Root New OTA on MetroPCS

[Vyrus69]

Heres a link to the update.zip if anyone can make it flashable.

Looks like there is an update to the radio in the file. Which should make this file very important!

If anyone wants to try this method below....this may or may not work, not an expert, so make sure to always backup before doing any flashing. Make sure the file is in the location you're running adb and fastboot from.

I don't have access to a computer with ADB and fastboot right now.

Download the radio image here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3c_enS_FZ-_bGVZbjlFTlJRaU0/view?usp=sharing

Open up ADB and once you have the terminal or command line open run the command "adb devices" to make sure your devices is detected by adb.

Type "adb reboot bootloader". This will reboot your device to fastboot mode.

Once in fastboot type: fastboot flash radio radio.img

Once its done type: fastboot reboot recovery

In recovery wipe dalvik and cache and then reboot.

Be VERY careful with any radio stuff. Not joking . Seen way too many bad results in this forum alone.

Again, anything to do with radios is not to be taken lightly.

Exactly....thats why whoever does this might be willing to need to KDZ back to stock if it works

Yeah, I was warning any noob's who might try messing with this and you know there will always be someone who does and doesn't read.

But,i still have a stock mm up my sleeve 24-7....

 

[Vyrus69]

Has anyone tried to flash the radio??

 

[CYCONUMNUM]

After those warnings.........
Even thou it seems like it..i don't like bricking my phone.

I'll be flashing (via fastboot)the radio tonight, I have a 2 inch gap on my screen, screen shattered and now I need a new phone. So using it as a testing phone now.

 

[Vyrus69]

Let me know how it works out!

Thanks for being the test person

If you want the update .. Unroot , install latest update, re-root through adb..kingroot no longer works after new update.

News?

News?

Phone works, still getting pesky notification because I believe that the update also updates the build.prop?

Here is a copy of the new build prop if you would like to compare.
