Thanks for your help! I took a backup of my ROM before doing this. After I run the factory reset can I restore my backup or do I need to run with the "factory reset ROM"?
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
It's possible the backup may bring back the issues, if it does try a fresh install
[HTC Rezound] derek4484:
Thanks for putting these files up. but I can tell you, damn the new radios SUCK BALLS!!! I was running the 2.1 radios (0.95.00.1118/0.95.001223) with the 2.11 HBoot with Scott's Clean Rom 4.4 with the new 4.5 kernel/wifi module flashed on it. My 4G speeds werent great, around 5-6Mbs. Now with the 5-7 radios and the 2.25 JB HBoot, my speeds are godawful slow. i'm maxing out at 1.5Mbs and 220ms ping, and this is with 4bars, -81dbm strength. I guess I'll be flashing back to the old radios.

Where can I find the right radio/firmware/Hboot from the original ROM. I know the Hboot was 2.10. The files you have on your download site are from the 2.1 OTA update because they have the 2.11 HBoot.

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
I might be able to find them later today, or if someone could link me to the ruu I can make a zip
[HTC Rezound] cowman4000:
Interesting, mine are about the same with the new radios (5-7). I can pull down 19mbps here in Denver.
[HTC Rezound] derek4484:
My speeds were great here when I first got the phone in January. I was consistently getting 28M/14M any time day or night almost anywhere i was. Then the OTA (2.01.xxxxx) came out and the speeds went down to 6-8M up and down. And they've been consistently at that since. Today I finally installed the newest 5/7 radio files and wow the speeds were terrible and the ping was high and I had a really strong signal. I'd like to try and revert back to the radios that I had when I first got the phone which were from the 1.02.xxxxx ruu.

I do like having S-off and being able to flash different radio combinations to try and find the best one for where I live. When I had my samsung galaxy S that was a big thing. There were literally dozens of different radio files and depending on where you live certain ones were better. But they were super easy to flash.
[HTC Rezound] HowardZ:
One can find that old ruu file here

btw, Your link going to android file host does not seem to work anymore?
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
I was trying to grab a file from the link myself just a little while ago.

Check the owner's twitter account. His server went down and he's restoring his sites.

Edit: Appears to be back up now.
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
I'll update this to the new ota either tomorrow or Monday

Whenever my home internet gets installed

Afterwards I might not update this anymore unless people request it since I've changed phones

I might see if another method done on the one x forums works for our device, if so these may become flashable in recovery
[HTC Rezound] Cares:
Which one is the latest HBOOT and radio combo? Newest file I see is 2 months old.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
2.25 is the version that was in the OTA.
[HTC Rezound] Cares:
OK thanks...radios weren't changed from what is in any of the 2.25 combos in OTA?
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
No. I believe the 3.14.605.5 leak was the last time there were any changes to the hboot or radios.
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
Got home WiFi, it pretty much sucks

Download is about a 1mbps and upload.... I cant upload anything! :P

Mjones is helping me with the ota, he's going to package it up and ill throw it up on AFH for yall
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Give me a day or two, there's been a couple people posting just radio update files in the mean time.
[HTC Rezound] keolawills:
2.27 is latest hboot and radios are 2.xx. the new firmware came with the ota update to ics that is currently being pushed.
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
Thank this guy for helping me!

All the files are on AFH

One is the complete firmware combo with the stock 2.27 hboot and one with the patched 2.25 JB for those who need fastboot
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Glad I could help, this thread is quite handy.
[HTC Rezound] spitzaf:
Can someone extract and upload the newest firmware? 4.03.605.2
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
Isn't that what we already extracted?
[HTC Rezound] spitzaf:
Looking again i think it is there. Feel like i was looking through several threads for quite a while and only found ROMs and such.

EDIT :

Made my own from the AP file, looks like the files in the last uploaded zip in the AFH page match the new ones. Changes to the 4.03.605.2 firmware package must be in all the other files (system).
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
It's the same as 4.03.605.1
[HTC Rezound] arbrouwer:
I currently have 2.11 and ICS. When I upgraded from GB I used the patch. If I want to get to 2.27, do I simply flash that file or do I need to flash the New_firmware first? Thanks for the assistance.
[HTC Rezound] zekemo:
Running the latest radio files with the JB 2.25 hboot, liking it so far. Thanks for the thread.

Just S-ff'ed and loaded the newest radios. Went up about 3mbps.

[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Back up your rom, flash the firmware, restore your rom as needed, flash the patch. You need to revert the vold.stab back to the ICS settings so the SD card can mount.
[HTC Rezound] snowman122:
How do I do that because everytime I reboot my phone I have to mount it manually!
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Mount what manually, what are you running?
[HTC Rezound] fallen00sniper:
This is for me. :)

Um where do I get that?

I can't use Amon Ra?

So let me see if I understand this.

If I use these for ICS I will no longer need to use the patch and might possibly stop dropping network?

Will this correct the sdcard mount issue in Roms such as cm9 dmeadows is working on?

Can I revert it if I ever needed to go back to GB?
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
On androidfilehost

Yes to everything else :P
[HTC Rezound] vortmax:
I've noticed that my phone gets much warmer on 2.25 than 2.11. Anyone else experiencing this? I'm also guessing that 2.27 will be primarily the same as 2.25 (from a radio perspective).

Thanks,

Jamie
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
I flashed the JB2.25 hboot and firmware - caused my phone to get hot, drain battery quickly and become extremely unstable (constant reboots every few minutes, especially while using Maps or any app that uses GPS)

I'm not sure if this is a problem with the package I installed, or if perhaps I just needed to do a full wipe and start from scratch with the latest firmware since my ROM has always been based off the ENG Hboot and GB firmware..

So anyways, then I used your other package to re-install the ENG Hboot and GB Firmware. I should have looked at it first but didn't - so I missed that it contains a recovery.img and replaces whatever recovery you are running with the stock one. A minor pain in the ass, but nothing critical. Just figured you may want to pull the recovery.img file out of that package so it doesn't end up overriding everybody elses preferred recovery with the stock one..

Has anybody else had such terrible results when using the newer hboots and firmware?
[HTC Rezound] WookieFan:
I am pretty sure superchilpil includes the stock recovery to allow proper flashing of the firmware & radios. A factory reset from the stock recovery addresses the issues you just described.

After that's done you can flash back whatever recovery you prefer.
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
Thanks for keeping these updated.

Edit; to the above poster, I don't believe these have the stock recovery
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
The ENG Hboot + GB Firmware package from the first page definitely does have the stock recovery in it, and it definitely does overwrite whatever you currently have when you install it, so be aware!
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
I didn't use that one. The newest radios with the jb modded hboot definitely doesn't include recovery. I just went to recovery to be sure
[HTC Rezound] sliding_billy:
Thanks for keeping these combo sets up to date. So much nicer than doing the RUU.

---------- Post added at 07:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:31 AM ----------

No recovery in the 2.27 stock either.
[HTC Rezound] lancasterv3:
Thanks chillpill for these! I apologize if i should not post this here but I just want to make sure I do this correctly, thanks in advance. I am currently

ROM = ViperRez 1.0.3

Boot Loader Access = S-off

Recovery = TWRP 2.2

HBoot = JB 2.25

Radios = 1.22.10.0421r/1.22.10.0424r and the most current ICS Firmware before the official release.I am planning on wiping and going to a different ROM after this process so I can have a completely clean install.

My Plan is to update my radios and firmware with [ICS][2.27][stock][8-12] provided in the OP.This is what I plan to do.

-Rename the above file to PH98IMG.ZIP flash in HBoot

-Boot back Into ViperRez to make sure data in intact.

-Delete the PH98IMG.ZIP on my SD Card

-Boot back into Boot Loader-Factory reset

-Reboot into recover from Boot Loader

-Do some more wiping via TWRP "Not sure if I loose this recovery upon flashing radios/firmware"

-Flash new ROM

-Allow ROM to boot then go back into Boot Loader and re-flash TWRP.

-Good to Go?

I apologize for the long post I have done a lot of research on this, I just want to run it by the experts thanks again.
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
You don't have to do quite that much. Your recovery will remain. Just download the 8-12 2.27 hboot combo, rename PH98IMG.zip, place on ext sd card and boot to hboot, update, then reboot and delete or rename the PH98

There's an unlocked hboot posted that you can flash after that instead of unlocking the stock hboot, and that will allow you full access to adb and fastboot.

Wiping and flashing the rom won't hurt but you don't have to do it unless you want to or you're changing to a different rom or different version.

After your first reboot if data isn't connected, you can just toggle airplane and give it a minute.
[HTC Rezound] lancasterv3:
Thanks so much for the reply! I had a feeling I may have been over doing it. If for some reason there are data/heat issues I have seen many refer to factory reset from h-boot is there a difference between H-boot resetting and recovery resetting?
[HTC Rezound] winston856:
I have the same setup but different Rom. 2.25 jb h boot. Can I just download the 8-12 jb 2.27 h boot and flash that without doing anything else?
[HTC Rezound] lancasterv3:
just an update flashed and everything went off without a hitch thanks again I really appreciate it!
[HTC Rezound] hoovnick:
Just to make sure I'm not missing something, when i go to the hboot, the item in the list says "recovery" when it finds the PH98 file. This correct?
[HTC Rezound] Wendemixda:
I just got S-off but did not accept the jp hboot during the process because I wasn't sure. Now, my bootloader says "locked" and I can't install anything through fastboot. Is there an alternate way to flash the firmware or a custom bootloader like ENG boot or jp boot?
[HTC Rezound] TUDrewser:
That happened to me at one point...just used my unlock bin file to reunlock.
[HTC Rezound] hoovnick:
Yeah, figured out i had the wrong file renamed. got it firgured out.
[HTC Rezound] scottyh73:
So just to make sure im good and on the most recent firmware and radios now. This is what i have

So does that mean i now have the global update and can install any new rom that says i need firmware 4.03.605.2?

I thought I would lose recovery after flashing the ph file but i didnt. However my hboot now says tampered/locked instead of jbear like it used to.
[HTC Rezound] Damasterjj:
[GB][2.11][JB]PH98IMG.zip deletes custom recovery and install stock recovery. I just had to reflash amon ra and everything is back to normal.
[HTC Rezound] zekemo:
You might want to PM the OP, he has retired to another device.
[HTC Rezound] snowman122:
I'm guessing so because I flashed this then the custom hboot by vinylfreak and installed ineffabilis deus 1.2 and I was good to go!
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
which zip gave you those radios?
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
I still visit every so often :P

The reason for the stock recovery being included is when I first started making these everyone had data issues, the only way to fix them is to factory reset in hboot with the stock recovery

Just use either 7zip or root explorer to take out the recovery.IMG and zip it back up

Odds are if you downgrade you might encounter the data issues still so that's why I never took them out, plus everyone likes the ICS firmware so no one complained
[HTC Rezound] scottyh73:
It was the [ICS][2.27][STOCK][8-12]. Was that not the right one? I would think my baseband should be showing 4.03.605.2. Thanks for the help in advance
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Baseband version doesn't match the Rom version, it's hboot version 2.27 that came with the latest ruu.
[HTC Rezound] nujackk:
ok so what are the most recent baseband numbers we are looking for? and how do i get them with out flashing RUU or OTA, Just want to update my radios.
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
I don't know the numbers but this is from the latest ota

[HTC Rezound] apophis9283:
Pretty sure that the ICS OTA update. There should be another firmware link.

http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...lobal-capabilities-installation-instructions/
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
That would be the latest firmware/radios minus the 2.27 hboot, it has the JuopunutBear 2.25 patched hboot in it instead. It will still work fine with roms based off the global leak.

If you want the current hboot also - http://www.androidfilehost.com/main/-Support_Files-/SuperChilPil/[ICS][2.27][STOCK][8-12]PH98IMG.zip

---------- Post added at 01:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 AM ----------

It's the global firmware, since the official OTA contained firmware that had already been leaked, there was no new file uploaded here when it officially came out.
[HTC Rezound] zekemo:
Is there any reason to be using the 2.27 hboot? I kept the 2.25 juopunutbear on purpose to keep extra commands(not that I ever use them)
[HTC Rezound] apophis9283:
Theres a patched 2.27 hboot if you really want it.
[HTC Rezound] pmania:
What all does a factory reset do? I flashed firmware and now my battery is crap...
[HTC Rezound] kkozma:
I'm on this one currently: [ICS][2.25][JB][5-7].

Before I pull the trigger to [ICS][2.25][JB][8-12], I've read that flashing the same HBOOT will brick, but the info on that seems to be conflicting. Can anyone clarify for me please?

