wondering.....? what is the difference between a regular rom and a radio rom?

[Superman369]

wondering.....? what is the difference between a regular rom and a radio rom?

These just change your radio, it wont erase your info or change anything else, unlike a reg ROM which will erase your device and change your regisrty and all that jazz:)

[D/\SH]

wondering.....? what is the difference between a regular rom and a radio rom?

a rom is the operating system on the phone like xp or vista and the radio is what gives the phone signal and picks up the signal from towers of your provider.

[AppleButter]

ok right now that makes sense for what a radio does on your phone so in theory could you actually make a phone that works on sprint work on the verizon network by just changing the radio on it. in theory...

[Superman369]

I dont think so because verizon runs on a different chipset. i"ve heard of people doing it on certain phones, dont know how true it is though.

[AppleButter]

ok so then that is a completly different hardware thing and probably wont work then what would be the point in flashing the radio of your phone? will it make it faster and if it does i would like to do that aswell which would be the best to use

[Superman369]

I'm not an expert on radios and such, so I would wait for Kaos, Dash, or one of the other ROM developers to answer this. There really the guys in the know when it comes to these things.

[D/\SH]

no the radio wont make the phone faster the pagepool does. the radio just focuses on the signal for the most part. the pagepool is built in to the rom that increases the speed and functionality of the phone as well as other reg edits. i would recommend reading up on going custom rom wise since that seems to be what you are wanting from your device.

[AppleButter]

Yea i am looking to customize my phone i am actually wanting to make my own rom as suggested in my other thread but i am just trying to understand all of the process before i start. If there is like a information page or if someone has posted info on all of this if you could point me in that direction that would be great.

it would be impossible to do so on roms and radios because it would never stop growing since new things are found and added to kitchens all the time... the best way is to ask questions and search google..... we are here to help and dont mind the question being asked :>

Has anyone tried this radio yet? I've been having some trouble getting my touch pro going on evdo and it occured that there could even be something in the radio. I tried calling Sprint but they took the cop-out route that there are towers with trouble in my area. Possible, but it seems a mighty big coincidence that it happened at the same time I was switching phones. (Mogul was fine on ev the day I got the TP)

i use the telus radio myself and i love it and have no troubles with evdo.... i know alot of places with all the storms are having trouble with reception at the moment..... i would maby try a different radio since it isnt going to hurt than wait a a couple dasy if that doesnt fix your problem.....

hey bro, hows the telus radio working out for ya?? signal and battery life better, or the same??

im looking on updating my radio but i dunno if to upgrade to sprints latest or telus

[D/\SH]

im looking on updating my radio but i dunno if to upgrade to sprints latest or telus

the battery life is great and i really dont think that i have ever dropped a call on it...

[crazaytalent]

So, theoretically... if I flash my radio (hopefully to a better one) itll increase signal stregnth to my phone> thus minimizing quadband a reception changes > thus improving battery performance?

Not to mention, better gps locks, and all the other benefits a stronger signal will give you, right?

[nadcicle]

Call me crazy but i really think telus knows how to make a radio!! I switched from the 1.11 to the telus 1.04 and went from 1 to 2 bars and it switching from ev to 1x every 10 seconds to 3 to 4 bars and ALWAYS on ev!! I imagine the battery is going to have a huge advantage from this.

I'll never use another sprint radio if this is the benefit of using outsiders radios. TY TY

hahahah no troubles i have been telling everyone the same thing since the day this radio was released and ripped from that device and service provider.

Hi..
Don't know if this has been asked but can i flash these new radio's on a stock ROM or do I also have to flash a ROM? I tried flashing the telus and sprint radio and both times i got an error stating that the ROMutility does not work with my phone...

Have u unlocked your phone?

yes you can flash on stock but your phone needs to be unlocked

[bigmax19]

yup...unlocked it and everything...

[D/\SH]

yup...unlocked it and everything...

with the error you are receiving you have NOT unlocked your device.

[bigmax19]

In the tri color bars, at the top, it says security unlocked...

[D/\SH]

In the tri color bars, at the top, it says security unlocked...

what does it say under that.... like the numbers.

