Hello, I have HTC G1, it has old radio. I flashes a new rom, as I recall Nameless froyo. The thing I only get 2G and wi-fi is giving me an error. This thing is the same on other ROMs. But wi-fi worked on android 1.0 (RC7). So I was wondering, should new radio would solve this problem? My G1 is originally from T-mobile (UK). So what radio should i flash?
Thanks in advance.
you can try flash this Radio and HBOOT

Is this thing, that i find out could be the cuase for 3G? My phone LG Optimus supports 900/2100 HSDPA, and G1 only supports 2100 HSDPA. So I won;t get 3G in my area at all? I had earlier Samsung J750 witch supports 2100 HSDPA too, So 3G worked in another city. So I suppose, ehat I realised is correct. Now one thins, that bothers me, is why i can't turn on wi-fi? I get an error, though wi-fi worked on android 1.0 (RC7). I tried flashing both radios: 2.22.23.02 and 2.22.19.26i. So, I suppose, it's wrong kernel. Kernerl is 2.6.36.4-53-ezgb-v1.5.1f [email protected] #1
A new radio adn SPL solved this Shame about 3ŋ, but nothing i can do abou it. Thank you for support.
I have same issues, could you say what radio an spl you flashed to fix the error in wifi?
Thanks

First, sorry for my English; I'll do my best
I have Spanish Vodafone Diamond. I flashed using Unsigned HardSLP, NiAX Buffet 2.0, and Radio Radio 1.00.25.05. Later, I unlocked with the "free method".
If worked fine for me for some weeks, but I give to a friend who is using it now with other company (MoviStar). It worked for some hours but after that the phone couldn't get the network.
I tried first change to other Radio 1.03.25.18 (after Hard Reset), and it worked again only for only few hours. After that, no network again.
I tried also reflash again HardSLP + same ROM + Radio 1.00.25.05 but I can't get network again.
Any idea?
I had the same problem...
And a whole lot of others hihi.. Anyhow, in my case uploading Radio v1.05.25.BS14 (Quad Band)(Provided by Dutty) (NEW ONE) fixed the issue.. But I didn't get Radio 1.00.25.05 to work...
me too... i had the same problem...
I already tried 1.00.25.05, 08, and bs14, but no luck... can anyone figure out why?
Nobody have idea? ****...
could it be that the phone is barred by any chance?
I am currently using on my HTC TYTN 2
ROM: 3.34.721.2 WWE
Date : 09/30/08
Radio: 1.70.19.09
But I am getting reception problems "No Network" I have since found out this version of radio rom does not have manual slection between 3G and GSM network bands. I am currently on Vodafone. I have downloaded the original Vodafone Rom ver v1615_3.28.161.1. Can I re-flash my phone with this one?. The phone is already CID unlocked.

Hardspl your device and you can flash any rom you want Click under my signature (TyTNII) and read how to do it and other interesting things that you should know (wiki).
If that is a wm6/6.1 rom then that radio isn't a recommended one for those versions of windows. Check the radio thread in the stickies for more info.
Instead of reflashing an older rom, why not just try flashing the original radio first ? See if that work out better.

Did it work?
Rom upgrade went fine thanks, used the Sd card method.
The signal was fine on the first day. Signal lock is better at home, I still got the no service when I drive through the same streach of road. Battery drain marginally more 1% than the previous rom.
Everything was fine for 1 day. Then overnight it went into no service and would got get a signal . I had to perform a hard rest. Signal returned so far. I will report how I get on.
I see it is teh sam radio rom as the Vodafone uk version. Unless it is a compatibility issue with my HTC rom.

