Rom Identification for a Noob

I am trying to find information regarding the Rom that is on my HTC 8925.
When the phone boots up I do have a splash screen that says Dutty's Series.
I go into Settings>System>Device Information to find:
ROM version: Touch v6.1 WWE
ROM date: 02/19/08
Radio Version: 1.70.OliNex
Protocol version: 25.65.30.04h
What ROM do I have and where can I have find some information regarding this ROM? I have done some searches for Touch v6.1 WWE and Dutty v6.1 WWE, but to no avail.
Thank you in advance.

from the ROM date and the fact that u have a dutty's splash screen (which doesnt really accurately show what rom you are using) this would most likely be your rom.

Thank you for responding.
How do I update my radio?
I am pretty green, when it comes to modifying anything like this. Plus, I do not want to do anything that I could possibly render my phone useless for awhile, since I do not know what I am doing.
Thank you for your assistance.

Radio Upgrade
Do I really need to upgrade my radio?
I am frankly scared to death to do anything like this with my phone in the fear of bricking it.
Thank you.

Ill help you out. What you do is go into the radio thread and down load a different radio. I use 1.65.21.18 with Josh's new 6.5 super ram. When you download the file it will show up like a new rom. Flash it like you would a rom. and you are done. It really is trial and error to find the one that works best in your area. If you need any more help just let me know. I was the new guy not to long ago so I feel your pain. While in the radio thread read all the posts when you can and it will help.

I am not having issues with GPS or phone use. Do I really need to change my radio?

If everything is working ok for you then not really but the right radio will help with batt life and signal. Are you having any issues at all?

I have only had the phone about a month, so I am just trying to get use to it. So, If I am having trouble with signal and/or battery, I may not know it as of yet.
Once again, I am very leary about flashing.

I was to My first time, but once you learn how and get used to it you will love trying out different roms

I know exactly how you feel Grey, but I thought sod it, best bet (someone correct me if i am wrong) hold down the camera key and hold in the soft reset button. If it comes up with the tricolour screen and it says something like SPL-1.0.OliPof. If that comes up the scary bit has been done and someones already put HardSPL on the phone. Chances are they have if you already have a custom ROM on it.
Now the hard bit will be is what ROM to put on it. Just read how to flash it but the easiest way is to do it from the SD card, and always flash the HTC stock ROM between custom ROMS, it helps u avoid any problems.

How to determine my G1 is 32A or 32B

Hello,
I bought a HTC G1 with a local vendor in Brazil.
This Phone is running the JackXRom1.0 and I will update this Phone for the new Cyanogen ROM.
I see a tutorial on the Cyanogen Wiki.
In this tutorial I need to see if my device is 32A or 32B. I use this tutorial of the Cyanogen Wiki, but I don't see this information in my device.
Is there another way to see this information ?

Guys,
I solve this question, thanks.

Let me guess... you looked on the bootloader?

It may just be me, but I'm pretty sure G1 comes only in the lovely flavor of 32B, I've been wrong before though.

Question about the radio.

Im currently running modaco r22 an im looking to try out one of the froyo roms but i saw that i have to update my radio i was wondering if i update my radio so i can install the froyo rom if it will stay updated, if i dislike the the froyo rom an want to come back to modaco do i have to degrade the radio? or if i do a nandroid backup i dont have to worry about downgrading the radio?
(if anybody would like to help) *which is the best froyo rom?*

Wrong forum, this should be in Q&A. But if you want to go back to a non-Froyo ROM, you can flash a 4.03/4.04 radio just like you did the 4.06 to downgrade.

oh sorry for placing it in the wrong forum, so basically if i get a froyo rom an dislike it i just have to flash the radio i have now?

If you go to cyanogen 5.0.8 you don't need to downgrade radio. On any other non froyo rom you need to downgrade radio.

Some people get crazy when stuff's posted in the wrong place.
Basically, if you upgrade to CM 5.08 or a Froyo-based ROM, you'll need the 4.06 (Froyo) radio.
If you decide to go back to a 2.1 (non CM 5.08) ROM, you'll want to downgrade your radio as well, otherwise some things may not work properly (camera, etc.).

Thread moved to Q&A.

Oh ok thanks a lot tjsimm... I really appreciate it.

No problem. As for the ROMs, I've been enjoying Kang-o-Rama 0.9. It's now in Final, and it's rock solid. Haven't had any issues at all.

Newest radio/spl for sprint cdma hero

To start off, I'm not new to android just not that knowledgeable in the hero arena.
That being said, I know someone with a rooted sprint hero that hasn't been updated in quite some time as far as prl/radio/spl.
I was wondering if anyone could inform me of a good radio/spl combo. I have read a lot but don't know what is compatible with what here. I understand to flash to a sense rom and check for updates for the prl. I assume u do that first then flash to a rom of your choice, if u chose to, then flash the radio before the spl. Or is there a way to unroot to stock 2.1 to get new spl/radio/prl, then re root and just find a rom? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

no need to unroot, I would find the flashable sprint radio ends in 10.29 (search), then flash any sprint or sense rom (search) and update profile/prl, then find the eng-spl that darchstar put up and install it - if that's what you meant by spl. Good luck

Thanks for the fast reply bro. The eng spl was the only one I saw but was unsure if it was compatible with any radio as it doesn't work that way in the g1 my touch world. If they aren't compatible u end up with a shiny paperweight.
I can find those with no prob and am aware of what roms are out there and what I think I might try. I guess I'll get to work on it.
I assume I should do the updates in that order? Appreciate your feedback.

[Q] 32a and 32b

I know that 32a has more ram and different frequency than 32b but can i flash a 32a rom on a 32b? Will there be any difference in functionality?

if you do it may be slower because you do not have as much ram as a 32a dose

Thanks! I am kind of new to this stuff. I want to port a ROM that was made for 32A over to 32B. It's called Superhero - in mt3g section. Any tips on how to do that?

Sure I would like to know how. Do I have to know any type of programming language?

By the way, I flashed it thinking it was also for 32B g1. Then I flashed a 2708 kernel. It booted and everything but wifi was broken along with the camera.

thouse are thing things that need to be fixed for wifi the files in the zip need to be changed to use that will work for that rom also cam drivers need to be changed if iam not wrong on the cam part

I changed wlan.ko but it did not help. Anything else I should change? What files should I change to get the camera to work?
