If an optimized radio driver can reduce power consumption, it could solve this issue. That would be a great win-win situation.

Well, my 2nd TP gets really hot with limited use, for example watching movies with Divx, watching sprint tv, surfing the net...so does changing the radio reduce the amount of heat? Will changing the radio damage your phone in any way? Or reduce call quality..stuff like that...sorry of they are dumb questions.

switching radios won't damage your phone. try flashing the telus radio as i've heard it gets great reception and doesn't overheat.

The reason foil has a shiny side is because the manufacturing process requires 2 sheets of aluminum on top of each other in order to properly roll and flatten to the thinness desired.

I updated the original thread to include a link to the list of recent radios. Hopefully this helps with battery life problems.

I'm guessing that using the Telus radio is the most preferred radio for better battery life? Anyone know any better?
