yeaterday when I tried to use my GPS, I found that it wasn't completely accurate. It was off by a couple blocks or showed me driving thru buildings...I upgraded to the VZ radio and also changed my Polling settings to 300. Anyone else??

ok, so i was about to flash to verizon, but now that i'm hearing about gps glitches... i'm gonna wait a few days for you guys to sort it out and figure out what's going on before i do anything because i need the gps for work, which is one of the main reasons why i bought this phone to begin with lol

yeah...i wouldn't be a good one to make an example of though. The only reason i use my GPS is to find new bars and liquor stores.

Couldn't wait - had to try the updated radio! Flashed the verizon radio rom onto my Telus Diamond. Hoping call quality/reliability improves slightly. Nice if it did although I have to be realistic that no software will fix a patchy network.

Mine did too. Gps also works.

Wasn't worried that it was the ROM - you guys do such GREAT work

. Patiently (not) waiting for Juicy 2.6.

I upgraded to the Verizon radio from Sprint, and I noticed data is SLIGHTLY slower. Probably less than half a second difference, but it's noticable to me because the way I use it has me loading a bunch of small webpages (a new page every 2-3 seconds).

It generates a lot less heat and the battery life seems a lot better so far though. I think I'll keep it even if the data is slightly slower.

i did the flash and all is good, but when it hard reset, it didn't have a data connection... i'm in the process of restoring from my backup, but how do i fix this?
