I installed the Energy ROM and the signal strength drops down to 1. I replaced the Energy ROM with the stock Sprint ROM and the signal shows 4 bars.
I've tried to quantify the signal strength using fieldtest.exe but it seems like that program is for GSM, or dont know what "Group" to pick.
Any ideas on what's going on? Or how I can quantify the signal strength?
If it helps...my HTC Touch was using a cooked ROM as well. It was some Windows 6.5 ROM...officially it's only support to have Windows 6.1.
Thanks

More than likely the difference in signal bars is due to the taskbars installed when you flash a custom rom. The custom rom may have a taskbar with a signal indicator with a total of 5 bars rather than a total of 7 bars with the shipped rom. The only other thing it could be is that your PRL has been changed somehow during your flashing resulting in a different signal strength. Most custom roms do not include a radio so that shouldn't be an issue.
