5.7.893 radio/kernel

hmm there's gotta be a way to get a full restore. need to keep digging i guess

dags5000, I have the full file. It's zipped at 700 MB but it opens to over 2 Gig. tell me where to post it and I'll put it up when I get home from work. My contribution for all the help I've been able to extract from this forum. dancedroid
 
In the meantime while im waiting on him to finish reflashing my phone, could sum1 post "about phone" stats for build 5.7.893? And also stock build if any1 has that. Btw, typing this from this little razr.

Bilbo, I hope you're not lying. If you're telling the truth, you will have done the Bionic community a huge favor and a statue will be made in your honor. I'd say upload the file to MediaFire.com, or Multiupload.com
 
We sry guys, this store said their PC wouldnt act right either. Sorry, at least I tried something. Ok what is this guy talkn aboit above, post that .zip file plz.

First this isn't my first rodeo either. P3 warned us on 893 when upgrade there is no going back.I still say there has to. It is a great lose that p3 has moved on. Also since DX days the moto droids have been locked up tight. And there will b no unlocking so every thing we learned and did on od is tossed out the window. I think our only hope is getting the update radio 893 and reflash that. I mean if they can flash us a radio zip for 886 then u would think they could on this.

What file is? Sounds like the new fhz file u use rsd. 5.5 when u add it it ask if u want to uncompressed it. also I tried the full 886 file and it soft bricked my phone. I guess the mismatched kernel radio borked it. Luckily the one click 886 system brought it back.

Dam that phone is way old school u should have hit check update and update it
Ok i went in and talked to my buddy Jon...He said that they have this flashing computer in the back and that it does more to the phone than what a factory reset would do...BUT, he couldnt guarantee that the radio/kernal would be changed since he never actually paid attention to the radio/kernal before or after that process. This was my lunch break and I didnt have much time so I didnt get it did since he said it would take virtually 20 mins or so to do the process. He would have to put the phone to it boot img or something (recovery basically) for the process to work....I told him i didnt have that kind of time because of my lunch so I told him that i would be back later...But while i was in there i took a pic of a store bionic "about phone" page and this is what i get below. Will post picture on my next 15 min break here around 2.

hey man!!! post it on mediafire or any of those sites? does that work? Id love to check it out! And where did you get it?

Thats a big file, i sent you a private message, my friend said http://www.sendspace.com/ might work. If not, anyone else know of a free site that can handle a 700MB upload? maybe google docs? not sure tho

Thanks

Sure, I found this if you have some time to kill. Since I wont be home till 7:00 EST.
I found it on XDA Forums but they have it archived, the link is here
I am downloading it to do a comparison with the file I already have. I'm pretty sure it's the same one.
Some good MOTO software here.
[FXZ] Droid Bionic Stock 5.5.1_84_DBN-55 [Archive] - xda-developers
Have fun:)
 
hmm unless im mistaken this has already been floating around, and still has the problem with the kernel preinstall failure check. I believe upon trying to flash this, it will still fail on the kernel :( I will look more into after work though.
 
Darn, I was hoping it would be an updated FXZ file, not the one that's already here. I want to get off of 5.7.893 but I'll probably be stuck until a newer one gets leaked or the OTA comes.
 
If you updated with the leaded updates, you probably won't be able to take the official OTA, that's the issue we're trying to solve here. still wondering where that signed radio.zip file came from. With that around, gotta wonder if there's a signed boot.zip. Who's got it!!! :)
