[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
I've been flashing radios and hboots all day long, in various combinations and whatnot - some combinations clearly don't work, others sorta work, others won't even boot, etc.. but this is all pretty normal. But I have had absolutely no issues with my radio not working when I flashed back to one I tested and know works. I have not flashed any RUU on my phone ever, just the individual hboots and radios - and while I've played with the ICS leak radios (to no avail with the GB firmware) i have stayed away from HBOOT 2.21 since, to my eyes at least, that seems to be the one thing everybody with a problem has in common.

The people who are having the issues are losing 4G connectivity, regardless of what radios they have flashed, it seems..
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Yeah, I suppose hboot 2.21 from ICS leak "could" be causing the problem but if that is so I would being seeing it too and I dont. Everything is dead on with my phone.

So the people that took 2.21... Have you tried to revert to full GB 2.x firmware and problem persisted?
[HTC Rezound] dwertz:
My experience.

BAMF ICS (leaked ICS HBoot) -> SOFF (jb_hboot(ics) -> downgraded radio 2.01 (4g Broke)

Fixed mine

Ran 1.02 RUU (still broke) -> Ran 2.01 RUU (still broke) -> installed GB Eng Hboot (still broke) -> ran 2.01 RUU -> Factory Reset in the bootloader menu (Fixed).

Since then I have ran RUU 3.11 and now have Radio 1.22.10.0310r, 1.22.10.0308r and RunningRezRom S4 v1.1 and no issues.

I personally think it corrupted the radio files, I think wiping it several times in different ways and reinstalling it should fix it. So methods wipe better than others.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Yeah I agree. Like I said though, its pretty hit or miss. It seems that NOT everybody who flashed HBOOT 2.21 has a problem, but it also seems that everybody with the problem HAS flashed HBOOT 2.21... I dunno I'm kinda at a loss myself at coming up with a sensible explanation.
[HTC Rezound] TypoCorrecto:
Possible Solution...

Ok, so I successfully got S-Off and started having the 4G issues, like many of us, with both the GB and ICS RUUs. My phone was Unlocked, S-Off, GB and ICS, and all different kinds of radios with no success toward a stable 4G connection...:mad:

I was getting my mind ready for a warranty replacement, then I thought I may try one more thing...

I Relocked my phone...

Flashed the latest OFFICIAL GB RUU...

Returned to S-On...http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1612937

Flashed the latest OFFICIAL GB RUU again...

Once the phone loaded up I waited to see what happened...4G dropped again...:confused:

With only a glimmer of hope left I went to settings and did a Factory Reset, erase the phone storage and kept the SDcard intact...

Once the phone loaded up again, I waited...1 hour later...4G has not dropped once and is STABLE!...:D...SUCCESS!...so far...

I have not yet unlocked, went back to S-Off, flashed any custom roms or recoveries.

I hope this helps...
[HTC Rezound] craven667:
Not sure why he would post like he did and crash noobs phones or people thinking this is a update
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
I flashed all these and mine still works fine! Its not the OP's fault, its the noobs' fault for flashing **** without knowing what it does or what the outcome might be.
[HTC Rezound] badogg:
Exactly. We all assume our own risk with doing all this awesome stuff. If my phone gets jacked up, it's my fault.
[HTC Rezound] prdog1:
I've never downgraded radios. They upgraded them for a reason. lol
[HTC Rezound] mjh68:
Hehe , I had to chuckle at that :)
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
Just RUU'd back down to the 1.02.605.6 firmware with their respective radios. I won't get 4g until I get to class tomorrow morning. I'll update with my results.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
It's called contribution to the community, it would of been done by people regardless, no regrets as it was spotted as soon as soff occured so warings can be put in place in the soff guides.

I'm victim of it as well not like I posted and let people flash away. I got a replacement coming and using my hosed phone as the guinea pig for any and all testing to find a cure
[HTC Rezound] dajmanjt:
Update!!!!!!!

After starting the thread on possible solutions I found the simplest one that I have now tried multiple times on all ruus and the ics leak and it works on ALL OF THEM. Funny thing is that it is the simplest solution of all... It has been reported a couple of times now by different users I just tested it out intensively on all combinations. The steps are:

1. Relock your phone

2. Use a ruu to reformat your phone and restore

3. Then reboot into bootloader and DO A FACTORY RESET.

4. Reboot and enjoy full 4g

Have no idea why it never occurred to me to do this but I can verify no 4g drops on any combination of rom I have tried after those steps are competed... As long as you don't DOWN MIX AND MATCH FIRMWARE AND RADIOS. I have gone 6 hours straight no drop all 4g. Try and report back... I'll post it to my solution thread.

