I upgraded my radio to p3droid. Today I flashed a new rom. So I was wondering if my radio gets downgraded back to original after flashing a new rom.

Don't honestly know the answer to whether the radio is flashed when flashing a new rom. I would expect since most radio updates appear to be separate update.zips that the rom doesn't upgrade radio. You can check under Settings>About Phone>Baseband Version. The latest I believe is C_01.3E.03P.
The radio does not get touched during a rom flash.
Thanks I noticed after checking original radio in Droid setting info and the version I have now. I forgot what the original version was but got it now. Thanks

I do believe the latest radio does require you to have Froyo... the earlier ones should work on any ROM. And the radio can be updated when you flash an update.zip ROM. It just depends on how the Dec has it set up.
The latest is C_01.43.01P - released with FRF84B
The one before that was C_01.41.00R - released with FRF57
And before that was C_01.3E.03P - the one released with 2.1 Eclair (ESE81)

Thanks. The only thing with new radio is it drops down to 1G alot. It sucks because it always seems to do it when I'm doing something important or downloading. Other wise it works much better than the original one I had.

I am currently on stock 2.1. The baseband since the update gives me a lot of issues at home 3g and switching to 1x. The new froyo rom should give me an updated baseband when it comes right? Otherwise I will have to get the previous basebands installed and root my phone?
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
No, I had similar question but when flashing roms it doesn't touch the baseband. I also have that issue mine drops to 1x alot also and is frustrating. But the older ones when I do searches on the internet it take almost 30 seconds for data transfer to start. The latest is quicker at that but the 1x drop is frustrating. To clearify again though the only way the baseband is updated or downgraded is by flashing it through an update zip or ota update. Roms don't affect it.

I should also add after flashing a rom, try reprogramming the phone by *228. It seems to help when I have issues after new rom. Also I installed a data disable widget. When it drops to 1x I disable the data connection for a minute or couple seconds and reactivate it usually returns to 3g when it comes back on.

Sprint radios?
How about using a Sprint radio on a Droid. IDK. I just got my Droid in the mail yesterday,got it rooted today and am working on checking out radio upgrades for it. I am coming from an CDMA HTC Hero200 from Sprint and with that phone we could put Verizon radio's and PRL's on them to up the coverage area and get better reception. My last one was a Sprint radio with a Verizon PRL and I had the best reception ever! Just some food for thought. If anybody has any valuable info on this I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks in advance!
Figured I'd make a thread, so its easier to follow and find this thing.
All bug reports and the majority of development for cyanogenmod 6 on the incredible on xda should remain in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=722478
In fact, there really should be no reason to post anything here, but i know it will happen anyway...so lets try to keep it on topic and not let this thing run wild like so many other threads have been doing.
CREDITS
Before getting started, one thing needs to be clear. I did not do anything here other than smash together some things that other people did. No thanks is necessary to me, i did not code, nor compile anything.
Instead thank (in no particular order):
-koush, and cyanogenmod team for the rom
-koush, ejhart/hydra, rmk40 for the kernel with wifi bug fix. Get the here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7546856 (it should also be noted, that this may not be totally fixed, for now live without wifi or with an occasional lock up. when we get a .32 kernel this should be fixed)
-CaptainTaco for finding where to put the /emmc mount command
-Xevin for the cyanogenmod boot animation
-unrevoked for making this all possible on this, as well as several other phones
-and probably several others that i forgot or didnt know about
This is a straight cyanogenmod rom, with a couple modifications.
-rmk40 posted a kernel that fixes a bug that makes the phone lock up when resuming from 'sleep' mode. currently the kernel is v2 and included in this rom
-set /emmc to mount on boot. this does not mean that everything can see it (gallery, and music and such cannot) but it is accessible with astro, adb, etc.
-Xevin's boot animation from: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/1985-custom-cyanogenmod-boot-animation/ this is now included by default
It should also be noted that eventually, i believe, this 'mash-up' will be obsolete. Once the rom is complete for the incredible, these sorts of features will most likely be included in the original rom. (maybe not the boot animation, but we'll see).
Basically what I am getting at is that you should check the linked thread at the top of this post, as well as stickies and popular threads in this sub-forum before using this rom. I will do my best to keep it updated if it needs to be done.
I also recommend doing a nandroid and a wipe (WIPE INSIDE CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY, NOT FROM ROM MANAGER!) before trying to flash any of these.
You do not need to update your radio for this rom, but it wont hurt if you do/did.

For some reason after using this rom for one day, every build of it, my tpuch screen will stop working when I unlock phone or when I get a phone call, and when screen comes on I can't slide to unlock, all I can do is cut screen on and turn it back off but still won't work until I remove battery and reboot, then after 5 minutes it does it again?? What's the deal?? It did it when answerong a call on stock sense sometimes too

These are still testing roms.
That being said,
Are you wiping before flashing?
Restoring something causing it maybe?
Yep I wipe everytime, it starts doing it randomly, not from me restoring anything. Wonder if its a hardware thing

That's from the wifi bug. turn off your wifi.
Am I correct to assume that no radio upgrade is needed to run this?

Wireless tethering not working

Not working for me either, but Wireless Tether app works fine (google it).
Having issues with gps on mashup. Anyone else?
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
built in wireless tether probably wont work, it should work with the app though, "wireless tether for root users"
also, gps for me kinda works, but its a really big circle and im not really close to the center
i may be wrong, but i think these issues will subside once there is a .32 kernel to build for cyanogenmod
currently, since htc has not officially released froyo for the incredible, we do not have the source code for the .32 incredible kernel
once the officially release froyo, it will probably be a few weeks/months before the source is available
I just rooted my Dinc for the first time using the unrEVOked tool. What do I need to start install to put this ROM on my phone? Also what are the steps to installing the ROMs? Sorry I'm still super new to Android. I understand adb push and all of that to get a custom bootloader.

my gps never works the first time i open it, i have to close navigation and then re open it and enter the address. Then it works flawlessly. weird but has done this on test8, all nightlys and mashups.
with this ROM installed when I click on the app drawer there is no market. any ideas????
Hello,
can i upragde only the radio fw version ?some people are reporting better battery life with the new baseband fw. And if so, can i flash back the old "downrev" fw back, if i had problems ?
From :
Radio_13.45.55.24_3.35.15.31.zip - OLD, standard in 2.1 Roms
to
Radio_13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25.zip - NEW in Chinise Froyo 2
I currently have the unrbanded wwe version 1.25.405.1 installed.
This is something I too would be interested to know. I have tried to do some serching but this is the first case I can find regarding the new 2.2 radio from the chinese rom.
I am currently on Puzzlerom 7.3
Once the v8 rom / v8.0.1 is stable I will go to that. Unless we have ourselfs a 2.2 froyo rom out before that. As I use my phone in a variety of ways and in multipule situations, I cant go without it for very long. 2 hrs at a time max.
Hope to be able to test things though ^_^
Peace
Just Made the update trough recovery .now iam running at the 2.1 Rom with the new radio firmware active from the new android 2.2 chinese rom. Actually I see no problems at all

All components are working fine (gsm/umts,wlan,gps and bluetooth).
Only the frst Time GPS FIX takes a bit longer after update.
Also, the battery life seems to be a bit longer and the handy seems
to be more stable during calls with active data connections.
Word of warning, I had trouble with radio version 7.13.35.05 (high pcnt % time without signal)
So this one may not work well with your variant A6363 (900/2100Mhz)
Baseband
47.54.35.20U_7.13.35.13
Bell Eclair rom had version 7.08.35.05, same as the new South Korea KT Froyo rom
Frequencies UMTS 850/1900Mhz (A6365)
Using Amend script (CWM 2.x only)

As System i have CM-7.0-RC4 (No GPS-Problem with this radio version!)

