    After upgrading to Roger's 5.0.0.822 and experiencing issues with sound profiles not working and picture/camera quality being noticeably grainy (I have no idea why, I didn't have this issue with 4.6), I've gone back to 4.6 for the time being. Does anyone have any recommendations for which version of 5.0 is the most stable/problem free?

    Just my personal experience, I've had no issues at all with 5.0.0.822 or 5.0.0.509. My Bold runs flawlessly on both.

    Not good: 5.0.0.822
    Problems encountered: flaky reboot. "reboots" in 10 secs--which is not a reboot. Device memory always gets corrupted afterwards. Battery pull will solve it, but not a solution for me.
    Sounds get messed up.

    Not good: 5.0.0.681
    Problems encountered: same flaky reboot. VVM asks for password after EVERY reboot. Battery and reception bars are stuck. Will not update until you do a battery pull.

    Loading 5.0.0.509 right now!!! Hopefully this works. I might have to go back to 4.6 if not...

    My bold is currently running 5.0.0.882 and So far I'm happy that I upgraded from 4.6.

    Some of the things I noticed right away were an increase of about 30% in my battery life. I also noticed an overall speed increase with the performance of my bold, this includes the browser speed. Another thing I noticed was a decrease in application memory of about 5-10mb.

    I'm happy with 882, but I have seen people say that they prefer other versions over it, and I have also seen some say that they hate the other versions and that they prefer 882. I think it's just really subjective, you know? It depends on your personal experience.

    I've had the audio issue with every version of 5.0, currently back down to 4.6

    .509 was the least bothersome; still had audio, just fainter.

    Um, I'm pretty sure there is no 4.x OS available for the 9700.

    Maybe you meant an earlier version of 5.0?
