C78P radio had some issues & there was a problem with text messaging, this can solve text messaging issues, this Radio is stronger than 78P, also this Radio is from 2.3.6 OTA update,
And yes cheekrox, u can flash it on your rooted stock rom

Your radios can be inserted into the EternityProject ROMs Thread as they, yup, they're unofficial packages, but flashing official radios.
We should only be sure that those packages are working.

op is updated

It does on my german device.

Hi there:
I when through and flash the 85P in the Latin America firmware from Brasil that is posted in the forum. The flash apparently did when through, the phone rebooted, enter the recovery mode with the little android, it changed to a triangle with an exclamation sign and later on rebooted just fine and I have signal. In the about phone, the baseband number still appears as the old one. Is that a sign that the flash does not indeed when through, or it is just a build.pro thing. Any code on the dialer to check what baseband is running on the phone??

[Q] # fastboot flash radio new_radio.img ? YES YOU CAN! :)
Is it possible to use Android SDK's tool; fastboot ?
Of course the RAZR is in AP Fastboot mode. . I am only using GNU/Linux and usually I use the fastboot tool to flash my N1's radio.
Example
Code:
# fastboot flash radio new_radio.img
Updates:
YES! I able to flash the radio with the fastboot method.
Anyway, do it at your own risk!.
Thank you.

Sure, you can do that,
After unzipping the file, rename the radio file to "radio.img",
Then go on with "fastboot flash radio radio.img"

I flashed it with fastboot but same thing happen. I got a ok sending and writing radio at cmd and the phone booted to the little android screen. The bar started to fill up, at haft of it the icon changed to a triangle with an exclamation point. After some second it rebooted and in the about I still have the same old baseband information from the Latin American Fastboot file that is here in the forums, not the new one as 85P.

Thank you.
Please add the fastboot method in your 1st post.
2nd question:
Is it possible to downgrade the firmware after installing higher version of the firmware.
Example:
If my current radio firmware version is ...78P and upgraded to 85P. Then, I want to downgrade to 73P again... is this possible?
Tips:
To make life easier, you can put the RAZR directly into AP Fastboot mode using # adb reboot bootloader while the RAZR is up running.
In my case, after the fastbott flash ... RAZR displayed the Android robot and open box, with progress bar. After few minutes, it restarted normally.
Remember to md5sum the radio.img file before flashing. The md5 value is in the .xml file.

I found this one click radio flasher software on a chinese forum
the program itself is in chinese but it is as straightforward as it gets
download the file
unzip
make sure you have the usb drivers installed on your pc
enter AP fastboot mode
connect your phone to your pc
enter 1 for 78P radio 2 for 83P, or 3 for 85P
hit enter
it will start the flashing process (this part will be in english)
it will reboot automatically when its done

[Q] Update with an unlock bootloader

Hi,
I just wanted to know if I can update my atrix (Bell) to 2.3.4 (official) if I have an unlocked bootloader and Rom Manager (CWM 4.0.1.5) without brick my phone ?
Thank you in advance
Yes, download official OTA to your PC.
moto-fastboot boot.img, system.img, radio.img... reboot --- >>> done
You are on official OTA withut screwing up your bootloader.
Thank you very much, but where can I donwload it ???
And "moto-fastboot boot.img, system.img, radio.img... reboot --- >>> done" does not tell me much

You can also use the flashing instructions form the above thread, except add the radio from first step, and your instructions will look like this:
1. extract moto-fastboot to your C: drive
2. place the downloaded radio.img, system.img and boot.img in the moto-fastboot folder
3. boot your phone into fastboot mode by holding down the bottom volume button while pressing power, press volume button up, wait for it to say "starting fastboot protocol".
4. connect your phone to your PC (make sure the USB drivers are installed)
5. go to moto-fastboot folder, right click while holding shift, select "open command prompt here"
6. type in "moto-fastboot devices" ENTER, make sure your phone is recognized.
7. then:
moto-fastboot flash boot boot.img
moto-fastboot flash system system.img
moto-fastboot flash radio radio.img
moto-fastboot -w
moto-fastboot reboot
8. Done.
Oh god, thank you so much, I love you (no homo) !!

Could you elaborate which step exactly didn't work? I am sure it's fixable.
P.S. I also found an easier way of updating. There is a CWM update file of a 2.3.4 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195922
This one is slightly modded, but very easy - just flash it through CWM, wipe data and reboot.

Once your bootloader is unlocked, you cannot lock it again. Once unlocked, always unlocked.

