Root Radios and reception

[RCope48]

Hey im curious as to how flashing updated radios will help with signal strength,how to tell what I have and what the latest ones are?

If you are on a sense its under settings/about phone/software and baseband
I believe 2.15.00.0808 is the newest radios

Just know that while flashing radio's you NEVER NEVER NEVER want to pull your battery. Thats is one of the few sure fire ways to brick your phone.

radios may or may not help and it is not necessary that you do it. i updated my radios and i saw no difference in my signal strength. so that is up to you. one thing besides what rxpert says is that make sure that you have at least one nandroid backup that has wimax backed up. flashing radios is one of the ways that you could lose your wimax keys and if you do not have a nandroid backup with wimax then you will lose 4g for good.

please read this:

I upgraded my radios too and it didn't make any difference for me either.
