Reception gone down after GPS upgrade?

When HTC first sold the P3600 they said they disabled the GPS chip set because it interfered with the GSM radio. From what I’ve been reading in some of the posts, some people are still experiencing a desensitized radio section after upgrading to the new GPS enabled ROM. Maybe this is why it is taking HTC so long to release the official ROM.
I’d like to hear from posters who have upgraded to the new ROM to see who has or has not seen their signal strength decline after the GPS ROM upgrade.

Mine is fine, still 3-4 bars. I use GSM850 out here in the wilds of Canada, though.

I had the same problems with signal after upgrading to dopod rom. However, I also updated radio to 1.38 and now GSM signal seems to be much better. Not excellent but reasonably good.

I've compared mine Running the Dopod Rom with radio 1.38 with a friends running the original non gps HTC rom and got the same signal,we were both using the Greek Cosmote network "Gsm 1800"and we had both selected the gsm band and disabled 3G .

Edge Connection Issue on Tilt

Just picked up a Tilt after defecting from Verizon for lack of decent/recent handsets.
I am running stock ROM & radio:
ROM 1.57.502.2
Radio 1.27.12.11
Build 18125
I noticed that while I am at work on MEdia Net/Edge I get voice but no data while the iPhone user sitting next to me has a fairly speedy edge connection. In his defense, he also has a Cingy 8125 that also has a great Edge connection in this location... It appears that there is a decent signal there, just not for my Tilt -
Any ideas?
Update Radio?
AKU 0.4.4?
Searched this prob & found nothing - sorry if I missed a giant sticky...
Thanks

I don't have the Tilt but the TyTn II. My problem is that I get slow Upload / Download speeds on my Edge connection i.e. about 100 kbs. When I put the same SIM Card in my HTC Touch I get speeds in excess of 200 kbs, so I gues my mobile operator cannot be blamed.
Tried different Radios including 1.27.12.17 and 1.27.12.32 but to no avail. any help will be apreciated.

Lost EDGE on flashing 6.0 to 6.1 ??

As title, TyTN 2, bought unlocked, about 18 months ago
A few weeks ago I flashed with HTC downloaded ROM - 6.1 version, official from their site..
Currently (now) on phone:
ROM 3.28.405
Radio 1.65.17.56
G 25.83.40.04H
Build 19212.1.0.3
I am in the UK and can put any SIM into the phone.
Orange and O2 have EDGE where I live and I used to get EDGE dataspeeds.
Now I don't see the E icon (but 3G and H work fine when I move into those areas).
IS it possible the new Rom will have stopped EDGE for me, or is it more likely the network has stopped EDGE for capacity, coverage or maintainance?
I am in a rural area in East Anglia and I know EDGE is a software upgrade to the base stations. And it used to work and I got up to 200k download, but now only 40k on GPRS (or faster on 3G or HSPDA).
Appreciate any pointers. CAN I force EDGE on the phone?
Cheers all.

GSM 2g Networks not working

After upgrading HTC DIAMOND ROM to wm 6.5, GSM services stopped working. Only 3G. Before wm 6.5, it worked finely, but now it only changes network automaticaly, if 3g is not present. Any ideas ?

Diamond on UMTS network?

Hi guys, I live in Bosnia and I have HTC Diamond. I am moving to Austria because I will study there. I am looking for network three(drei) and they have excellent packages but they are UMTS carrier. Will my Diamond work there?
Do I need to install some special radio or something?

Hi, I'm using my HTC Diamond in Italy under H3G UMTS network (Three Network -> apn: tre.it) and WM6.5.
No problem at all (using radio 1.13 or 1.17)
But I cannot surf in internet using Android (I don't know why?!?)

Ok. Tnx. Can you please tell me which Rom are you using exactly?

No problem with:
