- incredible! the best yet!
yes the babylon sample video seemed jerky on playback, but video i took with the storm and video i ripped from a dvd and put on there played smooth and fine.
i also noticed my avail. memory went UP after it had been in use for a while - now 49MB which is the most i've EVER had free.02-14-09 10:54 PMLike 0 -

There are at least ewight places in this thread that tell you how. Just use search.02-15-09 12:13 AMLike 0 - I upgraded from .75 straight to .103.
I notice some things work faster now, but I only have two gripes thus far.
1.) WMV format videos play real choppy
2.) When I attach some photos from my device memory or memory card to MMS, they send as a solid colored block. The same thing happens when I forward them. Oddly, if I take a photo with the camera built into the storm, the photo sends via MMS with no issues.
I do a lot of MMS'ing, so this is a huge issue for me.02-15-09 12:39 AMLike 0 - Ok so, I haven't read this for about a day but has anyone found this? When I get a call or a text and I silence it while in the holster, the phone goes to the vibrate profile. I have replicated this so it's definitely not a fluke...anyone else find this? I think it's pretty neat personally. :-)02-15-09 01:07 AMLike 0
- When I hit the voice command button it's a crapshoot. Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it takes a few seconds, but most of the time it locks my phone up for at least 6-8 minutes (unless I pull the battery) with the screen staying white with the "initializing, please wait" thing at the top. Anyone else???? So this and the graphics are my two big gripes with .103.02-15-09 02:01 AMLike 0
- This was my first time ever doing something like this and I went from .75 to .103 with no problem. Followed the instructions to the letter. There is another thread on installing it and there may be some help there.02-15-09 06:52 AMLike 0
- Left my Storm all night without AC adaptor. Battery ran down from 80% last night to around 70%. Seems to be the same under .103 as .75.02-15-09 06:54 AMLike 0
- so far, 103 is great, except a couple minor(?) glitches...
the other night, I was out and about and I checked my phone, where the signal strength is usually located, was "SOS" in red, and there was a note on the screen that my SIM card was invalid (it's the Telus supplied roaming card - doesn't have any effect when I'm in Canada or the US).
I did a battery pull, and when the reboot finished, everything was back to normal - about 30 minutes later, it happened again. Another battery pull, and it hasn't happened since.
it is a lot quicker/nicer than .76, and the full keyboard in vertical is awesome once you get used to it02-15-09 07:14 AMLike 0 - Made the jump from .75 to .103.
Has anyone noticed that the screen lock now functions like standby. In .75 when I hit the screen lock the screen would fade but when I hit it again it would display the fact that the screen is locked. In .103 it does nothing. Is it just me or does anyone else notice this.

Berry411 or beyond411 (whatever you want to call it)
on .75 i was able to use it in portrait or landscape now on .103 it only stays in portrait no matter how many times I turn it or give it time. I even uninstalled it, did a battery pull and re-installed it.
Not really a big deal but just wanted to see if anyone else had this
Thanks02-15-09 08:37 AMLike 0 - Same thing happened to me and only resolved it by getting tech help from my provider (Bell). They had me delete all of the items except PROVISIONING in the "Service book" in advanced options and then pushed the services from their end. I got my browser back and other OTA features that had disappeared. 103 now works great and I am totally pleased with the upgrade.
I can actually take pictures now without having brace my arm on something.Last edited by Soupmeister; 02-15-09 at 09:08 AM.
02-15-09 09:04 AMLike 0 - I've had OS .103 now for around 8 hours. During the first four I saw a noticeable memory decrease but since I activated the garbage cleaner it's been holding strong at 40.1.
Being new to Blackberry I didn't realize all the complications it would present after the install, I had to delete my gmail account and add the filter back in for example, but all in all I'm very pleased with this as opposed to .75.
Sorry if this is in the wrong place, but whats a "garbage cleaner"?02-15-09 09:05 AMLike 0 -
I know there's a lot to read here, but search for and read the items for your issue at least, instead of adding the same thing to it again.
I'm sorry to sound ishty but for those of us that do read these threads, it gets old quick.02-15-09 09:19 AMLike 0 - Ok so, I haven't read this for about a day but has anyone found this?

Although it may be convenient asking general questions here clutters things up. Some people get PO'ed and just 'attack', others forget where they came from and that none of us were born with the knowledge we've accumulated. I will say though that you need skin almost as thick as needed for Linux/UNIX forums to ask technical questions and be ready to get answers to your question with questions and then no answer after you answer what should be the obvious, like, "I am running 106 for the 9500 and I have a problem with XXX when I'm in Spain.", be ready for, "Are you using a 9500? Are you in Spain?" Like I said, Linux/UNIX. I'm so tempted to jump in and say, "No, he's running a 8300 in Russia and can't figure out why he can't get service!"02-15-09 09:31 AMLike 0
