hope this helps in rooting 2.leak or this version for that matter..
I'm going to get my new eris at 1.5 tomorrow so I will try it out anyway. I'll post back with my results
Wouldn't it be safe to flash any rom, if you have the recovery on an already rooted phone? That way you can just restore from a nandroid or BART backup if it doesn't work?

I had the 2.1 leak so I never got to root mine.
Anyone else try this? Difference vs the first leak? Can I install this over the first leak?

I just finished a few minutes ago it works fine the software number it different from the old leak and i haven't noticed any other differences. Also it installs fine over the old leak.
old 2.1 leak

new 2.1 leak
i40.tinypic.com/1zly6c7.png
google sign in error fixed. No gmail picture fix. Thats bout it.
Is it worth trying? I read it could be faster, any truth to it?
If you have 1.5 dont install it, install my rom or wait til someone better than I comes up with a rom based on 2.1 ota.
I have been using the leak since the first day it came out.
Has anyone tried to downgrade from this leak to 1.5?

step 2:
trying rooted 1.5 [FAIL] version is older
next step, try just 2.1 rooted version
Hi guys,
I tried searching for this. I am trying to find a stock 1.5 Rom to flash to my Sprint Hero. Does anyone know of a link to the ROM version of the 1.56 RUU. The Gumbo 1.5c I flashed still has some weird stuff on it. (wifi tether, Gumbo under status/build).
Unfortunately, I was one of the boneheads who used the 2.1 ROM Leak. I was able to follow posts on gaining root access again. However, I'd like a stock 1.5 if possible.
I know its impossible for me to use the 1.56 RUU due to the hboot being different.
Thanks so much.
wish I could help but this is the exact reason I wont touch an upgrade RUU untill its out officially.

He's asking for the 1.56 RUU Rom...that is the one that is officially on the phones (based on Cupcake, not Eclair).
I have a link to the RUU, but not one for just the ROM component.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=CDMA Hero ROMs
These are whats available, but all are tweaked to one extent or another. I think the only way to get a completely stock ROM is RUU....
As long as you are on windows: http://geekfor.me/new-release/fresh-kitchen-105/
Cook your own rom, select stock everything, and you'll have exactly what you need.

Hey all, jet wondering if anyone on here is running CyanogenMod 6 test 8 baseband 1.00.03.04.06 has seen their wireless radio error out. If I leave my phone alone, in the house, good wireless coverage I come back and I have no signal meter for wifi but the radio says its on but states "error" under wireless settings. Nothing major I just bounce the radio and she comes right up.
Thinking about upgrading the baseband and running the leaked ota 2.2 since the real ota is rumored to be a ***** to root. Open to suggestions if I should upgrade.
Thanks in advance

Im running the CM6 test 8 rom with the 1.x baseband and i have noticed a few wifi errors. Many times, my wifi will be on but not connected, so i just turn it off and back on. It doesent really bother me but I hope they fix this in the offical or next test update. As for upgrading your radio, I too have thought about it, but ill wait till the htc update to see which is better and if it could be rooted. I also really want the 720p video and the cool custom roms like skyraider that use it, but i think it would be better If i wait because It'll be a ***** to downgrade to the origional RUU. And then what If gingerbread comes out?

You know, that was my dilemma yesterday. I downloaded the lasted skyraider ROM and had a need to use the GPS which didn't work in the baseband. I just bit the bullet and downgraded it to 2.1 stock, installed the new basebad, rooted and applied skyraider's ROM. It took me 45 minutes. Downgrading is not as bad as you hear. Just make sure you are prepared. Make sure that your SD card is formated FAT 32 and the rest is easy. Good luck!
Update:
I unrooted, upgraded the baseband and installed the leaked 2.2 ota. It runs like a champ!

I'd like to use the new radio with my oem Donut. Is it as simple as taking the file from one of the update guides and flashing it in the traditional manner? I'm kind of noobish so I'm reluctant to try to take one piece of a Froyo update guide and flash the radio. I'm not really in the market for a sleek black paperweight.
I wouln't do it!
This has BAD IDEA written all over it please don't try this. That being said why not upgrade to the official FROYO? I know it's hard to fathom after seeing ECLAIR in action but it truly is a totally different and better experience.
QUESTION: What does DONUT have that you like so much?

SPEED. I tried the TMUS rom posted up here a few days ago and it was ok, much better than other Froyo ROMs I've tried, but still laggy compared to my oem androoted Donut.
it works with CM4 if you don't use the hboot.
does not work with CM6. look at my sig I made a flashable .zip file.

I'm scared to try this. Is this the radio that came with the T-MOUS Fro-Yo OTA? I wonder why there isn't a thread for it yet.

The hboot? Which hboot are you talking about? The first half of the ota update succeeded but the second half failed so I have the new SPL but not the new radio or OS.
The new radio does work with cm6, well cm6.1 rc1. I flashed it on my wife mt3g 3.5mm awhile ago, everything booted up just fine.

Cool, did you or she notice any improvements?
Yea i got to messed with it a little bit more, signal is pretty strong and stays constant, but that might vary from phone to phone, not much to say about the market since it was down a couple days back. Overall she is satisfied with it. Cant wait till it is ported to the 32b phones so we can take advantaged of the extra 10-15mb it frees up.

So I just flash this through recovery as I would any other zip file? Any idea if this is compatible with older roms? If I nandroid back to my oem 1.6 without rolling back to 23.02 will my phone explode? How about Eclair?
If I flash this is it just as easy to flash back to 23.02 if I need to for some reason?
Sorry for all the obsessive questions; I've never flashed a radio before so I don't know what it is that I don't know.

It worked for me, except it caused a bootloop because it's not compatible with the CM6 kernel, or at least ezterry's CM6 kernel. I had to flash back to 2.22.23.02.
If you're not using the oem t-mobile/android kernel, don't flash this radio.
I really want to know if this radio is compatible with oem Donut.
so uhh yeah, after being on stock froyo for a bit and them coming back to cyanogenmod i couldnt help notice the way wayy better reception and all that on froyo. and so i asked a question before about what does that and you guys said drivers and whatnot which im assuming is the "radio" that you all talk about in roms. so is there by any chance some way of getting this better radio on cyanogenmod? cheers
Just flash the latest radio and you're all set. I believe the latest is 7.13.35.05.

That radio is taken from the rom with Froyo released for Vodafone devices.
You probably have already installed it when you have flashed the latest OTA with Froyo. I'm not sure, but I don't think that installing CyanogenMod overwrites the radio installed by the stock rom.

actually now that ive taken a look at my screenshot of that froyo rom ive got in my sig (the one im talking about that i was trying with the amazing wifi reception and all that) the radio is actually 7.05 and that other number in front of it is an older version too. so does that mean the older versions are better or what? i get better wifi reception and all that on an older radio? anyways im sure you see my point, so now im confused lol

7.05? Or is it 7.13.35.05? If you do lurk around more and read through the radio update threads, some people already mentioned they have better reception on older radio. I can't verify that but the latest radio do make my reception better. Or you can try flashing a few radio update and see which has the best reception.
