Newest 9550 Storm2 OS v5.0.0.517 (Multilanguage)
- The only issue I have seen is that with the Password protection feature turned on it will not activate when pushing the lock button. The screen lock activates but not the security lock. All other ways work like the timed feature or rebooting the device or pushing the lock icon on the screen. Just not the lock button at the top of the device. Anybody ideas about this? And yes I have done numerous battery pulls. Lol.

- This is great. Of all the releases I've tried I really like this one. I only had one glitch with font before a battery pull. But everything is so much smoother and faster. My computer asked for a restart to finalize installation. After that I ran setup again to repair the install. Did remove anything and then ran the installation through bbsak. Loaded without a hitch. Love it. Wish I could get something just as good but official from vzw.

- After long long time, there was update os for 9550, so I could not resist myself . Downloaded timmeditaely and installed .517 today morning. OS is very stable. Radio sems to be much better. Clicking on screen has been improved a lot compare to .451. Let me check whether screen still freezes after long duration calls or has it been addressed in this build. I have been noticing that whenever I used to have long duration (something like more than 5 min), screen use to be freezed for some time (1-2 min) and then it becomes normal.03-17-10 11:50 PMLike 0

thanks.03-18-10 12:30 AMLike 0 - I'm aware of Bootcamp..... but that'd require finding a copy of Windows to install too, though. I'd have to ask around, and for some reason I think I'd feel weird doing that when I'm relatively new to this area. (Anyone have a copy? Or know how to unlock a pirated one? Lol.)03-18-10 01:34 AMLike 0
- If this OS is as good to my S2 as their 4.5.0.173 was on my old Pearl I'm going to be one happy camper, having to wait till later is killer lol

Sasktel also rents there hardware to Telus and Bell, they haven't upgraded to HSPA+ yet and that is why there is no HSPA+ coverage in sask and man in Canada.
ps Installing the new OS now, as i start my drinking, happy St. Pattys Day!

get bbsak or blackberry MCP (Master control program)
do a full 3rd party app backup
This is just in case... when installing, loader will ask if you want to back up (select yes) - incase something goes wrong you already have a nice full backup (including themes - which do not restore after)
in control panel Uninstall old OS (if installed)
Install new OS (Reboot if prompted.. i had to)
go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
and delete vendor.xml
then run loader.exe and follow the instructions... (It should say update next to core apps)
enjoy!03-18-10 08:25 AMLike 0
