2.17 Radio Rom? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading

Would someone mind extracting and uploading JUST the radio rom from summiter's 2.17 release? I upgraded just my radio to 2.25 when that solo upgrade was posted here, but now I'm thinking that I had better reception with the original radio that was in 2.17. I don't want to have to completely reflash to go back to it....so purty please, could someone post it?
Thanks.

I threw it into the Wiz ROMs upload directory. Let me know how it goes - I've been thinking about trying it myself, but I don't have a compelling reason to since my reception and general radio behavior have been quite good.

Thanks Summiter
I'm having trouble finding it though...I don't see a radio rom that was uploaded today (6/12) in any of the Wizard/* directories...

Riiight about here:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Wizard/Roms/2.17RadioOnly.exe

lol...well there it is (I wasn't in the Uploads directory...just the standard Wizard directory)
The update seemed to go fine and it's now reporting:
ROM - 2.17.7.2 WWE
Radio - 02.07.10
Protocol - 413.1.03
Windows Build 14947.2.0.0
Sitting on my desk before the update, I was searching for signal...I'm now back to 2-3 bars. I also noticed that the 2.25 radio rom running on the 2.17 was the first time that I've ever missed multiple text messages. Within the period of 2 days, I had 4-5 text messages sent to me that I never recieved....1 every now and then is expected...but not 4-5. I'm assuming it was the beta radio rom and hopefully this will clear things up. (I was also having several dropped calls like the others on the forum). I let you know how the update has changed things over the next week or so.
Thanks again!

Yes, it won't erase anything on your phone. Just download and run the program.

I was getting Invalid SIM when trying to send txt messages with 2.25 and the GPRS connection kept dropping and not automatically reconnecting. Guess that's why v2.25 was labeled as BETA :roll:

Which of the 2.25 Radio Roms were you using? (from the T-Mobile 2.24 Rom or the Cingular 2.25 Rom)
BTW, there are 4 different Radio only Rom Upgraders in this thread:

Need help
I applied the radio update. My phone boots up, but has an excalmation mark next to my reception indicator, meaning i have no reception at all now. worse than that, my computer cant recognise the phone at all now, saying no usb device connected. how do i roll back the changes?
thanks

Does anyone know how to tell me phone that I don't actually have 1 new voice message? It's been telling me that I do ever since the update and I can't get the notification to go away...even after calling my empty voicemail from the phone multiple times....

That used to happen to me with my MPX200. I was able to fix it by leaving myself a voicemail. Connect to VM from the notification, delete it and it should go away.

That did the trick. Thanks

I took the same approach though my result looks a bit different than Stangs55 has. I was very happy with the new functionality of the latest ROM but felt the radio side had gone backwards a bit. It went from being fantastic to be on par with my old Nokia 3650, which was no slouch.
In some very unscientific testing in my house, I'm see on average two bars improvement as well.
Cheers,
Tony

How's that there 2.17 radio working out for ya podna?

lol, well Summiter...I do believe that 2.17 is as near to a perfect 8125 rom that you can get ie: it's working out great. For shame on me for trying to switch to the newer 2.2+ roms. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
My wife and I are heading into the Texas hill country this weekend and I was going to wait and post some results after we got back...but so far the choice is obvious for me: In downtown Houston, the 2.17 radio offers considerably better reception and less dropped calls than both the stock and the 2.2+ roms. In fact, it was the 2.17 that saved my Cingular service in the first place as I almost payed the cancellation fees b/c I was so fed up with horrible reception/service. You saved my family $350 in cancellation fees, summiter .
So, yea, it's working out great. Thanks!

There's hills in Texas? We call those speedbumps here in California.. ;-)
Well that's interesting. If the radio that's released on Monday is problematic, I'm going to try 2.17 out for awhile. I'm hoping though that Cingular has thouroughly tested and blessed a radio that is as good. I remember way back when, I was the happiest with the entire 2.17 ROM myself.

not sure if this matter but isnt texas - houston(area to be specific) one ofthe 3g markets ?

Looking for 2.17 Radio ROM
Ok, maybe my eyes are getting tired,
Looks like someone removed the 2.17 Radio Rom from the FTP.
Can someone please post it back for me???
Thanks.

