[Q] do you guys flash latest fw every time you change roms? - HTC Sensation

im just curious. pretty much every rom thread with latest ics says to flash rom, then flash latest firmware. ive been on the latest fw for a while now and never flash the firmware after i put a new rom on. so, do you?

Hi,
If you have the latest firmware (3.32) on ICS,Then there is no need to flash it again every time you install one of the latest ICS ROMS.

yeah 3.32 is the way to go now, try the sebastianFm or faux kernels, both are stable.

you just have to install fw once , and when there was a new fw you need to flash the new fw just once .
no need to flash same fw again and again .

Flash firmware is only required if you decide to go back to the old GB ROM

thanks for the response guys. im just trying to troubleshoot my mobile data drop problem. since it has happened with a number of different roms im just trying to rule things out.

Well done very good

and put in the phone , and think via recovery install
but nothing ! it showed red triangle error

how instel the
JellyBean Update 4.1.1 for x.xx.401.x - World Wide English (WWE).zip
if It does not find any updates , before the warranty i had the jb the phone is not rooted
now i have only 4.0.4
I am pretty sure I know what is going on...
You installed the zip in recovery over the stock ICS! You went back to stock ICS cuz they replaced the board. and you cnt just flash a Jellybean zip over ICS you need to flash the JB kernel too!!!

Please, consider all you people asking in the Firmware Team forums, both for method and new uploads on sbf.droid-developers.org

I want to ask something guys...
Since I hadn't flashed stock firmwares for ages it's an easy question to answer...
Flashing the stock firmware wipes all data or not...??
I want to flash http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/44906/N915FXXU1BOC6_N915FOXE1BOC6_CAU/ this rom.
It makes an update or, reinstalls everything?

No...you will not loose data. But as usual...when upgrading rom or firmware...especially when they are from totally different platform such as kitkat and loly...it is highly recommended to do a full wipe. Otherwise you will find some glitches or other issues .

That's because the carriers are blocking downgrades now so once you take a certain firmware update you can no longer go backwards. Other custom roms are fine because the bootloader is unlocked.
I'm not trying to go back a firmware I'm just trying to get on the latest stock ROM . I know they won't let you go back . Any suggestions to get back to stock I got all my stock tar file ROMs from sammobile

It looks to me as if everything went okay except the modem.bin file so in the firmwares you have use a program like 7zip and extract the modem.bin from a newer(different) firmware and then zip it back up into modem.tar to flash it with odin.