Thanks to whoever posted the find first....
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
I might try this. Do you have to do the factory reset directly after the RUU? Cause I just did one like 20 minutes and then did a NAND restore of an Ineffabalis ROM I had before flashing the ICS leak and messing around with the radios.
[HTC Rezound] dajmanjt:
Not sure I did it directly after on all my tests so I don't know if it works another way...

Lol the step no one talked about... Factory reset.

I can confirm that on a custom engineering hboot not relocking you're phone prior to ruu can result in errors during the process. Happened to me so I have been relocking every time now....
[HTC Rezound] dwertz:
Youre welcome. :) glad it worked for you.
[HTC Rezound] prdog1:
Am I missing something here. If you have s-off why are you unlocking your phone.:confused:
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Yup, if you're not using the eng hboot, then you're missing something if you didn't unlock again... better do your research thoroughly.
[HTC Rezound] prdog1:
Using GB Eng hboot.:D
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Not sure what you are saying?

I agree and disagree.

Agree: You and you alone are responsible for what you flash to your phone. HTC locks them for a reason.

Disagree: This doesn't mean that people can post **** to the Internet and tell everyone to try it without some semblance of responsibility and ability to help fix. You need to know what you are doing when you start posting flashable firmware items such as Radios and hboots. If you dont know then you shoudlnt be posting them.

Middle Ground: You might want to think twice before flashing radios from someone you dont know. :p

OP: Dont take that the wrong way... Im just saying... Not trying to beat you up or anything... Just saying...

Thats what I am sayin!

Yeah, but I think it would be better to use the eng hboot... For a few reasons... But its strictly choice I guess. But you dont gain anything by being S-OFF alone on this device. Its not like prior devices where S-OFF meant you had free reign. On this device, even with S-OFF followed by an RUU flash... You cant even flash a recovery unless you Unlock or flash hboot. Kinda strange... But it works for me :D I dont have unlocked any more and I am S-OFF! FTW!!!!

-Scott
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Yeah, I totally blame myself. *sigh*
[HTC Rezound] :
This might be off topic but I have read posts in this thread about users still unlocking.....

Someone remind me again.....why are people "unlocking" when they have s-off? Seems pointless to me.....

I can see if the user has s-off with a stock hboot, then he would need to possibly unlock but with juopunutbear modified 2.21 & 2.11 hboots, and the eng hboot.....seems pointless to go thru all that s-off effort just to stay stock hboot with limited s-off ability....
[HTC Rezound] jskolm:
Because as part of our testing fixes some of us went back to S-ON just to try and rule out some stuff.
[HTC Rezound] bravac:
So for those with 4g probs, has factory reset after ruu made the difference?
[HTC Rezound] dajmanjt:
Yes in every test i did i got perfect 4g by doing a RUU and then immediately doing a factory reset
[HTC Rezound] jskolm:
Yes, that fixed my 4G as well. I am all good, now to get S-OFF again.
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
Update... So far so good. Getting good 4g signal.
[HTC Rezound] Irieone:
That is the last official RUU from Verizon correct?
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
Nope. That's the one that comes stock I'm pretty sure.
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
2.01.605.11 Should be http://goo.im/stock/vigor/ruu
[HTC Rezound] Irieone:
Thanks, for that clarification
[HTC Rezound] :
Well I can see the need for the devs to this .......but I was basically talking about the average Joe. But thanks for the info :)

HTC Rezound via TT2
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
Issue still persists for me. Anyone found a fix yet? I'm going to try the factory reset directly after RUU to see how that pans out.
[HTC Rezound] dwertz:
Make sure you do factory reset in the bootloader. Also check your md5 for the ruu
[HTC Rezound] dajmanjt:
Factory reset from bootloader directly after the RUU is the fix. Confirmed on multiple devices on multiple RUU's and ICS leak. Let me know if it works for ya :)
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
I'll try and let you know. It sucks because I can't do the RUU on school computers. Does does anyone have the PH98IMG of an RUU? Would that even work. I only get 4g an hour away from where I live, then do the RUU. Then wait until tomorrow to know if it even works, not to say it won't.
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
Here is the GB RUU in a zip. Just rename it and on sdcard. http://goo.im/stock/vigor/ruu
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
Does it contain the radios? I can't seem to find them. Forgive me if they are there.
[HTC Rezound] prdog1:
Radios always in the RUU unless someone takes them out.
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
That's what I thought, but I can't find it's location.
[HTC Rezound] prdog1:
One says mdm9k.img and other says radio.img. Open archive with 7-zip.
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
Ahh I see now. Thank you.
[HTC Rezound] emarietta:
So if I flash the ruu and the gb hboot in cons post then my 4g and happiness will be back?
[HTC Rezound] jskolm:
Do this below. It's what has fixed this issue for us.

