[HTC Rezound] rwc95:
lol I didnt even pay attention that you started it. The way it was worded I read as we cant because there is no s-off.
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
Did anyone else get any internal memory wipe when flashing these radios?
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Yeah. I was mildly annoyed.

Then I flashed another one later and had forgotten about it. Two surprises for the price of one!
[HTC Rezound] emarietta:
Anyone else 4g go in and out on new firmware using official gb radios?
[HTC Rezound] rwc95:
Yeah just did, its super awesome because i just erased my backup of my internal sd from doing the s-off. Not a huge deal but hopefully everyone else will read this first lol.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
The android-info.txt probably has the wipe command in it.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
I pulled the android infos from their respective RUU's.

Not cool never noticed it till now Im gonna have to fix this I apologize guys
[HTC Rezound] con247:
Good work lol
[HTC Rezound] rwc95:
yeah the android txt says del fat:1 at the end. Im guessing we could just erase that from the line of txt. Anyone with a little more knowledge on this stuff care to comment.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
yeah just delete the whole line.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
all links have their android-info.txt updated now guys.

I think i got it all sorted out now Should be perfecrt
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I have it going in and out on old firmware with any radio currently. 3G works like a champ.

I'm going to screw with it here shortly.

[edit] So, it still drops 4g occasionally, but is seeming to pick it back up right away...I haven't even done anything yet. O.o
[HTC Rezound] Dstu03:
Might be helpful to list the radio numbers in the op. Thanks for pulling these I was going to do it but fell asleep last night
[HTC Rezound] emarietta:
yeah mine picks it up but its really annoying cause it goes out all the time in the middle of stuff.,but im runnign rez rom sense 4 and havnt had any overheat or anytihng .. btw we live in the same area.. i love columbus 4g.. sooo fast
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I have flashed everything I could think of. I will do a RUU later I think.
[HTC Rezound] emarietta:
Yeah I was thinking of just ruuing back to gb but Rez rom is going solid for me fit now so I'll stick with it until we come up with a fix
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
I am having the same problem. Only thing I can think of is it may be the ENG Hboot.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Done :cool:
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I had stock GB hboot when it first happened to me.
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
well I just flashed stock hboot, and worked fine for about 10 mins, now doing the same crap.

Did not have this problem with ICS Hboot and radios from the leak. I am about to go back to that as this is frustrating.

I am downloading the pre release RUU and was going to try the radios off of that, as they are different than the OTA and Pre-OTA radios.
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Please let me know how that goes. This is really f***ing annoying.

I'm going to RUU later.
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
soon as the RUU downloads I am going to pull the radios, and I'll post them on here, so if OP wants he can add them to his thread. That is if Con doesn't beat me to it.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Which RUU you pulling them from? all we need is the ruu with .914r radio believe its the 1.00.605.3 package.

If your going for those put them up ill put them in my dropbox and add links and md5 info
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
Yeah that RUU. Con actually got them to me, and before I pass them on, I am checking a few things. Currently flashing just the radios you get zero cell connection, and the phone freezes and reboots after a min or so.

Flashing the firmware, and the phone connects then reboots constantly. Unless Con wants to say otherwise, I am not going to recommend anybody flashes this.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
i noticed googling that ruu not very popular, we got a handful of radios now.

Ill post and reiterate experimental only on those radios.
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Damn. I was hoping this would fix it. Can we strip the firmware off of a different OTA?

I hate RUUs. Thats why I haven't done it yet.

[edit] Nevermind. I found it. *sigh* I don't even know what I'm doing anymore...stupid night shift.
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
So here is my findings playing with these radios.

They only work when flashed with hboot 2.05. DO NOT work with any hboot 2.10+

They are FAST, and have GREAT connection. BUT! 4G after being used for a few mins, CRASHES, and then is SLOOOW. have to toggle airplane mode to reset. Eventually 4G wouldn't come back without a hard reset.

