[Jan 15th New Sprint Radio V1.11.00F] Official CDMA Diamond Radio Thread

[kevank]

I have been on the Verizon radio for about 2 hours and things are good. I reception at my desk and that is unheard of! Battery life is clearly better. I will try to get some metrics together soon.

[blazin-asian]

man, anything will probably be better then the current battery life. that is by far my biggest complaint about this phone.

i'll be doing this tonight since Sprint is sending me a replacement anyways because of one of my defective d-pad (right does not work at all)

Ok - So, I'm truely new to all this crap.

Roms, Radios.....ahhh!

I understand how to upgrade ROM and Radios........ i've read this thread and heard a lot of people talking about backing up your MIP?

Juggalo, you said a few things in post 1 about it, but it might as well have been in Chinese....... Any help with making me understand this would be greatly appreciated.


OH - and....will upgrading the Radio to the Verizon one change the ROM too?...or, is does flashing one or the other have nothing to do with eachother?

Thanks!

Mip settings can be obtained via epst (##778 ) then choose view then choose menu > MIP Default Profile

write them down just o be safe.

flashing the radio will not affect your rom (flash to another rom) BUT it will do a hard reset so back up your stuff first.

omg full bars at my house??????????? u rock juggalo!!!!!! \m/

[nitroshot]

This radio is so much better then sprint's its ridiculous. I mean you don't even have to run benchmarks, you can tell by how less hot it feels after using EVDO for a while. Less heat = less drain and weak/tear on the battery. Finally the battery problem may be fixed for sprint phones.
Thanks for the radio leak!

im glad you guys are enjoying this radio as much as i am. it was a god send after making the MISTAKE of flashing sprints radio.

Awesome - thank you.

When I do the ##778# - then VIEW - I get this "Display" page.

The bottom menu says "VIEW INFO, or CANCEL"

View Info options are: DISPLAY, NAM SETTINGS, CDMA SETTINGS, HOME SID/HOME NID, MODEM SETTINGS, PRL, DATA PARAMETERS, PHONE DIRECTORY, NV with NAM01, NAM Settings-NAM01, HSDNID_NAM01..

nothing about MIP Default Profile

k same proses but choose edit not view. MIP Default Profile will be there then. you will need your SPC to get into the edit menu. i forgot view didn't have the option

[SmknJoe]

Awesome - got it.

how easy is it to imput this data back in if it ends up getting erased? Is it just the same process "##778#, edit, then "edit" each value back into the item listed?