I've uploaded the radio rom only file here
Thanks - I've gone down to 02.19.11 from 2.47.11 because of the missed call problem. Will test for a week or so and let everyone know how it works out.
Finally a fix for U.S. users
The underlying problem was the newer radio stacks. The 2.19 Radio is on the FTP site under wizard rom;s tmobile. I can't take credit as see previous post, but thought it deserved it's own thread.
I can confirm it fixed the missed call problem U.S. Cingular 8125 on Cingular network. Overclock to 240 mhz and voicecommand 1.6 and wow smoking fast phone and bluetooth headset seems to work better!
I can't install that Radio Rom. It is in Italian and gives me some sort of error. Got an English or WWE copy by any chance? THanks for the tip!

How about sharing the source of the English version?????
The version I posted works on G3 and G4. Don't think there's an English installer yet for G4 devices. Just click avanti (next) until it flashes the radio rom.
Nice to see that 2.19.11 also works for the Cingular users!
A link to the file here!
This is VERY interesting! I had to drop Faria's 3.2 ROM because of this issue, even though it's been my favorite ROM so far. Has it had any affect on the battery drain? That was one of the other issues I contended with, however not near as big a concern as the calls/msgs not getting through. I'm looking forward to giving this another try.
FWIW, that is the Radio ROM I had, and this morning it installed fine. Maybe it had to do a couple of soft resets first. Anyway, I am hoping you nailed this one because I too like the Faria ROM best (and I also had the battery drain issue with it).
English Installer for the Dutch 2.19.11 Radio Rom.
Guys, i repackaged the Dutch T-mobile 2.19.11 Radio Rom with an English Installer. Go to this thread:
Wizard Radio Rom Only Updaters
It should work with both G3 and G4 chipsets as I used the same installer that is included in the other packages.
Enjoy...
Thanks, Kyphur - I'm right in the middle of reinstalling Faria's 3.2. This will make the radio update even easier.
Thanks, Kyphur! Now will one of you guys with Faria's 3.2 send it to me, because I can't find my copy and it has been pulled...argh....

Thanks folks
How is the signal with this Radio? The whole reason I went to the 2.47.11 is for better reception in areas where I had little to none. Has anyone really noticed a difference?
This was a great find, thanks. Now I can go back to the 3.2 roms I had to swear off because...well...if the phone doesn't work for phone calls, it's a doorstop.

Excellent, dont even notice any difference. I wonder what all these versions about.
mda reception
I just installed the aku3.2 rom and i notice 1 stripe more in reception.
before i had the 2.26 from T-mobile US and this one RUU_Molski.Biz_AKU2.3-226102_22610105_024711_WWE-30MB-CF2-G3. they both have 1 stripe reception where the 2.47 radio rom has 2-3 stripes.
I am going to say that it MAY have fixed or at least lessened the problem of the fast battery drain I was seeing with faria's ROM, too, and it is my favorite. This is most excellent.
It Works
Tried on molski with both cingular and Tmo, battery lasts longer and I have not missed any calls or had the phone require a reset!
YES....It works..!!
Thanks for the fix....!!!
Finally took time out to upgrade back to Faria's AKU 3.2 12mb and everything is working. Bluetooth is working better also, before...people could not hear me but I could here them (Motorola H700).
Dialpad works also....with & without Bluetooth...no more soft resetting.
I didn't say anything new....just confirming what's been said about the fix.....for USA T-Mobile users.
I installed the rom and downgraded to the Tmobile 02.19.11 UK radio rom (from the ftp). However, I am unable to make calls as it cannot connect to the network. There is an exclamation mark where the signal bars should be. I am O2 customer so I tried adding the network manually, but no joys.
Am I doing something wrong? Do I need a O2 2.19.11 uk rom?
Cheers
Chris
there is nothing different about this radio roms but the version number it has..
try the 2.25 t mobile rom this works also fine

As the old myth says that upgrading IPL/SPL will improve little performance and hangups plus getting your bootloader to the latest.. maybe giving you to a faster bootup.