This worked perfectly for me also. Everything is back to normal on my phone now.
[HTC Rezound] prdog1:
Do right after. Must be on stock hboot and recovery for factory reset to work.
[HTC Rezound] emarietta:
once i flash it in the eng hboot doesnt it install the stock hboot that it comes with and just flash the recovery?
[HTC Rezound] dwertz:
When you run the stock RUU it will wipe the Eng Hboot that you previously had installed. Then you do a factory reset in bootloader

Weird, only one thanks for finding the factory reset fixes this.
[HTC Rezound] prdog1:
Nature of the beast on XDA.:rolleyes:

Even though I new better than to flash old radios and mix RUUs I'll give you thanks for them.:D
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Thats not an RUU, thats only a stock rooted ROM. That will not help.

I dont have the RUU up on my site but if someone needs It I can upload it real quick...
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Maybe thats why I never mix and match radios and ALWAYS recomend a hard reset when flashing ROMS. Hmmm... Wonder if I am on to something here? lol :p

Maybe one day people will believe what I say... lol ;)
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
So I just ran the RUU and I wasn't sure whether to let it boot into the ROM first or not. But i just pulled the battery. Got back into the bootloader and then hit factory reset. So I should be good now?
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
My bad. RUU here http://goo.im/stock/vigor/ruu. As long as you have a stock recovery and do a HBOOT factory reset it should fix everything.. I dont know if you have a custom recovery. haven't tested it yet
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
Well I guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow to check. It's strange because I'll have a decent signal on my commute to school, which starts about 20 minutes in. Then once I actually get to school which is where the signal is the strongest, the 4g signal dies.
[HTC Rezound] jskolm:
Actually you are incorrect. You always recommend a full wipe when flashing a ROM. That is done in Recovery. That was NOT the solution. The solution was to do a Factory reset in HBOOT. That has never been mentioned on here before as a solution. Every always says to flash the RUU to reset everything.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Well the hboot reset fix works, good cause the CLNR replacement I got for a Rezound was a damn thunderbolt...wtf?

Anyways I'm gonna do a few tests to see if we can go from gb radio to gb radio without issues. And ics to ics radios when we get new ones. If that holds true I will repost the radios, disclaimer and fix in case someone doesn't read carefully.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Yeah custom recovery wipe worked for me I think its the cache as when I posted radios they deleted cache and fat command in Android info.txt ill give it a shot though to confirm.
[HTC Rezound] dwertz:
I did :P

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25274570&postcount=198

I usually never downgrade radios, I was on the leaked radio and I know my signal was better with the 2.01 radio so that is why I downgrade. I know typically they say newer is better, but when its based on a leak that is not always true.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
So I assume you dont consider an RUU a ROM?
[HTC Rezound] willsully1221:
Is there any eta on when the links shud be up? Or can anybody post me a downlosd link for the GB lte radio please!
[HTC Rezound] Flyhalf205:
They will probably be down for a bit cause its causing some chaos but this link has the GB Radio http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25238446&postcount=1
[HTC Rezound] willsully1221:
Thank u! Im guna go flash it now cuz i cant take this signal loss every minute
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
I'm on the road guys but I will repost when I get home but if you need a certain radio or radio package pm me for links. Specify release radios, latest ota, or ics
[HTC Rezound] willsully1221:
Connection still keeps dropping like every five minutes.. whats wrong with my phone?
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Will go to hboot and select clear storage option,
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Will go to hboot and select clear storage option, or for more effective fix flash ruu of your choice, use clear storage option after ruu, install hboot of your choice, flash recovery of your choice
[HTC Rezound] willsully1221:
When i pressed the clear storage option, it went to the splash screen then booted into recovery. I didnt think it did anything so i looked around in recovery for that option and cudnt find it. Did it dow wat it needed to do or am i missing something here? (Thanks for the reply)
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
U have custom recovery? If you press clear storage if your stock recovery you will go to black screen with greenish phone icon then will see grey progress bar. If your on amon ra then wipe everything twice except for sd and internal sd card.
[HTC Rezound] willsully1221:
I tried wiping on amonra, but when I did, it just wiped everything, before it gave me options on wat I wanted to wipe, now it just wiped all. So how shud I wipe everything but sd and internal sd?
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
No need to wipe external sdcard, thwres option in amon ra to wipe both though
[HTC Rezound] willsully1221:
So it doesnt or does effect/matter if i just wipe all? And alsk, out of curiosity, wat does wiping everything twice do?
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Ensures a clean wipe that's all. If this don't work then run ics or gb ruu, then run clear storage
[HTC Rezound] willsully1221:
Ya the wipe still didnt fix it, looks like ill have to flash an ruu. And (im sorry for the questions) but wat does clearing the storage do?
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
It makes 4g work after screwing around, that's all we know
[HTC Rezound] willsully1221:
Alright well thank u so much for helping me out with this, ima try all this later tonite and pray for sucess
[HTC Rezound] jarora24@gmail:
does this radio support gsm ?

