Re: To Flash or Not to Flash (Telus)
Use PIM backup, it's free. It made a backup of my contacts and restored them fine. You might want to try SPB backup. You get a trial period so you can backup your registry (for programs you already installed) I didn't and had to reinstall my programs.
I flashed to increase the amount of free ram for the device to use. Supposedly, battery life is supposed to be better but haven't noticed much off a difference, but I had to pull my battery a few times so the phone might have to recalibrate the battery meter. QuickGPS helps GPS acquire locks alot faster. And I have a Telus Diamond. |

Re: To Flash or Not to Flash (Telus)
backing up and restoring registry settings is a bad idea when switching roms. Thats why your battery life is no different. Only backup your contacts, email, calander, etc and you will be fine

Re: To Flash or Not to Flash (Telus)
HTC Quick GPS was left out the Telus Diamonds for some reason. GPS works out of box for many without any tweaking.
Don't back/restore registry ? Ugh, guess no trying out too many rom builds, then. |

Re: To Flash or Not to Flash (Telus)
Most of the improvments in roms come from better registry tweaks, by restoring your old settings, you destroy all of that work.

Re: To Flash or Not to Flash (Telus)
Who cares about QuickGPS... Telus supports aGPS and once you install the reg keys to properly enable it (found in this forum) you get a TTFF in seconds.
IMO the Telus rom is fine, if you use TF3D (which you shouldnt anyways) use the proper tweaks and you're good. If you really want to free up some resources, the biggest gains you will notice will be from disabling TF3D. (just wait for htc to get it right, then it might be worth sacrificing some performance for it ) |
