Re: new radio 1.07.06f

i did a quick test with the new us cellular radio installed on my ex's tp. both are sprint, and the phones were sitting next to each other. my phone, on a call was at 341ma throughout, bounced to 400ma for a second and back down to 341, with the telus rom. on hers, it was consistently 420ma throughout the call, and bounced to around 485. gps lock on hers was slightly quicker, but not by much at all. it had more satelites sooner, but maybe by 1 or 2 seconds. i did the call tests 5x, and the gps 3x with a soft reset after each. data speeds were the same, and heat was about the same, hers getting very slightly hotter in temp by the time i was done testing the calls. i kept the calls on for 5 minutes each to test for temp.

i didn't check the debug menu, but my phone with the telus had a few bars more than hers while sitting next to each other on a desk by a window.

i told her to try the us cellular rom out for a few days and see how it works for her. she had a lot of problems with the phone heating up to the point of not being able to charge so i figured the telus radio would help, but then i figured i'd try the new one out of curiousity.
