I don't think we can update radios as of yet on hboot 1.5. That would require s-off.

You gotta relock run the 2.17 ruu the unlock ,flash recovery and superuser that's the only way

that sucks. Do yall know if it is worth updating to the latest radio.
It's is if you plan on flashing new roms plus the 2.17 update its a lot better running

I was on revolutionary and rooted and went back to s-on, not rooted, flashed the new RUU GB 2.11 but i'm not getting good 4g.
Can I now flash the MR2 radio thru hboot? If so how do I do it?
Thank you!
You are s-on? If so no you cannot flash radios.

There is no way to stay on 2.11 and get another radio with s-on then? TY.
You need to have s-off the flash a radio, my suggestion would be to get back your s-off and root and then flash your modem, also you can use stock and still be rooted/s off just need to download the rooted version of the ruu.
From xda, unless you have to take the phone in for service theirs no reason to go back to s on

Also the 802 radio has been great for me on 2.11 are you using that radio? It also vastly improves battery life

So I've been dying to try out the CM10 ROM but I found out the usual flashing doesn't work since I'm on the newest HBOOT, but if I flash an older rooted version of a stock ROM will it also put me on the older HBOOT so that I could flash it the usual way?

No, the ROM is separate from the bootloader. You can fastboot flash a kernel with the new hboot (which you'll need to do for cm10) by following the instructions in this thread:

There is currently no way to downgrade you hboot version.

You dont need the older H-boot, all you need to do is learn how to correctly flash a kernel with your h-boot.
There are many methods available
Ok, very noobish at the whole ROM/Kernel/Firmware thing even though I'm on my second ROM.
Currently running ViperRez 1.03, was running RezRom S4 v2.4 (Was my first custom ROM). I did the JuopunutBear method of S-off, rooting, etc.. My HBOOT is currently 2.11 which I have read is the GB version.. I have not had any issues to speak of with this HBOOT version.
So basically i want the latest Kernel by Joel (BAMF Vigor Kernel[3.0.46]). Can this be done on the 2.11 HBOOT?
And will my phone need to be completely wiped for an updated HBOOT install? I have seen that 2.27 is the latest version. Do I need it and what are my limitations/disadvantages of having 2.11? Thank guys.. you all rock!
If you run the latest ruu which is 4.03.605.02 it should update your hboot and radios but Im sure it will wipe your Rom and you'll have to reflash your recovery. And its not required to update to use joelz's kernal.

I don't recommend that. You should S-OFF before upgrading (unless you're extremely satisfied with being S-ON). Just run the RUU with the deivce in HBOOT (to escape your current predicament).
I have hboot 1.19 is that avle to be s-off i havent looked in a bit. And im on radio 1.12 when i try to run ruu since in running 3.15 jb build it wont let me ruu

none
You use rusty racun to get s-off, google it and you'll find it, but first run the PJ75IMG to get back to stock, then unlock the bootloader again and run rusty racun

I have an at&t version m8 on nV rls4. Radio is 1.14. Neither sunshine nor the other s-off method will work on my phone. I get the whelp error or thr "incompatible" error.
Is there a way to update my radio without flashing a stock rom and locking recovery first?
Love the rom. Download speeds are fair at best on lte which is why i want to update radio.

Flashing a radio.img? No.
What hboot version? It shipped with hboot 3.16, so unless you changed it, it should still be so (it looks like you haven't gotten the OTA update, as this would have updated your radio to 1.16). AFAIK, only the newer hboot versions are what is blocking firewater s-off method. I would try to flash the stock rooted ROM and try firewater again. AT&T variant with hboot 3.16 should have no issue with firewater; as this is how I got S-off. And the only difference I can see is your custom ROM. It wouldn't think a custom ROM would make a difference, but its worth a try.
The other option if you still can't S-off, is to accept the software 1.58 OTA update or flash the RUU. As already mentioned, it will update your radio to 1.16. But if experimenting with various radios is you goal, this isn't the solution.
Thank you. Yes i am 3.16 still. I will try your advice and report back.
