- Folks! just compared the About Device Versions on the original screenshot posted in crackberry with the About screen on leaked version installed on my phone...
noted the following diff:
Branding Version on official: 1.0.107.268p
Branding Version on Leaked:1.0.99.440x
Could anyone please explain the difference...
I mean is it an upgrade or just a branding difference02-07-12 04:52 AMLike 0 - I am using the older .74 leak because it allows me to use mobile hotspot without having to pay for a tether fee (and doesn't direct me to pay a fee when I activate it either). I don't know if that is a bug in .74 or I got lucky, but I've been afraid to update since that leak.
Since this is an "official" t-mobile release now, are you guys able to use hotspot without an add'l tether add-on service fee?02-07-12 04:55 AMLike 0 -
- The OTA keeps asking me to try later or use DM message. On DM I'm also getting request failed. Called Tmobile and ask them why I keep getting the OTA message and the rep said it not on there website, OS 7.1 not ready and RIM sent the OS to the phone. Wtf? Smh! Then why is it in "options" under "device" and not on the T-mobile site? Waiting for the Official official release.02-07-12 06:33 AMLike 0

How can you have a smartphone and not know how to search? So many snarks.
Maybe you could try one of the "Leaked Links" so you can actually download it. LMAOLast edited by olblueyez; 02-07-12 at 06:56 AM.

I also don't like the idea of installing code that's been leaked to my phone, which is the most sensitive thing i have in terms of personal information. It's very simply why me and many other people don't trust leaks and would rather wait it out...02-07-12 07:26 AMLike 0

- ALBERTINIK, not everyone has an I.T. degree so nobody wants to be fiddling around with files or vendor XL, and deleting things left and right. People rather just have a straight legal download.02-07-12 07:58 AMLike 0
- Anyways, 24 hours later and i am still getting the same message 'download via DM'. UGHHHH!!! Why release it in waves? They really need to cut the nonsense. I have no idea why my 9700 and 9780 have better wi-fi than the 9900. I feel like my 9900 will never have a solid wi-fi connection if it doesn't have UMA calling.02-07-12 08:00 AMLike 0

Also, after installing it on my phone, I noticed a new app installed.It's called Tmobile Name ID which prompts you to save the number of the new caller. Also if the caller is not in your contacts yet, it also shows the city where the call is coming from.
Since this is a tmo app, did i after all install the official .205 from TMO?
BTW, this app is a subscription app for 3.99/mo. I have to call TMO later to verify whether i have mistakenly confirmed to have/subscribe to this app.02-07-12 10:25 AMLike 0 - Legal Eagle, I used the link you shared in the leaked .205 thread. I installed it last night and there were no vendor.xml files to delete. I just downloaded it to my pc, and installed it. I just followed the prompts, that's it. Thanks, BTW.

This being the case I doubt if the OS you downloaded is the T Mobile release and would guess that the app you have noticed is a separate T Mobile update sent to you OTA.02-07-12 10:34 AMLike 0
