(Q) ready to root buut... - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm getting ready to root but my policy is always wait until you have the sbf or ruu before doing it. Cause you never know ,you might miss something and brick your phone. Sooo I've looked around and I'm not sure if the ruu is release for the tbolt? Thx alot

Help with old radio

I need a link that I can download the pg05img.zip file that my thunderbolt had before the new ruu update. I think it was .6 or .0023 or something . My phone ran so much smoother with it. Also I was running the perfect storm v1.3 and had a kernel from ziggy .(1.7) that I cannot find now from his website. I have been looking forever and finally I thought id ask you freaks. Jk . Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks . Oh and I searched every where to find it I'm just scared of losing in route because I rooted this phone the hard way having to install adb drivers and shell or whatever. Please help

If you don't have the answer for him, why bother responding at all?

I agree but it does get a tad irritating. I have been on the boards so long I have begun to ignore it. That link looks correct though.
Do I flash both of these files from hoot? Thanks for the help man some people take this stuff too seriously

Your right I sure did and only because they said I posted on the wrong thread. What are you the xda police?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
Yes, put on root of sd card and flash through hboot.
I lost root. Can I get it back without having to do the terminal adb thing?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
The first one you put on here I flashed but my software still said 1.12.605.9
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
The baseband version is the radio, not the software number.
How did you lose root?
Hey man seriously there need to be more ppl on here like you. Huge help. I fn flashed a stock radio apparently that caused me to lose root. I got confused about your post I knew what the first one was but didn't understand why the link to the thread was there. I had been there so many times. I'm getting the numbers confused I think . Do I have to root all over again? Can I flash a new radio from hoot? Thanks again

New update

Might be a stupid question but if I'm rooted and running clean ROM should I update to the new HTC update
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
To stay rooted, I suggest downloading a modified ROM from these forums.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
Ok thank u I almost f*** ed up I greatly appreciate it
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
Doing the PRI, RADIO, & RPM update shouldn't hurt anything. I'm running Viper Rom and updated just those 3 things and all is well. I don't know enough about CleanRom to say with 100% surity whether it will gank anything or not.

Newest ota on root and rom?

So I saw there's a new update already and it promises better radios ans such.... Should I update?? Also I can't through my rom so should I flash Tom's to a stock then accept it? I think my ron blocks HTC updates (steelROM)
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
don't update if you wanna keep root! just flash a ROM that has that ota.

[Q] Wimax file locations

Does anyone know where all the wimax files are located?
I have found 1 in system/lib
I am sure there has to be more.
Thanks in advance.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
I found 3 more in system/bin
I hope thats all of them
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
What do you need them for?
I am going to unlock my bootloader then adb push them back to there locations to see if that retains 4g after unlock. Want to make sure i have them all backed up. Its a long shot but worth a try.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Keep us posted and let us know how it works out for you.
Nice!!
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
I just unlocked. Going to push the files shortly. Then i have to drive 10miles to 4g area. Will post back.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Tried it. My 4g wont turn on at all. I think something happened when i restored my titanium backup. I think this because it came on after unlocking then after my titanium backup restore it wont come on at all now. I will keep working on it.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Sweet Man. You create a restore in CWM to bipass the Titanium Backup issue?
Sent from my Photon via XDA
No still playing with phone. I didnt have cwm installed yet. I will post update tomorrow when i get to work.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Cool Man. Good luck!

No go. Was worth a shot.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
That it was. Thanks for trying Man.
Sent from my Photon via XDA
From what I have between told, the unlocked bootloader doesn't pass the Wimax keys properly to the system. If that's the case, nothing you change on the ROM side of things will make a difference.

Sprint zipfile

Can someone put together a sprint zipfile of all the system files to connect to 3g/4g? So after I flash a rom I can flash over...
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
Hmm... looks like this has to be in the Q&A section too. No, there is no update zip of sprint files that will allow you to gain 4G with an unlocked bootloader on the photon. You have to flash your rom and then re-lock your bootloader to gain 4G. You will still have your ROM and locked bootloader.
Read the forum threads and post in the correct forum please.
Not what I was asking lol I alway knew that... I ment if I were to install a diffrnt carrier rom...
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
Sent from my MB855
He's trying to use like a atrix or electrify rom and still connect to sprint
