Re: [RADIO COLLECTION] - - [UPDATE 01-15-10] Rhodium_W Radio ROMS [Mirrors Included]
 

I am new to this ROM flashing but I recently Flashed my Sprint TP2 to Mighty Rom and my data hasnt worked since....I called Rogers Wireless they said it takes 24hrs to reset but its been 3 days now.

Tech support said go select 2G only and set it back to Auto. There is no option like that.

Any Ideas?

Device is another word for phone. So if he got the radio off of my Sprint TP2 and a radio off of another Sprint TP2 phone would those be different devices? Would I need to security unlock for one and not the other? Or does it mean that if the radio was taken from a Rhodium TP2, I won't need security unlock because that's the phone I have. But, if it was taken from say an HTC HD I would?

I have a Sprint SIM card. Does the SIM card affect my data connection?

I can make calls but they drop immediately.
I am sending and receiving texts fine.
I am not getting exchange emails, but I am getting hotmail.
I am not getting a data connection.
I have no bars.

all the radios in the first post came from the cdma tp2, so you can flash them to your phone, except for the 1.40 came from a test rom, so if you wanted to flash that one, you would have to be security unlocked.
the sprint sim card is not doing anything, unless you go to a different country and activate international service on your account. then the sprint sim card will allow you to use gsm service (if available) in whatever non-US country you're in.

the 1.40 Radio came from the Sprint RhodiumW 6.5 Test rom :) Its not signed, thats why to flash it you have to be security unlocked.

thanks for that Mr. X...wasn't sure where that one came from.

Thanks Mr.X.

I always have questions about this stuff because it is facinating to me.

For example:

When I woke up this morning, my phone no longer plays any sound when I make or receive a call. It plays system sounds though. Does this have to do with the radio I flashed yesterday? I did install some extra cabs to my MightyROM WAR ROM. I am trying to hard resest to see if that helps.

If not, can I just flash another radio on this thread? Would it be better to flash to stock first?

Sorry anyone thinks these are stupid questions. I learn more from asking questions. I did read the entire thread and many, many others over the last three days of having my phone and finding out all of this was even possible. It is just hard for me sometimes to remember what I read on post #6 by the time I get to post #56.

**EDIT**
The hard reset fixed it. It must have been one of the cabs that increase the speaker capacity. I would still like to know whether flashing to the stock radio first would help? I don't know how it could, but I think I read that for some issues it is better to flash to the stock ROM before flashing a new one. ?? I don't know why I put my opinion in here... this is why I ask a lot of questions. Sometimes I assume that something couldn't possibly hurt when I am only three days old as a phone customizer. I will eventually start cooking though. So, please bear with my stupid newbie questions. I promise that my questions will get better as time goes on. (and hopefully shorter and more direct...sorry)

the radio affects how the phone communicates with the cell phone towers. has no affect on the phone sounds.
No, you don't need to flash back to the stock radio. It's quick and painless. Just flash to a different radio. No other steps needed.

OK I am going to try VZW_2.23WV_S.

VZW_1.88.07WV didn't help. May have made it worse. I am dropping calls before it finishes ringing.

I am in the Pacific Northwest if this info helps anyone.
