Radio FW Question - Wildfire Android Development

Hello,
can i upragde only the radio fw version ?some people are reporting better battery life with the new baseband fw. And if so, can i flash back the old "downrev" fw back, if i had problems ?
From :
Radio_13.45.55.24_3.35.15.31.zip - OLD, standard in 2.1 Roms
to
Radio_13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25.zip - NEW in Chinise Froyo 2
I currently have the unrbanded wwe version 1.25.405.1 installed.

This is something I too would be interested to know. I have tried to do some serching but this is the first case I can find regarding the new 2.2 radio from the chinese rom.
I am currently on Puzzlerom 7.3
Once the v8 rom / v8.0.1 is stable I will go to that. Unless we have ourselfs a 2.2 froyo rom out before that. As I use my phone in a variety of ways and in multipule situations, I cant go without it for very long. 2 hrs at a time max.
Hope to be able to test things though ^_^
Peace

Just Made the update trough recovery .now iam running at the 2.1 Rom with the new radio firmware active from the new android 2.2 chinese rom. Actually I see no problems at all

All components are working fine (gsm/umts,wlan,gps and bluetooth).
Only the frst Time GPS FIX takes a bit longer after update.
Also, the battery life seems to be a bit longer and the handy seems
to be more stable during calls with active data connections.

Radio flash question

I upgraded my radio to p3droid. Today I flashed a new rom. So I was wondering if my radio gets downgraded back to original after flashing a new rom.
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
Don't honestly know the answer to whether the radio is flashed when flashing a new rom. I would expect since most radio updates appear to be separate update.zips that the rom doesn't upgrade radio. You can check under Settings>About Phone>Baseband Version. The latest I believe is C_01.3E.03P.
The radio does not get touched during a rom flash.
Thanks I noticed after checking original radio in Droid setting info and the version I have now. I forgot what the original version was but got it now. Thanks
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
I do believe the latest radio does require you to have Froyo... the earlier ones should work on any ROM. And the radio can be updated when you flash an update.zip ROM. It just depends on how the Dec has it set up.
The latest is C_01.43.01P - released with FRF84B
The one before that was C_01.41.00R - released with FRF57
And before that was C_01.3E.03P - the one released with 2.1 Eclair (ESE81)

Thanks. The only thing with new radio is it drops down to 1G alot. It sucks because it always seems to do it when I'm doing something important or downloading. Other wise it works much better than the original one I had.
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
I am currently on stock 2.1. The baseband since the update gives me a lot of issues at home 3g and switching to 1x. The new froyo rom should give me an updated baseband when it comes right? Otherwise I will have to get the previous basebands installed and root my phone?
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
No, I had similar question but when flashing roms it doesn't touch the baseband. I also have that issue mine drops to 1x alot also and is frustrating. But the older ones when I do searches on the internet it take almost 30 seconds for data transfer to start. The latest is quicker at that but the 1x drop is frustrating. To clearify again though the only way the baseband is updated or downgraded is by flashing it through an update zip or ota update. Roms don't affect it.
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
I should also add after flashing a rom, try reprogramming the phone by *228. It seems to help when I have issues after new rom. Also I installed a data disable widget. When it drops to 1x I disable the data connection for a minute or couple seconds and reactivate it usually returns to 3g when it comes back on.

Sprint radios?
How about using a Sprint radio on a Droid. IDK. I just got my Droid in the mail yesterday,got it rooted today and am working on checking out radio upgrades for it. I am coming from an CDMA HTC Hero200 from Sprint and with that phone we could put Verizon radio's and PRL's on them to up the coverage area and get better reception. My last one was a Sprint radio with a Verizon PRL and I had the best reception ever! Just some food for thought. If anybody has any valuable info on this I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks in advance!

Cannot connect to camera?? Huhh???

Anybody know what to do?

Your radio isn't correct for the ROM you're using, or your kernel isn't correct for the camera app you're using.

I did a restore, and came back to my original state before I flashed the theme.. still not working.. =/

Its not hardware
The Problem is not HARDWARE RELATED. i had the exact same problem and suffered for almost a month. there is NO definitive answer on google. ive searched and searched. ive done EVERYTHING from reseating the memory card to flashing weird kernels to applying pressure on the camera. BUT in the end the solution was very easy.
Solution : REVERT YOUR FIRMWARE TO FRF91. TOTAL STOCK and UNROOTED. it installs an old radio version and im almost certain the problem was due to the Radio version . i used AMON RA's latest recovery to do so. wipe EVERYTHING 3 times. and flash the zip. also.. you need to be rooted at first to install the recovery from terminal. if you're new to this recovery/flashing roms.. google it. its fairly simple.
this worked for me miraculously and i do hope it works for you all .
happy to help.

