Radio upgrade to 2.13

[miguelfp1]

after the upgrade, my phone does have a stronger signal, BUT only connects to the Internet at 1X, is it only me having a problem with no EV-DO? I'm using a ROM created with DogGuy's kitchen and 60611 PRL, if that matters.

I'm doing it now. I can confirm....it does say updating to 1.12. Weird....

FYI - I'm doing this with the stock Sprint 2.17 ROM

Well, I just completed it and did some testing, including a "keynote", and there is no performance difference. Same qualtiy calls, same wifi, but most disappointingly, same EVDO speed. Not Rev.A....

this was from xda i am noticing the same speed increase

"Phone- Sound is excellent. Fixes problem of not being able to answer phone after 1.40 radio install.

Bluetooth- works fine.

Wifi- works fine, although the hard button on the side of the device no longer works. Connect/disconnect through comm manager is fine. May try another hard reset to see if this is fixable. A small sacrifice vs. the increase in EVDO speed.

Evdo speed 868kbps. This is a 33% increase over prior. Getting an extra bar in most locations."

no need to do rename the file, and when upgrading it will reset your device, you will loose everything so backup everything that you want to keep.

Edit: working now, just downloaded the wrong ROM.

I was actually thinking that, can someone try it.

I would give it a shot if it didn't hard reset my phone.


Sure I can use a backup program but I don't like doing that...
