2.16 rom with radio 1.40

[rijc99]

I ran my phone with ROM 2.16 and Radio 1.40. Everything was ok for a while but all of the sudden, my phone locked up on me today.

Going back to ROM 2.09. I missed a few important calls today and pissed off a few important people. (My wife included).

Oh well, I guess I'll wait until next year for the fix.

I'm trying to download titan_1.40_radio from the FTP but it is not letting me????

For what it's worth, 2.16/1.40 still working fine -- no issues to report after about 3 days with it... Just returned home from a 2-day trip that included considerable roaming and repeated switches to/from evdo and 1x with good in poor signal strength areas...

I have tried this with both the 1.40 radio and the 1.32 radio and it seems to resolve any lockup issues. I have run both setups for several days with no issues.

I run mNotes and voice command primarily.

Thanks for your efforts ImCokeMaN.

2.16 & 1.40 radio did not work out for me,BT still connects & disconnects like crazy on me.I went back to 2.09 & 1.40,that seems the best combiantion for me thus far,no disconnect on BT and no choppy sound on the other end when i use BT to make calls.

My observation re: sprint 2.16 and radio 1.4 -

My bluetooth keeps shutting off.. so it realy sucks in that aspect..

BUT if I just pretend like the phone doesn't have bluetooth and leave it off, my battery life is fantastic! Much better then 2.09's ever was.. (all day usage, down to ~70-80%??? I'd normally be down to 10-20% after a full day..)

I don't use bluetooth on my Mogul, though I used it quite a bit with my old Nokia... So, my reports regarding 2.16/1.40 do not take into account bluetooth at all... Having said that, 2.16/1.40 seems pretty solid otherwise and I agree that the battery life has vastly improved over the previous ROM... I'm satisfied with my Mogul in this state, at least until a "rev. a update" comes out...

I too noticed the battery life is pretty amazing in 2.16... I have used 2.08 2.09 and 2.14 alltel rom and they were all pretty equivilent but 2.16 was amazing on battery usage - literally the same 70-80 instead of 10-20.... I wonder why...

[diomark]

My guess would be - they're shutting off the dpad when you're not using it (hince the dpad doesn't wakeup bug w/ the 1.47 radio..)

report from using 2.16 rom with 1.40 radio (a week of usage):

I don't use bluetooth, so can't comment on that..no lock ups at all..which means i can still play with my phone on the subway

and the alarm function works..which is why I upgraded to 2.16 in the first place
