So rather than post a bunch of BS on how I'm now downloading or does it work. I got straight to business and began my trouble shooting. Here are my results:
1. Backed up Settings using DM
2. Backed up Apps Using BBSAK
3. Wiped Device Using BBSAK
4. Shrank Using BBHybridTools
5. Manually deleted unwated CODs (e.g. unwanted fonts, Startup Video, Backgrounds etc.)
6. Loaded OS using AppLoader.exe (everthing went smoothly as usual)
114MB of App Storage Left, 1st boot was not as quick as before. 2nd boot was faster.
As before I went ahead and recreated all the reasons why I went back to OS5. These were my findings:
1. Cursor still does not appear in SMS, Have not tried BBM. As others have mentioned, this may just be a feature of OS6. (9780 Users what is ur input on this) ((Phil_UK has confirmed this is not a present "Feature" on his 9780))
2. Sign In to Bank of Amercia still isnt possible. (I heard wells fargo newest app wasnt working properly in the previous build either. Perhaps it has something to do w/ security)
3. Bringing down the Notifications bar still lags the first time. then comes up right away after that. (This is completely bearable. I just read others complaining about this)
4. QuickLaunch V2.20.2 will now allow me to SMS. (This right here will make me stay using This Leak, I'm Pretty sure.) will Try newest version in a few to see if this is also the case (3.0 and 3.5 work the same)
5. Pasting of License Keys still isnt Possible using BB Menu. (I tried with Berry Weather and MeterBerry, I'm thinking this is also some security issue) Shift+TrackPad will paste text here after copying from another source..
6. The BB menu seems to have come back in 3rd Party Apps. Meaning you can now select pictures, files, contacts through 3rd Party apps. (Before BeWeather would not let me select a picture for my Background now it does. Before BerryBuzz would not allow me to select contacts to set custom led notifications now it does.) This will definitely make me stay using this version of OS6
7. The Social Feeds issue, you still have to scroll down, push space, or lock and unlock but after performing one of these the txt appears right away. (No biggy I can live with that.)
8. I'm adding this one because I find it strange that some are able to use it and others are not. Scanning QR Codes/Autofocus is not working for me.
Conclusion:
IMO this version was worth the upgrade since the apps that I use most often now seem to be fully compatibale with the OS. I think I will be sticking with this leak. Hopefully an official release will solve my BofA issue.
Still to early to report on Memory Leaks or Battery Behavior will come back after a couple of days of testing this.. Follow UP
- The missing cursor in bbmsn, sms...
- I had problems with third party apps like socialscope, ubertwitter and berryweather when trying to attach photos to tweets or applying pictures to my weather background..
- Do you still have to click the volume buttoms like 5 times to start volume up/down your videos/music??...
EDIT: WELL SEEMS LIKE mkye86 HAS ALL FIGURED OUT ALREADY! THANKS MAN! GODDAMM IT WITH FREAKING CURSOR...

I think I covered some of that in my above post.. I have not tried Twitter or Social scope. But the Berry Weather issue is fixed which leads me to beleive that you are now able to Invoke the BB menu in 3rd party apps and select pictures or files to tweet and such..
Cursor issue may not be a bug since present in all 3 builds. (Rather a very annoying new feature) 9780 Users or better yet Phil what is your input on this LOL

Cursor is and always has been present in SMS on the 9780, can't say for BBM though as I don't use it.
Nice review btw

I have real issues with the "favorites" bar on the homescreen.
For example when i add something to my favorites, it appears 3-4x on the favorites bar, and if i delete one of them, all of them disappear immediatly . Never had this strange problem before ..

Ok I'm up and running. I have Tmobile but I forgot to delete those Tmobile theme files. Seems to be working fine but then again what would I notice seems to be running fine.
You mean you didn't have to remove them and still didn't get any troble? Meaning you don't have to do that anymore?

About to shrink the OS before loading, but Shrink-an-OS is not shrinking the file. I am now using a Win7 64-bit PC. Is there any special setting in SAOS that I need to change or select?
