As far as the dropping from EV to 1x, right around when the previous rom came out I know Bell was having tower issues, I think it was just coincidental that the other rom came out around the same time. Not sure about dropped calls though, I haven't noticed anything myself.

they removed 666... as some BM phones were reportedly ooozing blood from the microsd and stylus slot... i think its been patched though, so no worries

3.09.666.1 TV&Radio still not fixed? maybe Bell will leak a new version in future

I don't think it's broken, it just is not available yet. If you have a fun bundle with the sirius radio included, we with WM devices, can't access it yet. I think it is going to be for "TV Clips" and "Sirius radio" (the 20 pre selected chanels)

this might be a stupid question but whats with the other update on that page?

[HTCBellUser]

The other ROM update was an really early fix for bluetooth issue. Don't see why they just don't remove it. Maybe it's on there for folks that don't want the GPS, Win6.1, etc. features.

I also noticed with this ROM upgrade that the Rev.A isn't enabled for me yet (via the ##778# viewing option).

viewing through ##778# shows only a #777 for me as well....was hoping for Rev a this time around more than the GPS.....ah well.

I say don't upgrade..I upgraded and now i'm getting constant dropped calls, no signal

[QkSi1ver]

Since we're still not sure we're on Rev A yet .. .i've been taking benchmark speedtest at various places i've been...
from Montreal to the Laurentians Up to Saint Agathe des Monts... and the best I can get was 850 kbps on 4 signal bars... I couldnt get a 4 signal in Montreal for some reason... may be i was far from the towers but since I'm downtown, I was expecting the signal to be strong...

If i was getting a constant 850 i would be happy but at 400 sometimes down to 100... this makes the browsing speed unacceptable... I just hope this ISNT the rev A speed we are all paying... may be a better ROM will make the speed more like rev A standard speed!

Again, I've never used any custom roms... i've only flashed once to the 3.08 BELL rom once! I'm not even gonna bother with 3.09 unless someone tells me that there is a speed improvement...

I wonder how those BELL users who used CUSTOM ROMS are getting as speed... Is it a fact that using a CUSTOM rom like NFSFAN will get the speed improvement ? If not I'm not gonna bother voiding the warranty!

let me know
