Always looking for a better radio for Verizon. Trying to get rid of the weak signal breakup "gurgling" that I get a lot (with many phones.)
Went from 3.42.30 to 3.42.50 back to 3.42.30. It seemed a bit better.
If this seems worth hanging on to, I will post back.

Edit: Well, I am still using it, but hard to say if it is really much better.

VZW Radio 3.37.75 and PRI 2.03_002 Gives Best GPS to VZW Users!
 
Okay.. I guess I will be the first one to report this..


10 minutes ago.. i had radio 3.42.50 installed with PRi 2.03_002.. PPCkitchen build 20273..

*Tomtom 7 GPS had 2 bars.. and was searching for about 45 seconds before picking up any satelite and getting a lock.. Keep in mind.. GPS reception inside my home is extremely bad regardless of Radio version .30, .40 or .50.. I normally get lock within 5 seconds on the freeway, but thats a whole different scenario..

I've just flashed the VZW Radio 3.37.. still with PRI 2.03_002.. PPCkitchen build 20273..

Tomtom GPS has 4 satelite on a cold start.. locks in about 5 seconds and now has 8 bars when locked..
this is a significant change for the better..

both test were made sitting here on my couch..

so i guess my conclusion is.. the new VZW Radio works best with this PRI 2.03_002..

Finally us VZW users get a break....:mrgreen:

i've only ever flashed a radio rom once so pardon me if this is noobish. I'm running radio 3.35 and pri 1.35_002. can i flash just the radio without having to flash the rom again? and part 2 of super noob sounding question, does the pri 2.03_002 come with the 3.37.75 rom? again sounds noobish to me and yes, i'm going searchin just hoping someone can answer before i spend all day on the computer again, and don't get anything done! lol.

you can flash the radio(comes with pri) via micro sd card without having to flash the entire rom make sure your micro sd card is formatted with a fat32 file system first...then copy the radio to the card...enter bootloader (power + camera + soft reset = bootloader) then follow the onscreen prompt.

How did you upgrade the PRI to 2.03_002? Did you go through all the hoops with the official upgrade, or has the PRI been funneled off on its own now too? I am running 1.35_002.

Thanks,
Steve

thanx juggs, that was damn quick. i read through 2 threads! lol. I generally flash via usb, due to no sd reader for this computer. is that gonna make a difference?

it makes a world of difference...usb requires an entire flash of the phone and can cause data loss...with flashing from the card...there is no risk
