Hi Everyone!
im quite new to the forum, sorry if this has allready been asked.
What would you say is the best version of os7 for the curve 9360?
ive tried .353 and 7.1.190, but not the ones inbetween.
thanks again
Joe!

I really haven't tried many releases. In fact, I have tried one. My 9360 came with .319 and obviously it had some terrible heat issues which was my only real concern. Once I upgraded to .594 the heat issue was addressed and I have no other issues at all.

Perhaps other releases are better, but .594 seems to be flawless for me.

That all depends on usage, of course.

Sometimes I can get a full two days out of my battery if I don't actually use the phone for making calls. I generally don't communicate via phone calls so that's great to me, but when I do, those phone calls do a number on my battery and drain it extremely fast. If my battery is at 80% before a call, talking for an hour generally drains it by 40% - 50%. So I may be left with 30% battery life after a call of that length.

With just texting/BBM/email and some web browsing, the average I get is about a days worth of usage. On the safe side I just plug the phone in at night so I don't have to worry throughout the day.

If you make a lot of phone calls throughout your day, though, this might pose a problem. But battery life is easily remedied with just having a charger handy or even getting the spare battery and dual-battery charger.

ah ok, thanks for your advice! i think i might update to .594 becuase that sounds good to me, but .353 isnt too bad either, i go out at 7, text and bbm throughout the day and come back at 4 with 50-65% battery remaining. .594 sounds a tad better so ill upgrde to that in the next week