[Sh0wNuF]

In the tri color bars, at the top, it says security unlocked...

a lot of them say unlocked but you have to run the touch pro unlocker found on this site and you will be golden to update the radio. Also the unlocker and the radio won't reset your device's data so your contacts and stuff will still be there

Wow...so many things missing from that post. LOL, ok....what ROM are you running?(there are quite a few out) 2. What radio are you trying to get to work?(there are 6 listed here) 3. What error are you getting? 4. Is your phone unlocked?

i'm gonna take a wild guess, but from his post, it sounds like his phone isn't unlocked and that he has no idea what flashing a rom is...i would suggest he reads the flashing guide

[PHE-NOM]

question staff, my phone is unlocked, running jugg's rom, all i need to do is run the ruu.exe and im good? thanks.

Just flash it just like a ROM and it will work fine. Its the same process, looks the same and everything, it just doesnt clear your memory. So your good to go.

you can start it from your reg phone screen. You dont have to manually do it.

[PHE-NOM]

okay i tried it and didn't do anything. i ran the romupdate utility.exe, thats the right one right? because the is also a ruu_signed.nbh file in there. which one should i be running? sorry for the noob questions, ha ha ha

[littledaisy]

ok guys here's my input on the Telus Radio on Juggalo's Rom...as soon as i flashed the new radio i went from 2 signal bars to 5...SERIOUSLY!! super stoked! it hasnt been 10 minutes since i flashed it and its already showing positive results. hope this helps anybody who wants to give the telus radio a shot :)

ha ha ha, yeah i flash to this telus radio, and i still got 90% on my battery, and i havent charged my phone since 2 nights ago!!! plus the signal is great!!! at this rate i probably will only charge my phone twice a week!!! thank bro.

[gbogart100]

Question, if I had a phone that had a bad ESN, would flashing a new ROM or radio, or a radio for a different carrier get the phone working again? Is there a way to fix a phone with a ba ESN?

[D/\SH]

Question, if I had a phone that had a bad ESN, would flashing a new ROM or radio, or a radio for a different carrier get the phone working again? Is there a way to fix a phone with a ba ESN?

you would ahve to clone the esn..... you can find info on this through google......

[crazaytalent]

Question, if I had a phone that had a bad ESN, would flashing a new ROM or radio, or a radio for a different carrier get the phone working again? Is there a way to fix a phone with a ba ESN?

Nah... having a bad esn doesnt affect the functions or usability of the phone... that just means that phones serial number was registered as lost or stolen... flashing rom or radios will make no difference, because the problem is that, you wont find any carriers or service willing to activate it for their service will its coming up stolen or missing... only way around it is to change the esn, but depending on the phone model that may or may not be possible, like if its for the touch/vogue, their is a method i believe, u can find if you search he site, but i dont think there is a methed for the touch pro...

ha ha ha, yeah i flash to this telus radio, and i still got 90% on my battery, and i havent charged my phone since 2 nights ago!!! plus the signal is great!!! at this rate i probably will only charge my phone twice a week!!! thank bro.

I've been running this set up for the past month also, but can't imagine staying 90% battery life as you. I always have to switch to my spare battery by 4/5/6 PM depending on my usage.

I'm guessing your a casual surfer?? light txter?? Give me some more info if you can plz, (ex.) If you added any registry tweaks etc.


thanks

actually im a casual browser, SUPER MEGA HEAVY TEXTER, and maybe 1 hour of talk time a day... :) as far as tweaks...only tweak ive added would be one of taylorAMJ's battery tweaks and like i said juggs rom with telus radio...thats all :)

here's a quick rundown of todays usage...3 phone calls about 10 to 15 minutes each, 46 text messages, about 30 minutes of internet browsing and used my phone as GPS for about 25 minutes...my battery as we speak stands at 68%....i dont think thats bad at all... :)

[NeMeS|S]

another one that finally trusted me on this haha

Hahaha Dash....I knew you wouldn't let me down. The Telus radio is nutts....Go CAnucks! *I being one*
Anyhow here is the rundown that I said i would give in regards to the Telus radio and Juggs Rom for ~1 wk, Taking phone off charger @6:30am

Appx 1 hr talk time total, Web surf abt 1hr, Email sync for every 30 min...I get enough emails..hahah, 50-70 texts, Palringo for roughly 30-45min. 30min of games. Only programs i have running throughout the day is Touch lock pro. By 6pm i am sitting around 52%.

