2 questions for folks that have already downloaded the update:
1. Is battery life as bad as the leaked 7.1 updates?
2. Is the mobile hotshot still being blocked? I tried the leaked 7.1 and when I tried to use mobile hotshot on my pb, it prompted me to add tethering to my plan.
2. I could be wrong but I believe its carrier dependent, not OS dependent.
I also believe all the hoopla about battery life has caused a lot of people to blame poor battery life on the phone or OS when its apps, settings, signal strength, etc.
We all know its a smaller battery than a 9700 or 9000 but this phone does so much more than the others and it does these things so much quicker. Relatively speaking I believe it does more each day than you could ever achieve with a 9700 or 9000.
There is rumour of power saving features in up and comming 7.1 releases and CB even has a thread about a replacement for the JM-1.
OTA was there for the past 3 days for me (no luck getting it to work). I did a wipe this morning and now the phone says it is up to date with the 7.0 version (not the 7.1). I believe the update was pulled out.
Im using the Leaked .205 with the .74 hotspot COD. My mobile hotspot isnt working. I've used the epc.tmobile.com and it saids network error. I've used the Internet-web-web sequence and it takes the login but doesnt create an internet connection. Am I correct to assume that there is noway around not changing your plan to use the abilities of the hotspot??
So ive been nagging Tmobile a bit on twitter about NFC and this is the only response ive got indicating that NFC may come. Maybe more of you should throw a few comments at them as well in keeping with the CB way of life.... (nagging companies for our apps etc) lol
hey guys, I have an unlocked T-mobile BB 9900, I was wondering if I can upgrate my BB to 7.1? and how to do this? kinda new to BB still need to learn some things.
Just checked the TMobile support Community and this is what appeared this morning. Yet another delay in releasing the official OS.

It was for TMO US users only... but it's been temporarily pulled
Don't you just hate it how networks are so controlling? I'm eagerly waiting for vodafone uk to release os 7.1 not wanting to install the leak just yet.
T-Mobile Forms just announced yesterday they are delaying the release.... again.
Have not provided an ETA as to when the official OTA will be released.
