Some info about radio ROMs

[pof]

For those wondering what's de difference between each radio version, I've compiled a table with all radio ROMs available for the Hermes (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms) from the info I could extract from the decoded radios.

Here comes an explanation of each field, some things are just my guess and others are unknown to me:


Radio: Shipped Radio version as shown on splash screen or device information under WM5.
Protocol: If it ends in W means it's WEDGE (WCDMA and GSM/GPRS/EDGE), if it ends in H means HEDGE (HSDPA/WCDMA and GSM/GPRS/EDGE).
KMRX: M6275B-KMRX version (don't ask me what is this!)... seems to be part of the protocol string.
HTC_BOOT: HTC Radio Bootloader version.
QC_BOOT: Qualcomm bootloader version.
DATE1: First date string found (1 time) - this is most probably the radio build date.
DATE2: Second date string found (6 times) - this seems to be the common base between radio's build date.
JNAND: QUALCOMM JNAND Version and build date of JNAND.ELF for MSM6275 SURF and FFA


I have the feeling that HTC_BOOT V1.0108 will be a pain in the ass ;)

If someone can bring more information, it is welcome :)

RADIO VERSION

The Qualcomm MSM6275 (http://www.cdmatech.com/products/msm6275_chipset_solution.jsp) chipset is found on Hermes, Trinity and Breeze devices.

If radio version ends in "1" it means GPS is enabled in this radio, if it ends in "0" it means is disabled. Example:


Radio 1.21.31.10 ==> GPS is disabled
Radio 1.22.01.01 ==> GPS is enabled


To see NMEA data you can use the command "at@startgps" in GSM AT Command interpreter (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_RadioBootLoader#gsmBL). To stop receiving NMEA data use "at@stopgps". It is possible to flash a GPS enabled radio from Trinity on Hermes, but Hermes hardware seems to lack either the antenna or the RF amplifier (or both) and it is not possible to use the MSM6275 as internal GPS on Hermes. See related thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291181) for more info on this.

HTC_BOOT

This is the radio bootloader (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_RadioBootLoader#radioBL) , do not confuse with normal bootloader (SPL).

Until now there are three radio bootloader versions found inside hermes radio (GSM.nb): 1.0106, 1.0107 and 1.0108

The last 4 digits of the radio bootloader version is returned by radio bootloader command "rversion".

These are the known differences between them:

1.0106 -- still has command 'rrbmc' to read back the memory content
1.0107 -- command 'rrbmc' does not work anymore, but it has been replaced by command 'rdpram' with the same syntax.
1.0108 -- this was first seen in Softbank X01HT post december 2nd devices (radio 1.14) and is also included in some trinity radios. The peculiarities of this radio bootloader version are explained here:


If you have a radio with HTC_BOOT 1.0108 on your device, you can't use extracted radio ROMs (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms): This means you will not be able to flash radios in NBF format with MaUpgrade_NoID.exe anymore, you'll allways need to flash them in signed NBH format (ie: full ROM upgrade).

If you have a radio with HTC_BOOT 1.0108 on your device and flash a full ROM upgrade in NBH format, the radio will not be flashed unless your SPL version is 1.09.

If you have a radio with HTC_BOOT 1.0108 on your device and flash a full ROM upgrade in NBH format with SPL-1.09 on your device, your radio will be changed to the radio contained in the NBH file, HOWEVER the radio bootloader will stay the same HTC_BOOT 1.0108.


The same, explained in other words:

If you have a radio with HTC_BOOT 1.0108 (for example softbank x01ht 1.14 radio) and want to flash radio 1.21.31.10 on your device:



Upgrade your SPL to version 1.09, either by flashing a full rom containing SPL 1.09 or by flashing only this SPL with MFG bootloader (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_BootloaderMFG).
Flash a full ROM containing 1.21.31.10 (or your desired) radio version, for example jasjam 1.31 rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291278). This will put radio 1.21.31.10 on your device, but HTC_BOOT will be 1.0108 even if the radio 1.21.31.10 has HTC_BOOT 1.0107.
Flash MFG bootloader again and flash extrom and OS "manually" from MFG.


Results after this:

Radio 1.21 will be back on your device, but HTC_BOOT 0108 will stay instead of being the original HTC_BOOT found on radio 1.21 (HTC_BOOT 0107). This means you will not be able to flash radios in NBF format with MaUpgrade_NoID.exe anymore, you'll allways need to flash them in signed NBH format.

