I compiled the Radio Rom for you guys and put it into an RUU folder like in the radio thread.
I tested the radio by renaming to RHODIMG and flashing from the SD card. I can verify that it works and doesn't hard reset you device. I have not tested from the RUU, but it should be fine.

I seriously hope that this fixes the issue of dropping to 1X. From my communications with VZW, the problem has been pointed at the radio ROM. I guess we will find out!

Dumb question. Could you flash this on an UNLOCKED sprint phone, run a sprint provisioning cab and be good to go on Sprint?

On previous vzw updates for other phones, I recall that there were two .NBH files in the .exe file, one for the ROM and one for the radio. When I unzipped the .exe file for this one, there is only one .NBH file, so it looks like the radio is incorporated within the ROM update, and someone with skills is going to have to extract it if folks want just the radio.

I'm just going to load the whole thing to get the newer radio and play with it for a couple of days anyway, since I'm waiting for a MaxManilla update before changing from NRG's 28011 Sense 1921 ROM to the newer Sense 1922 ROM.

I'm curious to know if the new radio fixes the voice-only network pop-up that appears on all custom 6.5 ROMs when the "Extended Network" ERI is shown. The only confirmed fix I've come across is to load a modified PRL that doesn't use the ERI. It only effects a small number of Verizon custom ROM users as most never roam off the Verizon owned/operated network so it hasn't gotten any attention by the ROM Chefs.

If I wat to downgrade later, will a hard reset after I flash to the official 6.5 get me back to 6.1, or will I have to hunt down the original ROM and reflash?

I'd really love to install this from my SD card since my USB isn't working so great. How does one access the .nbh file within the vzw installer exe?
