[Q] Is there a radio update with ED01? - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there an ED01 radio? It looks like ppl are saying that EC01 and ED01 are the same, but I haven't seen an actual ED01 radio to ODIN flash anywhere. Anyone know the story? And where I would get ED01 radio? I'm rooted, not stock Touchwiz-based rom and don't want to mess with official update if I can avoid it. I'm also not entitled and demanding someone do this if it requires doing. If it's important and hasn't happened yet, I'm sure it will. Anyways, thanks in advance.

As of now there is no ED01radio. However there should be one soon.

There should be one soon? There wasn't a radio leak, so there isn't a way to get one unless there ends up being a leak. It's my understanding there currently is no way to pull just the radio file, and that is why using the "phone" option in Odin was irreversible until DJ05 came about.

I know, but I like Kaos' work on the Eris and wasn't planning on flashing unitll his next update just wondering if there was any special flashing method for it. Fascinate seems to be a bit more difficult than the eris is

You need a voodoo kernal and make a backup.

Removing kaosinate might get a bit tricky though. I had to odin back to di01 and start over. Your mileage may vary of course.

Hey
Instead of going all the way back to dl01 why not just flash eb01 with odin from here... http://www.droidforums.net/forum/sa...roms-w-root-new-clockwork-updated-2-11-a.html
By the way, kaoscinate is an awsome rom is you can live without sensuous, wifi, and bluetooth.

[Q] SuperClean radio/kernel combination

I've read that using the eb01 kernel and DL09 radio can improve battery life in SC 2.8. Truth?
myth..
however i wouldnt try any other radio with eb01
Give it a shot. Easy enough to do the switch and you can always go back. The presenter of that configuration is a trustworthy source here on the forums.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
dunno about battery life yet .. going to wipe bstats in a few . i can say that it improved my data connection tremendously .
Actually, it's highly probable. Especially if you use gps. It's a commonly known fact DL09 had the best gps lock of any other. Dunno about data connection speeds...
being a noob, I don't want to mess up how my phone is working right now. I used adrynalyne method to flash my phone back after 2.7, to stock. Flashed new CWM, flashed 2.6 then 2.8 voodoo, used eb01 kernal, and enabled lagfix. I also have EB01 midnight/steel blue theme rocking. I would like to get back to dl09, becuase of the GPS performance. Do I need to do anything special before I do that, or just find and flash it via CWM. Voodoo is the part that makes me hesitant, and that fact that I use my phone as my modem, so I mess it up, I can't access this forum to fix it.
Thanks in advance.
Chopper posted a .tar. I'm on voodoo too , just flash via Odin in the PDA section.

As stated above by lucas.scott use odin to flash the tar file using the pda option. And below are links to both so you can undo it if you should feel the need.
EB01 modem
DL09 modem
Credit to danknub (from irc) for the links and hosting.
good day.
do I have to worry about voodoo? Or is that just the kernal that i worry about? sorry for the noob question.

Not at all. Flashing a modem tar with odin includes no voodoo worries.

Thanks for the quick reply, trying now!
How is it working out for you guys? I am tempted to try it, but would like to know if you see any differences. Thanks!
Dl09 is better for gps in my case
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
Haven't seen any difference in battery life . But GPS went from taking 15 minutes to sync on eb01 , to about 2 seconds . So that's well worth it in my book .
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Update to sc 2.9.1and you won't have anymore gps issues. I lock almost immediatly.
Any improvement in reception, battery life, data tranmission (i.e. reliability and speed)?
I tested it for a few hours, and noticed that my MMS died. I could not receive MMS messages, it would stick on downloading. Of course after that, I went right back to EB01 modem.
Hmmm I haven't had any mms problems. In fact , I was experiencing data drops on eb01 . Dl09 cured that for me . Crazy how different phones are reacting so differently .

Honestly though, I should test again. The MMS in question were from my girlfriend who is on T-Mobile, and I have often experienced bull**** from her MMS with T-Mobile. So that may be it, I might test further because most people say DL09 is sweet.
Tell me about it dude , my girl is on at&t and about 60% of our texts never reach each other . Switching her to vzw this month.

Ea28 and eb01 radio

Are they the same radios accept that ea28 has fixed emergency calling feature?
Ea28 comes through an ota so it is an official radio. You will look less suspicious as a rooter if you are running this radio I'd imagine. I don't know what the actual differences are though and I don't think change logs are available. Hopefully someone can enlighten us.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
I don't believe they are the same radio. EA28 radio is still the one that came with the EA28 Eclair build. EB01 radio (modem) is the one that came with the leaked EB01 build which gave us the superclean versions 2.0 and higher and a few of the other Froyo roms we are playing with. The EB01 modem also still has the emergency calling fix.
I believe people have had problems with the EB01 radio not ringing all calls and when that happens not showing missed calls. Seems like DL09 and EA28 radios have less of this issue than the EB01 radio. I'd recommend EA28 so VZ knows you have their latest.

Superclean 2.9.1
EB16 voodoo kernel
EA28 radio
DL09 radio helped me with some GPS issues on an earlier SC build. But been using EB01 since then. In every day use their is nothing to do different with either radio. And its easy to switch back and forth to see which better using using tar files in Odin.

[Q] 4/21 An official Fascinate 2.2 update ota?

Hi yall, so I just found out that verizon is pushing out an official froyo build ota on the 21st, tomorrow. But the thing is, My phone is already running under DL30 rom rooted and prefering not to install the new update. Not that I don't want to experience a new froyo, it's just because I'm too lazy to go back all the way to 2.1 then de-root the phone........ ehhhhhh........ Now my question is, is there a way for me to disable the automatic update? p.s.Last time when verizon pushed out an update ota, my phone would just constantly turn on and off) Thank you guys!
If you're on DL30 I doubt you'd be able to receive the ota even if you wanted to.
And, in the future, please post your questions in the Q&A section.

are there any differences between the "official" froyo and the froyo we have all been using previously (I do know it has been mes source..just wondering if its worth moving to the official upgrade).
Thanks.

Meh, from what I have tested for adryn and others the mes source stuff handles the same, at least kernel wise. The rom ec01 leak seemed to run pretty well, I'm fixing to flash ED01 and try it

Thanks for the info. I'm at a point where "if it 'ain't broke, don't fix it" so I might pass on this update.

[Q] No Service after Flashing ROM

My Thunderbolt is rooted, but no matter what ROM I flash i can't get service. This happened after installing CM7. I have tried flashing different ROMs, updating radios, and returning to stock. But no dice. I can get the phone into HBOOT and Recovery, and the phone will boot, but when it says to select language, and then goes to the Activation screen, it just says "Activating..." and does nothing else. Any ideas, or a fix would be very helpful! Thanks!
EDIT: Problem was fixed by flashing most recent Radio. When i flashed CM7 for some reason it deleted my radio files.. hmm
Sounds like something mighta broke after flashing. I'd flash 605.9 and give big red a call. I know not much help, but sounds like you tried everything else. Good luck
I know you said different Roms, but you try a sense ROM?
i know its basic but you have the backplate attached right its needed to get signal
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using xda premium
Lol yes backplate is on. I just checked "about phone" and it says "baseband unknown" I think I have the wrong radio. I am going to search for the MR1 radio and install. I am running CM7, any idea on most recent radio?

I flashed the most recent radio with ADB. Ran into a bunch of issues using the "flash_image" method.
Here is the link for all the radios:
