I have been using the new 1.38 radio rom for a day now and I have given it a good testing and workout. So far I have definately noticed a big improvement in phone signal strength with hardly any dropped calls, (but this could vary between network providers) and there does seem to be an improvement in battery life. It is early days yet but all seems good and I have had no problems with the new radio, so I cannot see any reason not to recommend it.

I'm going to go back to 1.34 - I'm having the same sort of problems now as I did with 1.35.

Connection is intermmitent in areas where I have no problems with 1.34.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Shaun33:
Since 1.20 in my jas Jam i feel reception has decreased. But on the other hand i have had issues with my telco in this area. 1.38 did chew my battery. So i have dropped back to 1.27 to see how it goes.

On Cingular Towers.....

Updated to the new Radio to try and fix dropped call issues on Radio that came with Cingular 2.06 shipped ROM. We're in healthcare so dropped calls was a bad thing. Anyway, initial impressions are very good for this Radio. In remote areas the signal is stronger and after 2 hours of driving around talking long distance, we didn't lose the call once. Also much better sound quality so far and more range on 3G service. Hope this helps....

(2) Cingular 8525's (1 SuperCID and SIM Unlocked)

ROM: 3.22.200.4

Radio: 1.38.00.11

Due to my flakey USB connections I prefer do all my updates via the MircoSD card. As I now have radio boot 0108 I am pretty sure I can not use this method to update the radio. Is there another way to do this using MircoSD?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
@Wam7: Rename the NBH file to HERMIMG.nbh, put it on a Fat32 formatted MicroSD card and load SSPL-Herm.exe. Upgrade will start from microSD.

It is still a good advice to have Hard-SPL flashed on your phone even with this method.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] crazyut:
POF:

In your infinite wisdom and given the current configuration I have in my signature, would you recommend reflashing the bootloader to the 1.10oli or just running the ROMUpgradeUt.exe for the 1.38.00.11 bootloader?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
Both should be ok, as long as your OS rom has KITL enabled... otherwise flash 1.10.oli just in case something wrong happens during the upgrade you can recover the device.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Wam7:
Muchas gracias. I had come to that conclusion but thanks for confirming it, for me and my fellow MicroSD flashers. ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] hellokittyr:
why do you all want this rom... gps in the hermes is useless as of right now.. correct me if i am wrong.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] boz:
I do not have the radio upgrade for the gps, as the Hermes cannot run gps and we all know that, we are not stupid! I have it for improved signal and connectivity, as improvements should be made as each radio version comes out and it is a matter of finding the best one to suit your needs.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mixmasterollie:
I think he was simply mentioning that there is a non-GPS enabled version of the 1.38 Radio ROM, so why go for this one when GPS has been proven not to work?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mixmaven:
my "seat of the pants" meter likes this radio version as well. I see no reason to have .11 since .10 just came out, edit: so I gave in and changed!

-mix
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] boz:
:)

The answer is quite simple, because at the time of the gps released 1.38 radio, the non gps 1.38 radio was not available and was only released mid afternoon GMT today.

Pof:

Another question I forgot ask is, once you go SPL-1.10.Oli, can you mtty back to SPL-1.01MFG or SPL-1.04?

I ask since I like to change my bootup screen like I change socks. Can one change the bootscreen via mtty with SPL-1.10.Oli?

Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
Yes, but not with mtty and lnb command, only with a NBH package.

Same answer: Yes, but not with mtty and lnb command, only with a NBH package.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Kikouyou:
Pof

Is there then an packaged RUU to go back to MFG 1.01?

Edit: Well I guess we can us the custom RUU package from Oli do do that

Need to check if MFG 1.01 exists in nbh format

Or

Is the soft SSPL MFG1.01 coming along?

I prefer to flash the OS.nb with mtty and MFG1.01 than with RUU as I keep my splash screens and usually do not make much use of the ext_rom package...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
You can load it with "lnbs" as long as your device is SuperCID or using either SSPL or Hard-SPL on it if it's not SuperCID.

BTW, making a NBH of it is just removing the signatures on the nbs file to convert it to nb, and then packing it into a NBH with the 0x200 header for the SPL.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Olipro:
ok, here's the deal.

if you're running 1.10.Oli then you CAN put SPL-1.01MFG onto your phone if you want through the lnbs command... but I really don't recommend it.

the PREFERRED thing to do is download my SPL-1.01 package from the Hard-SPL thread and create an NBH to flash to the device.

to return to 1.10.Oli you'll need to get the original NB of mine, but simply extract it from the NBH in the RUU.

the benefit of using my 1.01 over the regular one is that you can in fact play with my 1.01 on a non SuperCID device.

however, the BEST of all is to simply leave 1.10.Oli flashed to it, and load 1.01 via SSPL from the OS since you can mess around and not need to flash back.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Kikouyou:
Pof, Oli thanks for your answers

I do not feel comfy to play with signatures yet

So I would like to what Oli recommends which is to get 1.10 Oli flashed (no pb) and to use a 1.01 MGF (Oli's is fine) thru SSPL

But I do not know how to do that... (I know I am loosing all your respect by saying that...)

So Oli is providing a SSPL-Olipro-MFG.nb

To get it working with SSPL I need to do:

Launch SSLP

Go in service mode if not already there (without reset)

Connect USB

Launch MTTY

and do

USB>task 32

Level = 0

USB> lnb SSPL-Olipro-MFG.nb 50020000

USB> task 8

I don't think so as I will remove 1.10Oli if I do that as this is assuming I have lnb working with SSPL and I do not think it does as if it did, I could just use it to flash a new OS and would not need the SSPL-Olipro

So I guess I missed something here in the proper usage of SSPL with SSPL-Olipro-MFG.nb

Thanks for your guidance!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
- Flash 1.10.Oli on your phone

- If you want to load OS.nb with 'lnb', start Oli's 1.01MFG from SSPL, to do this create a link with "SSPL-HERM.exe SSPL-Olipro-MFG.nb", when you pass the SPL NB file as a parameter to SSPL it loads this NB file instead of the default 1.09, keep in mind that you'll need to press the bootloader keys (but not reset) to see the SPL you've passed as a parameter.

