Thanks!

Is it safe to flash 198_7 directly or do I have to incrementally upgrade?

Direct flashing is fine.

Thanks again.
Got a replacement Photon from Sprint last week and i've been getting those random reboots that was a problem with the older firmware.

I'm trying to unlock my photon going with these instructions and QBKing77's video, but I don't see either the stock sbf that qbking says, or the derpunlock.sbf that you say in your postings. Where can I find it, or is there another sbf that I need to find. This is my first run at a motorola phone, so I don't want to mess anything up.

As of 23:57 GMT -5 April 20, 2012 I have started the closing of Imperium Initiate website. The final wipe and domain release will occur on April 30th. JamesChilds' Photon Website will be the only comprehensive source for the Photon when it's completed.

This thread is now for reference only and will no longer be maintained.

Sad to see that site closing. But thanks for all the work you did.

I have found a solution and am up and running again. It's not perfect but does offset running costs so I'll go with it. Here's the updated info.

fixed

Technically any - but if you want the latest, go with 198_7
