i just downloaded 5.0.0.419 and it still says 1XEV in the top right corner. Why doesnt it say 3G? Please help! I know it might be weird but I really want it to say 3G!
because verizon is EVDO. if you want 3g get a GSM phone. CDMA is more like 2.75G you can't use data and voice simultaneously.
god i cant believe i wiped before backing up my apps. i lost all my apps and themes !!! went to restore the backups i did on DM just to realize it doesn't actually do a backup from the apps !!! damn!!!!!!
So...What exactly updated? I don't get why it says .238 if it's actually just .230?
If it says .238, you are probably running a hybrid of .230. My educated guess would be Irtehun's version 7.11. Mine used to say something similar back when I was running the hybrid.
Does anyone have any step by step suggestion or explanation of how I can regain the Password Saver? It was gone after the upgrade. I know I did not miss it when I installed the OS because I went over the checklist with a fine tooth comb. I use the Password saver pretty extensively. Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Preliminary Findings
The Good: Snappy, fast, and with none of the bugs that plagued .230. Radio is stable, reboot time is approximately 6 minutes, no issues with the media player, Viigo works, battery life is at least as good as 4.7, and will probably get better as it adjusts to the cycle, etc.
The bad: Some of my favorite apps are not working: Nimbuzz (won't get past the sign-in screen). Google sync also gets stuck signing in, voice dial doesn't work, and after every battery pull, I get an e-mail re-registering me on the Blackberry network, which is kind of annoying. More to come...
