RSTG is there a difference between "update profle" , "update prl" and running another Sprint carrier cab???
I know this is a Sprint specific rom, your "S" version--but when i flashed yesterday, I specificaly looked at my signal strength. I did notice that it was lower than pre-flash (I was running your 11-15 version with DCD and update profile done) so I ran the DCD cab and update profile on your latest 11-16 "S" rom----maybe the only thing I needed to do was update profile, but there was a noticable difference in signal strength after the DCD cab and update profile....again, this may be me noticing something that isn't happening. I have a range extender 10 feet from where I flash, prior to doing the cab/update profile I was getting 3-4 bars, after the cab/update profile I'm at a full 5 bars??????????????? still could be a placebo effect though

I didn't see any change from just doing an Update PRL with this ROM but installing the dcd radio and then doing an Update PRL seems to have made a huge improvement. At work I'm seeing two bars more signal strength which is where it should have been all along. I'll see tonight if this also solves the problem I was having with my Airave where the phone would show either 5 bars or 0 bars when in front of the Airave.

Try "update profile" not just "update prl"--see if that helps too.

Update profile resets the Vision login with Sprint, update profile updates the PRL. Works out of the box with the "S" version. The carrier cabs as far as I know, while they include a PRL, there shouldn't be too much that improves signal. There is alot of other things going on that I'm not going to go into due to brain-capacity-limitations. Take a look at the provxml files included in the carrrier cab files and you'll see what info it sets. It's christmas at work...

I will be updateing calkulin's kitchen with those new dcd carrier cabs, I thinks I saws enough improvement. But When I get off I'm going to take a few RF measurements...

Hey rstoyguy, you can disregard my noob PM, I solved the problem by reflashing after hard reset. It was probably my own damn fault

This release I replaced the Carrier Cab and am trying out Opera 10. I didn't get a chance to test, I'll let you all be the judge! I'd like to hear some opinions and let me know what you all think!

rstg_Raph_v21869S.MS351.15
WindowsMobile v6.5 21876
(build release post #136 - Updated 11/18/09)
(Calkulin's Visual kitchen - Sprint Carrier Version)

Version MS351.15
- Swapped out Carrier cab to dcd_Sprint_Carrier_20090714...done.
- Added Opera_Mobile_10_WM_beta_1...done.

This an optional but cool update. The jury is out on the carrier thing, but Opera 10 is SMOKIN'! Opera 9.7 is in there as well for you old die'hards. Let me know what you think!

Thanks for the update RSTG--not sure if it's a good thing that you have so much time to keep updating us with new roms----but it is appreciated!!! Your roms do rock.

This will probably be the last update for a while. Pending a new major update. I'll have to focus on christmas now. I think the rom is good, and other than a few touch-ups, it's ready!

Love your roms, big fan. Is wise to up the page pool?

Never mind, you should always look before you leap...

I think last time around I increased it to 24 for the release and it seemed a little zippier. I've benchmarked roms for eon's and didn't see a change, but I'm up for trying something new. I don't keep a rom long enough to know any better, flash mine 2x a day minimum
