Why don't you try .65 for yourself and find out lol. To save the trouble...it was a nightmare...nearly got in trouble @ school. Random rings. .75 took about a good old month till it rolled out officially. I had the leaked one =)

Obviously comparing it to whats out now(.114) or even .75, .65 was hella slow, but at the time it was all that was out and thinking back it was irritatingly slow but I remember .75 being a big deal at the time. Since the phone was released basically 6 months before it was supposed to we basically got some early beta software. Towards end of March maybe April we will finally see the Storm as it should have always been.

Thanks but no thanks. I'm still on .75 and half the reason I haven't done an upgrade to oh say .109 is I haven't gotten a round tuit. The other half of the reason is I'm willing to wait for next official release.

For the first few leaks that was my excuse, I figured it was too much effort, wouldn't be worth it, etc. It pretty much is, it's like upgrading your phone every few weeks. The installation doesn't seem so easy, but it is. Just download it from one of the links, if you're on windows, just click the .exe, it installs on your computer, plug in your phone, update it, et voila. Although it does take like 20-30 minutes, atleast for me, to install the new OS.
Those were dark days...but thank God for leaked OSes. Now, whenever I see a "normal" Storm user running .75, I almost want to go up to them and apologize lol.

i was soooo happy to be the first customer in line for the Storm the morning it came out. at the time i didn't care about 65...i was just extatic to have the new Storm in my hand that i had been following for MONTHS. but as the month wore on, i was getting tired of how laggy it was getting, then started running beta OS's as they came out. looking back....65 was DAMN slow compared to 109 i'm on now.
Please don't sugarcoat it... let us know how you really liked it!
Actually Ill prolly install 109 this weekend. The camera is supposed to get better among other things and tonight I actually had a chance to test it. Man that camera sw on .75 is a "steaming heap of dung" still

I bought the Storm on 11/21 and suspected it suffered from the screen click issues that some of the devices had. While I rode that out (making sure it wasn't me), I upgraded to the leaks at the time... .75, .83, .85....85 really bugged me. I finally decided I had the screen click issue, the VZW store agreed and gave me a new device. By this time, .75 is the official OS.
I decided that I would wait for the next "official" release...one of my friends had upgraded to one of the .9x leaks, which was killing his phone worse than .85. So, that reinforced my desire to wait...then I watch his Storm in action with .109, and I couldn't wait any more...
...upped my Storm to .109 and have been pretty impressed, and fortunate that I've not yet encountered any issues so far...
So, if you're thinking about it...I recommend .109...you can always go back.

Don't forget to back up your phone first