So my vote, is not worth it.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Referring to the .914r radio set correct?
[HTC Rezound] RDxxASSASSINxx:
has anyony had any 4g issues with new firmware flashing any radios? i flashed the gb ota radios and no 4g for longer than a minute or 2 so i flashed the leak radios back and same thing. then after getting irritated i grabbed the ics leak ruu and rip the recovery and hboot from it and flashed it and when it booted up i was still having the same problem... i have since then restored my nand but im still not getting any 4g service at all.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
I dont have 4G here at the house but I made my sdcard setup to flash any ruu multiple recovery versions all radiosetc so I can tinker on the road tomorrow.

But heres a thought have you guys that are having 4g issues tried to change the modem settings ##778# press call, edit mode 000000 as the code, them go to modem settings and change REV.A from eHRPD to enable? Give that a shot and post results. Perhaps the mix n matching isnt fully compatible with VZW ehrpd protocol
[HTC Rezound] RDxxASSASSINxx:
well i commited changes and it rebooted and i have 3g but no 4g still.... outage maybe?
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
yes.

I meant to try this earlier and it slipped my mind. Good idea!
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
perhaps (and u can revert changes later if you want i use this when i get stuck in 1x mode and wont transfer to 3g) was just an idea. out here from Western PA to entire northeast we got major wind and rain and some snow so it could be affecting the network
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
I am reflashing ICS Leak, ICS JuopunutBear Hboot, and reflashing Bamf 2.1 which I had perfect connection on earlier.

Going to bed right after, but I can report back tomorrow, but I bet I have perfect connection like I did earlier today. Something with GB got goofed with s-off I just have no idea what.
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
[edit] nevermind. There it went.

I had the same issue with 4g. I ended up fixing it (at least so far) by flashing con's GB ota update with the firmware, the restoring. Even with the eng hboot.
[HTC Rezound] TypoCorrecto:
I was having the same issues with losing 4G/3G data after S-Off. I saw this post this morning:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1614366

After following the instructions my data connections, 4G & 3G, are stable so far. Good luck...
[HTC Rezound] imparables:
Yeah, again this seems to be very solid for now.
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I followed them...same bs.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
have you run a full RUU?
[HTC Rezound] RDxxASSASSINxx:
i did last night minus the hboot and recovery. didnt help anything. best progress so far is gb firmware and eng hboot combo. 4g is now there but drops every 5 minutes and i have to cycle data for it to come back on. i might try redoing the ics ruu again just to see.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
Try literally running the .exe version on a windows PC. It will take your phone completely back to stock except it will be S-OFF
[HTC Rezound] dajmanjt:
what exe version are you talking about con? i would like to try that version....
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I will be doing that after work...so in about 7.5 hours lol
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Just a heads up for people who are playing around with this stuff now - I have had excellent luck with the combination: 2.11 ENG HBOOT, both radios from latest ICS Leak, the kernel zImage from the latest ICS Leak. I also have made my own RAMdisk with init.d support, and my own custom flavor of Android 4.0.1 with Sense ripped from the very first ICS Leak out as my base ROM. So far things are working great! I am loving having the same flexibility to flash things on my phone that I've enjoyed on my tablets for so long!

So in summary: GB ENG HBOOT + ICS Radios seems to work great together, for those who were wondering.

**edit

I was just notified that 4G doesn't work well in this configuration. Didn't notice myself because I always have 4G disabled. So I guess if you use 4G, maybe don't flash the ICS LTE Radio.
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
4g doesn't work on new firmware with original radios that come with phone. I'm gonna try the 2.xxxx. Radios with new firmware.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
In addition to the fact that LTE doesnt' work when you combine the old HBOOT and the new ICS radios, NEITHER radios will work if you attempt to use the GB LTE radio in combination with the ICS CDMA radio.

Phone boots, finds no service, and within a few minutes just reboots. *edit* Also, settings crashes immediately.

ENG HBOOT 2.11 + ICS CDMA + GB OTA LTE = fux0red
[HTC Rezound] emarietta:
Im on new firmware with the latest gb radio and 4g goes in and out. You'll have it one minute then it's gone then you'll have it again
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
Thanks for the heads up.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Ok guys tested many combinations, even a ics RUU stock. My conclusion is soff LTE and 2.21 hboot whether it be stock or jupos missed hboot. Don't mix well
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Ok guys tested many combinations, even a ics RUU stock. My conclusion is soff LTE and 2.21 hboot whether it be stock or jupos missed hboot. Don't mix well. Personally I think its soff in connection with the hboot, may need a ics eng hboot. Gonna try few more tests on the road. To better find culprit. So far only fix is gb firmware n radios with ics patch.

