Here lately, I've been trying to upgrade the custom rom on my HTC Titan thats been unlocked for use with T-Mobile. However, when I decided to upgrade, I realized all of the newer roms are of course using the newest radio (v17) which absolutely refuses to see my T-mobile sim card. My girlfriend has AT&T and the second I throw her sim card into the phone (with the version 17 radio) it accepts the network and everything works as usual so I know its got to be the sim card. All of the custom wp7.8 roms with the version 16 radio have broken links and are out dated so I'm hoping to find a fix for this. Or at least find someone else who knows of the issue. Hopefully someone on here can find some kind of a solution.

Titan stuck at v16 radio

However, I've also found that in my research that the v17 radio is a euro radio and doesn't work as well for people in the US on AT&T. So, I'd be cautious about upgrading.
Hopefully this helps!
That is a problem that a lot of AT&T Titans have. After having the issue that I do and researching it. I came across this page and found a solution for that and here it is.

Radio v 17 is not "Euro"
It's just $hitty radio But not for all users. In some areas and regions it works w/o issues. For me - both radios are ok but v 16 definitely works better - faster signal detection and more stable data transfer. So after almost 10 months of using v17 I rolled back to v16.P.S. Just for the record - my Titan also gets stuck on radio replacement - so every time I decide to change radio - I have to use goldcard....

haha a ****ty radio that is! Is there any way you or anybody can send me a copy of a wp7.8 v16 radio rom? HTC fanboys is down and I cant find ANY downloads. I'm stuck in cellphone limbo hahaha!Radio v 17 is not "Euro"

The point is that radio version has no connection to WP7.0, 7.5 or 7.8. Radio is mutually dependent only on OEM version. So - if you wanna use 7.8 rom with radio 16 - you should find (or cook) rom with OEM v 2.05. If you are using radio v 17 - you should use OEM v 4.06 rom.
Anyway, links to both radio:

Eternity_Radio_Signed_17.5006.08.27_17.08.50.06

I understand all of this, my delima is that since I'm using T-mobile on an unlocked titan, the v17 radio wont see the tmobile sim card. And to top it off, all of the OEM 2.05 roms I've found have missing links or are no longer available. I was hoping that someone on here knew of a way to work around that issue, or possibly had a copy of an older 7.8 rom that they would be willing to toss my way. I'd love to be able to cook one but I'm not quite sure how.
What is your native tongue? Maybe I can provide single-lang rom for radio 16 for you...

I speak le english lol. You would be a life saver and I'd greatly appreciate it!
You might want to reenter the subsidy (carrier) unlock code; but let be humble when I say I am not an expert at any of this other than the hours I spent reading these threads and downloading much of what is here to a partition on my HDD. I can't speak to a bad 17 radio; mine works as well as the 16 did and based on what I've read from the gurus here there are custom (HSPL) ROMs using radio 16. I didn't know that until tonight. I don't know what others' experiences are in regards to the stock Microsoft released WP7.8 but it available from a number of sources.

I have tried that. Unfortunately to no avail. The second I turn the phone on it says no signal. then just for a split second, I get 4g and then it says no sim or sim error.
Funny... If you still need radio 16 latest build 0409 rom - let me know in PM.... Otherwise - I won't cook it.

Thanks AndrewSh
Thanks for this Information! I have searched a long time for it, cause I'm cooking two versions of HTC Titan ROM 7.8 - one with 17 and one with 16 Radio ROM. I believed that the Radio is depend on files in XIP or / and SLDR but not OEM.
