does anyone have just the new ota radio in phwhatever.zip format i want the new radio but dont really want to update my mainver and have to mess with that and i use custom roms so i dont need the firmware. thanks in advance
As far as I know you can only get the new radios from actually accepting the OTA update. Correct me if I'm wrong anyone...

Correct, unless he's one of the lucky ones with an s-off phone.

You can use this which is the same as getting the OTA. You need to backup, relock, flash, unlock and restore your backup and kernel

Not the final but another leak with a new radio. Hopefully this means the OTA is close and im praying we finally get some custom kernels. Wish we could flash the radio seperatly though.

You CAN flash the radio separately... but I believe you still need to lock the phone first and flash the firmware.img file inside a PH98IMG.zip at HBOOT.

I thought we needed s-off to do that? When the OTA comes i will relock and update then flash a rooted custom rom lol.t

no point since the radio hasn't changed only a newer build.

No.. I believe you need S-OFF to flash it from recovery, or to flash it without first re-locking your phone and doing it from HBOOT.
Can we RUU back if there are issues with this build?
Im not updating until this goes final but how do we relock the device? I assume after we upgrade we can unlock again?

You appear to be correct... Even though it does say it includes new radios in the original post, the screenshot clearly shows the same radio versions that I currently have on my phone after updating the radio with con's PH98IMG.zip from the last OTA..

Yes, you would just have to go through the procedure at HTC dev again to unlock.
to relock in fast boot at a command prompt fastboot oem lock.
and that will relock it .

yep I figured they wouldn't release ever since they announced the one series of phones.
we will not see sense 4.0 because of the HTC One Series phones.
Once those are released, we have a ten fold better chance at seeing sense 4.0..Officially..
we will be getting sense 4.0 as a ROM that's stable and nice, IMO, soon.
So the phone has to be stock, not unlocked..and I can install ics that easy? Any riskz?

This is my understanding as well. S-Off is just a "bonus". All other stuff can be done through Fastboot is my belief.

That's what htc said all current phones that get ics will have. Only one series gets 4.0.

Just to let u guys know the screenshot is incorrect for whatever reason. I updated to the new leak and it does have new radios. I don't know how to post a screenshot but the baseband version now shows 1.22.10.0310r, 1.22.10.0308r. Also, new PRI version is 1.16_002, 2.07_002.

I completely dissagree.
as unlocked is great, as we have root.
s-off is desirebale, and this is why,
with s-off, you can flash radio's in hboot, you can't do that with s-on, you must install the OTA, RUU.
but I do agree that unlocking us is a very good thing, but s-off does have many more benefits.
with s-off we could flash the new ICS firmware, and if you didn't like it flash back to GB OTA.
withs-on, if you flash that "leak" firmware, (or any other firmware, radio,hboot) you are now stuck on them.
The main things I miss from having an s-off phone was these,
1) flashing anything and everything I wanted, I could accept OTA, flash hboots, flash radios, whatever I wanted.
this was thanks to the XTC clip and having s-off.
i miss s-off.

Has there been any issues with this update? I heard that apps to sd card wasn't working and MMS was having issues sending. Anybody know for sure?

Thanks for clarifying this. So what you are saying is even with the MainVer "fix" (setting to low) we can't flash a GB RUU after we flash an ICS RUU?
If so then I was misinformed or interpreted my research improperly. I was under the impression that we could still do whatever we wanted even though doing so might require additional steps.
TIA
Edit: Apparently this is looking bleak. Doesn't appear as if you can downgrade the RUU. This was apparently tried unsuccessfully as discussed in the Scott's Rom thread. Really sucks and is a great reason why S-off is needed. Not that you would want to downgrade but this is MY phone dammit'.
Edit 2: Good News. Scrosler just flashed back to a GB Rom and had no issues other then the "SD Card" issue which he stated was an "easy" fix. This still doesn't allow for a radio downgrade but apparently the new radios are still compatible with the GB ROM's. LINK
I'm just seeing how many people are affected by this if they lost their 4G connection and their phone refuses to connect to any 4G or it drops after a minute after connecting?
Option A:
Flash stock recovery (Download Here) and do a factory reset in HBOOT.
Option B:
Now Flash any RUU, GB or ICS. LEAVE EVERYTHING STOCK!. Don't flash anything yet! Now in HBOOT, do a factory reset. Do not factory reset inside of recovery! Thank you. And do not mix hboots and radios

