Download the zip, backup your current rom in recovery. Then wipe cache and dalvik cache, flash the zip file.

I did it all with no problem just don't flash the kernel

Can these be flashed with Recovery 3.0 or should we downgrade to 2.5?

Flashed on CM7 N87 and all is good!

Updated Kernel

Tiamat 4.0.4, CM7 nightly, RA 2.3
Confirmed all is working after flashing the radio update. Though still 1x in my office building due to interference from the verizon/att tower in the back if the property. Sprint refuses to attach to it, lol

I may stand corrected here, but in order to get the full benefit of the new radios you should update your profile and prl. Yeah, it probably isn't needed necessarily considering the pain if your on an AOSP rom, but a good idea because with the profile update it helps the network recognize that you have the update.

I'm getting a major boost in data connectivity after the radio update. Spots where I'd get no WIMAX before I'm getting decent service.

[Q] flashing cyn mod 7 with new radio

Holla back and letme know...
also where can i find the latest radio zip.

Yes, of course you should update your radio. Especially because it can help with speed issues. Update with the zips on this thread
You flash any of them through your recovery, but I wouldn't update your HBoot which is why it's not in the combo.
It wont let me download radio 215. Why is that. From Cal's site

Sent to XDA by the mind of an EvoKing. LoL
I have had no problems with the 2.15 radio.
Now signal bars drop down to all white. More drop calls as well. Should I have just dl the whole string update?

[Q] Signal Issues

Hey, i'm using Warm-Z Nightly 4-13, on radio 11.19.
I see my signal tend to disappear then reappear every so often. During that time, i'm not able to do anything that involves the radio like data or sms or phone calls.
Is it because of the actual radio? Should I downgrade to 07.28 again?
That Sounds to me as if its radio related. Did you flash the radio when you put on the new nightly? Or have you been using that radio for a while?

I've been using this radio for about a month or two now.
Damn auto correct......Hmmm.....well in that case this is kind of odd. Maybe the 4/13 nightly build had a glitch with that radio. I'd try either restoring your old nightly or just flashing a different nightly. If you still seem to have problems then I would try a new radio. But if this radio just recently started glitching with your new nightly I would definitely say just change to a different nightly and see if it helps

It's been with all my ROMs lol. I just happened to be using Warm-Z right now. I'm on 4-14 right now and it's still doing it. I'm about to flash back to 07.28.. i just don't know if that's safe.
I'm actually on 07.28. As well as warm z twopointtwo 4/7 nightly with the same kernel. You'll be fine.....flash the new radio just make sure you know what you're doing before you start

It's a different version of it. The current one that's in the nightly is a beta and well Ziggy took off all links if the kernel so incubus was lucky to have it before it got deleted. Upgrade to 4-14 its really fast.

Nope. I don't pay attention to that stuff. I usually try to stay away from too many kernel mods.
But the new kernel its running doesn't bump charge at all, so you should like it.

Sorry for the late reply, I have school and work.
But yeah, I updated to the leaked EVO 04.08 and the signal increased by -5 and i don't see the random disappearing anymore. When you flash the nightly, only wipe CACHE and DALVIK-CACHE. Do NOT wipe DATA unless you plan to start over.
Cool lemme know if you got more probs and ill do the same!

[Q] One week deep. LOS/Sleepy Radio software or radio based?

I like the hardware but this loss of service thing is annoying.
Has anyone determined if this is a software issue? Sprints network isnt great but my evo 3d fares much better.
Ive read around on the internet and I THOUGHT I read a post that mentioned a user reverting to EG30 which solved his/her problem. Only thing that isnt positive is whether the user reverted to software EG30 or baseband EG30.
Any insight into this issue, how to revert to an earlier software version? Ive tried various radios but not software. I appreciate your time.
I'm having same problem....my evo 3d had no problem with Los but my e4gt is terrible where I live.....I was told to try different modems but I tried FCO7 AND FC14 still the same.

Ok, maybe that is incorrect.
Just using it, for example sending a tweet or an email, one may send immediately. Then if I choose to refresh or send a second tweet/email right after, the transmission arrows dont light up for a while. Its like the radio is going to sleep way too fast and it takes even longer to wake up and complete the transaction. Enabling/disabling fast dormancy doesnt seem to make a difference.
Edit: under these conditions, I never get the "no signal" icon. Just seems the radio is sleepy
Well I asked around because my signal sucks but I called sprint and they said my area has really good service.....but people told me to try FCO4 and FC14 and FCO7 that might help so I did......nothing helped.
I just looked it says I'm using el29 on my kernal and FCO7 under baseband.......not sure if that helps,ill try to find out more and if it helps ill let you know

If not then manually install a different PRL, so you can connect to closer towers in your area, and don't forget to update profile and prl in settings>about phone> system updates

Thanks for the reply Custodian, I did wipe the phone fully, I was however using the ultimate iPhone theme. I just have not found anyone on xda that is having this issue. Could it be the theme? I am just reluctant to flash this again, but I really like the Miui set up. Do you think I should try an older version? Thanks again.

same here.. i flashed calks format all in el26cwm, miui 7/13 and chris41g cwm5 safe aosp kernel, and couldnt get past lockscreen due to phone fc.. tried going back into recovery and flashed format all again (worked a charm thanks to chris41g!) flashed miui again this time not kernel and same exact thing except this time no cwm so had to pc odin a oc to get phone back.. i thought it was just me.. only thing i could think of was i dled it on my phone while roaming and it took a while.. maybe a bad download?

There is a solution in the rom's thread in development. It worked for me. I'd give you the steps but i can't remember exactly, but it involves flashing el26.cwm, miui 2.6.8, el29.cwm direct boot, then 2.7.13 with wipes in between. It should be on the second page.

Unless you flash something else I don't know what to tell you. Make sure you're on the FH05 radio. My problem persists through RTN resets and Odins so it's definitely hardware. Maybe you can try this because you might be having the same problem as me. My speeds are hovering from 30-100Kbps. If you're having 1x speeds over 3G, take it to a store and let them deal with it.
