Created a CWM zip with the Bell OTA GB radio and successfully flashed it.
if you use this feel free to let me know if it works for you.
Thanks to NFHimself as I believe it was his leaked radio zip (correct me if I am wrong as I can't find the thread I got it from) that I simply updated.

Just installed it over Alien ROM. Download speeds are comparable to .30P, upload speeds are a bit better. One noticeable improvement though is that it takes less time to achieve a data connection when the phone wakes up.
can this be flashed onto AT&T?

You can, but if you're on the ATT network and have an ATT phone, then you should probably stick with the ATT radio.
Why is that?

I believe it's because the ATT baseband version has been optimized to work with the ATT towers.
For sweets and giggles I flashed this on my phone running CM7 Pre Beta 4 on AT&T and I am getting .5mbps faster download and upload all around.
*NOTE*
Seeing as how we all live in different areas of the world everyone's results are going to differ tremendously. What works for me might be sweeter for someone else. So this is just a little word to the wise.
I am NOT telling anyone to flash this on their phone. I am simply saying IF you decide to flash it, you'll most likely get way different results than I did.
It's not my fault nor the guy who made this thread if you sweet your sweet up
could i test on International with Cm7 Pb4?

I haven't done extensive testing but when I first flashed this the reception at home was MUCH improved. Never ran any speed tests to get numbers.
Here at work where signal is quite poor due to radio equipment my signal is also quite a lot better. Speed tests were great from a relatively dead zone in the office too. Awesome!

2 questions, how is your phone's temperature? Specially when playing games or been using the phone for long time or multi tasking?
and if I didn't want to use it after flashing it how can I undo it?
Thx

The temperature's been fine but I haven't been paying a close eye. If it were anything out of the ordinary I'd pick up on it though.
You can flash a different radio if this isn't working out. N_01.11.30P is fantastic as well, but I think this may edge it out. If I'm not mistaken it sounds like the voice quality of calls have improved by quite a bit.

I just flashed this radio after i posted my question. Reception was never an issue for me anyways, so don't know if it has changed. I played HD game for a bit and same result as others, my phone's temp went up to 40 C in less than 10 minutes. I have not seen any radio which can fix this stupid heating problem. With Stock Froyo, never had to worry about temperature issue at all, ever since I have flashed different ROMS and kernels and radios, I haven't found any which is as good as the stock bell froyo.
Voice quality seems clearer and download speed seems a lil higher though.
I just got off the phone with my wife and this call quality has definite, definitely improved.
I talked to her at work in a relative dead zone and the call was quite clear as well. Thanks for sharing this radio!!

I just thought I'd mention this even though its a little off topic, but I love my Touch now with 2.2 on it. It does absolutely everything I ever wanted a phone to do, the app market is full of awesome and useful apps, super stable, and my god, the battery life is out of this world. I only wish it had a glass capacitive screen to be a little more scratch resistant and finger friendly. I'd never get rid of it when my contract is up next March if it had that.
I wanted to give a shout out to all the devs and dedicated testers to put the Vogue back on the cutting edge.

Incubus RLS9. But not for any good reason really. It was just the last 2.2 I installed and called it perfect at that point. I've probably flashed my phone 30 times so I needed to find something that worked and stick with it before I wore out the NAND.
I'm considering buying a cheap used Touch to try this out instead of the phone I am using now on Sprint. How well does Android work on the Touch? Are there any downsides or things that don't work? What's the battery life like?
Thanks!

You should try it.
Everything works except for camcorder. Battery lasts a full day easily.

believe it or not I am running 2.1 because it allows me to send mms on sprint. RLS3 allowed me to but something changed in the other builds and I cant mms anymore.

Just keep in mind the screen is small and text input without the stylus can be annoying in portrait mode sometimes. But other than that, ace has it right. Everything works cept camcorder though I never used that myself so I don't care.

yea Incubus posted an RIL that had the old APNs settings so it didnt disappear i was able to send mms with it like that. if i get a chance i will upload it if not i know there was a thread about it a little while back
I'm running the themed release10 with the new NBH file and I LOVE it. Other than the GPS (verizon issue...) it's perfect. I am very grateful that people are spending the time to make this phone so much better!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dude don't give up. The gps on vzw is fixable. Have you tried the fix listed in the faq thread. Worked for me. Sry for the punctuation my touch pro kbd isn't working all the way in xdandroid.

I am currently using a Palm Treo 755p so I am completely new to this. In terms of functionality, what is the difference between running it from the SD card and doing the NAND method. The SD install seemed pretty straightforward and the NAND version seemed more complicated. I am pretty tech savvy but have never installed a new OS on a mobile phone before. Can anyone provide a link to a simple straightforward instructions for installing via NAND? Also, which release should I be installing? I see people talking about more than one.
Thanks so much for your help!
Awesome. I'm getting a used touch [$50 ftw] for Froyo on it. Thanks a lot to everyone who posted.
Just a small thing, does SMS work as it should? I'm pretty much intending to make the Touch my No.1 phone, and SMS is a major factor. So, all apps work, including Wi-Fi? Impossible.
The touch does not have wifi capabilities , but SMS works great!