I was able to get my 4G back up after flashing the original RUU_Vigor_VERIZON_WWE_1.02.605.6_Radio_RS_0.95.00.1013r_3161E_9K_NV_8k_1.12_9k_1.83_V_APT_release_221502_signed

yes, the old HBOOT and the New Radios don't work well together. Go back to the GB OTA Radios and it will be solved.
I'm on the latest ICS leak with the newest HBOOT and newest Radios HBOOT 2.21
For those with over heating issues and 4G not stable here is what I did to fix my phone running Newts XxX Sense 4 RC 2.1 Rom:
I flashed the ENG HBOOT, then the old firmware patch as it is required for your ICS rom to work after flashing the ENG HBOOT.
Link to where I downloaded the ENG HBOOT and Old Firmware Patch:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1614366
After I flashed the GB Radios from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1612555
Now my phone is averaging 90-95 degrees Fahrenheit when not charging and the rom is running so much better and I have 4G back and its stable as is WiFi and 3G. So it looks like once you have S-Off this is the solution by flashing the ENG HBOOT and the old firmware patch. The overheating issues everyone is having with the ICS Radios is fixed with downgrading the radios back to GB. Hope this helps

Then you should be fine. But if you just installed "RUU_Vigor_VERIZON_WWE_1.02.605.6_Radio_RS_0.95.00. 1013r_3161E_9K_NV_8k_1.12_9k_1.83_V_APT_release_22 1502_signed" then you're actually on the latest GB HBOOT and Radios, not the ICS leak... In which case you should also now be fine. Its when mixing HBOOT 2.10/2.11 with the latest ICS Leak Radios that you have the problem
you originally described in your first post with regards to 4G connectivity.
I have not installed HBOOT 2.21 and tried them without the old radios yet - but I don't think it would work well either.

Yes It was working with that first RUU. but then I flashed the leaked RUU and now just 3G
EDIT: But I don't get this. 4G was working this morning then I changed the radio and then back and now 4G works no where besides on the GB RUU

You must still be on HBOOT 2.11 somehow. Can you boot into the bootloader and verify the HBOOT version number?

Craziness! I suppose its not beyond the realm of possibility that 4G is having issues in your area...
Can't think of any other issue - unless its literally something that just requires a full wipe to fix. If you can make a nandroid backup, it may be worthwhile to do a wipe and see if that fixes it.

Yeah. My friend has the Charge and her 4G is up. So IDK. I just flashed the GB RUU again and 4G is up and now flashing the Leaked ICS ruu but I'm going to flash it twice
Will the GB radio work on the 2.21 HBOOT possibly?

Yeah I just went through all possible combinations of HBOOT 2.10, 2.11 and all radios... but I still haven't tried HBOOT 2.21 yet. Pretty much all of the combinations I tried worked fine unless it involved the latest ICS leaked radios with any non ICS leak HBOOT, in which case it didn't work well or at all.

where'd you get the 2.21 hboot? I'm with a 4g issue as well since I'm on ics 3.x firmware on CR dev edition with 2.x gb radios on 2.11 hboot
Ive read a lot of threads, comments, posts but still unclear
i have an evo on 1.13.651.1 hboot 1.2 rooted and lazypanda s-off but ive reads that to install a rom i need to update the radios and update the firmware and that i need to relock the hboot and run ruu
can someone help me thanks
You don't need to update anything, I'm s-on and running the latest venom without any issues. Being s-off gives you the advantage of flashing the firmware directly, if you want to update just look for the firmware updates in android development

nice I appreciate the help
I'm not new to installing roms just new to the EVO LTE and I don't wanna mess it up
I've installed every single rom to my OG EVO and 3D but I want to be careful on this one
It's always better to be safe and get the info ahead of time then to rush in and end up another help thread in an unusually high number of strikingly similar threads that seem to have really reared lately. I guess more and more people are upgrading to the lte and are too confident to bother with learning the phone first. The majority seem to say I had xx phone and I flashed all the time blah blah blah. More people need to look up all the possible issues and solutions before jumping in.

If you want to it's really easy. The firmware update includes all of that. Just change the name to PJ75IMG.zip, put it on your SD card, and it will automatically install when start the bootloader. Then make sure to delete it off your sd card.

Yes, update your frimware and radios to run MeanRom. You will have a better experience. Those that don't have all kinds of problems with wifi and data not connecting. HTC came our with a radio update for a reason, the original released sucked ass!!!! The latest version of the radios will make your phone run great. Big Daddy responded to you with a link for the download to update the firmware and radios. Please do this, so you won't end up with the rest of the people constantly complaining that this doesn't work or that doesn't work. The new firmware bits, PRI, and radios solved 90% of the problems that people that didn't update have.
UPDATE!!! UPDATE!!!! UPDATE!!!!
You're S-OFF so do it already.
Tanks I've been running meanrom for 4 days and no problems yet which is good but I will do so as soon as I get a chance

So I like others are having some issues with signal issues ever since I applied the updated radio from HTC. I want to downgrade to see if this gets better. I'm on CM and rooted so I am able to do whatever I need. Is there a way to downgrade besides doing RUU back to stock?
