For the 9900 should we use the .alx files from RC5 full OS ?

I just copy past over java of the RC5B2. Everything else remained there (umts and alx files). And i didn�t deleted all cod. files from 5B2, just droped the new hybrid there.

Yes, this will be absolutely fine.

I have always previously deleted all Java files from the previous OS and only loaded the "new" Java files on their own.

Is this still OK with RC6 ?

I.E. Complete replace rather than over write

It is ok but this is a very shrunk java so if there is anything else you want you will need to install afterwards.

Remember all, this is an alpha release so still in testing.

Yeah, just been going through teh files and notice docs to go etc shrunk out.

Will follow Bold Always and paste over RC5B Java.

I feel its always better to copy & replace followed by a shrink as per your liking.

Hi, so like I just loaded the RC6 Alpha and I noticed that the radio app wasn't included how can I include it in the OS?

This java is to go over a fresh install of base.

If you wanna use the 714 leaked then use it.

We never said to delete the content of your java

you would be better nipping to rroyy.com and ota installing it. either that or you could find the cods and out them onto your phone but that is a bit more difficult.

To say that I'm a perfectionist would be an understatement. I was having a problem with my 9900 which I posted in another thread and someone suggested I try a Hybrid OS. Not knowing anything about it I came here and made my first post way back on 9/7/2012

Since then I've wiped my device and installed a Hybrid OS several times. The last one was last night when I installed RC5B2 over .523. After installing and getting everything setup I began re-installing my apps. I installed each app separately, configured it and did a battery pull. Although time consuming I feel it proved to be beneficial.

I was able to isolate 4 apps that caused an Uncaught Exception error.

7Digital Music Store - v1.5.37 - 9/8/2009
Call Blocker Professional - v5.25 - 6/10/2009
QuickLaunch - v4.2 - 3/12/2009
Volume Scheduler - v4.6.2 - 6/20/2011

After installing each app and doing a battery pull I received the UE so I uninstalled it and did another battery pull and no UE.

For now my 9900 is running great and I'll continue to monitor it the next couple of days.

My next challenge will be to install the next Hybrid right over what I have without wiping the device. It will save me a lot of time and hopefully there won't be any issues.

Again I want to thank everyone here for all the assistance I've received and hopefully I'll be able to contribute to the thread.

Yes, I agree with you 100 %....

Presume that there will be a full 9900 OS to follow at some point after some more testing and tweaking ?

[prithvi64]

RC6 either on .569 or .523 has nt been providing good signal and locking. I had to do twice OS installation today but ultimately had to come back to RC5B2.

We havent a full package for the 9900 yet but we are looking to see what we can do with the 649 radio to bring us up a bit.

I will create a Full OS package and provide a link.

Good luck with trying to get that .sfi not to melt the phone !!!!

Hopefully we will get a .714 .sfi for the 9900 some time soon.

I think they're still tinkering with some stuff, I'm always happy with the releases this team pumps out, no complaints here.

[ifraser]

I had no heat problems with 649, or now with 569 using the RC5 mixes.

The only issue was the rebooting after wifi connection as lost which we are trying to fix as well..

Here is a full OS download for the 9900 with .569 sfi file.

Who's complaining ??? Certainly not me !!!

BL team are simply the best out there IMO

Been using .714 with RC5B-2 and i've got to admit the battery drained much quicker than when i was using .523. The .649 was making my 9360 heat up. can anyone anyone using .569 give me any feedback on how their battery life's been?

[zocster]

Sounds like more experimental sfi being leaked. Hmmm RIM!

I did find the battery life quite good but 569 has been giving me better results although the radio strength was better with the higher one.

Sounds like you have to give a little just now.

That's the reason it fails to excite me whenever RIM releases a leaked OS, the more recent ones that i can remember is the .402 & .649 for the 9900/9790, which was crappy to say the least in more ways than one.

Let's hope that we get an Official release for 9900 so that Zocs and team can whip up some more magic, the kind which are used to getting over here.

so you finding .569 better than .523 ? as your device is different from mine will that still determine whether 569 may not actually be brilliant on my device?

RC6 either on .569 or .523 has nt been providing good signal and locking. I had to do twice OS installation today but ultimately had to come back to RC5B2.

Good news is that the leaked OS for 9860 has arrived so you can try a new base now.
