radio update

[jimeller]

I keep reading comments about people updating this to different versions or something. My question is, what is it? And is it included in modacos release??

 

[ripkord]

No its not included.

Its either firmware or software to update the broadcast chipset from what I can see. I updated to the latest version (stickied on modaco) the same way I flashed the rom (renaming the zip file to update.zip and installing at boot).

So far I have noticed battery life has been better and signal strength has improved.

I have just installed the latest radio update, and I agree that the signal appears to be better. I'm on a constant 4 bars whereas I was on 2-3 before. I haven't left this room since doing it, so I will be able to give a better assessment tomorrow. SO far so good though.

Is there a guide on this site or any other for everything? Rooting, Custom ROM and radio? Total noob here, for now...

Search for the noob and custom ROM thread probably on page 2 of this forum. Read it and all the replies. It helped me no end.

So you would say it is worth it?

Yes, absolutely!

Definitely. I'm total noob too and I found it easy. Just do exactly what it says on the tin.
