Did you delete the vendor file if you have Verizon?
What is the best way to do a wipe?

I would love to join in the fun on these OS leaks, if only there was a way to update the OS without having to re-activate my account with my work's BES.

I can't keep asking for a BES activation.... unless there are tricks I do not know of to get around this?

Os Review Clean Wipe

-Starting Memory 48.5
-Portrait to landscape, very quick ½ second if that to flip.
-Camera quality seems much improved
-Camera speed still laggy it may be a little faster but I don't think so
-Exiting programs seems a lot snappier. Before my phone would kind of lag when exiting a program back to the homescreen.
-Music/Media player, doesn't have the hiccups but I haven't used it too much just yet.
-Keyboard - WOW that's all I can really say. The keyboard can actually keep up with my fingers now
-Browser - Well I only have 1 bar right now, but the browser is a lot faster. I'm not sure what they did to it but mobile sites and google are almost instant. I also went to Yahoo Sports a page I view a lot on my storm and I would say it loaded up in 1/3 the time it usually takes.

That's all I have for now but I will keep you guys posted. I'm really loving this upgrade. I noticed a bigger improvement from .75-.83 then I did .65-.75

Success! Camera works much faster, I'm guessing I can even take pictures of real people now!

Goodnight...

Attention Everyone! I Just Tested The .75 Os I Have Running On My Storm With The .83 Video Posted On The The Blog Page, And Mine Is Running At The Same Speed. (tested The Portrait To Landscape Speed And Opening Of Text Messaging) I'm Waiting For The Official Release In Hopes That It Will Be Highger Than .83. Doesnt Seem To Be Anything Special Right Now.

Anyone else having problems with a custom picture as a homescreen image? I now have a white bar across the top of the screen where the top of the image used to be.

My accelerometer is blazing fast no matter what I'm doing. I even opened a lot of programs and went to the home screen and tried it. It was still pretty damn fast.
