Thread: BBCrackmans V5 POLL.....132 vs 141 Radio Code!

I have been running the .141 V5 and none of my four really like it. Some random freezes/reboots and poor battery. Wife is ready to shoot me.:dunno:

Ok after using both 132 and 141 I believe 132 to be the best! Im going to try using the 113 Radio Code as I believe it to be better than 132 and see how it goes. Will keep you all posted.

I have tried both and I have found that .132 works best for me. .141 I would switch from 1xEV to just 1X.

109 was good but I think 113 was just as good! Those two I really like. 132 isnt bad but over 141.....oh thats like night and day!

Sorry I am going to have to disagree with you guys. I'm still rockin .65 and loving it. The constant reboots, keyboard lag you just can't be it.

wasn't as impressed with the .132 v5 as I was with 4.5, grabbing 5.1 w/ 141, will let you know

I tried 141 and 132 v5.1 and noticed that 132 drained my battery faster. I switched to 141 and my battery seems better. Might try and load 132 device software and then use the 141 hybrid. Has anyone tried this or do we all use the same os as hybrid?

You can use whatever OS you want over the hybrid except .114 and .122 as those don't seem to jive well with the hybrids.

Thanks Jlevy. Have you or anyone else mixed it up with the a diferent os verses a hybrid? What results have you had?

I loaded the 132 as my base OS and then loaded the v5.1. I noticed I didn't have the best signal when making calls and the battery life was OK. I decided to load the 109 radio code and I must say that it works great. I just drove from VA to NJ, about 350 miles. The trip was through mountains and I had signal the whole way. The next amazing thing is that I talked on my phone for 3 hours total on one charge and still have 40% battery life at the end of the day. I would have to say 109 is the way to go with the 132 base and v5.1.

Thanks BBC

.132 is it for me

.141 was losing my data and connectivity...btw it's a common issue...and also one of the reasons .141 failed vzw testing.

Olta so you are just running the leaked version of .132 and liking it?

No...I am running BBCrackman's v5 with .132 base (.132 radio as well)....I am surprised that I haven't touched my phone's OS ever since I loaded BB's v5, cause it just runs so well

I've been using .109 with 132 5.1 for a few days now and just had to do my first reset after almost three days of uptime due to 13mb of free memory. I'm not sure what's leaking it, but I am glad that it isn't leaking at a very fast pace. I may try 141 5.1, but 132's radio was definitely destroying my battery life.
