I have Radio ROM 2.25.11. I was wanting the Radio 2.37.11. Does anybody have it? If so is it the exe file. Do I need to reflash my ROM? Big Question is it worth it?

Download link for 2.37.11 ;-

Yes! its a exe file with its own RUU,just hook up the phone with pc and run the RUU in the Radio Rom,it'll start to flash,it'll hardly take a minute or so.
Well,regarding worth it !,it depends on the signal quality,if it improves the reception of signals and you get better reception then the 2.25.11 at present in your phone,then I wud say its worth it,there's no harm in trying.
G4
Is this G4 safe???
Radio-only ROMs can be flashed to G3 and G4 devices.

I am using Summiters old 2.26 ROM, and have to send back in the phone, so I want to flash it to the HTC Rom from the HTC site, but just wondered if that would have issues or not.
My IPL SPL is 2.24 and the HTC ROM is dated newer then mine.
Think I will run into problems?
You could always flash the original rom with the noid RUU if you run into anything. Just place the nk.nbf in the same directory. And might I suggest that you CID-relock your phone prior to sending it to a service center as that procedure usually voids the warranty.
Wao
Good info thanks, although I will admit to being a noob at this so should I re-lock the device, then run the htc rom?
Your advice on the nk.nbf is strictly based on the HTC rom not loading?
Regarding the relock, where can I find a relock tool? I remember ages ago downloading and running an app called lockwiz, is that right?

yeah, lokiwiz does the unlocking but if you didn't save the output file I don't know how you are going to re-lock. Doubt they will even check that as long as you have a stock rom on the device though, so you should be ok.
So Then...
The original thought should suffice, using the stock ROM from the HTC should load ok.
I am kinda in the same boat. I need to send my 8125 in for repair. I currently have Molski's ROM. I tried to go back to the ROM for my phone from Cingular and I am getting an error 296 Upgrade only. I have tried both Cingular ROM and get the same error.
Would the nk.nbf file pretain to me? If so where do I find it and how do I use it?
Sorry - I am a noobie to flashing the ROM's so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I believe this is one of the Original Shipped ROM from Cingular.

Hi to everyone,
Does anybody know the differences between IPL/SPL 2.21 and 2.26?
As I read in the Wiki section IPL/SPL are the bootloaders of the phone, like the BIOS of our CPU's nada I dont want to mess with that!
Why I'm asking this?...
My PPC is an O2 XDA MiniS AKU2 IPL/SPL 2.21 and want to install Faria's ROM.
I will have to CID-UNLOCK first.
There are 2 threads of cid unlocking:
1) One for AKU2 PPC (call from here THREAD 1)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=263116
2) and other for those who has older rom (call from here THREAD 2).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
I was going to follow the steps that are include in thread 1 wich recommends to downgrade your rom, cid unlock and then install your manufacturer ROM (mine has IPL/SPL 2.21).
But reading thread 2 I found that is recommendable to have IPL/SPL 2.26 to run cooked ROM's just like Faria's.
The author recommends to install T-Mobile ROM to have strong IPL/SPL 2.26.
Here comes my doubts:
1) Is really necessary upgrading from IPL/SPL 2.21 to 2.26?
2) Will T-Mobile ROM gonna work in my O2 XDA MiniS or is going to screw my pda?
The idea is to get IPL/SPL 2.26 and then flash Faria's ROM.
Sorry if it's a double post, but I really couldnt find the answer.
Thanks in advance,
Paulo

1) not really. But you DO need to flash A carrier rom after downgrading to 1.x to unlock. The reason for this is you need to get your phone back up to AKU2 or higher. The T-Mobile rom is the recommended rom as it has the latest version of the bootloaders.
2) if you CID unlock your phone it will. The whole point of CID unlocking is so that we can flash roms from sources other than our own carriers. Now flashing another carrier's rom or a custom rom you WILL have to set up your GPRS and MMS settings again, they are most definitely different than your carrier's by default, and most custom roms don't include this information as it is easy enough to get from your own provider and many people across many different providers use the roms. Faria has included as many as he has the files for in his rom.

I have a mini s and I used the Tmobile rom to get my IPL/SPL up to 2.26 with no problems. I figure there must be some good code behind the version numbers so why not upgrade? In my opinion since it was recomended by the guys in the know why not go for it.
I like the new 2.61 radio.

a) good -- Just follow all the steps and you will be successful (make sure your phone is a G3 if you aren't using a pay to unlock website)
b) , c) you only need to flash one of these. Once you are unlocked it doesn't matter which one, they will all get you to a version that you can flash Faria's rom from. Most people recommend the T-Mobile rom as it has the latest bootloaders and is a good base to build from
c) You can do this at any time after you have successfully flashed a carrier rom.

