Also, if you're ever unsatisfied with .148 and want to downgrade back, leave .132 installed on your computer and in DM you'll have an option to pick the OS you want to install.05-20-09 06:54 PMLike 0 - 05-20-09 06:58 PMLike 0
- I was on .132 for a long time, refused to go to .141 because of all the bugs and was not up for trying a hybrid again. upgrade to .148 last night and it's been good, even quicker than .132 so I would recommend the upgrade. so far pretty stable.
before upgrading though, I always uninstall the previous version of the OS from my computer, reboot, then install the newer version. When DM loads, there is only one upgrade option. I haven't had any problems doing this at all. If you want to go back to .132 you can uninstall .148 from your computer and reinstall .132 assuming you still have the downloaded .exe files. I always save those just in case.
BTW - I'm extra paranoid so I reboot my computer every time I uninstall or install a new OS. Just OCD like that but haven't run into any problems yet.05-20-09 07:55 PMLike 0 - I was on .132 for a long time, refused to go to .141 because of all the bugs and was not up for trying a hybrid again. upgrade to .148 last night and it's been good, even quicker than .132 so I would recommend the upgrade. so far pretty stable.

I think I read through all the pages on the 148 findings thread and decided to take the leap. Brother-in-law installed 148 with the 90 radio code and he said all was working as good as, if not better than 132.

- 132 has been the best leaked os for me but 148 has been pretty good so far. memory has gone up from 37 to 42 after installing 148.05-20-09 10:21 PMLike 0
- I am going to wait till the official release!! I am rockin .141 and it's running fine for me no bugs.. I have a source that's telling me Verizon will have there official out by the end of May. But you know how these sources are they are just like these OS " Hit & Miss"05-20-09 10:31 PMLike 0

if they did release it officialy would there be any difference between the leaked OS over the official one? or will they just be the same?05-21-09 07:28 AMLike 0 -
- Had been running .132 since it came out. Best OS I've run and I've tried most of them. Didn't bother with .141 because I didn't want to mess with a good thing! But....I was starting to get some lag after a couple weeks on .132 so thought I'd try .148....life was getting a little boring without a new OS to play with!!!
I've had .148 for about 24 hours now and like it. Not much difference from .132 but the lag I was having went away and it seems to be a little bit smoother. Runs like a slightly better version of .132.
My feeling is that we're getting closer and closer to a Gold Code, so the differences in the upgrades are probably going to be less and less noticeable.05-21-09 01:54 PMLike 0 - Now there is a new app that allows people to create there own hybrid you can take the best of all the leaked OS’s and create your own. Pretty cool.05-21-09 02:04 PMLike 0

Its worth the upgrade, .148 is the best OS so far.05-21-09 02:16 PMLike 0 - upgraded last night and so far all is well i like this os alot sofar... aslong as there isnt any big bugs i havnt found out yet... i like it alot05-22-09 07:20 AMLike 0
- Yes, this is a great OS. I have a bit more lag switching from lanscape-portrait and the other way around too. Minor nag of course.05-22-09 07:27 AMLike 0