Ah actually tried but its not using edify so can't install with CWM3 and I can't seem to get the device working with fastboot either. If someone posts an edify version, I'll test.

There's a trick you can try. Get old fake-flash CWM, name it let say update-old.zip and put it onto your SD card. Boot into new CWM and install that update-old.zip you previously put on SD card. Old CWM should reload instantly. It won't erase or replace anything on your system, just in RAM.

i used this method for radio upgrading... and also some other stuff that their installation are aborted in cwm3
I've tried this radio on Legend (the usual fastboot flash radio procedure) and got quite high battery usage in standby during few days, so I decided to downgrade it back to 7.13.35.05.
Flashed to Vodafone Legend, seems to work fine so far.
Runs flawlessly on Vodafone Legend (CM7).
Now after one week of usage i can say the following:
- Battery livetime was increased (recorded with systempanel)
- GPS exactness seams to be improved (also the lock speed)
- GSM signal strengh is better - now i can allso recive calls when i'm in my basement ...
I havn't found anything that didn't work after the update.
So i'm happy with the new radio version
This new radio fixed my gps issues with CM7 RC4. Thanks!
Can I update via Rom Manager as a full rom? Thanks.

Yes, this is the way it should be flashed. But bear in mind that this is NOT a full ROM. You'll still have your current ROM, just in About Phone you'll see a new radio version

I have a Bell Legend upgrading from the Froyo WWE radio and I've noticed that after my 3rd reboot, the GPS still doesn't lock on. Haven't had GSM testing yet, I'm in the mountains and WiFi seems to be very improved.
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
EDIT: Well, it found 1 satellite in view. Usually it would lock on in 5 seconds, getting like 10 (around) satellites. Then the single one it found went out of view. This radio is a joke.
EDIT2: HOLY CRAP, JUST AS I WAS ABOUT TO RESTORE THE NANDROID, IT FOUND TWO (although it took about 5 minutes). OMFG A THIRD ONE.
HOLY CRAP IT LOCKED ON! That took a damn long time though, and I'm indoors now. Why couldn't it find some when I was driving? This is still a joke. I'll nandroid it tonight.
EDIT3: Okay, maybe I'm starting to think the fails I had, I had because the GPS was initializing or something, and I didn't give it enough time to breathe before closing GPS Test and resetting it, etc. Maybe I'll keep this another day to see further results, the GPS is starting to lock-on instantly now, which is nice. Can't comment on GSM though.
EDIT4: Aaaaaaaaand we're back to its old intermittent habits. I can't believe this. This is bullsh*t.

After using it for about 2 weeks, I think this does help with receiving calls in low signal area. It also helps with the battery life strangely.
So I just received another update on my Revolution...of course it didn't work since i'm on Broken Out. Any idea what this update is??
Ditto.
I wonder what the update is.
Got the same update this morning. I defered it for 24 hrs hoping to jump on here to see if there are any ideas and solutions to getting the update while keeping root and Broken Out.
Perhaps I'll just freeze the software update.
There's root for it but no CWM or any roms yet. It's been talked about here

There is root and cwm for v9. Right now all you would be able to do is debloat the stock rom and install flashable tweaks (ie, ics tweaks, thunderbolt, etc). Unfortunately, no roms available yet for v9, but MT is working on it.

Droid Life has some info on ZV9 from a few days ago. Click the link for a screenshot from Verizon's site. Thanks drt054 in a previous thread.
The LG Revolution on Verizon has an update on the way as build VZ910ZV9. Through the update, LG has patched a security hole, improved the phone application, and fixed some text message issues. More importantly though, Verizon mentioned their new “Remote Diagnostics” customer service tool again that has raised a few eyebrows in its short life. It first debuted on the Revolution back in March, so it is sort of odd to see them bring it up again here. We aren’t sure if they are improving it or making it as public as possible as to not freak out Revolution owners. Probably the latter.
