- Updated yesterday. Havent noticed anything in regards to better battery life ... .yet.
However, this DID fix the issue that some users have been having with Vlingo and Bluetooth input... yeah!!!
Other than that.. there is some silly "Caller Name ID" app that I cant delete and it wont let me register it either... ack...
After re-registering everything and a few reboots, things seem to be running smoothly.. with no new glitches.. have yet to play with the media player much to see if that media resources issue is still present.03-02-12 06:15 PMLike 0 -

frequently hitting call button to get dialog box for find contact or recent call list will not bring up the keyboard (all versions OS since I got it, need to exit and go to contacts directly)

When I go to Custom Dictionary there is nothing displayed. It says * No Phrases *.
When I type something like "br" or "br" it tells me "the word already exists in the custom or built in dictionary". But there's no way to delete it or add it.
I can't even look at anything to SEE what's in there. This is ridiculous.03-09-12 07:56 PMLike 0 - Little confused. My Torch is showing 7.1.0 Bundle 457. This was a Verizon-approved download OTA. I guess this is a downgrade since it's bundle 267? Since it helps with Google Maps, that's a huge plus. It is a step back though, right?03-11-12 03:01 PMLike 0

The 457 you are referring to is the Bundle number which is not what the 267 refers too.
7.1.0.163 Bundle 457
This leaked version (official for Sprint and some others) is
7.1.0.267 Bundle 921
163 changes to 267
457 goes to 92103-13-12 12:22 PMLike 0 - This doesn't seem to work on a Torch 9850.

-seems MUCH MORE STABLE than 0.163 release
-Media player fixed (no more "can't allocate resources" after using any video/camera related app)
-the little time or hourglass icon actually spins again when phone is thinking.
-profile sounds appear to work correctly
-the send receive arrow doesn't stay on for long periods of time (use to get even if all radios were turned off whether really sending or receiving anything)
-Google maps voice search works now.
- no random screen freezes (as of yet)
-speaker phone is much louder (even playing youtube or media files)
-Bluetooth earpiece is much louder as well.
-the back button appears to close out apps that use to have to be closed using only the "close" option on the BB button.
-ALL my apps worked first time with no upgrades needed! (including Bank of America App)
issues I have found:
-battery seems to drain a bit more, but not a biggey to me in light of all the fixes above.
- the new "battery saving mode" (under Options> Device> ) cuts the right text off in portrait mode, but you can see it in landscape.(small issue), VERY cool to have this new feature. (actually, after I changed the font size, the text now appears in portrait mode.)
-I have NOT tried the mobile hotspot feature yet, but it is there (not disappeared as some have had happen)
-I am having MAJOR sms txting issues. Some broadcast messages don't show multiple recipients and other single messages (sending or receiving) show as broadcast messages, when in fact they were not. (verified by actually contacting others who sent or received)
So far, this appears to be the best build yet for my Torch, and I wholly recommend people download and install this OS before Verizon and Sprint Kill the phone all-together.Last edited by blenheimpalace; 03-29-12 at 08:40 AM.

Thanks
