Did you put it in bootloader mode first? Also, as soon as it gives you that error, dont even unplug your device and run it again, should work

oddly enough i actually got less signal after upgrading. according to phonealarm i had 34 then did the upgrade and now have 18. i dont plan on downgrading but thought i'd provide my experience for others to see. i hear battery life is better and that interests me more than a smidgen of signal. vzw btw

Will this work on stock Sprint ROM?

Does this work for the ROM shipped from Sprint (I can't upgrade to 3.3 or 3.5 until there is a solution for the goodlink issue with those ROM's)?

Waspie: Move it around a bit, and give it some time. Then test it again, it improved mine and many others. Hope things work out for you.

chachi69: Yes, it will upgrade any apache, running any rom. This upgrades the radio stack in your phone, so it is independant from your rom

I just flashed my veri$on 6700 with this radio rom. Everything worked smoothly. I'm getting 3 bars of EVDO here at my desk. In the past my phone seemed to fluctuate between 2 and 3 bars here. I haven't seen it drop to 2 yet since the upgrade.

Thanks for posting this.

Well after you complete the update for Verizon, the best thing to do is update your PRL files. To do this, dial *22899. This will udpate your Roaming capability and programming on the phone. Then soft reset your phone, or usually it will complete on its own.

This also can be accomplished by dialing *228. Then it will prompt you to program your phone, or update your roaming capability. The *22899 simply updates both with out the manual selection prompts!

DISCLAIMER! PLEASE make sure that you complete this step IN YOUR *HOME* network area. Ex. If you live in Columbus, Ohio, then complete the update there. If not the update will change your home calling area, and will jack up your phone and service areas!!!!!!!