You can SBF flash to 2.2.2, and the "Unlocked" text will disappear from the boot screen, that is if you don't HARD BRICK.
This is the only way, but THERE IS A VERY HIGH CHANCE OF HARD BRICKING.
So, I don't recommend it unless you know what you are doing.
What is the condition you might hard brick? I have an ATT attrix that the wifi/Bluetooth chip is faulty and I need to get a replacement. Worst case is I return it with the unlocked bootloader.

If you have previously updated to official 2.3.4 OTA, then you will hardbrick. (flashed more than just the radio, system, boot partitions)

I originally unlocked with pudding and then ran the HKTW build. After that I used custom roms via cwm...never did an official update. So I should technically be safe right?
If I sbf to 1.8.3, can I get back to 2.3.4 using cwm? I don't lose the unlock right?

Yes, technically, you are safe.
If you sbf to 1.8.3 you will have to reflash pudding. SBFing messes up the unlock.

Which version of moto-fastboot did you download? Please, list the files which are located in your moto-fasboot folder. Are you sure you have launched the command prompt from the moto-fasboot folder?
When you start, your command prompt should read:

Download this exact version of moto-fastboot - http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=635584&d=1308928440
(remove the one you currently have except for the .img files).
Extract it to C: directory and then do the "moto-fasboot" commands, they will work.
Updating via OTA will most likely work, but it will mess up the bootloader (you will not longer be Unlocked) + you won't be able to flash back.
So, the way i proposed is safer. For starters, you can flash the boot.img and system. img only via moto-fastboot (It's all you really need).
moto-fastboot flash boot boot.img
moto-fastboot flash system system.img
moto-fasboot -w
moto-fastboot reboot
You will then have a fresh 2.3.4 stock system. If everything is alright, you can update the radio.img as well, and webtop.img if you use it.

[HOWTO] Recover Razr, from bad flash, corrupted ROM using RSD lite and Fastboot

So I have recently Flashed ARCTIC ROM and it all went bad, was stuck and bootloop and forgot to flash CWM recovery, so only had access to Motorola Recovery. After lots of research and time I managed to fix my phone here is how:
PLEAS BE AWARE: This is for GSM Droid Razr XT910, if you are using a CDMA Razr, you will need a different Fastboot file.
Download this fastboot file on your pc & extract the file:
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts...stboot.xml.zip
Then download RSD lite from here & install it on your pc:
https://www.box.com/...6p1ll45svunalr3
Install moto drivers on your pc here it is:
https://www.box.com/...it95qz8yjunedrg
*********************
Now open the Rsd lite on pc, browse an XML file that you extracted from fastboot files and put it on rsd,
Turn of your phone, click on vol- vol+ & power buttons at the same time, now you entered to boot menu,
Select Ap fastboot (vol- to scroll & vol+ to select)
Then connect phone to the pc via usb port,
When you see "connected" in rsd lite, click on start key on rsd & be patient to flashing fastboot files, it takes about 7-8 minutes. If you get an error, it means you have the wrong fastboot file, you must have the original fastboot file you had on your phone, ie UK must flash UK fastboot, EU must flash EU version etc.
Thank you zeidof for all your help, who told me how to do this!

How about mac users? I think the do not need drivers right?
If you use safestrap recovery you have a better chance of not bricking your phone. It works awesome and recommend to anybody who flashes roms a lot. Im not too sure if it works for xt910, but it works awesome on my xt912.

[Q] Help Baseband RAZR

Please, iam from Brazil.
My RAZR, no Baseband and no IMEI.
how i can flash other Baseband?
Hi!
This is for ICS, I do not know if this works the same way in GB, I hope someone answers this.
To flash a new baseband:
- Download some ICS ROM from the same region of your device, and extract the "radio.img" of downloaded files.
- Connect on PC using the USB cable.
- Put your Razr in fastboot mode.
- With the Terminal, go to the directory where is the "radio.img"
- Enter the command:
fastboot flash radio radio.img

[Q] GSM RAZR - bricked after the OTA

Hello guys,
Let me preface this with the fact that I have been searching this forum for the past hour and could not find anything pertinent for my situation.
I've updated to the latest GSM OTA (the Vodafone EU one) and all was great, decided to reboot my phone and got into a bootloop. I don't have a recovery to boot from and going to be short on battery soon.
The way I see it, I'm stuck with a bricked phone until the RSD package for the OTA is released. Is that correct? am I missing anything?
Can anyone point me to a relevant thread where I can catch a break?
Cheers!