Thanks, will have to try it tonight !!!!
I've been testing it for a few minutes and so far so good...
no significat changes/advantages though....
hmm i tried flashing the ipl/spl and its not changing from 2.26 but the phone is clearly unlocked..
n/m figured it out
How is it?
Any miss calls or better signals? faster bootup?
signal stays 100% and no calls yet; so i can't tell....
tonight I can tell more.
seems to be more signal..
Signal 10% stronger?
I have Phone Dashboard on my PPC, and it has a function that shows the signal strength. 2.19.11 I had around 86% signal strength but now with 2.69 I have 96%. Also my BS reading for powerdrain is still 64 mA so that's good, if all these reading at right. Can anyone else confirm some readings about signal strength and any power drain? Made a few test calls with my g.f wizard to mine, didnt' miss a call and tried sms everything seem fine.
Where the file locate?
Can someone tell me where the file nk.bnf located? thanks
Can someone upload these to www.putstuff.com? ?
Thanks

I have T-Mobile USA. I installed the 2.69 Radio last night and I love it. No missed calls (at least no one said they called and I didn't answer) and I used push mail with GPRS and didn't have dropped connection. I sent/received 46 emails with a 2 hours straight connection.
I think ill give these new updates about a month of hard testing before I decide to go with them. So far the ones Ive got work great so im not gonna worry about it right now.

Download works fine for me. Just put xda in for the password. I'll check it out and see if its a reasonable alternative for the 2.19.11 rom and my Cingular service!

Thanks, I finally was able to download it. One question before I upgrade. Maybe Faria can give his input. I am a T-mobile user currently on the 2.19.11 radio rom. This seems to be the best one overall for me since it allows both data and voice calls at the same time, there are no missed calls. But reception/signal is somewhat not good. Does this new radio give better reception for T-Mobile as well as allowing both data and voice?
Thanks
Great radio rom but isn't 2.69.11 newer then 2.40.11?
Well, right, it is newer most likely. The thing is, newer isn't necessarily better for each person's circumstance. Radios are tuned for particular providers in particular places and are usually matched with particular roms. However, in my case for example, with Cingular US service, and WM6 roms, my experience and that of many others is that the 2.19.11 T-mobile UK rom is the best. The others were inconsistent in alerting me to incoming calls and pending voicemails. However the data and sound was better with the newer radios. For me not missing calls was most important, so I stick with the older rom. But, this is a new one for me, and hope springs eternal, so I'll probably give it a try and see if I can have the best of both worlds like those T-Mobile guys.
Regards,
working well on farias "the real thing"?

From what I understand, 2.69.11 is the latest released German Radio rom, but 2.40.11 is a US released rom. So this may work better for US customers. I hope we can use 2.40.11 with WM6!
testing
in the midwest US of A baby.. smoke you!
Just installed it! I will post back my results.
Since I finally experienced the awful delay in SMS receiving on the 2.69 radio ROM (after several weeks of success, I missed 4 important text messages in an hour's timeframe), I'm game for this. Downloading now...
So far my signal seems to be much better than 2.19 radio. but only time will tell.

I too am now noticing a delay\lack of SMS\Voicemail Msg after WEEKS of 2.69 working like a charm. I thought I was one of the lucking ones but now I am not so sure. Who knows how long this has been happening. Anyway, downloaded and installing right now.
Working great on WM2005 .
thanx Faria .
by the way...this is a US radio.....sorry i cant name the carrier at the moment.
I've installed this on my Cingular 8125 on the Cingular network last night. I received a test sms and another SMS from a friend in a timely manner. All test calls I've put through have worked so far. I was even downloading a webpage with Opera and phoned in and the call came through. So far so good... Tomorrow (Monday) will be the real test when I'm back to work, but I'll try to give it a workout today.
thanks for the info so far and please continue to post information on this rom and its working with wm6
P.S.-Sorry for not being able to also post information but in what i do missing a call/calls or missing a sms/sms' would cost me alot of $$$$$...(so thanks for being guinea pigs...poor pigs lol)
First timer dumb question
Hi. I am running Nottoosmart's system with radio 2.19. Things have been pretty stable, but there are times when I've had to reboot in order to reacquire the phone carrier after sleep (e.g. softreset). Also, subjectively I believe I have some signal problems when in places where there is already a weak signal.
So, bottom, line, I am considering trying this radio.
But, I have never flashed a radio before and I'd like to avoid having this become a "federal project." So a few questions:
1. I can flash the radio back and forth (e.g. ->2.40, ->2.19) *without* touching the OS (e.g. wm6 rom/ram), is that correct?
2. There are several executables in the zip: EnterBootloader.exe, romupdateutility.exe, RUUGetInfo.exe; I realize there are tutorials ad infinitum posted here, but can someone help me save some time by letting me know how to install the radio, do I just run "romupdateutility" over activesync, or is there more to do?
Please don't flame. I am an engineer, just not experienced in burning radios to MDA's. I assume the radio goes into a portion of rom that is dedicated to the phone processor of the OMAP chip?