A couple of notes though.....
1. when i remove the Pro from the charger, battery drops to 95% withing 3 min, but holds.
2. for some reason, when using palringo, even with power save on, i can see the % life drop, more so than with syncing email or with games.
3. I am using the Taylor cab, with the the Poll interval set to 1250....buttah.

*Conclusion* PALRINGO IS A VAMPIRE!
Without use of palringo, I have noticed that by the same time in the evening ~6pm, i have roughly 70%....

Hope this helps answer any questions.

i have not added any battery registry tweeks, the only registry tweek im using is the "increase mms size limit" tweek. im a light web surfer, but i do use the phone alot. i probably surf 1 hour a day. from the staff comments, mighty IS pretty good. try it and let me know bro.

[D/\SH]

yup, since i told someone i would i flashed to the mightyrom yesterday and will give more details about battery life and whatever else i find in a day or so. hopefully the telus radio still is kicking some ass on this rom.

[NeMeS|S]

Was gonna do the same thing. I have been hearing so much about this rom but also heard the drama about not giving Jugg propz. Now that it seems that it is water under the bridge, I plan on flashing and giving an update. Hope my previous info helped.

[jayvon2304]

I tried updating to the Sprint Raphael Radio V1.11.00F on my TP and the screen hangs at 0% when it says its uploading the rom.The phone is correctly set up on ActiveSync because the program recognized my old Stock Radio. I ran the RomUpdateUtility.exe file and followed the steps but I havent had any luck completing the process. Is there a step I'm missing or what?

[D/\SH]

have you unlocked your device? have you tried to reboot the pc? have you tried a different pc?

[DJCaSpER]

im using the telus 1.04.05 radio. in phone calls 1x is at full bars and dont drop, but when not in a phone call ev sig is low like 1 or 2 bars and some times 3 bars. but i do have to say though when i make a phone call its so clear when the other person is talking. thanks for the update on the telus.

[TaylorSPJ]

i would go to settings and change to 1x only.....if your calls are on 1x and data only uses 1x..(texting,picture mms, ect) sitting there at low idle in ev is only really wasting battery goin back an forth like that.....only thing thats uses ev is internet and youtube, and other apps that use it but not many.

[DJCaSpER]

ok im having great phone calls but kinda laggie web surfing. i understand what ur saying for what they both do and i know that. but is there a way to boost both sigs and not just 1. or is it u get 1 and not the other? because im always on my tp on the enternet like right now and i want speed for doing what i do but also what clear phone calls. is there a radio that does both sigs justice as in 1x and ev?

[kbshowtyme]

Thanks for the radio update Im glad you noted it as new but Im lost as hell where is the update rom......I dont know what version to download

[Beejis]

Hope this isn't too stupid of a question (probably is though ;) )but can I use the Diamond radio on my TP? I've tried all the other radios here except for the diamond one.

[DJCaSpER]

hey dash if i relock my tp u think that might inprove my sig?

[PHE-NOM]

hey dash if i relock my tp u think that might inprove my sig?

if by sig you mean signal than no. a radio will do that. try the telus radio, so far the best i believe. it's what i run now.

[DJCaSpER]

thats what im using. if u read my pervious post on the page before this 1 u know that. as i stated in that post my sig is great in phone calls but when im on the net on my tp my ev sig is low and my net response is laggy. witch uses ev sig and phone calls use 1x. sorry if im being rude

[DenverDev]

ok right now that makes sense for what a radio does on your phone so in theory could you actually make a phone that works on sprint work on the verizon network by just changing the radio on it. in theory...


one important aspect of the radio system of the phone is that the phone has to be able to interpret the radio signal......which (more experienced people feel free to fix this) is why ROMS are often cooked for specific carriers....if not for a specific carrier then carrier cabs and prl files have to be installed so that the phone knows what to do with the radio system that it is "listening" to....

For instance, I know that I can use KAOS take 5 ROM (originally written for Sprint if i am not mistaken) and install it on my device, utilize the carrier cab for Cricket ( my service provider) and the appropriate PRL file and use the ROM....will everything necessarily work perfectly right off the bat, no...it wont....then I would have to do some registry tweaks etc to get things like internet and mms to work properly...

But, if the radio version is not talking to my carrier, what good does everything else do? nada...zip...zilch...

Somewhere i saw a list of compatible radios and ROMs.....i didnt subscribe to that thread so i will have to do some digging and maybe i can come up with it again......

