on bootloader, check your hboot version:
hboot 1.23 is fw 3.12
hboot 1.27 is fw 3.24 or 3.25 or 3.30

Code:
getprop ro.build.description
in terminal returns rom base e.g. 3.25.401.101 for my current build

Thanks, I have 3.24. Should I upgrade it?
And the last question. Does the upgrade wipe everything?

Depends which rom you want to use. The latest ics builds often need 3.30, many also run on 3.24/3.25.
3.12 will accommodate older ics plus gb builds.
I haven't got round to flashing latest fw yet

It wont wipe. When you flash a new rom then it wipes your system. Upgrade will just do that..upgrade to a higher or lower firmware. Make sure your Firmware is the requirement for the Rom you flash

Thanks for the share. I got a few questions though. Is this from the ROM that was leaked two months ago (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1281040)?
The version number are the same but i'm curious on why the radio/hboot come out now instead of two months ago when the ROM as leaked.

Yes that's the same I guess.
The RUU wasn't shared to all as it could have been used not properly.
It just spread widely recently

It looks like the Radio is not stable with previous firmware (hboot 1.17/hboot 1.18). As my advise don't flash this radio with hboot 1.17/ hboot 1.18, you will face too many stability problems
You should not use it with hboot 1.17

If its just the radio you will experience some reboots. Try the whole firmware, than flash the eng hboot afterwards.

I agree with you, did in same way, and working without any issue!
I think Hboot 1.19 is included in his bootloader zip and it will be updated when flashing that zip via bootloader.
Correct me if i'm wrong.

What's the advantage of doing this? Does it make 2.08 base more stable? If I update to hb1.19 will that bugger things up if i go back to older radio for a sense 3 rom? Let's face it 2.08 is not stable as 2.3.4. After I restore all my apps I get force close on system process and reboots

If i upgrade hboot to 1.19,can i downgrade to 1.18?
installed bootloader image and now its 1.19.0000 radio : 11.15.3504.16_m
it says s-off but locked ? what does it mean?
I think you could try unlock it by guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1232107
you can use the htcdev unlock so it says unlocked
how do i change the splash1 to my own can you change a file in PG58IMG, as it wont let me change it via adb/fastboot now just says failed?

can I root my phone since I have s-off and install OTA ICS then?
Don't need to root it, just need to flash an EU branded RUU (either 1.50.401.1 for original Sensation, 1.73.401.4 for the XE)
Best get the right RUU for your phone as it now thought for warranty purposes

Will i get OTA for ICS ?
It was Vodafone branded, Until last night.
No as you're not on the current unbranded version (which is 1.50.401.1). You'll need that OTA first, or flash the RUU
Ok thank you.
Will i not get the ics at all without changing RUU.
should i be getting ota for 1.50.401.1 in the uk ?
If it's still being pushed out then yes you should. Depends if you've changed your CID to be unbranded or whether you still have it as the Vodafone one
I was on 1.50.401.1 before when branded.
i didnt change the CID it says VODAP001.
do i need to change this ?
You would've been on 1.50.161.1 before the RUU (the current Vodafone branded build)
To be truely unbranded you will need to change the CID to HTC__001 (not the double underscore)
think you are correct about the 1.50.161.1
i will try and change the CID tonight.
do you think i would get the update to 1.50.401.1 after this ?
or should i install something like
ruu_pyramid_htc_europe_1.50.401.1_r_radio_10.58.9035.00u_10.15.9035¶

You should compare the basebands not the hboot. Check under settings -> about. You can update your baseband to the latest by flashing the newer radio. But keep your hboots where they are for now, DON'T use a OTA update or RUU.

Why is older hboot better than the new ones? I know you can flash radio, but anything else? Surely there is some benefit to running the full ruu and getting updated system files in addition to updated hboot?

So rather than running ruu to get latest firmware and baseband, you recommend just flashing them individually?

Well it's a big decision. If you plan to NOT root, then yes, run the RUU and update everything. If you think about rooting, I would wait to update. Sorry.

Do not update the hboot unless you want to jump through hoops to flash roms. I have seen many complain of issues with hboot higher than 1.09. Highly recommend leaving it alone. I am on 1.06 and never have problems like the updated ones.

In which country are you living?
If it's somewhere in Europe (sparda?! - maybe Germany ) the latest radio is 1.06s.50.02.27_2_10.08.50.04L.
Anyway you should keep your current hboot so. Just flash the radio. If you want, send me a PM and I'll give you a link to a cwm backup I made right after my RUU Update. It's untouched (no personal settings etc.), only with Super SU in \system, so you will have everything like as you'd run the RUU update and rooted your device.
Please learn more about the 4.04 update here.

I appreciate your advise. I discovered that I am also on 1.06 HBoot and was thinking that I had to do an OTA update to get the latest radio. So now I should be able to find a radio update and flash it in CWM.
-------------
Half an hour of searching later, I've come to conclude that the only way to update the radio is via the RUU update process. I haven't found any newer radio that is flashable. So I don't really think there is any way to keep my 1.06 hboot AND update the radio.
if you are using cwm you need to fastboot it if using twrp recovery you can flash thru recovery

You didn't search hard enough. On hboot 1.06 you can flash radios using twrp, no ruu necessary. I know because I did it, and so did many others.

The radios on the Cyanogenmod site (first link) are from the 1.78 base. I am using TweakDroid 7.1 which is from the 2.21 base and so I want the most recent radio that goes with that base. Your second link to the dropbox gives me hope... What is it? Dated July 19, would this be the one from the newer base?
Thanks!
Yes that is the newest
The other link is to how to fastboot radio. Fastboot into recovery per instructions. Be careful.

Yeah I used that one to update to hboot 2.15 in order to get use the new 3.4 kernel and the newer ROMS. However I don't have S-OFF, as it only works with the Tmous 3.14 (as it says in the thread), and I have the Telus 3.16 version. My problem is that with this new hboot and radio update, I have no service :/ I installed the new CM and even tried some other ROMS with the 3.4 kernel, they all work fine except I never have any service. And I am not s-off so I can't go back or use a different RUU :/

I read that you can use Moonshine on this ROM now. So you have a choice. Apply moonshine and see if you can fix the radio that way or take it back to the shop. At least it is "as shipped" in it's current state so as long as you are inside the warranty period they should replace it.
