no problems here man. what area are you in?? maybe you have poor 3g coverage. I get hsdpa here is tysons, va pretty much all around.

same here, i don't have any problem with the data speed at all. I just did a speed test on it, and it show 1055kbps.

Pls post the radio for this US phone
Please dump and post the radio for this rom. I would like to try this on my regular (non-US) phone to see if I can get 3G at 850MHz.
Thanks.

the one on the US Diamond is just the regular .08 radio, you can get it in the radio thread. Also, many people have already tried and it doesn't work if you doesn't have a US version Diamond. No matter what you do on a Euro Diamond, it's not going to work.

Kaiser and HSUPA, what is the deal?

So my area is HSUPA, like a most places will be in the US within a month.. However, the Qualcomm MSM7200 in the Kaiser DOES support HSUPA but yet it doesn't work. (verifed locally with a pc card and got 1293kbit upload) I tried the new Sedna radio hoping that would fix it, but nope. Perhaps it is a registry fix? or disabled somewhere else?
This is huge not having this enabled. BIG difference
Nobody cares? You would think this would be a big deal for people
maybe no one find a tweak yet. using kaisertweak you can turn on HSPA. maybe wait a while longer for them to find a hack.
What's your frickin' hurry?

Geez, give people 24 hours at least!
Frankly speaking, I don't give HSUPA a f***ng care! On Tilt (aka Kaiser), Wifi G on Verizon FiOS 15Mbps down stream vs. HSDPA in Washington DC area, doesn't make any different!
i have HSPDA too, does that mena that i have to make a new thread for my self...
It's frilling amazing nobody is reading the OP, and the fact he's asking about HSUPA - not HSDPA, not the H symbol, not KaiserTweak, no the Kaiser doesn't support HSPA.
So you're telling us that the new radio firmware (WM 6.1 and post I presume) actually enables the missing HSUPA functionality now?
That would be a nice hidden upgrade since it was never supported before even though the chip supported it (much like the missing video drivers).
Is this only on the AT&T radio, or HTC mass deployed it also? Meantime, even though you're an at&t engineer, I doesn't explain why you're not getting UPA speeds. Are you sure the towers aren't capping UL, or it could be it's not really enabled on the Kaiser?
Does the FieldTest app tell you anything?

Best radio on Rogers Canada?

For those on Rogers, what do you find is the best radio to use with your Kaiser?
Try the one in my sig.. unless you're using that one.
I'm gunna try a bunch of other ones over the next few weeks, but i'll keep you posted.
FYI I'm with Fido but that shouldn't matter cuz Fido/Rogers uses the same cell towers.
I'll give it a shot. I'm currently using radio 1.58.16.27. I had read good things about it and it came pre-loaded on Dutty's latest ROM. I haven't tried any others yet. When I'm on the phone with this radio, it was crackling a bit but I'm unsure as to whether or not it was my phone or the phone with the person I was talking to. Only made one call as I just got my Kaiser the other day and have been playing around with the other great features of it.
Keep me posted on your findings. Thanks!
whatsup guys,
I've had my phone for a couple months now. 1.58.16.27 is, in my opinion, the best radio for me, in Ottawa. 1.64....21 works really well also.
btw, chek my sig for all radio downloads. I think I have uploaded most of them, if not all.
What's the RADIO thing?
How do you know if it's best or not?
I'm with Fido, and using Dutty April 9 Rom, do you guys have anything to suggest me?

If you check the ROM section in here you should be able to find your answer as to what exactly a RADIO rom is.
Now as for finding the best, each radio will have different effects for most people because of their locations plus carriers. So it's really hard to for someone else to tell you it's the "best" radio, that's something you have to find out yourself.. or have someone who uses the same carrier as you and that lives in the same general area as you.

I did do the search, but nothing was found. Maybe the definition of Radio is too simple to put it into words. I mean, as I understand it's simply a rom that connect to the frequency of the provider's tower...
The only reason I'm looking for it, is because I'm getting sick of having the Roaming logo on my phone. Because i'm with Fido and my phone is connect to Rogers tower.
You are using: 1.27.12.11... I'm using Dutty rom, and RAdio 1.58.16.27 now thou... should I go for yours instead?

the roaming logo will still be there no matter what radio u use...cuz ur still using a fido simcard...correct me if i am wrong...

