Went from Myn's Warm Z to CM7 to Myn's 2.2 RLS5. I can't seem to get the latest radio version to show.
After flashing 2.2 RLS5 and followed the steps below:
Downloads:
Download Warm TwoPointTwo RLS 5 (Mirror 1) (Mirror 2) - [MD5sum: ba1cc1aed1d8161e3429909470bd7eb4]
As this ROM now uses the latest official HTC Kernel (#15) you MUST update your Radio/Wimax. I recommend Calkulin's combo update which is available here or via direct download here.
Installation Instructions:
Download Rom and Radio/Wimax updates and place in the root of SDCard.
Reboot into Recovery.
Perform Nandroid backup
Minimally wipe dalvik and cache. For optimal experience, perform full wipe (data/dalvik/cache).
Flash the rom first.
Then the radio/wimax update. While the radios are flashing you'll see a little green arrow phone icon for a bit afterwords, Wait on this. You will then automatically be taken back to recovery.
Once back in recovery, reboot.
Enjoy
But after following those steps exactly, I check my baseband version and it is still on 2.15.00.09.01 instead of 2.15.00.11.19
Can anyone tell me where I may have gone wrong? Or any other suggestions?
Are you using clockwork mod recovery or amon ra? I was having a similar issue using clockwork and I tried it again using amon ra and it worked...

Using clockwork... never used Amon Ra before, not familiar with it at all. I'll look into and see what happens. Thanks for the reply, really appreciate it.
In the meantime, please reply with any other experiences or suggestions.

I also suggest using Amon RA recovery. Make the switch, and then try flashing the radio update again.

i third that. i used clockwork just because it came with my root method (unrevoked) but after having edify issues i flashed to amon ra and havent looked back since. for some reason clockwork complicates something as easy as flashing a simple zip file where as amon ra just makes flashing a simple zip file easy.
Amon Ra is so much better IMO. I got nothin against CWM, but Amon Ra has been flawless for me.
Just for the sake of information. I flashed using that exact same method, using CWM, and everything went off w/o a hitch. However, after all these Amon Ra lovers, I kinda do want to check that out.
thanks for all of the suggestions everyone.
I ended up taking your advice and using Amon RA and it worked! Thanks again.
It is worth noting that when flashing the radios with CWM, I did not see the little green phone icon as described in the instructions. Which I am assuming means that I never REALLY flashed the radios. Although it did seem to flash it, and returned to the main menu of the recovery.
Flash the rom first.
Then the radio/wimax update. While the radios are flashing you'll see a little green arrow phone icon for a bit afterwords, Wait on this. You will then automatically be taken back to recovery.
Once back in recovery, reboot.
Only difference with Amon RA's was that after flashing the radio zip from the sd card, it instructed me to reboot in order to continue the installation of the radio zip.
Anyway, it worked, and thanks to everyone who replied.
Glad you got your issue resolved. I see your kinda new here. Proper forum protocol is to physically click the "Thanks" button for the people that helped you. Just a heads up.

I would flash Clockwork as I have found it to be problem-free and easy to navigate using one button at a time.
Personal preference.
I agree its still about preference but clockwork had proven to not wipe properly, and some devs suggest using armon. Either way happy flashing

In the OP for Netarchy's kernal. the Snap or the 2.2 fps fix kernal. He states that clockwork does not wipe dalvik and data completely and recommends amon ra. I myself use clockwork and have never had a problem.

I had the dark cherry theme for CM6 RC1 installed on my phone and then went on to the nightlies. Tried to factory reset / dalvik twice before installing the nightly to make sure the theme was gone. When i finished the nightly, the icons that were replaced by the theme were still there, so no, clockwork doesn't wipe completely, it wipes, just not absolutely everything it should. Using latest version via rom manager.
Hi all. Im having a strange problem with flashing roms. I am not new to this and have been problem free for a while. I went from fresh 3.4 to myns rls4. Then went to fresh 3.5 and tried to go back to myn from there. I use clockworkmod and recently updated to 3.0.0.0. I have tried flashing the roms in rom manager and by booting up in recovery. I was able to load a backup and am currently set up as follows:
unrevoked forever (used 3.21 before reading forever might fix this issue)
fresh 3.4
netarchy kernel
bootloader screen
supersonic evt3 ship s-off
hboot-0.97.0000
micro-041f
touch panel-atmelc03_16ac
radio-2.15.00.09.01
Heres what it says when I try to install any rom. All roms do and say the same thing.
clockworkmod recovery v3.0.0.0
installing
finding update package
opening update package
installing update...
installation aborted.
This is from flashing while in recovery using volume down and power button method. Any advice?

i think that clockwork 3.0 is causing problems
At OP: I Clockwork 3.0 appears to have some bugs. Hold on tight.
@aimbdd: You're not a mod, nor did you help at all (in answering the question or telling him what you did). You're actually FAR worse than he is. If you're not going to post something productive, please don't post.

