well
i'm still undecided which radio is better KID or Telus
they both seems o be doing great
in my end the limitations is mainly due the service provider, even on my T989 i can't get good upload speed, and download speed is the same on both my T989 and i717
so from my point of view, it's as good as it'll get
the only bug i frequently encounter is the data getting hung
which thanks fully the NoBar took care of that issue for me, if there is no signal for more than X amount of minutes it'll restart the radio for me to catch a new signal

Silly question, I gues not all AT&T Notes are created equal? I tried flashing the KID modem and my Note was very unhappy. It started up but it was stuck in an unholy lag. I tried everything but it was not until I flashed one of the other 2 modems that it went back to normal. I am trying the Telus/build.prop combo and the download is a LITTLE better at just under 4Mps with still the lousy upload speed. I live in northern Delaware.

Shouldn't have any lag in the operation of the phone. It is likely that the KID modem you are using was the original T-Mobile zip and not the modded one.

I don't notice any kind of heat issues with this device on any combo I've tried, however I don't play games for hours or anything.
As for battery life, it seems just a tad worse on battery with the build.prop modification and Telus radio but even with worse battery it is still the best life of any android device I've owned. With the data speeds I'm getting the battery life is an ok trade off.

Yup. I used Es file explorer cause it's free but root explorer should work the same.
So, I got a Rezound last week, kind of hoped that it would still have GB on it, but found out it had that recent ICS build on there. I didn't think much of it until a couple days ago...
First, I think I know the answer already, but since I have this "leaked build", I'm guessing there's no going back to stock GB? What was upgraded besides the ROM (baseband, firmware, etc)?
Second, people are saying that when I talk, it starts out at normal volume, then sounds like I'm holding the phone about 2 feet in front of me while talking (in other words sounding very distant), and coming back... Now, the only person who has actually described the problem is my dad, who has a Thunderbolt. My wife has an Inc2, and has not mentioned any problems, however she may not know what to listen for, as well as others, etc... I've also tried disabling 4g and using 3g only. I am wondering if this is some kind of radio issue?
Third, the bluetooth doesn't seem to have a lot of range. I have a couple bluetooth devices I use often. The first one is a Panasonic KX-TG6581 cordless phone which utilizes bluetooth on the handset to be used as an extension to the cell phone. On previous phones I got whole house coverage (I live in a single level 3000sq ft home). On the Rezound it disconnects at the ends of the house... I also have a Turtle Beach headset equipped with bluetooth. It seems to work fine when initially calling or getting a call, but then there's there's this weird static (kind of sounds like old dial up negotiating tones?). I wonder if this is because of bluetooth 3.0, but not ruling out the headset and rf/bluetooth interference
Last, even running with the extended battery, unless I shut off mobile data altogether when at home (which I should probably be doing anyway, but coming from other 4g phones I never noticed until now), I can stare it for 5 min and watch the percentage dropping. On wifi, not too bad. Just worried if I'm in 4g all day with no wifi will the extended battery last, say 12 hrs? I have no problems keeping it on AC power when at home.
Hope I didn't sound too noobish LOL... thanks for any suggestions.

if you have leaked ics (3.11.605.22) on your phone, you won't be able to return to stock gb.
how about re-flashing the leaked ics to see if the radio, bluetooth, and battery issues can be fixed.
Did the phone come brand new with leaked ics or did you buy it used

When I got the phone, we did the sale inside a VZW store, the salesperson turned it on, and it was at the Welcome to Android screen... Thought it looked like ICS but wasn't 100% sure (should have double checked, I know)... even the rep didn't check... So, I'm guessing it was a fresh flash? Of course, not knowing exactly where it originally came from... don't know if that would make a difference?

Okay.. I'm a bit confused. Were there earlier leaks that would just let you install on a stock phone? I'm not rooted and saw that it was S-ON when I was in the bootloader?
Is the latest ICS the one that was released around 3/17? I just want to make sure I got the right one here...

Yeah there have been a few leaks. The older ones didn't run so well and didn't have the updated radios or hboot. The RUUs are supposed to be run on a locked phone. They are signed releases from HTC. Yes it was leaked around 3/17. I am on it as are many others and it runs fine.

Okay, I flashed with what I think is the latest leak. All bootloader info is the same except I have a radio of 1.22.10.308r is this the latest now?
Still having the same issues.... guess I'm stuck till the official ICS comes out so I can get a replacement?
So I feel really dumb because I am S-off and rooted using Tranquility ICS Rom HBOOT 1.12.PRI 2.45_003 PRL 25006 Baseband 1.12.11.0809 but my cell signal just drops when I am making calls. Could I have damaged the radios somehow while getting to root and S-off? Things haven't been the same since I tried to use CM10. I put CM10 on just after I rooted and flashed I put CM10 on it and that is when I started to notice my radios would just drop. Almost as if they were rebooted. Then I takes me a long time to get a good connection back. Could flashing the wrong firmware for your radios damage them? Not sure if I did that or not but I may have.
I was happy with stock but I wanted to tether every once in a while and that is why I did it. I am horrible and a very bad phone guy.(said with a little chuckle even though it is true)
If you can, please lend me some advice.
Thank you in advance. I really should stop playing with my phones as I am not savy enough to not break them. However I love to tinker but I think I will stick with full sized computers as I know how to fix them.

Could I have damaged the radios somehow while getting to root and S-off? Things haven't been the same since I tried to use CM10. I put CM10 on just after I rooted and flashed I put CM10 on it and that is when I started to notice my radios would just drop. Almost as if they were rebooted. Then I takes me a long time to get a good connection back. Could flashing the wrong firmware for your radios damage them? Not sure if I did that or not but I may have.
I was happy with stock but I wanted to tether every once in a while and that is why I did it. I am horrible and a very bad phone guy.(said with a little chuckle even though it is true)
If you can, please lend me some advice.
Thank you in advance. I really should stop playing with my phones as I am not savy enough to not break them. However I love to tinker but I think I will stick with full sized computers as I know how to fix them.

i believe if you flash the wrong firmware your device just wounldnt boot. you are on the latest radio.
might have a defective radio chip in your phone, but i dont know how to check that
You said you're running an AOSP Rom, right? Check this out : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32126633&postcount=106

I think I am going completely back to stock and see if that has any issues. Maybe my radios aren't right so if I return to stock I will take it back to sprint and try to get it exchanged. thanks all

Okay so friday night I went with the stock rotted rom and Kaboom. My radios returned to normal. Not only that but after going with the custom roms I was having major battery issues(only 13 hours worth with limited use). I cleared the battery stats and charged it Friday into Saturday. I didn't need to recharge until tonight. 1day 8hrs 43mins with a good amount of use. I even used the wifi for about 2 hours at home installing all my apps that didn't get a proper titanium backup for some reason. Everything is back to normal. That is very strange because a lot of guys using those roms say they get similar if not better battery life. Could be me. Thanks guys for the info.

Glad it worked for you. I've played with the AOSP roms, but I'm holding out til someone ports a Jelly Bean Sense Rom over. Til then, try Viper 2.3
