Radio Flashing help - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I updated to Cyanogenmod 7 and had no service. I followed the instructions and flashed the stock radio. I've now flashed a few of the different radios but can't get my Thunderbolt to connect to VZW's network.
Anyone have any idea how I can get a connection?
Thanks!

Which RC of CM7?
What "few...different radios"?
Newest version of CM7 no longer supports MR1 and requires one of the following MR2 leak, MR2.5 leak, OTA MR2, or GB leak.

I flashed RC1.4. I've flashed the newest and the oldest on this post. It isn't very clear anywhere which Radio goes with the latest CM7 version.

Is there a link to a radio that will work?
Appreciate your help!

Is it possible that I'm not flashing the radio correctly? I'm putting the PG05IMG file on my SD, booting in recovery mode, letting it update, and then rebooting.
As far as I thought...this was the proper way to update the radio?

No. Radios are not installed via recovery.
Download one of these (either will work)...
OTA MR2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160346
GB Leak: http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php?1669-Radio-Leak-7-17-11-2.xx.xxx.x-Radio-New-Gingerbread-RUU
Place the zip of whichever you choose on the root of your sdcard and name it PG05IMG.zip
Boot to hboot (either manually by booting with Power+VolDwn from power-off then select Bootloader or select "Reboot" then "Bootloader" from the Power menu in CM7).
Follow the directions to flash it in bootloader.
Reboot when you are told to.
You should now have service.
Make sure to remove the zip from your sdcard after booting as a safety precaution.

It worked...appreciate the help!!

Some people seem to have better luck with certain radios. I personally have been getting the best signal strength and battery life with the official OTA MR2 radio. Some people have said they have better luck with one of the leaked radios. I would reccomend trying the official OTA MR2 radio first if you are on a ROM that supports it. The OP of the ROMs thread will say which radios are compatible and recommended.

[Q] Das BAMF 1.5 install questions

So this is my first time installing a rom to my TB. I have installed many roms on my DX but through clockwork.
First question will i need to flash the new radio through Hboot before or after the rom
Second question will i flash the rom through clockwork or from hboot?
I know how to flash via both methods so any direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Ohh and I am rooted S-off already.

Radio through Hboot - Before OR After ROM. I did it before, and it worked fine - I've seen some do after, and it works too.
ROM - you can flash from Clockwork recovery, just like you did with your DX (other method is through Rom Manager, but since you're used to flashing through clockwork, I'd just do that (I came from a DX, too))
awesome thanks for the quick response. Hopefully the rom + radio combo will help with battery.

It should - I've been able to jump back to using the stock battery and get a full day's use out of the phone
FYI. There have been some issues with the radio included with Bamf1.5 causing random resets. If that ends up happening to you, Adrynalyne was kind enough to post up some different radios combos to try and avoid any reboot issues. I myself am running great on the radio that comes with Bamf 1.5, so just be ready for that. Switching and trying the different radios, you'll see, is pretty quick anyway, in case you need to.
yea i had upgraded my stock rooted rom to the newest cdma/lte combo from Adrynalyne and it started rebooting so i went back to the original radio cause I didnt feel like messing with it then. Ill have to grab all the combos before i shut my phone down as long as my 4g stays up long enough.
Thanks again for all your help up running Bamf remix 1.5 on the newest radio

Power down, press power and volume down at the same time to get into Hboot. Install the PG zip.
Make sure PG05IMG.zip is on root of sdcard
Power Down
Hold Volume Down and Power button at same time.
hboot will come up and check for PG file
Press power up when asked to start update
Radio will flash
After flashed press power to reboot when it says so.
If you have Clockwork installed it might boot to recovery screen afterwards. If it does just hit the home button on reboot now.

Did you flash a Gingerbread radio? That is almost 99% of the time the issue. You can't run 2.0 on stock Froyo radio. If you need help I can help further pm me.

It mentions the GB RUU so that means you have to have it. Which btw it's known to brick your phone without warning.
The reason you did not have any data is because you were still using the froyo radio, to run any of the BAMF 2.0's you need the gingerbread radio.
grab the mr2 radio. that will work

This is what it recommends I do
Things to know:
•A FULL WIPE IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
•This is a leaked GB RUU, it has bugs, all we can do is try our best to squash them! Flash at your own risk.
I thought the gingerbread radio was also included in the rom(my mistake). From a novice point of view. If I do a full wipe and then install bamf 2.0.
1. What method can be utlized to flash the gingerbread radio?
2. What is the correct gingerbread radio for bamf 2.0?
3. Is there a way to flash bamf 2.0 with the updated radio already included in the rom?
Thanks again in advance.
hey mojo they never found the cause of the few bricks so what you said was false and you flash the radio in hboot read the thread on rooting or the radios it tells you all you need to know how to flash it doesnot matter what order you flash the rom and radio just remember to delet the radio file from your sd card once you flashed it

Radios are seperate. They need to be flashed in the bootloader. Use the MR2 radio as the other radio bricks your phone.

No what you just said was false. Since they don't know where the bricking comes from, it's safe to say that its possibly from that radio. SOOOOOOOO use the MR2 radio instead.
there is no rom with the radio included, put the mr2 on your sd card rename it,reboot the phone and hold the down volume and power button until it brings you into the boot loader it will find the file and ask it u want to update hit the power button wait til its done and reboot

Just moved to BAMF 3.0 RC4 - now I have no mobile network.

