I received it running an old version of Infused, if I flash back to stock, will the HDMI out work again?

As long as you are on a froyo rom the HDMI will work, the HDMI is broken on GB rogers ROM, and actually it was reported to be working on ATT GB leaks but i cant assure it since i never tried it on leaks, but as long as you try a froyo rom it will work.

ok so a while ago i decided to try gb and found it was worse than froyo so i reverted back to froyo. but when i was in gb i had so many problems like radio disconnect and random restarts. now both were installed useing cwm so im wondering could my phone still have the bad ep1w radio and be running froyo? or is that not possible?

no if you used Odin to flash back to EE4 then you have the EE4 radios, if you flashed stock froyo/custom froyo in CWM then most likely you still have the GB modems which you can check by seeing what it says under baseband in about phone settings... if it is still GB radios no problem just Odin the EE4 ones, however in my personal experience those were horrible radios and my phone works best with the GB ones
hmm ok well i tryed the gummy gbe 2.0 and thats when i started getting reboot problems and radio cut outs. so i reflashed ee4. ill try a odin flash instead of a cwm flash.
Ok..I always try to figure it out by searching the forums...could not get there this time. I had Humbles rom on the phone...then I realized I should update my Baseband...so the mission starts.. I started on Basband ep3 on both the first and second lines..after reading it sounded like I needed to flash back to stock to get the update to ee4....I first deactivated voodo by adding the file directly ...reset phone then waited while the sexy voice said it was deactivated... then I flashed the stock rom...when I powered up the the phone on stock ...it did download the update...while installing the update it crashes and does not install correctly...so after messing around I re-flashed the stock rom and then downloaded the update again.....same thing happened.....then after reading some more I thought maybe my partitions where jacked so I flashed charge.pit ...now my phone wouldn't even show signs of life...stressing a bit ....I was able to flash Hummble 4.0 which brought my phone back to life...happy that it is working I'm now back where I originally started but now I'm on Ep1...even worse than before I started..lol
Does anyone have any ideas why it would not update? any help would be great!
Ep3 is the newest radio version. Ep1 is the second newest. And ee4 is the oldest. So you were really trying to unupdate. You are fine with the ep1 modems. But if you want to upgrade flash the ep3h radios through Odin.

Here ya go - EP3 Modem
The only reason you ever need to go back to stock is if you want to "unroot" your phone or to fix soft bricks. The baseband version corrosponds to the type of radios your phone is running (how you get your signal). And the radios are always independent of your ROM. Here's a short overview of the different radios from beginning to present.
ED1: Original charge modem. (sucked).
ED2: still sucks.
EE4: Latest official update for the droid charge. This is the radio that most Froyo Roms are based off of.
<I'm going to skip over a few because they are kind of non-existant now>
EP1Q: A leaked Gingerbread Radio. Significant improvements in signal strength.
EP1W: Improves upon EP1Q radio by handling data switching better. (A lot of Gingerbread ROMS are based off of this radio).
EP3H: The newest radio and probably the best. Some small improvements in data switching and got rid of occasional "popping" sounds from EP1W radio. Most of the newest ROMS use this radio as a base (Meaning they are optimized to use this radio).
Long story short, use the latest Radios. They always bring improvements. =)
Before I started to flash a new ICS Rom (which I am quite excited about) I had a D2G on Hexen. I flashed the CM9 ROM and got bricked, so I SBF flashed back to stock and tried again. Again, a brick. I tried a third time with the same result and then decided to try Gummy instead (thinking there may be some issues with CM9 because it is in Beta). It also bricked. In the end I just flashed back to my backup that I saved from right before I began this process, but I would really like to take advantage of these new ROMs. If anyone has any advice I would be most thankful.
Some notes:
I was the the newest CWM Recovery Version
I checked all the MD5 and they all aligned perfectly
Thanks for any help I receive, if you want to know something else about my phone data during this procedure, just let me know.
so you flashed back to.33 or .608 before you flash cm9?

Hexen was made for 2.4.x stock firmware (Android 2.2 and the corresponding Motorola kernel).
All newer ROMs (CM7, CM9, Gummy, Apex, etc.) are based on 4.5.x. Update to 4.5.608 (preferably via SBF; do NOT accept any OTA updates once you're on 4.5.608) and proceed from there.
Ah thanks so much, I forgot that Android Firmware numbers had to match up, I will try again later tonight

Yes i was wondering on how to go back to stock gingerbread from aokp i am planning on returning the phone to get a new captivate but i dont want to ruin my phone also
do the jigs work on any andriod phone?
Click HERE and flash the KK4 with no bootloaders if you were previously on gingerbread before AOKP. (safer that way)
And yea, the jig will still work like always.
Will the UCMC1 radios work on the stock ICS 4.0.4 firmware?
The only reason I am asking is I had the "Battery Disconnect" issue on my Skyrocket trying to upgrade with Kies, so I am trying to slowly migrate to AOSP, so far TWRP and root went fine on stock ICS (as I expected) but my next step is flash radios, test, then possibly kernel and finally try Beanstalk or another ROM. Trying to do it step by step and test and see what breaks it. Thoughts?

That's be a JB radio with a ICS rom.. Might work.. Not a show stopper if it doesn't work. Just flash an ics radio. see Vincoms sticky in the developers forum for a list of radios.

iirc no, either way test out using ics anf jb radios and see what happens, u wont brick it. I did it once but cant remember if there was a problem, one thing for sure ics roms wont work on jb roms, iirc
It works.
It doesn't the other way around.
FYI... For anyone else who has this question, UCMC1 JellyBean radios flashed into stock ICS not only work properly, but also seem to improve speed and signal strength significantly AND maybe even battery life some as well.
