Root New PRI Version 1.77 now available

[wake69]

Wake69, tsipa and everyone else in between, Thank you, Thank thou, Thank you! Followed everyones instructions and boy did I make a big deal out of nada. Updated to 1.77 and I definitely can tell a difference. I don't have 4g and probably won't in the foreseeable future. But the last couple of weeks my 3g has sucked! I rooted about that time with help which is well documented. Any who I wonder if I need to update the radio and wimax. I flashed DC 3.5 beta but I can't get ahold of the developer. I donated tho get on their update list. Anyone have any suggestions? Don't need a ROM with 4g like stock just want something that is stable, wifi tether, good video I guess I want the perfect rom.

Theoretically this shouldn't affect 4g at all, that is controlled by the wimax radio

Thank you wake69 do you know if the rom I am using has a radio update? Also this new OTA update is safe for rooted phones? Last if I have the black ninja in the app drawer how do I know if it safe to do an OTA?

1. Your radio version is in is in software info under settings, baseband version is your radio. if it is not 2.15.00.07.28 you should update
2. i would not run the ota update, a rooted version will be available in a few days.
I would not do an ota update if i was rooted bc with the 2.2 ota, people lost root for about a month until the root exploit was found. A update will usually be rooted before a root exploit is found. Theoretically unrevoked 3.21 is a forever root, but i would not chance losing root

Anyone have isues with text messages after PRI 1.77? For some reason after I flashed it I can no longer recieve or send text.

 

[WaynesNside]

I trust you all and just did it.
I have crap signal all through my house, so we'll see if anything changes when I go out tomorrow

Mine does too, but we'll see how this works. Just updated it.

No issues at all with SMS after flashing 1.77 here.

so when i copy the file to my phone, and then try to copy and paste with astro in the root folder (pressed up til it wouldnt go any further) it wont let me paste the file. is that the right place for it and if so why wont it let me paste the file into there?

thanks in advance!!

Just updated. Now when I turn on 4G, it turns on, scans for less than a second, and turns itself off. Previously, I was able to (at least) pick up a poor signal after scanning for the better part of a minute.

Anyone else see anything similar?

[edit]
May be a false alarm... did a PRL update and rebooted. Now I'm getting the 'scanning....' message at least. Signal's pretty weak from here tho... doesn't always find it. I'll have to run a check from a stronger spot.

I took the plunge, here are my benchmarks. This is 3G, not 4G.

 

[Mr. Ed]

So confirmed from the office today...3g and 4g speeds are faster up and down...still inconsistent tho
phone signal seems to be much better inside my store...which is a huge improvement

 

[EvoJok3r]

No Problems here either.... So far so good.

I flashed about 2 hours ago and I do feel the phone more responsive and fater.I can't make any comments on the signal since I I get pretty bad signal at home usually 1-2 bars.

Go down to the /sdcard dir/folder and paste it there. That is the root of the sdcard!

Mr kotches,

After we flash all of the radios should we delete the file or save it?
Does anyone know if the old Network app is still relevant since the froyo update?

Thank you

You are the man! Sadly, I will never be worthy.

I hit 8033 kbps today, new personal record. This PRI is monstrous.
