so far havent seen anyone test the sprint Pro one in the first post

I am using it now. 1.00.04f So far so good but no difference with signal strength for me. In fact I think my original one sprint stock radio did better as well as the verizon radio. Oh well, I hope we get the sprint stock radio soon since it seems to be the most updated.

well i meant tested it as in how Jugs did with the battery drain, data speeds, and signal strength numbers to compare to the 2 others we have

I decided to try this.

I installed a rogue program that ate my battery and heated the phone up something terrible and the battery drained although it was plugged into my notebook "charging" o:
After stopping that I was streaming Sirius by bluetooth and again the phone got pretty hot.

I was hoping this would be magic fix but it wasn't ):

I went from the 1.00.00F Sprint to the 1.03.03V Verizon radio and it's just as hot )': And the battery is still draining.

I'll see how it behaves tomorrow during work hours.
Dern. I wish I had read a couple more pages before flashing.
It's charging at 440mA and Draining at 560mA.

well it seems pretty clear that this thread died down a good bit. I am sticking with the stock radio for now as I have not seen any improvements with the others. Granted I used both for short time period but my benchmark was to see if I could get a better signal in my house which didnt happen. Thanks again for the other radios provided!

Still waiting for the Touch Pro radio to be available for flashing.

did you unlock your device? you'll need a touchpro RUU or you can flash via SD Card (after you unlock)

): I didn't see a noticeable difference in battery life. I was down to 20% by 3pm.
Not sure on the reception either. No more bars.
Heat though does seem a touch better. It's warm, but a warm I can live with.

Not sure how you guys are measuring idle current. When I first turn on the screen it shows about 87mA before going to 166mA. The latter seems to be the norm.

Hmm I just realized from playing Kevtris that the right touch pad button on my Diamond is kinda off.. I need to reflash to the stock radio, does anyone know where I could find a copy of it? I am running the VZW one right now and dont think Telus would be too understanding about that.

jgillard · #**469** (**permalink**) 11-04-2008, 10:04 AM

there is currently no stock telus radio available

Doh, looks like I will have to hold on to it a little longer then.. its not a real problem since I barely use the D-pad anyways..
