Anyone tried to install a radio??
It should beposible. Why would raphael be able to flash Xperia radio but a Xperia no raphael radio.

in that thread xperia 1.06 radio link point to a file named "ht*p://www.4shared.com/file/73205809/670e29d4/Raphael_Radio_1062529.html"
I let you try, I don't trust it

theres mention of hexediting the radios here.

Yes, I have. I am currently using radio from build 19949. I can definitely say it has better reception in my area. I tried them out before posting them up. However refer to the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=455353&page=3 posts: 33-41 for more info.
Here's the link to the radios. I flashed my xperia x1i successfully, but the radio info on the device never changed despite the fact that all the radios had different size and origination: http://www.4shared.com/file/75157477/41406b1f/Radio_ROMs_for_xperia.html

I have already flashed few differents radios from Raphael and Touch HD, they working without any problem. You only need to make NBH file with NBHUtil and make sure in XML of this program there is 0x300 for Xperia radio (orginally Olipro/Cmonex adds 0x301 but it's wrong). If in xml is 0x301 device shoudn't be bricked (if its hardspl) but it will not change the radio.

Thank you for this post - I can see it's significant, but as a lesser mortal I cannot grasp the full meaning, so:
1) Olipro/Cmonex wrongly added 0x301 to ... WHAT, please ?
2) we need to edit the XML of the radio nbh file to 0x300 ? Or some other XML file, or ... WHAT, please ?

Could someone start a radio thread. And make these rádio's for Xperia???

Thank you very much! You answered my question about why after flashing different radio's the version in device info never changed. Now after the xml was corrected, I bricked my device two times soon after flashing the prototype Radio and ATT Fuze one. It tells me that American Rom, supporting the 850 UMTS in ATT Fuze did not like the guts of the x1i. So it very much could be the lack of hardware for it? If only we could try the prototype radio for the same evaluation purposes. How come we cannot flash the prototype rom back on x1i?

Cmonex said they were signed in a particular way in the hardspl thread, maybe they need hex editing to allow them to flash.

Thank you, fards!
Could anybody help on this, please. We would all like to test the prototype radio. It could be a software switch that enables 850 UMTS if there is hardware for it. In prototype Rom there were all UMTS bands listed. After flashing the Att Fuze radio onto my x1i I had to go through the "unbricking" process. It did not like the american radio for some reason.
If anyone knows how to edit and flash the prototype Radio portion on x1i, please give us a hint. The device ID does not match when attempting to flash with radio b19949.
Any suggestions would be very helpful. Thank you.

The murk seems to deepen.
I still have a simpleton question above unanswered, but now we seem to have people who do know the answer to that question bricking their device, with evidence pointing to a hardware difference.
Perhaps when we have a genuine X1a radio file to compare with an X1i radio file, we may advance.
For sure, Qualcomm's greed is now stuffing up half the globe.

I'd leave it for a bit if you don't know, as it could get messy. When it's sorted then start playing
However from what I understand (can't help myself I like to play)
the xml referred to is the nbhutil.xml in most of the kitchens (including the kovsky)
Sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong, but it looks like it allows you to "resign" the radio much the same way as hex editing it does. I linked to the discussion thread on that one earlier.

Guys it isn't a problem to modify 0x300, but to change the device ID to be able to flash the prototype at least. Some folks flashed with the similar band Radio's from Diamond or Raphael successfully.
I was not able to flash any American (with 850 UMTS support) Radio yet, nor the prototype radio. We need an expertise on further guidance.

Thank you for the reply. I can easily hexedit a file, but I needed to know which file of course.
I have an X1a on order - supposed to be delivered in maybe 2 weeks. I'm in Aus in an area serviced by the 850Mhz frequency, so I'll be able to give a definitive. When the thing does arrive and everything works out of the box, I'll do a "pcoread" and upload the raw ROM files here.
SE have stated to me in an email that there is no X1a, X1i etc, only an X1. At this point, I'll suspend disbelief. Also the UK retailer I am purchasing from (who has in the past proved reliable and honest) is doing the "funky chicken" about actual supply date, although they say they have stock. I made it very clear to them that if the 850Mhz is crippled, the thing goes straight back for an instant refund ... so we'll see.

