These radios are for the CDMA HTC Evo 3D (e.g. Sprint).

Do NOT flash these radios on a GSM HTC EVO 3D!​

/* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or the end of the world. Please do some research
* if you have any concerns about flashing a radio before flashing it!
* YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the
* finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you. */

How to Flash:

In order for this to work, the HTC Evo 3D needs to be S-OFF. Flashing the radio with a corrupt file or interrupting the flash, can brick the device, please proceed with caution.

Download the your choice of radio for the HTC Evo 3D.

Make sure the filename is PG86IMG.zip exactly or it will not work and copy it to the same folder as adb (the /platform-tools folder within the Android SDK folder).

Connect the HTC Evo 3D to the computer via USB.

On the computer, open terminal and run the following commands:

adb push PG86IMG.zip /sdcard/PG86IMG.zip
adb shell md5sum /sdcard/PG86IMG.zip

NOTE: The md5 should match up the provide the original download location. If not, redownload & try again.

adb reboot bootloader

The HTC Evo 3D will reboot & usually boot into fastboot. Pressing the Power button will put the device into the bootloader.

The bootloader will scan for the radio update. Once it finds the update, select Yes.

Allow the bootloader to finish flashing the updated radio, and reboot the HTC Evo 3D normally.

Awesome, thanks for taking the time to gather this.​
[HTC EVO 3D] wwjoshdew:
I like 4G... Got a 2 bar 4G signal as I write this. :-(
[HTC EVO 3D] swatspyder:
As a quick FYI, if your WiMAX fails to start after you update, don't say I didn't experience this ;)

Currently in the process of checking if it is due to updating the WiMAX partition, or since I am still running the OS from before the OTA.

Full flash of the new software revision fixed the WiMAX issue.
[HTC EVO 3D] Droga:
So, does any of the latest radios (Im still on .0513) offer a significant increase in signal? My signal at my house is CRAP, and I already have an Airave for my mom's house, so I cant contact Sprint and request another one. This is actually one of the MAIN reasons for me wanting root, so we could flash newer (and potentially better) radios (seeing that a better radio will help with any battery issue also).

Just and idea, but how about adding a date beside the radio's to show when they were updated.;)
[HTC EVO 3D] southern87:
So if your on .530 already this is pointless to do right?
[HTC EVO 3D] bluediablito:
Question

- what file do I flash first the winmax or the radio?

- can i grab the file and place them o. My SD card and flash VIA recovery?

- can i back up my current status (radio and winmax ) incase something goes wrong I can revert back?

I have hboot 1.40 and radio .518 don't know the winmax s-off cwm recovery and stock ROM with super user if it helps.
[HTC EVO 3D] THunDA:
Yup, no need to reflash if your already on it.
[HTC EVO 3D] vWvSTATICvWv:
Thanks for posting. I'm still on 518 and have no issues. Anyone who has upgraded to 530 notice a difference?
[HTC EVO 3D] alammori:
Is your WIMAX working?
[HTC EVO 3D] htabbach:
since I did the s-off my 3g has been real bad. Is this known issue?
[HTC EVO 3D] vWvSTATICvWv:
Yea...WiMax is fine. It's been shoddy in my neighborhood but it's great everywhere else I've tried.
[HTC EVO 3D] myndwire:
So has anyone bumped up to the latest radio? I'm already on current wimax, but my radio version is the one it seems everyone else is on. I'm also skeptical that they're in named PG56IMG.zip, and shooter's supposed to be PG86IMG.zip... any clues? Has anyone done this and verified that everything is still operating? Radio was a huge part of S-OFF, so I'm quite leary to flash the latest...

Also, has anyone worked on pulling NV/PRI? Those will most likely exist inside all of the RUUs/OTAs mentioned.. I know it's early to dig into this type of stuff at all, but I'm sure someone has been daring enough to test the latest radio ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] gu1dry:
The reason the files was named PG56IMG was due to a minor mistake on my part. The file is valid, just a brainfart moment from working a 8h shift thru the night.

If you tell me which images they are I'll pull them & setup the zips, but the Evo 3D's naming convention for those images is different from past "Evo" devices.
[HTC EVO 3D] smw6180:
Flashed the latest wimax and radio (and yes I changed the name tp PG86IMG.zip) and still have s-off, root and no brick. All is well.