Is that mean you have the roaming logo as well?
You'll get the roaming logo more often if your in the suburbs. Rogers is more predominant in the suburbs. Fido is more often found in Downtown Toronto or GTA.
Im using the radio on my sig for almost 3 weeks and reception and GPS is great. Battery life sucks though.
Im gonna back to the SEDNA radio 1.58.13.28 since i had a better battery life than this one.
i do have the logo but it doesnt show up cuz i'm using a vista theme with wisbar advance...i do this because it looks better...but having that triangle doesnt even bother me...not that big of a deal..cuz its not like i'm getting charged for roaming anyways...its because u have a fido sim card but using rogers towers..

Poor 3g Reception on HTC Diamond - HELP PLEASE

Hi guys,
Have just got a HTC Diamond. I've noticed it has very poor 3g or sometimes even E or g reception in places where my old phone worked fine.
Am very disappointed with this, as I really like the phone but practicality is also very important.
Is there anything I can do to improve the 3g reception please?
Have a search on this forum using the SEARCH function and put in bout H reception or 3G or bad reception.
I had problems with my HTC Touch Diamond, but after updating to the latest ROM version using the eclub i have found my Diamonds reception alot better.
What version of RADIO is your phone running? START, SETTINGS, SYSTEM TAB, DEVICE INFORMATION.
As far as i can tell from this forum, version 1.00.25.05 is the best RADIO out at the moment.
Hope this helps!

Let us monitor the strength of the radios
Hi!
I think, for me..bull****!
As I can remember from my trinity times (I loved them) there was a programm - I can't remember the name - which gave a lot of information of the radio!
As I used to flash my trinity very often I couldn't remember the rom/cooker which placed this tool!
Any suggenstions? Maybe tnyynt or udK or FInixNOver can remember?!
Thx!

unfortunatley the only improvement you will gain is by updating the radio, make sure you research it well before you attempt it if youre unsure of what youre doing.
Im not sure if i can link to external websites here but check out http://modmydiamond.info/

If you want a free, objective way to check the reception in your area BEFORE you lock yourself with a specific carrier, you should really check out “Got Reception?” (http://www.gotreception.com).

Service (Radio) Question

ok i have the HTC CDMA Sprint HERO.. and im woundering if there is anything i can do/install on my phone to improve 3G reception at my house... i have ify spots at my house where it just wont hold 3g.. is there like an external antenna i can plug in.. or can i wire one in... ive allready installed the radio update. but it didnt really help.. thanks for your time.. i hope someone can help me..
Try all of the radios, not just the most recent, some are better for some than others.
Also, if you call sprint and complain about splotchy coverage they may give you an AirRave - caveat: you have to have high speed internet for those to work.
well the AirRave thing wont work.. lol the reason why i need my phone in 3g is so i can teather it lol.. but do you happen to have a link for the radios?
and i just flash the radios zip file right? and it will over write the one i have installed now?

Yeah, Read the directions on that website.
Make sure you ONLY EVER get radios from this site OR this sub forum of XDA. This can brick your phone....
They flash a little differently than a rom. After you tell it the update.zip you want to flash, you will see it reboot to a different background image. If it appears stuck after a few minutes, roll your scroll wheel and see if the selection at the top changes. if it does, then its done.... I think... been a while...
Better yet...read the directions.

unless you've found a workaround, I don't believe tethering works over 3G on the Sprint network unless you have an EVO - tethering does work over WiFi with the Hero.

Flash an Eris based ROM. Note this this may break the Sprint apps (NFL, Nascar, etc Nav and TV will still work)

Dear Sir,
I had Unlocked the HTC ONE (Sprint).. Now a Problem is about the Data.
The Data Works fine and Well.
But the Problem is that Above the network signal instead of 3G, its written GSM, When Data or internet is ON.

Would be Great Help.
Thank you,
