[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Skyboxer1968:
Alright this isn't precisely on topic but this seems to be the place to ask without starting another thread. I see custom roms and kernels, but not radios. All the radios are pulled out of software packages it seems. Is this something that isn't done, or something that hasn't been gone into yet to the point of releasing?

Can someone tell me what gingerbread radio to flash if im using china ota sense 3

Rom
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
There is only one gingerbread radio..?

many froyo ones, but only one gb so far.

EDIT: just saw there is a second gingerbread radio I never saw... I suggest flashing the most up to date one and the one that comes in the most recent OTA updates

1.09.01.0622
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kinz1980:
I downloaded the zip from the internet on my phone. Then I went into my downloads and choose the zip. Then I got a prompt from rom manger, so I choose it. I wiped dalvik and cache. Then the phone booted in to recovery and did it thing. It stuck on the red eye for about 2 min. I have not noticed any big difference so far. I am not sure if there is more I need to do our if this was right but I thought I would share this. Ginger sense debloated
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gu1dry:
These zips can not be flashed via any recovery...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rfarrah:
Yeah, radios are flashed in hboot. See post #101.

Are you not reading the thread?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gu1dry:
Um, I'm the OP. I was responding to the quoted post, that you can't flash them thru a recovery image...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rfarrah:
Sorry, I was talking to the other guy and agreeing with what you said.

(Sorry for any confusion, guess I quoted the wrong post!)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ddgarcia05:
Anyway to flash this without a computer add? I'm not home but I guess I should play it safe wait until I get home to flash. I'm getting one bar at work. (rural county)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rfarrah:
Not sure what you mean. If you have downloaded the radio file, then simply load it into hboot and rock and roll.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] chewbz:
can you flash the IMG file via fastboot like "fastboot flash radio radio.img" ?

Thats how i do it with my nexus s but are HTCs different?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rfarrah:
Love to help, but I'm unfamiliar with that process.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tifford:
as far as I know: yes, you can. but the files in the OP are .zip, not .img so don't just change the name to .img and be on your way. I'm not sure if the .zip file has the correct .img file inside or not.

but YES you can do it the "flash radio" way, but NO you cant with the files in the OP
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] billquinn1:
The .img file is whats in the zip so you can fastboot flash. Personally I would just let the bootloader install it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] chewbz:
Yeah I was reading the instructions on the first post and it said to adb push the zip files, I tought you could just place them into the sd card and go into bootloader mode and it will install it.... Confused. But I usually use adb and fastboot more often, and just get the img files from the zips and manually flash them. Iono htcs are so weird lol
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] billquinn1:
You are correct, it makes no difference how you get the file on the card. Just get it there without changing the name and it will install.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ljx2k:
I believe the post uses adb to push the files because there is a possibility of visiting the files if you transfer it with the device in usb flash drive mode, also because you can also check md5 sums while using adb after the transfer. but I'm sure just trying the files on the sdcard works

Question, i flashed a rom yesterday and now i magically dont get signal inside my work building, where as right before i flashed, i had full 3g.

I updated to the newest GB radio, but was hesitant when i did a while back, i am curious if i change to the other GB radio listed, if anyone thinks that will make a difference. I get reception outside in the City, but as soon as i walk indoors it goes away.

never had this problem, i dont think its the rom, but i cant think of anything else.

just wanted to get everyones opinion before i started messing with the radio again. I am fully confident with rom's and kernels, but i dont mess with the radio.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gkersting:
Isn't it true that if you received the OTA GB 2.3.3, you will have the 1.09.01.0622 GB radio as part of the update? I rooted using Revolutioary and loaded MikROM Incredible Sensation RLS 1.3 & I didn't flash a separate radio.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] validoption:
Should be. You could always check your baseband in Settings > About phone and see if you have the new radio.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Clutch McWinner:
I'm curious, has anyone gone back to any of the froyo radios?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rfarrah:
I think 622 is the latest. Not very impressed with it though. Tried 225 (?) on a gb rom. Lots of static according to people I was talking to.

Updated OP with the 1.01.50.0817 radio from the 3.06.1401.0 RUU.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] oscillot:
Am I reading that version right? Is this radio a version between the first two known GB radios? Like many, I am unimpressed with the 622 radio, do we know what the deal is with this guy or is it our mission to find that out at the moment?

