I've flashed it twice without errors but it's not taking the update?? Am I supposed to flash it a different way other than through recovery mode (Flash from zip or sd card - can't remember exactly what the screen says..)

I went to adb shell and typed wimax_mtd and threaded back up to the report. and it shows the old radio 25043. I downloaded radio 25641, flashed it and NADA... WTF..

The odd thing is that everything (that I can tell) is running great. Unfortunately Miami doesn't have 4g yet so I'm not sure if that would be a problem..??

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong.. Or if I should bother trying to update to that newer wimax radio? Like I said, everything seems to be running good.

I even noticed a HUGE increase in my data speed. I'm getting mobilespeedtest's at 1356kbps after the OMJ v1.7 before it I was in the 400 to 600 range... So I don't want to mess a good thing up...

Any suggestions, ideas, comments, etc, etc... Please let me know.

Thanks
Lemme guess, you flashed OMJ 1.7 ROM2? That would explain your issue.
ROM1 is the one to flash to get the proper OTA updates including but not limited to the latest wimax. If you flashed the "normal" way through Recovery and you didnt already have the proper OTA updates you didnt flash the right ROM.
ROM1 is in the PC36IMG format. It needs to be placed on your SD card (named properly) and as long as your Nand is unlocked the file will run. Dont know how you rooted but if you did Toast I AND II you are all set.
Read my post HERE to see how to verify you completed the root process.