My name is Brian, I'm a member here obviously.... Had the username BFielding a while back, registered in 2007 if I remember correctly, but can't access or retrieve password for that account, different email now, so now I'm BFielding80...
Heres my problem... I can't get SH!T for help on this site, maybe because it's so overloaded, or maybe some a$$hole said dont help this person.... IDK
All I know is I ask a question and they RARELY get answered.... I'm at the point I'LL ****1N PAY U TO ANSWER MY QUESTION, I'VE BEEN ASKING THE SAME [email protected] QUESTION LONG ENOUGH...
I need radio help. I'm rooted, I run all the ROMs, always Froyo based.... I've never updated my radio from what it came with.... I have radio 32.26.00.24H_4.04.00.03_2
I haven't updated because I don't want to kill my AT&T 3g.... I've read that the TMo Froyo radio will kill my AT&T 3G so thats why I left my radio alone.... But now I'm reading that the newer radios are compatible either way, so I want to upgrade it.
I know I can go back if it does kill my 850/1900, but I would rather someone to just please just recommend me a radio as well as link, I'll adb it myself...
I need a radio for best 3G and battery life would be a plus, but 3G is more important, in my area I drop to edge frequently...
THE PERSON WHO HELPS ME WILL RECEIVE $10 US DOLLARS VIA PAYPAL
Thanks,
Brian
Well, I don't want your money but you should be fine flashing this new radio (32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04). Some people say they get improved battery life and some don't. Most seem to get better reception.

There is where you will get the newest radio image, it is identical to the one found in the Desire 2.2 update. You do not have to update HBOOT if you do not want to, though I could be wrong on that one, though I didn't have to when I did.
If you do not want this version of the radio as some people have trouble with it you can flash the radio that was uploaded by enomther:

Heh, no that is all right. By the way, I kept editing my post a fair bit, sorry.
So there are two 2.2 radios you could flash. The newer one does give you better reception though, I use the 4.06 one though, if you were curious.

I have a tmo n1 and I noticed better reception with the korean radio but I've noticed some roms don't give me better reception but sometimes WORSE. I'm on rodriguez r21 limemod using the 5.06 radio. Works well. Just one off those trial and error things. If you re on edge instead of 3g try the *#*#4636#*#* trick just remember if u you use wcdma only and lose 3g u lose all service and have to change back to wcdma preferred. Good luck...

The ROM shouldn't affect your reception to my knowledge. You may have different APNs set and that could cause issues but even that is a stretch.
What 5.06 radio? 4.06 or 5.08?
Just put both radios on my SD, I'll update through RA recovery, but yall think adb is better?

They both should have the same end result. I usually flash through recovery but to each his own. See which one you like better make sure you checked the MD5sum and make sure they match up.

you should not see any major difference between the two radios when it comes to battery life. i've been using 5.08 since it came out, i have a much more stable signal and battery life is the same for me.
you can also downgrade ur radio whenever you want... just flash the old radio through recovery... you'll be ok
Fastboot is, IMO, the most reliable way to flash a radio. I would rather not leave a brickable upgrade/downgrade up to a script, but that's just my paranoia kicking in. lol.

I know there isn't an outstanding support for the Cellular South Hero, but I'm having trouble finding ROMs, themes, and such for my phone. Maybe its because I'm new to rooting, so often times I don't know what I'm looking at and I'm scared to try anything without seeing smething like This works with Cellular South Heros, I can't find a lot for my phone. So I was wondering: is there any way we could get a subtopic in this forum for Cellular South users?
On another note, what roms and themes DO work with my Hero? Currently I'm using Danger 2.1.
Almost all of them. You might get somw sprint logos but it still works on cellsouth. Southpaw is also made for cs

After you flash and boot up be sure to dial *228 or *22899 if you wanna skip the computer voice and go straight to updating your PRL
I take no credit for any of these. I just compiled the three I had on my computer since a bunch of links are down and uploaded them.
Credit goes to these guys:

Holy Crap that was scary. Got my heart racing. Flashed the Evo radio and so far so good. Plan on using an Evo ported theme as well. Ahhhhhhhhhh
Please check your links, the evo radio's md5 is matching the leaked froyo radio.
Here, use this for the EVO radio.

I've been using the Evo (11.19) radio on my phone for a while, and while it only slightly improved my signal, my battery life has been significantly increased, and my phone feels all-around smoother (could be the placebo effect though.)
Flashed it with no issues, I think everyone should give it a shot at least.

Thanks for pointing this out, I was multi tasking as I was doing this and since they are all the same name I thought I had the right one. Mediafire doesn't seem to want to let me upload anymore stuff. If anyone else notices a bad link let me know and I will find another place to upload it. Sorry for the confusion folks.