If you unlocked your phone properly with the method for your device type (G3 or G4) it will not hurt your phone to flash any ROM that is compatible with your phone version (G3's can flash most anything without issue, G4's can only flash certain ROMs)

is there anyway to "shelltools" flash my radio rom? I've been missing a lot of calls lately and it really is becoming inconvenient. I havent unlocked my phone, but i am running wm6 using shelltools (mfrazzz's stuff) and i was wondering do i even need to have my phone unlocked to flash my radio? i dont want to lose my warranty so thats why this matters to me. Any ideas guys?
You may get the official (in your case, T-Mobile, I guess) ROM to flash your phone with the full set of WM5 ROM (e.g. IPL, SPL, OS and Radio). As you are using the official ROM, you do not have to CID-unlock your phone prior flashing this official ROM. After that, you may then use shelltool to update/upgrade/flash the WM6 in, while the radio is untouched (e.g. still using the one you've flashed with the official ROM).
i thin i have done what you said already. Before i flashed mfrazzz's wm6 rom i flashed the latest tmobile rom, then i proceeded to flash the wm6 rom. I didnt use shelltools to flash the official tmobile rom obviosuly, but i did use shelltools to flash mrazzz's wm6 rom.
these are my things from what i'm using now:
ipl 2.26
spl 2.26
gsm 02.25.11
os 2.18.0.0
Flash the t-mobile uk radio rom 2.19.11.. that'll work for u.
ur OS is wrong if ur running wm6...
2.18 is Crossbow Reloaded... or Faria's..

I have flashed my RADIO ONLY several times with no consequences for my CID LOCKED G4 Wizard, here´s the link for the RADIO ONLY
ftp://xda:[email protected]_Thread/T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radio_Only.zip
You have flashed RADIO only on you G4? HOW? I am having the following problem:
I had to flash a T-Mobile German ROM to use the shelltool for the latest WM6 ROM, it worked but unforunately I have got Radio 2.69 and IPL 3.08.XXX1. (from the latest official MDA Vario ROM flash before)
After the Hardreset everything went fine - I've got WM6, but after i had changed the Clock settings and restarted my device i simply have NO SIGNAL anymore. I am currently in australia maybe thats the reason???
I tried to install the offical T-Mobile AKU 2.0, but the RUU shows me error 296 as I have installed a later ROM AKU3.3 bevor my WM6 flash.
Which tools have y used? And how is the procedure?
Cheers!!!

No, we can´t flash a ROM with bootloader other than the one you have if you have a G4 CID locked device. Unless you use a RUU with no ID (see next paragraph) and the nb.nkf file lacks of IPL/SPL, such is the case of the Wizard Love which I use before to flash any other ROM with the Shell Tool.
Read post #2 of this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310954
Read carefully where talks about Splash Screens and Splash Only RUU for G4, same procedure for splash screen applies to RADIO. This doesn´t work for OS, for OS you have to use Shell Tool.
Good luck!
I had seen the Aserg using he USPL to flash his rom and radio.
GUYs:
DO remember,if you are not Hard-spl,your spl ipl is lower than 4.00.0000,Please don't run JUMPSPL or USPL-BETA3 by pof.

The HARD-SPL is a little more dangerous than the USPL... I can help you find ways to get any ROM you want on that phone easily enough, but UNLOCKING it again is the hard part. There's not 100% sure fire SAFE way of doing it.
welll, i just installed the hard-spl on my device and it went through
there's just one thing that gets me...
what's the difference with this hard-spl and HTC?
is the only difference is that the boot screen is different or are there more features?
For now, I just need a comparision of what the hard-spl has from the HTC one.
The Hard-SPL is a customer SPL. It's permanent, too. You will have to create your own customized RUU from now on, one that lacks the SPL. You can't flash RUU's that contain SPL because the SPL is now write protected. It's convinient, though, because now you can't accidently screw it up. (It's safe once you have it IN your device. Too many people brick their phones trying to get it in there in the first place, though.)
So now i won't be able to put in the HTC RUU anymore?
All right, sorry i'm being so stupid, but here's another question...
You said that i now have to make my own customized RUUs?
What do you mean by that?
If you don't mind, you could send me a pm, I don't want to spam this thread with my stupidity.
Now you can flash ANY rom you want.
ALL cooked ROms - really all - without the chance of bricking = your device is SAFE.
IF you respect this little thing
every RUU Rom Update Utility
contains:
1. Enterbootloader.exe
2. Rapitool.exe
3. RomupgradeUtility.exe (the one you start)
4. RUUGetinfo.exe
5. RUU ressource.dll
6. RUU_signed.nbh (that is the custom system OS - you can put every HERALD .nbh here postet in touchIT3 for example)
7. SPL.nbh ---- !!!!!!!! delete this allways!!!!!!!!! ------ (it is in all official RUU but delete it)
now you can flash with an official update tool all custom roms for you herald.
But don´t use wing roms - the keyboadmapping is different.
There are good herald roms, too.
Good luck

Flashing radio Rom is very simple.Download the radio Rom which you want to flash,hook up the phone with pc via usb cable and run the RUU in the Radio Rom,it'll start to flash,it'll hardly take a minute or so to flash,phone will reboot to new Radio Rom.There's no special method to flash a Radio Rom.
