You might be posting this in the wrong section of your brain The guys n gals on the board are generally a happy and helpful bunch, but we always prefer for you to make an effort, even the most feable attempt at failure, before asking questions asked a septendecillion times before.
Have a look at the index page, and you can probably match your device to a picture of your phone. Read the rules on the board (posted in the General thread). And please read everything you can on the wiki, or even google for it.
Basically, the radio rom is the bit that does the radio bit of your phone - communicating with the phone (which is basically a "radio"). You shouldn't need to upgrade the radio part of the phone if you're having no problems.
Upgrading the OS part of the phone will give you new software etc. But the radio is normally fine unless you specifically know that there's a better version around.
But read first, ask questions later.

Well, apparently there is no way to tell if your phone is CID unlocked just by looking at it. you can check out the thread about unlocking your device that-s in this forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
and do it. it doesn't hurt, and then you can be sure you have an unlocked device.
then you can flash any wizard ROM you like (provided you do have a Wizard, of course )
enjoy!

Yea just follow the guide. its pretty easy.

ok one last thing....my IPL and SPL are both currently 1.05....so do i need to downgrade first or can i just flash a new ROM straight away ?

anyone ???

No Sound!

hey guys, i unlocked my tilt 2 days ago. since then, i have only been able to place 1 outgoing call, and then i have to restart the phone. this is starting to get very annoying. there is no ringer, no volume, nothing.
Before you tell me to reflash my radio, i did. like 20 times. nothing
Whoever wrote that unlocking program messed up BIG time.....
Halp!

lol. rotfl..haha..sorry man.. just read read read that's all I can say.

why waste your energy typing? if you dont have anything worthwile to suggest, then GTFO

Change your Radio. The radio included in your new ROM does not the right one. do i search and find a compatible radio and it will work

thx capitan obvious!!! did you read my original post? i tried EVERY radio!!

You're not very polite
Besides, the unlocker worked perfectly for many many many people here, so i would not say that Olipro messed around here.but anyways...
did you reflash the same Radio Version all the time or did you try different ones?? I had Versions with which the same problem occured, no voice, no ringer, no sounds. 1.64.08.21 worked for me

Its really funny how you are the only individual that flashing the radio didn't help. And before you go talking about OLI, jocky and the likes that made the program so you could get rid of the bloat and flash works of art that this forum provides, I'd look inward and see if you might have done something wrong.
You know what, Im gonna make it real easy. If you have a 6.1 rom then you need a 6.1 radio. Same goes for 6.0. However some cooked roms are at$t specific and you have to have a at$t radio. A little more information such as the radio you are using and the rom would be really helpful.

haha simultanuous post and NO, your original post does NOT tell WHICH Radio Versions you tried...

Ok, why did you try to change radios? That rom comes with 1.64.08.21. Did you HR at the "Tap here to align" screen prior to setting up all your apps? Have you HR since this happened to see if it fixed it?

If ur pissed off at him , why are u impolite to me?
Listen and listen good...
YOU RADIO IS INCOMPATIBLE (means not compatible; not the right one).
Find a Compatible Radio that matches your dam ROM (whatever the f that is) READ READ and READ again..and find it.
There are experts and know 30000% more than u on this site..respect their help or dont post anymore.
Worst case scenario...revert back to your old ROM that work and leave us in peace

@ p1tater-and why would i want to delete all my data?
and 2, if the "experts" KNEW that their unlocker would f-up the radio, why wouldnt they fix it?

Please provide the following information so we can better assist:
Which ROM was installed? Please tell us what it says from Start /Settings / About and Device Information from your phone.
Which SIM unlocker did you use? Jockyw2001 or Olipro?
Are you sure that you've completed the unlocking successfully?

The unlockers have been used successfully time and time again. However, responsibility for it's results lie within your ability to accept failure and to follow through all the steps properly.
Continuing to lay blame on others is quickly making you lose the people trying to help you.

Holy Hell. The rom you pointed to came with a radio, that I know for a fact works. Why did you try to change radios? If it didnt work straight out of the box then you have a bad flash and the radio section is bad.
Edit:
I did feel bad for you and decided to come back and help but you wont listen so have fun playing with the nice new shiny brick you call a phone. You could get better reception from 2 cups and a string before I come back to help. I'm done.

1. no idea what my original ROM was, now im running "CE OS 5.219202 (build 19202 dutty's) v6.1
2. i used the olipro one
3. it said "phone unlocked" so im guessing it worked.
im not sure if i stated this before, i was running dutty's ROM for 2 weeks, and just recently (sunday) unlocked it.
for all those telling me to read the stickies, there is only one relevant to my situation, and it tells you to try a different radio. i did that. many times.
if i cant fix it, im selling this POS and getting an iphone

General queries before flashing HTC P3600i

Hi Guys
I have a HTC P3600i in Australia. I had a few queries before I try flashing my phone.
These are my current settings.
ROM Version: 3.00.707.18
ROM Date: 07/24/07
Radio Version: 1.46.30.11
Protocol Version: 32.79.7020.19H
Now I wanted to put Windows Mobile 6.1 into my PDA..
1) Which is the best combination of Hard SPL + Radio + ROM to put onto my mobile. Can you please provide links here.. I got totally lost on the forum..
2) If I flash and something goes wrong, or if later I want to put it back with its original ROM (found on the HTC website), is it possible to do?
3) Any other things I should know before flashing the three things mentioned above
4) Anything else you guys will recommend to put in to the mobile.
Thanks in advance u guys

NO the Hard SPL for P3600i (search for the thread) is only the Hard SPL.
As for ROM's it comes down to personal choice. There is a specific thread for P3600i ROMs that work, that is the best place to look....read...and make up your mind from there.