Sent from my XT910 using xda premium
Please tell us how you fixed this, i have same problem but i already screwed it up more by trying to flash back to ics after i was stuck at boot on JB vodafone. Now i have bricked phone and i wait for Fastboot files, which we dont know when will come out
Got the same problem here
Alright, here goes.
I am not responsible to whatever happens to your phones. This process is described for the Vodafone OTA.
Also, you will lose root
I'm guessing your phones are in a constant bootloop right about now. If they are, you have to make sure you still have some battery left so that on AP Fastboot it shows battery OK. If you don't, follow the guides here to get more juice or get a 'factory cable' and charge your phone.
To download:
- Fastboot from here: http://dfiles.eu/files/bih3tmg7b
- OTA kernel (here: http://d-h.st/xat )
- The whole OTA here ON YOUR SDCARD
- original ICS RSD Image here
Process:
Extract the fastboot somewhere accessible like c:/fastboot
Extract the kernel and the original ICS files on your desktop
Copy the OTA kernel (boot_3.0.8-g7198280) to your c:/fastboot folder
Copy 'system_signed' from the original ICS archive to your fastboot folder
Open the command prompt (search for cmd.exe in your programs)
Navigate to c:/fastboot (use "cd .." to excape a folder and "dir" to list the files in a folder )
Go to AP fastboot on your phpne and do the following from the command prompt:
fastboot flash boot boot_3.0.8-g7198280.img
fastboot flash system system_signed
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now restart your phone and enter recovery the normal way volUp+volDown + power button then select Recovery, then volUp+volDown to see the menu.
Do a factory reset
Flash the OTA (that should be on your card)
Reboot
Ta-da!
If after the whole process you get a flash failure when rebooting your phone, use this guide to get rid of that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1634223
If this helped you, please show the 'Thanks' button some love. Also, post here if you run into trouble, DO NOT PM!

Navigate to c:/fastboot (use "cd .." to excape a folder and "dir" to list the files in a folder )
Go to AP fastboot on your phpne and do the following from the command prompt:
fastboot flash boot boot_3.0.8-g7198280.img
fastboot flash system system_signed
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now restart your phone and enter recovery the normal way volUp+volDown + power button then select Recovery, then volUp+volDown to see the menu.
Do a factory reset
Flash the OTA (that should be on your card)
Reboot
Ta-da!
If after the whole process you get a flash failure when rebooting your phone, use this guide to get rid of that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1634223

Preflash validating failure
when writing the system_signed to the device

That's weird. Prolly the flash was messed up somewhere..
Try this before "fastboot flash boot boot_3.0.8-g7198280.img":
extract recovery_signed and allow-mbmloader-flashing-mbm.bin from the ICS folder and put them into the fastboot folder
do this
fastboot flash mbm allow-mbmloader-flashing-mbm.bin
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed
Let me know if that works

Well i give you thumbs up and thanks for you helping hand, however it still doesnt work gives preflashvalidation failure on system_signed flashing. If you have some more ideas it would be really nicce to try, meanwhile i think we will just have to wait for fastboot files. Verizon version for xt912 got FF already maybe we will get ours in a week or so.
Use this method .. Hsd pilot again nailed it to save our asses ..
It should definatly unbrick your mobile because i tried it on same version and i am back on jellybean ..

For your information, I managed to unbrick my phone. Problem seemed to be my CID.IMG. After erasing it, I could enter recovery and installl JB from ext-sdcard. Now I have to use BP Tools tools to boot, because as soon as I restore CID, the device doesn't boot.
Really strange, because my phone is actually from Europe (d/a/ch), Switzerland. Maybe it's due to the fact that I switched to the chinese JB Ota leak before updating to the EU leak.

keep getting a unknown error trying to flash the firmware zip. can i just do a fastboot flash radio radio.img ? im s-off
should be able to just extract the radio.img for the zip and flash it.
but fastboot reboot oem
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip should work i just flashed the exact same firmware.zip
now if some one took replaced the updater script so it doesnt look for verification would it install correct on a completely stock 2.04 ota rooted and unlocked?

i had 2 bars 4g but after radio update. the 4g stopped and data took awhile to start up on 3g .__.
Can I just flash it over newt sense 5
do you think this will help us GSM users? preferably at&t?
There's only easier way to flashing radios? What ever happened to naming the image pg and boot into hoot?

As far as I know there is only to ways to flash radio as a .zip or as a .img
