Upgraded the radio baseband.

OK stupid question but what is the radio baseband?

Its supposed to improve the data signal, call quality and everything... I haven't noticed a difference.

It seems to have fixed my problems with the compass API that was causing Google Sky Map to work improperly.
Another tip for better cell quality (independent of any change that came with this update) is to change the codec from EVRC to EVRC-B. My wife said my phone no longer sounds like cell phone, it sounds like a good old fashioned copper land line. Ok, fiber.. But, the difference is pretty dramatic.
I was hoping that this update would cause the phone to retain your setting, but unfortunately, the setting appears to get reset back to EVRC on a phone restart.
To get your codec set to EVRC-B:
Go to dialpad, and dial ##PROGRAM <send> (##7764726)
At the "Enter SPC Password" prompt type: 000000 and click "Verify" (6 zero's)
Choose "06 Test Mode"
Press Next
Press Next
In the first option: "Service Option" choose "EVRC-B"
Press Back
Press Home button
You're done!
