What is Radio.img; why downgrades fail.

[fogozito]

can someone tell me how to extract that nand segment?

Well we tried to use this module to map the missing parititons (right now merged to one (h_unknown)). The module is in the attachment.

dumping the other partitions resulted just FF file from A -> Z.

I try to follow this steps and no luck, the DEXT is bricked, unbrick with the 1.3.18 ROM (update_BL_0x517_tmo-morrison-viper-1.3.18-P3-supermonster-customer.zip) and downgrade the radio from 5030 to 5025 but the DEXT(Telcel-MX) still without 3G.

have you backup the Telcel ROM? because I tried to recover the original baseband and only had a bricked MB200, how did you do this?

Hi edealbag, not I try to follow this steps:

Hi.

Im from mexico and was experiencing connectivity problems on my DEXT from TELCEL with the radio upgrade when i installed E2C.

After a lot of research i succesfully downgraded the radio.

Using RSD Lite i RE-FLASHED my DEXT with RAsRecovery.shx

Then reinstalled my original ROM (TELCEL that is) and VOILA!!!

Everything back to normal, everything worked fine for me, i cant guarantee it'll work for you.

But still let me know if i can help.

Cheers everybody.

the telcel ROM used by me, to try this, is listed in the "CLIQ AND DEXT firmwares superthread", follow the instructions with the ROM mentionated the result is my DEXT is bricked.

I recover with the ROM mentioned in my previous post and actually work with Eclar2Cliq but without 3G.

that's because Amon RA's recovery is unrelated to radio downgrading. If you have upgraded from baseband 5012 then you are out of luck for the time being.

hopefully someone will find a way soon. I am out of luck with a mexico dext for now... only edge, no 3g. And certainly will take ages for americamovil to release 3g 2100 in mexico, so we are stuck with 3g 850...(they are as slow, or maybe slower than motorola in terms of updating anything...)

I've been told you Mexican guys can return your phone to your operator and they will give you a new one, with original radio.

Actually you might be able to flash the cefs.mbn from the Telcel firmware and see if it helps.

Three questions:
How extract files from the SHX file?
The file mentioned, where is the location in the ROM?
How put the file in my actual ROM?

I can test in my DEXT and check if it helps.

Thanks.

SHX files are extracted via SBF Recalc, and then the CG2.smg can be parsed with SBF Depacker.

This would be of interest to me as well.

Hi! i'm from argentina and my new dext have *5025* radio, blur version 0.14.401 and rsdlite bootloader 1440, if it's posible i can take out the radio of my phone and we can try to build a new rom with de same radio 5025 latam version with the base band working!! Sorry for my english!

EDIT: my bootloader version is v05.15

that's what i have in my mind, from 2 weeks ago, i want to know if there is a radioimage from argentina or any other country compatible to try... (i'm from argentina too) i tried with a radioimage from italy and got nothing. i have the *5025* too

[elyiyo]

im from argentina too... i dont even know the specifications of the baseband radio needed for the carrier... i have Claro (when i firts called saying i didnt have 3g they told me that the net was not working OK... preety convinient to them... but i supose my phone is the non working thing...)
i upgraded to adlxmod 2.1.5-2 (that says that doesnt need radio update) but i previously used the 2.1.5... so i think thats when i lost 3g...
any news with this?
