[Q] Newer Hero radio than 2.42.01.04.27?

topic. is there a newer, more updated version of the hero radio version 2.42.01.04.27? i thought i saw somewhere 2.42.02.04.27.
thank you thank you
You know what is funny. There has been 115 views and no reply. Flipz usually has the radios before anyone else knows. Here are the latest--http://geekfor.me/category/hero/radios/
I know. thought I saw an 02.47 somewhere...
The last two sets of numbers in the radio number is the date. So .04.27 is from april 27. So from that you can see which ones are newer. Hope this helps.

New radios typically come from ruu's, whether test or final. And since sprint is done supporting the hero, don't expect anymore radios I would say (verizon is done with the eris as well)

[Q] interchangable?

Hey guys just a question regarding the roms for the one, I see for some reason development in the sprint one section is rather slow compared to the other versions. I see when I go to the general HTC one forum the roms say "supports all HTC one models" does this mean I can use on my sprint one? I would assume not because of radio issues?
Thanks in advance for the replys.
No. Only flash roms designed for the Sprint One. Give development time... It will pick up.

Quality over quantity. We have root, and a few ROMs. The Evo3D took forever to break in and just exploded after a bit.

Dev Edition ROM options?

I am seriously considering purchasing the dev. edition (for the 64GBs) , but never having used a device that is not carrier specific, I'm uncertain what my options would be regarding flashable ROMs. If I, as an example, got a t-mobile SIM and went month to month on their network, would I then be limited to ROMs written for the tmo HTC One? Or are the options in this specific forum the ones I should be choosing from?
I hope I've expressed my quandary clearly, and that it's not too naive - believe me, I searched.

i think your good for trickdroid rom
You'll be able to use any of the ROMs in this section.
You should also be fine to flash ROMs from the other HTC One forums (except Sprint) but the ROMs in the other forums are just copies from ROMs in this section anyway.
Thank you, Mr. Carter.

[Q] Why is Sprint so hard to make ROM's for?

I know it's CDMA and everything, but does that make a difference? And If it makes a huge difference and I'm just being stupid, please explain why? I want to flash ARHD to my One, but I can't since it doesn't work on Sprint!
It's not hard to make a rom for it but because of the hardware differences, it's impossible to make a cross flashable Rom for cdma and gsm.

Even for the One, which is the same across all carriers?

The One is the across all carriers, EXCEPT SPRINT. CDMA and GSM are completely different pieces of hardware, so one ROM cannot address both chips.

I was actually happy to leave CDMA carrier like Sprint and start using GSM phone which are more widely used and have far more development due to the fact they have the same hardware as their international counterparts

On of top that Sprint has such inconsistent and spotty service in many parts of the country. Some parts of the country Sprint compatible networks are all but absent.
There's a reason why Sprint subscribers can get such great price and package deals for their phones & data plans... Becausr they cannot hold onto customers who get lured in by the great deals, then as soon as they leave their comfortable metropolitan areas, they have zero signal in some random small town, where the average AT&T and Verizon customers have at least some phone service.

Using Aroma it is quite easy to do this. There were many ROMs in the EVO 3D forums that had one flash-able zip for GSM and CDMA phones. You just selected in Aroma. I believe Trick Droid for the One in the International forum is also like this.
And it is not harder to make ROMs for the Sprint version. It is just a matter of DEVs. There are more developers for the GSM version and some are more actively developing and therefore there are more ROMs available. Also they have a 4.2.2 kernel as is for their phone and there has not been one released for the Sprint version. Once there is a 4.2.2 Kernel available for the Sprint variant you'll see lots of movement.

Ahh, gotcha! Thanks!
Now I just get to sit here and wait for ARHD to work on Sprint. Maybe when 4.2.2 is released officially on Sprint, right? So then they can get the kernel?

I think once we get a SPrint 4.2.2 kernel/firmware there will be more crossover, mostly the difference in the the variants is at the kernel level.

I agree; I think people are waiting too. It's hard to invest a lot of time into developing a ROM when we'll get a 4.2 release "soon". Sometimes one can just diff to see what's different and incorporate the new features into an already made custom ROM (or vice versa), but it's easier and more stable to start over.

Now question. Since we have gsm capabilities. If we unlocked our devices in 90 days would we not be able to flash gsm roms?

Short answer is no.
I believe the Sprint phones are Hardware rev 0004 which means they would need a kernel for our specific hardware. It's mostly a kernel thing.

Question about CDMA and GSM One

Why is there such a huge difference between the Rom ability. I know it's a different network code but isn't the One able to run both anyways? Why are some roms GSM only. When I had my Photon nothing like that mattered.

Bump because seriously curious

As far as I know, almost all ones are the same, except for the sprint model. I believe the partitions are different on the sprint model, and flashing a ROM designed for anything else will not work.
