Copy the .nbh file into the RUU directory and make sure that there is one and only one .nbh file in the directory with the ROMUpdateUtility, this is typically the RUU directory when you install or unpack the Kitchen.

DCD keeps his thread at XDA-Developers updated with versions of his Kitchen.

Make sure you are comfortable with the concepts of using the update utility and heed the warnings.

Ks.

I have loaded numerous custom ROMs, however, I have never used the RUU. This will be my first time. I copied the .nbh file into the folder with the RUU and ran it. However, it seemd like it wanted to update my ROM as well, and I soley want to update my radio.

Do I just proceed with the update and will it only update my radio? Or, am I doing something totally wrong.

If you've updated ROMS, then you've used the RUU.

You are doing it right. Just let it update. NOTE: IT WILL PERFORM A HARD RESET ON YOUR DEVICE! WIPING ALL THE DATA AND SETTINGS ON THE PHONE.

Yes, however all the ROMs/RADIOS I have ever flashed/updated to were .exe files. Also, the last time I updated my radio to 1.40, it did NOT wipe all the data and settings.

Hello, I installed this new radio last week, my EVDO speed is now faster: before 300kbps, now 700 kbs, my Slingbox player runs better now :)

The only thing that is not working is the bluetooth audio, I have a sony HBH-DS9700, before the radio I can use it for hear stereo music over bluetooth, but now is not working, but I still can make calls with my headset.

some one knows a work arround?

regards

They were probably just pre-packaged self extracting exe's with the RUU and NBH in the package.

I tried doing whats in the image, and the progress went no where and it said it failed. Should I try again? or Am I doing something wrong?

Is your phone unlocked?

Yeah I guess it was, I just read the sticky and I unlocked it using the HARD-spl, It went through the process fine, and then I just did the radio upgrade, and the phone came back. So everything works fine now, except for some issues like no battery status and battery overheating. Is there any downsides to this radio upgrade and is it possible to go back to the orginal files exactly as when I bought the phone even the rom upgrade. Also is this the same way I would install custom roms? Which custom rom is the best right now?

Just want to say that the Unofficial sprint rom 3.16.651.0 has radio v 3.27.00.
