.421 feels slower than my last OS (351 i think)
for me .421 the battery life is the best, i cant believe how much of a difference this OS has made on the Battery life, I am down to under 2.0% per hour according to MeterBerry
Forget this buggy leak and get ready for .423! should be here soon. I hope it's the same build as .405 and not .371/.415/.421.
why not just use .405 if you liked it so much?
I will until I find a better leak than .405. Who doesn't want improvements? I want nothing but improvements and not add more bugs to the previous version. Less bugs and improvements and I am in! .405 is not perfect but it has way less bugs than these builds and if .423 will fix those and bring new stuff that's the time.
This OS version has issues with custom themes. Reverie worked fine on .296 but is not liked at all by .421. It is very strange but I was getting an error in the phone app after every reboot until I deleted the Reverie Theme. I did not know that themes could would/could effect applications like that but once I uninstalled it, no more error. Also, it seems that the minor lag I was experiencing in contrast to .296 is gone now that I remove my custom themes.
You are right as I posted before to give people heads up, this os version is not third party theme friendly. I wonder if it's the new theme options layout, if that's the case I hope it's fixed on .423 or otherwise bring back the old laout that worked before!
im running a third party theme with no problems
found another SMS name issue, when you have one SMS message open and another one comes in it shows up at the bottom (like a message in BBM would when you are typing to someone else) however it shows up as the number and not the name
and the linked contacts to BBM dont seem to work the same way, when a BBm contact is linked and they send you a SMS it does go to BBM anymore it comes in like a normal SMS
I'm having no issues with 3rd party themes...
+1 :)
No problems whatsoever with 3rd party themes on .421
No lag, and certainly no 'ugly trails'
.405 was OK for me, but it was a 'step backwards' build with too many old features
.415 had a terrible radio for Vodafone in the UK, hardly any reception at all causing very poor battery life
.421 is pretty much perfect for me, with no bugs or issues and great signal strength, hence better battery life
No problems here.
This has happened to me with every 5.0 OS I've used (on several devices) with threaded SMS.
Not major... but it is annoying :mad:
Look at it as a kind of 'preview feature' for new texts ;)
Honestly .415 and .421 seem about the same for me minus a few mbs of application memory with .421

That was an issue in .415 as well. I hardly ever have that happened so it's not a huge issue.
I was on .421 for a few days and noticed a renewed rash of "call failed" that I hadn't had on.405. I did a test: called myself, left it connected, then sent myself an email, and .421 dropped the call to receive the email (I'm on BIS, not BES). Did this several times to see if it was repeatable, and it happened every time. I then did a full wipe with JL, reloaded .405, repeated the same conditions, saw the emails come in, and the call didn't drop, repeatedly. I'm sticking with .405 for now...
You got it! :p Remember when we'd upgrade to get something positive, like HTML and video? What's the point now? All you get is a memory leak where there wasn't one. I think I'll wait until an upgrade offers something. I'll stick with .330 with it's no dropped calls, solid WiFi and 3g , just a all round stable OS.

ah ok it never happened to me before so i wasnt sure if this was a .421 thing o not, agree its not really a big issue, but it should show the name not the number, would be nice
It is there under inbox settings.... choose what shows up in your inbox...
Add the latest version of BerryWeather and Bing to my list. No issues for me. The one thing I would like to see is concerning SMS. SMS is not threaded so why not at the thread listing have the option to forward an entire thread via email?
where is possible find berryweather for os 5?
whats the difference between the different firmwares? why should i upgrade from my stock firmware? please some feedback im trying to decide wether to upgrade or not
I don't think there is one.... Just 4.6 and above. If you purchase it, update notifications are on by default.

Add WiFi - I must say it is really fast! I have never played with this before until today.
I just tested this and the call stayed connected.
