Goto the radio thread, download the radio of your choice, and flash the RUU, just as you flash a ROM.

Same process.

I am unlocked. Where is the Radio thread? So all I do is download the Radio of my choice, download RUU, then put both in the same folder and Flash? DO I have to re-flash OMJ's rom after that?

Just follow Tobeychris's short but sweet instructions. Download the radio (I believe it's stickied in the upgrade forum), and flash it just like you did OMJ's custom rom. When I upgraded to the Telus 1.04.05, it did not "hard reset" my device. So you probably won't need to re-flash OMJ's rom. That said, always be prepared to lose data....back-up everything first.

wmdunn, have you seen an increase in reception on the Telus 1.04.05 on Sprint. Thanks

better signal (more bars), less heat coming from the back, better data/voice but all depend on many factors. read the thread to learn more from users comments.
