When I say the location services has been disabled, it won't constantly try to update your location.

I'm not sure why you mentioned dropped phone calls and WiFi in the same breath, but I'm thinking you're meaning two separate things. You have dropped calls, and when you have a weak Wi-Fi signal, it consumes more juice to update things.

ROMs will not solve dropped calls or low Wifi.. thats all hardware related.

yea, i got all that. I meant that when WiFi goes out at work, I'm relying on EVDO/1x to get updates and data. When I'm getting a weak signal, it has to work harder, no? I just brought up the no dropped calls thing because I'm getting a weak signal (1 bar, and sometimes roaming) so data takes FOREVER but i can still make and receive phone calls w/ no problem.

Anyway, thanks a ton for the info. I'm seriously debating doing this

With regards to the location setting....I'm not really having battery issues, so is there a way to restore those settings if i flash to Fresh?
