I have upgraded from .88 to .90 and had the phone locked twice in a couple hours, requiring two battery pulls. Another issue besides everything already reported is that the phone started to mute again while talking. This was not really happening on 88 and is a MAJOR issue as, afterall, this is a phone.
Other than this, the os seems ok. If it weren't for the battery charge, I would go back to 88.

Thanks for the help earlier, I was getting scared I'd lost everything. Will update in a couple of days when I've had a chance to play

OK, I've tried upgrading to .90 but either I'm a complete moron, or something isn't working properly. I downloaded the .90 OS .exe file, backed up everything using BB DM, started the .90 executable, plugged in my BB when prompted, it opens DM, yet it doesn't find any applications that need updated. What am I missing? I am currently on .75 and that's all that shows up in the list, or a downgrade to .65. HELP!

Am i the only one whose media player is causing the phone to lock up??

Happens after a short while playing a track and then shuts the phone down.

On rebooting the phone brings up the media card inserted error and locks up - never had any of these issues previously.

Should i do a wipe and reinstall (not doen that yet!)

Thanks

Installed .90 from .85. I am now about to downgrade!
The OS seems really snappy - much faster!
The problem is that it has crashed badly about 3 times tonight. It also seems to lose data connection to the network but doesn't let me know this. GRRRR.

Other problems:
Media Card bug
Vodafone screen of death bug (vodafone screen always on - can't get out of it)


So - back to the drawing board RIM.

Upgraded to .90 so far so good, I must say. Quicker than ever, another step in the right direction, had lots of trouble with the battery draining all of a sudden before. At the moment this problem seems to have gone but will confirm after a few days of use. New phone icon , new application icon and new emergency call icon, few changes to the keyboard and most menus scroll quicker than before. Keep it coming, let's hope for a more official one soon, more can be done I'm sure.

I cannot begin to say how awesome .90 is for my phone. I have waited for an update that would correct the camera, quick on speed and good on memory. This is SO much faster that any other version I have used so far. All those who said the other updates corrected the camera and made it more responsive, I didn't see the difference. THIS version is much better. I can see some minor issues with the camera button when you want to take another picture, but so far it has been just a glitch in the button and bar turning white, then it will work fine. Saves pictures without a problem, scrolls good, loads pages good and I have not seen the issue with it locking up when hitting Talk, BB and then Options. Tried it multiple times on different screens on the Talk (Contacts, Log and Dial Pad).

I will most definitely report back on this thread and others as problems surface, if any.
