Yeah, the difference is night and day between .75 and .113. I just had a family vacation while on .75; I ended up with pictures of other people's kids, not mine, because the camera was too slow. On .113, the camera is snappy.
damn verizon sucks they havent realeased a new os update yet and their storm os which im unfortunate to have sucks really bad i love this phone but dude ive seen older bbs faster than this one
There have been instances when I have tried taking pictures with the camera, and it has taken in excess of 20 seconds for the camera to respond. And this is while having 44 megs of free application memeory on os .113, immediatley after a battery pull. I don't understand why RIM even put a camera on this Blackberry if the operating systems that they write cannot handle it? I could deal with a slight lag but sometimes this thing just ridiculous. And I'm not even running any third party apps, and I have my device optimized strictly for speed.
I am running the latest OS 1.47 from Verizon camera was still very slow I did this.
A: choose smaller size pic
B. Turn OFF stabilization (not really needed unless a camera has a super zoom anyway)
C:geotagging disabled
Until Rim and Verizon get their crap together this is the best I can do. It cut down on half the time it use to take to snap a picture. Which means now I can only read 4 copies of Macbeth instead of 8.