EDIT: Flashed this radio, stuck in roaming mode. Flashed back to 0622. On Verizon in Chicago, for reference.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PharmCAT:
Confused here too, why does it say the old version number?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HarleyChick:
+1 - confused here as well.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PharmCAT:
Okay, so I flashed the latest one,

And that's what it shows up as on the phone "1.01.50.0817", it's slightly different in the number as the other one, but kind of odd that it jumped from 1.01 to 1.09 and now back to 1.01

Here is the full list with the dates when they were added, http://cmw.22aaf3.com/vivo_w/radio/
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PacerguyDon:
So had anyone had any luck with the new radio yet?

I've just downloaded it... guess I'll find out :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PharmCAT:
Edit: Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] skyline247:
No luck with the Newest? Radio 1.01.50.0817. No bars, and I can't even roam with it, so I went back to 1.09.01.0622. I am in Pineville, SC.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PacerguyDon:
Yup... not working in Utah either, just get the flashing roaming warning. Oh well, nothing ventured nothing gained.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] 4GivenByChrist:
No success here, no bars, roaming error...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gu1dry:
The newest posted radio is from a Chinese regional CDMA carrier, so that is maybe why Verizon users are not having much success with it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bluedegeon:
Seems like people in the east are having problems. Anyone in cali try it out?

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ABQNM:
If you notice that all the RUU's with 1401 in them (the Chinese releases) all have a radio that has the third series of numbers as 50. The US Verizon releases all have 01 as the third series. I would stick with US released radios for US Verizon phones.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rfarrah:
That would explain why the 701 radio didn't work for me either.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] anesh01:
any update or is 622 still the latest......
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rfarrah:
AFAIK, 622 is the latest. Unfortunately.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] franklin270h:
Makes me wonder where the inconsistency is cuz 622 was much better than the froyo radio for me
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kazba1626:
Hey guys anybody have any suggests on which radio works the best?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] AZKJS:
Using TSM Pool Party 1.3

1.01.50.0817 doesn't work! calls outgoing (*228 etc) says its roaming but there is no connection to Verizon here in Utah.

1.09.01.0622 connects fine.

*228 can activate (#1), but wont "Stalls" during update to roaming(#2).
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rfarrah:
I'm running MIUI 9.9. The ONLY one that works for me is 622.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kazba1626:
Oh gotcha thanks.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] digitalsynner85:
Running CM7 w/ latest Tiamat kernel and both the 225 radio and the 622 radio both work, but I live out in the boonies so I get next to no reception so they're both roughly the same for me. Also tried MIUI 9.9, Newt's Sense ROM, and OMGB (all versions most up to date) and I get the same reception on all the ROMs. Bleh, sucks for living in Louisiana
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] anesh01:
is it possible to use the radios from say, an thunderbolt ?? anything is better than the 622 radio ?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:

lol, thanks for the heads up, i havent tried it, nor will i attempt to, im just hoping something comes out that can be better than the .622 radio
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Relay:
Radio 1.09.01.0722 is out.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] anesh01:
has anyone tried the 722 radio yet ??
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] digitalsynner85:
has it been extracted from the OTA for flashing on rooted devices?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Relay:
I don't know. I can't get any update from Verizon in China.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] AZKJS:
Coming from 0.99.01.0225_2 I tried 1.01.50.0817 but no luck in Utah! says it has GREAT signal, but wont connect to calls or send messages no *228 ether

1.09.01.0622 works fine but doesn't seem to be better than 0.99.01.0225_2

Do I have to do it one step at a time? is that why it didn't work going from the latest Froyo to the latest GB?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] digitalsynner85:
That 817 radio is not a US radio which is why it isn't working for you....the only US radios in the list are the.two that you have said that worked for you, the 622 and 225....the way you can tell is the 01 right before the last set of digits
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] AZKJS:
Now I know what "1" they were talking about. I was lost but now I understand! Thanks.

Hey - I would like to try this, but I am a little bit confused about the instructions. It says to DL the file somewhere to my computer, and then run some terminal commands to push it onto the phone - I have never done this before and don't want to f#&@ up my phone.

Could someone clarify exactly where the file should be on my computer, and then how to run a dos prompt to flash the file?

thanks!

*i know how obvious that sounded, i just don't want to be that guy who broke his phone and is whining about that. thanks for the hand-holding.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PharmCAT:
Same here, put the phone into airplane mode, turned it off and everything 3G and mobile turned back on just fine. Seems like there are no issues so far.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rfarrah:
FWIW, I don't go through all those steps. I put the file on the root of my sd (making sure it is the only file of that type in root and making sure it is named correctly - don't add .zip to it; it is typically already there). Then boot into hboot/bootloader; it asks if you want to start update; you press the volume up button to say "yes". It updates the radio and will tell you when it is complete. Press power to reboot and you're done.

