I had heaps of problems before, I just reflashed the original ROM and all was working well again, The radio version that come with the ROM is old.

Then I followed this guide

And updated to Hard-SPL v7 fine

Then I got to the Radio update step, I tried the radio it said (1.43)

It got to 7% and failed,

Then I tried 1.48 and 1.50

The same happened.

Why can't I update my Radio? Is there a trick or something you guys use?/

I tried it the SD card way and Its the Same.

Thanks.

Can a pro please explain how and what they used to get their PDA from its original state to having a cooked OS and a working Radio?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] todd_jg:
That guide works 99% of the time. There is really only a small handful of possibilities:

1) You did not follow the guide exactly

2) The file you got for radio is corrupt (unlikely since you tried multiple files)

3) Your connection is unstable (unlikely since SD card method fails)

Hmm... Try the bricked hermes thread - is a sticky in the Hermes forum. It is long, but you may find something. It seems to me that the 7% hang on radio happens from time to time - but I am not sure if there is a standard fix. Maybe try the google search in my signature - use terms like hermes radio 7% brick or something. I am sure it is fixable. You got HardSPL to load properly, right? So your bootloader screen shows SPL version 2.10 Olipro or something like that?

The interesting thing is that you got it back to oringinal ROM & radio... You are using the latest Custom_RUU to do all the work. Makes me wonder if it is a CID problem, although I don't think you would even get to 7%, you would just get an immediate failure.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Madcap180:
You could use MTTY to restore the radio back to factory I beleive..

You might also need to make sure your device is CID unlocked..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Korpse:
Thanks for the help guys :D

I updated to HardSPL-v7 and that went fine, it read IPL-1.04 and SPL-2.10.Olipro afterwards,

Then I attempted to update the radio and it failed, I followed the guide exactly.

Then I tried the SD way, the same.

Now. I'm doing the SIM and CID unlocker v3a by pof (Did it the SD way) and the IPL update completed with OK, The SPL went OK to, but the radio failed so i did a reset now I going to run that unlocker program and see if it succeeds,

then I will run the Factory ROM and restore it to how it was, then I will update to the Black Satin Cooked ROM, and I'll just have to stick with the old radio until I find a new method that might work.

Whats the go with the downgrading to bootloader 1.04 like it says in the wiki everywhere, what will that do that will help the radio update that the newest bootloader can't?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] todd_jg:
If the CID unlocker runs fine, try the radio again. There is no reason that a new one would not work, if the older one works routinely.

The downgrade stuff is for people who want to return it to it's near-exact shipped condition - usually for warranty or sale purposes.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Korpse:
So, I ran the original factory rom

I did it via the SD card, as it is a lot more useful this way.

Heres the Results:

please mind the ranting....

WTF WHY THE F##K DID IT STOP AT GSM AGAIN FFS!

you can obviosly see why I'm pissed, its acting up like the radio is a BANK VAULT with 8" STEEL. I just can't flash it at all, but for some reason I have ran this ROM a while back and had no problems, so there must be a way :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] todd_jg:
Did you run the CID unlocker successfully?

Have you used MTTY before? You may want to do that.

Had you successfully flashed back to the old ROM before?

It seems like it - so the SAME ROM will not work now either?:confused:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Korpse:
I ran the newest dopod wm6 rom which was only the OS, some splash screens and the EXTROM, and to my amazement the GSM worked, the Radio and IMEI reappeared in the device information, but after a soft reset its gone again. it seems the GSM is still there but I can't touch it at all.

When I did the SIM and SuperCID unlocker it gets to the hacked GSM and fails,

but after a reset, I ran the tool and ticked bot options. then it said Success!

How can I check to see if it worked.

My bootloader is 1.40.Olipro (the one the SIM and CID unlocker downgraded me to)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] todd_jg:
You can use mtty to see if the supercid process worked. The Hermes Wiki - in particular THIS SECION will be very helpful.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Korpse:
Yep its definitely SuperCID,

still reading through pages looking :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Korpse:
I spent HOURS messing with **** on my phone, downgrading bootloaders, trying different ROMs, Stuffing with every command I could find for MTTY and anything else imaginable.

I got the radio to update, but its still stuffed
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Korpse:
I added this to the Wiki because it works:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Korpse:
I did what the last post said, had it booted with my radio working, and then I ran the RUU for the GSM 1.50.00.00 radio upgrade. and THIS IS UNBELIEVEABLE, AFTER ALL THAT STUPID STALLING ON 0 and 7%, it UPGRADED!!!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] hanissusa:
I have exactly teh same situation here.... my device is SUPERCID and its stalls on GSM upgrade every time
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] hanissusa:
I already tried like 10 different versions of radio bootloader updates and none of them worked for me !!! It always stalls at 11% or 7%

MMTY output

SPL CRC checksum = 0x921BC30

CE CRC checksum = 0x26BC961C

0x0
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] hanissusa:
Can somebody help ? I am sure there is a way to flash the new radio version !!!

