Is this correct. I did not know 342 was available for 9930 (only leaked 340 or 342 for 9900).

It's legit. Just downloaded and installed it on my VZW 9930.

wow, 342 never leaked for the 9930

**dustanh** · 04-16-2012, 01:03 PM

Downloaded... just waiting for more reviews.

**CoreyGmaN** · 04-16-2012, 01:40 PM

Downloading also...

**dogidog** · 04-16-2012, 01:43 PM

It's an english only build, is there a way to add french ?

**miguel11691** · 04-16-2012, 02:25 PM

Waiting to hear everyones feed back on it... Right now I'm running .167

**Jandrsn36** · 04-16-2012, 02:43 PM

I've loaded this about an hour ago and so far so good. Before, my signal would just bounce all over the place and with this build I don't see that. Everything is running smooth and my browser is much faster. Wish I could comment on battery but we all know how that goes.

**SpiritsFade** · 04-16-2012, 03:56 PM

Thank you for the heads up on this. Didn't hear about it on twitter surprisingly. Guess because its not a leak

**paperplanes7** · 04-16-2012, 09:37 PM

Anyone have a list of the changes made in this update ??

**manofice1** · 04-17-2012, 06:24 AM

no one else running this?

RIM don't issue change logs.

**manofice1** · 04-17-2012, 06:50 AM

went to install this and it practically said I was "downgrading" most of the things from the current version i have installed which is .340. Some of things it did say upgrade on is the browser and setup I believe.

Edit: anyways, installing now

**pcgizmo** · 04-17-2012, 07:22 AM

This is much better than that piece of junk leak 340. I just have to go back and remove some of the crap they force on the device: Help, VVM, and Caller Name ID.

I agree that 340 was horrible. I have this 342 loaded up and so far so good

**wazzugrad** · 04-17-2012, 08:55 AM

PlayBook update and a new OS for the Bold. Starting off to be a good day.

**snihed** · 04-17-2012, 01:27 PM

Is anyone here using OSBB/69goats .342 hyrbid over .340 then upgraded to this? How is the difference? 69goats hybrid was super in terms of battery life, and I'm still satisfied with it. I just want to get feedback on this before jumping over the fence.

**miguel11691** · 04-17-2012, 01:28 PM

this OS update is so far so good... leaps and bounds better than .167 i was on...

Check the hybrids section. This thread is for the 342 OS.

167? Wow!

**dustanh** · 04-17-2012, 02:11 PM

Installed and running... finally.

I don't know what my deal is, I've nuked my device twice in the past two weeks when loading an OS. I feel like I'm losing my touch! I figured out why though, don't use a "program" to locate and delete the vendor file(s).

Too early to notice any difference yet.

pcgizmo... Nice to see you around again. I take it that CrackBerry Anonymous didn't work out for you?

**snihed** · 04-17-2012, 02:14 PM

@pcgizmo:

Yes I can see that. I dont know if you understood what I was trying to ask but I believe my question is still relevant to the thread, I'm only inquiring if someone who, before upgrading to this official release, was running the hybrid .342 by OSBB, and asking about their thoughts on the difference in performance, since the hybrid used the same .342 cods over the earlier .340 official release for the 9930.

Jeez.

lol...I wasn't attending CBA meetings, I just needed a break from all of the nonsense here. So I'm here for the day just to read up on 342.

Sorry to hear you keep nuking your Bold, 342 went off without a hitch last night for me.

edit: Thanks Rich for stickying this.

Yeah, you’re not missing much.

As for the nuking, well, it was pretty much my fault. At least I figured out why. I couldn’t get it going the first time around, so VZW sent me a replacement, but then I got it running. The replacement is running just the same as previous except for a very minor auto scroll issue in dark lighting.

Just curious, why do you think that it was a vendor delete program that contributed to your "nuking" and which one was it ?