I had to do the same. I'm using RA as a result
Reading clockworkmods tweets it appears the new clockwork is only for the new hboot and doesn't work with the older hboots. Install amon ra 1.8 and you should be golden. You won't be able to use rom manager after you install aman ra.
I'm running CM7 with Clockworkmod 3.0.0.5. Im trying to flash the latest radio, so i need to flash back to a Clockworkmod 2.x.
But the thing is Rom manager already says my current recovery is 2.5.0.7. But when i actually reboot into recovery its definitely still 3.0.0.5. I've tried to flash all of the older versions of Clockworkmod available in Rom manager, and it says they flash correctly, and rom manager even reports that my clockworkmod version is the one i tried to flash. But when i reboot into recovery it hasnt changed.
Ive even tried to flash amon ra through rom manager and that did nothing.
I have "erase recovery" checked in settings. I tried to fix permissions. I've rebooted and even wiped data. Ive gone into market and uninstalled the updates to go back to rom manager 3.x but that didnt fix the problem. Ive wiped dalvik cache and that didnt work either.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
If not, does anyone have a link to a clockworkmod 2.x recovery.img so i can just manually flash it through fastboot? ive looked around everywhere but i cant seem to find one.
so i restored a really old backup of cm6 (which has rom manager 3.x), which i didnt even think was possible with CWM 3 and edify scripting, flashed amon ra in rom manager, and once i rebooted into recovery it was actually amon ra. i flashed the radio and all seems well. not sure why CM7 with rom manager 4 wouldnt correctly flash a recovery, but it seems resolved for me at least.
For future reference, it is just as easy and recommended to load amon RA via the bootloader as it is from the ROM Manager app.

whats really the difference between flashing through the bootloader, flashing through rom manager, flashing through fastboot, or flashing through the command line with flash_image?
Obviously rom manager has problems, thats what this whole post is about. But as long as it actually does the flash there shouldnt be difference between the different methods of flashing should there?
You basically answered the question. It's not that ROM Manager is incapable, there have been times when it failed to flash recovery and there have been times when it didn't contain the latest RA recovery. Yea, those things are minor, but it is enough for me to discard using it. Besides, I'm always in the recovery itself so it is only natural for me to do everything from within recovery or the bootloader. But, to each his or her own.

Can i ask why you prefer amon ra over clockwork mod? Does one offer an advantage over the other? Does RA support edify scripting?
I was a faithful ClockworkMod user when I first rooted my device. I had no problems and no intention to switch until around version 3.x.x.x. after that, I started having issues with it not wiping properly so I switched over to amon RA. Although those problems have since been corrected, I have become quite accustomed to amon RA and until it fails me, I will stick with it. Furthermore, there have been times when people's devices have failed to properly boot or wouldn't allow access to recovery until they flashed amon RA. I like its menu layout and how well it works, but that's just me...
posting & replying via the XDA Premium app.
I've been using Amon RA basically since i've had my incredible, but recently with all these new roms, specifically the 3.0/3.5 roms, they seem to be only CWM compatible, and i was trying to switch back to CWM through ROM manager. It says it has been installed but everytime i boot into recovery, its just going to Amon RA. So i was wondering how i could install this manually? There seems to be a way to do it through ABD, but i have no experience with this, plus all instructions using this method i see seem to be for PC's, I have a MAC...
Any help is appreciated, thanks!
Try the PB31IMG versions from http://dougpiston.com/?page_id=85
Do you have "erase recovery" checked in the settings? It clears your recovery before flashing a new one. I know a lot of people have had issues upgrading versions of CWM because that box wasn't checked.

tried checking the erase the recovery box, did not work, but flashing it as a pbimg worked. Thanks guys!

I successfully rooted my phone a few days ago using the Revolutionary method and flashed ClockworkMod Recovery without a problem. Then I flashed CyanogenMod 7.1.0 again without a problem. I noticed my gps has been having an issue detecting my location so I figured I should flash the nandroid for my stock rooted android 2.3.3 rom and see if the issue still exists. My main problem is that I can't boot into recovery. Apparently I have the latest version of Clockwork. I try to boot into recovery using different methods and I keep ending up at the white screen that says 'Revolutionary' in pink at the top with the 3 skateboarding androids at the bottom. I try to get to recovery from that screen also still with no success. It just reboots into that screen. I was thinking I may have to use the ruu to unroot my Evo (I rather find an alternative solution). How can I regain my ability to boot into recovery? Any help would be much appreciated...

If grab the pc36img for amon_ra, throw it in the root of your SD, using a card reader in a computer, get into hboot and let it install. Then try to get into recovery. F clockwork anyway.....90% of the peeps around here having problems are running that recovery

Turn off your phone,then when turning it on hold the volume rocker in the down position,you will then boot into hboot settings,hboot will automatically check for the update file(PC36IMG)after its done,scroll to recovery and enter that way,if you still cant get into recovery,you will need to download and reinstall the latest revolutionary root tool,i recommend using "TeamWin Recovery Project" i've never had a problem with it.

I installed a new recovery after i installed revolution,because i also had recovery issues.The version should be at the top of the recovery screen.I didnt like rom manager too much,for some reason it gives me problems.
They say that this version of Amon can be used to restore clockwork backups. I haven't tried it with clockwork myself because I avoids clockworkmod.
Thanks for the help everyone. Everything is gravy now. I'm happy with TWRP. I do have a question for making a backup. By default in TWRP, the 1st 3 boxes are checked up for when attempting to make a backup. Do any of you guys ever check the other boxes (Recovery, cache, .android_secure) and if so, why? Also, when you attempt to wipe before restoring, which items do you guys wipe? Any other tips or suggestions about this recovery would appreciated too.
I backup everything except cache.
