For those of you that flashed a bad radio to your NS4G, there is a fix!
Many thanks go out to Netarchy for relentlessly trying to fix my radio, and Shabbypenguin for supply Netarchy with his phone images both of them did a lot of work just to get my phone operational again Thank you very much!
Attached is the signed zip for you to flash in recovery. now listen very carefully before you complain that this didn't work for you. It did not work for me either, but it just may work for some people to flash in recovery, that is why i'm supplying a signed zip for you. What I had to do to get this to work is to unzip the file. inside there is a file called "radio.pr.img" boot into your bootloader and use the following fastboot command
Code:
fastboot flash radio radio.pr.img
that worked for me and hopefully it will work for anyone else that flashes a bad image.
Once again thank you to Shabbypenguin and Netarchy, and anyone else that may have helped out.
Is this the stock radio that comes with it?

Nah, the image that fixed you was the radio image extracted from the OTA ;D

What issue are you having?
Uncle Jimmy says hello
So can we use this with the SuperAsop rom?
Does anyone know if fastboot oem listpartitions work with this phone? Not at my pc right now. I was wondering which partitions were which. I dumped every image, 7, and i have one that is 13.5mb which i think is the radio that this phone came with. Also i wanna find out which is wimax
Uncle Jimmy says hello
So I installed SuperASOP 8.0 and then tried flashing the zip in recovery and pushing the img file via ADB and still have no radio. So it looks like no we can't use SuperASOP yet.
no superaosp doesnt have the cdma/wimax stuff, it was added to teh aosp source yesterday

Can radios be flashed with UF at anytime now with an update.zip?
Also where is a zip file for the 2.15 radio or is there anyone willing to share? It's not the same as the evo's is it?
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
To flash:
1. Place PB31IMG.zip to root of SD card
2. Power down phone
3. Press volume down and power at same time
4. It will ask to update...press volume UP for yes
5. It will ask for reboot...press volume UP for yes
Once done...enjoy.

i thought with S-OFF, we can flash radio with CWM? also, do i just rename the radio OTA to PB31IMG(.zip)?
with s-off, i can flash the radio anytime i want with any rom i want? without going back to the unroot stock rom?

It already saves it as PB31IMG.zip....so just move it to root and go on with process.
That's for the splash and does not update radio. I've installed that and the update.zip and still have 2.05

I honestly don't know what I'm doing wrong, i have the pb31img.zip(radio update) on root of sd did the whole power down and power on with volume(down) and when i get to hboot it has
fastboot

after 2 seconds or so it does this:
sd checking...
loading...pb31diag.zip
no image
loading...pb31diag.nbh

Make sure the sdcard is formatted as fat32 and that the zip name is exactly "PB32IMG.zip", exact casing and make sure also that its not .zip.zip
OK i just reformatted the sd card to FAT32 and the file i downloaded was PB31IMG, i don't have an extra .zip, that's common mistake for me to do so it was first thing to check. ok so that fixed it. i must not have had it formatted correctly, its whatever it was stock
edit: mrozzeh and the rest of the unrevoked team, i would like to say thank you, and thanks for the personal help too.

Anytime. (10 characters blah)
Hold the optical pad and the power button...not the vol down key and give it a shot
Radio update isn't working for me. Saved PB31IMG.zip to the root of my FAT32formatted SD card, rebooted, it found the PB31IMG.zip file, went though the loading process, got the point where it said "checking" and then went back to the menu without loading the update. I've downloaded the radio update twice with the same results. I currently have the 2.05.00.06.11 radio but have not yet installed s -off. Do I need to do that first?
Any other suggestions?
EDIT: Nevermind, I installed the unrevoked forever s -off patch and the radio update seems to be installing now.
EDIT 2: Radio update updates kernal to .32 correct?

Well first we need to know what radio you are currently using. Go to Settings -> About Phone and look under Baseband. You are looking for the first three numbers after the underscore in the middle. Post your version.
Thanks for your reply. The baseband version says 32.19.00
That doesn't look right. Can you post the whole baseband version?
Oups my mistake.it is 4.02.02

With the .IMG file you can flash through fastboot or you can download the signed update file and flash custom recovery. Recovery is easier for people that arent that great in fastboot.
http://www.mediafire.com/?yzv4jlkyfng
This is the newest radio version already in a .zip file. just throw it in the root of your sdcard, boot into recovery and select flash zip file and select the file.

I didnt use recovery to flash radio also, but I have an N1 with locked bootloader and fast boot doesnt work with locked bootloaders. Kinda sucks having to use flash_image each time. But The 2 files that i posted up, ive personally used and flashed radio recovery and havent had any problems with it.
Thanks guys. I see 2 versions, 4.x and 5.x which one should i go for

It depends on you. some say 4.x is better some say 5.x is better. Everyone has their own opinion for radio, roms, etc.
Mmnn last question, would it matter if i install 5.x and roll back to 4.x if needed? I guess not but justto be sure

Nope. Just be careful and not let the phone die during a radio flash process. it can brick your phone.
Radios are the one thing you have to be extremely careful when flashing. Interrupting the radio flash is basically the only proven way to brick a phone.
Make sure you have ample battery charge, have your phone plugged in, and DON'T mess with the phone while it works it's magic. I can't stress this enough.
Wouhouuu i have the 5.x now im thankful guyss!

You can flash the radio using fastboot anyway, because radio isn't a custom build and is signed with authentic keys, allowing it to be flashed with the regular locked bootloader.

thanks for reply brother
easiest way is to get ROM Manger from market and flash CWM that way.
I would stay away from CWM 3.0 since it's known to cause problems.

If you have unlocked your bootloader (I think that is what you said earlier?), then just flash recovery via fastboot like the wiki says...
What part are you struggling with? Are you getting any error messages?

I think you are just copying the command verbatim.
When it says /path/to/recovery.img it literally means wherever you have saved that file on your computer. In windows, it could very much look like
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "c:\user\john doe\Downloads\clockworkmod\recovery.img"
Keep in mind, if you are using windows, if the location has any spaces in it, it requires quotes around the whole thing.

DO not use fastboot.
To install these leaks put them on your External SD card, and boot into Motorola Recovery. From there select "Install Update from External Storage " or something along those lines.
Remember my warnings... there may not be a chance of going back if you use these.

See my Kernel Changer thread in development if you want to try the new kernels from the leaks without getting stuck on them. No one has flashed them and I wouldn't recommend anyone do it either. Without fastboot files you can get pretty stuck...
I was wondering if anyone else has a problem with there vivid randomly rebooting on it's own! It will randomly happen once or twice a day which wouldn't be a problem except it generally occurs at the worst time possible i.e. when I'm on the phone. I'm currently running ICS-sense 3.6-kernel 3.0.36 Holics_0716-Holics rom v1.0 even though i could have sworn i downloaded v1.2 but in the about phone section it says the software # is v1.0. Thanks in advance for any feedback!
I think it's an issue with Holics kernal. Try a different kernal. I like faux myself.

Okay so i got a little free time i downloaded another kernel and i put it onto the sd card. I then flashed the kernel through my pc using fastboot.
I then restarted the phone into recovery and tried to flash the zip file for the kernel that i downloaded and it keeps coming up with an error saying something like E:\ update pack not found. ( Or something along those lines) Any idea what that's all about?
