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.

Ok so I'm seeing all of thesse posts about modems, I come from a samsung moment so I have literally no idea what anybody is talking about. So will somebody please explain?

Its what gives the phone its signal..depending on the modem it determines if you have great signal or poor signal, and usually updates to towers.
In essence its the radio version and usually the newest the better but varies between location.

Ok, so if I never changed it and all I've done since stock unrooted was root it and go between clean gb, and marcusant, and am currently now on cm9, would it have changed from ei22 to el30? I'm very confused, I'm a n00b and I have no knowledge about modems. Please explain. Thank you
Sent from my SPH-D700 with some ice cream on it
Nope flashing a rom doesn't change the modem you'll need to flash the modem via odin or a delta depending on what modem your on.

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

Meh, it's was your avatar that I remembered.
Thank you for chiming in. I remembered seeing the posts but couldn't find them for a reference. This worked out though.:good:
Had my E4GT for a while now, came with FF18 2.3.6, then did the OTA 4.0.4 FL27, then went through FL24. Then I got sick of waiting for JB, so I threw GA10 4.1.2.
I messed up, because I Rooted, installed AGAT, then flashed the ROM on the phone. However, when I flashed either the ROOT or Recovery, the modem or something got messed up.
The phone will freeze, and reset if 4G or 3G radio is on. So my question is, what did I do wrong? And how can I fix it.

Absolutely. Just when it starts up, it works fine for about 10-15 seconds then freezes. GA10 didn't do this. This freezing only happened when I had the root and AGAt on it (I messed up one of these, and I assume it's modem issues?)
IF so, if I flash the EL29 package with the modem, it should fix my problem?
Also, it doesn't really matter...but will it make the yellow triangle and ODIN flash count go away?

Then I tried AOSP 4.1.1 Alpha 6 (Fantastic, but horrid battery life)
GA10 (Best I've tried, but horrid battery life)
2.3.6 OTA is my favorite so far.