Do I have to install MR2 or MR2.5 in order for the radio to work? I just flashed to BAMF 3.0 RC4 and I have no mobile network available... ouch.
I am having the same exact problem. Help would be great if you have figured it out!
yes they recommend mr2
When I reboot the phone I get two notifications:
"Sorry! Application HTC DM (in process com.htc.android.omadm.service is not responding"

Before you put the zip file onto your SD card, rename it to PG05IMG.zip exactly. So just remove the "(MR2)" from the filename.

[Q] Little problem, making sure I do this right.

Hey Guys,
Currently I am running CM7 RC1.2 MR1, I attempted to upgrade to the CM7 RC1.3 MR2. When the install was finished, there was no radio. So I naturally went back to my back up of MR1.
From what I have found I believe I need to first flash the Radio, then Flash the Rom correct? Are their any steps I can do to insure that I don't boot loop or brick the phone?
Thanks,
Steve

You can flash the radio first, or after you install the ROM. I always flash the radio first. The radio is located here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160346 if you want the latest Verizon OTA radio (MR2). Once you download the radio you want to check its MD5 to make sure there were no errors when you downloaded the radio. The MD5 for this radio is 97c195d733f61c6a699528747aff6892 using the program I've attached, you paste the MD5 and load the file into the program and it will tell you if they match. (Rename the attached file to md5.exe instead of md5.exe.zip and run it from your PC). If you flash an incomplete radio you could brick your phone. After you download the radio and check its md5 rename it to PG05IMG.zip and place it on the root of your Micro SD card. Restart your phone holding the bottom volume key down and hboot will ask if you want to install the zip, say yes. Once your radio is flashed boot to ClockworkMod recovery and install the new ROM. Remember to remove or rename the PG05IMG.zip on your Micro SD card after your done or next time you go into hboot it will want to install the radio again.
Awesome thanks. I kinda figured I had it right I just wanted to be sure. Thanks for the md5 checker as well.

Awesome. It was smart of you to ask about flashing your radio. It's one of the few ways you can brick your phone if the file is not complete.

2.13.651.1 Firmware Bits

Hey there. Today we were fortune enough to see such a beautiful update with Android 4.0.4 and Sense 4.1. Along came some new firmware. Here you'll find three flashable zips, one with the entire firmware package (new hboot, kernel, and recovery), one without hboot and recovery, and one just alike, but without the kernel, hboot, and recovery. I've tested the no kernel, hboot, and recovery version, and it was successful.
This updates your Baseband (Radio) to
v.1.12.11.0809, And your HBoot (Bootloader) to v.1.19.00.
Don't blame me if your phone blows up. I didn't make these, I am simply sharing them. I am here to help if you need it though.

Requirements:
S-Off
How to flash (install):
Download your zip of choice, and rename it to PJ75IMG.zip, and save it to the root of your external sd card. Reboot into bootloader mode, and accept the update. Let it run through, and wait for the successful message. Don't forget to delete the PJ75IMG.zip off of the root of your external sd card after updating, so that if worst case scenario, you can reboot into bootloader or recovery mode. Once you flash the latest firmware, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REVERRT TO THE PREVIOUS FIRMWARE VERSION. It has been reported to brick devices for good!

Q: "I flashed a version with the new kernel included, and all of a sudden my WiFi is borked, F*#% YOU RYDAH! How do i fix it?"

A: Revert to a kernel that is based on your rom version. You have a few options, 1: Restore a recent nandroid. Be sure to only restore the "boot" partition, and you'll be good to go. 2: Re-flash the kernel you were using. If you'd like, you could take the modules folder from the OTA, and push them over, replacing the old modules folder. (SYSTEM/LIB/MODULES/) - That is merely a suggestion, as others have stated, but I cannot confirm this, as I am running 2.13.651.1.

Is it possible to throw up a version with the kernel included as well, but not the HBOOT or RECOVERY for those of S-OFF that want to flash the kernel through bootloader as well?
If it is possible to just take the boot.img (kernel) from the one version you have up and add it to the one w/o the boot.img in it and flash that through bootloader; I can just do that...
Let me know please and THANK YOU MUCH for being so quick about it.
just flashed worked perfect!! :good:

Is this equivalent to installing just the radio?

yes this should install the new radio, and PRI..i havent installed it yet so i am not sure what else is included
Is there something that prevents flashing if your battery is too low? I tried and it failed so I redownloaded and tried again but failed. Admittedly my battery is at 13% right now though. Or would being on viper ROM prevent it for some reason?
Just updated, no issues to report !

i believe the answer is Yes and flashing stuff while that low is playing with fire. Turn it off, put it on a wall charger and wait 30 minutes, bro. The file ain't going anywhere
anyone report better wifi/3g speeds and stability?

Don't hold me to it but i dont think it matters what ROM your on because this is just firmware updates not a new ROM. i have the same problem sometimes when doing this kind of install method and the problem is that its named wrong. once you d load it and put it on your SD card go into es file explore and rename it in there. then try again and see what happens.

You should be 50 %, my recommendation is 100% before u start fooling around with ur phone, I learned that lesson the hard way when I bricked my phone with 30 % battery and it didn't want to charge, and ruu wouldn't run since the phone didn't have enough power. I eventually got the phone to charge but I had no phone for like 2 hours, you never know what can go wrong. Especially with radios they will brick ur phone for good.
I know from past experience with my evo 3d, running a new rom with a new base, and having the older firmware caused issues, but it shouldn't cause issues running new firmware with older rom base right?
I updated radio and firmware before the Rom last time with out issues

I'm pretty sure you have to be S-OFF to flash. You would get errors if you're not since these aren't signed with HTCs key.