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Rezound] spitzaf:
If you're worried, you can always use one of the 2.27 hboots available at [MOD] 2.27 hex edited hboots!. These are unlocked, so you get all the commands you'd find in the juopunutbear versions, but also updating to 2.27 from the ICS OTA.
[HTC Rezound] AtomicFizzle:
Anything you all can think of that would cause random reboots after updating to the global firmware? I was on GB firmware, then went to 8/12 2.27 Stock. I did a complete wipe, factory, cache, davlik, etc. I went from ViperRez to Vigor360 at that time. The only other thing I did was flash vinyl's 2.27 hboot.

Anyway, it was pretty unstable - lots of random reboots - so I decided to try some other roms. But with all of them I am getting random reboots. Sometimes it will run fine for a couple of hours. Other times it will reboot a couple of times in a row. Sometimes I not even hardly doing anything when it happens (like, listening to music). I'm currently using Rezound Cubed ICS 1.0.3 and I'm still getting some random reboots here and there. Between flashing new romsI would wipe completely.

I was pretty stable on the GB firmware. Any ideas?
[HTC Rezound] v4npro:
I have a question, might sound dumb but, I was originally on the first leaked ICS with HBoot 2.25 and the .421 radios. I recently S'Off and updated my HBoot to 2.27 and radio's to latest. Is the firmware on the first ICS leak same as OTA? If not, can I update only my firmware and nothing else?

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] zekemo:
Its my understanding that if you have the latest hboot and radios you have the latest firmware also
[HTC Rezound] v4npro:
Thanks
[HTC Rezound] Matthenson20:
So the ICS 2.25 Boot will have the 1.xx radios and not the 2.XX global right? And I can use this to go back from global? My battery is terrible with the new ones
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
Bumping this old thread, ive updated the link to the new android file host. He removed the md5 calculator on the old site so i transfered over so you can see the md5's

[HTC Rezound] loki993:
Im not seeing any MD5s where do I get them? Should I be using these or a different firmware and radio?
[HTC Rezound] zekemo:
Looks like the files were moved to a new site with a md5 calculator but the link is to the older site. The OP made a post about it above yours, might PM him.

Quick question, if anybody is still around. I am running on the JB hboot 2.25.2525 and have 2.22.10.0801r/2.22.10.0803r radios and openDSP is 14.6.0.7708.00.0507. Can I install the latest hboot? I remember reading not to flash over radios with the same radios, would this be a problem? Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] SR3TLAW:
Z,

To verify. When I click your link on the first post to your list of downloads (whitch I may say are mighty organized and wonderful) is "[ICS][2.27][STOCK][8-12]PH98IMG.zip (290 views, 62 downloads)" the latest and greatest hboot/radio?

Thanks friend
[HTC Rezound] zekemo:
Aye sir! There have been a few OTA updates since this thread's final post but I am not sure they contain a new hboot. The new OTAs do contain new radios though, so it is likely. I would update your phone with the RUU and catch the OTAs and update that way.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
New release also has new hboot. 2.28.
[HTC Rezound] SR3TLAW:
When you say upodate your phone with the RUU your referring to simpily flashing the PH96MG file or whatever its called

My current setup....

Hboot 2.21 modified by juopunutbear, s-off juopunutbear, RezROM 3.4, TWRP 2.1 Recovery for ics.

.....So if I flash this, it will downgrade my hboot to the 2.11 eng s-off, and my firmware correct? Then after I flash this I just need to flash the old firmware patch? My current Rom and setup will stay intact?

Will I have ics or gb radios after I flash this?

So I flashed this, then wiped and flashed the ineffabilis Rom and updated the PH98IMG and it is getting stuck at the 4GLTE screen for a really long time (like 30 mins now). Now I can't get back to recovery because the PH98IMG is on the SD card (and I don't have a micro SD card reader at work, or an adapter - I know, lame rookie mistake). there is no way to get the PH98IMG off the card or get into recovery now right?

I switched from what jbear installed to.this. flashed the firmware and all with the patch since I'm on ics. 4g craps out every few minutes. the radios are right so perhaps a different hboot and/or switching to 2.x firmware since I'm still on 3.x for ics?
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
Well this should downgrade your firmware.

It may have to do with an ics Rom, mine does the same but a quick toggle of mobile data brings 4g back instantly

With ics firmware I had to use the lte toggle and set it to lte mode then back to cdma/ lte Evdo auto just to get data back so this is an unfortunate improvement to me

A warning needs to be added to this thread as this was the only thing i flashed after s-off that destroyed my 4g.