HERE´S MY 2 CENTS - HOPE THIS HELPS YOU GUYS:
I have a "european" X1i
I am using my euro-SEX1i on my 850MHz provider: TELEMOVIL-TIGO
I am connecting to 850MHz GSM/EDGE
It "has" the UMTS 850MHz band "listed" in the phone settings menu, but when I manually select it the phone can't connect
I can use 850MHz GSM but not 850MHz UMTS
My ROM version: 1.02.931
My RADIO version: 1.06.25.29
My CPU: Qualcomm 7200A
My Model identity: X1i
My software: "Generic UK"
PS: my provider DOES offer GSM and UMTS over 850MHz, so I am sure it is the phone and not the provider

Found this on the Raphael section: http://rapidshare.com/files/163298875/Raphael_Radio_1.09.25.14.zip
Anyway to convert it to Xperia??

Ok guys, just flashed my Radio. At first I did edit the hex value to 0x300, like described here. I flashed using the default ruu update tool and I got an error, which bricked my device. So I moved to the SD-Card method and flashed directly from it. Same problem - update goes up to 100% and then quits with an error. The device is unusable.
However, when changing just the Raphael value in the nbh file - from RAPH***** to KOVS***** the update worked perfectly fine. I flashed back to the default radio version and now to the newest Touch Pro radio. The new version is not shown in the device information panel, but I can say for sure that it worked. When reception is lost its back in 1 second - before that it took 5-10 seconds. I will report back after using the device outside ...

This is indeed good news, even if it doesnt unlock anymore band, the improve signal would be great.

No radio cab will "unlock" the UMTS 850Mhz frequency in the X1i, in my view.
I've posted on this in the 850Mhz thread - the X1i and X1a have differing hardware (likely the radio crystals cured to specific but differing frequencies) and HTC as assembler have separate production runs, as they did for the Touch HD ... my source for this is a very disgruntled retailer.
It's one on-going result of the Qualcomm patent theft US Court decision, of course.
Improved phone reception however is a big plus though, so I will try it, but the post should have listed the radio version number for the Touch Pro cab he installed. Not doing this just adds to the confusion unecessarily.

Anyway, HTC Touch Pro (Raphael) is UMTS 900/2100 only. UMTS 850MHz is not lised (source: HTC.com and pdadb.net).
Regarding UMTS 850, I guess the HTC Touch Diamond 110's radio (North american version) should be "the one" to try.
Curiously enough, Touch Pro and Diamond 110 have the same Qualcomm MSM7201A chip... but different bands ??
If somebody can provide that radio (from the north american diamond OR even better,FROM THE X1A) then I am willing to try it on my Xperia.
This is the only way to find out if the "european" X1i Xperia is UMTS 850 capable or not.

ok, stop here. Now run "dmp2pkg dump"; this command creates the two folders "SYS" and "OEM". When the process is completed browse into these folders, you should have all the OS files in package format. At this point you can delete dump folder and imgfs_raw_data.bin (if you want)

Extract Pharos Kitchen tool in some place (eg. \Pharos\DIY)
Go to "\Pharos\DIY\Build" and rename "OEM" and "SYS" folder to "OEM.old", "SYS.old".
Copy your originals "OEM" and "SYS" folders to "\Pharos\DIY\Build" and leave it there...
Now you need the OS.nb from the official ROM. This file is inside RUU_signed.nbh.
.
Right click on RUU_Pharos_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.11.707.1_4.1.13.59_03.15.90_BLUE_Ship.exe that you have downloaded and choose "Open with WinRAR" or "Winzip --> Open with winzip" and extract RUU_Signed.nbh in some place, put NBHExtract.exe in the same place.
Open an MS-DOS window here and run "nbhextract ruu_signed.nbh".
Some files will be extracted:

Go to DIY folder, double click on "1.BuildOS.bat" and start the process by clicking green arrow.
When done close BuildOS and launch "2.CreateOS.bat".
When done launch "3.htcROMTool.bat".
If its all ok you should have ruu_signed.nbh in "\Pharos\DIY\flash" folder, just run "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" and update your device.
Note that your device must have HardSPL patch for flash this ROM

