[Q] Bamf 2.1 radio? - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What radio has most people used or most popular for the Bamf 2.1 rom??

2.5 here...

have you experienced any problems at all outside of the small bugs in the beginning?

2.5 also, I had a reboot today I have only been on this Rom for 24 hours, but I was rebooting on my froyo ROM also. I was hoping new radio would fix it, but no such luck.

Back to froyo, need kernel suggestion.

Ok, so after flashing every new gb Rom, I've decides to go back to a froyo bases Rom because they're way less buggy, and get better battery life. However I remember that in the olden days when I was running bamf 1.5 I also ran imoseyons kernels and got insane battery life. I mean I could go like 16 hour and still have half a battery. I'm now in bamf 1.8.6 with new mr2 radio, but with the built in kernel, the charging time don't seem as fast as I remember and the battery life doesn't seen to be as good as I remember. Does anyone that's back on a froyo Rom have a suggestion on what kernel to use? Or a link to the old imoseyon kernels? Would those older kernels support the mr2 radio?

Here's the link, and yes they work. I'm running it know with the OTA radio and BAMF 1.8.6 and I love it.
Are you running at 1.4 GHz or in "battsaver" mode?
I'm running 1.4 "Normal"
Cool, thanks. I just loaded this up and it runs very well.
Ok, thanks. I'm running the lean in battsave mode. So far so good. Thanks.

Radio

Hi all, just wanted to find out your opinions in updating from MR1 to MR2 aside from the facts that newer ROMs will only work with MR2 or 2.5. I'm still running ThunderRom with an MR1 radio and so far my thunderbolt's actually running faster than it was on the newer ROMs.

The 2.75 and the release from chingy have been my favorites. Much better 4G/3G handoff than the previous radios. I do believe that every Bolt is different and will react differently to certain radios.
I've had the best luck with mr2 under cm7 using dream kernel... that combo gives me the best battery life in a aosp rom.. mr2.5 was fine but seemed to drain my battery much quicker. Haven't tried mr2.75 though.

Back to stock..

I was wondering what I need to do to get back to stock, but stay rooted... I'm running infusedtheory currently. Just getting tired of reboots and freezes with every ROM I've tried. Unless someone can point me to a rock solid ROM... Thanks..

Install one of the stock roms for rooted phones if you want stock on a rooted phone. Gingeritis 3d is rock solid for me

If you're getting freezes and reboots on custom roms, that to me sounds more like a kernel/O'C issue or maybe even a hardware problem.
My phone hasn't been unrooted since launch but even when I flashed my first custom Rom everything was much smoother.

infusedtheory is a beta ROM using the new htc kernel. Every ROM using that kernel is having issues.
I would use gingertheory or the older senseless rom by droidtheory. Those have been rock solid for 95% of the users. You might need to play with speedtweak, but droidtheory's roms have been very good.
I got reboots on the old radios but the new mr2 has run great with no reboots on any BAMF roms I've run lately.
Official 1.70.605.0 MR2 OTA
This is the official OTA MR2 ROM rooted and deodexed. This is a stock as you can get while still rooted.
thanks to all of you... i installed the gingeritis 3d and it is running perfectly. i don't think i've used a rom/kernal combination that didn't reboot or turn off on me at some point and i've ran this for nearly 2 days now and its been flawless. just fyi to you guys, i was getting reboots on the mr2, mr2.5, and the newer .627 (i think thats the one) radios, with numerous roms. i installed them correctly, i'm sure of that. not sure what the deal was. oh well, gingeritis 3d is pretty awesome. thanks again everyone.

[Q] Gingeritis 3D 1.0 Beta 7 Data prob

For some reason it can't hold a 3g connection for 5 minutes before it goes to 1x. I'm on thee official mr2 radio. Should I be using mr2.5 ? If so links, just make sure they're not dead.
More info needed. Did this just start? Did it start after flashing the ROM?
I am running the same ROM but using the .704 radio Chingy leaked and no issues at all. You can get it from his site.

Uh, its been a problem for beta 6 and 7 for me. I don't have this problem on 1.2. Also the battery really drains. I'm gonna try that radio you were talking about
Im on beta 6, dont have that problem either, try the new chingy radio like the above poster said, works great for me.

I'm using the MR2.5 radio and getting crazy long battery life. I thought the Chingy leaked radio was junk on many fronts. Namely, it holding a signal sucked. Somewhat the same with the MR2 leak. Please don't bark orders to post links and demand they be assured to work. It's rude. Go look for them yourself. It's not like its actually hard to do.

Using old software......??

I rooted my tb within a couple days of getting it.... I'm on 2.2.1. And 1.70.605.0...... Is this old software??? And I have been getting error codes while testing people... Y is that??

That's pretty old. The current version is Android 2.3.4 and Software version 2.11.605.9
I would suggest updating to a 2.3.4 ROM, which could solve your errors.
On a side note, your running a froyo radio, so you'll need to upgrade your radio too.
Here is a link to the latest radio and instructions for how to flash it:

To check, go to settings, about phone, software information, more, and look at the baseband. That is your radio version. Compare it to the latest version.
Sounds like youve been downloading aosp Roms. Try a sense based Rom. KillaSense, Skyraider Zeus, Thunderstick. There are a lot of good ones out there.
