Astro file mgr & locating my radio - HTC Inspire 4G

Okay, will somebody give me some feedback..I just changed radio's and I wanted to check the MD5 checksum and I cannot for the life in me find the radio image in astro. I'm going crazy...I've done it before but is it possible that when I flashed the radio (using adb) that it put it somewhere else? my phone is working, making calls....no probs...just cannot locate the damn file to check it....
okay...in case anybody wanted to know ..I couldn't find the radio.img file...so I went the way of the Inspire radio thread as opposed to using this method (which worked before) :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=896597: ....anyhow...after all of that....there it was on the root of my phone the pd98img and RIL...checksum's check out and all is great......I'm still curious as to where the radio img was the first go around???? maybe somebody could tell me...

nuePower/nueBattery

ok im kind of a newb still when it comes to HTC/wm and i've search around and cant find the answer.... anyways i've been tryin to find out how to install these for my HTC TD2
the link to it is - http://www.nuerom.com/BlogEngine/page/nuePowernueBattery.aspx
any help would be appreciated tyvm XD
It seems to me that file inside archive should be renamed to battdrvr.dll and placed into Windows folder replacing original one. But I don’t want to experiment with my device.
that cant be the only thing i have to do right?
It’s pretty weird to make something then have no installation instructions because I have no idea how to install it correctly >.<
It says on the site that there are 2 one for CDMA and one for GSM phones so I downloaded the GSM one since my provider is rogers = GSM/3G which came with a dll but is that all I need for the 1% increment and the FastCharge mode? Do I need to install the nuePowerCPL? And I tried installing the cab but nothing appeared so I downloaded the OEM package and dragged it into program files but that didn’t do anything either so I’m very confused.
anyone?
You have to put .dll in windows directory (and to be sure in app's directory) and install CPL (cab version, OEM is for ROM cooks).
theres also a batt dll in that folder i forgot the name but its not the same as the nuebattery one do i replace that one with the nuebattery dll or just copy it in?

(Q) how to update RIL and Radio

Hey guys, if someone could put together a unified guide on updating to the latest ATT RIL and Radio I would really appreciate it. I've seen different information scattered throughout the dev/rom section but was hoping someone could make a post in general. (Instead of a bunch of people cluttering up rom sections.
Thanks in advance!

For the RIL, open up your ROM Manager, go to download roms, gtg465x, and select the RIL option.
For the radio, put the PDIMG (or whatever its named; don't want to look it up) on your root directory of the SDCard and bot into recovery (volume up + power button) and it should automatically start flashing it.
Note, just because its the latest version doesn't necessarily mean its good. Also try to use the corresponding RIL with its radio version.

I wouldn't recommend the above method. The RILs have to correspond to the radio. Check the RCMix 6.1 thread and look for the sig file for Cocchiarraro. You'll find he has a link to matched sets of radio/ril archives. I'd also recommend you give the RCM rom a shot. It's awesome, and also available through ROM manager - look for TeamRC.

What part of the above method do you recommend against?
The RIL part of the post refers to an RIL flasher that gtgx65x made for his Rom that will also work with other roms. It just lets you choose your installed radio from a list, and then flashes the correct matching RIL for you.
The rest of that post does leave a few questions in my mind though.

Heh, I was being way too general... all you need is to download the correct P98IMG.zip file, replace the radio.img with what you want in there, and just put it on the root directory of the SDCard.
That's how I've been doing it, and it's always been successful...
Here are some links to the latest radios ( in the form of PD98IMG.zip) and RILs.

Does anyone have the 26.09.04.1 radio is ruu format?

I want to use Ace's Hack Kit to flash my first rom and radio on this brand new device. The recommended radio for coredroid is 26.09.04.1. I can only find it in an img file. I was hoping someone had converted it to RUU, so I can follow the steps in the "effen manual" in the hack kit.
Try this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1106324
I could be wrong but they don't come in ruu, do they? Isn't that a Windows Mobile phone thing? Radios for Android are zip format and installed with the bootloader.

I'm assuming he meant PD98IMG.ZIP format, but I might be wrong. Guess I should have clarified.