The benefit of being truck driver I can test this in the field in and out of 3/4g
[HTC Rezound] RDxxASSASSINxx:
I use linux.... Anyone have a flashable ph98img.zip I could run from hboot? I found one but hboot wont run it...
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Anyone find winning combination I've tried them all and 4g dies after few minutes then have to toggle to get LTE back. Full ruus, mix n match hboots etc can't get solid 4g even with the post of gb firmware n patch for ics. Even ruu to full gb and 4g dies....may have to ruu to ota and return this I think. Can't imagine that soff alone screws with lte
[HTC Rezound] con247:
It might be a coincidence... maybe your SIM card has gone bad?
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
I tried all possible combinations earlier today and made a little table, but I left it on my computer at work. I can post it tomorrow if that will help people out..
[HTC Rezound] dajmanjt:
I doubt it.... I am experiencing the exact same thing. After S-off i have gone through all three ruu's (two exe and one flash) and have had 4g drops with all. tried all the radios and the same thing. Why would multiple peoples phones be doing the exact same thing after completing s-off? i think it has to do with the hboot and somehow a incompatibility that is jacking up my 4g. After extensive testing that is my theory anyways...
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
I can't even connect to 4G anymore. Stuck at 3G. My friends phone has 4G so I know its up.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Anyone try going official gb hboot then son
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Just ran the RUU. I'm going to let it chill at stock for a few and see. Taking it very slow to see what happens and try and isolate a culprit.

[edit] Even on stock RUU it drops 4G. :(
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
I tried the GB RUU but the System would FAIL-UZ whatever that is. And did the ICS leak RUU and nothing changed. Flashed every ROM on my phone. Everything. Nothing. Just doesn't want to connect to 4G
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Lunatic try going s-on let's see if its related
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
So, I tried the command, here is the input/output:

C:\Android>fastboot oem write secureflag 3

...

<bootloader> [ERR] Command error !!!

OKAY [0.000s]

finished. total time: 0.000s

hboot 2.11.0000

VIGOR PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

Did the command wrong. I'm S-ON'd now. Will report back.

[edit] Well. S-On, still on the Stock RUU, and its just fine. I wonder, though, if it's the S-Off method (I find that unlikely because then there would be a lot more complaining), or just because I flashed a Radio (specifically the ICS radio) on the wrong firmware. Thoughts?

Spoke too soon (again). It just took longer to drop off.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
So I think we fried something in s-off procedure I think, like missing the pin etc
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
Which RUU did you use and was it a .zip or .exe ?

---------- Post added at 10:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:30 PM ----------

Not exactly. My 4G was working perfectly until I tried downgrading. :(
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I used the .exe; specifically:

RUU_Vigor_VERIZON_WWE-2.01.65.11_Radio_RS_0.95.00.1123r_9K_QMR_release_233635_signed.exe

Also, mine was fine until I tried changing the radio.

As a side (and unrelated) note, being completely out of the box stock bothers me. :D
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
Try the 1.02.605.6. My 4G started working again :D (fingers crossed knocking on wood that it still is working as i send this message lol).

http://www.scottsroms.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=37

Now the OTA is downloading so going to let that install and then report back but 4G still up :D:D:D

EDIT: It so weird being back on GB haha

EDIT2: I am still S-OFF btw never went back to S-ON
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Can we wipe radio partition and flash radios via fastboot?
[HTC Rezound] tjdub:
I lost 4g when I gained s off,tried different radios and it was a no go, so I just went back to to Rom, radios and firmware I had before and after 2 charges I rebooted the phone and all of a suten I got 4g back
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Eh, not worried about S-Off. It only took me a couple of tries on the wire trick, so I'll do that again later.

Downloading that RUU now. Will report back shortly.

