Re: Verizon CDMA radio upgrade?

when i check Radio ROM version during boot and in 'settings/system' is still says 1.03.03... stock ROM.

i have tried flashing using both RUU installed and SD flash... both work exactly as intended and both complete 'successful'.

IF it is flashing properly... how can i confirm?

Aren't Blackstone and Quartz GSM phones? Have you tried the Telus radio or Sprint radio in the radio thread here at PPC Geeks?

Re: Verizon CDMA radio upgrade?

update:

tried a couple of the Sprint ROM... including the 1.11

flashed fine. could see correct ROM version in settings and on boot.

but GPS was junk. HTC GPS Tool would freeze at 38sec after finding only 2 satellites.
would have to use reset on bottom of phone... *sigh*
TOM TOM would never find a signal.

tried reprogramming phone... no help.
tried reappling GPS fix... no help.

reflashed original VZ 1.03.03 vR.
GPS and TOM TOM ops check normal.