Hello,
1) You can flash the Radio rom without messing with the OS. All of your settings and files will not be affected. It does not require a hard reset.
2) Just run the romupdateutility.exe. It works the same when you flash a new os rom, it just takes a fraction of the time due to the fact you are only flashing the radio. I just connect via USB and let activesync do its thing then run romupdateutility.exe, the program will kill activesync itself.
I hope this helps.

Radio ROM 2.71.11 + Fix?

Where does it come from?
I thought the 2.69 was the newest release
2.71.11 is newest radio rom for kjam.i am using last 3 days.very nice,no miss call or internet problem.very good signal.by the way i am using molski 2.26 wm5 final rom.you can find radio 2.71.11 under the wm6/the boring rom title.good luck
Should I install the fix if I get the new radio?
I'm not usually an early adopter for new roms, but I decided to throw this one on and give it a go. Glad I did. So far, I've seen a very marked improvement for both signal strength as well as the time to recover signal compared to both the 2.19 and 2.69 radio roms. I'm presently using it with the Cingular fix, so I can't comment on whether or not it's needed. Hopefully this continues to work well. The strength is fantastic. Using on Tmobile in nothern New England.
Miss calls on this 2.71.11?
Lets share our experience with the 2.71.11
Phone locks up after about 1 in every 3 calls.
IPL:2.21.0001
SPL:2.21.Olip
Radio:2.27.11 w/XDA Cingular fix 2
Ext Rom: TNT.1933
I have been using Radio 2.71.11 since it was posted and have had not one problem with it. I do get better reception. Battery drain is the same. When I first flashed radio 2.71.11 I added the radio fix cab and it showed no connection and searching, so I uninstalled the cab and all is fine?
just a thought, matbe you have to have IPL/SPL 226 or 308 for the radio to function properly
ipl/spl 308 bluetooth issue
i have an mda vario t-mobile in the uk on pay monthly. since the 308 rom in december, the bluetooth has done weird things. i can now run my motorola stereo headphones on the rom software instead of using the zoki bt cab which fixed the skipping tracks on the previous rom, but now my vario won't talk to my tomtom. an error message saying that it can't find the 'voice gateway' flashes up on the tomtom (one xl), momentarily before the tt tells me it can't find the services on the phone.
hmmm.. is there a way round this apart from sell the phone?

Lets share our experience with the 2.71.11

Although I am hesitant to attribute it to the radio rom upgrade, since installing the radio rom 2.71.11 on my phone missed calls have shown up as they should and my particular wm6 rom is known to have an issue with missed calls where they show up as "received calls" when gprs is active.
I'm unaware of any other changes which would have corrected this.
I can also state the rom has been performing well for me..I tether heavily and response has been nice...previously I was on the 2.69.11 rom which would occasionally "go off into limbo" and have to be reset on long tethering sessions..so far *looks for wood to knock on..settles on using his own skull* this has not occured on 2.71.11
I will give a try(as sson as my battery charges over 50% ) than I'll report here
flashing now...I'll report back soon...
Hi,
That is a nice version.
How can I install this ROM and do I loose all my settings when installing it?
Many Thanks
Does anyone know if this fixed the 8125's phone and data issue? I am having the issue and would like to know if I need to downgrade to the 2.1* radios or if this will resolve the issue.
And secondly... (OK totally noob here) I still need to CID unlock this phone with hard-SPL? or would it be better to use SoftSPL so I don't void my warranty?
Thanks,
SoBBie
PS the issue I am referring to is post in any places. It is that you will drop a call if your phone tries to connect to the internet.
Data rates went up but missed calls
I have wm6 tnt 1933 series rom date 9/30/07 ipl/spl 2.26
Mspeed test went up to 70kb from 39kb radio rom 2.19.11.
I never received calls and never received vm reminder.
If it matters I have the cingular fix installed.
Anyone have such issues.
Edit
switched back to 2.19.11
upgraded to ipl/spl 3.08
mspeed test went up to 70kb plus
received all calls
upgraded to 2.71.11
lost the E icon only shows G
mspeed test stayed around 70kb and up
No calls coming in
going back to 2.19.11
about: calls
2 day using this radio report:
No missed calls " about time"
Good battery performance
Good signal recovering
4 to 5 bar of signal all the time
signal
The signal is not the best
But i probe the 2.61 and I have always much better signal

