I'm running SHR unstable. A number of days ago I decided to try to

Everything *seems* okay, and though I haven't done any formal test of
battery life some anecdotal evidence would seem to indicate that battery
life has gone up significantly.
I turned on DEBUG level logging for ogsmd, and I *do* see the messages
about checking for TI Calypso recamping bug..., but they aren't all
that frequent. Sometime it detects an unexpected recamp in as few as 5
minutes, but it usually seems to be once every 10 to 20 minutes. In
total the phone recamped 19 times in 9998 seconds, which is very roughly
once every 9 minutes on average.
So my question is whether some recamping is normal, or if it should
really not happen at all when a phone is stationary? If some is normal,
what might be considered an acceptable rate, without much risk of
randomly loosing calls or missing SMS?
Recamping is only normal for buggy hardware ;-) It sounds like you have the
intermittent recamping I often experience, which is too slow to trigger the
automatic detection. Note that it is temperature sensitive, so if it gets
warmer you will probably see the rate increase. What's acceptable is up to
you, and how your network responds to it. It seems to cause problems for me
with O2 but not with t-mobile or orange in the uk, but I may just have been
lucky with them and unlucky with o2.
