Just Want the New Radio From the OTA> Here It Is!
XT926 Droid Razr/Maxx HD ONLYIf you have exhausted every attempt to get the OTA or simply are interested in the OTA and want the NEW RADIO from the OTA then THIS IS WHERE YOU CAN GET IT. First, off a BIG THANK YOU TO SAMURAIHL for hooking us up with this .zip that provides the Radio ONLY.
I MUST WARN THAT THIS UPDATE APPEARS TO NOT REVERSE. AS IN THIS IS AT YOUR OWN RISK, AND THERE IS NO GOING BACK.THIS METHOD HAS BEEN TESTED ON AN UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER, THERE IS NO INFO AS TO IF IT WILL WORK FOR A STOCK LOCKED DEVICE, IF LOCKED AND ATTEMPTING PLEASE POST RESULTS.
Begin by downloading this file.
1) To install this you will need RSD Lite, I have the latest version which is 6.1.5 (there is an MTK Patch, but this is a file that is not needed). If you have RSD Lite version 6.1.4 and up you are fine, otherwise download RSD Lite 6.1.5 here.
2) With RSD Lite downloaded go ahead and install it to your computer, which I should mention the RSD version I have is for Windows only. In addition you will need the latest version of Device Manager on your computer. With both RSD Lite and Device Manager installed. Go ahead and open RSD Lite.
3) Pick up your XT926 Droid Razr/Maxx HD and go into Settings> Developer options> USB Debugging and make sure that the check box is checked.
4) If you are Rooted or Unlocked go ahead and go into OTA Rootkeeper and Temp-Unroot your device, just a precaution as there is no way to Downgrade after this install, better to be safe than sorry.
5) Go ahead and put your XT926 Droid Razr/Maxx HD into AP Fastboot> Reboot device by holding Power + Volume (-) down, once screen is black or blank> hold Power + Volume (+) up, press the Volume (-) down button to AP Fastboot mode, then press Volume (+) up.
6) Connect the device to USB.
7) Go into RSD Lite make sure device appears and click to open the file, find the radio_updater.zip click to open it and go ahead start compressing and install.
8) This will Flash the new Radio to your device. Success!
I should note that once it has installed it is best to let the device restore. It should take anywhere between 5-10 minutes for the new Radio to appear. But it does. Enjoy! :icon_ lala:
This works great. not one problem. but i did revert back from 4.2.2 to stock before i attempted this. had custom recovery and didnt temp unroot either. great job!!!
What's so special about this radio again?
Is this the one that will let you use Sim cards from at&t?
What if I have TWRP recovery? Has anyone tried this with TWRP? DancingNexus
And where you say "it is best to let the device restore", does that mean I have to reinstall everything and set up my phone again?
This works perfectly fine with TWRP or any other Recovery, I have done this myself with TWRP and it works.
After this Radio flashes to your device, I would give it about 5-10 minutes for everything to settle. There is no Data loss or anything like that with this, it is just the Radio and nothing more, :biggrin:
Any idea what does this improves?
Also... can I use any rom with this or should I use stock?
This a new Radio that is designed to improve over the previous, I've noticed slight improvements. I also tend flash many ROMs often and a stronger radio is always helpful.
If installing I recommend using a stock blur system ROM, for the install.
