Help, 3600 upgrades!!! - P3600 Software Upgrading

Hello,
sorry for this topic, but I'm new here and not too skilled, so I need a detailed help 'cause I'm getting crazy!!...
Well, I have a p3600 EN version,
WM5,
rom version 1.23.405.2 (dated 2007-03-11),
radio version 1.38.00.11,
ExtVersion 1.23.405.103.
I read everywhere that HTC released rom and radio upgrades which unlock GPS (that I actually don' t see),
so I tried to download the latest official rom version (I still don't know the code, it should be the 1.23.408...) from the HTC download area, but it makes me download ONLY the same rom version that I still have, the 1.23.405.2!!!
I tried to flash it anyway and nothing changed...
That's why the 405.2 may is the latest rom version available for my phone?
Or my phone may have some sort of lock on it's codes so that I can't upgrade anything? it could be possible?
What is the right rom version I should have?
Please help me!!!
thanx in advance
Debby

Hi Debby,
After you upgrade your ROM you wiil need to flash radio with Trinity_Radio_1567011_1216023505 .
To test GPS function download and intstall on the phone GPS test, then choose beetwen Tom Tom and IGO and install'it on the phone.
for GPS test try this download link http://www.smartphone-freeware.com/download-gps-test.html
For the ROM I can help you only by email.
Y have the ROM and I can send you by email.
Be confident, you will succeed.
Good luck

Thanx a lot soso!!!
There's something I still don' t understand, but it's me I'm not skilled at all
What rom version do u have to send me? there's a newest version than the 1.23.405.2?
So the steps are: install the rom u will send me, then install the radio upgrade, and then test the GPS...right?
Can I send u my email address by PM?

Hi Debby,
I have the ROM upgrade only for radio version 1.56.70.11.
This upgrade is aplying only to the radio ROM
Your WM ROM will not change.
This is what I have on my P3600:
ROM version 1.23.405.2
ROM date 03/11.07
Radio ROM 1.56.70.11
ExtROM version 1.23.405.103
Before upgrading the radio ROM ,try the GPS test program.
Some phones "reveal" GPS capabilities with your radio ROM version.
Anyway,in both ROM version you don't actually see an icon for GPS device.
Install GPS test, run it from programs menu and you will see if you need or not an radio ROM upgrade.
If your GPS unit is enebled, the program will find it.
First connection of the GPS unit will take 3 or maybe 4 minute.
comunication port: 9
speed 57600
If GPS test find a GPS unit, install an navigation application(IGO or Tom Tom) , run it and enjoy
I wait a PM with your email address.
Bye

FWIW here is a link to the official WM5 ROM that does enable the GPS chip. It's the one i used initially to enable the GPS before making the leap to WM6.1. If i remember correctly it's a one step upgrade. Think it is the ROM/Radio you already have.
Mega Upload

GPSTest can be had from here, ChartCross Ltd.
Install and run it, it will then scan your Trinity for the GPS and report back onthe settings it is usung, and if left to settle down with a decent sky view, it will actually list the satellites it finds.

I would prefer this rom ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wi...digy_2170702_21707102_20710_QTEK_WWE_Ship.exe
Its AKU2

hi, what are diference between my ROM and your adviced ROM ver ?
Hi, i used to use your rom before my current and it was quite a good rom but the aku2 rom i suggested is better
1. Has push email - so your email arrives in a way that your sms's does, almost instantly.
2. Rom is more stable - no more spontaneous soft reset's or dropped calls
3. Battery life is noticeably better.
4. Device is a bit quicker
5. Calls using the phone are better because it has an updated radio.
6. Downside is 2 line date - can be sorted with lvmtime and battery on taskbar - can be covered with same program.
hope that helps

Hi ,
Is this the latest normal rom, i mean not tweaked, tinkered or modified ?
I looked in the FTP server but the numbering system for the roms is not really clear...
Since i am Dutch i don't mind a Dutch version...
Does it have A2DP ?
rgrds Mike
I assume you have a t-mobile vario - latest official dutch rom is here http://www.t-mobile.nl/zakelijk/med...y_2210205_22102108_021911_TMO_NL_DUT_Ship.exe
You can stop the t-mobile extras installing by doing as soft reset just before they install. None of the roms mentioned include a2dp but there is an easy addon for that look at the a2dp addon thread.