NO IT WONT.... It has been discussed million times before. The EURO version is DIAM100 and the US version is DIAM110. They have different 3G antennas.PERIOD. U can switch ROms and Radios back and forth but you wont UMTS unless you have the hardware. Best thing you might get is enabled 850band. Thats it.
Long story short, US Rom and radio wont enable 850 umts on Euro version.
There is a difference between discussed and tested.
Unless you have tested it, you can't say for sure it will not fix it.
There are plenty of willing testers if the Radio Rom is provided.
As for DIAM100 and DIAM110, it's just a model number. It does not tell you what it has and what doesn't. I can tell you for sure DIAM110 does not have the front camera that the DIAM100 has, but no one can say DIAM100 don't have the DIAM110 3G antenna.

The one that should let go is you.
the proof is i have a diam100 and put the telstra rom on it (diam130, 850MHz 3G band capable) and it didnt work!!!
far out man how much more obvious do you want it to be....?!?!?!
And as for you model number comparison...diam100 vs diam110/130...being just a model number...
i mean gee a Nissan Skyline R33 vs R34....they must be 100% the same after all its a just a model number...both are skylines....

You want proof?? I was one of the first early adopters of the DIAM100 when it first came out. I have able to enable the 850 band GSM but not UMTS. No one I mean no one was able to enable the 850 UMTS on the Euro using different radios including the US radio version. Using the same radio and rom on the Euro 3G works fine and same radio and Rom on the US 3G doesnt work... How do you explain that???

I have an unlocked HD that I purchased from Hong Kong (Plemix) which appears to be the European version (there's a small label on the phone box that says Dystrybutor Brightpoint Poland SP. Z o.o). Are any other radios out there from any device compatible with this phone? Or will any other radio not made for the blackstone specifically brick the phone? Like everybody else I'm using radio 1.09.25.14. My hope is that one day very soon there will be a radio that will simply make 3G work in the US with AT&T. The phone box specs does state HSPA/WCDMA 900/2100MHZ Quad Band 850/900/1800/1900 MHZ. Thanks.

At the moment you can only upgrade Blackstone radio to another official version signed by HTC. Changing radio ROM on Diamond and Raphael is possible, however there's no radio available that makes 3G work. General conclusion is that it takes more than flashing a radio to make this happen.
Actually there is just one radio version for the blackstone, isn't it? So there isn't much to share at all .

If i learn how to dump. I will dump.
I've only seen instructions for dumping the radio from a really old wings, so can't help out..
but Cmonex said this of note..
extra Xperia-specific notes: the prerelease roms out there in the X1 ROMs thread are not going to flash on retail devices because the radios they include are only flashable on prerelease devices
people have got the xperia radio working on raphael I wonder about reversing the situation..
xmoo
do you have the shipped ROM from you device? Or maybe from your mobile carrier?

My original rom was T-Mobile (Pre-Release but not proto type).
After flashing to original xperia rom tha radio also changed.
So i'm on 1.06 now not 1.04
So I guess my radio did get flashed....
xmoo
I also have final device but when I bought it it was also with prerelase rom (from 1st auguts) and 1.04 radio. On this one evertyhing was working fine but after update to new UK rom i have problems with geting fix on GPS. My x1 see satelites but can't get fix, that is why I wanted to downgrade to 1.04 radio. Have you tested gps after update?

In my case I did not test it in 1.04
But with 1.06 i get fix in 2sec (very very fast) about 8-10 satelites....receiption is a bit lower.
i dont think the radio has anything to do with gps, its just 3g and gsm

That's not true.

xmoo have right, that's not true. Radio is also related with GPS. Xmoo I see also 8-12 satelites, but it's can't get fix i don't know why :-( I don't know how many satelites i had on 1.04 but fix wasn't problem then.

An X1a WWE Radio ROM ??