I think you should try different radios and see which of them work better, good luck
Hello,
I'm having some difficulties figuring out which update route I have to go with so I don't brick this baby.
I'm currently on Fido, and about once/week (usually on Mondays) I loose my 3G. I have to call these guys and get them to reset my internet connection. It then comes back. I am assuming this is crap that's coming from the parent network - rogers. Of curse CSRs are not trained, and they don't know anything about the waiver, nor signing the waiver, and then when I try to sign the waiver online it doesnt recognize my IMEI.
My goal is to update to a version that will (hopefully) fix this, and if I can get new CyanogenMod while at it, then why not. I would like to get the newest stable version. Priority is to fix the 3G dropping, so If I have to go for older CyanongenMod then let it be. Having said that, please tell me what my best route is .
This phone was previously on rogers. It says "Rogers" on the back, but this is not a standard out of the box rogers phone setup. My understanding is the previous owner has rooted it.
ADP1
Radio: 2.22.19.26I
RA-dream-v1.6.2
HBOOT-1.33.2005 (DREA21000)
Also my current kernel version: 2.6.29-00479-g3c7df37 android-build @ apa26 #19
I read all the wikis and Im still confused on the kernel part.
If you have a genuine ADP1, then you MOST DEFINITELY DO NOT get 3G on robbers. I guarantee it -- totally impossible.
If you mean that you are losing your DATA connection (from 2G/EDGE), then I believe you.
I don't know where exactly you live, but if you live in OTTAWA, TORONTO, EDMONTON, CALGARY, VANCOUVER, or WHISTLER, then I STRONGLY suggest that you ditch robbers *IMMEDIATELY* and switch to Wind/Globalive.
1) $40/month (if you sign up by 24th of this month) for UNLIMITED calling to anywhere in Canada OR USA, and UNLIMITED DATA, with NO time of day or other insane restrictions,
2) A genuine ADP1 ***IS*** compatible with 3G on Wind,
3) No contracts,
4) Aren't you completely sick of those buggers yet?
5) According to an investigation by the COMPETITION BUREAU (that resulted in a multi-million dollar penalty being levied against robbers), everything that robbers has ever said about the quality of Wind's network ***IS A LIE***. Wind actually has a HIGHER quality of service than Robbers. FEWER dropped calls.
6) You ***ARE*** allowed to tether... specifically, they actually say so.
7) Last, but not least, Wind doesn't play IMEI and/or RADIO VERSION games with you.
So hopefully, you live under Wind coverage. I switched a year ago, and couldn't be happier.
You have two choices here sign the waiver and keep a 2.xx radio or flash a 3.xx radio. I would recommend the first choice if you can do it because the 2.xx radios are more stable. The 3.xx radios would lock up randomly for me. The waiver wouldn't work for me either. I had to call them (Rogers) and get a technician to enter it manually. Also, the latest 2.xx radios give you more ram and make your phone much faster.

If you really can't get that to work see this guide. It may be out of date so let me know if you have any questions.

It says "Rogers" on the back of the phone so it obviously isn't an ADP1. The custom ROM probably says that because that was the phone it was originally meant for.

beav_35 - are you a Fido or Rogers customer?
The big questions is - how do I get Rogers to do this for me? They tell me they cannot escalate to level 2 because I am not a Rogers customer.
Where as fido doesn't have a waiver online or anything, and they just tell me "Sorry, this is not a Fido phone, so we cannot guarantee compatibility, just keep calling once a week to do your network refresh"
I'm a Rogers customer.
I guess your only choice is to flash the radio that they want. See the guide I linked to before.
Just so its clear the process should go something like this:
1) from fastboot flash 3.22.26.17 radio then a "R" recovery
2) reboot into recovery and flash your ROM and kernel port