There is a defenitite fault in RADIO ROM and I wish I should have never tried to upgrade to 1.50.0 . Last coule of days have been a nightmare for me. I read the entire foruma and stil could not find a solution to my problem.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] a-h-t1:
sure i've done it too many times, atleast after the 7nth time i've stopped counting but still i have no GSM .

any help is much appreciated folks .

WBR
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] a-h-t1:
Also whatever ROM i install after it starts for the first time it starts to customize and install oem apps it stops while customizing at the theme part i don't know why but it did .
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Korpse:
do a "checkimage" in MTTY, if your radio is corrupt then that method wont work, also about the updates stalling, do task 28 in MTTY, then reboot

So is the radio corrupt ?

What is task 28 ? WIKI SAYS - Format DOC - What is DOC ? Is it related to RADIO ROM ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mbataka:
Is your radio still good?

Hey buddy its nice to hear good news. Myne is exactly same situation. But with exception. When i got no gsm , soft reset or remove battery give a few minut then i will get GSM back. And in the system radio will work few minuts and goes off. Off means its not able to receive call or call outside but GSM bar have a full. BUT sms can be sent and receive. WHAT THIS MEAN???. So downgrading or upgrading radio's not helps. Sometimes its stalls on 7%,12%,14% even 94% . On mtty i doesnt have any badblocks. And i wish you better luck with your hermes. actually i shifted to the Artemis. But still have some hope to recover my hermes. if not its gonna be test machine. Hehe. Is there any good tutorial to flash radio trough mtty, coz when i try always getting some error about certification or incompatible issue's
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Korpse:
yep your radio has bitten the dust, except mine was working 3 days ago and It says that to me so run the command 'shutup' at the prompt and if it says command error smash it for back answering you, na ive got no idea, sorry mate

oh and 'task 28' wipes out all your storage drives that can stop it booting
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Korpse:
Thanks! but I stuffed it up a few days ago and now I can't even load windows, so its totally unusable
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] hanissusa:
oh and 'task 28' wipes out all your storage drives that can stop it booting

- would it help with radio ? does iut wipe out radio rom ?>
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] hanissusa:
task 28 did not help..... Also, I do not think my phone has KITL - tried pressing coom manager+power an reset and nothing happens - phone reboots as usual

ANY OTHER SUGGETSIONS ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] hanissusa:
sorry duplicate message
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] hanissusa:
can somebody post like a last resort way of flashing your radio ? thats so ridiculous.... I fell like i know so much about mtty , all versions of SPL, ROMs and other crap but I still can't flash this damn radio !!! its easy for you to say go read other threads, but what should you do after you read several hundred of them and stil can't figure out how to fix your Hermes ? and worst of all its T-MOBILE MDA so i can't really take it to HTC repair center or can I ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Korpse:
You should forget this topic, My radio worked fine for a few days after I got it to flash, then It said No GSM again, and now my hermes is unusable
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] hanissusa:
My recommedation to people wnating to upgrade their radio/ROM - dnt do it !!! People on this forum are not really helping once you have a "non standard" problem ... and thats what most of them are !!! I read the forum for about 2 weeks, tried 200 methdos to "unbrick" my HERMES and nothing worked !!! Do not upgrade or you will waste 300-400$ of your money
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] austinsnyc:
WOW just cuz you screwed up huh.... I have flashed my hermes over 100 times with cooked roms and offical roms and not once have i bricked it. Sometimes as we all know electronic **** breaks and things get corrupt which is why there is a thing called a warrenty! if you have hard SPL installed and you dont have radio bootloader 108 (if i rember right) your good to go. have any of you checked what radio bootloader you have? there was an issue a while back with a bootloader that would brick your phone of you tried to upgrade the radio and i think the problam was never fixed it was 108 or 109 cant remeber sorry!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] hanissusa:
can you tell me how to find out wich radio bootloader version I have ? Is it possible to reflash it ?

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zroice:
Hey guys,

I never thought it could happen but I got my hands on an unboxed Fire TV from November 2014. (as the seller said it was preordered.. so it should have a very old firmware on it).

I'd like to root, bootloader unlock and put custom recovery on it, anything I have to avoid except not allowing the thing to OTA update?

And how can I get root the fastest and the most risk-free way? Block ota through router and then put towelroot on it asap I guess?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cd2022:
Check out the aftvnews.com web site, it has all answers to your questions.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AFTVnews.com:
No need to rush anything if you block updates on your router. Just follow AFTVnews.com/start and it will guide you through the whole process. The most important thing is getting through the initial setup without updating. The guide will walk you through that as well. Just select "no" when asked if you've completed the initial setup.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] getmoneygreen:
is there a root method for the fire tv 2 gaming edition and if their isn't what will be the best steps to take to prevent unrootabilty
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AFTVnews.com:
No, there is no root method for the Fire TV 2. (The gaming edition is exactly the same as the non-gaming edition.)

