Hello guys, Looking to install a new radio but would like to back up my current stock Radio in case i ever decide to revert to stock again anywhere i could find out how to do this? (or could you tell me how) Im using a tmob g2 i have perm root s-off with gfree and all that good stuff with eng hboot also which one of these radios posted here are the newest or is the other thread ive read about the one with newest radio? well any response will be appreciated thanks for reading my wall of text

Also if for some reason flashing my radio goes to **** and it fails is it possible to bring it back from the brick a bad flash would cause?

i am capable of using fastboot and ADB i may not be a expert but I'm not afraid of using ADB commands on my machine in the slightest
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
See if your current radio is in THIS thread. Before I updated mine, I found my current one there and downloaded it first. This way I had my old one to go back to.

Remember when flashing you do it via the bootloader, not CWM, and you must rename it to PC10IMG.zip first. Its helpful to just make a copy of the one u wanna use and rename it, that way you dont have 2 or 3 or 10 PC10IMG.zip files in a folder and you don't know which is which.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baphometa:
Thanks I took the plunge worked out great didn't see my radio in that thread but said **** it and did it anyways glad I did the radio I grabed has much better 4g signal in my house now

Thanks again for the response I appreciate it

When I get to my pc I will be hitting the thanks button :)

[Legend General] black beard:
Okay brief background:

Originally stock VFAU supplied Legend, updated to the stock Froyo. Rooted by (roughly) following the steps outlined in the How to root HBoot 1.01 thread and am now happily able to flash roms using ClockworkMod 3.0.0.6 "fake flash" update.zip

Was keen to try out CM7RC2 on this phone so I have downloaded the update and Gapps .zips from the Cyanogenmod wiki page.

Tried multiple times now to flash the CM7 update and the relevent Gapps, always formatting user data / cache / dalvik before hand. After the process, I am always able to boot into CM7 on the device, but it appears the Gapps update hasn't been applied properly / at all. For example - on initial boot, I don't get the google android setup wizard, so no way to link the phone to my gmail account. Gmail app isn't installed, and when I try to launch Market it just goes to a white screen for a second, and then back to the launcher.

I'm wondering if this is related to the fact that the phone is on HBOOT 1.01, and S-ON? or is there another explaination? eg, a specific kernel, or radio that I should be flashing before I try to flash CM7 (nothing is mentioned in the install guide over at CM wiki).

Thanks in advance.
[Legend General] karlanal:
are you shure ou downloaded the right gapps

the one touse is "gapps-mdpi-20101020-signed"
[Legend General] black beard:
Hey mate, thanks for the quick reply! Just to clarify - are you sure this is the right version of Gapps for CM7 on the Legend?? Looking here under the "Google Apps Version" section it appears that the correct version for all devices running CM7 should be Gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip and that gapps-mdpi is for CM6??

I tried your suggestion nontheless, and with that version of Gapps flashed - I'm now getting a boot-loop of the cyanogen boot animation
[Legend General] EpicSauce:
I'm on HBOOT 1.01 (Vodafone Legend) and CM7 was the first I tried, though it was back around the nightly build 31. I didn't have any issues and CM7 started up straight away. I realised I was missing all the Google stuff so did a separate flash, maybe you could try this. I'm yet to try the RC version hopefully no issues here...
[Legend General] black beard:
I have tried flashing the gapps package as a separate flash (after the intial flash to CM7, booting into CM7, then reboot into recovery to flash Gapps), and the result has been the same as when I flash them together.

I had wondered about trying a nightly, but being new to CM roms please forgive my next question. To flash a nightly, do I first have to flash CM7 RC2, then flash the nightly, or can you just flash the nightly by itself, then Gapps over the top??

I'm definitely willing to give it a try at this stage.
[Legend General] EpicSauce:
Flashing the nightly won't need a prior RC2 flash, its a self contained package so you shouldn't have any problems. Hopefully the Gapps flash works this time. :rolleyes:
[Legend General] karlanal:
yes i was wrong, gave you the wrong gapps suggestion

i was allways using "gapps-gb-20110120-signed" and all was working great
[Legend General] black beard:
Well tried flashing the latest nightly last night, full wipe, then flash, then reboot, then reboot into recovery and flash the Gapps and it worked!! Don't really understand why something like that wouldn't work with the RC :confused:

Thats cool mate - made me recheck myself anyway ;)

well, if you read carefully, there's a woman that said the iPad 2 can be put in her pocket lol

can't imagine what kind of pocket she had

a photographer dude that use its camera for actually taking pictures, and actually prefer using iPad instead of his cam coz iPad have a longer battery life and he doesnt have enough money to buy extra batteries for his camera (wonder how much he got his iPad)

i would die of laughter if i hired a photographer and they came through with their ipad 2..
[Galaxy Tab General] brilldoctor:
Just reading the comment about it being lightweight - from my use of the old ipad in the store afyer a while it began to get quite heavy (thats partly why i got the tab) i doubt with the ipad 2 apple have made it dramaricaly lighter (doubt it). either that or i have feeble arms (not the case)

and re it being small - i doubt it will fit in a pocket unlike the tab (thats what samsung claim and it will fit in my jenes pocket)

and re it being fast? Its 1.8ghz in total whilst the xoom is 2ghz so the xooms faster.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jbuggydroid:
I actually have this game working on my nook. I am running the latest cm nightly. I didn't install from market tho. What I did was restored my backups from my phone onto the nook so I could install all my apps and data to my nook. NFS even runs in full screen once I disabled compatibility. That is all I did to get it working.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Paul22000:
What phone and version of NFS: Shift do you have?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jbuggydroid:
Version 1.0.06 and I have the epic 4g
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Paul22000:
Interesting. I went to re-download the latest version on my Nexus One and I can't find it in the Market. So I go to the Market webpage and get this:

(Notice the blue button says PURCHASED, but I can't install, even on my phone. And the mouseover says not available on my carrier. WTF??)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] britoso:
Try getting the apk from your nexus after updating to the latest version, install via adb/other. The nook is probably missing a feature the game apk says it needs.

Good to know CM7 DSP is coming along, getting kinda tired of nookie froyo reboots/shutdowns and the wifi bug.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Paul22000:
Unfortunately, it doesn't show up in the Market on my phone, nor does it work from the market webpage (see screenshot above). What the heck :(

I really wish Google didn't "hide" apps that they didn't think we could run. Or at least give an option to let us see all the apps.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] swaaye:
there is some controversy going on with this game. I have been trying to find it too. I found a forum thread elsewhere which said that it was recently pulled from the market due to some squabbling between the companies that I don't understand.

I'm running CM7 right now with Launcher Pro. Yesterday I was using ADW. Tomorrow I'll be cursing Launcher Pro and using ADW again. Vice versa the day after that. And I'm sure at some point this weekend I'll flash back to stock/Sense and talk about how it's more stable, even though it's slower, etc., but then eventually I'll miss the speed of CM7. Back and forth... back and forth...

...anyone else share my frustration? :D

I do have a problem as well!

I am currently in a mega-slump... I can not find a "look" that I'm happy with on my phone =( I can't find icons, walls or docks that satisfy me!

I am pretty settled on CM7 tho.. have been a CM guy for a long time.. even tho I did mess around with Myn a touch.

I do hear a lot about Mikfroyo .. if CM battery life doesn't improve for me, I may give his rom a shot. I will be a total nUb again tho, Sense is strange to me now.

[EVO 4G General] mlin:
I can relate, though lately I have been completely content. My current setup is CM7 + LauncherPro. Yesterday I flashed MikZ and MIUI, but neither stayed on my phone for longer than 2 hours. There are just too many things about CM that I like that neither of those two ROMs, nor any other ROM can offer. This doesn't totally surprising because last time I settled down on a ROM was with CM 6.1.2 before I got bored and bounced around to MIUI, MikFroyo, and various others for a few of months.

BTW, if you are finding LP to lack in performance on CM7, try disabling elastic scrolling. The difference I noticed after doing this was like night and day and now LP is as smooth as ADW.

Whoa that's pretty damn sexy dude I like that alot. Yeah I'm running cm7 #17 also. But those dock icons rock!!!
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:

I know this isn't the theme section.

But I'm afraid you're going to have to provide us with a link to those icons. I know it's harsh.. but it has to be done.
[EVO 4G General] Ryjabo:
I made them from scratch (the phone is a windows wingdings font thing, though).

Attached .zip file has the separate icon images and the docks. I'm actually using the pre-made dock (with blank icons in place) because if I add the icons on separately (Launcher Pro) they're too small.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:

[EVO 4G General] Ryjabo:
No Sense UI ROM (even Stock) has EVER been as smooth as CM7 with ADW or LP. I'm not going to install a Sense UI ROM and then put ADW or LP on it... if you do that what's the point of having Sense?

I really want to love Sense UI, and I like the concept... but they just need to make it as snappy as CM7 with LP+ or ADW and I'm sold.
