Have you read the sticky on the forum? If not do it. I don't think anyone can come up with anything simpler than that.

How to flash baseband??

Some tattoo have baseband version 13.29.55.13G_3.35.07.20 and it doesn't support 3G, whereas tattoos with baseband version 13.29.55.13H_3.35.07.20 does.
Is there any option to flash this baseband of 3G to non-3G tattoos??
Thanks
Yes, use an update.zip. I'll add it as an option in my MCR kitchen.

@ shyam, did you find out anything more positive towards changing the baseband firmware of tattoo ??? even i am as curious a s u r.... please dont mistake me for those words which i said to u to calm down.... ok ???
i hope many european tattoo owners who have a baseband version of 3G could help us right ??? i dont know how to ask them to extract baseband firmware & upload it here.... do u have any idea about that ???
I hope there is some progress............
here u go thacen.... rename it as update.zip & reboot into recovery mode, then apply update.zip from sdcard.... simple.
here is the link posted by paul... the hard working guy. credit should go to him
i am just posting the download link.... for ur convenience.....
http://kitchen.romraid.com/paul/tattoo/update-tattoo-radio-13.29.55.13H_3.35.07.20-signed.zip
So can someone confirm that with the paulobrien's update, could you get the 3g support working?
Update very much appreciated.

no its not possible... somehow that baseband has got nothing to do with the 3G hardware... only if u change the spl, then i think we stand a very good chance of getting 3G functionality in tattoo....
noone cared to post us the spl which could give us the 3G functionality.... waiting for someone who can do it.... baseband has got nothing to do with 3G. SPL is must for 3G function....
My advice is don't flash it on non-3G Tattoo. because I've had flashed on mine and it's bricked after that. my phone is now at HTC Care and hopefully they'll repair it.

It is no problem to try..many had tried.. i also tried without bricking, only thing is this could not success changing the base-band version at this time.
I think... in your case, you had removed the battery in the middle of flashing.. that is the problem. This base-band flashing actually require rebooting to continue flashing but you had removed the battery instead... plz be careful next time...plz read all the instructions properly and whole thread before actually jump into...
anyway till now this one is not working... so we need to wait for a working version.

Question about rooting new 2.1

Hey guys I wanted to ask a question and see what kind of feedback I get
I had a nice rooted hero but had some hardware issues and Sprint was nice enough to replace my phone
However, now I have the official 2.1 update and I know I cant root my phone again (Even though Ive tried )
My question is, I still have the unofficial RUU that was released a while back that I also used but I was able to root after that update. If I use that RUU again and install it over the official RUU, will I be able to ROOT my phone again?
Im afraid to brick my phone so all your help is greatly appreciated

Unfortunately, that will not work. It won't brick your phone either, because it won't let it flash the rom.
thanks for the info. that sucks. does anyone think we will be able to root the 2.1 soon? I miss my old phone..

Yeah. Once you root the phone you'll keep root as long as you flash a ROM that keeps the root (such as Cyanogen). If you flash a stock ROM you may lose root access

[Q] [Stock ROM] moto X 1052 Retail EU 4.4.4

Hi,
i lost my all data and backup STOCK ROM, then is was trying to unroot using RSD lite it shows error i.e Downgrade Security reason error.
can any one post stock for my moto x 1052 Retail EU versions 4.4.4.
:crying:
Thanks
Mahesh...
I'm not sure that the files have been released for manual flashing yet.
Can you be more specific on the current state of your device... It's wiped and unusable? What have you tried flashing exactly? Did you try to flash an older version of android?
And what All have you tried to do.
And what version were you on before all this?
And how were you rooted exactly?
Just trying to see the whole picture here. Need all this info to really help... Hopefully.
At this point, you may be waiting until the files are out for flashing.... Unless your answers to these questions change something. ?

I suggest you not do anything else until you've researched this a bit more.
No, you can't downgrade safely. You could brick your device trying, or later by taking an OTA.
I don't, and many others, ever suggest downgrading. It's very dangerous and has left many with serious problems, or even unusable devices.
That said. Why are you trying to unroot exactly?
Also... You can only flash the 4.4.4 files now. They probably aren't available yet so you will need to be patient. If CM is working for you now, that's great.... But you may be stuck like that until the SBF files are out for 4.4.4....then you can flash it with RSDLite or fastboot.
I don't see you have any other safe options.

How many phones have you bricked? I'm sorry, but I remember many of your posts with big problems in the past. You seem to ignore most advice. No offense intended.... But it's true.
Cause this one will brick if you ever take an ota. Practically guaranteed.
Hope you realize that? ?
Also.... Everyone gets lucky occasionally.... But the X section is filled with threads from people who didn't get lucky.
So please never recommend anyone try it. You don't want to be responsible for them being unlucky and destroying their toy. Right? ?

i don t recommend it like we speak in another thread.
i just tell that this is possible.
i bricked the device for others reasons and not for downgrade.
but like u say if the people don t know how to do it or what s the risk to do it : DON T DOWNGRADE.

You have a fitting user name. ?
Seriously, with some people not knowing what they are doing... And with communication misunderstandings due to language barriers and what not...
If someone asks you can they safely downgrade.... Just say no. ?
Cause it's never safe. You're adventure isn't necessarily over either.... If you take an ota accidentally or on purpose... You might be phone shopping. ?
That's all I'll say on that.
