Will it work, I am currently downloading the RUU from the HTC site. I'm not too sharp on GSM vs CDMA ROMs, even more so, the substructure of android and how it works along with the radio. I haven't been able to find any other legitimate links to ICS for this phone and I would like to run ICS. There is a thread on here about it, but the link to the ROM only downloads partially and its pretty aggrivating. Thank you.
Yeah I would like to know the same thing. I DID run across something earlier saying that ICS was coming to Rhyme sometime in July-Aug

Okay so i want to update to to the latest radio version, the leaked gingerbread one, but ive heard a lot about random reboots and other problems. what are peoples experience with those? also, im running the latest virusrom and waiting for the new update thats been promised is the radio gonna affect whatever rom im running? and if i change roms could it change the radio or are they totally separate things?
PS- if the leaked radio is too glitchy then which should i update too? (im still on stock 1.16.00.0223r) ive looked through -->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13093559&postcount=1 but im really confused. the first looks the newest but ive heard people complain about glitches too. id really rather not flash each one at a time if i dont have too :/ no 4g in my area so its no big deal.
Also thinking about going to das bamf 2.x beta if virusrom isnt updated soon. comments? feedback? anyone try it?
I would look for the radio list and download the 2nd one down on the list, it is a combo of the new with the old and it seems to be working for most.
I ended up going with the first on the list. the newest cdma and lte. no problems so far. Getting better service at school too
I'm on latest MR1 radio with CM7 and it's working fine. Was told by Slayher not to use GB radio yet. If you want to use the GB leak though, you must use leaked radio.
Having trouble with the Radio for GB... i cannot get the phone past the HTC quietly brilliant, I have tried taking the battery out and then restarting but when I boot into recovery it tries to update the radio and then restarts to the quietly brilliant screen
I'm on the GB radio and Gingeritis and I'm having no reboot problems so far.
how do you like gingeritis? ive been considering switching to it or another gb rom but i was hoping to get one with sense 3.0 that new lockscreen looks sweeeeet. does that one have it?
I've been running a GB ROM for about a month now and the crappy audio when recording video and no skype are making me jump ship. I'm headed back to Froyo! I will say that I will miss the sense 3.0 features though!
Question is...it looks like there has been a couple new radios that have come out since I have switched. I see there is a MR2 and MR2.5, but it says it is the RUU and is a 400+ MB file. I don't want that, right?
I went to the radio thread but I'm not sure if that has the newest radios. Can anyone tell me what the newest radio numbers are that arn't with the RUU's?

The MR2 and MR2.5 radios will only work with Team Eaton Froyo Rom from here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1120134
If you want to go back to one of the other Froyo roms then you'll have to use any of the radios from the link below that you choose EXCEPT for the Alpha Gingerbread one.

Great, thanks!
I am about to flash this ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1312201
I'm wondering which radios will work with this. I'm new to rooting/flashing, fyi. I've been studying immensely.
The reason I'm wanting to flash a new rom is because I'm running cyano 7.1.1 and my bluetooth piece will no longer connect to my phone. Would you folks recommend I flash a new rom? Or only new radios?
The current radios I have are: 1.48.00.0817r AND 0.01.78.0802w_3.
ALSO, if I may ask, what is the difference between RUU and Radios? How are the two linked?
Thank you very much.
Radios really aren't rom specific. more like whatever works best on your phone.. sometimes updating to a radio that works or fixes someone else's problem isn't necessarily going to fix someone else's . If that makes sense.. I honestly haven't changed radios since I first rooted in 2011..
Really what works great for one person might not work great for you. Most you can do is just try different radios over s few days and come up with your own conclusions of what worked better on your phone.
reestipt reactions.
RUU = rom upgrade utility. Basically usually the stock roms from HTC.
The radio usually affects signal quality and speed.
Hey guys, I dont post here much but i did some searches and read the FAQs and cant find any info on my questions.
Im wondering about known bugs.
Is there a problem with the bluetooth audio streaming profile? My legend streamed perfectly over BT to my car sterio but Amaze wont.
Lately it does not switch to wifi automatically when I get home. bug?
Has HTC released ANY updates in the last year, b/c Mobilicity in Canada has not given me ONE update.
I found in the FAQ that, when you record video, the audio on the video sucks, all my concert videos suck
the keyboard seems slow and flakey, swiftkey is waaayyy better
So im thinking if selling and getting a nexus 4.
Will a root and rom install fix issues and make it a better phone. Any inut appreciated. I think Ill stick with nexus branded devices in the future. Not getting any updates is unacceptable.
thanks.
so, seems there is a BT issue for audio streaming

