I was wondering if you can explain this to me.

Why is it, if my phone is in airplane mode, does network signal info still show me a full signal strength. I was trying an array of modems, the one doing this is LP7.

It doesn't to this with any of the other modems I have flashed.... LPQ, LPH, or LPS. With those, if I am in airplane mode, it show I have no reception.

So what I an wondering is should I trust the results for signal strength that LP7 is showing me????

Shotty is it a newer version than LPS?

I was debating that one with ironass. I know there was an LP6 modem a while back but that was xx or xw. I have a feeling it might be newer as the other lp6 was from about 4 months ago so I can't see Vodafone using that in their new ics build.

Having used BULP6 over the weekend, because I am a Vodafone customer on a generic firmware, I have to say that it was not quite as good as LPS for me in terms of signal strength.

Looking back to my screenshots and data from January, when I had the LP6 modem installed, they are identical.

The crunch for me came at my favourite testing ground, the Twilight Zone pub, when, although it connected to the network, it was weaker than the readings that I previously had from LPS.

The signal strength difference is not major but more noticeable in bad signal areas. So, back on LPS... until Shotty pulls his finger out! ;)