HTH

[DJCaSpER]

i know what u mean. i use only radios i can use on my tp. yes the take 5 is sprint. i have that on my mogul, and thats a great rom. i didn't have to chang the radio though, i wanted to but really didnt need to. but on my tp it'ss different ive used like 4 differet radios now and still thhey all have the same out come. but i do have to say that the telus radio it's so clear during phone calls in 1x but in ev when not in phone calls thats were i have my problems. thats why i asked in my other post is there a radio for both sig's or is it u get 1 and not the other.

Five Boroughs of New Yorks

anyone have any radio choices for this area?

Im in the Bx and manhattan all day... so Is broski, and I believe hell confirm... stick to the sprin radios for NYC... 1.0.3 or 1.11... doesnt seem to make too much of a difference... actually personally 1.0.3 seem to run just a bit cooler w/ slight more signal stregnth... but 1.11 is pretty much just as sharp... im on 1.11 cuz Ive been too lazy to flash back... but I think broski prefers 1.11... either way, Id suggest sticking to sprint radios in general!

[crazaytalent]

^^^^Bump Bump^^^^ updated with US cellular radio!!

[broSki]

just seen an update now, i wonder hows us cellular running....man fcuk that ill stay on sprint 1.11 man, love it n its the best...and ur right crazay i wont move from 1.11 till there is another sprint radio.

im gonna give it a shot :glasses1:

[Metalmayhem]

ok so I've been using the US Cellular radio since it was released and my take on it is not that good. It seems to lock me in on 1x rather than evdo(when using data) more than often(at my house). with the sprint or telus radio I would never have that problem. I also feel like it gets my touch pro hotter than the others. still haven't really tested the gps.


will be testing more thoroughly, but I have a feeling I will be going back to the sprint 1.11 or telus.

The general idea is that the sprint and telus are the 2 best radios. Cant go wrong with either one, but try both out to see which suits you best.

testing the newest release of the sprint radio for not quite a day and so far so good.... (on mr5 rom) i was on the uscellular radio and that was just utter garbage and the battery life was horrible.... ill let you kno what i think of the sprint after a little more testing. i was on the telus radio since date of release and will prolly go back to it unless the new sprint one blows me out of the water.... so for me as of now:

1. us cellular radio is horrible on your battery and the reception sucks.
2. telus radio is great and gave me great battery life and signal
3. sprint 1.11 radio so far so good will update this with more as i test further.

[deuceklub]

Telus seems to do well, but I don't know if the new ROM without TouchFlo is responsible for the battery. Radio seems that it may be getting hung up, things seem to come through a little sporatic. Going to the Spring 1.11 we'll see how that goes.

mmmm never had this trouble with the telus radio and i have ran in on roms with and without touvhflo built into them

Any update on this yet?

[nadcicle]

After further testing with the 1.11 vs the telus 1.04.05 i've seen that for me in the nashville area that the 1.11 switches from 1x to ev far to often and the telus stays on ev almost always until you make a phone call.

With that being said. If you don't think it makes a different then you're wrong. Switching from 1x to ev will actually piss you off if you are using internet on the phone cause you will be crawling very slowly instead of it being worth using. Might not hurt on the phone call side of things though. The 1.11 did "seem" to give me gps locks better, but that will just have to be the only downside of me using the telus one vs sprint. I like my gps, but i like having a usable phone better.

The 1x and ev switching also takes a tole on the battery life because of it always refreshing your internet connection when you have programs set to auto download and having it on ev makes things go so much more smoothly.

Now if I could just get the best of both worth and have functionaliy AND usability then I'd be set for good.

yup i noticed the same in the grand rapids, mi 49505 area..... telus is the best fit for me and always in evdo no matter what..... the speeds are great on the internet and with all data transfers and the gps for me locks on tremendously fast........ the second best radio is the newest sprint and the worst for me would have to be the uscellular.

I just tried upgrading to this radio but it gave me this error "Invalid Model ID" "This update utility cannot be used for your PDA phone. Please check your update utility". Do i need to flask back a stock sprint rom?(running SsS-ROMv0117)

thats because these radios are for the diamond and the touch pro and won't work on your touch...If you have the touch pro make sure it is unlocked and you update your profile

well than go ahead and download and than flash as you would a rom and you will have no troubles.... and btw you may want to update your profile. and for the error your not trying to flash this raio over to a gsm deivice are you? liek the fuze for instance?

