I am not responsible for the things you do to your phone.
I no longer have this phone. With that being said, I will still keep these links up. If for some reason they don't work, I WILL NOT be updating them. If you need them or wish to redistribute them, go for it and grab them while they are still here.
It was a nice phone while it lasted, but after 6 replacements I moved on to something better.
This DOES NOT unlock your bootloader, but will update to 2.3.5 on the already unlocked phones. Sorry to the folks that are locked with the 2.3.5 update. Hopefully something soon happens for you.
This is stock 2.3.5 WITH the updated kernel. Updated baseband as well, in a separate .zip of course.

Thanks to samcripp here at XDA and his Fruit Cake Maker, I have a CWM flashable .zip for you. This is stock 2.3.5 WITH the updated kernel. I still haven't figured out how to update the baseband though

Flashing this will revert your recovery to the stock recovery BUT will keep you unlocked
Re-install your custom recovery according to this guide-http://www.teamuscellular.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=105&t=1221
Also, I have noticed that after every boot it re-installs the stock recovery. To fix this, use a root file explorer(I use Root Explorer) and go into /system/etc and delete the file "install-recovery.sh"

I think if motorola would make it optional as well as add at least more than 2 points of multitouch this would help gaming. There are several games that can use more than 2 touch points.
Joker, with it disabled is there no way to adjust it?
Probably, but youre screen has to be perfectly clean all the time.

As far as i know, it's rom specific. Only problem is the result of your efforts is a flashable zip compatible with CWM. So you'll need to be unlocked and rooted. But you'll still be able to stay on stock rom and make these changes so it won't affect the way your phone works in any way except of course, lack of 4gees. But honestly if youre gonna go that far might as well just install custom roms. So ya know, it's a decision youll have to make.

your best method is use the UOT Kitchen http://uot.dakra.lt/ you make the mods you want for your phone and upload the files it tells you. It does the work for you then you reinstall them.
Its not simple but then its not real complicated either just make backups of whatever you do

Nah, cause you are replacing vital files. Normally you would, say, delete systemui.apk and replace it with the modified version with a file manager. Deleting systemui will crash the phone. That's why it must be changed either by throwing the modified files into the rom zip before flashing. Or by flashing the theme zip after rom installation.

Ninjamorph will let you extract the framework-res and SystemUI right on your phone. Problem is putting back the SystemUI via Ninjamorph will cause a bootloop. There may be a workaround for this but I never spent any time trying to figure it out. The app used to work great on the ogEVO but that was a lot easier to theme than the Photon in my opinion.
Hey guys, I have a radio related question.
I'm running [SP]Jester and Liquids ROM. (Found in Newsworthy Post)
I can't seem to hold a signal.
It says 3G but its grey, rather than lit up in blue and things either load slowly or not at all.
If I turn on Wi-Fi, the Wi-Fi bars light up blue and so do the 3G bars... but it goes back grey when I turn Wi-Fi back off.
I'm running the OTA radio that is recommended in the OP, which is the 2.11.605.19 radio.
Also, I've checked my settings and mobile data is turned on.
Any help, pretty please with a beard and stache on top?
Sent from my Thunderbolt using xda premium
Update, it dropped to 1x and lit up in blue. Now its up to 3G lit up in blue.
Wtf?

Does your area have regular signal issues?
I'm not sure if they ate related but I was messing with some toggles and somehow switched my phone to cdma only mode. I just went into the 4g toggle app and switched it back to lte/cdma auto prl and that got me back to 4g.

Flash the ROM first.
If your signal isn't affected after flashing a new ROM, there is usually no need to flash another radio.
Is the baseband version 1.49.00.0406w_1, 0.01.79.0331w_1?
What ROM are you running?
Yeah, that's the baseband version I have. I'm running liquid ics know mr2v7. My signal has been ok today, but I have noticed quite a few data drops, and times where the icon says I have data, but no app can get online...

That's exactly what I am experiencing.
Also that is the 2.11.605.19 radio that has been tested with this, so I don't THINK any other radio will be worth trying.
Some people have had better luck running this ROM with the combo radio found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1864157
I have yet to try the combo radio though since I haven't updated to the newest release for this ROM. I'm still running the public test... just too lazy to reset my settings right now. Lol.
If you are going to try out the combo radio, remember to take the current radio off of the root of your SD card before flashing to the new one. Either just delete it right then and there from the root, or move it into another folder off of the root.
Also, if you do try it out, let me know how it comes out for you.
Actually, if you've NEVER flashed a radio before, you most likely won't have a radio (PG05IMG.zip) file on the root of your SD card.
But if for whatever reason you do, move that file somewhere else and off of the root.
Download the new one and place it on the root.
Rename that file to PG05IMG.zip
Turn off your device.
Hold volume down and power until the bootloader loads up.
It should automatically scan for updates.
It will prompt you that there is an update.
Press volume up to update.
DO NOT POWER OFF THE DEVICE UNTIL THE UPDATE HAS COMPLETED!!
Once it has completed successfully, reboot your device and enjoy you're new radio.

Thanks! I was just about to post that I didn't have the zip file on my sd card. My battery is about to go, so I will try this tomorrow!

No problem.
Let me know how the combo radio works for you.
If the combo radio doesn't work as well as the current radio you have now, you can always revert back to it.
The current radio you're running is found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1605557
Just follow the same steps that I gave you above.
Only difference is that you WILL have a PG05IMG.zip file on the root of your SD.
Just be sure to move it into another location that is off of the root before you change radios again.
Then follow the steps to flashing a radio that I gave you in the above post.
Good luck!

