Do i need to install the new radio from the das BAMF 1.6 thread if I'm gonna flash das BAMF 1.6 remix?
Don't think so. I did before but got random reboots on bamf roms. There is a radio thread in the dev section with all the radio combos. I went back to old radio and my 3g was 1x a bunch of the time. I put the .7cdma and .6lte radio combo on and things got better for 3g and reboots stopped.
Your results may vary. This is my experience, other people don't have issues with other radios? Must be caused by sun spots and solar flares

Running MR2 Das BAMF Gingerstripped with Imo's GB Sense 3.4.0 kernel. All is running perfectly well (aside from slightly odd battery behavior) except for one thing. MMS doesn't work. Apparently I'm not alone many others are reporting the issue in mostly all GB roms and I was just wondering has a solution been posted yet?
i have the same rom, radio, and kernel and no go on the mms receiving or sending; i really like the gingerstripped, but currently sitting in my clockwork directroy as nandroid backup until the MMS can be worked out.
i searched around and havent found an answer for this. Can anyone chime in on a possible fix?
I noticed just yesterday that my mms sending and recievng is not working . Im using bamf 1.8.6 with the mr2 radio . I didnt have these problems until yesterday . I swiitched back to the mr1 and my 1.8 backup and still no go .
Maybe something to do with the fact it is stripped, maybe something was accidentally removed? BAMF 3 rc4 here, mr2.5, imo 3.4.0 and MMS is working fine here, sending and receiving.

You're saying you are now back on the MR1 radio and running Froyo and still you can't send/receive MMS? That is some bad juju right there.
Hey g00s3y, you say MMS works for you on BAMF 3.0 RC4. My question to you is, did you flash the radio after you flashed the ROM? I flashed Radio -> Rom. Maybe flashing the radio over the rom will help? I am willing to try it but I just want to make sure flashing the radio won't affect my data/rom right?

As far as I know, it shouldn't matter which one you flash first. I have went back and forth from froyo/GB quite a bit in the past, and just flashed the radio whenever I got around to it. But most of the time I did install the radio in hboot first, reboot into the phone, then reboot into recovery and wipe/install the rom.
MMS works fine on BAMF 3.0 RC4.
MMS on Das Bamf 3.0 Rc4 with the MR2 radio works for me.
EDIT: I flashed MR2, then Das Bamf 3.0 RC4
Update: I flashed to CM7.1 RC1.2 and I can now send/receive MMS however...
... I gave up GPS as a trade off Looks like you really can't have your cake and eat it too.
BAMF works fine for MMS.

BAMF Sense works. Gingerstripped was having serious issues sending and receiving MMS however, and I am not alone. Many people in the Gingerstripped thread are reporting the same problem, and since there hasn't been an update to it in awhile it's safe to say it still has the same problem.
I loved Gingerstripped, and the work you guys are doing with BAMF is GREAT! Keep it up!
I was having trouble sending and receiving MMS for the last month. Not sure if it started with stripped FROYO 1.7 or 1.8, but it carried onto gingerstripped. I love this rom, but had to switch do to charging issues, which is supposedly worked out with a lean kernel. I dunno, I never tried it. I couldn't deal with the charging thing.
I'm CM7ing it right now, and have not tried the GPS, but am having trouble with notification issues.
You can't have your gingerbread and eat it too.........

Give GPS a shot and see if it works. I mean true GPS, not network based. I don't get a lock at all. Literally sat there for a good while trying to find location and nothing. Charging issues were fixed indeed by Imoseyon's latest kernels.
As for notification issues, what exactly is the problem? I am using Handcent and my notifications for texts are fine. Haven't had any missed calls or emails yet so dunno about those.
Ok... I'm fairly new to ROMs... but I've loaded Das BAMF 2.1, and Das BAMF 3.0 RC3 and recently RC4... first used MR2.5, but during an attempt to load CM7 RC1.1 I got no radio... so I loaded MR2... but still no Radio. And of course went back to Das BAMF 3.0. I found MR2 to work better for me.
I attempted to reload CM7 again. Double checked the MD5 Sum. Then did the following:
Wipe device, wiped Cache, wiped Dalvik cache.
Installed CM7 RC1.1, installed GAPPS
Booted up... no radio... let it sit for 10 minutes... no radio
Reloaded MR2 radio... booted up... let it sit again... no radio... I get maybe 2 bars, but no LTE/3G or any data.
I'm stumped... I'm back up on Das BAMF 3.0 RC4 with MR2 radio, full LTE and 5 of 6 bars at home.
Any suggestions for getting CM7 to work.... PLEASE!!!!
When you had no data after flashing the CM7 (MR2+ version since that's your radio) did you try going to Settings->Wireless&Networks->Mobile Networks and switching to CDMA/EVDO Auto? I would have done that first. Might get it working for you. You can switch back to LTE after you get a signal (if you do).

