update radio on G4 - G4

how do I update my radio on the g4? I downloaded the tombile 2.19.11 radio but it looks just like any other rom and leaves my phone in bootloader mode.

When you run the RUU for the radio rom, it leaves you in bootloader mode? Strange... You should not have a problem upgrading the radio since the radio is not protected by DOC write protection...
Flash back to your carriers latest rom to fix the stuck in bootloader problem first and then try using the upgrade I attached below. They are the exact same files I used to upgrade the radio on my G4 before I got a handset exchange and ended up with a G3.
Just take the nk.nbf file and put it in the ruu folder and run once you have the latest version of your carriers rom re-installed.

That did the trick, thanks!
I'm guessing the bootloader I was using before was the issue as it would say error and leave my phone in bootloader mode, but once I would reset it my normal OS would display.

Unable to upgrade radio rom

Hi,
I am a SoftBank X01HT user. Recently a rom update was released and I applied it.
ftp://210.136.175.150/F1_RUU/RUU_X01HT_1.33.761.4_1.14.00.10.exe
After update the bootloader version changed to 1.09, so I downgraded the bootloader to 1.04 and it seems to be successful (I confirmed it in bootloader mode screen). Then I installed the DoCoMo version shipped rom of following versions.
ROM Version: 1.23.731.2
Radio Version: 1.06.00.10
Bootloader: 1.04
Language: JPN (Japanese)
CID: DOCOM801
The installation finished successfully, but the radio version is 1.14!!
ROM Version:1.23.731.2
Radio Version:1.14.00.10
I tried to upgrade radio to 1.20 but in vain. I ran MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe and it seemed to work correctly till 99% (however it shows ERROR 114 finally).
After soft reset, I found that the radio version was still 1.14.00.10.
What's the matter? Anyone can help please?
Best regards,

In addition I tried this rom with bootloader 1.09 and radio 1.18.00.10.
ftp://xda:[email protected][1].35.255.2_1.35.255.102_1.08.00.10_SHIP.EXE
The radio rom was not upgraded to 1.18, it remains 1.14.
very weird... can you attach a usb-monitor capture when trying to flash another rom? see the wiki (upgrading problems) for instructions on how to use usb-monitor.
pof, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1068511&postcount=35
might be due to the new SoftBank ROM sold since December?
Even they http://www.imei-check.co.uk/m3100unlock.php couldn't do it:
The Unlocker it will NOT WORK with Japanase Softbank devices with SPL1.09 and radio 1.14.00.10 sold after 1st December 2006. To check your spl just put the phone in bootloader :hold the [OK] button (from the left side of the phone where the volume button is) and the [power on] button and in same time press the [reset] hole (near to the charger connector -- use stylus to press it!) and you can see IPL and SPL
Radio version can be checked from Start->Settings->System->Device Information:Radio Version.
If you buy the unlocker and claim that your phone is a 1.09 we will NOT refund you. We don't know when we will release a new update or IF we will release one!!!

Yes, I think the new softbank device has the radio area "read only" somehow, that makes impossible to patch the radio in order to SIM/CID unlock. However I would like to see a USB Monitor capture of the process when trying to flash a radio rom on it, to see exactly what the bootloader returns. If anyone can attach it, it would be great

Would be an explaination but uedam said he is stuck on 1.14.0.1 since he installed the new X01HT ROM. This implies he had another version before - so it seems that the read only effect isn't caused by the hardware but by the ROM and can't be removed by flashing another ROM (at the moment).
Perhaps there is a hidden command executed when the ROM is flashed. Something that write-protects a range in memory. But I have no explaination why the process runs until 99%.
Someone has to log the USB traffic when flashing the new ROM.
By the way: I'm not willing to test this on my own device

pof,
I installed usbmon and tried radio rom 1.20 upgrade again (it also failed...)
Here is the log files exported from usbmon. I hope it will help to solve the problem.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Hermes/Tools_and_Programs/usbmonlog.zip
Sorry, the file was too large to attach to this post.
p.s. If you need further information, please let me know.
Thanks uedam, the process seems to be the same like in every other device. The only "minor" strange thing is that when flashing a 0x10000 byte block at address 0x6d0000 you get a failure the first time, then the RUU does an 'rerase' of this memory portion, tries again and gets a success, and follows with the radio flashing process. But I think this has nothing to do with the problem we're facing here.

Yes, before upgrade I unlocked my X01HT and used with DoCoMo rom. The radio version was 1.06.00.10.
I uploaded the USB traffic log and please view the file. Does the same thing occur when writing another rom? or this is the first case?

Hmmm, would it make sense to have him log the full-upgrade process - presumably the "locking" happened when he did the RUU_X01HT_1.33.761.4_1.14.00.10.exe
and hopefully it would happen even if Radio 1.14 were already on the system when he re-did the full upgrade.....

