Flashing a new radio?
 
Ive had my touch pro for a while (actually three because my keyboard kept breaking) and I just received a new replacement one and want to try out flashing custom ROMS because I was too afraid to try before. I think I have figured out how to flash to MightRom 5 but I have also heard that flashing a new radio can increase battery life. Is this true? if so how do I go about doing this and what radio should I flash?

i have noticed significant battery increase once i changed to the telus 1.04 radio. It may be different in your area, but changing the radio can definitely help that problem.

Thanks I figured it out and flashed the telus Radio, i hope battery life increases. With my previous two touch pros the battery life was atrocious with stock ROM, not even lasting 12 hours.

also bad reception is another reason of battery life. im pretty sure with all my tweaks when i go to a place with awesome service i should have a whole day of battery life. i have done every battery tweak i could find haha

Flashing noob question, if I want to flash a radio from microsd, are these the right steps:

1. Load the .nbh file onto FAT32 formatted card
2. Soft reset into bootloader and it should run

Do you need to unlock to flash a radio?
About how long should it take?

Thanks

I don't know about the first 2, but your phone does have to be unlocked to flash a new radio. it takes about 3 minutes if you do it thru a computer.

now that i did it i also suggest if its your first time i would flash the radio using the pc. its not that hard and if you have problems it will tell you unlike if you flash via the sdcard
