Radio 1.06 vs 1.06.02

Does anyone know the difference between the radio stack 1.06 and 1.06.02? Is the 1.06.02 the latest version?
I don't know the technical differances, but 1.06.02 is the latest version .I have much clearer b/t, much improved wifi and bluetooth range, and no hollow sound through the bluetooth headset.I get 25 feet range on b/t. I am running the dangaard 1.22.167 rom on my pda2k.

What was you'r old radio version? I am currently running v1.06.00 wonder if upgrading to 1.06.02 is that much of a difference?
Thanks
I was running the 1.22.162 Imate rom and it was 1.06.00 . Now with the Qtek 1.22.167 it is 1.06.02 .It made a big difference on mine.I am still very happy with this Rom. 8) 8)

Garinx,
You can download the radio rom from here - ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/RadioROM/BA_FRA_BelDT_12202_558_10602_Ship/ . This file is radio only so it will support any BlueAngel based device.
By the way, this is ONLY the radio file!!!! You will have to place this radio_.nbf file into an extracted ROM folder to perform the upgrade. PM me for help!
Good luck,
Dom

Is it possible to upgrade just the radio, without doing a a full rom upgrade.
By that i mean, doing a upgrade to the same Rom and extended rom but changing the radio file.
Can i simply just upgrade the radio only
Thanks
John
Yes, you can update just one ROM at a time. All you need to do is remove the other two ROMs from the upgrade directory and you will see that when you run the upgrade program that only the remaining rom is listed as an update.
This works as I have carried out the same procedure to update my radio to 1.06.02 but I cannot remember if the unit hard resets itself after the update. Just to be safe - do a full backup first!
Happy updating.
John,
Yes, this is possible as it states above.
All I did was back up my device, then replaced the radio file in the ROM upgrade and then run the upgrade! After installing and Hard Resetting, I just restored from backup!
Let me know if you do it and how it went.
Dom
applecom
Yes you can only upgrade the radio, be sure and back up the device as this will also need a hard reset and all you're custom programs/settings will be gone you can restore with the backup.
Backup and remove all .nbf files except for the radio_.nbf file and run baUpgrade.exe
This will upgrade the radio only, I did this last night and it works
I think the answer may be YES, YES and YES!
Try this as the saves some time on the download, its readio only.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/RadioROM/BA_FRA_BelDT_12202_558_10602_Ship/radio_.nbf
Is the radio rom 1.06.02 is the latest one?
Was when I put it there, like the folder reads, 1.06.02
Does 1.06.02 radio rom improve quality of BT and/or phone? What about the power consumption?
Headset Trouble
Does the Radio Update 1.06.02 fix all troubles with headsets like:
.) scratching noise when more than 2 meters away from device
.) headset lost connection to device often.
or is this not fixed ?
ore is there maybe another possibility to fix this.
link to nbf ?
As I read in this thread, a new radio version might solve my problem described below. But both links to radio_.nbf's in this thread are not working. Please post another one and would you please explain the process of upgrading! Thx a lot!
yesterday's Subject: HELP! Microphone shut-off/power-safe during calls
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I just bought the Qtek 9090 about a week ago. Great machine, but calling is aweful. I have the same problem that I read about somewhere else on the net: during calls the microphone shuts off when I don't talk. When I start talking there is a short delay I guess, which makes the connection sound cracky or interrupted to the other person on the line. Is this a known issue to anyone here? Is this a software or hardware prob? Should I send it back? Will they be able to repair it, exchange it or do nothing at all? Please reply quickly. I need to know what to do in order to send it back in time! Thx a bunch!

Everything you need is on the ftp server byt you will have to search for the relevant directory. Here is a starter for ten -> http://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel
Then go to the radio rom dir .......

Or would xcalibur be so kind as to upload it
Bosjo
I Pmed xcalibur and he does not feel comfoftable with the ExtRom unlocking.

country ID error.
Dear Wiki,
I downloaded the rom, and I extracted it. I following the instructions. I got the country ID error after run BaUpgradeUt.exe.
I tried to use xda3nbftool.exe to fix the rom, but still get the wrong password warning.
I tried to use xda3nbftool -t ms_.nbf > password.txt to get the password, but still get the same message, wrong password.
I am stopping now and searching the post. What can I do now ? Thanks a lot !

Good ROM/Radio Assessment Article

http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=518&more=1
Author's conclusion is that ROM 1.6.7.1 with radio 01.13.10 is the fastest EDGE and USB connection speeds with stable ROM. I'm using a ROM 1.6.11.1 with 01.13.10 radio with great results.
Enjoy

Best rom for I-mate k-jam

Your iMate KJAM is a HTC Wizard thus the author's recommendation of ROM 1.6.7.1 & Radio 1.13.10 is valid. I have a MDA Vario and flashed to this combo with no problems. There is no "best" ROM as the hardware is basically all the same.
By reviewing this xda-developers section on Wizard, you'll form an impression on what works and what doesn't and the pluses / minuses of each.
All the best,
Craig
Question... What is this making sure your phone is CID unlocked?
Carrier unlocked?
Mine is an unlocked Imate K-Jam?
Can I just upgrade the Rom?
Thanks

Look in aWizard ROM util link
Forgive me gentlemen as I am very new to this specific device... I ran the Awizard tools and used the CID unlock and backed up that file... I'm assuming that is to restore it incase of sending in for warranty?
I then backed up all (radio, rom, extended)
Okay so now my question is... Can I just run the Qtek rom executable or should I used the Awizard tools to do the Radio and Rom seperately...
Is there any difference? Can I even just upgrade by double clicking the executable? Will it give me a new extended rom then?
Finally, is there any software differences between the Qtek and the Imate?
I just want to use the Qtek rom until the latest I-mate rom comes out.
Thanks for your guys help.. I know you will be able to answer my questions....

Please take some time and read before posting. This is important for old and new members alike.
Start in the WIKI and if you get completely lost, then create a post. But please don't expect members to spoon-feed you all the information you can easily find on your own here.
Have "patience" and take your time reading everything associated with unlocking and upgrading a few times before trying anything. You'll be glad you did.