I did full rom upgrade again and got log to the file.

It's beyond my comprehension.
p.s. It's very large (about 400MB text file, the zip is about 120MB)
Hey uedam, nice work dude!
I've had a quick look and seems a normal upgrade to me, I see nothing related to the write-locking of the radio, but will look at it more deeply later, in case I skipped something important.
However I extracted GSM.nb from softbank 1.33.761.4 ROM and GSM.nb from HTC 1.18.416.1ROM which both should be radio 1.14.00.10 but the files are different, so I guess the locking is done in the radio itself (??).

pof, it sounds quite interesting. Softbank built the special version of 1.14.00.10 radio?
So, if possible, we cook new rom which includes radio rom same as HTC 1.18.416.1 rom then the person who has 1st version of X01HT can upgrade it safely?

If it is impossible, the person who has contract with softbank will have much trouble. Because they have to upgrade their devices till 1st of April in order to use internet connection. Softbank announced that we would not be able to connect to the net without upgrading to new rom.

Where is this announced? My understanding is that it is not possible to use "Direct Internet" if you don't have the latest ROM but you can still access the internet via normal packet communication - it's more expensive though.

Imei-Check has cracked post December Phones

Ohh yeah baby,
It's been done. They havn't said it has been done, but I assume that it has since I have checked their sice a couple times a week for the past couple of months just waiting for something to be said. They have removed the message about Softbank phones being unable to unlock. So I "ASSSUME" that you can now fully crack your phone with Softbank v1.09. Also for the simle fact that it is version 4 http://www.imei-check.co.uk/M3100v4Unlock.zip of their software instead of version 3. So, now we can crack, our X01HTs, we can downgrade to 1.04, flash with a English rom, then downgrade again to 1.01 and then flash with our custom splash screens.

Interesting! Anyone tried it? Are you x01ht post december 2nd, able to flash another radio after unlocking?
Success!!
I tried as soon as I saw this post, I had previously bought the IMEI thingy (technically speaking) and realized that my phone was a post Dec. (I originally thought I got it in November, but I realized that I was just an idiot)
anyways a couple minutes later I'm using my Docomo Card on my unlocked Softbank phone.
I'm not gonna lie, it was well worth the $40.
Now, I am not sure if my mail is working. So you guys have any idea about the Docomo mail if that works or not on the Hermes?

They say as follows;
(1)
How do upgrade other radios:
Unlock using v4b unlocker. Upgrade again to the X01HT 1.09 rom. Now flash the phone with a COMPLETE rom (for example cingular 1.24 or imate ). Now the radio will be changed to something else. YOU MUST flash a full rom on a 1.09 so your radio it be flashing too.
(2)
ok again. PRIOR to flashing NEW RADIO ROM you have to upgrade to bootloader SPL1.09. You DO NOT NEED to run the unlocker again. Your phone has to show SPL1.09 when you run the ROM update with the radio of your choice.
Extended ROMs are EMBEDDED in the firmware update. Any access from WindowsCE to this ROM has nothing to do with SIM or CIDunlock.
So solution:
1) Update to bootloader SPL 1.09
2) Then run the update with radio firmware you like
NOTE: DO NOT RUN THE UNLOCKER AGAIN! Then it will work.

i don't fully understand you. are you saying imei-check says;
1) you can actually change radio rom 1.14 on x01ht?
2) you need to have bootloader 1.09 (by burning a full rom that includes bootloader 1.09 first) to burn a rom from different companies? after unlocking??
3) you should not use the unlocker more than once?
we'd appreciate if you could give us a clearer idea about the process. thanks.

To upgrade radio on a new "1.14.00.10 radio":
First unlock the device with v4b unlocker.
After unlocked ok, upgrade AGAIN to the SB firmware so the 1.09 bootloader back in place.
Now flash the device with a FULL original HTC Hermes firmware (for example cingular full firmware) and now the radio will be flashed to a different one.
IF bootloader is NOT showing SPL1.09 the radio it will NOT be flashed when you do the flash upgrade!!!

Thank you. But it is not unable to flash another radio rom.
I downgladed SPL from 1.09 to 1.04 for myself first,changed to a DOCOMO ROM.
And succeeded unlock to use M3100v4Unlock.exe.
However, the radio was unable to flash another radio rom.
Then,I read this advice,flashed a New Softbank Rom.
It was no lock.
However,can not run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe.
Unable to flash radio rom.
I think because SPL is 1.09.
Then,M3100v4Unlock.exe was made to run again.
When it used this tool, it became automaticaly SPL to downglade to SPL1.04.
I can run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe.
But, it is not unable to flash ...

Hi all.
My Softbank has b/l 1.04 and the 1.14.00.10 radio on it. To use this method,which rom do I use for the 1.09 b/l? I looked at wiki,and the only one was a Japanese version for softbank. It does not match my Softbank, so I am not real sure which way to go. Is there a Dopod rom with the 1.09 b/l?
BTW.....My Sb is an HERM200 with the Dopod splash screen and was shipped with the Dopod 1.23.707.4 WWE Rom, IPL 1.01,B/L 1.04, and the dreaded 1.14.00.10 radio on it.
Thanks................Later

2.06 3G Issue...

I have done the upgrade and everything went fine. After the upgrade it ran to extended rom configs and they went fine. My phone is no longer showing that it is connecting to 3G. All I have is the E logo on top. I am in my office and it is a 3g area, I was connecting 3G before the upgrade.
I have reinstalled the PTT .cab, and Hard Reset after it etc... Still the same.
I was going to upgrade my radio from 1.33 to 1.34 this morning, but when I ran that installer it told me that it was the wrong country??? Should I keep my radio 1.33? anyone know whats going on with this?
Thanks.

Maybe try putting SPL 1.09 on it then running the RUU Shipped Radio ROM 1.27 from Germany.
OK< I tried what you said. My phone is SPL 1.09. So I ran the 1.27 RUU. I got the same kind of error.

The ROM image that you are trying to use is not designed to work with your device. Please check the vendor website and download the correct ROM update.

Before loading another radio on it. just make sure it's the icon that is just not showing the correct connection, as some radios do... Check mspeed from your phone's browser for your actual connection speed... http://www.dslreports.com/mspeed

Good point. MT_PC_Hermes_PTT_REG_070129.CAB fixes the icon settings in the new Cing ROM.
Just ran a speed test... 207kbit/sec...
You might also just go to the \extended_rom via totalcommander or other filemanager and execute autorun.exe or at least the cab that corrects the 3g/u/e icons MT_PC_Hermes_PTT_REG_070129.CAB
A lot of people have found that for some reason after upgrading via mfg package to the 2.06 cingular rom, that the entire entended_rom did not run; even if they did not stop it after the upgrade. It looked like it loaded to most people, but they did not have the useless icons like telenav, mobiTV, etc..
OK, so something strange happened... I went to run POF's unlocker again. I ran it, but all of a sudden a ROM image begins to load? It looked like it was reloading the cingular image I loaded yesterday. Just than I get called into a meeting, when I get back, my phone is sitting there, looking the same as I left it before doing anything EXCEPT I have a G Icon now. Great, so I just checked the settings...
ROM Version 2.06.502.3
RADIO Version 1.16.00.00 ?????????????????????
Should I keep this radio or uupgrade it to a newer one, and if you think a newoer one than which should I try?

I think the consensus is that 1.27 is best until/if GPS ever works.
WAIT!, Lat time I checked your sig, did you not have Radio 1.34? Now I see you are on 1.27. Did you downgrade for a reason? I started the 1.34 upgrade just before you posted. What are the differences between 1.27 and 1.34?
Gromet
More strangeness...
So I started the 1.34 radio upgrade, click update, phone reloads into blotloader, goes to upgrading radio stack please wait... PC shows Stage 1: Upgrading Radio, BUT it just sits there at 0% than errors out.
SO
I ran the 1.27 Upgrade, SAME THING>???????????????????
Whats goin on?
BTW, I'm on SPL 1.09 and I ran Pof's Unlocker again successfully....

What is you Radio BL 107 or 108?
I had access to two separate 8525's. One had 1.34 and the other had 1.27 (BL0107). The 8525 I keep and use daily is on 1.27 with BL 0107. I am waiting for further NBH flashing directions before changing both devices to BL 0108.
When it goes into Botloader mode, it sais SPL 1.09, Where else do I find the bootloader version?

To access the radio bootloader for that, but the command to do this (rtask a) has been removed in SPL-1.09.
If you downgrade the SPL to 1.04, you can see it using radio bootloader command "rversion":
Code:
USB>rtask a
Enter Radio Bootloader
rversion

Gromet, this is normal behavour. Pofs unlocker flashes a hacked radio rom (1.16.00.00). Once device restarts, you need to copy the unlocker exe file (included in pof's unlocker zip) to your device, and then execute it on the device. I guess the exe that you run on the device interacts with the hacked radio to unlock the device somehow.
Once thats done, you'll get a 'success' message. Now you can download the shipped rom 1.27.00.00. Since your device is now superCID you can just exec the exe in the shipped rom directly to upgrade the radio from 1.16 to 1.27
Just make sure that you kill activesync before playing about with any rom flashing - it gets in the way.
Nigel
So yeah....
I did everything for PoF's Unlocker, and I GOT the SUCCESS message... but now I cant get any version of a radio upgrade to run. If activesync is on, It starts the upgrade and never gets past 0%, if activesync is off, i error out even before it ever starts the upgrade.

