It more directly affects coverage area.
It can help with battery life since it makes it easier for the device to find a signal when roaming.
Ah well thank you, I didn't know that :P

Well I'm sure you've all heard by now that Froyo is dropping!
Here's a good article about the features we'll be enjoying.
Now this is posted all over this site but warchild said it was ok to post it again:

That "features" list really doesn't offer all that much, but with apps2sd + flash I guess I can't ask for much more

Those are definitely the biggies. Using the flash with video is a +
Remember the speed improvements and the supposed better battery life aren't listed as "features".
We'll have to get it in our hands to really see what she's all about.

spoke to sprint tier 2 and he said sprint will be "pushing" the update aug 3rd but if we want it ASAP, we can manually install it today after 12pm(central)...

So question is this: My evo is rooted with this rom, I know if I update im going to loose root. do we wait for the rom to be made for us? or is OMJ going to make a rom based on the new updates? sorry for the question im new to android.

I would wait. While the rooted ROMs will be out quickly there's no way to know when the root PROCESS for Froyo will be developed-if ever
You could risk it but I wouldnt. To me it never makes sense to have root then intentionally lose it and HOPE someone finds a way to bring it back.

OMJ has said he will be cooking Froyo when it's fully released with Sense, well that day is here
Just gotta wait for the rooted versions to drop, I posted earlier that I was betting on 3 days tops

What I would do is start over. Restore a ROM before 1.9-I think you said you had others? OR worst case scenario restore the 1.9. Then do a nand backup. You can flash amon RA recovery via ROM Manager (it's at the bottom of the menu-flash alternate recovery) if you are using Clockwork. You could then compare the image sizes and see of ROM Manager makes it that size or not.
Use Titanium backup to save your data and then try restore the data.img from the nand. If it's still too big at least you'll have TiBackup to um....back you up.
Let us know how it goes.
What can cause the data.img file to big that size? I have a lot of apps.. Some of the apps I noticed are over 3 or 4 Mbs large.... I got everything working now but if think the large data.img could be causing problems I'd rather start fresh..

My Nandroid backups are similar in size to the ones that rom manager is making. I have a feeling it's the apps I got installed? Could the large apps make the data.img large?

I never had the battery problems but I was getting a lot of force closed and reboots on my phone with v1.9enamored. I droped it last nite and I'm running a clean v.1.8 rom now. No themes. I flashed the latest netarchy kernel this morning and I'm crossing my fingers.

Now I got to figure out why my data.img is sooooo large. I'm gonna try deleting a few of the game apps that are big and see if that makes a difference.

@richarc-dunno about backup size. After apps the only thing that comes to mind is Messaging. Are you backing up a lot of emails and txt's?

Edit: Do me a favor Bro, xfreak messed up the quoting so now in your last post it looks like I said that about batt life, could you throw a little edit on that? Thanks.
