I just installed xdabolt and lost 3 and 4g coverage.
Must be a radio issue, but can't solve it.
Will jump on board and learn the answer to your question as well.

What do you mean?
The readme says "the ability to use vz navigator"...or something like that....
you probably still need to purchase the app....
I'm just guessing really....but when I read that...I definately smell a rat

Oh, Ok. I see. I agree. I cant find it anywhere on the VZW site. Verizon is just lame. Biggest regret I have now is dropping Sprint for Verizon.
Does this include Radio rom update? If not what radio is compatible?
LOL - They locked the hell out of the upgrade..... But, I knew that for a long time ago...... Still tho, there may be asomething we can actually use from this release.... Is the radio still 3.37.7

It does include a radio but it its version 3.37.75. I just upgraded then flashed the better radio over.
Looks like it is:
ROM: 3.57.605.1
Radio: 3.37.75

Ok, found VZnavigator. Have to download from the VZW start page. Installing now.
I'm giving it a try. It's going back tomorrow anyway due to a speaker volume issue.

Ok you need to activate it by dialing 611. No one is there, closed for the night. Great! Website is down so I cant make changes there. Verizon is just down right squared away! Thats customer service!
do you think this would also update the bootloader? should we relock it with the original one?

Latest radios?

Hi there !
I'm a bit new to the whole radio thing. I know what they are and how to flash them. I'm on an unbranded Hero, I use my orange SIM mainly but sometimes switch to my other T-Mobile one. What is the latest radio I could flash, and what difference would it make? :S
Thanks in advance!

Go to www.villainrom.co.uk, click on development corner. In the announcement list should be an item about radios. Have a read of that thread
My sig has a link to the latest too
63.18.55.06PU_6.35.15.14 is only for orange, or for any Hero?
I think 6.35.15.14 is good for any hero - using it in Israel, no problems here. If it does give you problems try either the 6.35.15.11 or 6.35.15.01.
Radio's aren't region or carrier specific (typically)
Ah cheers guys, was slightly confused earlier! Thanks anyway :] I've got the updated one.
Can anybody tell me, what are the advantages of updating your radio? Does it only improve signal strength?
They affect 3G and normal signal levels, new radio's just add details of new towers AFAIK.

Samsung GPS Fix

Does anyone have any cue when Samsung is planning to fix the GPS issue ?

The correct answer is No. While this "leaked firmware" seams to have fixed the GPS issue we do not know when it will be pushed out. Based on what I am seeing, it appears to be early beta quality. Figure a couple weeks to flush out issues, ship to the carriers, then the a couple weeks for them to certify it before pushing it out....basically I would say at least a month. However, this "leaked" firmware could be old as well and the carriers may already have it and we could start getting update notices tomorrow. The answer is, nobody on this forum actually knows.

Has anyone ripped the GPS fix from the leaked rom? I would like to try it but don't want to flash to the leaked firmware.

For you. I get unavailable messages. So its not a "for sure" thing. Unless i am doing it wrong.
GPS does not work for me either. After flashing I am seeing 12 satelites. All sats have an snr of 15-25 with zero locked.
I was able to get into lbstestmode using a market app called any cut. All of my settings are set to stock.
It appears that this update is not 100%. If anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears.
op, if you are asking a question please put a question mark in your title so you dont waste peoples time with misleading thread titles. thanks

Do we really need a separate forum?

Since it has been discovered that the AT&T One is identical to the international, except for the radio, is a separate forum really needed?
I find myself gravitating to the international forum anyway since that's where the ROMS and meaty information are.
The bootloader is unlockable, and ROMS for the international phone work fine on ours.
Mods?

I would agree with this - this isn't a One X/One XL situation, and there's no sense dividing our community. I think it will actually generate more confusion this way.
Kinda have to agree here

I think we should separate them. I'm not trying to flash a Nigerian ROM.

The radio isnt different either lol. I was working with turge testing a symlink mod so we can use new radios without s-off and it worked. It took a while, thought it wasnt working, The radio version wasnt changing. Come to find out the stock ATT radio was the exact same radio as the latest WWE (world wide English) Radio from the latest base that all the devs are using. After pulling the radio from an asian ruu and installing it, it then changed versions. It was actually working the whole time but the radios were the same so it didnt look like it.

That made me LOL. Yeah gotta watch out for them Nigerian roms haha.. Goto the ATT development section at look at your rom choices.. There's 1 and it doesn't even work. All the roms from the One dev section do work. They even ask your for your carrier during setup. The only thing i miss is the ATT status bar icons.
only problem at this point is radio and firmware.
being s-on dont really have much options and some international roms are starting to require it.

Come down dude I was only joking.
Actually I'm quite happy international Roms work with our device.
I'm also happy to say the some of the mods that the Sprint guys have created work with our phone too.

So essentially it's a fake flash? Flashing to a different partition and then unmounting the radio partition and using the mdm partition as the radio? Interesting..

Radio is not a problem. See above. Firmware wont be either once we get supercid. Everything is moving along quite fast with the One, that's great news!!

I can whip up some Att icons for international roms real quick. The animation won't match cause the differences in the two, but I can make a flash zip easily.*

Onexl Icons are far to small the One uses xxhdpi icons ( 76x76) Onexl uses 50x50. I used the stock AT&T icons. Here is the zip. Already tested myself, but backup just incase https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31377968/AT&T_data_icon_fix.zip

TMO HTC One converted to GPe, LTE question

hello,
I converted my tmobile htc one into a google play edition a few days ago and for the most part i have no complaints. however, a few days ago i noticed that i wasnt able to pick up an lte signal. I'm not sure what is going on here. I'm on the southern california area(riverside) is the lte down or something. it was working perfectly a few days after i converted my one to the GPe so i don't think this could be a problem. I was thinking of running an RUU back to stock to try and see but i dont know what to do. Any ideas??
Do you still have the T-Mobile radio, or is it now switched to the GP radio firmware?

I'm on that same radio and my LTE works.

did you convert your htc one to a GPe? i have done everything but a reset which i might do. it also might be the signal might be down in my area. i had this problem happen before earlier in the year with my note 2 i didn't have lte yet but i didn't have any hspa service for two days so it could be that but since i converted my one i hope its not something hardware related
Good question. Though I'd give a t-mo radio flash a try. It's easy enough to flash back.

yeah i suppose so. as of the moment i'm not rooted or anything. I'm however still S-OFF. Would I have to install a custom recovery and then flash the tmobile radio?
You should be able to fast boot it. I'd look for a good guide in the HTC One international forums.
I'm rooted w custom recovery, so it's a bit easier for me.

alright i will attempt this later tonight. thanks for the help and i will update with whatever happens.
Update: So i just went to Target which is about 6 miles from my house and I got LTE just fine so maybe it might be just a tower by my area that isn't working. I might just wait this out then idk i might flash the radio and see what happens

I'm sorry if this is irrelevant, but can you please point me in the direction of the thread where you learned to do that. I want to try it out, but I've been getting confused. Hopefully yours is a bit simpler.
