I guess you guys dont like noobs around here? I cant say I blame you but I have read and read and the more I read the more I read about this problem or that problem with these Hybrid OS so not knowing anything (at least I know I dont know) about this stuff I thought I would ask those who have gone before lol. My bad ill leave you in the know guys alone and see if I can find a site that has no problem helping out the noob. (if there is such a site) Then maybe I can ask questions that will get a answer? Later.

Just please consider that this section is for a phone that a lot of people have moved on from, and the activity is not so high that you'll get an immediate same-day response.
I guess I would suggest that you read the thread. Allegedly, Skunkd's Hybrid is VERY STABLE, and a lot of people are quite pleased with it. There is a pros/cons list on the first page, and it is technically still "beta." So, you might find a problem that someone else hasn't tripped on yet.
Personally, I intend to give the hybrid a whirl here soon.10-12-09 11:44 AM - My suggestion is to not embed your specific question (and introduction) into a long existing thread. It is easy to go over a new post which is kind of like hijacking the thread's intention. Start your own thread with your specific questions and you will probably get a response...and be patientI guess you guys dont like noobs around here?

I was just wondering if it correct cuz I haven't used a hybrid in a while, thanks Statyes, and if you want to check the version of any app, go to: options>advanced options>applications...menu>modules
10-12-09 02:22 PM - I just loaded the .169 Hybrid from post #249. So far so good. I'm not happy with my Shrink-An-OS config, but that is easy enough to redo.
I tried going to Options-> About, and the version info will not load from there. I wasn't sure if this was to be expected, or not. I checked in some other place, and it said predominantly 4.6.x. The ringer is super loud, and I can't really find anything else to remark on at this point. Some of my apps need fixing/reloading, but that's easy enough to do.
Thank you Skunkd for a wonderful alternative OS!10-13-09 08:23 AM - Gotcha. That was not standard knowledge for me, since I'm new to OS upgrades and hybrids. I'm guessing "VAD files" is the vendor xml thingy?
I've owned the phone for two years, and I just now linked up with a satellite using the GPS via BlackBerry Maps. I feel like I just got a brand new phone! 10-13-09 10:27 AM