--------------

Recommendation:

Don't flash any HTC_BOOT 0108 radio on your deivce if you plan to test Trinity's GPS enabled radios on Hermes, because you'll loose the ability to flash radios in NBF.

There are 2 trinity GPS enabled radios:

- 1.29 with HTC_BOOT 0108
- 1.22 with HTC_BOOT 0107

If you want to test, flash the 1.22, otherwise when you flash a new full hermes ROM in NBH you will keep the HTC_BOOT 0108 and will never be able to flash a Trinity radio on Hermes again.

[VivaErBetis]

Uau! pof, this is a very interesting info. Did you translate it to the wiki? :)

[pof]

Not yet, I'm still doing research on the radio and will be using this post to add my findings. When I think it's complete then will probably write the wiki page.

[kamiru]

To pof:

Must a radio version 1.14 of X01HT be 1.0108? How can we check it?

So we can only upgrade the radio rom by a full rom only (ex: jasjam 1.31 rom). If we do it, whether it has other effect on our devices? I think we still can flash other full rom after do it, isn't it?

Thank you for your kindly reply first!

[pof]

Must a radio version 1.14 of X01HT be 1.0108? How can we check it?
All softbank X01HT post 2006-12-02 with ROM version 1.33.761.4 have:
- radio 1.14 with HTC_BOOT 1.0108 (radio bootloader)
- SPL-1.09 (normal bootloader)

You can't check it because you need to access the radio bootloader for that, but the command to do this (rtask a) has been removed in SPL-1.09.

If you downgrade the SPL to 1.04, you can see it using radio bootloader command "rversion":


USB>rtask a
Enter Radio Bootloader
rversion
0108


So we can only upgrade the radio rom by a full rom only (ex: jasjam 1.31 rom).
Yes, and after having unlocked your phone with imei-check unlocker latest version (v4b). Otherwise you will not be able to flash other full rom because SPL-1.09 will check your CID and give you the "invalid vender id" error all the time.

If we do it, whether it has other effect on our devices? I think we still can flash other full rom after do it, isn't it?
You loose softbank warranty after doing it, that's the only downside.

[trion]

I gues when the new HTC firmware comes out, it will most likely have a radio with HTC_BOOT 1.0108.

so is it then possible the extract everything from it and flash it without the radio part.

this way we can allways chose witch radio we want to have, including the gps enabled radio. Or else it will be impossible to flash the gps enabled radio in the future, or am I wrong?

[pof]

I guess that too, as new trinity ROMs are coming out with that version.

Yes, using the 1.01 MFG bootloader (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_BootloaderMFG).

You're right.

[scorpio16v]

There is a new Radio-Rom in FTP-Uploads (1.27.0.0).Can anyone confirm, that is has 1.0107 ?

[pof]

It has 0107, it's safe :)

[kamiru]

USB>rtask a
Enter Radio Bootloader
rversion
0108


Dear pof,

After I checked my device, I found it is 0108 version. But I think my device does not be hacked by imei-check unlocker latest version (v4b), since I used it before v4b release.

So whether I can upgrade to a full rom? After I upgrade it, whether I need to purchase the imei-check unlocker?? thank you for your kindly reply again.

[pof]

@kamiru: If your device is SuperCID you can upgrade the radio in NBH format with bootloader 1.09, either by flashing a full rom or the 1.27 shipped radio we have now. If it's not SuperCID you'll need to purchase the imei-check unlocker.

[Superenchi]

I used the HERMES Bootloader 1.01 MFG to check the HTC_boot on my x01ht, and it's 1.08.

So now I need to go back to SPL 1.09 but where's the file? I only have the spl-1.04.nb and spl-1.01.nbs from the .zip.

Mike

[apokryphus]

you have to flash your devicewith a complete rom to get the version 1.09 on it.

sorry

[walshieau]

ok so if i purchase the imei-check unlocker, does that give me SuperCID even though my device is not sim locked?

what does the imei-check actually do?

[funks]

Considering that a full rom update will flash the HTC radio bootloader, can an older full rom update downgrade and replace the HTC radio bootloader to an older version?

or is there some sort of dependency that the radio bootloader can only be flushed up a version.

[hokkeung]

Where to download 1.29 with HTC_BOOT 0108?
Thanks

[pof]

now I need to go back to SPL 1.09 but where's the file?
here (ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Hermes/Cooked_ROMs/SPL-1.09.nb).

No, use SPL-1.01 MFG (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_BootloaderMFG) to flash SPL-1.09 (ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Hermes/Cooked_ROMs/SPL-1.09.nb) only.

