you NEED to flash HSPL before you flash ROMs or RADIOS

Verizon XV6800 Custom ROM

I am wondering, those of you with XV6800's with custom rom:
1. Is it worth updating vs. the stock rom. What are the benefits?
2. How difficult is it? I flashed my T-Mobile Wing a few times.
3. Can I find the stock rom to go back to incase I don't like the custom rom, or have to return the phone?
Thanks in advance.
Go to PPCGEEKS.COM
Try DogGuy's custom Titan ROM.

I cannot locate the Verizon stock rom in forums
How do I install the stock rom once it is located. I have one from my brother that is a signed Verizon rom that is a .nbh file.

Just use the relocker and flash back to the stock rom it should also have the radio to.
Yes. I'm on the relocker. I'm at the tri-color screen and the next step would be to do the stock radio but I cannot find the exe or how to install the original rom. I am stuck on spl 1.06.
Sorry I meant the stock rom with radio.

After four 2.17 ROMs and two WM 6.1 ROMs..
I am back to stock ROM.
If I ever liked any custom ROM, it was DCD 1.6.10 (2.17) w/ 1.40 Radio.
It was clean and fast.
However.. I had a major problem with the battery draining just too fast.
With equal setup(apps & plug-ins) with stock ROM.. it may be bit slow, but the battery lasted much longer.
I do not know exactly why it drained so fast.. but I am leaning toward to the theory that if you make any tweak to make your device faster..(like shorter delay for example..) it comsumes more energy.
Well I am using dcd 2.2.6 WM6.1, and it is great. the battery life is awesome. I had to add a bunch of tweaks to the stock ROM to get about 4 days worth of usage. Before that I would only get about 1-2 days. Now with the custom rom I am at 5 days and 40% power left. And I didn't add any tweaks to it. I haven't loaded much on my phone yet, since I have been waiting to seem if a new ROM will come out that I will move too.
I don't know why other people are having issues, but for me, battery life is just awesome now.

[Q] Simple Questions for Bamf 1.7 all versions

I have just rooted my Thunderbolt and I am looking to install a rom. Das Bamf looks great. I have experience flashing roms on my OG Droid. However I never had to flash any radios. What radios will work/recommended for Bamf? And Do I need to install the 1.7 first then the remix or is the remix a full rom? How do I install the custom lock screens?
You should not have to flash a radio with 1.7 it comes packaged with everything you need. Do a backup, wipe, and flash the new rom.

same you would a radio. download the zip to your sd card and install it from recovery. When i first installed BAMF, i installed the first or second radio in the radio thread. I had reboots since day one. Then i tried the 3rd radio which i think is old cdma version/new lte version, i still got reboots but not as many. i then went to GB, but went back to Froyo on the news that came out. When i went back, to Froyo, i installed the 4th radio in the thread, which i believe is old cdma version/old lte version. i have not had any reboots since i have gone back. so my recommendation would be to go with the fourth radio.
So still a little confused. If I download 1.7 from rom manager it will flash the radio for me as part of the flash rom step or I need to flash the radio first then install the rom with rom manager?
Also a little help with themes too (see above )

Radios are flashed separately through HBoot, not through recovery. The radios are also not part of the Das Bamf rom. However, the stock radio should work with Das Bamf. There's a separate radio thread here that has some combinations. Do not flash the Gingerbread radio until you read more about the subject. I'm using the second radio listed in that thread, the .7 CDMA radio with the .6 LTE radio(No reboots since I switch to that combo). The instructions for flashing a radio can be found here.
As for Das Bamf, I would recommend downloading it from the thread and loading it manually through recovery instead of going through ROM Manager. Although I've used ROM Manager successfully in the past, many people have had various problems with using it to flash ROMs.

