- I've been running .419 for a few days and WB and BB Browser are definitely quicker to load than in .328. Pop up keys are nice as well.
One small problem that I have noticed. I use the "Today" Layout as I like to view Calendar and tasks on my home screen, even though it only shows the next two items. The problem is that Tasks are no longer showing up, just Calendar events. If I go in to my Calendar the Tasks are listed but they do not show on the home screen.
Anyone else notice this?12-24-09 02:23 PMLike 0 - I learned a little trick a while back that can help everyone with quickpull issues.
1) Delete quickpull, you dont need it.
2) Hit green send button on phone and dial ##000000 hit green send button.
3) Scroll down to SIP Password:
4) Enter vzw
5) Click BB button and click save.
Phone will reset. No need for quickpull anymore.
Also, in reply to the earlier post by Brummer, I think it was shown a while back that many people can get different results on their devices. Just because one person sees an issue and another person doesn't see it, doesn't mean that they are idiots that cannot follow instuctions. Case in point, I've also followed those same instructions every time and have never had an error or problem when loading a new OS, but I do have speed dial issues that several other people have reported as well. So a lot of factors from specific applications loaded, to number of applications loaded, to custom themes vs. default theme, etc. can play a part in what issues can crop up on different devices with the same OS version.
User error can be very common, but generalizing that others, with issues that you don't have, are idiots is just plain obnoxious. It's very nice for you that your phone works almost perfectly, but there are still issues in this OS that need to be addressed by RIM and cannot be blamed on plain user error.12-24-09 02:27 PMLike 0 - Change the swipe sensitivity one step lower. If you drag your finger even the slightest it registers as a down swipe and the keyboard drops. Maybe making it less sensitive might help. Worked for me
Also if you are having so many issues you might wanna reload. I don't have ANY of the problems ur having. Bad install maybe?

Anyone else experiencing this?

Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com12-24-09 07:59 PMLike 0 - I am probably going back to .328 as this is what I have noticed:
GPS seems to locate faster better for weatherbug, google maps, etc.
Memory management maybe slightly improved
Dimming bug seems to be resolved.
Issues clicking text web links in messages seems to be corrected
4.7 themes work better having black bars in landscape instead of white and having no tearing of icons when scrolling.
Voice Dialing is better
I don't really care for pop up keys or the new glow either way
Multi touch typing gone
Keyboard keeps hiding all the time when typing quickly in the browser
Speed Dial is hosed with only a few working and voicemail dialing on 9 instead of 1

What is multi touch typing? I don't seem to miss it...
But Speed dial... that one really pisses me off, since I use it all the time.12-24-09 11:48 PMLike 0 - does anyone facing problem with the call waiting????

The only issue that I really have is the screen dimming, still there even when I have the setting turned off.
BTW, I'm running the straight exe .419 pre-shrunk.
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com12-25-09 02:54 AMLike 0 - Like I just posted in your thread, I am too...Seems like we're the only two...I'm about to flip out it just happened again so I hadda make an account on xmas eve...Can't delete the merged message, have to go into desktop manager and clear the SMS database.....What bull****

- Loaded .419 on my 9530 and it is working great. Yes the voice dial is working now, something I missed in .328.
Overall I like the changes since I purchased the Storm in October. The old 4.0.0 which came with the unit was junk! These 5.0 updates have made my Storm a usable piece of hardware.
- Memory is steady
- Berryweather works great
- Music and videos play perfect.
- The download was flawless.
- I like the bigger blue glow and pop-up text.
- SMS not defaulting opening up with the keyboard is a great idea.
Please keep improving the OS!
Thanks to all!12-25-09 12:14 PMLike 0 - I'm not sure if this is a new feature but when I was using sms to text someone, I received a little pop up with a message from one of my friends who sent me a text while I was typing. It had his message and the name of who sent the text. Thought that was pretty cool.

I dock my Storm every evening and put in in Bedside mode (I use it in my bedroom as an alarm clock). I am on the .419/.428 hybrid and have not experienced a problem with Bedside Mode. The phone dims and the radio turns off.12-25-09 06:22 PMLike 0 - I'm having the same issue.....I would REALLY like to get it fixed! Anybody know anything to do to remedy this error or can explain to me what is happening (in dumb guy terms of course)12-25-09 07:10 PMLike 0
