I live in the US and have a SE Xperia X1i running on ATT. It is flashed it itje's v7 rom. Does anyone know of a good ATT radio?
I guess that would depend on where you live in the us.
I'm using 1.11.25.71 version in Norcal and I have a x1a. It's good enough for me, will give the newest one a try.
the 1.14.25.55 radio works like a charm. for me, its the best one. but it is worth trying them all.

Alright just saw this on Engadget, Telus will be releasing the phone this summer with a 449.99 no contract cost, I think that equates to like 470 American? Anyways here is the link!
http://www.telusmobility.com/on/pcs/handset_htc_p3100.shtml
EVDO capable!
looks like the taiwan version HTC P3702 Victor.
same hardware T-Mobile will use for it's Compact IV i think.
technically the devices are identical
I am almost 100% sure the image is just some stock photo Telus took. I don't even think it is a diamond. Just something to put up there for now.
i work at telus and have been waiting for this news since i first heard of the diamond. i guess this timing is supposed to counter the iphone release in canada july 11. they are not giving us any details, would not even confirm if it has gps. it seems hard to say as this is diffeerent than the gsm version of this handset. i can't wait to get my hands on one..... im torn on if i should give up my p4000 (titan) for this when it comes out

Currently, it says it'll have WIFI, Rev.A, and Telus Navigator, etc.
Those are the features that Vogue users on Telus have been fighting for so this could be a better alternative to waiting for a firmware upgrade... especially given the across-the-board improvements.
I'll bet that GPS is locked to Telus Navigator only... but at least it'll be active and I'm sure someone will free it before long.
Hi all,
Ive seen a few threads opened up but redirected to the radio thread with no answer.
Im pretty technical and have gone through a few phones. Ive got a Kaiser now and im in Australia on Telstra.
The threads that i have seen detail how if you are Telstra customer and are on a newer radio people you are talking to get your voice FADING in and FADING out
Can you assist?
Cheers
Anthony
bump - what no one has come across any fade issues?
Nah, none of us are daft enough to use telstra
Seriously though - I'm with three, never heard of this issue with the tytn. Theres a 1.70 radio available at HTC HongKong e-Club or through the Kaiser ROM thread, its easy to flash/upgrade - just connect your cable & run the exe. Maybe that'll help ?

I take it that means your flashing to the ROM I referred you to (detailed in your post on the ultimate radio thread at 11.38 yesterday) means the WWE Hong Kong ROM/Radio/SPL upgrade both I and snachez referred to has made no difference? If you've not been able to flash that ROM yet, give it a try first and let us know how you get on.
Update :
Flashed to HK SEA Radio 1.70.19.09
Certainly better than 1.71.xx.xx but still not 100%
Hmmm - i dont think im going to get much traction out of the new polaris roms but ill give it a shot and report back

Did you try the accompanying HK WWE ROM and HTC SPL 3.34 (the complete package) as well? If you have and you're still having probs then given that this combination has been found to work OK with at least one other Aussie network (from reports here at xda-dev), it's time to complain to Telstra and see what they have to say.

No i havent tried the complete package.
The problem is Telstra is unique with their nextG UMTS 850 network and as they didnt bring in the Kaiser to Australia they would laugh at you if you asked any questions (trust me i have some inside knowledge )
Its back to trying different roms.
i am in Au with telstra gsm (not 3g though) and have used multiple roms/radios with no issues with calls.

So given all the other feedback, will the complete SEA WWE ROM package be the first? Maybe someone with the ROM can verify whether the Connection Wizard lists Telstra as an option under Australias network options...
Hmmm if it comes to dire straits ill load the entire rom as suggested but the history of this phone and my gut tells me the problem is specific to the Radio ROM.
What ive learnt
This is only a Telstra NextG issue (not seen on optus/voda/3).
Specific to the 850UMTS band
Niki and Emo Radios similar results.
Im currently testing the new polaris Radio 1.59.44.02 and so far with better results. Its only been a day so far so ill post back ... again!
Telstra Kaiser owners feel free to bump this...
I don't have a Kaiser but a Polaris with Telstra and that runs fine @ 850 mhz with Polaris radio 1.59.44.02
Crystal clear reception and no fade in/out.
I believe the hardware in our two devices are similar/identical, so I don't think it's a network issue - I think you are on the right track trying different rom/radio combinations until you find one that works best. Good luck.