So I should flash one of the CM's? I was thinking of following this "Upgrade_Rogers_Dream_Radio" guide (I cant post a link, just google) but then it tells me that a Prerequisite is CM 4.2 and that part confuses me.
I originally wrote that guide but some people have changed it around and added that. I think it is trying to say that you can't use a ROM that doesn't have an EBI1 kernel available for it. What ROM you have doesn't make a difference for flashing the radio. You just need to have a kernel for your radio before you can use your phone (flash a kernel port ontop of your current ROM or a new ROM). Make sure you always do a wipe before flashing a new ROM.
My phone is missing calls and texts, and about every 3 hours the phone part stops working. I've seen a bunch of comments from Rogers users that say their data goes down, and I've heard it's due to the radio. I think my phone goes down as well because on Telus, they don't have a GSM network so both data and voice/text is going through the 850/1900. I *think* that's what UMTS means; I could be mistaken.
So, after a lot of research, I think what I want to do is install a 2.xx radio on my phone, which means going from EBI1 to EBI0. MY QUESTIONS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
1. Does going EBI1 -> EBI0 by changing the radio to 2.22.23.02 change the radio frequencies? As in, will I still be able to connect to TELUS or is it going to change it to the 1700/2100 range? My research tells me NO but I wanted to double-check.
2. Am I going to lose 15MB of ram by making the switch?
3. I don't know what the correct sequence of stuff to make the switch is. From what I can tell, I've been told to use fastboot ONLY to do this switch:
a. Nandroid backup through amon-ra 1.7.0R
b. Flash 2.22.23.02 through amon-ra
c. Flash amon-ra 1.7.0 non-R verson
d. Install (e.g.) Cyanogen 6.1 again, but don't do the EBI1 kernel this time.
Reference: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6136326
Does that all look correct?
4. Maybe I can just go with this exact sequence?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139
Can I use my current SPL to do the flashing or should I start by changing over?
I've got a Rogers HTC Dream, running the latest Cyanogen 6.1, unlocked on TELUS' UMTS/HSDPA network (850/1900). From the FASTBOOT screen:
DREAM PVT 32B ENG S-OFF
HBOOT-1.33.2005 (DREA21000)
CPLD-4
RADIO-3.22.26.17

Thanks, from a clueless android newbie!
P.S. I think (?) this is my first post here, at least on the android side of the fence, so hi all!
So I took the plunge and did this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139
Of course, learning the following:
1. Careful means I don't brick my phone;
2. I was GAINING ~10MB of ram, not losing it, and
3. If I still get disconnects, it's either faulty hardware or TELUS' fault at this point.
Thanks for a great forum!
I am convinced it is the hardware. I had a magic at first with no connection problems, I traded someone for a Dream and have nothing but issues. Frustrating...

Um.. can't say for your phone.. but most people have 3g issues with 3.22.26.17 ... 3.22.20.17 and 2.22.28.25 are usually fine.. (well rogers policy of terminating your data plan aside on the theory it fixes the e911 bug in rogers original firmare [has nothing to do with the radio version its just what they use to check you have upgraded, actual bug was in the android java code].. but op left them for telus who will advise the customer update to a firmware w/o the bug.. but isn't checking what is installed on the end user's 3rd party phone)
I'm just not sure how well e911 works if you use 3g with 3.22.26.17 and lost network without the phone knowing.. at the very least it must take a long while to connect as it re-establishes the connection.. but as htc/rogers has not fixed it they are either not getting complaints, blaming it on the old version. Or everyone using it is stuck on 2g anyway since they want inbound calls to work.. thus bypassing the e911 part of the issue.. but making rogers "fast network" look very slow.I
Wow what a coincidence, I was going to post in this thread your Offical AOSP 2.2 rom because it is what i've been using for the past week with zero issues. I have decent 3g now with no disconnections!
have read so much guides and run various rom´s, but i can´t find a solution for my prob.
footing:
no 3g / h data service available with serval rom´s.
for me this look´s like a radio prob !?
description:
currend radio is "2_22_23_02"
now i get the radio versions
2.22.19.26
2.22.28.25
and a bunch of appropriate hboot versions 1.33.0013d, or 1.33.2005 ...
(no ram hack)
but every time i update to a newer radio version as "2_22_23_02" the phone loop´s before os is loading.
every try end´s with a downgrade to "2_22_23_02" or earlier versions.,
because they working (os is booting) but no 3g/h data network is available/shown.
is there any solution / fix / guide who describe this issue ?
thx in advance ^^

With the ROM updates, were you also loading a newer kernel as well? Some of the older ROM builds won't work properly with the new radios (i.e., 27.08+).
See Ezterry's kernel thread.
thx for the reply !
i use a 2.2 rom (galis-rom-beta1)
and a kernel update (ezgb-2636-v1.4f_S)
for me this is the best/stable setting, for my g1.
but yesterday night i´ve solved the prob
i processed these steps
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=983834
and now it works
the only difference to other tries was to wipe/remove the mtd partition.
i think that´s the vital clue
