I have had mt TP2 since it officially dropped on VZW. Love it. I have unlocked and flashed the hell outta it. Never had a problem till yesterday. I was interested in radios. Saw them on the upgrade page but never really knew what they were. Decided since I had VZW 1.88 radio i wanted the new one (2.23). So I proceed to flash to phone. I do it once and something weird happened on the screen. I should quit there. I Reflashed and all hell broke loose. My phone was stuck in Bootloader land. Hard resets wouldnt work. Then I told myself be calm and do some research it probably isnt that bad. I found a thread at XDA. The kid was like yea i got my phone stuck so I connected to USB and just flashed a stock rom and radio from my carrier. Luckily PPC had just the remedy downloaded the VZW 6.5 and 2.23 radio. Everything was fine. Once phone was back to normal I flashed back to my favorite ROM S3-8 by Deck (nice) with the Cookie home tab 1.5.4...even nicer. And to boot I got the new radio 2.23 becasue I flashed the upgrade to the TP2 from VZW...just wanted to share in case anyone else has same issue. Peace

What does upgrading your radio give you?

Edit: Congrats on fixing your phone.

Radio connects you to the cell tower, give you reception, good,better or bad. That is users try different ones...simple.

What about for sprint HTC tp2. My phone is in the same situation ur verizon one was in. Please help me. I sent u a PM also with my contact details.

I cant seem to be able to installing the stock ROM even because the phone doesnt boot. It only charges in off mode with the orange light. When i try installing a rom it says error connecting because it doesnt turn on at all.

Please help me.