Your spot on .. POLARIS radio 1.59.44.02 has had the best results out of all so far.
People report they get the odd crackle but no fade in and or out.
What does HTC Australia say?
Hmm, given HTC have a presence in Australia and their recommended Radio for the TyTN II sold there currently shows 1.65.16.25 on their website (the one that gave me next to no GPS functionality when released here for UK customers), how has anyone done getting an official HTC solution to this problem with the TyTN II and the Aussie Telstra network? Is HTC Australia even aware of the problem? I hope they are more responsive that HTC here in the UK.

As far as I know there is no HTC Australia - only an importer. All of the HTC support for this region is run out of Asia, and in my experience, not too flash.
I've been using a TyTn II all year on the Telstra Next G network for my business (average 20 calls a day) and have flashed a few roms in that time but have never had anyone complain about sound quality with any of the Roms I've used. I use a Jawbone 2 bluetooth headset most of the time and I'm currently using the 3.34.721.2 WWE Rom with the 1.70.19.09 Radio and HardSPL 3.29 hard2 and can't recommend it highly enough, battery life is brilliant !!!
Hope this may be useful info.
Yes i have a question concerning about the 3G network for AT&T. I have read alot of sticky's, threads new and old and can't seem to get a definite answer to what i am looking for. I really didnt want to post this, but i have searched everything by going into the search tab at the top. So i was wondering does the version Diam100 from EU/Asia have the hardware to support 3G for AT&T. I know it says it in the tabs on the phone that it can recieve the 3G band, but i have read its the hardware that can't but they werent sure. I've also read that some people say it needs a newer radio and/or ROM to get 3G. I really dont want to flash a new radio onto my phone if i dont need it. Can someone so kind as to tell me if it is or it is not capable so i can decide to keep the phone or not.
Thank you ever so much,
Xero
EU/Asia diamond won't work in US, i even tired swapping a US radio into a Euro Diamond and still didn't work. Only US diamond with US radio will give you 3G.
Hope it helps.
Kinda figured. But how bout this. Can anybody answer this its most likely a no but im just curious. Can you add/change the hardware from inside to receive 3G? And if so how? I know the answer is a no but someone might of done it or figured it out without messing up the phone.
us vs north america

p3700 about to try udk's R3 i think its the latest htc stock radio 1.11.25.01
currently XBoxmods
I want an HD7 and wondered if any XDA-member could purchase one from o2 and i would pay them through PayPal and they could ship me the phone. I am in the US and on AT&T
Why don't you just go down to Walmart? They have them there already. Besides you'r on ATT and will get no 3g I thought with one from O2? I believe you need one from Telstra (Australian) network and your 3g will work.

I see the rebel sim cards are being developed for wp7 so perhaps 3g is still in the game if i get a tmobile version. I s being on edge versus 3g really that big of a difference anyway?
oh yeah, it's like swimming in tar lol (edge).
Isn't the phone Quad Band? Surely the device will work on all of the GSM networks?
I hope it's that or it's going to be quite a mission finding the right device to work on the right networks int the right countries.
in the u.s., the only 2 big gsm carriers (at$t, t-mo) operate on different bands. the rest of the world is ok lol, the telstra(sp) operates on at$t w/ 3g, any one else on t-mo gets edge.

Ah, ok
So would the T-Mobile HD7 work on standard GSM bands (900MHz and 1800MHz for South Africa)?
Just curious if the new radio for 6.0.1 is better than the ota radio from T-Mobile?

well, with radios, one could be much better for one person and much worse for another. we all have different signals and towers around, so your question has no real answer.
I'll be more specific, in the NYC area. Thanks.

again, thats not very specific. nyc is a big area. i live in nyc too. maybe if anyone lives on your street and goes to the same exact places you go.. you understand? anyways, i use the the 27r radio, on tmobile, and im very happy with it.
