Confused after reading through all of these pages......What is the process to get the update if you are rooted through toast's method and are running the original recovery. Do I have to flash Damage Control, then update radio and wimax and then all should be well? Or since im running aloyisius ROM I have to wait for him to incorporate it into his ROM? I saw someone asked could these be flashed over any custom rom and didn't see that question answered.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pseudoremora:
If you flash Damage Control's latest ROM (3.2.2 - Patch 1), he's already include the software update (1.47) into it. Then all you have to do is download both radio and wimax update.zip's and flash them via recovery and your system will be 95% up to date.

The last thing you need to do is update the PRL, which can be done by going to:

Menu | System Updates |Update PRL

In regards to flashing the Radio and Wimax on other custom ROM's, it could most likely be done -- but as the OP has stated its best that the ROM you are using has the latest software update (1.47) if you plan on flashing the Radio or Wimax, because apparently if you don't have the latest software update, then Wimax will break.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vinny75:
weird.. using alogcat... and with 4G off... im seeing this about 10 times a second

E/Wimax ( 90): <DC CONNECT> IO error: msg='/127.0.0.1:7771 - Connection refused'
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kykiskly:
Question for all of you.

I am running Senseless EVO

Soft # 1.32.651.6

PRI # 1.34_003

PRL Version 60667

Armon RA R -

Is there an extra step I should know of before flashing these files? I was reading and it seems that I am missing something.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pseudoremora:
What ROM are you running?
[EVO 4G Android Development] swaze:
Ok that helps alot thanks. Last question, if I go back to aloyisius after completing all of the steps above, will wimax break or would I need to stay on damage to keep it all working how its supposed to.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Varo210:
Ok I installed the early version of the rooted OTA update, then flashed the first Wimax update, then updated my PRL. Here's what I've got.

Baseband 1.36.00.04.02

Software 1.47.651.1

PRL 60667

Don't have 4g availible here so don't know if it works or not. But signal strength on 3g is fantastic. And after 4 hours of usage, still at 99% battery. Massive improvement over yesterday, was only getting 12 hours before.

Is anyone else seeing these results, and do I dare upgrade the Radio?
[EVO 4G Android Development] pseudoremora:
I think you should be okay. However, I'm not 100% positive, be sure to do a Nandroid backup before proceeding.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kykiskly:
Will do :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Cordy:
Thanks a lot Calk, I haven't been out yet to test the 4g but just wanted to let you know that after flashing this it reboots the phone to Android but a manual reboot to recovery is needed after it does for it to finish.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kykiskly:
Correct me if I am wrong.

Are this updates based on yesterday released? the 30.1mb?

Is this including the battery life improvement and grounding fix?

--Edit--

After applying both updates, this is how my phone stands.

The soft is 1.32 and I see others with 1.47.. Can anyone clear my thoughts?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jrmithdobbs:
Can someone add this file to the first post please? Works correctly with amonra's recovery with no trickery.

Flash rooted .47, flash radio in OP, reboot, then flash this wiimax update, reboot into android, update PRL, update profile (for good measure) and everything works correctly.

I cleared cache (not data) and dalvik cache but I don't think you should need to.

Baseband: 2.05.00.06.10

Software: 1.47.651.1

PRL: 60667

4G: Working for me in austin.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pseudoremora:
Well this thread only has the Radio and Wimax, so it'll improve those two things. Both of them will help with the battery, but the core software update in somewhere else which you'll need to download -- they fixes the grounding issues, more battery stuff, applications, etc.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ViViDboarder:
Hey, So this is just the radio update from the OTA?

If so, I have some questions...

I am one of the people who ran the Unrevoked update that killed my 4G. I know joshua_ is working on a fix, but I was wondering if this update is run if it would repair the Wimax by overwriting whatever is not working with the latest radio.

Anyone have any thoughts on this? Not sure if it works that way here.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
tisk, tisk...I clearly said these are only radio/wimax roms.

I posted a link to the rooted update if you want .47
[EVO 4G Android Development] pseudoremora:
You need to download the software update. The OP did NOT attach that. He only has the radio and Wimax. Notice how your Baseband Version changed -- but the software did not. You need to find the software update.

