First, this post isn't for most people. If you want to flash your radio via recovery, see HERE. This way is easier in most cases. Otherwise, continue with this post.
Note: Flashing a radio by any method can brick your phone if something goes wrong... which it shouldn't. Flash at your own risk. It worked for me, for what that is worth.
HBOOT Flashable Radio Download.
Download the file, rename it to HERCIMG.zip.
Place HERCIMG.zip on the root (top level) of your SDcard.
Reboot into bootloader, or hold VOLUME DOWN + POWER from power off.
Make sure you are in HBOOT mode, if not read the screen on how to get there.
Once HBOOT is up, it will automatically find HERCIMG.zip and scan it.
You will see it found a radio and wants you to press "ACTION" to continue.
Press the trackball once, then wait. Once it's finished you can reboot.
You are done.
Thanks to Nfinitefx45 for posting the radio in his ROM thread, post #2.
S-OFF Method I used can be found here.
Thanks for this. My university blocks 4shared (along with Megaupload and Rapidshare ). It's sometimes a pain to get the file I need. Thankfully I had s-off.

No problem. By the way, if you need a dropbox link you should just ask... plenty of people here use it, or so it seems.
I can mirror the other radio zip if you want it.
thanks for the heads up, flashed this earlier today and now I get much better reception, so far anyway

Oh, if it wasn't for this thread, I wouldn't have even known the radio was already extracted
I was going to wait for HTC to post the RUU on their website and extract it on my own. But thanks to you, I'm now up to date and getting slightly better reception.

I have been checking Rom Manager for an Evo Shift ClockworkMod recovery from time to time and this morning it was there. Seems to work well, it handles backup restores a lot better.
Sorry if this is old news. I didn't see it before.
The install is through the official Rom Manager application which is in the Android Market.

Haha, man it flies stock.. They're getting close on the bootloader issue, good things come with time I guess. Got the HTC Inspire $99 when I switched, then sold the Showcase for $275 + CS Blackberry Curve 2. Sold Curve the next Day for $125. So made a Total of $400 off of the Showcase deal. Found this Atrix used for 3 days with an Otterbox Defender Case for $400. Saw his AT&T receipt for it. He didnt like it, and wanted to go back to an Iphone... Even though I jumped ship I still appreciate your, and all other Devs work.

Yea, if you updated your CWM via rom manager then you'll need to go flash our custom CWM 2.5.x (see phidelt's kernel/recovery post (stickied in this forum) which links to a list in the fascinate forum that has the file you need.)
Rom manager was only used to update our CWM in 2.1, post 2.1 it's not supported so you might as well save yourself some trouble and uninstall it .

Don't **** with the radio. None of those radios are for the Showcase
Guess it doesn't really matter now anyways. Clicked the wrong button when I was using Odin to load the CWM and put my phone into a boot loop. Now to get a stock CS ROM to reload my phone.
Actually, at this point I don't care if it's stock or not, just as long as I can get something loaded back on my Showcase and get it active with CS.

Q: can I flash it after rom and kernal or it has to be flashed before?
A: It don't matter what order you flash these in. Radios and kernels are two different things.
Q: Do i need to flash the kernel and radios?
A: No, this is totally optional. You can flash one or the other.