What about question 2??
its tough to get to know all those ROM.. can u suggest a few
thanks

OK:
1. Use the flashing tutorial at the top of the "Trinity upgrading" thread.
2. Flash with a ROM from the P3600I Rom Collection thread in the "Trinity Mobile 6" subforum.
Prob best to just go with the 31XiTNY ROMs as a good start... from there you can either decide to CBF and stick with it or try a few different ones... depends how keen you are on this stuff.
As for the risk of screwing things up, your only risk is first getting HardSPL on... if you can get that on and working fine, then a screwed-up ROM flash won't be an issue, you just start over again.
HardSPL has had over 1000 downloads from this week, and no one yet has reported having trouble flashing their P3600i, so I doubt you'll have any issues I know the first time I got into this I was ****ting myself wondering whether I made the wrong choice, but everything completed fine
Of course, you can never tell what will happen, etc. etc. lol so yeh up to you, but the benefits are definitely worth the risks lol

Funny you say that when people keep asking for a working HARD SPL for some of the P3600i because it simply doesn't work on all P3600i.
Did you miss that?

4 people out of over 1000 downloads isn't a big percentage. That and the fact that the OP is based in Australia and all of the australian P3600i from HTC work with Hard SPL (as far as we know) put the comment into context.
It is unfortunate that there are some out there who are not able to complete the HardSPL flash, but there isn't a lot that can be done. If you guys are adamant that the phone is a P3600i and the standard WWE ROM lashes ok on it then it should work with the HardSPL from Olipro.

Andych is right...
Plus now downloads are up to 1119 for HardSPL... 4 problems out of 1119 is something like 0.3%... so 99.7% have had NO problems.
I'd dare say that's statistically insignificant, and that the likelihood of this being a problem with HardSPL itself is low... or possibly some P3600i's are incompatible, unfortuneately - either way, if 99.7% of users have had success, I'd say that's pretty much everyone.

Ok..
So for
Hard SPL: I use Olipro 1.30
Radio: I use v1.56.70.11
ROM: any mentioned here on the thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=399779) recommended 31XiTNY
Is that right??
Also someone was telling me about Soft SPL. He has used it in his Herems. Does that work for us?? and how does it work?

Thanks for you statistics lesson ..
I understand your point of view guys .. but if one day you will be in this 0.3%
and everybody will keep tapping you on the back saying "sorry, it should work.." .. we will see how nice will be me calling you "statistically insignificant"

Robert....trust me....for 12 months we WERE the 0.3% so we know your frustration. The problem is that most of us flashed the HardSPL 3 months ago and as it is a Flash once operation it is impossible to replicate the errors you are having. The other difficult part is the that the Supreme genius Olipro who gave us the HardSPL is not fully engaged in his Diamond projects so I doubt he has either the time or the inclination to offer any assistance....sad, but that is the way life is.
I will re-read the problems you and the pther couple of psters are having and see if there are any other things you can try. I do remember though that you all had slightly different Error Codes, which is a concern.
Anyway, hang in there, I won;t get a real chance to read and digest the info before the weekend....but I will do it and post back in that thread.

If you wish I can provide IM and desktop sharing so that you can watch how I do it ... maybe it is us who do it wrong .. I am newbie in flashing but I have 10-12 years of PC experience .. so I doubt I can't follow a simple guide ...
PM me when you have 10 minutes and maybe we can sort this out ...

please help, cannot play the music under sleeping mode

I am using Dutty's V3.3 ( but I find that's not the problem of the rom but radio rom, I've tried Lost in Asia's rom as well) and I find that music stop when phone goes sleep! How can I solve the problem?
thanks all!

one more thing, is it impossible to flash back to the older version of radio rom?
can someone tell me the steps?thanks! (I'm afraid I did something wrong, I'm just wanna sure I make it right...><)
I heard that v1.13 works fine and no/slight difference with v1.14, right?
thanks a lot!

Sorry closing this thread by the same author, the thread has 2 posts and the total post count of the author is also 2.
1) How do you expext that we answer your music application problem as for me it works fine but there again I dont use media player. Now if you can tell me what application I am using then you could help me with my music issue and that is I cant get it to show the ablum art. (but that could be due to the fact I have not added that in the MPS file but you know that).
2) It is inpossible to flash back an old radio is a false satement,
its inpossible for you!
as may be you have not been to wiki,
maybe you dont know how to flash
Bottom line is you sure have not told us how you got that farand thus how can we help.
3) I heared (radio) implies that you have neither read the radio 1.14 or 1.13 thread or the major radio thread. You want us to recap over 500 posts and give you a sum up?

Help Flashing Blackstone With 6.5

Hi Guys,
I have been having a problem when i have been flashing my blackstone with miri's Rom. Whenever i try and boot up the OS the colours are all distorted and weird, and the phone function does not work on the handset. I really want 6.5 on my phone and I was wondering if you could tell me how to fix these issues.
Many Thanks
sjbanks

I'd read the tutorials about flashing, since you're not the first person having these problems. Good luck.

Please read the Dummies Guide first, before posting. Every day someone opens a thread just to ask the same question. You need to update your SPL to get all colors. See HERE
