Yes and place it on the root of your SD card, reboot in hboot, give it a second to load and pretty soon it will ask if you want to update...Thats it.
Just be careful, as I'm sure you have read...flashing radios can bick your device pretty fast

No. In these particular downloads , the PD98IMG.zip file is contained within the .7z archive, so you'll need to simply extract PD98IMG.zip and copy it to the root of your SD card, then reboot into bootloader. If you simply rename the .7z file it won't work.

yeah i have flashed many radios before just wasnt sure cause i could only find the radio.img n not the whole PD98IMG zip so i was scared, and flashed the bare radio in bootloader not noticing lol... Luckily didnt brick so i came here.. I found it out right after i downloaded it but thanks alot..

New Froyo ROM is here

If I understand correctly, installing this ROM will prevent you from rooting your phone.

Yes that is correct. It will install a new HBOOT loader that had closed the previous root exploit that Unrevoked used. To date they have not been able to find a exploit that will give you permanent root or the ability to flash an alternate recovery.
The best bet is to wait for someone to download the RUU, extract the ROM.zip file and create a rooted, flashable ROM.zip that ClockworkMod can install.
ROM.ZIP file
I have the rom.zip file from the RUU but I can't seem to open it. I wanted to take a look and see what all was in the update. Are the zip files in the RUU in a proprietary zip format?
They're signed by HTC which puts the signature bytes at the head of the zip file. I think 7zip will handle it. I use the unzip util in linux. It complains about the firest 256 bytes, but will unzip it. If you don't have linux, you can probably use the unzip command line util in the android shell to unzip it to your sdcard.

I was able to open the ROM.zip with 7-Zip but now I can seem to open the individual img files using WinImage. I was able to do use this on the HTC Inspire ROM without any issue.
Does anyone know if this is 2.2, 2.2.1, or maybe 2.2.2?

That's what I want to determine, too. If it is only 2.2 then it probably isn't much different than Liberated FR008. If it is the 2.2.1 source base, then it may be worth looking at.

Yes - Do Not install this update to your Aria -
If you want this version, load Liberated FR008 - it's pretty slick and offers the same functionality as the AT&T version.
If you need to restore your factory settings, you will need to find the previous update (here's a link: http://www.mediafire.com/?r49zx44u3kq8z5c). That one is now replaced by the FroYo version on the HTC web site.

2.2.2 FRG83G; Wow that is awesome! That is the most recent 2.2 code base. It was released in Jan 2011 for the Nexus One. So perhaps we have something more recent than the Gratia/FR008 build here..

No, RUU are signed with a HTC key. There is no way to modify the ROM.zip without resigning it with the HTC key.

3. Using winzip or 7 zip place the bootsplash.img in the blank PD98IMG using normal compression. (DO NOT unpack/unzip the PD98IMG!)
4. Place the PD98IMG on the root of your sd card.
5. Boot into h-boot and press volume up to flash.
6. The phone will reboot with your new splash screen.
7. Delete the PD98IMG off the root of your sd card.

Thank you! Your more then welcome to! I thought about this a while ago when they were flashing radios.
Also I will add that there is virtually little risk of bricking using this method, I know because the first time I tried flashing a splash.img that was in the wrong bmp coding >_<.
I just cant seem to get this working on cm7.
I made a splash and saved it as a 24 bit bmp then I renamed it bootsplash.img. I open up two 7-zip windows and copied the splash into the zip file.
But when I try to flash through Hboot it says that the image failed.
Am I missing anything?

Hmmm I am not sure about cm7 if I remember correctly the actual rom doesn't do any thing to the boot partition mind posting the image and letting me give it a try ?
It must be named splash1.img the same as if you are doing it from ADB. I just did it and it worked. bootsplash.img will make it fail.

Hello. I have an HTC Inspire 4G and believe I am following the steps correctly. Does the phone have to be rooted in order to work or can I use a stock phone with S-On?

