Leaked OS 7.1.0.205 for BlackBerry Bold 9900 Findings and Fixes (
- This build so far has been excellent, averaging 3% discharge, moderate use including emails, texts, few calls as well. However, since installing this build my GPS seems as though it can't aquire any satallites, I am on Vodafone UK, was wondering if anyone else running this build and on the same network is having the same problem. Got a feeling I may have shrank it out of the build, cannot check untill tonight though.
I haven't had any problems with GPS. All works fine.01-22-12 02:22 PMLike 0 - im having an issue getting the loader to detect the install of the new OS, followed the steps and done everything the way ive done it before for leaked betas and still not able to get it to take. however this is my first time on the 9900, all other betas ive put on were with my 9700 and 9800. any advice?01-22-12 03:02 PMLike 0
- Anyone know why my gmail won't work anymore? It keeps saying that my password or username are incorrect/don't match, and I assure you they are correct. Thanks!01-22-12 04:24 PMLike 0
- bettery life for some reason terrible...sunday used to last all day now battery is down to 30% after 3 hours...anyone else have this? any ideas...i've pulled the battery at least 5 times to see if that would matter...last nite same thing after i loaded it...lost the whole thing in 4 hours...
That is normal bue cause you should wait a few days for the battere to settle.01-22-12 04:57 PMLike 0 - After a day use these are my observations:
-fast browser with six to seven different websites with Flash, ASP, PHP, etc based sites open with no errors or issues
-According to app Managenment:
5 min Facebook
2 min email (about three emails today)
1 min if Twitter
3 min hotspot
No phone calls, but a lot of browser on H+ Telus network
battery drain 2.6% to 3.5% /hour with only 1.1 MB memory loss (I don't know if I call it memory leak because technically it could just a memory loss)
I am impressed!
I am very happy with it.01-22-12 10:16 PMLike 0 - I upgraded a few days ago and my phone is now being so mean to me.
For one, my battery life now SUCKS. Damn phone is always dying! I can't make it through a full without having to charge up again. This is just texting and some web browsing. Its ridiculous. It dies at night if I dont charge it while I'm sleeping. It essentially just always dies.
second, it messes up my phone calls. I'll try to check a text or look at something on phone while on a call.... and then I just can't here the other person. I try to end the call and call em back to fix the problem... nope! I get an Operation Failed when I try to call em back. And then I can't send any texts. So I have to a soft reset. Its really frustrating.
Just some issues I've run into since the install.01-22-12 10:20 PMLike 0 - Ok guys so I finally figured out why was my browser closing my browsing pages whenever I tried to password lock it, I actually activated Encryption option in security (which I have no idea why and what is it for). As soon as I cancelled Encryption option from security, browser stopped closing my pages on password locking the device so definitely no bug but some sort of security measurement due Encryption \=D/mssca likes this.01-22-12 10:30 PMLike 1

I am currently on 7.0 bundle 2395 v7.0.0.579 after upgrading via BB website few days back. Now I am curious as to using a leaked version.
What do I expect (At least, the Top 3 please) to get from this latest leaked one coming from what I have right now?

- Been using this for three days now. I have to say that this is really stable. Only issue that I am having is the audio loss while on a call, only way to fix it is a reboot.
Battery Drain is 3.28% and no memory leaks.

- 5 days on this build. No issues at all except once when my berry acted lil weird as I couldn't listen to the caller nor was he able to hear me. Thought it's a network issue but when same thing happened with continued incoming calls, I did a battery pull and ever since then, this problem never repeated. Hopefully it wont ever as I'm happy with the battery life and performance of this OS.
What I experienced is that the battery drains faster if exposed to colder places. I had to remain at a sight for about an hr at a temp of -2C and my phone's battery drain was at 17% on meterberry.01-23-12 03:28 PMLike 0 - 5 days on this build.
