Can anyone help me? I'd like to downgrade the Radio version on my P3300. Due to a bluetooth problem in WM6 see thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353071, my carkit won't recognise my connection on the Artemis.
Maybe, by downgrading the Radio version to a WM5 version, I'd might solve the problem?!
Is there someone out there who can provide me a 'old' version?
Fred
Older radio-versions can be found here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_RadioUpgrades (listed from oldest to newest). Radio 02.98.90 works fine for me, I had some issues with 03.07.90 on battery use. You can just try it out, doesnt need a hard reset.
what are the radio upgrades good for anyways? i still dont know it.

Like in a Desktop PC you can run different Versions of OSs (Windows XP\Vista, Linux, Mac) and still change Firmware Versions of Hardware Components (Disk Drive, WLAN Chip, Soundcard) indipendently.
The Radio ROM Only affects the Radio Unit of a device, maybe affecting the battery duration time or increasing Call Quality or whatever has to do with the radio part of a phone. However it is independend from the OS.
if i try one of those radio upgrades, would it affect (for example) the SDHC patch i installed on my phone (P3300 wm6)?
any info page/link on what exactly each release of radio upgrades improves, and a how-to to install it?

Hi there,
Anyone tried just upgrading the radio stack?
My xda already has the latest UK rom version 3.14.13 (it was bought in March) and its Radio version is 4.08, so hence my question...
Can anyone offer any advice? - as it appears some people have had problems just upgrading the radio stack.
Common sense would dictate that this should work, but hey, we're talking Microsoft products! :lol:
just done it ok... the process goes smoothly, and doesnt seem to need a "cold" reset.
Hi derekcfoley
I've done it from 4.08 to 4.14 to 4.16. No problem.
I do not see much diffrence though.
I used always the rsu from the web.
:roll:
hi all!
i just upgraded to ppc2000 /version 4.00.01 eng on my austrian t-mobile mda.
that does work. but as i tried the earlier version of it (imho 3.xx) before i think that connecting to gprs was WAYS faster. so i thought of up/downgrading my radio stack which is 3.16 at the moment.
some ppl are saying they use version 4 or even 6... BUT: can i use them as well? what are the limitations ???
here we use gsm 900/1800 so i guess any us-att stack that is meant for 1900 won't work, right?
so: what version to use, and what do you suggest?
and one more Q: upgrading OS does NOT upgrade the radio stack, right?
pls anybody confirm.
thanx!
regards ize|man
and one more Q: upgrading OS does NOT upgrade the radio stack, right?
Yes, that is right!

As long as you are using a cooked ROM, or .nbf file on SD card ... be careful as some opertors' upgrade contains both RSU and ROM update in one exe file!

Tnx .... at last I have radio update ... wonder how it compares with older one .... signal quality perhaps.
when i want to update the radio rom my htp p3300 dutch version starts up again and the connection is lost. Then i get the message on the pc screen that the update is failed because of an connection problem (error 260). When my device is back online the collored screen (red green blue) is shown with a usb connection. The only thing i can do now is a soft reset
what goes wrong?
please help me to update!
tnx PvdH
Radio 02.93.90
Does anyone of you know whether the problems of not being reachable on the T-Mobile NL network is solved by performing this Radio upgrade?
Thanks for this Pof, I was disappointed that I wouldn't be getting the radio update with the WM6 update you released recently.... Glad to see there's work happening on the Artemis specifically at last!
Apologies if I sound noobish....
What advantages does this radio stack version have over the previous?
Better reception?
Battery efficiency?
UTMS?
other GSM bands ?
CDMA?
Please advise
If you update the radio, will you loose all the things/settings stored on your device?

Well I just gave it a try, and everything that's stored on the device was still there.
thanks, pof ! You're great !
I'm really curious if this will fix the "echo effect" problem. (Somebody calls me, I hear him perfectly but he only heares his own voice, echoed). This happens only from time to time, most of the calls are ok.
thanks again,
stefan
tnx pof,
finaly updated my p3300 with this radio update.
First thoughts about the new radio (2.93.90):
1) Battery seems to last longer
2) My problem with "echoed phone calls" seems to be fixed.
I will keep an eye on these and I will update you, guys.
Thanks for your work, pof.

