How to flash radio without PC

Hi guys. I recently changed my desire for dhd and I would like to flash the latest radio. However I am away from home and don't have an access to PC. With my old desire I could flash the radio via clockwork. Is the same possible for dhd.

if you have the zip image flashable with clockwork mod u can... browse in the Desire hd radio thread...
but i do not recommend to you flash any radio from recovery... its not A safety mode....
use fastboot commander tool or flash it via adb of the sdk
take the radio thread link... and read the 2# post

TAKE THE FASTBOOT COMMANDER TOOL link... flash radios with CWM its not a good idea... it´s old method ;D

I'd recommend the method from this thread instead as it's for the DHD and not Inspire: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054304 You don't have to use command prompt (adb push blablabla...) to get it on your sdcard, just copy it to your sdcard anyway you like (or download it to your phone and move it to the root of your sdcard) but remember to check md5sum!

I think its not blablabla,
there are many opinions about how to flash... Ihere are 3 or ..4,methods ro flash radios... Now he can choose one of them.. THIS IS THE REALLY IMPORTANT

You must have misundestood me, the OP was asking for a method to flash radio without a computer and the thread marsdta suggested is from the Inspire 4G forum. I atleast want to be 100% sure that the method used to flash the radio works on the DHD, as flashing the radio is one of the few ways to brick your phone if it goes wrong.
The thread that I suggested uses adb to move the zip-file from the computer to the phone, which isn't necessary. You can just download it straight to your phone or drag and drop it from your computer and move it to the root of your sdcard. I wrote the "adb push blablabla" just to show what I'm talking about and because I thought it was unnecessary to copy the entire command lines, no depreciation was meant.

Maybe we are talking of different things... Sorry if i offensed you... when i arrive to my house I'm going to edit the post for not create confussion...

I posted the link for the inspire thread because I was in it prior to posting here. In the thread the links were to the dhd radios. I found it easier for a quick response to post it. So apologies if I added to the confusion. But flashing for the dhd and inspire are the same as they basically the same phone.

Your find that is an incorrect statement, DHD as a back Radio, in case something goes wrong with flashing a new Radio.

Yes I know some people have thought of the possibility, but I haven't seen anyone confirm it? Except the story where leith flashed the wrong radio, but if he had let it boot normally how knows what would've happened. You still can brick your device by flashing a corrupted radio or by pulling the usb-cable/battery out during the process or are you willing to try it and prove me wrong?

Alright, well in that case But I still would recommend people to be sure they do it right (the radio flashing guides also tell the same story) just in case and be aware that there is a small chance. Maybe some people have just been lucky.

[Q] how do i install the radio for a g2

i need help tp install the radio 2 my g2 any help?

I'm assuming you are rooted and S-OFF.
The easiest way to do it is with a PC10IMG.zip. you download the radio you want, place on the root of your SD card rename the file so it only say PC10IMG.zip and then reboot into bootloader.
All the radios and more info can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970809
Why do you need to change the radio? The general info is if it ain't broke don't try to fix it.

just make a goldcard, use downgrade, everything is being done by the tool while downgrading, after it root it, s-off, eng s-off additionally and install recovery. after that you should be able to flash a costumrom

I really couldn't understand what you really are facing and what help you want, however i can tell you the following:
-Make sure you have installed all HTC drivers as required
-Make sure you have installed latest HTC sync
-Make sure you have debugging mode enabled
-Read read read! Read another guide if you need to! Read comments because they have valuable info!
Good luck man!

There is no possible to put firmware prepared as a ZIPed ISO images (strictly for bootloader) to put from recovery.

from forum got some bug on it, and recovery dont recognize it correctly.
Just to be sure...
After putting 1.30 rom, I try to put 1.33 on update in recovery, and also, only BOOTLOADER and RADIOs got updated.
So, if you want to debrand, you need to use 1.30, then try to update your system over air (OTA) to newest version. I think that will be easier.

[Q] Help upadating radio on my HTC Desire/Bravo/G7

Hello to everyone,
First of all I really tried to find a dumb proof guide on how to update radio but... no success.
My Desire is rooted and S-Off and cm7r2 HBoot with 5.11.05.27 radio and running Runnymede AIO V6.0.4.3 S.E. from Sebastian15 and tried a couple of times to flash the 5.17.05.23 radio but I got both times errors.
Forgot to mention that I have 4Ext recovery and tried to flash it in recovery. I don't know if it was the wright way or if I should have done it another way.
If I offended anyone with my english please do concider that this ins't my native language. If there is a post out there on how to flash the latest radio with my HBoot please just point me to it.
I thank you all in advance.
Best regards.

Just one more thing
Forgot to say that even though some things, like this little one, are new to me I don't concider myself as being a noob. I admit that I am a constant reader of this vaste forum even though I haven't made myself noticed by posting, mostly due to my work, far too little free time on my hands.
Restpectfuly.

on cm7r2 hboot, your cache partition is now too small to flash radios, so now must be done through fastboot (safer anyway).
guide here
extract the radio.img from the zip, and always verify the md5 of the radio.img before flashing, can/will cause permanent brick if they don't match!

If I understud correctly I should extract radio.img file and move it to the root of the sd card and boot into recovery and flash it in fastboot.
Are there any other things I should know before proceding?
As always a nand backup.
After flashing the radio must I do anything else?
Thanks in advance.

don't think you can flash it from your sd card as far as i know.
you put the radio.img on your computer. put it somewhere easy to get to, like root of your c:\ drive.
then you can use the fastboot commands in the guide i linked you (skip the adb bit), or use the tools posted above.
remember to check md5 of the radio, search for it online and use a tool like md5check. a bad radio flash = brick!

Thx for the prompt reply. Will try tonight to flash using the utility.
Hope it will be flawless. :beer:

Finnaly got to flash the radio.img yesterday using abd shell. Don't know why but never got android flasher to work.
Updated .NET to 4.0, installed the android USB drivers but it just hanged after it got my Desire into fastboot.
Read the instructions like a million times to see if I missed something, but no success.
Anyway... just wanted to say thanks for the help.