first of all its hard to reply to any of what you stated, because the only thing ive been able to figure out is that you have the Mobilicity HTC Amaze... are you running (STOCK)? is your phone unlocked/rooted/s-on(off)/? are you currently on GB or ICS i don't think there's an offficial JB release for the amaze as far as i know... unless you flash a custom JB rom... lets see what else am i missing.. what version Hboot/Radio are you on, and also not everyones phone works the same way, so the 'in general term" is vague lol

so your phones practically out of the box then? are they any real issues with stock roms though.. i mean besides compatibility with the other actually devices that your using with it.. your car etc... i would suggest unlocking the bootloader, and flashing a few roms to try something new and different.. but be warned... once you flash a rom you'll never stop wanting to flash rom

thanks yea, new phone. i guess ill try rooting and flashing,
i was hoping it wouldnt get to this point. I mean i love 'hacking' hardware to put on new firmware and stuff but not when its a huge hassle and could destroy my unit.
but i guess i have not choice, i know ill like it when i get off my ass and root it ,
thanks
I dug on htcdev site several times looking for it, but could only find Sprint releases, until a few days ago I searched it again.
I found something labelled correctly but it downloaded a 3.4 kernel for the wrong device (villec) instead of the last release of the VM kernel for shooter.
I hassled em through the contact form and they actually said they should have it ready to release in 4-6 weeks, within two emails and two days.
Beats the h3ll out of Polaroid's responsiveness, who I've been hassling for two years now after kernel source for a tablet.
Does it differ from the sprint version? I thought they were the same, just rebranded. They have the same bootloader version (now), roms work on both devices (which means the kernel in the rom works on both devices).
Not trying to hassle you, I'm really just curious. I just thought they were the same?...
My Optimus V has an Optimus S board but slightly different firmware.
The firmware can be cross flashed including radios, and both function fine on sprint software.
The LG kernel code for both differs slightly. Not enough to obviously break anything.
I'm curious, too, about whether there are similar little differences on this device.
I have stock radio but my hboot is unrecoverable since it was over written on S-off.
It was Virgin 1.58, I can only find Sprint 1.58.
My 2.95.652.5 710RD is newer than the flashables I've found, too.
And I thought it was cruddy that HTC had a link to a new kernel source but it downloaded the wrong one.
I was surprised when they offered to cough up the real thing with zero resistance.
I'm almost 100% certain that the hboot 1.58.0000 is the exact same between Sprint and VM models.
Either way, you're in luck!! I have a thread here: http://androidforums.com/cdma-evo-3d-all-things-root/648902-radios-hboot-firmware-all-downloads.html
with all of the firmware downloads.
Post 3 (last link I believe) has the ota for VM with hboot 1.58!! Now get that baby fixed.

The update with hboot 1.58 is only available ota. The latest ruu for the evo v is hboot 1.57 I think it is linked in Brian's thread and if you run it and run the system update twice you'll get hboot 1.58
Hope that made sense...I'm not sure of software versions....
Sent from my Evo V 4G using XDA Free mobile app
figured i might as well update the thread.
never got any further communication from htc on this topic, and all I've gotten out of them about the evo 3d since is that it's not supported any longer, and won't be.
asked about the 3vo just for curiosity after they assured me during live chat that my virgin mobile desire 816 was going to get an update to official marshmallow (dirty liars regarding both devices.)
