you know someone had to start this one up again . i have had the bold since Aug ( go rogers ) and have used every OS to date and just wanted to see what every one else thought .

And we will break it down into best overall , best battery , best browser .

for me ....
best over all - 4.6.0.210
best battery - 4.6.0.234
best browser - 4.6.0.237

let the best OS war begin lol

.216 /thread

Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com

[DrJerry]

I think .221 is the best so far. No crashes or freezes, improved battery life, good 3G signal capture, stable memory (hovering around 42 with 7 apps added), and very decent battery life. Browser seems faster than .216 and
.217...as well as app switching. Music volume bug is gone and pics load fast from card.
So far...all is well. I will stick with this OS till AT&T comes out with visual voicemail.

[nataltom]

For me the best so far is .234.

Been no crash or freeze

[romeo204]

loving it , loving it . come on crackberry world lets find the best OS for the bold . lol

[anesto]

.216, in my opinion, the battery life is greratly improved

[Sir Lance So Not]

Im very happy with 237.

[geoffmcmanus]

.237 has been the best for me.

Pros:
Battery Life - best so far
Memory - Holds steady around 48
Browser - fastest easily

Cons:
Call quality - sometimes get a hum
Dropped 3G - sometimes 3G just goes away for know reason. I have to reboot to get back to 3G coverage.

i found the battery not to be as good as .234 and to me that is big thats why i downgraded last night .

[LittleRedDot]

I've found .234 to have the best stability, although .237 is a close second, close enough to not downgrade.

Memory jumped from 47mb to 57 mb (after batt pull) when I went from .219 to .234, but stayed the same at .237.

Battery life is slightly better with .234 than .237, but both of them are better than .219 or .216

Call quality has to go to .237. I'm always on 3G in places where I'd usually be in EDGE.

Add me to the .237 boat, it has been the best for me so far.

i tested .234 for a week and then .237 for a week and didn't see a difference in call quality but i am loving the feed back from everyone

[romeo204]

nice . so far .237 and .234 have it .

i don't know how to do that after i have started a thread . do you ?

[lalifeguards]

LOL I searched these forums, google, and yahoo answers, no luck. I don't want to look like a newb so I'm not going to ask... hehe

[synwars]

Really? Seriously you guys can tell the difference like that? Almost night & day? I'm still running the Rogers 4.6.0.292 update which really is 4.6.0.162 and I have had no problems with it. Updated it once, battery life way improved, no more white screen errors, faster, 43 MB avg, call quality great, WiFi fixed, WAP streaming glitched fixed, yadda yadda... Is it really worth it to upgrade to an OS that isn't offered by my carrier?

Yes I am a noob to BB OS's.

[taddley]

I'm liking .237, after having really good experience with .217 since December.

[avt123]

.237 is the best for me. Great signal strength, great batter life, 57mb available memory after battery pull and just everything has been great. Definitely my favorite OS so far.

[prince_1308]

its all bout .185 for that amazing batt life ive been thinking of downgrading cause all the other os seem to not come close in terms of batt life

[tehdvd]

i'm on att currently running .221 and was previously using .216. So far these are the best version for me in terms of reliability and speed. Solid 3g signal versus the other versions(including the newer ones available currently) which seem to give me dropped data errors as seen with .167.

[ST79]

I think .237 is a solid build.. Good overall performance.