any gsm radio available?
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
I can vouch that doing factory reset on stock hboot fixes 4g. This is the longest I've had it in a week! Thanks for whoever figured this out. Very clever.
[HTC Rezound] prdog1:
Wonder how many replacement phone orders Verizon got over this.:rolleyes::D
[HTC Rezound] hopesrequiem:
Yeah mine finally worked after the 2.01.605.11 ruu.exe and clearing it. Ruu.zip wasn't getting it going right. Or I waited too long to factory reset it. Im still full stock cause I'm scared to do anything haha. I'm an og with s off too. Coming from the bolt, this device is scary at times haha
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
Don't be scared. I did a nand restore of ineffabalis and everything's working just fine.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Thanks for bringing these back. I do appreciate having the files available in case they are needed in for development or "testing" purposes ;)
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
That second sentence is a little unnecessary.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Part of development is flying blind, don't know till we try. Worse case warranty swap, I've decided if we don't brick it this weekend I'm going to go ruu to ota, then fast boot erase the radios and system only, then s-on the bootloader. So phone will go to hboot so they can flash and send out again as opposed to destroying the nand permanently
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
I prefer the term "Calculated Risk" :p
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Fine, edited. Still has 2 sentences tho.. =/
[HTC Rezound] Cares:
Does someone have a new HBOOT+radio combo for the ICS OTA?
[HTC Rezound] SteveG12543:
From what I've heard the OTA doesn't have newer radios or HBOOT.
[HTC Rezound] Tachi91:
RUU_VIGOR_ICS_35_S_VERIZON_WWE_3.14.605.12_Radio_R S_1.22.10.0424r_3622A_MR3_9K_release_270509_signed .exe

The last Radio i could find was 1.22.10.0310r and so the OTA says 1.22.10.0424r.. ????
[HTC Rezound] Tachi91:
Here are the OTA ICS Radio [-->[ 0421r/0424r ]<--]

Took them out from the OTA update post HERE ->-> "3.14.605.12" and made a PH98IM zip.

Flashed with no issues, but I'm not in a LTE area to tell if there's a difference
[HTC Rezound] Quantumrabbit:
I'm downloading this now, and will install it this morning.

Maybe a stupid question, but I've been running custom ROMs on this for a long time, is there something other than the radio I could be out of date on and needing an update? (Kernel aside... damn I want that source code to drop)
[HTC Rezound] Tachi91:
OTA Update being pushed out

New Radio ""2.22.10.0801r/2.22.10.0803r""
[HTC Rezound] jonesj8:
I'm running the most current 2.25 hboot s-off newest adrenaline ROM 2.0 which isn't this same kernel. Would it be fine to flash?
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
It should be fine. I would recommend keeping an RUU handy though, just in case.
[HTC Rezound] Tachi91:
Radios are kept seperate from the OS so you can flash nomatter what ROM you have.

However build props along with other system file differ between ROMS. So keep a version of your current radio ready if you face issues.

And always double check *#*#4636*#*# incase your network preference changes
[HTC Rezound] replica9000:
Is there a changelog on what changes in these radios? I'm still running 0.95.00.1017_2r / 0.95.00.1013r with HBOOT 2.11.2005 with Adrenaline 2.0 ICS and everything is solid.

Signal strength for CDMA/EvDo is on par with my DInc, which is better than any Moto or Samsung phone I've used. 4G works great when I'm in an area that has it. I have to force my phone into 'CDMA auto (PRL)' at home because I seem to be on the edge of a 4G area, so at home my phone will drop 3G for a 4G signal I don't quite have.

I'm glad everyone found a solution for the 4G problems, but right now my radio isn't broke, so no need to fix it!
[HTC Rezound] imparables:
S-Off, JB 2.25 Hboot, Adrenaline 2.0 and my Rezound is running great with these new radios.....have been for a few days now.
[HTC Rezound] nimbice:
The links are all dead. I can't find another place to download rezound radios. :-/
[HTC Rezound] joeymagnus1:
There's a couple of links one page back.
[HTC Rezound] noakcess:
All links are completely dead.

someone please help with the radios. i got a rom loaded and working nicely, but no data.

hopefully flashing a radio will make that work.

Thanks in advance if anyone can help.
[HTC Rezound] REV3NT3CH:
whats your carrier....did you set up your apn's if your a gsm user as well as switch to gsm in mobile networks settings
[HTC Rezound] noakcess:
Verizon.

If it is that simple I am going to kick myself. I didn't think of checking the gsm settings.

Trying it now.

From my past experience with my vibrant I could flash any radio that was compatible with the rom.

Thanks a Million!!!
[HTC Rezound] Abu-7abash:
For some reason, the GSM thread in the Q&A had some members reportedly having fixed the sms issue on the leaked ICS. Now that didn't work for the others but still could be, and the radios also could well be the issue. The probability is there. And Im all for keeping the options open, that's all.

Come off like a douche? Lol. If only you took a good look at the way you post before labeling others.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
has anyone tried to mix two different LTE and CDMA radios together?
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
My data keeps randomly shutting off since I flashed the leaked radios. I just reflashed the leak, then the most recent GB radio, so far so good.

Just so everyone knows...altgough it could just be my own dumb ass at fault.

[edit] yeah, that didn't work. I'm going to try...something later. RUU maybe.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
I was going to separate and label the radios individually in a little bit. Just need to motivate myself to get moving today. Once I get some coffee in my system ill get to it
[HTC Rezound] loolugee:
So will different radios make rezound work in tmobile or art in U.S.??

If not, is there a RIL or framework fix??
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Ha ha so, now I just get 3G. *sigh* On the road, so troubleshooting later, but if anyone has any fantastic ideas, let me know.
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
So, I assume there's a lot of variation between mixing different radios with different firmwares between phones and using them in different areas in general right?
[HTC Rezound] Poolman1:
Here is the Leaked CDMA and LTE radios from Ics 3.11.605.22 for those who want to go back without doing the Full RUU

IcsPH98IMG.zip

md5: f2a2b33d5f48c415616dd77e5c47dcdf

Ok what am I missing, I flashed this in Hboot and I am on RezROM 3.4. I still do NOT have S-OFF.
[HTC Rezound] Abu-7abash:
Interesting. Which version did you flash?
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
If your trying to flash only the radios it won't work without doing a full RUU. You need soff to flash radios independently if I recall
[HTC Rezound] Poolman1:
Here is the Leaked CDMA and LTE radios from Ics 3.11.605.22 for those who want to go back without doing the Full RUU

I see it says "without doing the Full RUU". I does NOT say to downgrade the radio.
[HTC Rezound] rwc95:
We have s-off now and you can flash the radios seperately. But only if you have done the procedure to be s-off.

---------- Post added at 05:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:40 PM ----------

This does not give you s-off. It is the radios for s-off phones. There are posts everywhere about how to get s-off now. You cant flash the radios without being s-off.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
I know we got soff...whole purpose I started this thread lol
[HTC Rezound] Dalamar1320:
So my question is I would prefer to get back to the gb radio after going to the leaked ics radio. I'm on the latest RezRom ics so can I simply flash the gb radio and all is well?

The only reason I want to go back to the gb radio was that when I moved to the ics radio, people I call complain that I sound slightly muted, but didn't have this problem before. Heat and battery issues weren't my main concern at this time.
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I flashed the ICS leak, 4G didn't work. Currently on the most recent GB radio. 4G works, but it drops out every couple minutes.

3G worked great on both.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Yup sure can I'm on rezrom 3.4 with moderate usage on official gb latest radio and I'm at 12 hours, and 20 percent to go on regular battery
[HTC Rezound] Dalamar1320:
Thank you sir!
