Hey guys,
Fastboot is irritating me. Is there a way to flash a new radio to my g2 through terminal emulator instead of plugging into the computer usb?
Like this:
(renaming file to radio.img)
Then in terminal emulator
Su
Flash_image radio /sdcard/radio.img

Also, don't forget to delete the PC10IMG.zip off your SDcard after you flash it, so next time you go into your bootloader it doesn't look for the update again.
Also, you should make sure that you don't keep a bunch of files named PC10IMG.zip laying around. I'd recommend re-naming them for the proper radio they are until you intend to flash them.
Id say u better go doenload the pc10img from the radio thread in the dev section instead of just renaming the file u already got

A new radio isn't a cure-all. No matter what you do the towers in the area are going to be the same. I'd try a few and see what works best.

Hey guys
I'm currently using an older version of RA-hero. How do I upgrade to the new version (v1.7.0.1)?
ADB for some reason won't work properly with my laptop, is there an alternative way to upgrade my recovery rom?
Thanks,
Alex
edit: oops my bad, I thought I was posting under Q&A. Sorry!
Try using the update.zip posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7873924&postcount=1208
Have a look at BTDAGs guide linked in my signature, there should be step by step instructions using Terminal Emulator, failing that you can also try Flashrec but that doesn't work on all roms for some reason.
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
I've already got that ! Do I just flash it like I would do with a ROM? Or is there some other process?
... Oh, too late, the update.zip method posted above will be the easiest route to go.

Yep, just like a ROM.

Haha! Well, it might help if there was actually a question in your first post
But in presuming you're looking to root it, check the Development topics, lots of ROM's to choose from, guides in there to follow on step by step instructions on how to do it.
I would suggest reading through those first before asking questions though as many people ask the same questions
Yeah im familiar with roms ect but i just wanted to no if his model was compatible with visionary thanks for help dude also its branded tmobile so would i make a goldcatd before or after rooting to debrand

yep it will, before you flash a custom rom though, you need to check out the 2 s-off tools in the developent section (Radio & ENG) after you root, run both of thoes tools from your pc, you can then use rom manager to install clockworkmod recovery, then your free to install all the custom roms you want
After you install Clockwork, don't forget to take a backup of your T-Mobile ROM just in case anything happens you can flash it back to stock.
Yeah cool guys so
1. Root with visionary.
2.Permroot
3. S.off ENG
4. Install rom manager and install clockwork.
5. Flash rom?

You should get radio s-off as well as eng s-off ng

Then you can go on dev boards and learn about radios and things like that, but that is the stuff that can brick you're phone as my friend recently found out with his desire HD, but if you follow instructions and don't unplug half way through :L you should be fine!
I no about radios and roms im a desire user just needed help sorting my bros dhd for him

I am having horrible reception (1, 2, no bars, no service, emerg call only) and can never get 3G or H signal icons. I am constantly on EDGE. These problems are occurring at places where i usually have great reception. Whats the problem?

If you're rooted, then flash a custom radio. Find the thread in the dev section.

thats up to you to find out each radio works differently in other areas. Im assuming youre on the stock radio, your next best bet would be to try the panache radio. btw, MIUI is a rom not a radio. just flash each radio til you find the right one for you
Is there any way I can just put the zip onto my sd card and flash? Because the radio thread in dev says I need to put it into adb folder, and I have no idea how to use Android sdk...

...lol ok...
the Engineering bootloader, on the MT4G i think is 0.85.2007.
the Engineering bootloader gives you flashing rights, i.e changing the splash screen, radio, recovery image using adb... etc. i'd highly recommend it.
still no luck. are there any roms out there that I can flash that end up changing my radio in the process?

Nope, but learning how to use adb really isn't hard. I'd suggest reading trublue_drew's thread in the dev section called adb for dummies.

I would follow this tutorial if you're still unsure about flashing radios. It's a really simple and easy process, but you have to follow directions TO THE LETTER. Otherwise, you might end up with a fancy, expensive paperweight.
Howdy,
Could someone please point me to the latest radio files for the mytouch 3g slide? I swapped to CM7.2 this weekend and I want to make sure those are up to date as well.
Thanks!
here is a link to the latest ruu, check and see if your radio version is older.
if it is download it, extract the radio, flash via fastboot if you have soff
