updated radio for D1? - Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh

I've been off of D1 for a while but want to give it to my wife to use. Is there a Radio thread that lists current updated radio for the D1? TIA

is there such thing?

Found the answer in Droid Forums. FYI:
The latest baseband/radio is C_01.43.01p
Peter Alfonso has them

Radio Updates
Usually I use the Droid Forums as well or I google search baseband radio version for A855 Droid or something similar to that. I do have sites pertaining to PRL's though if you're interested. Try to keep searching.

Root Canadian 3G Nexus One

I am curious I have the Rogers Wireless version of the Nexus One in the mail.
I can't get a definitive answer on if cyanogenmod will work on it without a problem?
I sure hope this isn't like the Rogers version of the G1.
Thanks,
Not at all like the Rogers Dream. The AT&T/Rogers version (I have read), is identical to the Tmo, except offers Rogers/AT&T 3G Band, 850mhz.
Procedure is the same as written elsewhere. You can skip the step for upgrading radio, I believe the newer N1's shipped with the newest radio. I don't have the instructions, followed the CM wiki. Just remember to skip the radio update part of the instructions. I believe the radio update allows root on stock ROM. When you upgrade to CM ROM for example, it is already rooted, which is why you can bypass this step.

Yes, you can install CM and it will work without any problems... essentially, the devices are the same, except for the radio... which is why there is a new RIL library and firmware module...
CM 5.0.5+, Enom 1.7.1, MCR 1.9+, ModacoDesire A16+ are all compatible with the new N1 and have the latest RIL & Firmware module...
And yeah, the new N1 has the latest radio image, so you don't have to update/faslh the radio...

No!!! DON'T DO IT!!! You're phone will be bricked!
J/K... this question has been asked a dozen times and a search would have yielded an answer in 10 seconds for you.

I wonder how radically different the Canadian N1 is to the US N1!
The only risk/problem you will expose yourself with tinkering is if you mess up with flashing the radio firmware. I used the latest cyanogen, recovery, and bootloader all while retaining the original radio firmware. (why fix it if it aint broken?)

[Q] I need a Radio Baseband ZIP to Flash

Okay... let me start by saying, I Love everyone here, and you all have helped mod my phone to great lengths... and my phone is working GREAT!
I am on an ALLTEL CDMA HERO200
Rooted with CM6.1
After I originally rooted my phone, and before I installed CM6.0 ...I upgraded my radio baseband from 2.42.01.04.23 to 2.42.01.04.27
and now upgraded to CM6.1 ROM / Android OS 2.2.1
I have the circular battery mod, as well as custom notification icons
and my signal is always 2 bars sometime 3 and never 4
My question is this... I just now realized that the radio I upgraded to is for SPRINT and I am on ALLTEL... like I said before the phone work fine
but I started looking for a download for the 2.42.01.04.23 radio baseband that I originally had because I was wondering if going back to 2.42.01.04.23 from 2.42.01.04.27 would give me a better signal since the 2.42.01.04.23 is for ALLTEL...
would going back to my original radio baseband make any difference is my signal strength and if so, does anyone have a download for the radio baseband version 2.42.01.04.23, as all I have is the 2.42.01.04.27 version...

NO! flashing a GSM (not CDMA, like sprint) radio is the only confirmed known way to brick. The OP also said his phone was working, so not bricked.
To the OP! my best advice would be to send a PM to member hexskrew, he has built alltel roms, so I assume he has whatever the newest alltel radio is, good luck to you

Thanks for the advice and pointing me to someone who may be able to assist...
and yeah I definitely dont want a GSM radio, lol
If you happen to find a version of the alltel radio, could you PM me or post it, i need it also. Im not having any luck finding one. My data has suddenly stopped working and i think if i update the radio it might fix my problem.
From what I've come up with, AFAIK the radio is just an algorithm of sorts that tells the radio (hardware) in the phone how to search for a signal, and how much power to output in order to find it... so I don't think an Alltel radio will help you much. Just experiment with them.

Would the 2.42.02.10.29 Sprint CDMA Hero Radio update work on non-Sprint networks?

Hi all!
I have a CDMA Hero, that can run and is running Sprint branded ROMs with no issues. My service is through a regional carrier called Carolina West Wireless to make it clear, not Sprint. I've run several Sprint branded ROMs and currently have AOSP 2.3.2 without any issues with roaming or anything like that.
My question just is would the 2.42.02.10.29 radio update, as posted by theimpaler747, work for me? Reading through the threads I can't see where this has come up so I hope I'm not repeating a question.
Thanks!
I already upgraded this version radio, looks like no side effect and impact. But I don't know what improvement or bug fix for new version. BTW, I'm from China, using Carrier China Telecom.
AS long as you stick with a cdma hero radio, you can flash it fine. At one point, people here were even flashing a verizon radio from the eris, and it worked fine
Thanks for the responses, I flashed the new radio, no problem!

[Q] Milestone with US ATT Custom ROM

I have been looking for an answer to this and if it has been answered before, point me to the thread.
I'm using a Telus Milestone here in the US with ATT. I have GOT OR 2.01 loaded on my milestone and it's rooted in everything. Now the next step would be to pick a firmware for 2.2.1. However, There is nothing listed for ATT or US at all for that matter.
Should I use Telus's Firmware? And will it still work with ATT? I want to load some custom roms, but I'm a bit stuck. Thanks for any input.
You should use Telus firmware. Or any firmware you like, but flash Telus baseband on top in order to get it working on AT&T
Check in milestone Android development thread, there are few choices available (roms), pick one. There is still no official Froyo rom for Milestone though. Most of the custom roms available are nearly fully functional.

Thank you very much. I wanted to try it, but I didn't want to guess, be wrong, and be screwed. Thats all I needed!

[Q] Clarification with U.S.A. Streak 7 HC Upgrade

After 3 Days of reading and digesting all of the information I could find here, I need help in clearing up a few questions. Hopefully no one will rip into me too bad but here we go!
1)Ive seen an "official" USA wifi update on the forums here, has this actually been DL'd in the US or was it taken from the EU release?
2)For any of us that have been running DJ Steves Honeystreak and have downgraded with NVFLASH back to stock Dell Froyo 2.2.2 been able to just DL official HC 3.2 from dell via factory update methods?
3)In reguards to the service tags not matching on USA wifi models that have been downgraded with NVFLASH back to factory froyo 2.2.2. If a USA factory upgrade is attempted , has there been any problem with that? Specifically related that there is indeed a USA update available.
For some these questions may seem elementary. But with all of the reading that I have done I cant seem to find definitive answers to these questions.
As always thanks in advance for all of the help I find here. And any help would be greatly appreciated.

In regards to question 1, yes the Wifi version for the US has been officially released, however depending upon the build will determine whether or not your tabled has been tagged as for an upgrade.
On question 2, if you completely converted back to stock then you shouldn't have an issue with update as Dell can't see that you were not anything but stock.
On question 3, try doing a system restore to see if the tablet's tag changes to what yours should be, if not a couple of solutions have been posted in the past few days on what you can do to make it match. The update may not even look at the system tag but simply at the build.
Hope I've provided some answers to your questions, if not someone else may come along and add to this thread.
