- Um I don't know what are you trying to say but I've had that feature for both searches (phone apps n web search) and I've just checked it works pretty well and it was there even before os 7.1 came08-21-12 09:24 AMLike 0
- Installed this yesterday and noticed something this morning. Not sure if this has been the case on all builds, but when I digitally zoom in when taking a picture with the camera, the picture size decreases. So, a fully zoomed in picture ends up being 640x480 despite my camera being set to take large pictures (2560x1920).
I've never noticed this before and never really looked into it to be honest. I only happened to notice it today when I took a picture that was fully zoomed in and proceeded to email it. I was not prompted to choose a size to reduce it to when sending it as it was already very small.
Is this something that's been in place for a while and I have just not noticed?
EDIT: Apparently, this is the way it works and has worked for quite some time.

I'm quite surprised. This isn't a zoom, it's a crop.Last edited by shabbs; 08-21-12 at 12:18 PM. Reason: Found answer to my question.

The media player issue, whereby pausing a song and unpausing will cause the music to become 'tinny' - that is bass drops out entirely - is there anyone who has had this issue, that can now confirm it is fixed?

Also quick question, when shrinking an OS, when removing the fonts, what function/capability exactly does this remove from the phone?08-21-12 02:01 PMLike 0 - I know it's a bug, and since I assume you wiped completely clean before loading without restoring a backup at all, it was the same way, read only autotext right? Before I load this, I'll need this clarification, if you or anyone has done so.08-21-12 02:05 PMLike 0
- And I just upgraded to the previous offical OS.
Oh well.
subscribed and will monitor the feedback.

- I loaded this yesterday from Sprint's official 580, signal for me has been terrible as I have been roaming all day at home where 580 I had 3 bars at home. Going back to 580. YMMV.

And when you shrink the OS and remove fonts, it just REMOVES fonts (Example: Arial, sans comic, times new roman) which ever you dont wanna install on to your phone, but basically you just can't remove the default ones or i don't think that would even work
In short, if you aren't a fan of changing themes and fonts like i'm not, shrink/remove them even if you don't do that i don't think it takes much of space at all, like inside 20 kb fonts, each.08-21-12 04:06 PMLike 0 - Installed this yesterday and noticed something this morning.

How ever when you zoom it, it decreases the size and quality
So that's okay08-21-12 04:10 PMLike 0 -
What baffles me is that I have only just noticed this now. Heh heh.
Back on topic, so far this OS has been fine for me. No issues with any of my nearly 40 apps...08-21-12 04:25 PMLike 0 - Heh. I don't think that's OK, but maybe that's just me. A true zoom (whether it be optical or digital) should re-size the cropped picture to the full dimensions. Every picture you take whether or not it is zoomed should end up the size you specify in your settings.

Now if there was an optical zoom, the lense would physically move forward, the resolution would stay the same, and you would capture more data vs. the same (digital), but cropped. This isn't something that is specific to BlackBerry. I don't know of any smartphone that offers an optical lense. If they did, the phone as a whole would not be as slim and the lense would be detrimental to the battery since it would add another moving, mechanical part.

For sure, no doubt. I'll leave my serious pics to my Canon EOS 7D + EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS II USM lens.

Also if you use Docs2Go for presentations, you'll need to keep the Times font as that is used as default in Slideshows. All the other fonts can be removed without any problems.zocster likes this.08-22-12 12:33 AMLike 1

And good to hear that you don't have any issues at all after installing dozens of apps
And I can't believe it yet another release and direct sunlight issue exists for me08-22-12 03:23 AMLike 0 - The OS I quoted in my previous post. I am back to running the official 580 from Sprint with all the garbage shrunk out of it. This left me with an OS that was only 100MB where the original was approximately 280MB. If I shrink out the fonts, it brings it down to 82.16MB per my tweet sent from BBH when it was completed.
I personally don't shrink OS I just don't install apps I don't want, everything else is fine and I've noticed that this release doesn't lags over app or switching app which is good08-22-12 03:33 AMLike 0
