Thanks for this. Wish I had read this and the radio thread earlier; I was in an area where I got reception before on my TP but was only roaming on my TP2.. now I can carry around a bunch of radios just in case!

can you flash Stock roms like this too? like the sprint

would i just change the RUU or do i have to add the SPL signed.nbh? i would imagine if i flash just the RUU it would work but without the benefits of flashing the stock rom to clear things..

???

you do the same thing you do with custom roms. extract the exe with Winrar or similar program, then rename the nbh file to RHODIMG.nbh and put it on your mem card.

would it have the benefit tho? since the stock rom is a signed rom... as to wipe the data... not sure if im explaining it right.

not sure what you mean. flashing a rom wipes your phone, regardless if it's signed or not and regardless if you flash from microsd card or computer.

i know that but you know how it is said to flash back to stock then flash custom...

i had a problem not too long ago where the splash screen for a rom stayed after i flashed a diff rom... i flash the stock and it cleared it.

i forgot how it was explained when i saw it. i think on a MM thread...

even after you flash a custom rom you get some data left behind but apparently flashing a signed rom clears the internal memory...

like i said, i may not understand this or know to explain what i saw...

Mike suggested flashing stock then his rom after one of his roms

After the flash procedure is finished it sits at the grey screen letting you know it was successful.

Is there anyway to reboot the phone now easily? A certain button sequence perhaps? I am a fairly rugged mobile user so I use a hard snap on cases to protect the phone. It is a PITA to get that cover off and then back cover and then find something to press the reset button (stylus long gone lol..) to get it to reboot. IMHO HTC made a step in the wrong direction moving the reset button behind the battery cover!

Cheers.
