Disclaimer (lol): I'm not responsible for the bricking of your phone, but honestly, the radio flash is even easier than the rom flash. You don't even have to copy the RUU_Signed.nbh over.
I thought I read in another thread that the new Sprint radio wasn't very good. I was just about to try the Telus radio - I get poor reception where I live - based on your urging. Now I am not sure if I should go Telus or Sprint v1.11.

from what i read...and my own experience sprint v1.11 is better than the telus release....the sprint radio before v1.1 wasnt that good though...but i would recommend v1.11 works good and not too much battery drain

I urge the Telus radio, but no the new Sprint radio is very good. There was a poll a while back asking people which radio they used. At first, the Telus radio was the clear winner by a large margin, but after a couple of days of voting, the new sprint 1.11 was actually the winner by a small margin. I reasoned this to most people here a sprint customers and they were too afraid to switch carrier names (although I've explained that doesn't matter).

I hate this sh'tty answer, but you just gotta see what works for you. For some the Sprint radio is better, others, the Telus is better. I can't really explain this, maybe different build dates do better with one, maybe some are just subjective (like sprint customer just wanting the sprint named radio to do better), I don't know. Like I said, I hate the "try it out and see for yourself" answer, I'd rather it be definitive (like which is the best rom? KKs), but it's not. Read through the Radio thread, see what people are saying. Honestly, I don't think you can go wrong with either.

Or just flash to one and don't try the other. Either is far better than the stock sprint 1.03.