I use wm6 tnt 1933 and had the same issues. I would have a whole day of missed calls with no voicemail reminder. I have the cingular fix installed but there is still no improvement. I just flashed to 2.71 so I will let you know how this works in a couple of days.

Been using it on my wizard. good battery, great signal... don't seem to have any missed calls with Octavio's 6.0
It really is a much improved radio! Before, when I was out and about, somewhere between 10 and 20 feet inside the doors of Walmart and Costco, I would lose signal. Now I can go anywhere within those two metal-clad warehouses and never lose signal...even receiving and making calls within!
Needless to say, I'm very pleased.
missed calls have shown up...
Hi,
After installing the radio rom 2.71.11 on my phone (K-Jam with TNT 1921 rom) missed calls have shown up In one day I missed 3 (out of 8) calls. Additionally my phone locked up (just freezed!) while I was trying to make a call.. So, I switched back to 2.69.11
Cheers,
Orhan
I have been using it from the last two days and no missed calls and great signal.
Same here...no missed calls...been using it over a week now.
works great so far, no miss calls.
Been on my phone for weeks and I have better signal, About the same battery life.
Works Great
I had microphone and speaker voice scrambling and noise issues with older Radios apart 2.19 and 2.25 but this is even better
Thanks
testing it now...I'll let ya know...
*edit* I'm not finding any better reception...will continue to test though...
I had this for weeks now and I have no problems at all too.
The signal icon doesn't update
I have the Black Diamond 3.1 rom on my T-mobile MDA, updated from
a 2.25.xx radio verison to 2.71.11 and now my signal icon doesn't update. its stuck on whatever signal i have upon startup. I thought at first i was getting great signal everywhere, then my calls started dropping with 5 bars and i restarted and it showed 1 bar instead.
Anyone else have this problem? Anyone else using the 2.71.11 radio with the Black Diamond 3.1 rom?
Hi,
That is a nice version.
How can I install this ROM and do I loose all my settings when installing it?
Many Thanks
been using it for a week.... upgraded from 2.69.11.
seems stable and has better strength, but cannot confirm if it has absolute improvement over 2.69.11 until further testing.

Just flash previous version of only Radio ROM. If this does not work for any reason, flash your stock ROM.

Hi,
Do I have to put ActiveSync in Guest Mode before running the Radio ROM reflash or can I leave the ActiveSync Partnership intact?
Thanks.
Everyone is hoping and praying that there is a new radio that combines the stability and great battery life of radio 2.19 with better reception like 2.61. 2.71.11 might be it, but its soo new its hard to tell right now.

Vikasmestry, but since it doesn't work out for you here's a good alternative:
http://rapidshare.com/files/84722422/T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radio_Only.zip.html
Its the T-Mobile UK 2.19 Radio I spoke about. This is considered one of the most stable (no missed calls) with great battery life and a good signal. Its being used by all versions of the Wizard and in nearly all countries by someone. So don't let the T-Mobile and UK description bother you.
Download, unzip and run the ROMUpdateUtility.
I've been using this radio for a week now, seems OK. I think the signal strength is a little better then 2.69 and the power consumption is about the same. No missed calls, but the missed call radio tweak is still installed in my wizard.