- If you want to flash a radio (assuming your htc_boot is 108) then just load SSPL's default 1.09 bootloader (or let the modified RUU do it for you using activesync).

Hope it's clear now.

I could've sworn that prior to updating to this radio, my data connection was always on once connected. It doesn't seem to be staying on right now.

Then again, I had to hard reset this morning because somehow in the past day I lost my MMS settings. I upgraded the radio yesterday.

Time to dig through the WiKi. :)

I'm not sure if I'm the only one going through hell with this upgrade. I've started the Radio Upgrade and it stays at zero percent. I've reset both my laptop and TyTn, and I've started again, and it seems to have done it again. I'm going to leave them both for an hour and see how it goes.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Olipro:
install 1.35, then flash 1.38 as usual.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] bernardryan:
Thanx pof. Did that already. Worked well. Also, i'm not sure about this, but is it the Rom's fault or my service providers fault that i can't do video Calls nor send mms.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ach2:
Have you considered that it might be your fault (instead of someone elses). :D

If you've upgraded the radio I assume you saved all your GPRS MMS etc settings from your service provider and re-input them after the upgrade??

I've downloaded it but it's img file.

How do I have to flash it using Odin?

Hi

I've downloaded the file and flashed it (the zip file) by Odin as you said.

Unticked the auto-reboot and after the Odin process was done, I manually turned off my phone and boot into recovery by holding down home, power and volume up bottom.

but the phone after booting automatically goes to download mode.

It's not working.

Please guide me if I did any thing wrong.
[Galaxy Note 3 Neo General] bigbiff:
Use Odin to flash stock recovery then you can boot again. If you can, please boot the bad version of TWRP, then reboot into download mode, reflash stock recovery, then boot android and look for /proc/last_kmsg

I have stock recovery but it is .img file.

How do I have to flash it using Odin?

Do I have to zip it and change its name to "stock recovery. img.Md5.tar"?

Is this the command that I have to run in terminal or that's file or folder?

Please guide me step by step to do my job correctly.

Hi bigbiff

I flashed TWRP test that you have created it again on my N7502.

Unfortunately the 3 way rebooting is not working on my device (from Xposed modules), So, I turned off my device and manually try to boot my device into recovery mode by holding volume up, home and power bottom together.

After booting the phone into recovery, the blue writing appear on top of screen “recovery booting”

After that, the phone quickly and automatically goes to download mode.

There is not any things happening else.

It’s not working.

after say.....

Done

The adb does not report my device.

after several restarting the device, my device does not boot normally and just boot into download mode automatically.

I flashed stock firmware using odin to repair my phone.

So thanks for your try to build a recovery for us.

I have test the second test version of TWRP “2.8.2.0”.

It was same as the pervious test version.

I mean, when I tried to manually boot into recovery, the recovery boot just in less than second, I just can se the blue writing….. “ Recovery booting”

And then immediately and automatically boot into download mode.

After that, I flashed the TWRP ver 2.8.3.0 (I have download it from the link that was given by you), and then try to manually boot into recovery mode.

The recovery mode booted and the following was shown …..

The blue writing…………. “Recovery booting”

The yellow writing ……… “Recovery seendroid”

The red writing ………

After that the phone vibrate two times in 2 seconds and after that automatically booted into android.

I found the file “last_kmsg” and I attach it for you.

Please Guide me if I did any thing wrong or need to do something else.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KomradeNikolai:
I have a Nexus 5 running stock Lollipop (5.0). My phone is rooted and has CWM Recovery installed. I've tried to update OTA to 5.0.1 twice now. Both time, it has downloaded the update and rebooted as usual. Then CWM Recovery prompts me to install the update. After hitting "Yes" it appears to install the update and then informs me that root may have been lost. I've tried saying both "yes" and "no" to fixing that. In both cases, I've retained root, but my phone remains at 5.0 instead of 5.0.1.

From my limited rooting knowledge, I can see flashing the factory image would be the most straightforward way to updating, but obviously that would wipe my phone. Titanium can only back up so much. Plus I want a simpler way to do this in the future. To me, it seems another solution would be to revert to the stock recovery and have that install the update. However, I don't know how to revert to the factory recovery without flashing the factory image. All of that being said, what is the best way to OTA with a stock ROM but a custom recovery?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yaz75:
It's been said about a million times on this forum:

You have to be stock or the OTA won't work. Stock system, stock recovery, stock kernel etc. Extract and flash files from the factory image just don't flash the userdata.img file.

Thanks. I don't spend much time on here and I didn't see a post that gave me something concrete.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KomradeNikolai:
I'm currently downloading the 5.0.1 factory image from Google, but since it's such a large file and my internet is quite slow, it's going to be over an hour yet before its finished. That being said, I downloaded the .zip version of the OTA update as linked on phandroid and attempted to install it with CWM. Dispite the fact that I'm running Lollipop, I got the following error. I've shortened the name of the .zip because its quite long.

I flashed the factory image for Android 5.0 a couple of weeks ago so I don't see any reason why it should see the KRT16M fingerprint. Any ideas?

EDIT: Never mind. Looks like this has the same effect and won't work if I'm not completely stock. I'll just wait for the factory image to download and flash that. Correct me if I'm wrong.