That's the thing Dash, it won't let me, it gives me the error i mentioned before, and updating the profile in my phone is another issue, it gives me error code :407, i just got off the phone with sprint to try to update the profile, first thing the asked "why do you want to do that?" to which I didn't know what to say bc i don't what that's for lol, anyway i said "Im just trying to see what it does", the guy said he was sending me an update and that i had to dialed *2 which im in the process of right now, it's still programming.

huh they prolly just updated your prl would be my guess... and if that doesnt work i will dig up a cab from my laptop when the boss leaves in a bout 45 minutes and that shoudl allow you to be able to have those work.... also did you make sure that you downloaded the sprint version of the rom?

[fanaticny]

im still getting the same damn "Error Code: 407", i guess the update never happened, and i just got off the phone with sprint again, this sucks. And yes im flashing back to a sprint rom, here's the name of the file "StockSprintHermanOSBigstorageRUU_dumped".

just an fyi the only time I ever got the update profile to work was right after I activated my phone and it needed to update to get my data working so I think it is only for if you need it updated to get data to work (don't quote me cause I really have no idea what it does, this is just my conjecture) also, the prl updated helps you find a different tower to get a better signal and I believe that if it doesn't update then there are no better towers in range.

Ok thanks for the info, I still can't update the radio, or flash back to stock(to see if then I can update the radio), not sure what's the problem, when i flashed to "SsS-ROMv0117" everything was a breeze.

lol I made a mistake, that wasn't the title i was refering to lol, i meant "Stock ROM links for CDMA Touch PRO (all CARRIERS)", which is the other threat, but I just tried updating the radio and it didn't work, just to make sure im working with the right radio, this is the name "Sprint Radio V1.11.00F R", is that the right one for the Pro??

yes the ones in this thread are for the pro..... and dont know why you would be getting the errors if you are truely unlocked.... i would now update all your settings on the stock rom and than try again.... odesnt make any since that it wouldnt work if yoy are truly unlocked.

ok ok this question just came to mind, now that I have the stock rom, did it lock itself again? I though it would be unlock even after going to stock, so I didn't run the unlocker, could that be my problem now?

once you unlock it it will stay unlocked unless you manually relock the phone yourself.... flashing to a stock rom will not revery you to having the bootloader locked down again.

What do these radio packages actually do? What is the point of using them? Are they updates to the radio that is shipped with the device? I guess what I'm trying to ask is, what are these actually used for; what would one hope to achieve by using one of these radios instead of what's already on your device?

well basically think of a radio as your wifi router for your pc...... you get a better router it can be found at a farther distance with a stronger signal.... the radio does the same for you but since it is off of cell towers and all cell towers are in different areas different radios will pick them up better...... in the noth east its the telus radio, for the south and southeast seems to be the sprint radio...... where are you located ast and hope this helps you better understand the concept of a radio.

cool thanks for sharing with us :) the phone ringer sooner can only be changed by chaging the slot cycle index from ##778#...... and im waiting for supes review in the northeast area sicne i have been stuck on telus for a while...... i know verizon/alltel is the main provider in my area (jsut above sprint) so may work good :)

Ya i've tryed out the telus seeing that everyone had the best reviews about and ive even seen people with it advertised in there sigs. But when i tryed it my signal was bouncing all over the place i was missing calls and my bat died faster then i can charge it. Even in the thread about whats the best radio it listed that in sanfran telus was the best... 9 time outta 10 its prob because im on metro and i've heard that verizon and metro have some kinda deal with there towers so maybe thats why im getting the good results... thanx guys!

[Superman369]

Allright, I haven't run this radio through its full course or anything yet, but I gott say. After 2 days of testing this bad boy with heavy-moderate everyday useage, I am extremely suprised and impressed. I have had full signal at almost all times and locations(In/outside buildings, even underground!) and my battery seems to have imporved slightly. I mean, Im on SSS ROM 119, and I added my 250 battery tweak and that combined with this radio gave me 24 hours of battery power. I took it off charger yesterday around noon.....went on the boardwalk all day, made calls, did text/MMSing, went on pal a little, checked AMJ a couple times, then came home and fell asleep with the phone off the charger. Just checked the phone about 20 minutes ago. Now it didnt have alot of power left (only 10%) but it still did have a acharge. Thats phenominal battery performance. I have also yet to drop a call. So all in all, pretty satisfied with this VZW radio. I;m gonna REALLY work this bad boy for the next couple days to see how it stands up. I'll keep you guys posted.

