Updating my Radios?

Ok, forgive my noobness...

I am on AOKP MS5 with Franco Kernel MS3. But, I am on the IMM30B radios (I think - baseband says I515.09 V.FA02 / I515.FA02).

I would like to upgrade to the IMM76K radios (FC05 / FC05). But, how do I do this? I know I can just flash them like any other update, but I read somewhere that it only works if coming from the 4.0.2 radios. Is that true? Do I need to downgrade to 4.0.2 radios before upgrading to the 76K 4.0.4 or can I go from 30B 4.0.4 to 76K?

Also, are the MD5 sums different for each file? I hear people saying to check the MD5 values, but they are all different. Does that mean they are actually different versions of the radios, or are MD5 values just a unique identifier for the file?

Thanks for any help!

I came from the fa02 radios too- no problems at all- just flash in cwm. the CDMA one takes a while to flash, so don't panic :) The md5 is a digital signature to make sure your downloaded copy is the exact same file (not corrupted) as the original, so your md5 should match the one provided by the op exactly.

As I understand it, they are not all created equal. Some are upgrades from certain existing radios (may not be 100% accurate here). Anyhow, I know this one is a full radio update: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1630438

I've used this one on AOKP M5 and the same radio you're on, so that one should work for you.

On that post he said he upgraded from 4.0.2 to 4.0.4 76K...I am coming from 4.0.4 30B I think. Will it still work ok?
