[AUG 4] *12 Radios Available* Updated Touch Pro CDMA Radio Archive Thread

[swampthing]

virtually no difference for me between the uscellular radio that shipped with my phone and the telus. Going to try the verizon one next but will probably just end up back on the us cellular. Wish there was a way to improve reception as i'm in NE iowa and most of hte area is rural.


That said, is there a problem with the uscellular radio link or is it just something with being a new member? I can download every other radio in this list except the uscellular one. I get an error message about editing someones post or my account not being active.

I've always liked the US Cellular radio personally. It seems to be the most adept at getting a satellite lock quickly and I cannot tell the difference between the Telus radio on heat or signal.

You're in Iowa, so I'd try out the new Alltel or maybe Verizon radio, since Alltel has a large rural subscriber base. Verizon might fare pretty well also, because they have to tune their radios for a more diverse infrastructure with tower distances being more inconsistent than Sprint or Telus because they pieced their network together as well as absorbing Alltel's network. Sprint's network has always been Sprint owned and when they built it, they built it all out with one unified plan. Same with Telus.

Alltell has absolutely horrid service here in iowa, at least the part i live in. I am actually a US Cellular Agent. I have alltell customers come in my store regularly that have absolutely no service whereas most us cellular phones are running almost full strength. That's really the only thing that ticks me off about this touch pro is it's poor service, otherwise i love the phone.

Is there another link i can find that us cellular radio at since i can't download it ifrom here? i'd like to try default again.

Here's a link to download the USCC radio, since the link is broken in post 1. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/attachment...0&d=1239089642
