Why Has Vodafone reverted to .296 as official OS ?
- Yeah, but correct me if I'm wrong but hasn't this been an issue more or less since day one rather than just since .540 came out, and aren't some people still reporting it in the 7.1 build too ?
If it has been a constant problem the surely this can't be why .540 has been withdrawn.12-02-11 05:30 AMLike 0 - Ive been running 540 on my 9900 for a couple of weeks now and its been near enough perfect...i havent had any major issues or bugs to speak of. I did load up the leaked 7.1 OS and found that gave me major headaches so reverted to 540.
Interesting that RIM has pulled it and even more interesting that we dont know the exact reason why they pulled it.12-02-11 06:36 AMLike 0 -

"Hi
Looking at the list of firmware releases we haven't released that firmware. If we had and it got pulled it would have said. With you being on a different firmware and having any issues, I would recommend downloading the latest firmware from that site.
Thanks"

We had been warned by DM UK what a waste of time the Vodafone e.forum is and this surely proves that as always he was right.Last edited by Legal Eagle; 12-02-11 at 10:14 AM.

PS
Just checked the Vodafone UK BlackBerry e.forum and someone from Voda has finally admitted that they did have it as an official release but have no idea why it has been pulled and didn't know that it had been until Phill UK told them in his post !!!Last edited by Legal Eagle; 12-02-11 at 02:04 PM.
12-02-11 01:56 PMLike 0 - As said 24hrs ago, I've already been told RIM pulled it across EMEA - that's the best answer you're going to get really, you guys really shouldn't waste your time in that eForum. It will drain your lives.
If RIM reply to me why it was pulled I'll let you know.
I also listed some handy contact info for you lot to get through to people who sometimes know what they're talking about, about a page or so back.12-02-11 03:11 PMLike 0 - Hmm, .540 has been rock-solid on my 9900, but I had to find an alternate mirror site to get an official .540 (Voda Ireland). I noticed that every site I went to had reverted to an older version. That said, I am running .540 on both my 9900 (for weeks now) and my kids' 9860 (2 days). We'll see how it goes.12-02-11 04:35 PMLike 0

Thanks a bunch phil.12-03-11 09:51 AMLike 0 - I thought it was just me?! Went looking to download 540 and saw it was gone from Vodafone Ireland. Back to stock OS. However I did get the 540 from Turkel this morning and its running fantastic. One thing I noticed on 540 was 'verifying security software' does not show up on start up? A solid official OS update needs to be made availible for the 9900 asap.12-03-11 09:53 AMLike 0
- Nice goin bruce, you finally took the plunge. I'll keep mine posted as well as soon as I have enough time with .540. *fingers crossed*
Just a quick question, do you guys left the phone charged overnight? my friend woke up to a bricked phone, while my other friend charged overnight daily for the past 2 months with no problems.12-03-11 10:02 AMLike 0 - Nice goin bruce, you finally took the plunge.

To me OS 7.1 is great since my Telus BB plan includes free tethering through wifi hotspot as long as I am under my data limit.12-03-11 10:32 AMLike 0 - Heads up, orange switzerland still has the 540 all language up
https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads...56AC56F8953D2412-03-11 10:44 AMLike 0 - Phill_UKCrackBerry WiseguyI never had a bug in OS 7.1 and only thing is that some people(I didn't because I loaded the default setting using a back up) had to change the default font type to make the menu items work.