Just a little info for anyone looking at using one of these radios in the Tri-State area of California/Arizona/Nevada. I'm actually 90 miles south of Las Vegas. I've been doing a few tests over the last couple days, driving to different parts of town and such. So far all the Sprint radios seem to work about the same, no noticeable difference between them. They all managed to stay within the one to full bar range, never dropping out of EVDO signal. I've used both the Telus and the Alltel radio and both performed pretty much the same, most of the time staying at the 0-2 bar range. I never did see them drop to 1x though, only when a call was being made, that actually goes for the Sprint Radios as well (not sure if that's normal or not). The last radio that I used and am currently using is, the VZW Raphael v1.03.03v R, and I gotta say I'm loving it. It almost always manages to stay at the full bar range, i have yet to have a dropped call. Those are my 2 cents, hope that helps someone.
Oh, one question, I've read through most of this thread and didn't see anyone ask so I guess I will (sorry if someone did and I missed it). Anyway, does anyone know if this is something that can be charged to your bill? Since techniqually I am using another providers service.

Just a little info for anyone looking at using one of these radios in the Tri-State area of California/Arizona/Nevada. I'm actually 90 miles south of Las Vegas. I've been doing a few tests over the last couple days, driving to different parts of town and such. So far all the Sprint radios seem to work about the same, no noticeable difference between them. They all managed to stay within the one to full bar range, never dropping out of EVDO signal. I've used both the Telus and the Alltel radio and both performed pretty much the same, most of the time staying at the 0-2 bar range. I never did see them drop to 1x though, only when a call was being made, that actually goes for the Sprint Radios as well (not sure if that's normal or not). The last radio that I used and am currently using is, the VZW Raphael v1.03.03v R, and I gotta say I'm loving it. It almost always manages to stay at the full bar range, i have yet to have a dropped call. Those are my 2 cents, hope that helps someone.

thanks for the full review andno you cannot and will not be charged for using a different radio..... a radio is internal and just tells the hone how to pick up signal and on how to process it per say.... there is no way that they can tell what radio you are on without lookiing at the boot up screen and many sprint reps dont even know what those numbers mean.... you will be fine and trust me NO WAT WHAT-SO-EVER :smile: so smile and enjoy and damn i think i got to try the verizon radio for the frist time since i have been using telus since release sicne by far best here in the norteast and throughout michigan fully.

i have a huge issue with the battery on this phone/smartphones in general, and i hope this is just what the doctor ordered! and another thing, a suggestion. in the noob area there should be in bold print -pick a rom, find the best radio for your area, start reading!- that's what every noob wants to know. because after that it's like whoever puts in the most work has the sickest phone with the most goodies. i love ya AMJ!

we cant make everything be in the noob area..... i feel the noob area is already loaded with stuff and radios are mentioned quitre A bit on the boards.... theres always going to be new radios, new devices, new radip updates, etc.... and would think anbout adding it to the flashing guide but i couldnt see anywhere else it could be placed.

[only1penny]

i think the flashing guide would be perfect. just so a noob could go "radio, i'll have to look into that." like i said the site is fab and everything is out there for sure. and let new people read and search and read. but a simple direction arrow would've been great for me.....that's all i'm sayin' now go test that verizon radio and give us your michigan feed back. we want your opinion cause you're the master!

[havox22]

that Verizon 1.03.09 gives me the best battery & signal so far out of all of them, was on telus but i couldnt make it 12 hours when i went out & my signal kept jumping around with the Verizon 1.03.09 1 i can make it thru the day & i get a stedy good signal thru out the day

hahahhaha word and yea i will get that added to the flashing guide and retitle it so others no it includes radios now too..... but so far so good on the verizon radio.... havent got a full day of testing yet but the signal even in my basement is better than it was and the battery life seems to be lasting longetr thus far since i did put it through hell yesterday... bump this thread tonight guys and i will give a full review with all different aspects covered in it.

does this work for the touch pro on sprint?