Probably better reception and battery efficiency.
No chance of UTMS or CDMA, this is a hardware, not firmware, limitation.
The P3300 is a quad band device, are there any additional bands in conventional GSM? Keep in mind UTMS is a hardware thing so the bands for 3G are not pertinent.
Yes I have some problem of battery with this ROM
My phone run less than one day.
Sorry for my bad english.

Is that the reason or ??
Hello,
I have the bepe rom 0.58 for my french Polaris.
My version of radio is: 1.58.21.23
My version of protocol is : 25.65.30.04H
Where can i get the new versions of radio and/or protocol? And how to install it, keeping the bepe rom?
Thanks in advance
http://rapidshare.com/files/99464281/Polaris_ONLY_Radio_1_58_25_14_Sign_25_69_30_05.rar
Make a backup before flash, or search xda for a utility that prevent you from
a hard reset ....
Thank you very much !
But will it erase and replace my actual rom (bepe WM6.1 WWE_1.28.405.1), or simply update radio version and protocol version?
Because I want to keep my actual rom that i like very much and simply update radio and protocol versions.
Thanks in advance !
PS: And finally, how can i install swtos file? By executing what file in the rar archive? ROM.exe?
Sorry, I am a beginner with Windows Mobile and don't want to make errors ^^
Only update radio version and protocol version!

I would not recommend you to update your Radio to a test version. The test Radio is flawed and you will have problems with Bluetooth. It doesnt offer any (significant?) advantages at all, I would keep your current Radio which is stable and works.

Suddenly my FM Radio isn't able to receive any station and the bluetooth refuses to start. I'm going back to the 21.23 radio to see if I can solve it. I tried 2 different cooked ROM (bepe's 0.58 and swtos' BlackWidow latest ROM) and it reamains the same...
Wah!!! I thought that I had the necessary files to reflash 1.58.21.23, but they were from another model! (Kaiser). Now I'm not able to find where this version is available to download. Everybody seems to have the 25.14.
Does anybody know where to download the original radio ROM version?? Thanks a lot!

I'll see in a while whether it solves my BT and FM Radio issue or not. It appears that this is a recurrent problem since I have seen some people having it. I don't know if it is because of the OS ROM or because of the Radio ROM.
It didn't work. It appears that my BT and FM Radio died. HELP! I don't know the reason and what it even more strange it that it suddenly stopped working without making any change.

I think you have a defective device.
GSM Radio has nothing to do with FM Radio .... I have change many times
my GSM radio without any problem.
You have to return your TC for service ....

This is exactly what other users reported, after flashing 1.58.25.14. Some users (including) myself got it back working after flashing the original Radio, some - obviously like you - never got their Bluetooth running again. They reported "Hardware error" when trying to switch it on.
I guess it's time to send your Polaris in for repairs...
I have installed this radio and now under command manager I can't activate wi-fi since the button is now greyish. Actually the wi-fi works if activated from setting but it's still annoying. Is there a way to fix it or is just a radio issue?
Rom: Kostas244_ROM3g_23016_FINAL_B1
First say hello for your first post and give us more detail about your configuration.
SPL ? ROM ? old radio ? version ?
Oh, sorry about that. I registered some month ago so I though I had alredy made some post here...Let's start all over again
Hi everyone this is my first post here and I need some help.
I just upgraded my Polaris from 3LIT3 VI (Windows 6.1) to Kostas244_ROM3g_23016_FINAL_B1 (Windows 6.5). Everything was working fine until this morning when I upgraded my radio from 1.65.30.09, that was included in my old ROM, to 1.59.46.12.
The problem is that I can't activate wi-fi from the command manager anymore because its button is now disable but if I use the connection settings to activate it everything works.
Any idea to fix this issue?
Known problem, which might sometimes occur. Try to Hardreset
once or twice and most likely the Wifi button will be available
again as sudden as it greyed out. Once it's working it will
stay working.
Olioaglio
Thank you!
After one hard reset I got back the wi-fi button. Anyway I think a sticky thread about radios with their problem and feature would be great .
What is the diffence between these two radios 1.59.42.15 (my current) and 1.59.46.12? I read that 1.59.46.12 was newer but is it recommended to upgrade? Are there any benefits to signal strength or the like?

You can upgrade and see for yourself what radio version is best for you and your location....From 1.59.46.12 you can downgrade easily to your previous radio if it's not good for you.
