I got it in .405 and I like this os..... Just seems sluggish sometimes but all in all it's pretty stable

oh scratch, the biggest difference i've ever had in an upgrade is that I got the ability to type in Japanese finally with .423, and thankfully this .442 from HK vodafone still has it.

On T-Mobile coming from .423. The ONLY difference I see is that the audipostcard icon shows properly, rather than a generic icon like I had on some themes before. Other than that, I have seen nothing different at all.

install the build of this OS from Vodafone SmarTone, i think it's on the 2nd or 3rd page. It's marked as "jEastAsia" and that "j" indicates that romaji input works. I also have a link to a version of .423 jEastAsia if you would rather use that, but either way you will have to reinstall the OS.

First of all...this is not a leak, it's an OFFICIAL carrier update. If you're having issues and/or giving yourself grief, just install your last os and don't worry about it Not saying this is the case for you, but quite a few users should browse the forums on how to download operating systems properly before they get themselves in too deep

So I DL'd it because unlike most, my battery seems to be draining much quicker on .423 than it did on .330 or .351.

I'm not really thrilled. I can't really tell what's different at the moment, other than the fact that after 2 battery pulls everything seems quite choppy. :-/

I might give it a little longer to see if that improves or what...

In most cases you're probably correct.... except the boot time.... 2.5 vs. 4 minutes is very noticeable.

So far no issues. Seems pretty stable and I've been using it for about 5 hours.

well i'm more referring to anything after boot, like "oh the browser is faster" or ___ is more responsive, etc.

Deleted the Vendor file, but it is not showing up in DM or AppLoader... This is annoying