A good suggestion. Also make sure your back cover is always on as it finishes the antenna's circuit If neither of these things fix the issue, I'll help you dig deeper into it.

I will give this a try tonight... yes, it's the MR2+ version of CM7 RC1.1.
And yes, I have a tight fit on the battery cover... I've only taken the battery cover off twice (first when I got the device and second to pull the SD Card temporarily)... I get great signal strength with my current ROM and the same radio - MR2.
I'll report back tonight.
I downloaded RC1.2 and did the same thing I did above... and it worked... no issues except I'm only showing one bar... looks like I've got some reading to do.
If you know anything about the one bar I'd like to know... this is at work where I usually see 3 or 4 bars.
CM7 will show lesser bars than any sense ROM. It doesnt make a difference in signal strength or connectivity.

Hoping someone can provide some feedback. I recently converted to the MR2.5 radio & when I did that I went to the DAS BAMF 1.8.6 ROM. I know the creators of the Gingerbread BAMF ROMS have said that the MR2 radio works better than the 2.5 with their ROMS, but I've also heard from independent people that it can go either way as far as reliability & stability. And it seems (from what I've read on the MR2.5 thread) that the majority of people seem to be having good luck with the 2.5 radio even with the DAS BAMF Gingerbread ROMS. So far with the MR2.5 Radio and DAS BAMF 1.8.6, my phone is as stable as it's ever been. I haven't had a single reboot since I installed the ROM right after it came out. It seemed like no matter what ROM I had before, I still got at least an occasional random reboot with the MR1 radio. I'm thinking about making the leap From Froyo to Gingerbread with DAS BAMF - should I switch to the MR2 radio, or stay with the 2.5 since it seems to be working fine for me so far? Besides just the BAMF ROMS, what radio seems to work best overall for the Gingerbread ROMS? Any feedback would be appreciated! Thanks.
I have better luck on BAMF 3.0 RC4 with the MR2 radio vs 2.5..
I'm on bamf 3.0 rc3 w/ mr2 radio and it is working great. Gps locks on immediately and no random reboots.

I know they recommended mr2 but I was on mr2.5 prior to flashing this rom and so far it's been alright. I don't think there is any hard to using 2.5 but we'll see if problems arise for me.
bamf 3.0 rc4 mr2.5 works great for me. havent tried the mr2 radio tho. no reboots, almost instant gps lock
I just installed BAMF 1.8.6 on my thunderbolt. Before doing so I cleared all data / cache / dalvik as instructed. Everything seems to work great now that I have the new rom running but I cannot access any wireless networks make calls access internet or text. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I used this rom:
[ROM] [06.20.11] BAMF Remix 1.8.6 - UPDATE**MR2 radio and custom kernel support!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1027804
Obviously I'm new to this so I didn't add any new radios or anything to that extent. I assume that is the issue but I'd rather not play around with things I'm not familiar with. If you can point me in the right direction if it is a radio and to which radio I should upgrade to I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!

You need either the MR2 , MR2.5 or the new radio that dropped today. The MR2 is a good stable radio. All of these radios will work on the newer froyo builds like bamf 1.8.6 or any gingerbread rom. There are a couple of threads for these radios in TB development.
Good luck!

I've been using this for the past
couple days w/ the leaked mr2 radio
and it has been pretty good.
I got an extra 1hr of uptime and 30mins
of awake time. (15hrsUp/5hrsAwake)
Last night I flashed the official MR2
radio and all is well. I think the reason
you aren't getting any service is because
either you flashed your radio wrong or
you never did it.
Here's the link to the thread w/
just the new official mr2 radio that i used

Hey guys I just rooted my phone running stock debloated rom with the latest radio. After doing all that everything seems to be ok but my question is that lately I've been noticing that my 4G seems to be spotty (disconnect and reconnect) but only for a split second then I would get network error but as soon as hit ok it reconnects just a quickly as it went away (my signal avg 3 bars)...is this normal ? Thx in advance
Okay, first, what are you actually running? Stock ROM is not debloated, and 'latest' radio could be mr2, mr2.5, or mr2 OTA.