Not sure, ask their support team :)

No, once HTC_BOOT 0108 is flashed on your device there is no known way to downgrade it, at the moment it will stick forever.
is there some sort of dependency that the radio bootloader can only be flushed up a version.
0107 can be downgraded to 0106, but 0108 can't.

Dear POF,

Sorry to my poor English first. So,as you say,if HTC-bootloader upgrade to 1.08,I can still flashed other rom and radio with running full rom method?What I can not do is I can't downgrade the Radio Bootloader?Is that what you mean?Thanks for your help!!!

[apokryphus]

here (ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Hermes/Cooked_ROMs/SPL-1.09.nb).


No, use SPL-1.01 MFG (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_BootloaderMFG) to flash SPL-1.09 (ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Hermes/Cooked_ROMs/SPL-1.09.nb) only.


Sorry my fault, didn´t noticed that you´ve extracted it already till now i thought there were only 1.01.nbs and 1.04.nb as extractet bootloader-files.

Hi Pof

Cheers for all the hard work and info provided here. HTC certainly have made life harder in Hermes land than it was for the Universal.

If I am understanding rightly, flashing any radio that contains HTC Boot 0108 via any means of flashing will mean that individual ROM flashing from that point onwards is impossible. Additionally, in order to flash a complete ROM Shipped ROM update and have the radio from that ROM also flashed, the device must be SPL1.09. If it is not then the rom will not be flashed (but the OS and Ext Rom will get flashed).

To flash the OS and Ext rom file, from a complete shipped rom that contains a radio with HTCBOOT0108, Bootloader 1.01 MFG coupled with the manual method described elsewhere must be used. To flash any radio ROM with HTCBoot0107 or lower bootloader 1.04 may be restored and maUpgrade_Noid used to do the flashing.

Any Radio Roms that contains HTCBOOT0108 should be avoided, currently, that means all radios above 1.27.00.00 with none of the radios included in the AKU3.3 updates being flashable without causing HTCBoot to be changed to V0108.

I guess that all future radio roms will be HTCBOOT0108?? Hopefully you clever people on here will come up with a work-around!

For me, I shall stick the 'ship' version of the current english 'test' AKU3.3 rom on my unit once it is released, but will do this using the 1.01MFG bootloader. Then I'll put SPL1.04 back on my device and flash radio 1.27.00.0 (HTCBOOT0107) - or later if any later radio roms have HTCBOOT0107 on them).

This gives me AKU3.3 with the latest NON 0108 radio rom being that my device stays with HTCBOOT0107 and individual rom updates continue to be possible.

Regards

Nigel

First of all I just wanted to say thank you for creating such forum. For someone like me who doesn't have any idea about the technology behind a pocket pc or a smartphone, this site really open my eyes. I can now somewhat understand some of the techie terms used in this site. Thank you all.

My question goes to all. Does the radio ROM in the UK (Tmobile) differs from the radio ROM in the USA (Tmobile)? This might be a stupid question. I know that Tmobile in USA does not offer Hermes, however if someone in the UK where to travel to USA and they have a Hermes, UK edition, would that person be able to use his phone in the USA without any problem provided that the phone is SIM unlock?

I have a Hermes by Cingular / AT&T (USA) and would like to use it with Tmobile (USA), what radio ROM should I use? Also what is the most stable cooked up ROMs available for Hermes that would work with Tmobile network (USA):confused:

Not sure of your Location or Carrier? Radio 1.40 has mostly good reviews. Find someone on the forum in your city and see what they are using, You can always try 1.40, and then one of the others (the Radio Roms are up to 1.48).

I too am having these problems, on Black Satin radio 1.48.

It must be a windows thing. I was hoping getting the Hermes would fix it for me.

I had the same problem with my SP5 wm5 smart phone.
It occurs for me when I am in my office were I don't recieve signal. It stays at the ! status untill reset when leaving.

Is there some radio time out setting or something?

[Alex_electro]

I've read inanother thread that the oem for this device is not known yet, but is'it possible someday to have a radio-Rom that finish with a 1 (gps enabled) working with this device? if yes it's may give a solution for a lot of person's who are ready to pay for this app. that let use gps without other cost.
So i'll read this thread until i well understand the aware.
thank guy's for your support.

[Alex_electro]

I finally found the carrier that sold the device gps capable out-of-the-box.
Verizon sell this device as XV6800 (may be a little different than tita100)
HTC Verizon XV6800 Features

So if i'm on a wrong way tell me, but i think wr're getting closer to the solution, in finding a way to adapt a radio ROM (gps enabled) for titan device(from all carriers).
Keep you're well fair that help devloppement of many kind.