My 4G drops out every couple of minutes (anywhere between 5 and 10). Going S-On didn't change it though.
[HTC Rezound] tjdub:
Maybe we just need to let our phones chill for a day or so
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
Won't you need S-OFF to downgrade?
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
So I've just realized...
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
Well Good luck getting S-OFF. Took me almost an hour getting that stupid timing thing down. I just installed the OTA and so far my 4G is still on. Going to flash the ICS leaked RUU and hopefully be back to normal with 4G working. This time I won't be changing any radio or hboot after I flash.
[HTC Rezound] tjdub:
I never went the s on route I had the ics leaked software before I got s off,after I coudent get 4g to work properly I just ran the ics ruu and went back to rezrom
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
Yeah my 4G issues started when I went from ICS leak to GB. I went back to ICS leak and the issues are still there. Ever since I flashed that ENG Hboot.
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
S-Off wasn't that bad for me. It only took me a couple tries.

I just dev unlocked and rooted, I'm going to let it sit for a few and see what happens.

[edit] And the same 4G fail. Time to S-Off and downgrade!
[HTC Rezound] bravac:
for baseline purposes:

I was on the latest leaked ICS ruu stock, then S-Offed 2 days ago, but didn't flash any new hboots or radios or roms (just left what I had before and rejected the last part of controlbear prompt to flash hboot), and at first (couple hours after s-offing), noticed some wonkiness in 4g/3g, but later that day and up to now, i'm getting strong steady 4g.
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I honestly think it was flashing the ICS radio on the old firmware that f***ed it all up for me.

Oops.

I just RUU'd to the 1.02.605.6 version, we'll see how it goes.

Side note, I can get S-Off in like 5 minutes now...lol
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
It's possib downgrading left bad files, we may have to fastboot erase and reflash everything manually to get clean again. That's like 10 imgs from ruu I think
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I never had the leaked firmware.

And it just dropped again. *sigh*
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Also lunatic, id be helping test but I'm on road. If that ruu don't work I have idea....fastboot erase radio partitions n relash via fastboot. If u wanna try that
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
I made a thread over in General to draw more attention to this issue but no luck so far. Guess i'm going to flash 1.02.605.6 again and revert to S-ON and flash the leaked ICS and see what happens
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Let me rephrase this, because it's clear from the post what it does.

What is the precise command I need?

And how likely (or unlikely) is this to hard-brick my phone?
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
We can't brick as long as we have hboot soff worse case ruu to flash radios after. I think its LTE radio that's botched which is mdm9k.img and mdm9k partition
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Thats true. I should know better from my Inc.

What is the fastboot command though? I'm only sort of familiar with it. :/
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Believe command is fastboot erase mdm9k

And fastboot erase radio

Then fastboot flash radio radio.img

Ans fastboot flash mdm9k mdm9k.img

Make sure the files in directory where fastboot is
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
I just flashed the 2.01.605.11 radios on top of my HBOOT 2.21 and my 4G is working. Oh Happy Day! haha
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Apparently I need the eng hboot for that. Updating!

[edit] well, the commands went through successfully. Cross your fingers!
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Wait a few fly itay lose 4g after five min
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I had a 15 minute run like an hour ago.

Also, it booted just fine after running those commands. Now the test of time.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Both erase and flash commands worked?
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
That just ruined my happiness. I just restored a backup so we'll see if 4G stays on when it comes back up.
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Yup. But at the 5 minute mark, it dropped 4g. Damn.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Ok go thru the ruu and do same for everything except hboot all img files shoul have a partition
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
Up to the 4 minute mark and 4G is still up. You went through and flashed all three possible radios?

Edit: 10 minutes and 4G still up :D
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
you mean wipe it and then run the RUU?
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
No one by one wipe each partition in fastboot and reflash them same way you did those two

But not hboot lol. Guess we can skip system too as thats just the os.

I don't have access to view ruu to name the files off top of head
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
I hope to see the OP updated once a method is figured to keep 4g stable
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Or if u want lunatic I can pm my number n try walking u through it
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I think I got it. It just took me a minute to figure out how to pull it out of the RUU. Long work day lol.