The newest Radio and Wimax possibly might be able to fix your issue, however that's unknown, until you can test.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
Try this and report back to me, use a custom recovery to flash.

http://talkevo.com/old_wimax.zip <- This link will be taken down and made into a proper download once it's confirmed to work.

It's from the RUU 1.32.651.6, worst it could do is just not flash for some stupid error I made...best case is it could fix your WiMax.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ViViDboarder:
File downloading... If only I had 4G it'd be going faster! :p

I flash with Clockwork right?

Also, one thing I think I should check... The OTA was pulled because when run twice it bricked the phone... that said... will this brick my phone because I'm running it twice?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vinny75:
Damn, I did the exact same thing and 4G is not working for me in San Antonio.. only difference is I used clockworkmod 1.8.2.2... maybe I'll switch to RA recovery
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
This is not from OTA and all of these are full files, not diff.

They most likely broken from files being patched the same thing twice.

If anyone wants to discuss this live, I installed a chat on TalkEvo.com
[EVO 4G Android Development] rehh:
4g back up and running ..........thanks !!

Lost 4g when I updated my rom from DC 3.2.1 to 3.2.2.1, just ran this update on wimax and radio and now 4g back up.

Damn can't believe I've been able to figure all this stuff out in just one day!........ up until yesterday I had never even heard of rom for a phone !! Never even knew you could mod a phone like this till I started looking around the net for evo apps.

Great stuff guys........
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
You ran the updates I posted?

I just want to ask as many are reporting issues in general with all the new 4G updates.
[EVO 4G Android Development] boogief1:
i have no luck

i hav ethe ota full files u ask for and i have new wimax and and new radio an dnothing it wont work my 4G what do i have to do
[EVO 4G Android Development] rehh:
looks like I spoke too soon.

Yes I ran the wimax and radio update over DC 3.2.2.1, the 4g came on and showed a connection and then dropped after a minute, every time I reboot the phone it does the same thing, comes on for a minute then drops........
[EVO 4G Android Development] RickBaller:
If I'm running the EVOlutionV8 + RevA Froyo ROM from this forum how would I go about updating my radio?

If you can report back on it, that would be great.

A few of us have a live chat going on at TalkEvo.com about trying to fix 4G.
[EVO 4G Android Development] shawnten:
so how do i install these
[EVO 4G Android Development] DraginMagik:
I was running Fresh .3 w/ AmonRA 1.7 ... full root + nand

a friend of mine has a stock evo and praised the latest OTA update. so i grabbed Damaged 3.2.2 (and fresh .53 just in case). i did a 'data wipe/factory reset', cleared cache and dalvik cache. installed Dmgd322 and the updates from http:/ /xdaforums.com/showthread.php? t=713770. 4g still a bit flaky after a couple reboots and reflashing of the wimax and radio using the signed zips from TheMarkness on post #98. i had one or two random reboots. but given the flashing and such, figured it may have been related and didn't really notice the random reboots until trying to using TitaniumBackup to restore the bulk of my apps. i was unable to get more than 40 apps reinstalled due to unrequested reboots.

after several random reboots, i gave up. went into recovery..did a full wipe (data, cache, dalvik)...installed Fresh .53 ...

all is working perfectly.

4g is solid.

