I've noticed my homescreen image is magnified for some reason.

I believe this is the same thing Sith mentioned.

Default Working great so far

Even moodio is streaaming nicely. Under .90 it kept resetting the phone each time I used it then gave me the media card and VSOD.

Camera is snappier

Pict load slower in media center

Default still no fix

for the phone ringing when I have custom ring tones applied to someone. I hate having to turn the phone off completely when iI'm n a meeting becasue the phone rings when it's on silent or vibrate for people who call who have custom ring tone.

anyone lese still experience this issue? Maybe it is just me, but this sure seems like it should have been addressed right away.

Default My opinions on this OS

Process of installation:
1) Connect via USB
2) JL_CMDER Wipe
3) Battery Pull
4) Install the OS via Blackberry Desktop Manager (TIP: In order to NOT have to remove the vendor.xml file, you have to wipe the device with JL_CMDER and get the 507 error message, then the OS will load perfectly from the BDM)
5) Waited to load for about 5+ mins. (normal)

Opinions RIGHT after the install... no battery pull, yet.
1) I have noticed that it has gotten faster then .90
2) New Phone icon
3) Back to the old .86 Application Center icon
4) Accelerometer is a little faster EDIT: A lot faster for me...
5) 38.8MB Application Memory (Free Space)
6) New Browser edits.. Very impressive looking. NEW "Go" button with a green highlight around it, added.
7) Browser is a bit faster too
8) No more of that effect (that wooshhh and then it highlights all keys on the bottom navi.. lol im confusing..) when you click on "Media"
9) Camera works beautifully... took a successful picture! YAY!

Just did Battery Pull... lets see now.
1) Got media card inserted, went away... yay! What a relief?
2) 50.5MB Application Memory (Free Space)
3) I am still amazed by the speed of the accelerometer.. hehe ohh yeahh baby
4) 2.5 seconds to load Google.com!
5) 3 seconds to load I Love My Storm!
6) 4.3 seconds to load Yahoo!
.... ok you get the point.. the browser is a tad bit faster.
7) Ohh yeah, lets see if I get that woooshhh effect in "media' = Nope.. the wooshh effect is gone.

Restored some settings and custom dictionary from old database
- Now the memory is...47.9MB.

(Sorry about this number system I'm having there... best I can do)

Damn go I love this build or what?!?!!

The camera is now as fast as actual standalone digital cameras!!!

The quality of the pictures taken now are loads better than they were before.

A device I was already impressed with, just became even more impressive. I knew it; people that returned their Storms too soon ended up passing on a truly unbelievable device.

The biggest complaint about the Storm right now is the browser that could use improvements, but they are making improvements and, best of all, there will be browsers designed for the Storm. Also, yea I'm noticing that something is taking up much more memory now as well. I've been at 36MB since the new OS was loaded, but it's running incredibly.

-This build is definitely slower than .90
-Camera issues all seem to be resolved, very fast to take pictures and night pics even seem slightly better.
-Browser is ALOT faster for me
-Setting the alarm clock no longer causes my Storm to lock up
-I like the larger keyboard in .90
-I have not noticed a change in color depth, but it's pretty late
-5 battery pulls and no Media Card error (yet, it took a few days for this to start in .90)

Overall seem like a pretty stable build, and I will not be going back to .90, but all these leaks seem to rock for the 1st couple of days and then the issues start to pop up after people start using the phone like a phone........
