Heh heh heh..I've got flashing down to a science now, it shouldn't take me more than an hour to get things the way I want.

Thanks NRG!!!

On a side note, I have some more good news (for me at least). I have been having some irregular battery issues. Some days I get great battery, some, I have to charge twice.

The other day, I talked to sprint support and got them to send me a new Airave. My old airave was decent at voice but did not support data and I thin that was one of my main reasons my battery life was so bad on some days when I'm at home. Well, my new "Airvana" arrived the day before yesterday and I got it all set up. The rest of thursday was great but yesterday was fantastic. I had a "busy day" on the phone which included 2 hours of listening to music via my BT headset while mowing the lawn and several phone calls and I finished the day out at 60% battery. I also have all my bars and outstanding data.

I know this really isn't NRG rom specific but it does bring to mind the signal quality vs battery life issue as NOT always being ROM related.

If you don't have a good signal in your house then talk to your carrier about getting a femtocell. AFIK, Sprint, Verizon and AT&T sell them. It makes a huge difference in battery life.

I travel on business and you are right on about signal. I am in a one to none bar area, still with EVO and going into my third battery every day. In good signal areas with the same usage...one battery lasts until about 5 or 6 PM.
