Title says it - 6.x.x.436(450-466) for 9650, with optional 6.1 install.
THIS HAS TO BE INSTALLED OVER .431. Please do a fresh .431 install - you don't need to delete the vendor.xml, the installer takes care of that for you.
The installer is a little big (140mb), because I had to include all the .436 files that under normal circumstances would be in the OS folder. Blame Altel for releasing it only OTA or on DM for Altel customers.
If you want to run the hybrid with the 6.1 files, you have to run the installer twice. That was the easiest way for me to set it up.
This hybrid should be installed over .431,because the .466 radio SUCKS. Sorry, but it's true. If you try to install this over .466, I'm almost certain it'll brick.
It contains 150 or so 436 files (the base), a couple hundred 466 files, three or so .450 files (to replace incompatible .466 files), and optionally 149 6.1 files.
The installer will optionally launch BB Boss to shrink, and will launch loader.exe after you close the installer too. And as mentioned, the installer will cripple Verizon's vendor file.
If anyone has any questions post up.
Remember that I only test on 9650s - most of my hybrids could possibly work on other devices, but this one probably won't. Feel free to try it tho
The 6.1 files will certainly work on other phones though, confirmed on 9330, 9700, and 9300.
Oh, if you're running a third party theme, your theme options won't restore. Not my fault, sorry. Email RIM about it.
Same goes with BBM groups not restoring - if that happens, please email RIM, I personally am sick of my BBM groups not restoring (although they did restore this time).
Again thanks to OpenSourceBB.com for providing hosting (awesome site for sharing your BlackBerry downloads - NO WAREZ. Is it ok to recommend other BlackBerry sites on CrackBery?) Also thanks to everyone who beta tested this - you guys saved everyone from non-working video cameras, VAD, and voice recorders (and got me the .436 files).
If you want to join the test team, pin or PM me. Especially if you want to learn more about hybrid building yourself.
Download link: 6.x(i).x.436(450-466) for 9650 - make sure to download the right one, 6.x(i).x.436(450-466) for 9650.
Enjoy everyone.
Update: New installer uploaded, same download link. The new build is called 6.x(i).x.436-or-443(450-466).exe - I may have to think of a new way to name my hybrids lol, that ones is overly long.
I combined this hybrid and the .443 hybrid, because the only difference between the two is that this one contains .436 files (which were needed because .436 still isn't available to everyone from Altel).
I also updated to the bbm, twitter, and facebook which were leaked yesterday. If you don't want those files, you can run the installer a second time and restore the old versions (.12 for twitter, .46 for BBM, and .26 for facebooK).
Just so everyone knows, I was getting bad battery life on the 443 build so I "downgraded" to this one and I feel like this one gets superior performance.
Enjoy guys