Can't say it made any real difference, but typically radios don't so I'm not surprised.
[HTC EVO 3D] AyoJake:
i flashed both of them everything is fine im guessin the newest ones were the bottom ones?
[HTC EVO 3D] THunDA:
Same here, worked perfect! thanks OP
[HTC EVO 3D] gu1dry:
I may have working update.zips that are flashable via recovery, but I need someone to test it. Join me on Freenode #cm-wiki if you would like to help with testing.

It has been a loooong time since I've been able to flash any kind of Radio update (due to the sh**** 1.5) but now that im downgraded to 1.4, i feel like a noob lol :D soo im going to ask because i cant seem to find an immediate answer.. Can anyone point me in the right direction to finding the latest radio ALONG with the newest WiMax update as well pretty please????:confused:

Edit: if someone could PM a web page or something that has the latest radio and wimax in it i would gladly appreciate it

sorry for the biggest noob question, but i want to be extra sure that im not going to put hboot 1.5 back onto my phone (i just downgraded to 1.4, pita), will ANY of the radios changed a hboot? im on 0.97.10.0530 and would like to upgrade to the latest. thanks

My Bootloader doesn't show my 3D's radio.

i'm on HBOOT 1.50 where the radio should be there is the

eMMc-boot.

where are my radios?
[HTC EVO 3D] mteezey:
I think 1.5 is a little different and doesn't show radio version. Just look in settings/about phone/ baseband version
[HTC EVO 3D] mteezey:
Radios won't touch hboot. Just make sure if its a package that there is no hboot in there. If your s-off flashing hboot 1.5 won't give you s-on. You would just have to roll back to 1.4 just by flashing not downgrade method.
[HTC EVO 3D] paallday:
Lol ur all good but fyi now that u have s off u COULD update 2 1.5 if ya wanted...theirs no reason 2 unless u wanna just flash a ruu 2 update everything...(must had things done 2 it that freeza or 1 oh them usually do) but my point is s off overules ruu at least 4 that last update..

Judt fyi

Well I have no idea if you can flash through image GUI or w/e all u 1.5ers use, I'm kinda feel like its nit even possible.... But I dunno...

What I do no is if u downgrade and s off u will be able 2:D

PS if ya need help pm me...
[HTC EVO 3D] dusters16:
i had went ahead and flashed the latest radio at the time. no noticeable change, and no change to the hboot. thank you though for taking the time to provide an answer :-)
[HTC EVO 3D] gokart2:
I flashed Freeza's All-In-One. The new radio sucks more then the last one at my house, in the middle of nowhere. That being said, can I just flash the previous radio, or will the "new" firmware make it not compatable?
[HTC EVO 3D] laie1472:
Nope I did the same after flashing the aio. So your fine to flash the older radio.

thank you, lets see if this one works good, i found 518 to be the best for me

---------- Post added at 01:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:27 PM ----------

just a quick heads up, i've noticed an instant improvement with this radio, and that's saying something cause i have an airave, now the phone only drops to 3 bars and that's a lot better then none, bravo to this new radio
[HTC EVO 3D] notsointeresting:
Flashed it and the phones still here so it works :D

Not sure of speed improvements because I use wimax.

updated radio just fine, s-off 1.40 hboot and running chubbz sense 4.0 ics rom. my phone is running fine, this rom doesnt have 4g so cant test that, but i previously flashed the VM firmware and my phone still says virgin mobile, hopefully after flashing the actual sprint release of a rom itll fix that. if not, oh well.
[HTC EVO 3D] SketchyStunts:
did you check to see if the md5 matched?

[HTC EVO 3D] bpc4209:
Does this include the firmware as well like freeza's all in one did before?...because the last radio if you just flashed it by itself it would cause random reboots if you didn't flash the new firmware with it.

Yes, im on hboot 1.4 and i use freeza radio fix but i don't know about reboots bug, i throw the question because i think new baseband/radio firmware are for better signal..

I used the ICS radio firmware, and then when I got back into the ICS rom I was running (can't remember which one, I've changed to about 4 now) My phone just randomly shuts down. I went back to the original radio firmware that my phone was running, and now no more shutdowns.