[only1penny]

does this work for the touch pro on sprint?
i have the tpro from sprint and it's workin real nice for me. if by working you mean using a different radio than the one that came with the phone. read the whole thread, you'll find what you're looking for.

[only1penny]

i've been on the new verizon radio for just a day and i haven't been able to check battery life, though it's no worse than the telus. however, i did notice reception difference. i work in a freezer at a warehouse in wixom, mi. not much gets good service there, but it's known that verizon does hold the best signal. so i decided to flash the new v radio and it has been a great decision! more bars....anywhere. i believe the battery life is better too but i'll have to monitor over a longer period. so if anyone is using that great telus radio here on the eastside of MI i would suggest giving the new v radio a spin. and that's what i think

i have to agree. in grand rapids michigan the verizon radio does get the same battery as the telus life wise but hte signal strenght with the verizon radio is a much better difference even in my basement when i was getting just about 1-2 bars if i was lucky and now im at 2-3 steady :) loving it so far and going pretty damn well if i should say so myself...... i would recommend if verizon is the main in your area to go and give this radio a whirl.

Real world test would be at least the 3MB file, but if you're getting those speeds then more power to you.

I personally like the new telus radio though. Went up a bar or two in service.

Tried the 1.12 alltel and it just didn't work well at all here in Nashville. It got stuck on 1x for like 4 minutes after soft reset.

I was under the impression that they were seperate and that uscellular and telus both just had radios with the same 1.07.06f and that uscellular was attatched under the attatchments and that you had to go up top to get the telus one.

That goes without saying that I don't know if they are identical or not.

when i went to flash the new telus, the image version in the rom utility says v1.00.000

[tlpalmer01]

my brain must not be working today..dash r u on the telus 1.04 or 1.07?

[PsyChoTk]

Ok, both the US Cellular and Telus Radios(v1.07.06f) show v1.00.000 when I tried to flash either/both of them to my TP.

Usually the image version shows the Radio version, so I have NOT flashed the radio because of this above. Or is this a "glitch" and after flashing the radio shows the proper radio number?

As I said above I'm running Sprint v1.11.00, but maybe BigJew can provide some advice here, which is:"

Which radio is better for Central Florida, Sprint v1.11.00 or Telus 1.04.05? I've read numerous posts and the results are mixed at best.]

As a side note I've ran radio v1.11.00 and the stock radio and both drop out and have dead zones in the identical places. But the battery life seems better with v1.11.00.

but instead of wasting time flashing and monitering it, i figured i'd cut out the fat. and since Big Jew is just south of me, and has "insider" insite, i'm asking his opinion.

stupid question, can I use telus radio or spront radio even tho cricket is my service provider???

yes you can... but i suggest having a back up cricket radio or cricket stock rom to flash, just in case you find those other radio's not to be suitable for you network, or area, etc...

I think you need a new caps lock key :P

Anyways the touch pro (at least in my opinion) seems to get poorer reception than other phones.(my gfs touch at my house seems to connect better to EVDO than my touch pro which bounces from 1X and EVDO)

All you can do is try the different radios and if they dont help, well your out of luck.

I remember getting that error code when I unlocked my phone with the wrong unlocker, so make sure you are using the right unlocker and then flash to the radio of your choice, you shouldn't have any problems after that.

Thanks for the feedback bro always very usefull .

thats because telus is from canada and works better in the upper north and states close to the canadian border.... i would try wither the newest spritn or the verizon radio in your area.

[johnfm]

I have a question. I am currently on the SERO (very inexpensive) plan with sprint and do not want to get booted for roaming too much. Does changing the radio say to verizon make me officially roaming according to sprint?

I know question 1 can answer myself by just tryin it, i just want your input, thanks.

I'm on the border of lower southwest Michigan and northern Indiana and currently on Sprints 1.11.00f radio. Seems to be pretty good in this area. I've heard there's a newer sprint radio(1.14.25.35). Anybody try this one out yet? Dash, you say Telus works good in GR, how about K-zoo and the southern towns?? Tried looking for coverage maps, but no luck!

in kzoo and down south it is great!! i have never had any troubles with it thus far and has always performed good everywhere unless im in the middle of nowhere where no provider has service.... iwould def give this a shot and you dont have much to lose if you think about it since you can change it back easily and it doesnt hard reset your device when you flash one as long as you use the ruu folder that it comes in :)

[dloco69]

Hey Dash, tried the newer telus radio, works great down here. Battery life is much much better and my signal is better than ever. Even quicker downloads using Opera 9.7 beta! Thanx!! Heard any news on the newer sprint radio?

