I downloaded it, but I think I'll let someone else play guinea pig for awhile before I switch.

Just kinda wierd as it didnt do this on .266, i think the MMS issue was just random as i sent more with sucess.

Works well for me.
Boot time ~ 3 minutes
Speedy Operation
Can select 2G / 3G or 2G only on ATT
All email, sms, mms works
Lots of memory
No apparent memory leaks yet
Note: It did require a battery pull after the OS update and I did a further soft "alt-caps-delete" reset to clean things up. It is working great now!

So far so good for me. No issues on the install, all apps that I use are working and no signs of any memory leak. Reboot after battery pull took just under 6 mins.
Certainly not a POS for me...

| | Really annoying
I never had problems updating or downgrading before, so this is really annoying. When I finish loading the new OS, DM opens up. It is looking for upgrades, but nothing comes up besides the old foreign language upgrades that I always ignore. The vendor file is erased and everything, what am I doing wrong? Anyone else have this happen to?

I looooove my new computer at my work desk!! Brand new...and rocket fast! Start to finish, this install only took 30-minutes tops! That's a first for me!
So far, seems a little zippier than .266, but I expect that with a fresh install. The ability to manually change from EDGE to 3G is great...but I don't see anything else new & different. Just finished the post-install battery pull...so the next day or so will be judgement time.
Heck, at least this will help us bide our time until stinking RIM releases the official 5.0 OS for our Bolds!! |  | | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | | | |
