Upgrading Radio ROM

i just flashed the 1.10.25.18 radio rom from the
THE XPERIA X1 LIBRARY: All available ROMS, RADIOS, TOOLS, FLASHING TUTORIALS, apps

thread, using the RADIO Update Utility.
Flashing went on until 99%, then it resulted in an error 262. After i took out and reinserted the battery the phone started up normally. Windows shows that the new radio rom has been installed.
does every radio flash result in an error, although it succeeds?

Im having the same experience... i hope its normal..

Had the same problem. Worked fine the 2nd time I flashed again.

I've used the flash from SD card method for both the radio and the ROM. Far easier and more stable than trying to do it over USB.

Anyway it is already tested and works
Just re-flash and omit the error if you get to 99%, check your device's on-screen "radio version" to check
The error seems related to the "security lock" (notice: NOT = "sim" or "operator lock")
Congrats on your successful flash, please report your "xperiances" with the new radio ROM

do you see any noticeable difference between this radio and one that you had before?

With the default x1i radio, i sometimes notice that when using wifi holding the x1 in one hand and the stylus in the other, the radio will disconnect and start searching for signal, will updating radio solve this issue?

We haven't quite moved in to our new house yet, but during one of the walk throughs I noticed that I barely get any signal there. Well, I flashed a newer radio on and went back out there last night. I easily picked up another bar. Its not like I went from no signal to full bars, but it was a little better.

I have Radio 1.10.25.18
Also, the bluetooth stays on all the time It does not turn itself off randomly.
Wifi seems to work ok. Signal wise, i didn't encountered any "hiccups" until now. The battery life seems to be increased by 30-40%.

Hello,
trying/tried to upgrade my 1.10.25.18 Radio (from R2A UK generic) to the BLACKSTONE_Radio_1.10.25.25 Radio found here.
Doing it from PC, and the ROM update utility 3.22.4.3 comes up with this:
Verify that you want to update the ROM version:
From:
Image Version : 1.03.931.8
To:
Image Version : 1.00.Raphael
Is this right? seems like I'm downgrading (or is that the details of the full rom but since I'm only picking the Radio I should be fine?
Cheers

Have you bothered reading the radio thread? and I don't mean this one...

I've read quite a lot and I'm trying to catch up (coming from 7years on symbian oses) have managed to hard spl and upgrade my phone. Haven't seen any radio rom particular thread.
Could you please point me in the right direction?

It took me a couple of secs with "search forum"

old version apk?
Sucks ! Anywasy then does anyone have apk file to reinstall old one ! My dumb ass didn't save one on sd card !

im having the same force closing

me too having force closing

yeah keeps forclosing for me too and i downloaded loaded and uninstalled like 5times lol i think this is just happeneing with rooted g1's =/ downer

yeap happening to me too. i wonder if it was intentional?

i think someone found a fix for it via the T-mobile forums.
Meh. I have found an easy fix. hint: Build.prop

not sure if devs need to change things in the Build.prop

Phone Model Not Found
The My Account application is available to T-Mobile customers and supported phones only.

Dang it. Using Rogers ROM so it's still labeled as HTC Dream. =/

I too am having problems. For all those that need the old version, I am including it in this post. For those that might know how to fix the new one, I am including it in this post as well. Just unzip. Both files inside. 2.0 is obviously the newest version.
Mods, I don't think this is a problem, as the app is not protected and readily available on the Market.
Thanks in advance to someone that can fix it, and I hope the old version helps someone who might have forgotten to back it up.

Yay

Muchas Gracias Paisa !

helped me out, i tend to forget to back up my apps.

ok i have something strange to report...
i have the new version installed (2.0) and like everyone else it wont open BUT
my battery level just dropped below 30% and my phone got a notification from My Account 2.0 and when i clicked it a popup came up giving me suggestions to save my battery by changing some settings...hmmmm FC but still running in the background...

2.0 myacct
i am also getting foreclosures hope it was an error by tmobile and theyll update tomorrow or something i cant believe they would target rooted ppl.

