what you could try is:
take the rom from with you want to use the radio.
rename the .exe to .rar and extract it.
remove the biggest .nbh file.
run the updateutility.exe and hope it will flash (if it works then it only flash the radio)
remember that it will always hardreset the phone (it isn't a custom ruu)
oh and remember ! it is always at your own risk

But wouldnt that over write the rom on the device?

Ive extracted the rom using HTC ROM image editor.
I now have
GSM.nb
OS.nb
SPL.nb
I take it the Gsm.nb is the radio? but how do i create that into a image to flash?

oh no not that .
one more time
1) take a rom (the one with the radio you want)
example:
RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.69.401.01_Radio_5.54.09.21_22.33b.50.10_Signed_SCHUBERT_TEST.exe
2) rename .exe to .rar and extract.
3) now you have a folder with some files
4) delete "RUU_signed.nbh" from the folder.
5) run ROMUpdateUtility.exe

Extract with winrar.
Use nk.nbf, ms.nbf and radio.nbf. use all or just use the .nbf that you want to upgrade. put them into the same directory (folder) as your MaupgradeUt_noID as just run it.
Before that tho' put your phone on bootloader mode and connect to pc
via usb cable.

How to extract a RUU to get the nbh file?

I want to extract the HTC_S620_WWE_1.27.405.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe in order to get the EXCAIMG.nbh file.
The means? To copy it to a FAT32 formatted SD, plug it to the phone in bootloader mode and see if it works!
1- Install win rar
2- Extract the file
Voila
.NBH has been created

Go to
c:\users\<your user's name>\AppData\Local\Temp
Check thru date the last created directory
Don't forget to open first the update.
If you can't see the AppData directory, you need to change the folders settings to see hidden system files.

How do I un-root without a computer?

How would I go about pulling the files from http://rapidshare.com/files/3899834....651.1_Radio_1.39.00.04.26_release_171253.exe and flash back to stock using just the phone, not using the computer at all?
Why do you not want to use a computer? and why go back to stock?

Download the RUU zip from there and move it to the root of your sdcard (where u have all your other flashable zips) with a file manager and flash

grab the rom.zip file people have extracted from the RUU, put it on the root of your sdcard. rename it from rom.zip to PC36IMG.zip, reboot into the bootloader and it will analyze the PC36IMG.zip file and ask if you want to flash.
confirm yes and you'll be back to stock in no time!

exactly what this guy said, but to be more specific on how to do it, run the RUU executeable at the first screen minimize the application
do a "start>run" or a "<windows key> + r" and type in %temp% and hit ok, then search this folder for rom.zip and then rename it to PC36IMG.zip *care on if the .zip extension showing or not depending on your windows view settings* and copy it to the root directory of the sd card
restart the phone by power+vol down then it will search then ask you to flash, this whole part is extremely similar to steps in the flipz root method
like I said exactly what he said, just broken down like barney

Yeah, you should be able to re-root after un-rooting.

I ask because on the first post of How to root by toast it says at the end:
HOW TO RETURN BACK TO STOCK BUILD:
-Easy peasy- run the RUU in the first post of this thread. this is the only RUU that after flashing, you will still be able to root using this method. link below:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and there are different rom versions, I think this one has other Radio.
Any ways, i see this as a must have since you can go back to stock ROM on the go if you need it, for warranty/replace/exchange.
Here comes a stupid question. Where is the root on your sd card? Is it anywhere on the sd card or is it a certain directory?

These both require a computer which is not what was originally asked but good information non the less.

He is probably sitting in the Sprint parking lot wanting to exchange his phone and doesn't want to go back home to unroot.

Did what you said rebooted into bootloader but it wouldn't let me flash. What gives I have to unroot to get a new one. Thanks
Use the latest ZIP here:
http://goo-inside.me/evo/stock/RUU/
Move the ZIP from /sdcard/download to /sdcard and rename it to PC36IMG.zip. Check the MD5, then reboot into hboot.
I extracted the root then it top me its a older version can't do it
Sorry but what is MD5, and once downloaded do I have to extract it then flash?
Do not extract.
Do not flash.
Just do what I said to do.
Also, learn to search. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/MD5

[Q] Telstra bootanimation.zip

Hi,
Can any Telstra Desire users work out how to extract the bootanimation.zip? I want to port it to my Dell Streak because I'm using it on Telstra.
Thanks,
Kris

Krisbo, if you've got the Telstra ROM downloaded look for the bootanimation.zip file contained in it. You can open up the ROM with WinRAR search for it and simply extract the bootanimation.zip to a folder then check out the 'change your bootanimation' thread which gives instructions on how to use adb to send it to your device.
The only ROM I have is the RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Telstra_WWE_2.26.841.2_Radio_32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14_release_150162_signed.exe which I downloaded from HTC and that file is unable to be opened with WinRar
this thread http://androidforums.com/desire-all-things-root/213279-ruu-zip-possible.html tells you how to extract the zip from the ruu. once you have the zip, you should be able to find the bootanimation.zip within it.
The ROM.zip within an RUU is .IMG files that can't be opened - you need to use an online kitchen to unpack the IMG files to get the bootanimation.zip
Not that easy really

agreed - but might be the only option for the OP if he/we can't track down a Telstra ROM as a zip.

[Q] How to downgrade my radio?

I updated my radio but not quite happy with the result. I try the PD98IMG.zip method, but the bootloader tells me that the zip is corrupted and no flash process starts.
I am not quote sure what kind of s-off sI have, but the phone was rooted the old way, no htc unlock.
The first line reads
Ace PVT SHIP S-oFF RL
Is it safe to try the Windows fastboot method.
deckoff said:
Ok, I want to replace the radio II have, and I follow this instructions, but the flash process will not strat, fastboot says the img is invalid.
My question is - do I have to rename the zip I downloade, of the extracted img itself. I did it a few weeks ago but I cannot remmeber how I did it ??
I am downgrading!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
if the zip file you download contains the .img file and and .txt file. then yes, rename it PD98IMG.zip and put that in the root of your sdcard. Make sure that md5sum checks....flashing radios is a delicate thing.
For further help use the guide in my signature...
checksum is OK, I tried, but no txt file ??
I saw it mentioned once, but cant find a link to it, what does it have to contain, encoding, etc?
The txt file was the problem, I had to add it. Here it is for anyone who might need it.

It contains the update script...find in the guide in my signature that there is one PD98IMG.zip empty folder....put the radio .img file in there and do a normal compress....then flash it in the bootloader as mentioned.

Yeah, I managed to flash I just added the script for anyone trying to go my route, since all radios come zipped, but do not contain the txt file
PS Zips made on ubuntu will refuse to flash, ??

um...maybe the wrong compression in the zip file...it has to be normal compression.

Most probably, cos just dropping the txt file there will be no problems.