Nothing scientific about it, I just saw someone else say that they stopped getting the random reboots after switching to that particular combo.(The theory was that they were related to the .7 LTE radio) I decided to give it a shot, and I haven't had a random reboot since switching a few weeks ago. I'd say go with that combo until you have a reason to switch to something else due to either problems or newer versions being released.
Thx for the help! If I have a problem which one is the Stock radio. I ask because my og Droid had a touch screen issue and I had to un root it. Will all the extra steps in these time and rooting procedures it is confusing. If I use the auto un root will it reinstall the stock OS and radio along with un rooting and s-on

I've had no problems on BAMF stripped 1.1 and 1.7 on both the release and newest radios.
Tried to flash BAMF 2.0.5
Flashed the first radio in the list of radio's booted back into froyo and it worked fine, flashed BAMF 2.0 Beta 5 and got alot of HTC force close. One was sync and I'm assuming another was the software that activates the phone. After getting to a WIFI, I signed into google and got to the dialer and tried *228 and it told me that I needed to install a sim card. Sim Card was installed! I freaked out and restored a recovery of the stock rom rooted and have no problem getting a signal.
1.) What did I do wrong, do I just need to install one of the other radio's?
2.) When I recover, did it also revert back to the radio that was installed when I did the backup (stock)?
I am a first time HTC flasher!! )) I had a OG that I ran Bugless Beast and many others on, a droid x that ran the gingerbread leak. Maybe I should just be happy to be rooted and on Froyo but I couldn't stay away from Gingerbread after having it on the Droid X. Thanks in advance for your help!!

Das BAMF 2.0 Beta #5 REQUIRES a Gingerbread radio, not a Froyo radio.
The banf 2.0 needs a gingerbread radio. The radio currently is causing bricks. Go back to froyo!

Thanks for the quick reply, I must have downloaded the wrong one, I used the link for the radio from the Das BAMF 2.0 Thread. Thanks for the help, I'll try again.

Excellent post. I flashed to 1.7 today through Recovery as well and haven't had any issues yet. I used Recovery for previous ROM updates also with no problems. I have not tried to flash through ROM Manager, since Recovery has worked well.
I had earlier flashed the radio, so I'm not running the stock radio. I'm running the first radio in the thread (I had 3G/4G handoff issues with the old version of the LTE radio).
Just do a nandroid backup first to be on the safe side.

Help with which radio to be using?

Just need a question answered. Rooted then went with dasbam prev 4 and the Mr2 radio. Was having problems with Bluetooth and accessing SD card so went back to the stock Rom from root. Now I need to now which radio to flash back from Mr2 since it does not work with stock rooted Rom?
Thanks

i would go with one of the ones in this thread for froyo myself.
if your already on the mr2 radio i would just flash a rom that has the latest software base (1.66 something i think). if you want to stick with stock theres still plenty of stock or basic de bloat roms that are using that base. i would recommend the perfect storm. it looks fairly stock but has some nice features.
Mr2 has been a major update for me. Radio is much better and gps lock is damn near instant.

Help upgrading to Alien!

Hey guys, so Ive been out of the country for about a month and came back to an overwhelming amount of roms and upgrades.
so Im running the leaked Hong Kong version back when it was the first 2.3.4 to release and flashed it using fastboot (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138092)
i never upgraded to .91 but Im running the new radio and romracer CWM.
to upgrade to Alien, can i simply flash it using cwm even though im running the really buggy 2.3.4 from a month ago, or should i upgrade to the official .91? i held back from doing that because of the hard brick problem
im familiar with fastboot and adb commands but I just need a quick step by step to get from where i am to running alien or any 2.3.4 based rom
thanks!

Since your already unlocked and have RomRacers CWM installed, I'd just flash 2.3.4 fruitcake, to get to a more stable version of 2.3.4 first.... like sbf flashing, but without the need for RSD lite.

flashing to a less buggy .91 can never hurt. ever. ever.

From Group to GB

So I may be totally out of the loop or just getting old. I am running a rooted froyo and want to bump it to Gingerbread. The new release seems exciting... but I can't find any guides to go from froyo to GB... Can anyone help me out or is it a lot simpler than I think... I know I have to flash the radio maybe and then the Rom?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Since you didn't say which froyo you were coming from and some radios work on both froyo and gb download a gb radio and flash that in hboot first. Now download newest "rooted" version in general section, flash in recovery after a full wipe of data, cache, davlik since so much is updated.

very simple process, read the sections on flashing ROMs and radios, then it should take all of 20 minutes to actually do
note: if flashing the stock S-on, that's called and RUU, read the appropriate section of the guide and CHECK MD5 SUMS!!!
Yup will do thanks! I'm running 1.8.6 das bamf right now... I think its about time to upgrade this weekend