battery seems fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
I just updated the WiMax file, it may not have been actually flashing in some recoveries.
[EVO 4G Android Development] runner77:
Is the new link on the OP?
[EVO 4G Android Development] RickBaller:
Has anyone flashed these over a EvoV9 Froyo build successfully? Did you wipe first?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mongoose8p:
yeah I'm not sure if mine is flashing or not as well to be honest.. I'm in clockwork and it does it very quickly but it does say it completed. I'm running damage 3.2.1 because 4G is dead for me on 3.2.2.1
[EVO 4G Android Development] ssgelm:
After flashing I can't install apps from the market - it says I have insufficient space when I have more than enough. Earlier in the thread someone suggested that reapplying the rom (I'm running DC 3.2.2.1 btw) fixes it, but doesn't that remove the wimax update?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kykiskly:
Just got the prompt that there was an update available, the 30.1mb one :D even though I flashed the Wimax and Radio update... good try sprint :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] Cordy:
I had that issue when applying Calkulin's update. It boots the phone instead of booting it back to recovery to clear cache. Reboot the phone into recovery and it'll finish up the process and then the apps will be able to install.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ssgelm:
Thanks. Also, using the wimax_mtd command I see that I have version 4.6.2.2v25641_ of the wimax firmware. Is that what I should have after flashing the latest update?
[EVO 4G Android Development] BunLengthHotDog:
I had the same thing happening, I would lose 3g when I either enabled 4g or wifi and turned either of those back off.

Try disabling Roaming Guard and Play sound when roaming...my 3g comes back now when those 2 are unchecked
[EVO 4G Android Development] Westfire:
I upgraded my radio and wimax and I used to get decent 4G signal and now it hardly picks it up if at all. I updated profile and PRL to no avail. I might try to reflash it. Everything else works perfectly though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MikeBrWade:
Same here, no 4G no bueno, everything else is great though GJ. I am going back to my BB3 for now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
Yes, and I'm assuming your 4G still works?

We are having many skeptics and people with issues.

From what it sounds like, the unrevoked update overwrote the MAC address for WiMax.

Joshua from unrevoked is looking for a solution. The MAC is written on the back of the phone, but a key for the MAC is not. The key is needed and a solution is being looked into.

If anyone wants to help we're getting a number of people in the live chat.

IF ANYONE HAS INFO ON HOW TO RE-KEY THE PHONES, CONTACT JOSHUA AT UNREVOKED!
[EVO 4G Android Development] skunkiechris:
Yeah, I've used the original file and Calkulin's. The original goes right through and doesn't appear to do anything, Calkulin's looks like it's writing, prompts to reboot to finish install, etc. However, I'm still seeing:

Check Firwmare Version (4.6.2.2_v24722) ........ 4.6.2.2_v24722

:confused: No 4G here anyway, but still it's the point lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mpa4712:
disregard for now..
[EVO 4G Android Development] afitchguy07:
i had 4g coverage fine before, now i flash wimax update and no more 4g... MAYBE one bar from time to time. :mad:
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
Yeah, update does restrict to only "authorized" 4g access points.

Anyways, I updated the 4g update, it seems it wasnt very reliable for flashing.

Now it WILL flash.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jedil1c1ous:
Just flashed the radio and wimax on top of Damage Control 3.2.2.1 with no issues. Baseband shows correct version, but unable to test WiMax as it's not in my area yet.

Flashed radio first... reboot... flashed wimax... reboot.

[EVO 4G Android Development] vWvSTATICvWv:

It flashed fine with Amon using ChrisDos' signed file. Even verified that it finally updated wimax using the wimax_mtd command (4.6.2.2v25641) ... but it doesnt solve my scanning issue... 4G turns on and sets at scanning. Radio (2.05.00.06.10) is the latest from this thread and the im using 1.47.651.1 rooted (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=712695) so it should be damn close to the stock OTA update that pushed... but nada... blah.. sucks..

[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
I've removed the link to Calkulin's update.

It seems he may have changed his files and some are reporting 4G broken.

This is a serious issues, I recommend you DO NOT flash any .47 files until it is confirmed they do not change the MAC address.

I'm going to keep the link omitted until I can confirm which of his updates are safe.

If you want them you can get them here (take caution).
[EVO 4G Android Development] sk63:
check out the damage thread, they've found a fix.

You need to rename or remove the file *.tree.xml from data/misc/wimax

Might need to apply the fresh 4g fix as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nbenmoshe:
Just updated the phone with the .47 rooted version. followed by the new radio and the winmax, no problems there everything is working on the phone. unable to verify 4G. As someone that rooted the phone via toast for the first time i didn't have much problems though I lack some base knowledge. When I went to your live chat site and tried to verify the winmax version I get

Su: permission denied

$

I think I saw /read somewhere how to change it back or 0btain premission/signature. can you help. the only thing that didn't update on the phone is the PRI still 1.34_003

Still have Nand unlocked and superuser permissions and recovery. please help

what is the PRI for and how do you update it.

thanks.

