Touch Pro CDMA Radio Review Thread

[pir8skin]

I decided to make this thread because it was really hard trying to read the original and get an idea of what works well and what doesn't.

Here's what I would like to know, and please keep it in this format.

1. What Radio are you currently using?

2. List the pro's & con's of the radio's that you have used.

telus touch pro radio here. dont have any problems whatsoever. my battery life is amazing. i took my phone off the charger 24 hours ago and i still have 70 percent battery left. although if i switch to a rom other than juggalos then my battery dies in a day. dont know what it is about his rom, but i will never stray again lol.

Another Telus radio user here. No problems with text messages and battery life seems to have improved. Although I loaded a custom ROM at the same time as switching radios.

What are these "enhanced text messaging features" that you speak of.

Are all of these safe to use on Verizon? Any Verizon users with any input?

Also, my battery life is horrible. Would changing to one of the sprint radio help?

I use the Sprint 1.11 Radio and I think it works great..but yes you can use any of these.

I'm using Sprint 1.110f. I am currently using Juggalo's rom, it's very sufficient. I would highly recommend his rom, and, the 1.110 radio. I get pretty good battery life out my touch pro

I switched from Sprint 1.03 shipped to Telus 1.04 and I am amazed that my phone does not overheat as before even when using wifirouter. My TP also seems a little snappier although that may be a placebo effect.

I have the vzw and use the Telus radio. My phone is much cooler than the stock rom and my signal improved in my area by about 2 bars. I think my battery improved but that is possibly more related to the specific rom I am using. My only con is that I have never gotten the initial GPS lock as fast as some (about 1 minute usually for me) but after the initial lock following a soft reset I get a solid lock in about 5 seconds until I soft reset again.
