Tomorrow after one day at work i will report if there are problems.

As System i have CM-7.0-RC4 (No GPS-Problem with this radio version!)

Will this work on non-Bell Legend? I got Vodafone Legend.

Trying it for yourself and reporting your findings here would be really cool...

Ah actually tried but its not using edify so can't install with CWM3 and I can't seem to get the device working with fastboot either. If someone posts an edify version, I'll test.

There's a trick you can try. Get old fake-flash CWM, name it let say update-old.zip and put it onto your SD card. Boot into new CWM and install that update-old.zip you previously put on SD card. Old CWM should reload instantly. It won't erase or replace anything on your system, just in RAM.

i used this method for radio upgrading... and also some other stuff that their installation are aborted in cwm3

I've tried this radio on Legend (the usual fastboot flash radio procedure) and got quite high battery usage in standby during few days, so I decided to downgrade it back to 7.13.35.05.

Flashed to Vodafone Legend, seems to work fine so far.

Runs flawlessly on Vodafone Legend (CM7).

Now after one week of usage i can say the following:

- Battery livetime was increased (recorded with systempanel)
- GPS exactness seams to be improved (also the lock speed)
- GSM signal strengh is better - now i can allso recive calls when i'm in my basement ...

I havn't found anything that didn't work after the update.
So i'm happy with the new radio version

This new radio fixed my gps issues with CM7 RC4. Thanks!

Can I update via Rom Manager as a full rom? Thanks.

Yes, this is the way it should be flashed. But bear in mind that this is NOT a full ROM. You'll still have your current ROM, just in About Phone you'll see a new radio version

I have a Bell Legend upgrading from the Froyo WWE radio and I've noticed that after my 3rd reboot, the GPS still doesn't lock on. Haven't had GSM testing yet, I'm in the mountains and WiFi seems to be very improved.

EDIT: Well, it found 1 satellite in view. Usually it would lock on in 5 seconds, getting like 10 (around) satellites. Then the single one it found went out of view. This radio is a joke.

EDIT2: HOLY CRAP, JUST AS I WAS ABOUT TO RESTORE THE NANDROID, IT FOUND TWO (although it took about 5 minutes). OMFG A THIRD ONE.

HOLY CRAP IT LOCKED ON! That took a damn long time though, and I'm indoors now. Why couldn't it find some when I was driving? This is still a joke. I'll nandroid it tonight.

EDIT3: Okay, maybe I'm starting to think the fails I had, I had because the GPS was initializing or something, and I didn't give it enough time to breathe before closing GPS Test and resetting it, etc. Maybe I'll keep this another day to see further results, the GPS is starting to lock-on instantly now, which is nice. Can't comment on GSM though.

EDIT4: Aaaaaaaaand we're back to its old intermittent habits. I can't believe this. This is bullsh*t.

After using it for about 2 weeks, I think this does help with receiving calls in low signal area. It also helps with the battery life strangely.