Splashscreen Trouble

I was able to change my splashscreen once, but changing it again doesn't seem to work. I place the PD98IMG.zip in the root of my SD card, overwriting the previous, and when I boot into bootloader I just see something come up like "parsing PD98IMG.zip" and it just finishes without giving me the option to volume up or down to actually change/load the new PD98IMG.zip file. Any ideas?
1.
I've tried deleting it completely/loading new file and I still have the same splashscreen.
Are you rooted? I've seen this behavior when S-ON is still active

When you put the file in the PD98IMG.zip, did you unzip and then re-zip? If so, you should just open the zip file with 7zip/winrar/whatever so you can see inside, and then just paste your .img file inside. Then close it.
Other than that, we need more details. What process exactly are you doing. Are you creating your own .img with nbimg, or using someone else's already made .img
I am using some one else's .img file (mainly from the splashscreen emporium post) and I just move the file from my download folder to the root of my sdcard and click OK to overwrite with root explorer. I havent tried zipping and unzipping yet on the computer, but ill let you know if it works.
what i meant was don't unzip/rezip. Just browse the zip file and drop your .img in it. But since you're going with someone else's zip, i have no idea where the problem could be.
if you really want the splash screen, have a look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1059520
it's more difficult than just grabbing someone else's, but it's honestly not too bad, especially since he gives step-by-step instructions

Flashing radio question

I've followed shadowfox's instruction on how to flash a radio and have been looking at the new inspire radio thread and I've followed the instructions (not well enough obviously) but when I boot into hboot it says that the image can't be found. I've downloaded the radio file and replaced it in the hack fit file and put it on my sdcard but doesn't seem to work. The name is correct. I'm not sure what place it on the root of the sdcard means so I got this feeling I'm not putting it on my sdcard correctly? thanks for the help. I know, newb question but I'm doing my best.
Root of the sd card is on the as card and in no folder whatsoever
Sent from my Inspire 4G using xda premium
So pretty much just putting it on the sd card then correct? beacause I've done that and it doesn't recognize that it's there. Here's what I did so if you see anything wrong then it might be easier for you to help me?
1. Download radio from thread (ex.using the radio from the cleardroid thread)
2. take the zip file and replaced it in the PD file from the hack kit
3. put the .zip file on the sd card.
as I was looking at the instructions, am I supposed to take the radio file I downloaded and actually name the radio.img file the pd98img.zip and compress it? I'm sorry if this is frustrating to work through.

Just like XAviierG said, make sure that it's not placed into any folders of any kind when you're putting it on your sd card. If you use Root Explorer (or a similar file browser), and you go into your /sd card directory, you should see the PD98IMG.zip file in that directory without having to open a folder to get to it. This is referred to as the "root" of your sd card. If your radio of choice is there, just boot into HBOOT per the Radio sticky's instructions and flash away. Just don't power-down or disturb the radio upgrade in any way once you press Volume-Up to accept the upgrade. As always, verify those MD5's while the files are on your sd card for both the radio and the matching RIL prior to flashing the radio zip, (you'll flash the RIL from Recovery after mouning /system if you need to flash it). You can use something like Android File Verifier or Astro File Manager to verify the MD5's if you don't have an MD5 verifier on your PC.
Still not working, I see it while I use the file explorer and for some reason when I boot into hboot it doesn't recognize its there...As per shadow's instructions am I supposed to rename the radio.img in the download radio file to pd98img and zip it and then place it on the sd card? or just move the downloaded zip file right to the sd card?
why doesnt anyone use the RADIOS/RILS thread any more? the instructions are great and the files are already in correct format

Do it the easy way. Just go to THIS THREAD and grab the radio that you need, (the newest radio for the Inspire is the 26.10.04.03_M radio and the matching RIL is the 0153 RIL), and put those 2 files on the root of your sd card. Keep in mind that ClearD will already have a RIL packed in with the ROM, but I've never ran ClearDroid, so I'm not sure which RIL it may be. The radio is around 10MB or so in size and the RIL is about 447KB or so. Flash the radio (PD98IMG.zip) through HBOOT and then reboot the phone when prompted. Once you're up and running, you should be in business. I wouldn't mess with the RIL just yet. Like I said before, ClearD will already have one packed in. I can see that ClearD is a great Dev, so enjoy that ROM!
EDIT: Keep in mind that if you've downloaded anything to your PC in PD98IMG.zip format, you'll want to delete that from your PC first before downloading another one. The reasoning behind this is so that your download manager doesn't rename the file to something like PD98IMG(1).zip, or anything like that. If that zip is not named EXACTLY PD98IMG (the .zip portion will show up on your phone's sd card, but perhaps not when on your PC) when you boot into HBOOT, it will not parse properly, and HBOOT will just look at you like you just farted in Church.

