I lost my radio RagingIdiot-style by doing an untested unverified PRL update via a .cab file method.
Actually, it is also possible that other processes, programs, updates and the like could have been at fault. It's just that the only thing I did different that day that I hadn't tried before was the .cab file PRL update.
As we all know there are so many variables that could be at play it's sometimes hard to nail down the exact fault of a problem, especially when it happens while trying to solve a different problem.
To the best of my memory, I think the radio became unstable at some point after the .cab prl update, so then I tried updating the radio or the ROM and then I noticed it was gone entirely. Just stated "None" under Radio version.
I didn't have to kill any processes before putting it into bootloader mode. One step I left out of my first post above is very likely unnecessary, but for the sake of being thorough - I deleted all files in the extended ROM directory before going into bootloader.
