[Q] Can I use Froyo Radio 2.15.00.07.28 on a 2.1 ROM ex. Fresh 1.0.1? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can I use Froyo Radio 2.15.00.07.28 on a 2.1 ROM ex. Fresh 1.0.1
or does it have negative effects on the phone.. will like to update the Radio but don't want to upgrade to Froyo 2.2 until wifi tether works 100% with this build.
I have no 4G in my area so I figure I don't need to install the wimax WiMAX_26023_R01
If any info can be share on this I appreciate it.
Thank you..

I'm sure you can use the new radio with 2.1....as I have run 2.1 with it.....
As for the tethering, there's a newer version that work.

Thank you Campchi & BrianBusby2038 for the quick reply.. I will try them today after a nand backup

[Q] 3g not working well in Froyo built

With the leaked Froyo built is this happening to anybody else
No not that I know off, make sure you're running the latest radio, that is the one ending in .07.28.
With the updated radio both WiFi and 3g works better on 2.2
BTW if you are still running the leaked 2.2 why not just flash the official rooted updated one.

I did have this problem with the leaked 2.2, but I was screwing around with the cdma settings and roaming settings, I flashed official froyo release then radio and wimax, all three files from the netarchy official froyo post, poof 3g issues went by by
yea i hope the new RUU fixed thanks for the advice

Radio Rom Downgrade?

I have flashed the newer Radio Rom so i could flash a 2.2 rom, but am having same smallish issue with 2.2 roms.
If i go back to a 2.1 rom will i need to downgrade my radio rom to an older version or is it ok to use newer radio?
If going back to a 2.1 based rom, use one of the 4.xx.xx.xx radio's as they are intended for Eclair roms.
For Froyo 2.2 roms, use the relevant 5.xx.xx.xx radio.
The 5.xx.xx.xx radio's are not intended for Eclair roms so yes, you will have to downgrade back to 4.xx.xx.xx.

As far as I'm aware, the new radio is specific to froyo. It can cause some issues on 2.1 roms.
I'm sure I seen someone post that they had problems.
You can downgrade exactly the same way you updated anyway though. Just make sure you remember not to interrupt the flash.
Thank you for your answers MasDroid/socktug.
Does someone know where to download a 4.xx.xx.xx as all i can find are 5.xx.xx.xx radio roms.
You will find them HERE
Thank you again, have now downloaded 32.37.00.32U_4.06.00.16_2, will downgrade and back to 2.1 rom later.
Thanks again.

[Q] Old Hydra kernals?

I don't want to flash a new rom onto my phone because I don't want to set everything up again (at least not now). I do, however, want to install an UV SS hydra kernal onto my phone but I need an older .29 compatible hydra kernal (I believe 0.4?).
I have 2.1 stock, unrevoked 3+ forever, radio 2.15
Do I need to revert to 1.00 radio or 2.05? or will 2.15 radio work?
Any help will be greatly appreciated, I have been stuck for a while.
Just flash it as normal....I would use v8 hydra

thats weird, i got 2.15 radio and 2.5.2 skyraider, nothing wrong on my videos.
From what I understand for the earlier 0.4 and 0.9 hydra kernals you can use 2.1 with radio 1.00
The 2.15 radio is for 2.2 and 0.5 and 1.0 hydra
I would recommend using the v0.3 undervolt kernel from hydra as v0.4 moved up to kernel .32 which will not work with a stock 2.1 rom.
Please note the change logs for V0.4
"v0.4 - New kernel version 2.6.32. TUN is now a module."
I've tried it with v0.5 and found out quickly what was wrong after going through boot loops for 5 minutes
Since I'm new I can not post a link to the download but If you want the link I can send it to you in a private message.
I use the stock 1.x radio with s-off, I haven't found a need or want to update radio with the things I've been hearing, I know I would probably be fine, but I don't use the camcorder, and 2.2 runs fine with the 1.x radio.

[Q] 2.2 or CM7 on DEFY

I am new to the Android phone, and I purchase the Defy on last sunday, I like this phone and those function, but I am thinking to upgrade the firmware to 2.2, the salesman say it can be download 2.2 OTA at April, but after a week and there is still nothing.
So now I am thinking upgrade to CM7, one question, after installed the CM7, can it downgrade to the original 2.2 OTA?
Also I am focusing to the Hotspot feature. Is it work fine?
my phone version is
2.59.0.MB525.Retail.n.CH18
firmware version
2.1 update1
Yes, i have done that tomorrow. I don't like some modifications that i was used to, in the contact list, that have changed in the CM7. I'm gonna wait to another version to see if will get better what i want.
it seems like cm7 is still in beta-mode if i was u i would wait untill a stable verison comes out
If you don't want to be flashing fixes every other day i recommend not going with CM7. It runs great for light usage but it has many issues for now.
I recommend going with a 2.2 rom like my EphuNord. It is a clean Blurless 2.2 rom with a few modifications to allow easy themeing. I also uploaded around 8 themes.
If you follow the correct procedures you can always downgrade as far as 2.1 again if you need to.
thx for information, but which is the most stable for 2.2? I saw some post that some rom are not compatible?! Any recommandation? I want 2.2 or above.
I am lost on upgrade or not.
I want to update to ephnord 2.2
But want to downgrade back to 2.1
I am 2.51 uk(the phone came with it)
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
For Now 2.2 will be a better choice as the CM7 is its beta phases so let it come as a stable build...
N dude make sure while upgrading from 2.1 to 2.2 you does not lose ur downgradability and for that use the excellent work from fritolays so that u can downgade back to ur original firmware just by flashing 2.1 firmware of ur choice back...
Were can i find fritolays`s work,thanks in advance mate.
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
If you're newbie (or just want to use phone, not patch it every day), then better 2.2
fritolays's work here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=977989
EphuNord is also good choise for you. They both based on latest official leaked 2.2 and very stable.
Thank u so much

[Q] Updating radio Kinged Kingdom RLS 2.1

I have searched but cant find the answer I am looking for so I figured I would try. Sorry if you have heard it before. I want to know if when using a custom rom can you just flash a newer radio or WiMax to it or not?
Im currently running:
Radio 2.15.00.11.19
Kernel 2.6.35.10
PRI 1.90_003
I dont really understand what the PRI and the radio actually does so if anyone wants to point a noob in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it. I just see that there are newer updates and wondered if they were better 1, and 2 if i can use them with this awesome ROM I have been using. Thanks for any help!
Radio/pri are separate from roms, so you can flash them no matter what rom you are on. Check under About Phone to see what radio you are running, if its old, flash the new ones.
Is there one that is the best for each or is it the newer the better? Thanks.
