Yes, I have been using Trinity for years with EDGE connecition only, it's kind of a waste. :-)
I have switched to 3.5G service recently, and just found a very big issue with the battery consumption.
It appears that when I am connected to Live Messenger and leave it on for several hours, it would drop for as much as 10% of battery every hour. This case I don't really use MSN much at all and just leave it on idle.
I had the exact condition when using EDGE/GPRS connection whereas the battery consumption is much lower, so I am wondering if it's my radio ROM or all 3G connections take more power?
One special issue I had is, even when MSN connected idle with 3G, the battery is fairly warm (notable even from the housing). It only happened when I use wi-fi for watching mobile YouTube for 10 minutes or more.
I am using some Taiwanese cooked ROM (build 20273.6.16) with radio 1.46.00.11. Do you think it would resolve the problem by flashing a new radio ROM?
Thanks guys...