As bilbobrian pointed out the Evo radio link was the wrong one (i believe) go to menu>settings>about phone and check your baseband, if it isn't ending in 11.19 it isn't the evo radio and you should download from the new link provided by RegnierD. Since I haven't the bandwidth right now to verify it make sure you do an md5 check on it (you should *always* do this anyway) but don't worry the 09.01 radio came from the Evo as well and the 11.19 (new evo radio) has been tested by plenty.

I was using 11.19 for a bit (i went from 07.28 to 11.19) while 11.19 was better than 07.28 I decided to try 09.01 and my dBm got quite a bit better and my data speeds almost doubled.
This link has a 7.28 without the recovery in it with a working md5. I flashed it last night. http://dougpiston.com/?page_id=71
The 2.15.00.09.01 link is wrong. It downloads the 11.19 radio. Md5 is the same also.
I reupped them all. Renamed the file name a little so i wouldn't get links messed up again. downloaded and checked the md5's. all is good. Sorry about that guys, mediafire wasn't fun to mess with so i switched over to dropbox to get 'em right.
Just trying to give ya guys a place to download some radios since adrenalynes are down.
Edit: Also keep checking those md5's guys. This is a great example of that. Had these guys not checked the md5's they woulda flashed the wrong radio.

Thanks for putting this up.
I love dropbox. Integrates so well. Only small complaint is you can't link a folder just files.
I wish dev's would use it more. So much less obnoxious with the direct download link. 2GB is plenty for apps/radios/roms/etc. Easy to get bonus free space. Free for life.
Added radio 2.05.00.06.11
i dled the 11.19 evo radio and my text messaging started getting 10 min delays, then 20 min delays and sometimes none. i flashed back to the official 7.28 radio to see if that solved the problem, and no it didnt. any ideas from anyone?

No idea. Something to do with your area at the moment? While I had the 11.19 radio flashed my text messages kept sending to people garbled up, it has done it once since I switched back so I figure it wasn't the radio. You may need to post this in Q&A so hopefully someone more knowledgable than me can help you.
7.28 provides a much more stable signal reading than 11.19 does. I finally made it around the same drive I took when I watched the signal on the 11.19 with the 7.28 and the 7.28 stayed at -54 the whole time. The 11.19 stayed at -77. Big difference over the same stretch of I-40.
How long will this take? I figure since people are doing battery pulls rather then waiting this must take a while.
Ten minutes maybe. It isn't a complicated thing to do in itself you just need to do some verifying of file integrity and follow the steps. People battery pulling are just TO impatient IMO. Sometimes things can go wrong though.
Thanks, signal sucks in my area and my battery is constantly dying trying to keep a signal. .45Mbps download is about average on my Dinc.

any word on how well the 6.11 radio works in comparison to 7.28 and 11.19?
Heya Folks,
I followed the instructions from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...43&postcount=1 and applied them to the services.jar from the latest build of MIUI.
See the attached flashable .zip file. I strongly suggest making a nandroid backup due to this being my first attempt at doing this. It booted just fine on my device.
Let me know if it works!

I think a bit of clarity is needed here. This mod will only stop Verizon from slowing down your data speeds.
It will NOT help you avoid overage charges.
For example let's say you're on a 250mb a month plan. This mod only ensures that you will get 250mb at unrestrcited speeds. Going over 250mb will still result in an overage charge.
Also, the reason people keep referring to 5gb on their "unlimited" plan is because Verizon starts to throttle data speeds after 5gb of data. That doesn't mean you get charged more, Verizon just slows you down. This mod will prevent that, and only that.
I hope that clears things up.

interesting, and thank you!?

Heya,
Only way to test would be to run a speedtest.net over your 3g connection before and after flashing. My 3G sucks here so I can't really test it. I followed it step by step going off of the instructions however.
Just curious if anyone tested this? I know the zip works just curious if anyone has played around with it. My 3g sucks where I live so I feel it isn't an accurate test here

I don't think you will notice a difference, I thought this mod pretty disabled throttling after you use 5GB of data in a month

Can't speak for the MIUI, but SR 3.5 showed significant improvements.
Guess it doesn't hurt to give it a shot.
So can this be flashed to any rom? I have a droid x and I am using the Liberty rom.
No, it is ROM specific.
I tried this patch on 1.1.7 N1 services.jar and got a FC in settings>system>Mobile Network settings. Does a similar thing happen on 12.24 Dinc?
No, this particular thread only worked for 12.24 for the incredible...

No, because there is no difference and flashing this on any rom does nothing but break your one settings menu as mentioned.
As has been previously stated this feature is not actively used by verizon, if it was used you would see a notification icon in regards to it when it is enabled as that is part of the code.
This feature was built by google as an option for carriers should a large majority of customers use android devices, but the bottom line is if vzw wants to throttle your data they do it at the account/network level. Not on your device. Any improvement people report from making this change is a complete placebo / fluke or just a fluctuation in their signal quality / network congestion at the time.
