Are you referring to different radios in winmo?

What do you mean by governor? I don't think we have tried different radio versions - I assume you mean radio firmware, flash radio firmware thru bootloader/WinMo right? I don't know if anyone has done any experimentation on radio firmware, but our RIL is extremely borked - you HD2 folk have it easy, phh just wrote a wrapper so you guys don't even have your own RIL code . We're using the Vogue RIL, modified to work for our devices. It is in the process of being overhauled, which I am ridiculously excited for .

I'm talking about the CPU governor built into the kernel, and I can tell you flashing a different radio firmware could have some huge effects at some point, if you know something is borked like the ril then yeah it's no mystery as to what is messed up.

can't wait to see the new ril and it's only going to get better from here on out that's for sure.

That's interesting....maybe we should list radios that we're using to see if particular ones r causing issues.

I think you should because like on HD2 if you use a 2.07.xx radio you get SOD a lot, if you use 2.12.50 radio you get better battery life in WP7 and more drivers work, and if you use 2.15.00 radio you get really good stability and battery life in Android...

wouldn't be a bad idea to try different radios along with fixing the RIL

Thanks for the info. I'm currently in android right now but later tonight will reset to winmo and see what radio I'm on, and try one of the others and see how it goes.

just for grins you might do something like make a spreadsheet and put some logcat reads as well as mah drain and SOD frequency or something with 2 or 3 radios and see if anything significant turns up.

Wow, ghost town around here for the past 5 days. I just got back from a snowboarding trip to Mammoth Mountain. Awesome snow conditions but had to drive on snow cables (not even chains) for 20 miles at 30 mph Yeah, i don't have a 4 wheel drive. It was freakin' cold... 15 deg F... i know how you feel now, fishingmedic. Awesome conditions for snowboarding; thank goodness only a few kids and their families decided to show up during their spring break because there were no lines on the lifts and gondola. Wished I could stay another day snowboarding, oh well, next year.

Back OT, can't wait for the RIL fix, frx05 has been running fine with this kernel with the occasional reboot to winmo (happening to me more than normal now); I had to switch back to winmo while I was at mammoth because I needed something more reliable.

BTW, just got me a new Android toy: the Viewsonic G-tablet (same processor as the Xoom); I got it at www.woot.com for $285! (by way of slickdeals.net). Planning to flash it with VEGAn (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I27zrnBoI14 - check out the quadrant score at the end, I think it's 2422!); this will smoke the Ipad 2 at half the price. Waiting for the HoneyComb port!

YOU SUCK!!!!!!!!! for the last 2 days I've been looking at the gtab just to root....but am also looking at the adam----more ports and more on board mem. $200 more so that's where my problem is. let me know PM how it's going (tether via phone and whatnot) almost have my wife convinced that I NEED one

EDIT: I could get the evo, or the gtab----about the same price. decisions decisions

Hey john, I'll let you know how everything goes; I couldn't pass up on the deal; it's $100 cheaper than normal and the hardware is almost as good as the xoom; it should be delivered next week. Gonna flash it with vegan and use my Tp2 to wifi tether it like you said; I'm glad we're using sprint; I saw the news on ppcgeeks that at&t now knows if you tether your phone. I can't wait for all the tablets to come out so this will hold me over for a year or so. I'll get my fiance an Ipad 2 for her bday in a few months but you won't find ever buying one for myself; of course I'll jailbreak that before I give it to her .

Wow, didn't realize tiad8 was banned very unfortunate there.

good luck, if she's anything like my wife (95 lb 5' nothing Italian) she will kick your ass for touching her stuff....it took me 3 days to convince her that I needed to root and run custom on her EVO. Just watching the vids on YT....may have to "accidentally" pick one up tonight