Hi thx for the info.
Your're right i have an MDA Vario
Btw is this the latest ever or just the latest dutch ?
And is it newer than the above mentioned Qtek ?
rgrds Mike
Its newer than the above qtek rom the first few numbers give it away 2.21 vs 2.17 the higher this first number the newer the rom.
There is a newer qtek rom 2.8 something but its a test rom but you can get it in dutch. Only problem is that when you boot up it says test rom and some people have noticed a memory leak, but it does have a2dp included but many have reported it does not work that well with this rom.

hi, i upgraded ROM to AKU ver 2.17
but please help me to remove the new batery and GPRS icons
from the top info bar... the icons appeared after upgrade.
10x
Those icons are part of the ROM. All ROMs of the AKU 2.1 variety are going to have those icons in place.
That said, if I were you I would immediately downgrade back to a 1.x ROM and do a CID unlock before upgrading. You don't NEED to do it if you stay with operator ROMs, but if you ever want to use a custom ROM in the future it's something you'll want to do.
The CID encryption changed somewhere between 2.17 and 2.21 and the unlocking tools no longer work. If you upgrade to a bootloader that is version 2.21 or higher you will not be able to use the current downgrader tool and you will not be able to use lokiwiz02b to unlock the CID. At that point the only option is to pay imei-check.co.uk to do the job. Might as well take the free route while you can.
re
why I need to upgrade ROM again ? this ver is working OK till now
i have not operotors ROM.

New Trinity Chinese Rom was released yesterday in Taiwan. It is available in the Dopod Taiwan site, it only said it updated the radio version.

Thanks by advance to extract the radio 1.41.00.11
Filicloe.
I'm making a flasher now, would you prefer plain radio or should I bundle with DES' Hard-SPL? Flashing radio without Hard-SPL can be risky.
Here it is. Use with extreme caution, I couldn't test it yet.
I recommend flashing Hard-SPL before, in fact I'll make a second update which includes Hard-SPL.

And here is an updater that flashes DES' Hard-SPL first, then Radio ROM.
Should be safer.

any1 tested yet? please share your thoughts
I have tested it flashed smoothly thanks ZakMcRofl,

Hi!! Many thanks for the quick 'extraction'! I would like to know if this update does a 'hard reset' for the phone? Is our data safe and we do not need to re-install everything again by using this update? Thanks ..
It does only flash Hard-SPL and Radio and should not do a hard reset.
I'll flash 1.38.00.11 back. Coz gps fixs very slow for me (
btw, i made some impovments in my rom.. and got fixes in 2 min with coldstart and after hard reset. And i tested fix with gps tuner wich got it in 15 sec. After stop - start gps it got it in 2 sec. It was with 1.38.00.11 radio
So what's differents between 1.38.00.11 and 1.41.00.11?
Hi,
Flash the last rom radio, gps fix in 10s with this rom after update gps infos with qgps.
How can you do that ?
I don't know how qgps works.
Can somebody explain me ? It takes about 3 minutes to have a gps fix.
GREAT!
Installed,
GPS fix within 20 seconds.
Nadavi
@Nadavi and 006fazer
your gps fix was so fast coz you've used gps before (info about satelites were still actual).
Try to make cold start with gps info

you'll never know, htc doesn't publish radio changelogs.
Attached is a list of relevant string comparison between both radios, lines starting with ">" are only on radio 1.41, lines starting with "<" are only on radio 1.38.
You'll see there are some noticeable differences between them
i understand nothing at the changelog but i just want say that this site is definitely an amazing one !!

Not able to down load ROM
Hi ,
I clicked on your link ,and it directed to me to the HTC Down load Page.It asked for my SN number whuch I put in and I get this message.
Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device.
Can somebody please post this ROM in "rapidshare" or something.
Thank you,
Thomas
Does this one work with hardspl ?
No,it doesn't work even my device is a Asia one~
I need the link together to download about it.
Mirror: Rapidshare
Yes, I couldn't download it. The website just didn't recognize my serial number. Any advice?
New Asia Rom
Hi,
Thank you Sliders7 for the Rapidshare down load,I have flashed this new ROM , and I now have
ROM Version - 2.32.707.2(44800)
Radio Version-0.41.30.12
Protocol Version-12.41,30.16H
When I bought the model earlier from HK ,I had the following.
ROM Version 1.40.721.3(21259)
Radio:0.27.30.
Protocol version : 12.27.30.09H
Initially after my first Flash of this new Rom, I found the Jade very very slow and slugish,and the most importantly the Radio would not work.So I went back to the earlier Rom and I used Jade-Hard-SPL_V41 by Olinex.(I was using the earlier Version) and I Re flashed the Asia Rom again.
Every think worked perfectly now ,and this Rom is much better and definitely faster,than the earlier one ,and i feel it consumes less battery.Not sure if all this info, is of any use to any body.
But still surprised that HTC does not accept my SN even now.Maybe they are bringing out a different version for HK.This one seems to be the Singapore,KL version.
Regards,
Thomas

