EDIT 2: Conclusions are in! See post #22 of this thread for what I discovered, and how I figured it.
EDIT:In this thread, I ended up loading all 6 currently available radio ROMs and benchmarking them with a utility hosted over at XDA Devs (Thanks PalladiumTD!) That utility is located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=444920. If someone with better eyes for interpreting large amounts of similar text data can analyze my logs and come to some conclusions, I'd appreciate it!
Hello.
I have read various threads that mention a newer radio (from Telus?) that works on the CDMA Touch Pro. (Sprint). Try as I might, I have been unable to find this radio in the upgrades forum. I use my TP as my only Internet connection at home for my desktop (via USB), and even with the keyboard out and the screen off, it gets AMAZINGLY hot sometimes. It seems that the more data that is transferred at once, the hotter it gets. (i.e, cool(er) during low b/w usage, really hot during 2xx/kB/s BT transfers.)
I have read that the new radio improves battery life, helps the phone run cooler, and may even improve reception.
Where can I find it, and how do I load it?
Thanks!
