New Radio Is Out.

So no one here has installed it yet? Got to SBF back to froyo so I haven't jumped in yet. Waiting for more reviews or another path. Seems like an official update won't be far off either

I haven't done it yet either. I was surprised to see 10 page threads about a .602 update elsewhere, yet not a peep about it here. I was beginning to think there wouldn't be an official update to take care of issues caused by the last one, so I finally bit the bullet and flashed ZombeStomped 1.7 last weekend. What I've read about the new radio update sounds nice, but I'm not sure if I'm willing to SBF back to Froyo to load it.

I'm running miui 1.8.12 + 1.8.12 status bar/extended settings mod + .13p radio
and it's running great. 13p has so far been problem free. battery life is pretty good
I got about 10 hours out of it today with heavy use. you could easily get 20+ hours with light/moderate usage.

Because the old one was so no bueno! Ha ha, I kidding.......

Can you install the 0.13p radio as a standalone update? I know the TBH will update to .602 GB from any build/ROM, but the radio will stay at .12p. Would it be possible to upgrade to .602 with the TBH app and then just upgrade the radio?

you can on a 2nd init rom like miui or cm7
idk about from a .596 rom

Two people have DXs at work one with new radio one with old radio and checking the 3g signal/dBm strenght between them can't see any difference between them at all. So I opted not to try new radio on mine.

I'm thinking of just updating with the TBH app to keep root. I have no signal issues with the current radio.

I drop 3G every couple of days so I grabbed the update last night. A bit of a pain going back to .340 to keep root, but not the end of the world.

Some have reported better battery and reception.

If I didn't have to wipe the phone, I wouldn't mind. I just don't want to set everything up again. I've never had any success getting Titanium Backup to work and I don't know if I trust MyBackUp Root yet.