I'm just wondering is this a coinsidence? or is there an additional file I may have to load to prevent the shutdowns?

I originally was on 2.08.651.2, and went to 2.89.651.2 (ICS) got random shutdowns so then went to 2.17.651.5 and still got random shutdowns, then finally took it back to original (2.08.651.2) and no more random shutdowns.

I am S-OFF on Hboot 1.40.

Edit: these are the OTA release numbers not the firmware release numbers
[HTC EVO 3D] DJB628:
Has there been a benefit to upgrade to the new radio, or is there not much difference.
[HTC EVO 3D] fourstar89:
Newb question here is adb required u can't just flash? not sure if the OP has been updated.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
The files in the OP are meant to be flashed from the bootloader, which you can start with ADB from a PC or by removing/replacing the battery, then holding VolumeDown+Power until the bootloader starts. You must be S-OFF for the bootloader to flash firmware. If you are S-ON, you will need to relock the bootloader and run the 2.89 RUU.exe from Windows.

The files on the OP of this thread only flash the radio portion of the firmware. You might be better off using one of the files from Freeza's thread with the new firmware if you are S-OFF, which will give you all the new 2.89 firmware, with or without the 1.58 bootloader. Ignore his warning about losing S-OFF if you flash the version with the 1.58 bootloader because that won't happen.

[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
Bars are different from Rom to Rom. Especially sense to aosp. What you Ned to look at is actual dB. I'm sire its the same on that Rom as a sense rom.

Hi I have a question, im s-off from the latest ruu and lastest radio, can i downgrade the radio to a gingerbread One, because im from México and I been flashing a few 3vo and work perfectly with my carrier but I buy one that come updated whit the lastest ruu and this give me only 50 kbps downloading but 800 kbps uploading speed, so slow on download, I think this could be because the radio, I flash it good several times and there is no way to get better speeds.

So I need to know if is secure do a downgrade of radio? I don't want brick it

Thanks a lot

Sorry my bad English
[HTC EVO 3D] Roxxas049:
You need to be on any hboot below 1.57 I believe in order to flash an older radio. But also consider that the PRL can affect you upload and download speeds too.
[HTC EVO 3D] carlosirai:
I been trying a few prl and all give me the same speeds, so like I'm s-off I need to downgrade the bootloader and then downgrade the radio?

**edit**

All the prls I try are from my carrier :thumbup:

Radio isn't gonna fix it. Maybe try profile reset in epst

Ditto, I could use a link if the don't come up.

I've got baseband 0.97.10.0530 on my phone. I want to install the CM10 rom which says I should: " Have latest Sprint firmware installed." - does that just mean installing the latest radio? Or is there another thing I should be doing?
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
The OP of this thread only has radio firmware and if you are coming from an older release of firmware I would recommend flashing the 2.89.651.2 RUU and then flashing a custom bootloader and recovery, or at least using the firmware zip from Virus's post that contains a more complete set of firmware.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] NegatedVoid:
So that will upgrade my HBoot? Do I need to do anyhting special to protect my unlocked-device status?
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
It will upgrade your hboot to 1.58, but not change your S-OFF status. If you want an hboot other than 1.58 you can use this post to flash one after you install the new firmware.

Whether or not the bootloader is unlocked doesn't really matter as long as you are S-OFF. I assumed that you are since this thread is intended only for S-OFF users.

[HTC EVO 3D] myndwire:
seems a lot of folks have had ok experiences flashing the latest radio.... did you ever get your issue resolved?
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Okay guys, any results?

In the past with radios I had no results (on E4G for instance) but I sure did this time.

On the newest radio I got the lowest signal strength and the lowest data speeds.

On the stock radio. I got better signal strength and better data speeds.

On the oldest radio I get the same signal strength as stock but the fastest data speed. All 3g, 4g is a bad joke around here so I just update to latest and forget about it.

Keep in mind that none of these differences are staggering, but, they are noticeable. My signal sucks no matter what, I'm talking about difference between 0 bars and the first 2 bars. Though speed is a difference between 400-600kbps and 800-1400kbps(!)
