OS Update???

[souljourney]

So when will TMobile get the offical OS update (4.5.??) for the Curve?
I've heard the speakerphone isn't as loud... wonder it if that will get fixed.

Same question every day; same answer every day: no one knows.

i just downloaded the 4.5 and installed it on my tmobile curve 8320 and its awesome. AIM is a full feature AIM with my WHOLE buddy list, and there are alot of other little things that I noticed and like alot. Alot better then the 4.2 that comes pre-loaded. Just install it yourself, its not that hard, I followed the tutorials and it was a breeze!

fyi, the 4.5 that Mylexon20s is referring to is NOT an official t-mobile release.

4.5.0.52 is working well for me and my wife, though it's not an 'official release" from T-mobile.

i've read some horror stories about calls using UMA on 4.5.0.55, and those were supposedly fixed with 4.5.0.69.

all in all, i'm glad i went with 4.5.0.52, but if you're waiting for an "official release" from T-mobile you'll be holding the bag awhile. I contacted T-mobile's BB help desk, and they don't have any information about a release date nor any expectations about upgrading the OS.

i am currently on 4.5.0.69 and i am not having any problems... though UMA sux in general, even on 4.2.2.184

With the understanding that 4.5 is not an official OS by TMO, the install process will not change once it does become official!!!

I believe I read somewhere on CB that AT&T will be making 4.5 official soon... I believe they have a release date... but I don't remember what date that was... I just hope TMO follows suit.

If anyone wants to uhh .. PM me some linkage to .69 I would appreciate it.

i have a related question.
When you back up the BB to upgrade to 4.5, will the myfaves app transfer?

[uncheels23]

88 yes it will the tmo five library is on every 8320 os even if the carrier doesn't have it

Yes anyone wnating to update theyre Os should def check the topic in the blackberry 83xx section
i just updated to 4.5 and could not be happier. the video feature is amazing the wifi calls are cleaer my txts are more consistent (i used to miss some here n there with the wifi) now my phone goes from wifi to GPRS service without dropping calls. my google maps now works. the calender is better the myfavs features are even better everything is better and different i recommend going ahead and updating to 4.5 regardless. my myfavs how holds bdays and anniversaries which is cool. i love the os 4.5 update get its worth it
