is posible to change/flash other base band radio - Motorola Droid 3

As my question, is it possible to change the baseband or/and radio on the xt862 rom by the radio of the xt883 rom ?
I try to implement the radio img in the xt862 rom, the flash is correctly, but when the phone boot, there is not signal.
I have somme probleme on the xt862 rom about the bdm and the mms (don't sent), and on the xt883 i haven't this problem but other problem (with sync, and some application).
Thanks for share....

CID/SIM unlocking 3600

I´ve a HTC 3600 and installed Hard-SPL Olipro 1.20 then executed the application for releasing the Sim and CID restrictions of my HTC.
I keept the WM5 ROM and tested the device. The Sim is now unlocked, i suppose so is CID, how can I check this before installing a new cooked ROM?
My gps was working fine, now I can´t get gps signal, do I need a radio update? Which is recommended? Did the sim unlocking process downgraded my radio rom
ROM: 1.23.410.2
RADIO: 1.16.00.00
thanks in advance
you are right
Unlocking P3600 downgrades the radio...
Therefore you cannot use GPS until you upgrade the radio again.
Take a look here, http://trinityguides.info/index.php , choose a gps enabled radio and upgrade...
Thanks, I also thought that.
Which of the Radio Rom´s should I choose?
Radio 1.38.00.11
Radio 1.41.00.11
Radio 1.46.00.11/30.11
Radio 1.50.08.11
How I can I check if my CID was succesfully unlocked? I want to install a new ROM with a different language.
If you installed hard spl on your device, it doesn't matter if you have cid unlocked or not, cause hardspl let's you install any rom in any language.
As for the radio, it depend's on your carrier and the country you are in.
I see you are in Portugal so you can use the latest version (Radio 1.50.08.11), it works just fine for me.
Humm, I´ve read that the latest ROM cause mora battery drain than the others, is this true?
What improvements are present in the latest ROM´s compared to 1.38 ?

Calls with updated Radio

I updated the Diamond with the new radio version .05 to use the device purchased in India on AT&T's network in the US. While I am able to see that the device is operating on the 850 band, I am still unable to make or receive calls some times in some areas.
Can anyone tell me how this can be fixed? Is a ROM update required along with a radio update?
its not required but you are running a new rom, right?
Thanks Blazeitup. The version of the ROM I am using is 1.37.720.2 that shipped with the phone. The radio version was 1.00.25.03 that I updated to 1.00.25.05.
After I did the hard SPL and updated the radio, the ROM version that I show when the phone starts is 1.37.00.00 but the ROM version in the "Device Information" is 1.37.720.2.
The signal strength is great but can not make or receive calls.
Cant help you with your problem but I will be facing the same problem soon...i do have a question for you though... after you upgraded your radio, was your phone still locked to airtel? I have it unlocked for vodafone india and i need to upgrade the radio to enable 850mhz.
Why dont you give .08 radio a try. It is newer than .05.
Give it a shot.
it might help.
Luck

updating just the radio

Hi,
Is it possible to update just the radio on my diamond? I already have a new hardspl and dont want to have to flash all over again so i lose everything, as all i want to do is flash to a different radio version.
Is this possible?
Thanks gyro
not sure about diamond but a normal flash with just the radio.nbf file would do just that
All radio ROM's that I know of only contain the radio file, so flashing it will only upgrade (or change, because you can downgrade the radio as well) your radio and not your 'ROM'.

[Q] What is a Radio?

What exactly is a radio(the one you can flash via task00,i know what an FM radio is ) and what does flashing a different radio change on my phone?

[Q] Vivid Radio ROMs?

I'm trying to find radio roms for my Vivid. (Telstra Australia varient)
I can't get 4g/lte, the phone radio just dies when I'm in 4g areas. I want to flash a new radio rom. Both Telstra (the phone) and the carrier I'm with Optus both use the same band/frequency and such I should probably just need to use any recent telstra radio rom.
I've searched but can't find any vivid radio roms. Where are they?

I'm not an expert, but I believe flashing radios is more of a hassle than regular ROMs. The radio is in a protected partition, which is not modifiable without S-OFF (or maybe some very specific and unknown code from the carrier). I also recall reading that the radio is on a different CPU (FCC regulations?), and that the phone first boots the radio through that CPU, and once that's ok, THEN the main CPU is activated to boot the rest of the phone. So if you screw up your radio, it could be very bad.
I found this thread kind of discussing flashing radios:
