Default Best Tmobile radio?

Ive tried many different roms and many different radios and still havent found one that works great. most of the problems i have is with the keyboard for some reason on certain radios my keyboard will lag and different keys will not work all the time. and the weird thing is that if i change the radio it changes what keys work and dont work. i recently tried the newest rom and radio released on the htc website and that didnt help. another question can i download the rom for the htc tytn 2 from the website and flash it on a att tilt? thanks again for the help

Sometimes you need to change language when flashing certain roms diffrent from stock, if not match youre HK will be remaped to whatever the flashed ROM tells it todo . Example:

I am Norwegian so I have to change Curlang to 414 (414 Hex, 1044 Dec). I do this by searching up Curlang in my register (should be in: HKLM/Hardware/Devicemap/Keybd), then I Soft Reset. DONE! My Keyboard is now supporting ÆØÅ and all the oter keys and so on, just as I am used to on Norwegian Shipped/Stok Roms.

There are floating alot of curlang cabs for the diffrent phones in here, dig in or perhaps someone will post it for you.

its not just the mapping its just the keyboard wont type a letter unless i press it like 3 or 4 times. and im pretty sure its the radio and not the keyboard because if i change the radio different keys are effected. i no it sounds weird but im sure its not the keyboard or the mappings

I would deffently reflash to stock ROM asap! If its not rom/radio related I would suspect you got some fluid under HK? By the way you say diffrent (like in random?) keys ad affected makes me suspect its HW related if its really not as simple as radio. The remap should be the same on same country ROM`s for you, and the mapping is done in the register. If its radio related, you whole device should act strange and dodgy IMO.

Kinda relevant information, you shoulda sticked in there first place my friend Tmobile I have no experience on radio to share. Think you need to dig into radio treads as its probobly then as youreself concluded radio related. Just try combine diffrent roms -> radio until you find a good match then take notes of the given radio. I would also search more for other Tmobile comments on radio issues from the memebers.

Dont know how updated this is but belive you can take it for a spin: [4 December] The Ultimate Radio Thread

i have searched and it seems like noone has shared their tmobile radio experiences. ive been fooling with this phone all night and i may have a conclusion. i used jockeyw's unlock method and i believe my hardspl isnt upgraded to the 3.29 or 3.56 like the new roms require. i have tried to upgrade and still wont change my bootloader info. on my tricolored screen the 2nd line says "SPL-1.0.OliPof" which i am assuming is SPL1.0 not SPL 3.29. this is very frustrating because i cant change it no matter what hardspl i do. i even tried this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354061 and it still didnt help. i think this is all the info i can come up with i hope someone can help

Default Some SPL Wiki reading called for

So if you're using a Windows Mobile 6.0 compatible SPL (version 1.xx) with a WM 6.1 ROM that can give a host of problems, including freezing. I used this SPL Questions part of the wiki to change from the OliPof 1.0 SPL to a HTC 1.93 SPL the other day and using JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe it worked fine so there's something you're not doing right. If you describe what happened after you tapped Kermit, (including any RUU error messages) it may help us diagnose whats going on. I suggest you re-read that part of the wiki as well as this is getting a bit spoon-feeding-ish (which xda-dev is not about).

I have Hard SPL 3.56 and use KAIS_Radio_1.70.18.02 with PDA_Corner Ultimate X Beta II (ROM). My average download speed via tethering is now about 27 KB/s. It used to be only about 20 to 22 KB/s. Also make sure that you install the Tilt keyboard fix cab that is on the WIKI page if you are using a Kaiser ROM on an AT&T Tilt.
