no more radio flashing with RUU's

[nick aguas]

flashing the 3.39 radio through an RUU will not work with the 2.40 bootloader. this is just a work around flashing from a non-SDHC card. can you explain what you did to flash without 1.20?

your thinking of the 3.49 radio/ROM update. 3.39 is purely the radio for carriers other than Sprint. to quote you...

I know what the thread is about here. Just trying to keep people from downgrading their bootloaders if there is no reason to; especially if they already have a gps version rom on it.

since I'm Sprint I just flashed the whole rom. but what i'm saying is there is no reason to have to flash back to 1.20 BL in order to flash 3.39 radio. it should be able to flash from sdcard as long as the proper type card is used.

right, but again, i was wondering if there was a way to flash without the SDCard, and thats the method to use otherwise it hangs at 9%. you SHOULD be able to flash it, but you cant without downgrading, and it has no ill effects, at least with a 3.3x radio already

I am also having the 3.39 radio flash with RUU fail at 8%. I just got my phone last week so here is exactly what I have done so far.

Verizon xv6800

1. I run Vista, so first I driver hacked Windows Mobile Device Center with the latest Active Sync driver.
2. Used Olipro 2.20 unlocker.
3. Installed 3.35 radio using the latest RUU.
4. Booted phone to the boot loader and installed 3.2.1-Vetvito Sexier Windows.exe for my first ROM.

After that I tried loading the 3.39 radio with RUU a few times and it failed at 8%.

Also tried the Sprint ROM 3.49 w/ 3.39 radio .exe it starts RUU but it fails with a Windows program error as soon as start the flash (never see flash % indicator).

I can't do a SD card radio load with my 1 GB card formatted FAT32 (never starts). I have the .nbh file named correctly and on the root, maybe I need to try a different SD card.

I can however cook up ROMs with the kitchen and load them perfectly (which I have done twice now).



I'm wondering what would be my best method of loading the 3.39 radio w/o buying a new SD card.

Any advise?

Thanks
