[Q] How can I update my radio? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Basically I haven't kept up with the rooting and xda community since early this summer. I have a custom ROM with radio 2.05 and I want to update to 2.15 because my phone has had some signal issues and I'm thinking this is it. I am not s-off and from what I'm reading I have to have that to update the radio correct?
Any help would be appreciated.

Check this out, and be sure to fallow the instructions. Be careful, fashing a radio is about the easiest way to brick your phone. Be sure to check md5 sums, have a decent charge and don't pull the battery. Hope this helps.

Yes you need s-off. Use unrevoked forever.

I've not kept up with radio updates lately. Ready now though.
Any other sites mirroring 2.15.00.11.19 or 2.15.00.09.01? I've been searching for a few hours because Adrenaline's links are down...

No you do not need to update hboot, but you do need to be s-off. The only way to update the radio if your s-on is to do a complete ruu, whic will update everything to the latest ota.

What radio are you using now?
This should be in the Q&A section.
But from what I understand you won't brick your device by flashing the same radio twice.
What radio

Not yet. Keep an eye on the Dev forum, though and I'm sure something will pop up soon.
Remember, do not accept any OTA's if you are rooted!!!
Do you need the lastest ota ruu. 4.67? That's what I'm getting out of this. I have that if you need it.

I believe the OP is referring to the 5.07.651.1 update, which is supposed to install the new Connection Manager.
It's supposed to have been rolling out already, but I haven't seen it yet.

You will brick your phone most likely. If you have a rooted phone, and you want the new OTA you shou8ld wait for a dev to include it in their latest rom. The most recent ota, from what I understand is a connection manager and the only usefull feature it turning off soe radios. There are already several good apps out there that do that for people, so imo you don't need the newest ota.

This probably depends on how one rooted. I rooted mine on froyo just before the GB update with Unrevoked Forever and I've run every OTA since then. Just have to reflash recovery and superuser afterwards.
I wouldn't want to have to buy an Iphone.

Tried to flash new combo update
I just flashed the combo update of the most recent radios, PRL, and such. I wiped very well as always. Went to reboot and it just goes to the black screen with the round circle arrows in the middle. Won't even let me boot into bootloader to get to recovery to restore my nand backup. Using Amon RA 3.11. Rooted s-off. Was running the newly updated blue merge rom from Team Nocturnal. PLEASE, does anyone have any answers?

Good luck! Sincerely hope to restore your love phone.

Make sure you rename it to PG32IMG.zip
Just so you know the correct current Verizon PRI 1.94_002, this file will not fix your device, it will downgrade it though.

I'm also having trouble with Unrevoked. My HBoot is in s-on. After attempting to run unrevoked and getting the "firmware too new" error message as well.

if you can access to recovery it ll work.
use bl-tool to relock and set supervision
and make goldcard
and if you can't access to recovery just relock it with cmd
then make goldcard
that's it.
my HBOOT version was same still i could able to make it lower with ruu.

He wants to return to stock. Meaning he wants a proper ruu. A flashable zip isn't technically considered stock.
So the other stuff I added into the original post were useless?

Haven't you heard of Kitchen? Crossfire has probably used kitchen to make the stock roms in this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2143410 Flashing the non rooted one is just a back up of a fresh European Rom turned in to a zip and the process of flashing the zip is way more efficient and easier than re-locking the bootloader and then flashing ruu which may take 10mins+.