1.47.651.1 rooted stock
[EVO 4G Android Development] skunkiechris:
1) Look at your phone screen when you do 'su' - you should get a permission request. Grant it and you'll be good.

2) PRI is primary roaming indicator, nobody knows how to update it yet outside the official updates.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
It probably only fixes those that actually have a valid MAC to begin with, just for clarification - if you have a bad MAC from unrevoked or Calkulin's it probably wont do you any good.

I have yet to hear of ANYONE who actually got 4g working after flashing the bad MAC. There's a thread about it, but the title is deceiving as changing the MAC doesn't fix the bad key that was also flashed.

You either don't have a usermode root (the superuser.apk) or you haven't allowed root access to su in adb. (meaning check the phones screen to hit allow)
[EVO 4G Android Development] nbenmoshe:
worked like a charm I do have the latest wimax. I guess by the time I looked at the phone the screen was off, hence that is why I didn't see the request. As always you came to the rescue. again thanks for all your hard work.

[EVO 4G Android Development] spinkteck:
how do you know if your wimax is working? i have no clue if it works or not because in my area we have no 4g connection yet.

I've typed " wimax_mtd " in the terminal but i get all these info but i dont know what to look for to know if it is working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vWvSTATICvWv:
Stupid question, but if you don't have 4G, wouldn't it just keep scanning anyway?

I flashed this few times with once going from complete scratch and when i do testing speeds on speedtest app this radio has much lower speeds then stock evo 1.39 radio. Different servers and also browsing is slow. In fact i had to go back to that one. It won't perform in any rom. I wish it could work better but it definitly fails on my evo. Running stock 1.39. Any idea why?
[EVO 4G Android Development] utnick:
has this file been changed since it first went up? i have used it before and my 4g worked well after the data/misc/wimax fix, but now after reverting back using a pc36img and then installing the same ROM as before i can't get the 4g to start working after updating to this radio again? it's peculiar.

(and if you're wondering why i reverted -- something was killing my battery and i couldn't find the culprit so i reinstalled everything from scratch. battery life is fine now.)

Yup same here, WiMax flash says no radio.diff found.

However Radio flashed fine, Baseband was 1.39.00.05.31 now it's 2.05.00.06.10 but PRI/PRL not changed.

P.S. I'm on DamageControl 2.2.2 patch #1.

Baseband Requirement

Can I just put these on my root of SD card and flash in ROM manager to get them to load up?
[EVO 4G Android Development] PlankLongBeard:
Thanks So much for this "FULL IMG" of everything..

I wanted to ask the common and simple..

Of course once you flash this.. Radio/WImAXX.. it is only a one time event correct? As it has always been.. Then we could continue using the custom roms from Fresh, Bugless, Joey and etc.. Flashing and re-flashing as they come.. We dont have to do this again every update.. Much like the N1 Right..?

Thanks..
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
None of this matters, as long as you have the latest .47 system files everything should work 100%.

Fresh 0.5.3 is based on .32, this means WiMax WILL break if you flash the WiMax without updating to .47; updating to .47 will most likely revert most of the customizations on Fresh with a chance of breaking it.

Radio may work, I still don't have any reports on it though.

All I can say is .47 is well worth it, I've easily gotten double battery life. (and this is coming from DamageControl 3.2.1)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
Yes, these are regular images, unless you have an odd ROM (or stock) that writes the radio...it will stay.

Like I also said, I took out the recovery (and boot for that matter). ~ Plain and simple, do what you want them to do without any extras.

These are exactly what I wanted for myself and since they didn't exist I made them. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neotelos_com:
Yes, you can. I actually used Clockwork's recovery myself.
[EVO 4G Android Development] teddykgb715:

Sorry for all the questions...I am relatively new to all of this and although I have experience with rooting and roms (and all that goes into that), I have left the radio alone and messing with it still kind of freaks me out.
