Newest 8900 OS: v4.6.1.168 (Multilanguage)

[barrels]

Great find, thanks.
Super download speed (120MB in 2 mins, 6 secs)
Beats the official RIM download speed BIGTIME! (@RIM: that's a hint...)

Me too - especially wrt reception, signal strength, etc.

I updated from .133

after install and battery pull:

free memory is much improved

everything seems quick: apps load faster- had to adjust the trackball speed to lower setting

fonts seem bigger, clarity of screen seems improved (or maybe that's just me still waking up?) camera and vid cam load real quick, and seem clearer as well

wifi picked up right after battery pull. I don't subscribe to UMA, but the icon stays on longer than it did before.

I don't use youtube, but I tried it for the sake of this post, and no issues in stock browser- loaded right into media player with sound.

The issue does not seem to be fixed. Looking at it from here, the text continues beyond the edge of the text box.
And unless I hit return....

Darn.

So do you guys consider this to be a stable os? I'm thinking of upgrading to either .133 or this one from my stock tmoble os (.114)

I'm still using .133 because of the youtube issues with .152 and because it just works really well. Is the vibrate in .168 still weak? Also, are the ringing volumes still ungodly loud?

youtube seems to work well with this OS

the vibrate is weaker than it was on the 8320- I don't ever use it, but vibrate seems to be what I would expect from a high-end device in a silicone skin. enough to tickle my hand and make some noise on the desk.. I don't need it to dance!

i feel this best release
everything very smooth and more fast
but still have to use CJK, too bad not AllLang
battery life is ok, not see difference from .158

Same observations. The larger font and clear screen are what greeted me after the update. I really though it was just my aging eyes.

There's also a marked difference between low, medium and loud sound settings. The best OS so far.