does this ROM have Simple CHINESE language ???
Ok here's my quick review of the ROM after using it a couple of days:
I have never flashed my current Jade with a third party ROM ever. I bought it with it's stock ROM from Maxis Mobile Malaysia (Malaysia's No. 1 Mobile Service Operator) and never modified it. I flashed this new ROM and I notice several improvements but also some downsides.
1. Much better Opera experience. Link selection is better. Opera is much more responsive to screen taps for selecting links, pages load fast and snappy.
2. GPS is fast and much better at geolocation.
3. We finally have the "Map Search" tab but it won't work until you install Google Maps on your device, which means you can't install Google Maps on your SD card which is bad since the map cache can take up to 40MB of memory on your device.
4. Much more free memory on the device.
5. Overall device is faster.
6. We now have slide to answer and slide to ignore by default in TouchFlo
7. Call volume is a little softer than before
8. Calls may drop sometimes but it's unclear if it's the phone's fault or the carrier error.
9. Touchflo's kinetic scrolling in favourite people tab and programs tab is a little choppy compared to the silky smooth scrolling for both these tabs in the stock ROM. Not a deal breaker though.
10. Camera is faster and smoother.
11. New htc boot screen
12. New Opera boot screen
That's about it I'll update more if I remember. Am I happy with the ROM upgrade? Yes I am...

If you update your ROM using official ROM provided by HTC, it won't affect your warranty. just download the file and run the installer, follow the on screen instruction, no need HSPL

protocol version 32.71.7020.12h
extrom version 1.23.405.103
nowadays no one reply in this forum very sad
I think your rom is the old one with no gps. I would flash hard spl on your phone and upgrade with a gps enabled rom. As for your TomTom have you got the data on your sd card? Because you will need to reinstall to your phone again after rom flash.

Come on, this forum is "staffed" by volunteers, and it's a weekend. So expecting a reply in less than an hour and a half is a wee bit optimistic.
As for a ROM that does GPS i think you will find most of the new ones do work with TomTom. i am currently using chanvi93's Ultralite WM6.1 ROM and my TomTom works just fine.
Looking at your Device Info, my Radio is the same.
ROM - 21014ULite
ROM date - 01/16/09

Protocol - 32.71.7020.12H
after that i put tomtom card and it installed the tomtom soft itself but still its. can u please tell me what should i choose in gps setting as it 4 to 5 options like wired gps, nema, other gps device and then it asks me to select gps connected so i selelct comport 9 and after that it says waiting for valid gps and it stays there any thing else and where i'm going wrong any help is appreciated thanks
br
What does TomTom say:
No GPS device
Waiting for a valid GPS signal
If 1 then it's not seeing the GPS itself, if 2 then patience is the order of the day.
You might like to do a search and install GPSTest, this will scan all COM ports and then connect to your GPS chip and then tell you what settings it is using. Also i have had mixed results using Q-GPS to speed up the time taken to get a fix.
FYI, mine is on COM9, 9600 baud, using "Built-in GS receiver"
it says waiting for valid gps and then if i go out for may be 5 to 10 mins still waitin fo valid gps flashed the lates radio as well 1.46 but no luck.
br
Have you tried GPS Test just to make sure that it is even seeing the GPS chip? I have known mine take a good 5 minutes to get a fix, and its worse sometimes if i dont stay still, am surrounded by buildings.

Help, P3600 upgrades

Hello,
sorry for this topic, but I'm new here and not too skilled, so I need a detailed help 'cause I'm getting crazy!!...
Well, I have a p3600 EN version,
WM5,
rom version 1.23.405.2 (dated 2007-03-11),
radio version 1.38.00.11,
ExtVersion 1.23.405.103.
I read everywhere that HTC released rom and radio upgrades which unlock GPS (that I actually don' t see),
so I tried to download the latest official rom version (I still don't know the code, it should be the 1.23.408...) from the HTC download area, but it makes me download ONLY the same rom version that I still have, the 1.23.405.2!!!
I tried to flash it anyway and nothing changed...
That's why the 405.2 may is the latest rom version available for my phone?
