Re: Best Radio for Sprint

I've been using 1.11.00F for several days now and the battery life for me is dramatically improved. Signal strength at my house is better than the stock radio, by about 1 bar. I use a fair amount of data and and between 2 and 3 hours of voice per day. The battery has yet to die during the day. I usually have 30% left at night. The old radio wouldn't last the day. I am running the stock ROM and haven't tweaked anything else on this phone (my 3rd TP) yet.

Re: Best Radio for Sprint

Your results will likely depend on your local service coverage. In my office I have marginal Sprint coverage. With the stock Sprint radio (1.03) I had 1 to 2 bars at most places in my office, with a couple of dead spots. I flashed to the Sprint 1.11 radio yesterday and had fewer bars everywhere, including a major dead spot right at my desk . I then flashed to the Telus radio and now have an average of 1 bar better coverage everywhere. YMMV.

Re: Best Radio for Sprint

I use the Telus v1.04; however, I've heard that the sprint v1.11 is just as good.
There's a step by step of how to flash to the Telus radio in my signature if you've never done it before. Pretty easy though.

Re: Best Radio for Sprint

you all convinced me to flash the sprint new radio 1.11v but when I tried to flash after 5% it tell me it it the wrong rom for my device. What should I do? I am using mightyrom 4.12 and stock radio 1.03.