Note: If you go to hboot/bootloader from the reboot menu, it will go to a screen that you will need to SELECT hboot in order to get there. Use the volume key to move up or down the list and the power button to select. It can be a little slow to do so, so don't be in a hurry and start pressing buttons. Patience and being very careful is key.

ALWAYS do a nandroid backup first. Good luck!

....and I'm test-driving 722 today, too. So far so good.....
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ben805:
Love the new radio. Much better reception and data speed than the previous one I had. No problems so far.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] romma1:
Just updated. to the new radio.

Question: When I restore an existing backed up rom, does the prior radio apply? Or does the rom override onto the new radio?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PharmCAT:
Roms do not touch the radios, so it will stay the same from one rom to another.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] romma1:
That's what I thought. Learning a lot over the last year of hackery...

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ABQNM:
I pulled this from the unsigned dump posted by jcase last night and have been running for about 13 hours now. I am seeing a significant improvement. (I am running MIUI, but that doesn't really matter that much for the radio.) Previously with 0622, I was consistently 10-20dbm lower than my OG Droid sitting right next to it. Now they are almost equal. I have never seen my dinc2 get better than -80 and I am currently at -73dbm in the same location where before the flash I was at usually -85 to -100dbm.

Seems like a keeper.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bik2101:
i'm also another one getting much better reception with this latest radio. getting about 8-10 dbm better than i was before at work. hopefully this improvement carries over when i get home.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ABQNM:
Really happy. It is nice actually seeing "bars" on my phone. lol Since I got it, they were a rare occurrence until now. Not that I pay attention to them anyway as I only care about the actual number, but it is still nice that the phone looks like it has service now.

Hi guys

I have recently bought a second-hand SGS, after having used Iphone 3gs.

All nice, a few issues, you could help me with:

1. Wifi - I get it only through AllShare, read this is the solution. Correct.

2. GPS - installed Igo - works sometimes, some other time it takes 20 mins to get GPS signal. Solutions??

3. Lag + enter an app (AngryBirds for ex) and it turns whole screen black for 1-2 minutes?

4. In Kies on computer via USB it says:

Current Firmware: PDA:JP7/ Phone:JPP/ CSC:JP6 (ORO)

LATEST: PDA:JS4/ Phone:JPY/ CSC:JP1 (ORO)

A bit of background. This phone was on Orange Romania, the seller unlocked it for me, I'm on Vodafone Ro.

If I update to new firmaware:

- do I lose apps and settings?

- do I get a Orange branded version?

Right now, no orange bloatware is installed.

Many thanks guys!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkstriker:
This is a firmware bug (never seen it happen before though). It may well be fixed with an upgrade

The SGSI has a strong GPS issue (the antenna is not good enough). Add to that, that Samsung screwed the firmwares in terms of GPS for a long time and you get what you are experiencing. The update might help some but it will be far from a complete fix.

The lag-issue is well documented. The safest and easiest lagfix is voodoo lagfix. Find the current version on the forum (also be careful what android version you are using, see Settings-->About Phone-->Android Version) and apply it. There are tons of guides for this (including one in my FAQ)

Well logic would suggest that ORO is Orange ROmania so yeah this will be a carrier specific firmware. However, since you aren't rooted, there is no way you could possibly have deleted any bloatware. Thus the update may give you a branded version but it is unlikely that this version actually contains any bloatware.

If you lose your apps and settings is not always easy to answer. Usually Samsung Kies updates do NOT wipe applications and settings. However, this is not something i would guarantee especially seeing how some Android versions are simply not compatible enough to transfer app installs (and especially settings). You may want to root your phone using CF root (or some other root-only custom kernel) and backup all your apps and settings with Titanium backup (from the market)

Edit: As far as I am aware the Unlock on the SGS is permanent. It should not be removed but anything. If it is, the unlock is available for free via tutorials in this forum
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrei12345:
it works ok, thanks guys! deleted some settings, didnt delete apps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave759:
If you ever have enough of the frustrating lag-tastic software that orange provide, I'd recommend rooting your phone using the EZbase method which give you a basic GB package to which you just install a ROM of your choice. Here's the link anyway;
