Will this mess with my rooting or put back the ssa app which is for activating?
If your on CDMA don't flash it, I heard cdma has an ota that blocks the boot.IMG flashing option. If GSM just use ota rootkeeper and you'll be fine.

You're right about the CDMA ota. It's a known issue reported by many Virgin Mobile users.
Thought So but didn't wanna say for sure since im on GSM so never read the cdma threads, just thought i'd leave that part to the cdma guys they know more, maybe they even know a update number or something so that the OP knows that if the ota is lower than that he can still safely flash it (assuming he is cdma)

Which also updates the radio. I had to reinstall it back to stock with the RUU nonsense to get back to the old radio in order to flash anything that would work for more than a minute without rebooting.

I have a Bell Desire Z unlocked that I use on AT&T. I am running CM7. I notice data drops. I will have full bars on 3G, then will drop down to EDGE for a few minutes, then back to 3G.
Any help?
This is pretty typical... a good number of users, me included had this issue and some still do! It reminds me of the Nexus one issue with data.. nothing you can do but try flashing a different radio =\... notice how the Desire z/G2 looks like a nexus but with a kb? also one thing you could do is force the device to use 3G network only.
take a look at this thread i answered earlier on forcing edge/3G.

When I had my G2 I used this Radio "Vision_RADIO_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17" do you have S-OFF and SIM UNLOCKED? by gfree? if so.. use this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970809
btw you can also try the latest leaked radio which is "Vision_RADIO_12.50.60.24_26.08.04.16"
I am rooted/s-off etc. If I were to flash the new leaked radio, would I be able to go back down? And it works with CM7? Sorry for the noob questions

yeah you sure would be able to go back down to a different radio since you have s-off, etc! go ahead and try it and hopefully it all works good for you
Flashed the leak. So far so good. No drops, staying steady at 4 bars.

I haven't seen anything to suggest otherwise, but is there any reason that I maybe haven't received the 4.0.4 update yet is because I have an app that is not compatible with API 15 (4.0.3+)? Does anybody know if the updates take anything like that into consideration? I have a feeling it's not, but I'm not 100% sure.
Thanks.

That will have no impact on whether you receive the update. The only think that will influence it is your IMEI and your build fingerprint.

All the OTA cares about is that the IMEI is on their list and you have the proper radio, ROM, recovery, and everything.

What krohnjw said is correct. Just to add some additional detail:
All that matters for receiving the notification of an OTA update is your IMEI and your fingerprint (found in your build.prop in the line starting with ro.build.fingerprint).
For having the update install, it depends on what each individual update verifies. For example, the IMM76D from ICL53F update verifies a whole slew of items, including files found in /system, as well as the radio. The IMM48 update for yakjuux doesn't verify anything (aside from the device being maguro). No update to date has verified the recovery partition.
For having the update install automatically, it needs the stock recovery.
That's the actual IMEI of my device found under settings and not the fake Atrix one I gave AT&T so I could access the faster data speeds?

I REALLY NEED HELP PLSSSSS :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
There are too many factors to tell you what radio will work best for you, depending on your location, who you use your phone, what ROM/modifications you use
having said this many find the latest T-Mobile radio the best (.19) of course I promise you nothing but for me it gives great battery life and reception.
There is a thread in the developers section with links to every radio for the vision, try a few out for a few days at a time and see what works best for you. There will also be a link and explanations of the benefits to matching some libs. Edkeys also has a thread on this as well, I suggest reading up a bit and running a few tests by yourself

changing radios in itself or having a different radio won't damage the phone, it is possible to brick your phone anytime you tamper with firmware, but unlikely so long as you read up and know what you are doing.
not by a computer so I won't send links but the search function works well, just search the dev section

well that's not always the case, sometimes gps will lock immediately still. its a good idea to wipe efs though, if you read through that thread and the other threads linked from it there will be all the explanations you need. but again flashing any one radio will not guarantee better reception, gps lock, or battery life, just most people find the .19 radio does

yeeeessss just flashed it every thing isss feelingggg kinda slow but the gps works great pin point me good but am still worried if i have to wipe
cos its slow now i have the wipe file ready which will wipe only the said partition shud i do it cos i hate "slow"
changing radios shouldn't slow down a rom, wipping efs won't speed up a rom

A good friend of mine picked up an HTC Thunderbolt and had a million issues getting it flashed over to page plus wireless. He was able to trade it for a near brand new Incredible 2.
I am a CDMA noob. I have been using GSM phones for my entire Android tinkering life. Will doing the downgrade, S-OFF, etc break this CDMA 'flash'? I don't even know where the changed took place... It seems like wiping data, system, and cache shouldn't touch this... but I could be very wrong.
Thanks all!

not sure of your exact question, but if its if rooting will stop you from being able to flash this phone to a new carrier, the answer is no...

You are close. Will rooting, s-off, or ROM and radio flashing mess up a changed CDMA carrier? Where exactly does a CDMA flash take place in the system?

i am not so sure on all that as ive never done it, you may have to re set it up after you change roms and stuff, but im not sure. i would get everything the way you want it, then flash over to new carrier

is it possible by any means to successfully flash Android Revolution HD 53 on a Verizon HTC One Device without any issues
I wouldn't unless it specifically says compatible with Verizon version of the one.
Sent from my HTC6500LVW using xda app-developers app
If I'm not mistaken, you were asking for help on fixing your softbricked One after you flashed ARHD to it. You also asked a few weeks back about changing your CID to let you flash stuff not intended for the Verizon model.
Please, stop. You clearly don't know what you're doing. Take a break from flashing ROMs and browse the forums for info on the HTC flashing process and how the Verizon One differs from the international model. It would be a waste if you bricked a perfectly good phone that you had to import from the US.

i know its a perfect device but comes with many Verizon apps that i don't want and don't use at all. also the battery life that i am getting is quiet not good that is why i thought to put a diff. custom Rom that promises for better battery life and performance but since now i know that its incompatible with my device i would like to use stock version for now. i like ARHD because it gives a stock like experience. i just love the HTC's userinterface and OS that is why i won't be flashing any other Rom like ViperOne or CM which is even compatible with it.
my device is now currently fixed and i won't be tinkering it for while now
Viper is based on stock so it can be as custom or stock looking as you want.

Santod040's debloated, rooted, deodexed/odexed stock ROM seems to me to be exactly what you're describing. I've been using his versions after the OTA updates, and they've been perfect.
(I'm often messing with settings or playing games on my phone, fiddling with Tasker etc., and I get good battery life. Usually 60% plus left going from 6:30AM to 9:00PM. Anecdotal, I know, but still.)
