Next leak (or official)?
How long does it usually take for the next leak, or an official version to come out? Some of the bugs are ruining 6.0 for me, but I don't want to jump ship just yet.

Should come out in a week or 2 for another leak. They need feedback on what is happening.

1. My battery life was great the first day, then terrible the next. With light use, and being off the charger for 5 hours, it's around 50%. This is with Wifi off, and only ColorID open + the default 5.

3. When you go into text messages, the cursor is always near the top/halfway through the conversation for some reason and you have to scroll down.
I can deal with 2 and 3, but the bad battery life is really killing it for me, although it's not really a "bug". - 09-21-2010, 12:38 PM #5
My main issue is the radios, in particular, the wifi and the cell are not optimized to work well together, and to hand off or whatever, this seems to effect streaming apps that need to check permissions, and connections to the network. For example while connected to wifi I can not connect to NFL Mobile because it does not know I am connected to Verizon, the wifi seems to override and blockout the verizon connection, and I don't seem to get registered on Verizon, just on RIM. HOWEVER as soon as I disable wifi, BAM, NFL App works. I really don't know enough, BUT I suspect it has something to do with the service books, and Verizon (or in some of your cases Sprint) needing to rewrite them. RIM probably need to do some work on the code as well, which they probably HAVE done, I'm sure they are ahead of what has leaked.

@PK - I read that some people were having some problems that were present when wifi was enabled but went away when connected to verizon. Only problem I have had was with the browser and using OS5 service books fixed that. I have used VZNav on and off wifi. Did you use Shrink-A-OS or Apploader? Seemed like a lot of people that had issues used shrink though after 50 pages of posts the stories kind of blend together =p
@lol -I haven't noticed a difference in battery useage at all... I forgot to charge it last night and still had a decent charge this morning. I use it constantly so I was suprised it still had 70% left - 09-21-2010, 02:21 PM #7 Yes I think I need the service books fix, but to do it I got to downgrade to 5.0 and go back up, but that will be tonight's adventure I guess! :P My only hesitation is that everything is working pretty good with a few minor exceptions, so I hate to mess with it, and chance ruining what I DO have working. Plus again having to enter all my app codes! Originally Posted by somachu

What apps (if any) are you running on background besides the default 5? I only have 1 extra and my battery life is terrible, even with Wifi off. Originally Posted by gingertonic

You just need to do it before the restore.
