Hi,

I am on 132 so I do not know if this applies to 148, I plan on trying this coming weekend. But I have HAD the same problem with EDGE since I moved from .75. It seems the radio files above .90 cannot hand a TCP connection on an EDGE network. They CAN handle BIS or BES, just not TCP. I WAS using the.90 radio file up to release .132, but when I hit .132 my crashes increased exponentially.

You can use a .132 radio file AS LONG as you follow what I layed out in the two referenced posts. Your EDGE connection will stay constant. I have strong feeling this will be the same with .148. I really do not want to go back to .90. .90 is not JUST the radio, but the platform and it does many other functions which really always made my Storm unreliable. On .132 radio my Storm is what I always thought it should be and it keeps its EDGE, as long as I do not try a TCP connection. I am hoping that .148 will be even better.

So read the two posts and give it a try. It will limit what apps you can use, but I personally use:
Email - all accounts and PINing. I even sent and received a 2MB file.
Text messaging
BB Browser and BOLT brower
Viigo
Facebook
podtrapper
Poynt
Vlingo
WeatherBug
WeatherEyeTouch
Shazam
Google Maps
BlackBerry Maps
Storm Forums app
App World

Without any issues at all.

I have been running like this for weeks now. I think I have lost my EDGE connection once in that time. And I was able to recover in minutes by just stopping the network and starting it again. That is one loss in like 4 weeks.

Thanks this worked perfectly! I really got sick of the constant auto reboots on .90. Not to mention the media card insert errors.
