can i know what is the point of installing new radio? Which radio do u all recommend?

 

[sirajgoku]

flash a new rom only if have a problem with the current radio....if radio works properly there's no need to flash one

 

[androidboy123]

which ruu should i download?
from this link
http://www.filefactory.com/f/6eefe15693c7a0c9/

os 7.1
radio 5.71.09.02a
bootloader 5.11.2250.0
chip version 2.2.5.0

is your radio not working? only then flash a diff Radio....
u can flash any radio.... preferably the one similar to your present rom now...

install R/Hspl and flash a custom ROM...that should solve the problems with your Radio if any

 

[androidboy123]

I meant that in the goldcard method
They told that i need nbh file
So i dont know which file to choose in the in link they posted

 

[sirajgoku]

oh that....my bad....i was thinking of the radio....

in that case anything is fine....u can use any rom....
u just use this rom to lower your bootloader.....

 

[androidboy123]

which ruu file should i download?

There is a long list of them. I cant choose which one.


Thanks in advance.

 

[sirajgoku]

Any rom is the same....doesnt matter....just download any file and go on with the tutorial....

 

[androidboy123]

Can i install custom rom right after i downgrade my ospl or should i go through any other process?

 

[sirajgoku]

after u lower your bootloader....u hav to install RSPL or HSPL.....that's like a safe mode for flashing.... then u can flash any custom ROM you want
Tutorial for R/HSPL is in the link i gave you

if you find y cable confusing or difficult just do this

i did this on my tmobile HD7 and it worked

Guys is there any other where to install w7 phone drivers without installing Zune? Cause my connection is very slow right now.


thanks

 

[sirajgoku]

unfortunately no....Zune is a must for WP7
you said connection is slow...can you explain further?
