Signal Problem - Radio upgrade and/or downgrade

I'm having a signal problem, where my signal levels goes up and down the entire day, sometimes it could say No Signal....
Any idea???
I was thinking maybe upgrading or downgrading my Radio Version, please help... right now I'm on 3.42.30, is that the latest? Which other radio version u guys recommend....
Thanks
Are you on a road trip?
Do you have Verizon?
I notice the thing happening in places where I use to have full signal before changing my old Motorola w385.
I was asking about Verizon because they have done 2 roaming updates in the last 2 months.
What carrier?
Try to re-flash the radio to 3.42.30 again....I have radio 3.42.50 on my old Vogue
I'm on MetroPCS I have just re-flashed the phone with original Sprint ROM and problem persists....
How can I upgrade to 3.42.50???? My phone is Sprint, can I load Bell ROM to get that radio version???
I was able to upgrade my radio version to 3.42.50, thanks to ski21.... however my problem persists. I read that could be something with the wrong Checksum....
Someone has an idea on how can I verify the checksum?
PD. I have the radio versions, 3.42.30, 3.42.40 and 3.42.50... if someone need one of them PM.

[Q] Stuck in 2G

Hello,
I own a rooted Evo with CM7. For some time now I've noticed that my device only connects to 2G/1xRTT and not EVDO. I have tried many apps to force it into 3G but it doesn't even try to connect or anything. 4G and WIFI work just fine. I would like to be able to use 3G cause there's not 4G signal everywhere I go, especially here in San Francisco.
I tried the following:
* Installed a Sense Rom and updated profile, PRL, etc.
* Calling Sprint (Had a bad representative who said it's probably connected and didn't believe me)
I have the latest PRL and I'm pretty sure I have the latest radio. Here is the version number:
Baseband Version: 2.15.00.11.19
PRL: 60681
I thought maybe updating the radio or PRL to a lower version would fix it but I've read the risks of messing with the radio and bricking your phone, so if I do it, I would like to clearly understand what is it that can brick the phone.
Any thoughts?
Thanks again.
UPDATE: I actually did not have the latest radio. Now I have version 2.15.00.0808

normally you won't see a radio info tag in the baseband due to it not being the one built for that device. Normally it will only show if you are using the one specific to your device (i.e. UVLE1 for ics t989)
Now the question is, when you flash uvle1 to your phone, does it show up in the baseband?
