You shouldn't take OTA updates aka the HTC Software update which is more or less a stock ROM and will mess with your root. You should only update PRL, and PRI, and radios and kernels.

thanks
So in my settings menu..i can only update the prl and the profile? leave the firmware and htc software parts alone...?

[Q] latest stock info

Can anybody tell me what the latest software version is? I had to unroot , because of speaker problems. Anyway, I have 2.2, baseband 2.15.00.0728, 2.6.32.15 htc kernel, build 3.26.651.6. I'm asking because of all the 3.28 ota stuff in the development section. Oh pri 1.40 and 60670 prl.
Edit- using system updates on phone says I am up to date...
You are up to date.
The 3.28.... builds are based on a yet to be released update.

[Q] Does anyone know any ROM with the latest PRL/ Baseband version?

Im looking for a Rom with the latest PRL/Baseband vesion, if anyone has an idea, it will help a lot. Thanks
First off, are you rooted?
yeah,u have any idea of one?
Neither the PRL or the radio (baseband is the radio) are included in any rom. You can get the latest radio to flash in the radio thread in the development section and you update the PRL in settings/system updates/update prl in any Sense rom.
You can find the latest PRI and Radio files here.

cm10

Hello,
I am currently running CM10 on my e4gt and i was trying to update the prl and profile but wen i go to system updates it places a phone call to sprint to update the profile...I was wondering if there was another way to update the prl and profile? Also I wanted to use some dialer codes but none of them work, do I have to enable something in development or something?
thanks

You have to revert back to a ics or GB rom to update prl /profile

[Q] Sprint Signal is Horrible - What do I need to upgrade?

Hi everyone,
I noticed that in the last few weeks everytime I make a call the link is noisey. My friend said Sprint recently started adding LTE and the area and I needed to upgrade.
Question now is what is it I need to update? The baseband or the radio? I already did a PRL and PRI update.
I am running SOS+ Rom android version 2.3.5 baseband 2.15.00.09.01 PRI 1.77 PRL 60797.
Any advice would be appeciated

Baseband & radio are the same thing. If it's not up to date I would update it. You'll need to be S-off to update your firmware (radio).

Thanks Finz28, its been so long that I had forgotten. I should be S-OFF since I have a custom rom.
Looks like this is the latest Radio: 2.15.00.01.15

thanks!
That's the latest radio, yes.
As far as being S-off, you need to check. You don't have to be S-off to install a custom ROM, only rooted. Contrary to popular belief, root & S-off aren't the same.
