Hi Andy:

Thanks for your finding.
In GTA01, TX_MODEM and console_TX use the same UART port(S3C2410). 
Therefore, R1519 use to reduce noise on console. 
Now, I will remove R1519 in GTA02 because it's unused. 
I will remove it to test the 2V on GSM VBAT. 

 Best Wishes 
        Allen Chang

Hi Allen -

In my travels trying to understand another problem I came across R1519
on the CPU schematic -- it pulls TX_MODEM up by 10K to 3.3V.

Do we really need this?  We can save <=330uA if the GSM stuff is powered
down by removing it.  Hey it sounds like nothing but it is up to 6% of
that 5mA suspend current.

Plus it can be source of the 2V on GSM Vdd you were trying to track down?
