Hello all,

First and foremost, I am somewhat new to this rom/flashing business, so please go easy on me. I have tried searching this one time and time again but to no avail, so I'm posting here and looking for a quick answer if feasible. I'm currently sporting the Tmobile Mytouch 3g (32b board).

1) I have read time and time again that we are supposed to upgrade our SPL and Radio to suit certain roms. However, I wanted to know why is that?

the SPL I get, for the most part, but what exactly does the radio control? I was successfully able, using the 1 click root method, to root my phone (32B magic which has a radio = 2.22.19.261 and HBOOT = 1.33.0006). That last bit is the dreaded "Perfect SPL" which should not be able to work but I have been able to install every rom thus far under the sun. However, I cannot tell if not having the latest and greatest radio/spl has effected my rom performance in any way?

Which leads me to my next question...

2) If I upgrade my SPL and Radio to custom one, or development one, then how do I revert it back to the SPL and Radio that originally came with my phone? (i.e. nandroid backup?)

Thank you. Hopefully your answers to these questions will help not just this newb, but many newbs to follow. :D
