Getting a 9930 tomorrow..What should I change.

**Thesmithsinde** · 03-25-2012, 06:51 PM

Is there anything I should update , delete or change out of the box?On verizon.

I have been using a 9650 for the past 2 years.

Thank you.

Personally I'd leave it how it is for a week or two so when you do come to update etc you'll see for your self the improvements.

If you jump straight into the latest OS then from the get go that'll just be the norm.

I'm sure some here may have different views.

You're gonna really like ya Bold btw

I would download the latest 7.1 with battery saving mode and dnla, also delete all languages you don't need gives you more application storage. You are in for a treat best phone I ever touched.

Newer 7.1's have battery saving mode. Not all have them. I believe its after 7.1.0.200's

Agreed. This is one heck of a phone. You are going to love it. I was not aware of extra language deletion. I will have to do this when my 9930 arrives. Thanks!

Update ue os to os 7.1. 0.284 tmobile stable os so far from my side..

**Mystic205** · 03-26-2012, 09:50 AM

dont be scared..

RIM has certainly polished the entire process... the 9930 is the best BB by a long stretch, and lupgrading from the 9650 was the best thing i ever did..

+1 for updating to latest carrier version of s/w.. dnla server is worth it alone

You should update to the 9930 7.1.0.267 right away and shrink the garbage out asap (Why waste the time in waiting???". This is a VG build and has the "battery saving mode" option but it just lowers the obvious battery sucking settings when it's set on. I would also invest in a GENUINE extra JM-1 1230mAh battery and you will last all day and more with no battery issues. Don't get sucked in to buying those crappy gold "extra mAh batteries", TOTAL rip off. Just my opinion, but not to sound cocky at all, I think it's an educated one...