Anyone notice any differences?

Yes it can be flashed on 2.3.2. Too early to tell but nothing has exploded yet so that's always a good sign.
after flashing the radio(it flashed fine. much faster then flashing a radio on the N1) i noticed it connected to the network much faster than the old one. also, in the location im at now, data speed more than doubled! it went from 2.5mbps to nearly 6! i hope its that way when i get home too
i flashed it over the latest cm7 kang without any issue.
Thanks for this. Working nicely with CM7.
Seems reception is a little better.
Just curious what's MD5?

It's a hash function to check if the download is intact. A broken download can brick your phone.
Not checking MD5 is like going raw with a chick you picked up at a bar.

The new radio is awesome, I actually get reception in my apartment that's halfway below ground(on a hill), that I never got before. Almost no need for Wi-Fi Calling anymore. Scratch one problem with the phone off my list.
New radio is great. Bluetooth connection is now flawless whereas before it would always drop the media connection to my stereo (I assume the baseband governs the bluetooth radio as well?).
By the way, does anyone have the old radio .zip for 2.3.1? I downgraded to 2.3.1 to get the OTA update to 2.3.3 rather than the update.zip from the forum (in case the yellowy screen was a fault of a flawed update) and now i can't get the OTA because i still have the 2.3.3 baseband (i assume this is the reason i can't get the 2.3.2 OTA being as it has always been available when i was on 2.3.1 in the past.
Thanks in advance.
new radio works great .. i get better speed.. much better upload speed..... nexus always rules...
I feel like the wifi connects faster.

Is this an invalid question? If it is, sorry, I didn't know.
I thought it was a valid and actually a really good question. I haven't heard of anyone trying it though. You can revert back to the stock GB rom but I don't think that's what you're asking.

yes, i wanted to revert back to one of the custom roms. Since i had to update HBoot to flash ICS, i didnt know if a GB rom was dependent on the HBoot version. Or will reverting back to stock GB rom thr only way to use custom GB roms again?

I would suggest using thecubed's method which he posted over in the development section. Direct link is:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529669
safest way to do it I imagine would be to return to stock and then re flash a custom boot kernal and rom
OK, ill try to flash stock GB, then try to flash a custom Rom.
Hope it works out OK,
Thanks for your replies.
Just an update in case anyone was curious.
Flashed custom GB rom without reverting back to stock GB first and everything seems to be working fine. Phone booted with no problem and been playing with it for about 1 hour and no hiccups.
Been running HBOOT 1.85 from ICS with no issues with a GB Sense ROM for a few days now. Radio from ICS seems to be fine with the GB ROM also (don't seem to have any Ril issues).
That is good to know thanks for sharing.

Hi guys,
Just noting that although phone calls, GPS, data, and Wi-Fi don't seem to be an issue on a GB ROM using the ICS radio (3.02.4740.14_34.22.701040.19L), I do notice that the signal bars average 2 or 3 out of 5 in my area. When using an ICS ROM with the same radio, the average signal bars is around 4 or 5. As far as signal strength goes, I cannot tell the difference during usage. However, I do see that it shows less bars in GB versus that in ICS.

[Q] Htc J One htl22 ViperOne 4.3.0

Hi I have ordered a brand new phone Htc J One from Japan.I had the previous One X and I had intalled the ViperX4.0.6 edition which was great.I wonder if I install the ViperOne 4.3.0 which is for global Htc One,will I have any issues with the extra sdcard which has extra on board.Also the Lte will it works?cause I have noticed some questions in the forum without clear answers.
Thanks beforehand
sadly there is no custom ROM available for HTC J One HTL22
That was a kick in the balls ,but I hope that maybe a special release will come out,
thanks
yeah you should have done some research before ordering it
or waited for M8
That was the last think I had in my mind,I found a pennyworth at ebay,the J edition has the extra sd advance and I got it.That's ok
still..is it rootable?At least I have the root benefits

