Hi Everyone,
RIM Change Logs suck monkey's a$$ and we all know every update brings tons of little changes, improvements and sometimes bugs that are not told to us officially by RIM but we slowly find them and report them.
With every update we get at least 10 different threads with findings and questions, etc. Not a single one of them has a good overview of what it brings and if it does, it's buried deep inside the thread so people have to read pages and pages of useless posts to try and fish any kind of usefull information. This is the main reason we get so many threads, people cant find the info they are looking for...
I mean, just look at the main thread for 1.0.7 (the one linked from the main page blog article), what's the first post? ".................."
We are a big community here with tons of very helpfull people, we need to get organized! Mods, please help, we can have volunteers to open a good thread for each release and then as people post inside summarize within the first post with a good structure (New Features, Side Fixes, Bugs, Notes, Etc.)
I work 14 hours a day so I don't have much time for this but I am sure there is a lot of people in this community more than willing to do it.
How do we do it? Someone who is willing to takle this task please create a good summary of changes found so far for 1.0.7, with a link to that manual someone found, etc. Create a new thread and then MODs, please merge all the 1.0.7 threads inside that one.
What do you guys think? can we get organized here?Last edited by Lumute; 07-19-11 at 09:37 AM.

One oddity following upgrade is that while Blackberry Bridge apps appear on the "All" screen, and seem to be working fine, the "Blackberry Bridge" screen is empty, and I can't copy the Bridge apps from the "All" screen to the "Blackberry Bridge" screen.07-19-11 12:29 PM - You can delete apps without getting a stupid update notification. I am sorry but that alone is going to eliminate a dozen or so NEW threads on this forum alone. I am sure the servers, admins and moderators would be happy about that.
You can delete a saved VPN connection.
You can delete a saved wifi connection. It is great not seeing the Home Depot, Wegmans, Staples, etc saved connections.
Oh an I can have my wifi turned on AND my Airplane Mode on at the same time.
07-19-11 12:37 PM - Lol, no no no, guys, the whole idea of this thread was to discuss getting organized in general and finding a way to make it easy for people to find info about new releases, not to start discussing specific changes in 1.0.7 or problems with those changes...
I was kind of hoping an initiative from someone to sumarize all those findings into the fist post of a new thread! and MODs to merge all similar threads into that one, and then follow that example and do the same for every release...Last edited by Lumute; 07-19-11 at 02:41 PM.
