As far as I know, TESTRSTZ does a full reset the whole GSM subsystem. The boot loader always runs after reset, be it caused by TESTRSTZ or by powering on. (That's also why you get those ticking sounds right after powering up if you didn't disable DL_GSM. It's the boot loader, trying to call the mothership.) > That's why the driver transistor is NC in GTA02. Ah, that's a long story ;-) What happened in GTA01 was that at the time of entering PMU.Suspend the GPIOs would become unstable. This would then send enough current into MODEM_RST to make the transistor pull TESTRSTZ, which in turn would reset the modem that we've previously sent to bed by software. The reset would wake the modem and since there was nobody around to tell it otherwise, it would stay up, making full use of its privileged access to the battery. In GTA02, we have the PMU-controlled modem power switch to keep the modem from doing such things. We might also be less susceptible to GPIO instability on MODEM_RST during power down because we've reduced leakage currents into the CPU, which may have played a role in the original problem. - Werner