Staying on as old of a software version as you can is your best bet to ensure compatibility with a possible future rooting method. However, the Fire TV 2 has a lot of bugs, so you'll probably want to take the next 1 or 2 updates. See here for how to block updates.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zroice:
somehow all my routers (and I tested a couple) dont really block the urls given on atvnews.com.

At least I can still ping them .. not sure if they block the updates though.

So how can I prevent updating when not sure if the urls are actually blocked? I read somewhere that I would have to pull the network cable at certain points and reinsert it later, can someone point me to where I find the info about that method? Thanks
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AFTVnews.com:
Try downloading this file with your PC: http://amzdigitaldownloads.edgesuit...ueller-ota-51.1.6.3_user_516012020-signed.bin

If you can't download it, then your blocks are working.

Your other best option to block updates is to use OpenDNS.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zroice:
blocking worked correctly but unfortunately this box I got already has the 51.1.4.0 Software Version installed- so no rooted box for me I guess.. =(

Thanks anyway for your guys' help
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I_did_it_just_tmrrow:
Where you from?

51.1.4.0 ist just a good, but last good fw, to unlock bootloader when you root.

Source

You need a eMMc-Adapter or a person who had one. To root your device.

If you lived in germany I can help you.

A good guide is this one here -> http://solderwiresandplastic.com/

Or read this book here :P: [GUIDE] Hardware root via emmc chip (requires soldering!)

But pls keep your device on this fw!

[Dell Venue] Wildwoodashes:
I've tried to search without much success for this issue, so I thought I'd just go ahead and ask. I just picked up a Dell Venue 8 7000 and have noticed some odd behavior with WiFi. It appears that when ever I hold the device by the lower left corner (in portait with the power switch on the upper left) the WiFi connection drops out and either I lose network access or see a drastic drop in signal quality. It's easily repeatable and as soon as I hold the device by the lower left corner the wifi drops out/degrades significantly. Is this something the Dell Venue 8 7000s are just prone to, or did I likely get a bum device? Being as that I can recreate it by simply holding the device, I don't believe this is a software based issue, so what I'm wondering if anyone else is seeing this or whether I should attempt to get a replacement from Dell.
[Dell Venue] Wildwoodashes:
Should I take the lack of responses as a confirmation that not everyone else is having these issues with their venue 8 7000?
[Dell Venue] wayne710:
I have used the Venue 7480 for close to a year and have not experienced that problem. However, I do believe shortly after I purchased mine i recall someone else had a post concerning the same problem you are experiencing.
[Dell Venue] exciter0:
I have the same exact issue with mine, bought new. I was going to try a case to see if that prevent the drop. The weird thing is the WiFi indicator shows that it still has signal but the connection is totally dropped.
[Dell Venue] 3dupunk:
It's a known issue, the Wi-Fi antenna is in the chin. Wi-Fi is really disappointing, but other than that I love my 7840.
[Dell Venue] Kytrix:
Same here,

sometime the wifi is connected but not working .. or became without signal.

To solve I need to activate/disactivate it.

I will try to reflash the last radio image just to check.
[Dell Venue] Wildwoodashes:
Thanks for the responses.

Sadly, I ended up returning it. I tried to convince my self I could deal with it but I just couldn't. Other than the darn Wi-Fi issue, it seemed like a pretty good tablet.

I guess I'll have to keep looking.

Thanks!

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garyd9:
Please jump to the last post in this thread for the most current information. These kernels are no longer needed.

Old Post:

Q&A thread for the stock kernels I posted here:

http://xdaforums.com/note5/development/stock-kernels-selinux-enforcing-rootable-t3222333

If you have a device with an unlocked bootloader and would like me to make the ramdisk changes, you need to obtain the factory ODIN firmware. Then, upload the boot.img from within it, and provide that to me, along with the full firmware string (settings -> about -> software info -> build number) If you got the firmware image from sammobile, you can just give me the full filename of the image archive (the first part of that is the firmware string I want.)

I'm only going to keep posted a single kernel for each device. So, one n920i, one n920c, etc. I'll try to keep them up to the newest version, but the kernel images tend to be compatible across minor firmware updates for a given device.

Q: Where is the source?

A: Wherever samsung posted it. These kernels aren't recompiled.. only the ramdisk is modified. The modifications are documented in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/note5/orig-development/kernel-discussion-root-recompiling-t3219990

Q: Will you make the kernels auto-root my device?

A: No. The goal of this was to retain boot images as close as possible to stock while allowing a user to choose to install a functioning SuperSU and/or modify the system partition without headaches such as boot loops.

Q: Which version of SuperSU was this tested with?

A: Beta 2.51

Q: What about xposed?

A: If xposed can work with SEAndroid in enforcing mode and/or makes the proper policy requests from SuperSU, then it should work. However, that's outside the scope of this (or any other) kernel.

Q: Will this allow me to root an AT&T or Verizon device?

A: Not unless the bootloader for those devices becomes unlocked or another way is found to flash a boot image safely.

Q: Why are you so user unfriendly?

A: This is a developer forum.