Thanks to pavelx1 posting a list of officially released ROM's, I've extracted the various components from:
X1a_TELSTRA_AU_CDF1221-3134_R1AA021
1) The ROM is huge - >210Mb - and contains a number of "new" panels like Google plus shareware games and media packages. NetCF is still only v2.0
2) I'm interested in the radio ROM, so I've uploaded 03_GSM.nb as the likely candidate, based on the name and file size (about 20Mb)
dl link is:
http://www.zshare.net/download/547149520f6ea235/
My skills here are still rudimentary, so no clue on how to handle this nb file. I vaguely remember a post from Fards, I think, stating no-one had detailed how to extract a radio ROM - I think this is the nb file of the radio
Is anyone able to analyse this file - in particular to compare with the radio ROM's from the X1i ?
BTW, Telstra is said to have an exclusive supply deal from SE for Aus (because of the 850Mhz UMTS frequency) so I think this is why the ROM has a Telstra brand on it
I'm exploring your file with a hex-editor...
It doesn't look like a radio file to me
BTW you should try the new 1.10.25.18 radio, it's available in the ROMs library, and it was included in the latest NAM R2A WWE ROM

Yes, maybe not, although it seems the right size and is named as ...GSM.nb
No other extracted *.nb file comes close to these parameters.
I had already loaded the 1.10.25.18 radio - seems much faster on a TTFF GPS lock but time and changing atmospherics will test that. WiFi and BT seem unchanged, but were anyway already good.
GSM/3G testing later ...
With the slow release of the X1a devices, this forum is becoming lively
yeah the latest roms all include the same radio by the lookof it.

Yes, well I have read it earlier, makes sense
but
I don't see the relevance to the posts in this small thread
This was simply an attempt to extract the only radio ROM for the X1a currently in Aus for comparison with the X1i ... simply, I have not much idea how to treat this nb file for analysis. Perhaps Telstra's R2 when it occurs will help, maybe not.
The current radio 1.10.2518 seems to work OK on either the X1a or X1i so perhaps analysis of Telstra's R1 radio has no practical value. Still, curiosity generally leads somewhere useful.

Generally, nb files go into the kitchen and get cooked to become delicious nbh flashable files
Kovskykitchen BTW
to make the radio from the nb you bung it in HTCRT.exe and convert it to a nbh.
it is a radio, don't know what version it is though.
:EDIT
run it through windiff against the gsm.nb from the R2 VFUK rom and it's the same file, so it's safe to assume it the 1.10 radio I guess

Thanks mate - exactly what I was curious about. This also means we can now extract the radio roms from official ROM's ourselves (or at least the Telstra ROM's) ... GREAT!!
BTW, the radio 1.10.25.18 released a few days ago (and in the library) is definitely very much faster for GPS TTFF. About 10-15 seconds on my verandah after a soft reset. Using HTC QuickGPS ephemeris data downloads of course.

Yes, I know where they go, but fards actually answered the question above of HOW to treat them - we now believe that the 03_GSM.nb file extracted from the Telstra R1 ROM is indeed the radio rom.
yeah the 1.10 is definitely better radio.
It's a pity that it's a bit lazy at picking up a new signal when the old one's been lost but I'm happy with it.

Help anyone Cmonex, Thaihugo , i00 , Gullum , saiweb and pli6128

done already thanks
Yes, I had the same problem but...
I solved it with 1.58.21.23. With the other: 1.27.35.28 it was imposible. I am from Spain and my operator is Movistar.
Bye and good luck.

that mean only 9 person still have a problem with this problem.. the radio of 1.58.21.23. and 1.27.35.28 still have a problem.. maybe someone can create a radio optional if their cannot use the 1.58.21.23. and 1.27.35.28. comodon if you using that radio of 1.58.21.23. you cannot make shift become a phone right?
Radio 1.27 is a modified radio by cmonex to adapt to the phone roms. WIthout it, you would have a big buzzing sound in the speaker at each boot.
1.58 is normaly a dump from the stock radio on european shifts. It can phone too, but without sound, it's quite useless.
Cmonex is provider for both radio. I only touch roms, not radio. This is her who can help you there.
yes that's correct thaihugo,thanks for the explanation,I think that cmonex can create a new radio rom for us or someone that have a original radio for htc shift for asian version rom or original radio please upload here.so that can fully ultilized the internet broadband
Black screen

I reflashed Gullum's rom with radio 1.27 rad. after I got problems with phone connection. I have since that a black screen, which I don't get fixed with all I found on black screen problems. Could somebody support me to get it running again? (No sound in Vista either after reinstalling)