A question for Radio Guru's; what is the newer radio: 1.54.00.10 or 1.54.07.00?

Yes, I know that the version number indicates that 1.54.07.00 is newest but, the last two digits of IMEI-17 indicates the software revision number and, for radio 1.54.00.10 these numbers are 06, but for radio 1.54.07.00 these numbers are 05...

Hello, I am new to this forum. I have been reading a lot of topics on flashing radio on the tytn.
Here is my issue so far. I bricked my Tytyn when my computer crashed while upgrading to wm6.1 directly from HTC site.
I was able to make it alive(Thanks to you guys in the forum) using MTTY.exe
But then I get the dreaded No GSM error.
I researched and found out that it is becasue of Radio ROM gone bust.
I flashed to IPL-1.04 and SPL - 2.10 Olipro with Hard-SPL and have tried most of the radio roms availble in the forum. But it has failed to update my radio ROM :confused:
Now I have a device with NO GSM. As good a s PDA

Trying looking through this http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick and if you still can't fix your brick then it's time to get a new phone or send it off for repair as this is all the information there currently is on unbricking your phone. Flashing a RADIO or ROM with a RADIO in is always the most dangerous way to screw up your phone. Which is why I always tell people to use a MicroSD card as this is 1000 times safer than using a USB cable.

I have upgraded my hermes 100 Imate jasjam radio, to version 1.54.30.10 but I don't know how to check it, and retrieve the version of my radio? Could you help me? I have read many posts but I couldn't do it (My Computer operating system is Vista if it helps)

[ultramag69]

On Jasjam, go to settings>system>device information. It tells you what radio rom you have. The protocol version tells if its HSDPA enabled. For example

Radio Version: 1.54.30.10
Protocol Version 32.87.7020.20H

means I've HSDPA enabled. If the Protocol Version was 32.87.7020.20W the HSDPA wouldn't be active.


Cheers...:D

BTW - before upgrading any more radio versions or roms make sure to Hard SPL your Hermes. Its a safeguard against permanent bricks... Read this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722

Are you saying that if I currently have the 1.47.30.00 radio and want to upgrade to the latest say, 1.56.70.11, it will not work because the radio loader is .0108? :confused:
Please correct me if I am misunderstanding.
Thanks

Upgrade to whatever hermes radio you wish. ;)

Just remeber that the latest isn't always the best and can cause signal problems and or battery drainage problems... Radio roms are carrier specific and what works best for you depends on what your carrier supports best...

Guys I've got Schap's 4.31 Rom loaded. My Radio version is 1.48.00.10, according to that the GPS is disabled.
In your opinion, is GPS on the Hermes working effectively to navigate by it?
In short, is it worth upgrading or would you recommend an external GPS ?

cheers!

Guys i need help...I've been reading these forums for almost a week...
I recently got HTC Tytn Swisscom version (XPA v1605). I guess its
unlocked because it works fine with other carrier than Swisscom
(I am from Serbia).I checked radio version and its 1.32.00.00 and rom
version as shown in device information is 2.08.170.1,protocol version:
32.65.7020.09H. Now i have some questions...If this radio version has
HTC_BOOT v0108 does it mean i can't flash HardSPL?And also i have IPL
version 1.01 and SPL 1.09 (i see that almost all here has IPL v1.04 or
something else).Other question is if anyone here is from Serbia (and using
Telekom as carrier) which radio rom do you recommend?I would like to try
some other of these praised radio roms (1.47, 1.48 or other) because my
battery drains in 2 days or a little more (is it normal?) and sometimes i get
status indicator connection is not active. What should i do and how to flash
rom, and is it possible that with HTC_BOOT 0108 flashing is more dangerous?
Thanks for your help in advance! (and sorry if i made any mistake and you couldn't
understand some of the things i wrote)

hi guys i have a problem with my htc wing, when i try do a call the signal disappear. i dont know what happen. maybe the radio rom is older please help. someone have the radio radio and how can i do to upgrade? thanks

[ukracer]

@kamiru: If your device is SuperCID you can upgrade the radio in NBH format with bootloader 1.09, either by flashing a full rom or the 1.27 shipped radio we have now. If it's not SuperCID you'll need to purchase the imei-check unlocker.

I realise its now 2010 but I still need the info if possible.

Its all very confusing and the more I read the more confused I become.

I have a M700 with useless signal in 3G mode. If I update the radio could this improve things??

Thanks in advance