[jr5416]

Just flashed to the new sprint radio will be giving updates on it later thanks guys for this find

[sdwyz74]

well i flashed to the new radio no problem everything went cool (i thought) then i look and the clock was off so i tried to set it and it's off again also the weather widget wont update it just keeps saying N/A ive only been on it since lastnight but if i can get these bugs out i'll flash back to the 1.03.09 VRW radio as it has been total BLISS anyway just thought i would throw that out there and see if anyone else has had this problem or any other problems.

PS also i dont think it matters but i am running mySPRINT TP on the BOOST CDMA SERVICE (wich is SPRINTS prepaid devision) just incase they put some new protocol in there but i doubt
thanks to all

[tlpalmer01]

with all the hype of the new sprint radio i had to flash to that and venum said his phone didnt get as hot either with goku's rom.......definetly worth a shot....

[D/\SH]

for sure im running the same setup as i said earlier too with the radio and the rom and i love the hell out of the waythat this thing performs....... doesnt get as hot, the signal is way better for me than the lastest telus and on top of all that the abtter life with the two is uber awesome :soldier:

[forty01]

I'm making the leap now that I have Goku's ROM installed this morning... next and with so many great reviews how can you not :)

[GokuSS3]

Yeah you can't go wrong with the new sprint radio work great all around better signal i think !!!!

[Bmoresgreatest]

cool. ive been waiting for this

[forty01]

My coverage in the DFW area has been great w/o too many issues... none that I can really think of, so hard for me to give a good review. I will test when I head out of town, but I will relay if battery life has been improved. Hard to tell even then with a good confirmation due to me installing Goku's ROM and it already making that happen :)

[D/\SH]

Yeah you can't go wrong with the new sprint radio work great all around better signal i think !!!!

thats for sure :)

[jfaulkner467]

I am getting error i have tried the sprint rom and the tellus and I keep getting error code 67 your pcs vision username and password may be incorrect I need help

[PsyChoTk]

That radio didn't work for me in east central florida. The EVDO speeds were slower, poorer connections to the towers, and the battery ran out faster.

Where I'm at there are fewer towers, while in orlando, you can get a signal in a lead-lined bunker.

sounds like you need to run a prl update. also you need to double check your epst settings and ensure your info is correct.

you could also be getting this if you are inside and have a weak signal. go outside, soft reset and try again. i got the same error yesterday when i got my refurb programed.

that last part hurts to hear...... i hate refurbs :sad:

yup...............(sigh)............

[NeMeS|S]

Flashed this and it seems to hold up with the phone not really overheating as much as previous radios, but alas the battery drains substatially quicker with the latest NRG rom, one 15 min phone call drops 10%, I think i am gonna have to head back to the telus radio. Don't get me wrong, the reception on this is okay as well but the reception on the both telus radios were much better and batt drain was less. Worth a shot but did not really impress me, btw I live in the Killadelphia area.

HOpe this info helps......Keep flashing!

[only1penny]

it odesnt matter they do the same thing..... the exe is like the stock roms and the ruu is just an unpacked exe file....

The latest Sprint radio has been working great here in the Tri-State area of Az/Nv/Ca, loving it, no dropped calls and the quality sounds great. Thanks

Ive been on that same radio here in wildwood ,nj and id have to say the battery life with this has been amazing thanks for the radio guys ,the signal pretty much the same as the old one .Going to try out the telus radio now see what i cn do with that

[only1penny]

so how do you flash the exe file?

[D/\SH]

so how do you flash the exe file?
look in the flashing guide..... it will be under the stock to stock or the custom to stock.... just plug in and connect to asctivesync or device center and than double click and foll=wot he steps.... you must be unlocked already though.

ahh, and just when i thought i was inching my way towards the exit door of the noob room, i get blasted (possibly something like supes "pimp hand") and told to go sit in the corner!
here i think maybe put the exe in the ruu folder and change something..........no stupid, just plug in your phone and click the exe. i did read the flashing guide 1st, i just over looked it cause i was looking for a big title and it was half a sentence.
