Ok. Last night I upgraded my radio to Sprint v1.11F. So far I am noticing quite a difference in battery duration. My phone was fully charged about 1 pm. I unplugged it soon after and it is now at 91% almost 5 hours later. Granted I've not done much with the phone except for looking at a couple emails and weather and stocks updates. I have gmail set for 30 min intervals.

Prior to the radio update I might have been closer to 80% or less by now. Another impressive fact is that before, I would see the percentage drop even as I looked at it, kinda like a count down clock. Now it holds steady. It stayed at 92% for what seemed like a long time while the phone was dormant.

So, the combination of the upgraded radio and the tweaks embedded in Kevin's ROM looks extremely promising. Now if only I could solve the thread message issue I would be very contented.

Thanks again to all.
