How to upgrade to latest 1.29.401.12 Radio
Credits:
We are glad we have our unlocked devices and can happily flash Custom ROM`s, backup and restore nandroids or flash mods. Nevertheless there are still some restrictions, since we still have no S-Off. Last week the latest 1.29.401.12 OTA update arrived and there is an option to upgrade via firmware.zip.

Who needs this?
Everyone who flashed first Custom Rom and also wants best possible signal quality.
This is how you can upgrade your RADIO without S-Off
1. Download Radio update.zip below and copy to your SD
2. Only an optional step for those, who want to have a Radio Firmware backup just in case
a) Connect your device via USB in recovery and open cmd in fastboot folder:
adb shell
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p31 of=/sdcard/radio_firmware.img
You will now have current Radio on SD as radio_firmware.img
Expected output:
3. Now just flash the Radio update.zip as usual in recovery, reboot your device and enjoy latest Radio
In case you want / need to restore your current Radio backup:
Either you adjust updater script to radio_recovery.img or just do it via adb in recovery:
dd if=/sdcard/radio_firmware.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p31
