Hi there,
after upgrading to WM6 (twice) i feel that the radio version (1.45.00.00) is less reliable than the one i had with WM5 (1.38.001),
about 10% of the calls i get, the phone doesn't ring at all and about 30% of the calls the phone only rings once and then stops,
overall reception in 3G is worse than it used to be.
is there a way to cook WM6 with the WM5 radio?
thanks

I THINK if you flash your device with Mobile 2005 you'll ger your radio ROM back, not sure.. Just try and post the results..

yes indeed i will,
but then i will get WM5 back again, right?
what i really wanted was WM6 with WM5's radio.

well i think that both radio versions are almost the same, so i am asking again if it is possible to change only the radio version or to combine an old radio version with WM6 before flashing the whole rom,
thanks for your reply

I have only seen the 1.47.51 radio posted seperately. It seems to work pretty well for me.
Later...................

P.S. It does require a hard reset to install it tho.........Later

When I upgraded to WM6 the radio wasn't working any more: I was unable to receive incoming calls, the device switch directly to messaging, and the radio was rebooting after each call.

For me, in France, if the ROM radio of the Athena is higher than 1.38 the phone app is turning mad... So I had to go back to WM5 WWE then, flashing to the WM6 rom posted on the forum.

I've tried few days ago with the new rom from DOPOD, everything is working quite well, exept... the phone app which do no whant to receive calls any more.

I've a german AMEO with the HARD SPL but it does the same thing with a "french" HTC X7500.

Is it a provider incompatibility?

That's why i'm intersted of someone has the 1.38 radio ONLY

thanks!

@Olipro

Could you make an rom image with only radiorom 1.38 I have found that in the Netherlands radio 1.38 has a far better UMTS reception and it also has a far better GPS reception. This radio has no flaws and was developed for europe. I think 1.47 was optimized for the states and should be used over there. 1.45 was made for asia. So please make a 1.38 radiorom only.