Hi,I tested both Roms but both have bugs.
The Android Revolution HD 61.1 crashes when you close bluetooth,radio does not work,bought apps cannot installed,bluetooth does not give you the abillity to call,sd is invisible,I havent noticed anything else yet ,but it's a fast rom.
The Renovate 2.1.0 is unworkable, you cannot control the touchscreen.
I have found this site from vietnam which gives many options for alternative roms
http://www.tinhte.vn/threads/htc-j-...oc-phat-trien-boi-huukhai-15-04-2014.2261036/
but still !! all the roms have issues with the touchscreen at list for me.
Maybe the vietnam htl22 have different drivers.
I take the roms from this site
http://htcsoku.info/htcsokudev/2013device/m7_wlj/dev/global_edition/beta/
it's japanese,they worked for me but still have various bus which it is announced.The best i tried is the HTC Sense 5.5 με Android 4.3 beta 1 it's very stable and fast,the only issue is the bluetooth calling
Also now I am installing the Viper Ver 6.0.1 from the vietnam site which I dont know if is ok yet but at least the screen works
HTL22 is a very strange phone without much interest from the developers ,sadly.I'm not from Japan.I bought it hoping that it could give the advance from the international version.But the extra sd was a huge exchange about the rom support which we dont enjoy.

Thanks for the reply Kurokeita,I haven't also thought about the ota update that I didn't received.I was on a harry to root it when I received it from the posts and I didn't update it. 9/10 roms that I have tried had the same issue with the screen.My problem now is that I havent the original stock recovery to flash it.I kept the stock kddi backup rom but not the stock recovery.Can I you post it?
Also I have tried the Viperonej 6.0.1 its great rom but a bit slow!My benchmarks droped to (antutu 25600 and quadrant 11650) with other roms I had 28450.The Android Revolution HD 61.1 was very fast but unstable.The rom is a little laggy and the radio don't work!I dont care for the nfc.The great issue for me is that bluetooth calling is working and I'm happy for this cause all the working roms I have tried were buggy with this issue.I am hoping for an update.
thanks man and I am hoping to sent me the boot.img

That id the stock 4.1.2 from KDDI, just download it and rename to PN07IMG and copy it to your ext-sdcard and then reboot into hboot, it then search for stock rom in the ext-sdcard and will ask if you want to update or not, just press the volume up button and the update process will start, after all is done, update your firmware to the newest version to get the lastest drivers and then once again update the stock 4.1.2 to get back to hboot 1.52 (all roms that have been ported to HTL22 will have touch screen issue on hboot 1.54, still haven't figured out why that happen yet), and flash recovery and flash the rom you want and all work fine\
About ARHD61.1 lagging issue, i'm not sure if that is just your device problem but when i used that rom i didn't notice any issue, try wipe cache and dalvik-cache and see if that solve your issue with lagging, about the radio, i don't used it so i have no idea, will ask others who used ARHD61.1 if they have encountered it or not
And here is the Renovate 2.2.0.2, make sure you full wipe before flash this rom so that Tweak app (it's like venom tweak) work properly
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B8smFc9Lui2tZGs5WktTbGduSjA/edit?pli=1 in my opinion this is the best rom that i ever used, flash it and use with kernel ElementalX 13.4 for best performance and battery life
Thanks about your support.I will try you the firmware update.I have the hboot 1.54.0000 and radio 1.23.11.1209 and its S-OFF.
About the ARHD61.1 is very fast ,it has a lot of bug maybe you confused with the viperone 6.0.1 I told,sorry.At ARHD61.1 I noticed varius bugs as:
invisible externalSD,when I open the bluetooth and the disable it the hol phone crashes,bought apps cannot installed.I always make a full wipe before installing from the option which give any rom.
The Viperone6.0.1 is very stable.The only issue is the radio bug and that it's a little laggy with low benchmarks.But it works fine.
I havent tried the ElementalX 13.4 cause I dont care about overclocking but as you say i will try it.
The major thing that I have noticed in evry rom is that the bluetooth works only for transer data or listen music when I tried to call it was dead.The only roms that worked properly was the viper 2.7 and the viper 601.The viper 2.7 is a tweked KDDI version with no error BUT it takes you 200mb ram away!you only see 1.5gb,its slow as the viper6 and contence the 4.2.2 android.
I will try to update the only thing I fear is that due to I live in Greece the update never wont come.I'LL SEE
Unfotunately my friend I rolled back the phone to hboot 1.52 and still I couldnt control the screen to Renovate 2.2.0.2 rom.I had done all the updates.I dont know what is wrong.I will return to the Viperone 6.10 and when a solution will come I will try again.
