Just installed it... not bad, but the phone is taking way too much time to boot up than .569!

So far, no bugs... smooth as silk, battery life? can't tell... but i will edit this post tomorrow

EDIT #1: my camera hung up... was taking pictures really slow and all of a sudden the app stopped responding, minimized it... nothing! That never happened to me before, i'll look into it...

Here's my updated OS install guide if anyone needs a refresher...

ELITE1's OS UPGRADE GUIDE
(updated 2012-09-01)

1. (Optional) Uninstall any previous OS from PC.
2. Download OS to PC. Use Internet Explorer, not Firefox or Chrome. (For leaked versions, browser is irrelevant.)
   *If 100% certain you previously used FF or Chrome on same PC to DL an OS successfully, feel free to use FF or Chrome again.
3. Following successful DL, run OS file to install OS on PC.
4. On BB, go to BBM Options, scroll down to Backup section. Ensure Remote Backup is enabled AND also conduct a Local Backup to media card.
5. Go through any 3rd party apps with option to save settings to media card. Conduct Backup to media card within each of these apps. (Examples: Bellshare apps like BerryBuzz & BerryWeather; QuickLaunch; Shao's apps like Wallpaper Changer & SixTools; etc).
6. Connect BB to PC. Open DM and backup device. Close DM.
7. (Optional) Use desktop app like BBSAK or BBMCP to backup 3rd party apps.
8. On PC, delete Vendor file located here:
   64-bit: Computer/C:/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Research In Motion/AppLoader
   32-bit: Computer/C:/Program Files/Common Files/Research In Motion/AppLoader
9. (Optional/Recommended) Run BBH Tool (formerly Shrink-A-OS) or BB Boss v2.2 (not as updated as BBHT).
10. In same AppLoader file where you deleted Vendor, double-click Loader to load OS to BB. Follow onscreen instructions.
11. After loading OS, perform several physical battery pulls over first 1-2 days for OS to "settle in." Perform first batt pull very soon after OS is loaded.

**TROUBLESHOOTING**
How to Fix OS not Appearing as Available
There are 2 common reasons:

A. HIDDEN VENDOR FILE
Consider trying this new desktop app to remove Vendor from several common locations:
http://forums.crackberry.com/blackbe...-files-709738/

If manually deleting Vendor, always hold down SHIFT and press DELETE to permanently delete.
Check here first:
64-bit: Computer\C:\Users\{USER NAME}\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
32-bit: Computer\C:\Documents and Settings\{USER NAME}\Application Data\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
If Loader still doesn't make new OS available, search PC for "Vendor".

If Vendor is not found anywhere, see below to delete contents of AppLoader folder. (Folder where you found Loader & Vendor.)

B. APPLOADER FOLDER ITEMS

1. Uninstall the OS: Control Panel\Programs and Features, highlight this BlackBerry Device Software, click Uninstall at top.
2. Delete AppLoader folder contents: Highlight any item, CTRL+A to select all, SHIFT+DELETE to permanently delete.
   64-bit: Computer/C:/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Research In Motion/AppLoader
   32-bit: Computer/C:/Program Files/Common Files/Research In Motion/AppLoader
3. Restart PC.
4. Re-install OS on PC: Go to your browser's downloads section, double-click OS to start InstallShield Wizard.
5. Delete Vendor: Return to AppLoader folder, highlight Vendor, SHIFT+DELETE.
6. Load OS to BB: Attach BB to PC, double-click Loader (in AppLoader folder, where you deleted Vendor).

PS I've posted this before in other threads, but there always seems to be some people that appreciate a step-by-step each time.

Oh no! And now the question: install this one.. Or the beta leaked .714?? What d'you think?

Depends on your carrier and location.
If you're on AT&T and have had the mic issue, then use this 694 OS.

Otherwise, monitor the thread for 714 in the Leaked OS Forum to see others' feedback.

As soon as you have the chance, please update your profile to include your device, carrier, and location. This makes it easier for others to help you.

Hi. I have a BB curve 9360 unlocked, and subscribing to Globe Telecom in the Philippines.

Will updating to the OS from AT&T be detrimental to my phone?
Thanks!

Yes you can. I have AT&T OS installed on my unlocked BlackBerry. I think I have problem with GPS. By the way, I'm also in the Philippines.

[anon(4316677)]

By "GPS Problems", do you mean that the phone or apps won't be able to determine your location automatically? Like, when you use weather apps?

[PaulaJava]

Does this update have the 2G option. I found that when 2G is available it's a huge battery saving option. Also, in general have any of you have upgrade to this OS notice a difference in battery life? I love my 9360. The battery just doesn't last long enough.

First of all, the installation closed out (and nothing happened after that) after showing the apps installed (asking if anything was to be removed). Re-run the installation & click on the advance option on the same screen showing installed apps - it then shows the next screen. Anyways, the 2nd time as well, the OS version is still the same on my phone.

Also, for some strange reason, my outlook calendar is out of date. Looks like some appointments were removed from outlook however they are still present on the device.

I thought of playing safe by installing a slightly older version & look where i am now. Will upgrade to the newest version available asap
