Do i have to installl both radios for my thunderbolt?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] loonatik78:
It says right at the heading for each group. How do you miss that? What's more, this is probably the most complete and best laid out radio listing you're going to find anywhere, compliments to the OP for his work and punctuality. If the version numbers are too much to understand, I don't think it's the OP's duty to explain what each version is.

To the poster requesting "common names" such as MR2, MR2.5... That's getting a little difficult since there's actually 2 complete MR2 radios out there. So to say "the MR2 radio" begs the question of which one? The MR2 leak, or the MR2 OTA? It's probably just better to refer to them by the RUU that they came in.

that's fine then. put (MR2 leak) and (MR2 OTA) out next to them. its better to have that than nothing at all to go on.

Now why would someone call it mr3.5 when there hasn't been a maintenance release 3 yet? I'm sure that's why they're not labeled that way. If labeling what ruu they came from isn't clear enough, I don't know what would be...lol!!!!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] a1exus:
after I upgrade my radio I dont think I ever saw it jumping on 4G LTE, I see it's on 3G now... any ideas?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] a1exus:
is there anything I can do to troubleshoot this somehow? I really dont get 4GLTE anymore and that worries me
[Thunderbolt Android Development] fajardoju90:
It's always a good idea to keep a copy of a radio that works for you in a folder where you know you won't lose it before flashing a new one.that way if you flash and it doesn't work for you, and you find yourself with no WiFi or any data to redownload one that works.(like I have when waiting for the girlfriend to shop lol.)then you'll already have something that works.just a matter of moving it to the root of your SD with any app like root explorer.

<To answer your question,just flash back to a previous working radio.>
[Thunderbolt Android Development] a1exus:
my previous is stock radio that came with the phone and it doesn't work w/ gb, but i actually i figured it out why it was on 3g, in radio info it said cdma only (doh) so when i switched it over to auto w/ cdma, lte i got 4g right away ;p (im so stupid!)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] TreyDaPrince:
Do I have to download the LTE radio only to use both or do I have to download both and flash them separately.

Sent from my Xoom or Thunderbolt, pick one
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jbh00jh:
You are better off using the radios that come together. How you flash them depends how they are packaged. If both radios are packaged together ( one download ) you flash the package and it installs both radios. If you download two seperate radios, you have to install them one at a time. You can read the install instructions in the radio thread.

Both of mine were packed together and it was an easy flash.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] dfurr88:
Just to be clear before I do this.. I root my phone and then flash synergy rom, do I have to flash a radio, or will the stock one work?

Thanks for the info.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] RunNgun42:
You will probably have to flash at least one radio. I think MR2 2.5 or 3.5 are recommended. I believe I am on 2.5 and dont have any problems. Although I am looking for 3.5 since I want to see if it will resolve other issues which may or may not be related to my radio.

Here's a link to all the current radios - http://devious-intentions.info/modules.php?name=Downloads&cid=22

Posted this at rootz too, but not everyone reads that so hopefully you guys might be able to help. :)

Alright. So I'm in one of the cities that just got 4G last week. At first there was almost nowhere that my phone would connect to it. Now it's connecting in more places, but I don't think it's actually doing anything. 3G works just fine. When it's connected to 4G, the arrows by the icon aren't doing anything like they do with 3G so I assume it's not sending or receiving any data. I'm on baseband 1.48.00.726w_2, 0.01.78.0802w_3 if that helps at all...

So 802 Radio took about 10 seconds to get roughly 5-7 Fix/Sats under GPS Status/Toolbox

906 took 5 seconds to get 5 sat right off the bat, and bouncing between 5-10 Sats. So GPS does work

Done speed tests vs 802 and 902. Not much of a difference imo. The same ole speeds I'm getting with 4G

Within 5 minute period, these were my results

Yup, it doesn't matter one bit. You don't even have to flash them both for that matter. You could choose to only flash the CDMA radio and not the LTE, or vice versa. It's totally up to you.

Is there any real advantage to using the radio from the 2.11.605.3 RUU (last one in the list) over the MR2 radio?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jerrycycle:
Really boils down to user preference. If the radio is satisfactory for you then continue to use it until there is a reason to upgrade.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] Xpiatio:
So just a quick question since this will be my first time flashing a radio. I see there is a LTE version and a CDMA version. Do I flash one version at a time? Does it matter in what order?

You can only flash one version at a time and it does not matter what order you do it in.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] Joeviocoe:
If you want, you can flash them together at the same time by taking the mdm9k.img file from the LTE zip and placing it in the CDMA zip. Your bootloader will detect both radio files when it asks you if you want to update them.