I don't have much to add other than, 'me too'--but eventually the upgrade worked. I Ran POF's unlocker and chose supercid as well. But couldn't get past that 0% with the 1.27.00.00 radio upgrade.
I'm at:
IPL - 1.00
SPL - 1.04
While typing up this message I decided to try again and type up the error verbosely.
Sure enough the sixth try was the charm.

I am back to 1.34 and I created the NBH standalone Radio ROM since the new tools are available now.
You can easily go between Radio ROM again YEAH!
Here are Radio ROMs:
1.27 http://uploadingit.com/files/8194/NBH Radio Only 1.27.00.00.zip
1.33 http://uploadingit.com/files/8194/NBH Radio Only 1.33.31.00.zip
1.34 http://uploadingit.com/files/8194/NBH Radio Only 1.34.00.10.zip

So, excuse my ignorance, but are we now saying that we can upgrade the radio roms listed without ending up with the 1.08 bootloader, or alternatively that 1.08 no longer causes a problem?

Bootloader Update

Hi,
I have a Quest unit that is stuck in bootloader. I can exit bootloader via the titan_exitbl, but the rom is corrupt. It is running SPL-1.06.0000
I can't get an activesync connection, so is there another way to update the bootloader to the Olipro version, so I can load the sprint rom, etc?
I've tried updating the ROM via SD and it states not allow, which I presume means the unit is still locked. But since bootloader is the only working, how do I recover it?
Your phone isn't unlocked yet, so flash the stock rom and radio so you can boot into windows, unlock your phone with 2.40, then run the sprint update

Is there one on the ppcgeeks ftp? most of the others are there.

phone is stuck at htc screen and it says no radio

i installed the wrong rom on the wrong hard spl. i had the hard spl a 1.30 installed and dcd 3.2.0. now the screen is stuck at the loading screen that says htc smart mobility. and no radio at the bottom. please help and the phone wont sync.
Good luck on that.. You installed a bootloader for a different model -- likely the TyTn or Trinity. What phone do you have? What instructions did you follow?
If you do have a Titan, then possibly via the SD Card you can change the bootloader to the new 2.47 (I haven't played with it yet but another may provide a solution). You are likely out of luck in flashing to any of the other Titan bootloaders as you must be able to boot into the OS, but with you error of installing an inappropriate bootloader you are out of luck there.
no it was a bootloader 1.30 for the titan
Your information is incoherent.
What rom/bootloader did you have prior to updating?
What rom/bootloader did you try to upgrade to?
You need a minimum SPL of 2.40 to install DCD 3.2.0
I use 2.47 from no2chem and it works great. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=30561
Are you able to boot up the device? If so copy the SPL 2.47 to the card then to the PDA and run it from there.
If not, put the PDA into Bootloader mode and try to install Olipro 2.40
http://www.lifesnotsogood.com/dcd1182/titan/spl/titan_SPL_2.40-olipro.exe
Failing that you can try to flash back to an official ROM if you have one.
You need to soft reset your phone while holding the Camera and power buttons. This will force your phone in to the bootloader. You should then be able to reflash to lower ROM. Then you need to search for Olipro or whatever the 2.40 bootloader is. Your best bet after that is to flash the official Sprint 3.35 Radio and Rom then flash to DCD's.
**Edited**
Sorry Hamilton didn't realize you gave a link to the 2.40 bootloader.
If he is sure that it is "bootloader 1.30 for the titan" then I know of NO such bootloader. He has likely installed the wrong bootloader (for another device) and therefore no amount of flashing to an OS ROM will help him boot into the OS. Unless via an SD card for 2.47, beastmode216 is stuck with a borked device.
So, beastmode216, I'll ask again, where did you get such instructions and where did you source your bootloader 1.30?
What is one of the earlier bootloaders? I was thinking my Mogul orginally had something like 1.30 or 1.40.
thanks guys but the problem is solved. just make the phone go in to the bootloader
Verizon stock bootloader is 1.30 if I remember correctly. It has been several months since I have seen a stock bootloader

My mistake, as pointed out by gc14 the stock bootloader is 1.04.
Ahh, ok, my fault as I thought that he had also installed a bootloader under the name of 1.30.. That could've been an unlocker for a TyTn or another device.
Correct, OEM bootloader should be 1.30.60.

This is incorrect. The stock bootloader is 1.04. The stock radio is 1.30.60.
SPL 1.30 does NOT exist for the Titan.
Stickies exist for a reason...to read them as they contain valid, useful information. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392133
