It may be dumb que...can I update this OS on my Sprint 9930??
yes.
if you're familiar with the process - you have to delete the vendor.xml file from the research in motion 'shared' folder before you try to update with apploader
It seems alright this update. Notice the NFC enabled in the top drop down. PTT also but I don't subscribe to that. It seems a little bit snappier. But I notice on the Verizon boot up screen, at the very bottom right corner there is what makes the screen look like, a blown pixel. Weird. No other screens throughout have that at all and I almost flipped. Anyone else, boot up and tell me if you see the same thing. I don't see it on any other backgrounds on that spot. Just the Verizon boot up logo screen.

successfully downloaded. haven't seen a problems so far. i cant wait to have a reason to use NFC. last week we heard that we will be able to swap info to other nfc BlackBerry users.
Just for those who didn't know... the above link is the official Verizon site for device software officially available. Obviously this update is not live yet.
While I'm looking forward to the update, specially the NFC and I don't know why, where am I going to use it? My only concern is that my battery life will get bad. I know a lot of you guys and gals have reported poor battery life. I am on the total opposite side of the spectrum. I get about 14 hours; started with about 10-12. I do use my BB a lot for music, surfing, email, text, FB, screen at 100% you get the point. I guess if BBM Music requires this update then I guess I will. We'll see, right? Peace.
Too early to tell on battery life. Give it a few days and then check back
Thank you for ur response..
Do you have meterberry?? U can tell an improvement almost immediately just from how much the phone is using the battery by using the app (I have mine updating every 30mins) and sitting idle it takes 2 baterry 'ticks' every 30mins. Mine currently is averaging around 3.5 - 4% discharge.

I've got the pixel thing on my VZW screen as well. Don't remember it from .353, though.
Thats actually good to hear. I almost flipped due to recieving my First Bold and I had to send it back for a defected pixel in the middle of the screen that screamend at me everytime I looked at it. Had to wait for like 4 days to get the replacement, so trust me. You guys saying that is good to know whew! lol
FYI, BlackBerry� Software Updates
