04-30-09 01:21 AMLike 0 - Seems they might have fixed this in a "hybrid"
Although, I'm not much into running Hybrids, so I hope it's just an issue with this build, and not what is to come.
Otherwise, I'm hoping QL's dev can help out..04-30-09 01:22 AMLike 0 - Well, CheetahAce asked me how QL gets fixed but his PM box is full so:
use my Shrink-A-OS program
http://www.theiexplorers.com/bb/Shrink-A-OS.exe or
http://www.theiexplorers.com/bb/Shrink-A-OS.rar
you can either Browse and choose their 141 Install folder or you can check the box underneath it and put it the .exe in your 141 install folder. then you click Fix Quick Launch and update your phone when it says done.
(You can also fix the Lock button with this app)
OR
other method is keep these three files from 132 on top of your 141 install:
net_rim_cldc.cod
net_rim_bb_apps_framework.cod
net_rim_cldc_io_impl.cod04-30-09 01:24 AMLike 0 - i used a .132/.141 hybrid earlier and same issue existed. was hoping when i did the 9530 .141 install issue would be gone. its not. sucks , i like quicklaunch.04-30-09 01:26 AMLike 0
- Thanks but if this is going to be an upcoming thing with something RIM has changed, I'd expect cheetah to fix the issue with quick launch and not for us to make a hybrid
So, again. I hope this is specific to this leaked OS and not upcoming into the future builds04-30-09 01:27 AMLike 0 - Well, CheetahAce asked me how QL gets fixed but his PM box is full so:

I uninstall os from my pc and wipe my storm. Then use your latest ShrinkOS to do the job. Same result.
Or should I try crackutil to remove 3 files from my storm and put the files from .132?
Thanks for your help04-30-09 06:48 AMLike 0 -
I dunno why its not working otherwise :S04-30-09 06:52 AMLike 0 - Lyricidal, this may either be bug in the OS or QL may need to be updated for newer OS. The whole .cod changing is a temporary fix.
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com04-30-09 08:10 AMLike 0 - ok just tried the quicklaunch fix for a 4th time. no go. did everything that lyricidal said and im still stuck. hopefully in a week or so a new leak will come out and fix it. i hope. anyway thnx for all your help i know everyone tried.04-30-09 11:54 AMLike 0

been trying to figure out what files to replace. Lyricidal and I came up with the fix you've been seeing on the forum. However it has a low success rate. Other attempts try to try to use files form 132 to correct this have fail to this point.04-30-09 04:50 PMLike 0 -
just found a post from cheetah in another thread and here is what he has to say in regards to QL 2.0:
It will have the flicker with .141. I don't have .141 so I won't be addressing this soon. Not sure I can do anything about it. There is a 141 hybrid fix for this out there somewhere on CB. The issue is only with 141 and rim is going to 5.0 soon so I'm not sure I want to devote a lot of time to counteracting the bugs in 141 when a new leak will come again soon that doesn't have the issue and then I'd have to modify the code again.04-30-09 04:50 PMLike 0 - I suggest going from 132, Shrink-A-OS or change the files of your 141 install, then install to phone.
Thats the way people I have talked to have had most success (as the downgrade way seems to fail)
Also, I suggest CrackUtiling the files, as that seems to Force Load the files04-30-09 05:02 PMLike 0 -
and basically his ql 2.0 won't be worth sh!t if it doesn't work on .141 or future OS leaks.. He'll come around..Everyone does when there is loss of revenue.04-30-09 05:17 PMLike 0 - I haven't gone to .141 solely because of this issue. Somebody please try to describe exactly what QL is doing on .141. I know it flickers. Some have said it still works. Does it still work even though annoying? Please try to describe the flicker. Extremely fast? Menu items are difficult to push? I haven't seen anyone describe in any detail what it is doing. Just that it flickers and "doesn't work".
Thanks.04-30-09 05:27 PMLike 0 - I haven't gone to .141 solely because of this issue. Somebody please try to describe exactly what QL is doing on .141. I know it flickers.

it flickers at a rate of 2 -3 times per second. like a strobe light. Its hit and miss when you try to select something... I don't see how anyone can say it is still usable. It's not...04-30-09 05:31 PMLike 0 -
I've also read in the .141 finding thread, that replacing the files has bricked a lot of Storms. I'm just not in the mood for that.04-30-09 05:37 PMLike 0