For example...

Same here, my Co-workers TB that I modded lost 4G on Sept 28, right after her phone was reconnected cause of an error in Billing. Had her on Synergy with MR2 radio, So I updated the radios, then updated the ROM. Then I put her in Bamf forever ROM, and still no 4G.

My guess was that something happened on the Verizon side, which is why I'm asking around.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] Joeviocoe:
I think that the MR2 was the only ones that were officially called maintenance releases.

Then, when the next radio was leaked, the devs and forum people naturally just called it 2.5...

And now people are in the habit of thinking that those are version numbers that will continue to increment.

Call it by the RUU number or better yet, by both baseband numbers for CDMA and LTE (since many people have been mixing and matching radios from different RUUs)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] loveubuntu:
so can someone explain to me which one of these is MR1, MR2, MR2.5? Are these all released/leaked by Verizon/HTC? I really am confused where all these come from. I'm running that last one but do really want to understand this process. TIA
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Joeviocoe:
The latest.

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1048128

The latest as of this week.

2.11.605.3 is the RUU number which is a combination of 2 radios (CDMA & LTE)

CDMA: 1.48.00.0906

and

LTE: 0.01.78.0906

... are the baseband numbers for each radio

The baseband numbers are sometimes given instead of RUU numbers since each radio (both CDMA and LTE) can be mixed and matched rather than specific combinations like the released RUUs. So if you wanted, you could keep the latest LTE radio but go back to an earlier CDMA radio.

For LoveUbuntu,

A lot of people are wanting to call them MR2, MR2.5, MR 2.75, MR 3, MR 3.99... etc.

Please don't!

Those really don't mean anything outside of HTC/Verizon development. And only confuse people. And I think only MR2 (and Maybe MR2.5) were the only ones that were truly called that.... since they were leaked during that critical testing phase. The others radio sets were not ever called MR officially.

The baseband numbers are the only accurate way to know exactly which radio(s) you have. Even the RUU number can be confusing for devices with multiple radios (like the Thunderbolt) since we can mix and match if we want.

Although some radios (with obviously higher baseband version numbers) are newer... that does NOT mean they are upgrades or updates for your device! Radios are VERY finnicky. Try them out at your own risk!

If you have a radio pair that works great for you.. DO NOT flash another radio. There will likely be no improvement, only additional bugs.

If you have poor signal, or have issues with wifi, bluetooth, random reboots, power drain, GPS problems, etc... then maybe a different radio is for you (if you've exhausted other possibilities.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] redrumurder:
I figured it out...my gps wouldn't work either on my thunderbolt once i downloaded cm7 from rom manager. you have to perform the following steps...

1: do a rom backup in rom manager or clockwork recovery

2: flash back to your last saved OEM factory rom, for me i used the stock gingerbread rom that was just released OTA by verizon.

3: on your home screen if you do not already have this, hold down and enable the power widget and place it there. (skip this step if you already have the widget)

4: verify GPS is turned on. if you have GPS/DATA off and you flash to a new rom. it will render them disabled even if cm7 shows your gps is on. it's really off because it was left "off" in the verizon gingerbread rom.

5: once this is enabled. you may do a backup if you chose. restore your cm7 backup you had made. your gps/data issue should be fixed. test this by turning on maps or navigation and you will see the dot come on and off.

hope this helps.

Meow, if I remember correctly the last radio I flashed was the MR2.5 when I went to Liquid, or tried Theory etc months ago. (I'm not a crack flasher, been running LGS for months now)

According to the first post, this is a Froyo radio.

I have 4G. I get 3G. Although at home I'm fringe-ish 4G, and it switches in and out or sometimes just dumps my mobile data connection all together. Its gotten worse in the last month or two. I used to get 4G almost always, and now I don't. (Storms make it go 3G, go figure... Considering its a thunderbolt)

My 3G is garbage. Its near useless even in places where I had no problems whatsoever with my DInc. Thinking I should flash a radio but what?

And how in the hell am I on a Froyo radio on a GB rom!? When I had the old Froyo radio and flashed Gingeritis nothing worked and vice versa. How does this work?

Doesn't make sense to me!

I don't have any GPS or wifi issues. But at home I almost have to use wifi now. 4G and 3G are so spotty. It never used to be. At work its golden. Always 4G, pretty solid speeds. Any thoughts? I'm going to start with the latest radios and go from there.

What really sucks? When I first got the phone I could get 15-17Mbs at work. I haven't seen half of that in months... I guess maybe there was less load on the network then perhaps.
