Radio upgrade - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just had a quick question, Can you just use the new radio upgrade without the danger spl, or do you HAVE to flash the spl with the radio.....
does the hero radio offer any advantages over the cupcake radio?

You do not need to use the danger spl in order to use the new radio image, the radio image is just the newest radio software, you could get better service with or you might not so flash it see how it works for you, I always download the newest for better service for me

You can flash to the newest radio whenever, the trouble comes when people have the danger spl and flash backwards.

[Q]Any ADP's on Hero ROM?

Has anyone been successful in flashing Hero onto an ADP phone?
If you did, did you flash from the original engineering SPL -> HardSPL -> Haykuro SPL?
Or is it safe to go from Engineering SPL -> HaykuroSPL?
I've flashed to my ADP.
I was on the original, and went to the Haykuro SPL. Had no real trouble I believe. But really, it's just an extra flashing, if done right you have no real worries.
I'm going to flash take your word for it and flash striaght to it.
Sidenote: Flash the latest radio first.

Quick SPL and Radio question

Wether or not I have a rooted G1, should I always try to have the latest radio and SPL, even if the ROM doesn't require it?

If you don't have root you can't flash your ROM, radio or SPL. AFAIK There has only been the android 1.1 and 1.5 Radios, so they don't come along too often. If you're on a 1.1 ROM then you should be on the 1.1 radio, same with 1.5, you should be on the 1.5 Radio. SPL is your choice depending on what you want. I use Hayuro's because it supports all ROMs, but some prefer Hard SPL. If your ROM doesn't need a different SPL, wether you want to install it is your choice.

Downgrade radio

Hi,
I seem to have some issues delievering SMS under the new radio (I assume it to be the cause).
I'm currently using both SPL and Radio from Haykuro (that I flashed in order to try on Hero roms), but, having the above in account, I'd like to return to stock radio (version 1.smth).
So, taking teh brick factor into account I was considering doing the following:
1) Flash DangerSPL
2) Flash Stock Radio
Is the procedure safe/correct/in correct order?
Where can I get the stock radio?
DO NOT flash the danger spl and downgrade radio, youll brick for sure. Id just try a reflash of the radio, rom or both first.

Question about re-flashing 2.22.19.26I radio and Haykuro's DangerSPL

I have the latest 2.22.19.26I radio and Haykuro's DangerSPL.
I want to re-flash both of these.
1) Is it safe to flash the radio and then the SPL?
2) If I decide to go back to HardSPL, will it be safe to just flash the HardSPL while the 2.22.19.26I radio is already installed?
I want to make sure my Android won't turn into a doorstop

why don't you want the haykuro spl?
Ok, maybe I won't go back to the HardSPL. All Hero ROMs require Haykuro's SPL and even some AOSP ROMs like SuperD need it too.
I just want to know if my phone will brick or not, because I've done simple stuff like this before but ended up with more problems (even bricks) because no one cared to mention there was a danger.
@hiddengopher
lol at your signature xD
so can anyone answer this i was wondering if you could go back to hardspl too?
You phone will be fine... and .26I is not a latest radio.

[Q] Return G1 to stock from latest radio and SPL

Hi,
I upgraded my G1 to the latest radio and SPL - radio-2.22.27.08.img and hoot-1.33.0013d.img. I am running CM 6.1.0 with an ezterry kernal for the 2708 radio.
I am going to give my phone to someone and want to return it phone to stock. I tried flashing the 2.22.19.26I.zip radio in recovery and it said there was not enough space.
I tried following the directions here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=491350
but fastboot mode said that the .nbh file was an invalid image.
How can I go back to the old SPL and radio?
thanks,
I have exactly the same issue