I just ran the 2.01.605.11 RUU. It was reporting no service, so I was curious. And now it's reporting service. Will report back on the 4G shortly.

[edit] My damn roommates are playing Call of Duty while I do this...talk about some bs lol

[edit] 4G fail. Time to try the manual wipe deal.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
You erased and flashied each item individualy ?

Edit guess not this our last hope before claim I think lol
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Alright, I just went through, it would only let me erase radio, mdm9k, and sbl3. It said that mdmrcdata and rcdata were not allowed to be erased.

Now its wait and see time. :/

[edit] Is there a way to pull a radio log and see why it might be doing this?
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
Good luck man. Finally got mine to work. So when I get on in the morning yours better be too. :D
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Ha ha, we'll see. Just hit 5 minutes and still going, so improvement I guess.

[edit] There it went.
[HTC Rezound] RDxxASSASSINxx:
Hey man you guys need to pull those radio links until this is resolved I think...
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Just don't flash the ICS radio with the GB firmware and you should be fine.

I've thought of a couple more things, although I don't really want to update to the leaked firmware, so we'll see.
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
so 4g hasn't been figured out yet? I'm on cleanrom dev edition,s off,switched to Eng hboot with 2.x radio combo zip.
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Not yet...I'm still rocking GB though, so I don't know how applicable anything I may figure would be to ICS

[edit]So, I flashed this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1614366

And I have eclipsed the 5 minute mark...will continue to monitor.

[edit 2] 4G fail.

[edit 3] I think I'm done for the night. Although I'm not really sure what else I could do. *sigh* That'll teach me to tinker!
[HTC Rezound] RDxxASSASSINxx:
Dude I was on ics and flashed the 2.01.605.11 radios and started having the issues. I'm pretty sure all links need to be pulled until this gets resolved.
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Well damn. Consider my foot firmly inserted in my mouth. o.o

It would seem that this phone does not like having the radio flashed at all. Which is weird. I did it a ton on my Incredible. And on my Touch Pro for that matter.
[HTC Rezound] RDxxASSASSINxx:
I think people just need to run the ruu downgrade/upgrade and reflash recovery and hboot. Then flash Rom. Just sayin. That's a lot easier than messing with all this bs and a possible warranty claim...
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Agreed.

But guinea pigs were needed I suppose.
[HTC Rezound] RDxxASSASSINxx:
Just sucks it had to be us. Lol. I gotta call in tomorrow to get this thing warranty replaced....
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Yeah, me too. Oh well. The price of progress!

Its nice to provide something for xda though...even if it is a warning sign.
[HTC Rezound] craven667:
Need to let moons know this not for tmob
[HTC Rezound] dwertz:
I did try that and still same issues, dropping 4g and 3g getting network errors

I was on BAMF ICS and did the SOFF and everything was good, downgraded to 2.01.605.11 and have done everything, even went back to full stock RUU and still the same issue.
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
All said and done, I think anything but an upgrade is a terrible idea. I may run the ICS leak just to see what that does. I wonder if the radios change something.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Lunatic if your still on i have an idea i was able to flash alot more items than u but i cant test as im not in 4g area

but if you wanna try....
[HTC Rezound] dajmanjt:
I wonder how many people flashed this - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1614366 - and then started jacking with the radios. I only started messing with radios out of necessity since I flashed the old firmware from that other post and instantly destroyed my 4g. I had perfect 4g on everything until i did that. Then i went to try and fix with different radios, 3 ruu's, and every solution i could think of.... to no avail. Both posts need to have warnings about permanent 4g loss and/or constant drop out. Hopefully there is a solution... but im getting pretty close to being out of options.
[HTC Rezound] dajmanjt:
Can you post the 2.01.605.11 Radio package for me... i am trying out a solution that one of the other posters found to work to bring back his 4g permanently. Greatly appreciated....
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
I think I may have screwed up my 4g, too. I'm on the new firmware and I flashed the 1.xxx radios and the 2.xxx radios without a consistent 4g signal. I'm back on the ics radios and still don't have a good signal.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
I would pull these then OP. It looks like the only safe way to downgrade is run a full RUU with system and everything.
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
Thanks, con. Looks like that's my only option.