Anyone with a JF US CRC1 rom tried it?
Could be that since most of us are on anything but the T-mobile rom that it does this
I mean most of these ROMs are based of ADP or AOSP..
I'm not sure, and maybe im just talking non sense..
But also someone in the comments said they had a Google Ion and it didn't work also..
So this could be ONLY for T-Mobile branded phones?

Give credit next time. There is some property in build.prop that the app is looking at to see if our phone is supported....dont know which tho since my ROM's build.prop keeps going back to its default every time i apply a "fixed" one.

The app is getting a NullPointerException, I don't think it has anything to do with being rooted or not.

So what IS the build.prop change that we need to make? And will it hurt anything else if I modify it?

See my post above...its using the build.prop to detect if we can use it...thus this error on some rooted phones.

Since when were radio's flashed through recovery? I've flashed many radio's, but through HBOOT. And anyone have an MD5? Easiest way to brick your phone right here. I'm on the 2.15.00.11.19 radio right now.

I have no idea how I works but it does. Ha

Interesting, I dug through the zip, there is indeed a radio.IMG, and an updater script to flash the radio.IMG. That's a new one.

What?

Looks like 2.X from what the OP said. But I'm not flashing until I have a proper MD5, just incase.

someone feel free to modify it to make it work in bootloader. i just found it and gave it a whirl and it worked.

got the bootloader hboot version to work, check out OP

I flashed the CWM version and it works just fine. Thanks for the thread

So I'm not entirely sure how the naming theme works, but it appears this radio is a lower version number than the newest evo radio for the Inc.
Newest radio we have is 2.15.00.11.19 and this one here is 2.15.00.04.08?
Please enlighten me, someone.

to my knowledge its the newer version, from the gingerbread 2.3.3 EVO leak from earlier today. and what i was reading, can't remember the link, but its a april 8th, 2011 radio file.

anyone seeing any differences?

None so far. I used the Bootloader version to install. Worked fine.

I have been 88-92 dBm in my computer room with every radio I have tried. The Evo 11.19 was around -90 and was the most stable for me and best call quality.
I am sitting at -85 dBm with this radio. Not a huge difference, but I am optimistic.
Of course I will have to play with it for a few days to be sure the dbm difference equates to call quality and download speeds.
Thanks for the link.

Just flashed the bootloader version. Fine. Ill see how it is over the next few days

Hmmm, curious. I want to flash but skeptical at this point.

Here we go again with the pointless radio flashing.

Hmm, has some one tryed to flash this ROM and after that flash latest baseband from v10c?
Since the ROM is ported and US is using a different radio hardware it might work to change baseband after flash?
Or am i totaly wrong here

Wow, the radio is posted 20 minutes after the leak was posted here. That's pretty quick!

Omg...once someone reports back on trying it, ima definitely flash. Ima admitted radio crackflasher. Lol

I got it, went from -88 to -71 in area i never get 4 bars in, i now have them. Lookin good so far! Thanks dude!

Been a while since I flashed a radio and I know it's not good to screw those up.
This gets done in CW or just on the basic bootloader when it asks you to press volume up or down (yes or no) to install?

I didn't see any significant changes in my area. Went from -89 to -90, lol
Edit: I thinks worse now -93

Yes, bootloader. Too bad stang, big difference in central ks. Did you *228 yet?

Bootloader. Make sure it's named "p31img.zip" and not "p31img.zip.zip" Drop it into the root directory of your SD card. Bootloader will do the rest. When you're successfully booted after the flash, remove the zip file from your root directory.
Wait for the thing to fully reboot. Resist the urge to pull the battery, lest you find yourself with a brick.
Flashing the radio is just about the only way you can permanently screw up your Android. You might want to wait to find out what improvements are part of the new radio before you risk flashing it.

Im not seeing any difference in signal strength.

Keep in mind, however, that the leaked OTA has TVOut in it now (two files, the apk and a library, actually) which has been noticeably lacking from the prior Incredible Gingerbread leak. It is possible (dunno 'cause I haven't flashed these yet, only just seeing this thread) that this radio is required for TV out to work under Gingerbread. (One recognized developer suggested that was possible).
Edit: Nevermind. Flashed the radio; added the two files I thought I needed for TV Out, still can't get it. Must be missing something else and will just have to wait.....
