Do you mean BBMaps icon? There is no GPS icon I can recall ever seeing. The BBMaps icon should be there, unless the lbs ribbon didn't load.

- Anyone notice that when you go to look at a contacts phone number by pressing the trackpad, it dials the number instead of viewing the number....?04-22-10 11:19 PMLike 0

- Well, I tried this for a while and its not for me. I had 2 major issues with it:
#1 Im already in a low signal area so I was used to occasionally dropping calls but since updating my signal quality is WAY worse than what it was not to mention the call quality is so bad its appalling. I can barely even hear ppl bc its cutting out so bad.
#2 (and this may be minor to some) but I play music on my BB regularly, since the update everytime Im playing music if I get a text or facebook alert it automatically pauses my music until I go back into the media player and restart it. Thats very annoying considering I get about 200 FB alerts daily. It didnt do that with my prev software so back to downgrade I go. Good luck to everyone else.04-23-10 05:48 AMLike 0 -

- This firmware is simply amazing on my BlackBerry. Speedy browser, stable 2G and 3G. Memory is holding as it always had, around the 106MB mark.
Unlikely I will be changing to a newer firmware until OS 6.0 or webkit browser becomes available. If its not broke, don't think it.
Now if only Shazam would get off their arses and fix their application.
It will work with .566/.593 now.04-23-10 10:56 AMLike 0 - Well, I tried this for a while and its not for me. I had 2 major issues with it:

Mine plays on right thru texts, yahoo and BBM messages... I dont have facebook to test that one.04-23-10 10:56 AMLike 0 - I figured it out. I was using the hold (green) call button to pull up the contacts. When I changed the left conv key to contacts, its able to view the numbers by clicking the trackpad.04-23-10 11:00 AMLike 0

I thought it was a setting too but I looked in every setting section I cud think of and nothing changed it. For whatever reason os .593 doesnt like me. It did do a nice thing and give me auto preview of my text just by mousing over the icon so I will miss that and it was faster data, I cud even get over the music thing, but the call quality was just too bad to tolerate. I downgraded back to .586 and have made several calls and quality is good again so....I dunno. Guess I'll wait for the next os upgrade and cross my fingers04-23-10 04:36 PMLike 0 - Hey, so I tried searching the thread and was unable to find an answer, but with BES and personal email, are they in the same inbox or a different one? I'm on .351 as it has two separate inboxes. I get like 200 emails on my work's BES email a day, and also have my personal email on my phone, so it's REALLY important to me to have the inboxes separate. I know that a release shortly after .351 did not have separate inboxes, so I didn't upgrade, but I decided it's time to get with the times and upgrade if there are two separate inboxes.
Thanks!04-23-10 07:32 PMLike 0 - I've run this OS for a week now. These are the issues I've had:
1. Signal reception is very, very bad. Mine changes occasionally to gprs instead of GPRS (sometimes it even goes to GSM), so I can't connect to the internet or use BBM. When I'm in a bad signal area, the signal is lost and when I go back to a good signal area, I have to restart the phone (turning off and on again via "manage connections" doesn't work), although a battery pull is not necessary. This is the most annoying issue ever.
2. Startup time takes forever. I did a battery pull yesterday, and the phone started up in 7 (seven) minutes.
3. Battery life isn't great. When it's fully charged, the battery drains quickly. But then the rate slows down. I've never experienced a flat battery in one day although I use the phone almost all the time, but the battery meter worries me.
Aside from those issues, this is a great build. Everything is faster, and it fixes the "black screen with clock" issue on .545.04-23-10 09:03 PMLike 0