At the first few replies: I had the same issues on .19, the combo leak fixed it all but takes a while to first acquire a signal. It's solid after that.
Finally broke down and bought this app. Price tag is a little high considering you can get all the separate applications free, but not all under one roof. But that brings me to my question.
Have you or anyone else you heard of had issues with any of the programs in rom toolbox? Ad blocker has been a little inconsistent for me. Know he has been working on it though.
Does the boot screen changer work? Had any issues with font changer? Just want to know before I run into the same thing. Some of it is a little dangerous to run without being optimized for the phone. Especially the EVO LTE.
Any info would be appreciated. Please share any positive / negative effects you've had. Thanks!
It all works for me.. Some things such as the status bar icon installer might look a little goofy on Sense ROMs(I'm on cyanogemmod so I haven't tried it) but everything else should work. Its all mostly fundamental android tools that should work on any phone, EVO, GS3, or otherwise.

Which ROM are you running? I haven't tried it on a Sense ROM so I can't say for sure but that's all I can think of that might interfere with it. The tool basically just takes the animation and puts it into the right folder in the root of your phone.
I know on my old Hero it was stored a little different on some ROMs so that some boot animations with sounds and stuff caused issues.
Point is, its probably ROM based, not hboot related.
Edit: If you check the boot animation installer settings you can change the target of where its installing the animation. If you can find out where its installed on your ROM there's no reason for it not to work as long as you're rooted.
Edit#2: If on a sense ROM change the destination to /system/customize/resource/
And then change from bootanimation.zip to *scratch that, read post below for the right .zip name*
No guarantees it'll work but it looks like that's where its stored on a Stock w Goodies ROM I have on my SD card. I took the bootanimation from it and installed it on my paranoid android ROM and it worked so it should work the other way around.

Boot animations just require root, and you have to tell rom toolbox the path/filename of the boot animation zip that the rom is looking for.
For sense-based roms on evo lte, that is
/system/customize/resource/SPC_bootanimation.zip
That filename is actually mutable. It's defined in /system/customize/CID/default.xml
So go into rom toolbox, boot animations. Then hit menu, Install Locations.
Common locations: "HTC EVO 4G"
That loads the other two settings with defaults that are closest to correct. Directory is correct, and you only have to modify the filename slightly from bootanimation.zip to SPC_bootanimation.zip
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Basically, rom toolbox could read the correct values right out of default.xml. I don't know why it doesn't. Maybe the path/name of default.xml itself isn't consistent on all devices or maybe he just didn't think of it yet.

I have been using this since it first came out, bought it back on my OG EVO. It has been loads of help, and is nice to have everything under one hood.
With the given ok from danutzz, the originator of turboprop (which this is based off of), comes GSM Auto-Script. What this does is sed out the ril/network values in build.prop, replaces them and creates a backup of build.prop. Also extracts/overwrites apns-conf.xml. This of course will ONLY WORK PROPERLY on an AOSP rom.
Enjoy!
PS: The creator of the apns-conf.xml please come forward as I am unsure of whom it is.
The creator has been found! Thank you siulmagic!!
PLEASE ONLY RUN THIS AMON -RA, Have not tested this on any other recovery!
Changelog:
v2
Re-built edify script using specific file extracts instead of directory extracts.
v1
Initial release
Awesome to see this posted .
Special thanks to Neo for providing us with the ril properties to change.
Credit to siulmagic for the original find.
Also, I've used this on twrp 2.3.2.3. The newer versions didn't work.

I don't believe these changes will wipe data, but they do need to be done on a fresh install in order to pickup the new apns and ril settings. From what I can gather, the ril changes basically just force the phone to boot into gsm by default. Thus the phone will be using any gsm carrier apns by default. I don't know about "switching back" to cdma afterword as I don't use a cdma network anymore, but I don't think that's how it works.
Anyone who has a better idea on how the network settings work please feel free to correct me if any of my assumptions are wrong.

Thanks for the info. Mind sharing what carrier you are using and what kind of connection you have? We are able to get HSDPA+ with our radios, right?

I'm on tmobile. I can only pick up edge network, but with some radio edits found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32331786, you can enable hspa with att towers. So far, no luck with tmobile. That might change once they refarm their spectrum, but I'm not in one of those areas to test.

Totally didn't see this post till just now.. Nan backup will definitely get you back to cdma/lte.
Edited to make sense.. Lol

Tested this with infection and it doesn't seem to be working as expected. I'll try to troubleshoot, but it added an extra etc folder to the root directory (not system). Also, it didn't update the build prop. Tried on twrp 2.3.2.3 (working before) and 2.4 and no luck.
I rebuilt the rom zip adding in the prop edits and the apn xml pre-flash and that all worked. Seems like cm10.1 doesn't like anything being flashed before booting. It just kept giving me system crashes.

I will rebuild it without using the symlink to etc.

I'll do it once I get home . Hour or so probably. Maybe less.

Just tested it. Seemed to sort of work. It was searching for a sim but said I didn't have one installed. Adding apns is a no go, but I suspect from reading, if I understand correctly, its supposed to be that way.
Does not seem to work with Infection rom yet. Was the issue fixed in v2 ? Does not even show the Cyanogen Mod boot logo - just a plain black screen
i hope someone can get gsm working for infection, as its my only way to use the phone.
but anyways keep up the good work guys!

Ive got a feeling those will need hacked with a build specific patch.
No go on v2 so far. Snuzzo and I are still bouncing ideas off each other for it.

I may be a bit off the mark here but on the other roms when GSM is enabled you can navigate to Settings>Data Usage and toggle Mobile Data on/off.. With Infection when the patch is run it doesn't even show the Mobile Data toggle. Don't know if it really means anything but I've noticed this...
Well we know what's not working. Just no idea WHY it's not working. Neo will have a patch out soon, I'm sure. Hopefully we can figure out what's wrong with this and 10.1. Works fine on all other AOSP roms. Both ics and jb. Something to do with 4.2.1 breaks it.
