the radio *should* update (somone correct me if im wrong) fine in hboot as long as your locked....but you wont be able to revert to the previous radio
I'm with Justin. Past history has shown that you can upgrade but not downgrade with s-on. We had this problem with the Rezound.
Also past experience has shown that a phone this new, the update is the major part. The radios should not have even changed with the update. There were no connectivity issues to fix which would call for firmware update.
SUGGEST: Strip new kernel, replace with LK or Cubed. Flash modules and new software.
From what i'm hearing, not much of an update if you are on a rooted phone with tweaks enabled. Viper tweaks allows users to do everything that the update fixes, minus wifi which i cannot speak on as i rarely use wifi but have never had an issue with it.
ok just to clear this up (for me at least..) you are saying that we can flash the radio but only if we are "locked" not unlocked? and would "relocked" work as well...
I am probably going to just go back to re-locked stock then update. etc.., but i like knowing my options
i think the radio (aka baseband?) did update but not sure what it changed..
also anyone with the update can you choose specific wifi bands and have it work properly? When i choose 2.4 only my wifi recycles off and on

yeah relocked would be the same as locked for flashing purposes
Someone mentioned they tried flashing a writeable kernel after installing the OTA and his phone went haywire.
ya I read that too haven't gotten to that yet still updating my ROM. should be able to pull the boot.img from the firmware.zip though.
I flashed the stock writable kernel after i updated and installed vipers rom and have no issues.
If you are s-off you should have no problems. Only question is where to put the file. I'm guessing if you put it on the home directory it should flash. Let us know how that works.
If you put the .zip on the root of the sdcard it should automatically detect it and flash it in the bootloader... be you need to name it the correct phone identifier number. and it has to be in all caps too

So if I flash this with TWRP, I'll have the full OTA, radio and boot loader, as well as rooted?

No, the only way to get the newer firmware is to take the OTA

So this ROM just makes getting root easier?

all this rom is, is the base rom 2.04 + Superuser/busybox so it has root built in essentially
its so you dont have to flash the superuser.zip that gives you root it has it built in but you still need to unlock your bootloader and flash a custom recovery first or you cant do anything with this rom

11Here's the new Stock OTA 2.04.605.2 710RD rooted ROM.
This does not have new radio or firmware.
Flash from recovery to install.
Devs can use also, just credit.
If wifi don't work, or won't boot, flash boot.img.