Here's what you can do. In the ace-hack-kit.zip, you'll find a folder called Tools. Open it and then open the folder called Radio. Here you will find a PD98IMG.zip file, and inside this .zip you will find a radio.img file. You can replace this radio.img file with the radio.img of your choosing, then put your newly created PD98IMG.zip back in tools\radio. Make sure you're not changing the compression of anything and when you perform the hack kit, it will flash the radio you want
Thanks.

I installed the radio. Success. Now all I have to do is wait for coredroid 6.8 to be debuted tonight and install it from recovery mode, and I think I'm good to go. You don't have to install the rom BEFORE the recommended radio do you? I didn't think it mattered.
No your good to go. Coredroid should have the proper ril for the radio. Just flash coredroid using clockwork and have fun. Coredroid has got to be one of the best looking tons out, good luck

Trouble with Hack Kit.

I have downloaded the radio I want from the radio thread. I am putting the zip in the romzip folder and renaming it rom.zip. What am I doing wrong?
What error are you receiving? Make sure USB debugging is on.
An alternative is to name it PD98IMG.zip and flash the radio through hboot.
Make sure to verify the md5sum before flashing

So you're saying you dispossessed one of the radios from the inspire radio thread in the dev section, correct?
If so, it sounds like you are going through some unnecessary steps.
Once you download one of the radios from the above-mentioned thread, you put that file, which is already named correctly, PD98IMG.zip, into the root of your SD card.
Verify the MD5 of that PD98IMG.zip file, checking it against that posted for the radio.
If it is identical, proceed...
I have fastboot unchecked, reboot the phone and get into hboot.
Select bootloader (I think. I don't do it THAT often. )
After a second or two, it should look for the file, and scan it.
Push the corresponding volume button to confirm applying the update, let it do its thing.
Reboot.
Confirm baseband reflects the newly flashed radio.
Flash appropriate RIL for the radio, if necessary, via cwr.
WHAT'S MD5? Is it important for us? Im just flashing many radios to test which one works best for me.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
MD5 checksum is a way to verify if the file has been corrupted in either download or transfer and yes it is important, especially with the radio if you flash a radio; at the least you will not be able to flash the radio, at worst with a bad file you have the opportunity to Brick you phone! When loading roms patches ect. using md5 ensures a proper file for install. If your in the us I would suggest sticking with the latest stock AT&T radio until you settle on a rom and then only change if you don't have the performance you think you should have.

I look for PG88IMG

Hello look for a link works for PG88IMG_based_on_RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1.zi p
Anyone can help me.
i find this but link not work
loveboatcaptain said:
and here it is...
based on the RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_20.28b.30.080 5U_38.03.02.11_M_release
downloadlink: PG88IMG_based_on_RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1.zip
just rename it to "RG88IMG.zip" and put it on the root of your sd card.
then reboot into fastboot mode (bootloader) and the rest will be done automaticly.
you can extract that zip file to modify the system image to get root e.g.
search the forums to get it out how.
kind regards

Just scroll down a bit
Edit: forget to mention, maybe your zip-file already contains the pg88.. Thing you need

Thanks for the reply but that's only radio and I need ROM a full install from sdcard And also does not need to do s-off
OP says you need pg88img.
That's not a ROM
Which ROM do you need? didn't searching the forum solve you're problem?
You have to state clearly what you want or need
Edit: Maybe that's what you need

Whatever may be the reason that you need this (?) here is how to get it yourself:
Download RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_20.28b.30.080 5U_38.03.02.11_M_release from the sticky Stock ROMs thread.
Run the RUU on your PC.
On the first screen (do not press anything when it starts) open your Windows Explorer, browse to the C: drive and in the search field type rom.zip.
Wait for the search to complete and copy the rom.zip file to another loacation.
Close the RUU setup.
Rename the rom.zip (this is exactly what are you looking for) to PG88IMG.zip and copy to SDCard.
Yeah you are thinking about the rom.zip of the RUU which is renamed to that. So follow what amidabuddha said!
Thank you very much this is exactly what i look for.
thanks for all