If you're still having trouble, I figured out what I was doing wrong and it may be the same thing for you...when i downloaded the radio file for cleardroid, I had to rename the file to "PD98img.zip". My computer already had it as a zipped file so when I added the .zip to the end of it, it was actually being called "PD98img.zip.zip" and therefore hboot wasn't finding the file. Rename it PD98img if your computer is recognizing the file as a zipped file already..the radios on the thread given a couple post up don't need to be named so I didn't run into the same problem with those. Hope this helps man! good luck!

What radio are you trying to flash? Some devs that come from the dhd section will post the radio without the needed text file inside inorder to flash via hboot. They still tend flash pushing it through adb. So for those files you simply can't rename to pd98img and flash

[Q] Can someone please offer me some advice. CWM isn't working

Hi all,
I know that there are a lot of guides on xda and I've been reading them, searching and googling like crazy to try to find the answer.
Yes I'm a noob and I'm still trying to Root my phone.
I have managed to S-OFF with revolutionary.
I want to flash ARHD 4.1.13 (android 2.3.5 & htc sense3.5) onto my HTC Sensation Z710e.
I've been reading this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
And I'm at the stage where I'm trying to install recovery v5.0.0.8 CWM onto my phone for recovery.
I have downloaded recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-pyramid.img from the threads here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1277975
I've heard that the file should be named 'PG58IMG.zip'
I've named the file recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-pyramid.img as 'PG58IMG.zip', then I've started up HBOOT but I keep getting messages stating cannot find PG58IMG. Then I just get the standard HBOOT screen of Fastboot, Reboot, Recovery etc... No messages about 'Updating' etc which you'd expect from CWM.
How can I move forward from here?
Thank you,
T-L-H
That's where you're going wrong. If you've got the recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-pyramid.img you flash it as it is using the fastboot flash command
fastboot flash bootloader recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-pyramid.img

Sounds like you dl it,but it needs to be on the root of your sdcard. Move it to the root,then check md5sum,load up and it should recognize it.

You can't just rename the recovery file PG58IMG.zip - it doesn't work like that
If you have the *.img file you have to flash it via fastboot. That or find someone that's packaged the recovery into a PG58IMG.zip file
I've managed to flash the ROM onto my phone ^^
I've used ARHD 4.1.13 (android 2.3.5 & htc sense3.5)
Just to double check, that doesn't have Beats (thats fine I don't have any Beats headphones anyway).
Will it change the CPU to 1.5Ghz? In hardware settings for the phone it still shows 1.2Ghz.
Think that one doesn't but not sure...why not go for HD 6.x?

It was my first time Rooting and flashing ROMs onto phones, the whole firmware thing confused me until I'd thought about it...
I know that what I've got on now is stable.
I'll fiddle with it in a week or so.
you should rename it to "recovery.img", and put it into the old PG58IMG.zip (cwm 5.0.0.8) and overwrite the old recovery.img.
then put the new PG58IMG.zip in your sdcard root folder and get into hboot then update it.

Yeah, I'm downloading the Download free 4EXT Recovery Updater from here: http://www.4ext.net/
It's an APK file so how do I run it in the phone as I'm guessing it's an App.

just copy the apk file to your sdcard, and then open file explorer,e.g. es file explorer. then install the apk file, and then open the "4ext recovery" in your app drawer, and choose "online install|upgrade", then choose "touch", then choose the latest version, now it is 1.0.0.3 RC3.

I've put the apk file on root of my SD card, I opened ES File Explorer, installed the App, I ran it, updated it online to RC3.
Shut down the phone, HBOOTED it and then chose recovery and then back up in EXT4. It's doing it's thing now, I take it that this is correct?

That's where you're going wrong. If you've got the recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-pyramid.img you flash it as it is using the fastboot flash command
fastboot flash bootloader recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-pyramid.img

That won't work, it should be:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-pyramid.img
