Newest 9550 Storm2 OS v5.0.0.517 (Multilanguage)
- I'm so glad he got right on it. 517 alone was buggy as **** for me. My screen was unresponsive, click was really loud again, the clock was going on and on last night. I almost wiped it and went back to 451/548. Now my phone is nice and smooth again. In my case, there is a real difference between the straight "official" os & a hybrid.03-18-10 08:43 AMLike 0
- Hey guys!
I switched to a Tour a friend of mine gave me because I finally got so frustrated with the sticky bottom keys on my precious Storm 2 (and I'm not being sarcastic. I loved my S2). I've not called them about a replacement yet, but if this is a good fix, or temp fix, I'll switch back to my S2 and update the OS.
I'm still on the original .320. Worth the update and switch?
Bruce03-18-10 09:48 AMLike 0 - I read every message, but I did not see my concern addressed; does this release increase or help the signal strength & "lost call" problem? My signal meter is all over the place and at times I feel like I am on AT&T's network with drop calls! Does it seem to help in those areas?03-18-10 10:45 AMLike 0

Bruce03-18-10 12:07 PMLike 0 - Question - I've been using the Storm2 since it came out, but back on my old Storm I used to wipe with BBSAK and then install the new OS. I notice that with the S2, not all people are wiping anymore but rather just deleting vendor.xml and installing the OS.
I'm on BES so wiping is a huge pain in the **** for me. Can I get away with installing the new .517 on top of .320 without wiping?03-18-10 12:32 PMLike 0 - Question - I've been using the Storm2 since it came out, but back on my old Storm I used to wipe with BBSAK and then install the new OS.

I am on a BES server as well, and if you create a backup file in DM first, then you can do a complete wipe. Use apploader to update the OS, and then go back to DM and do a restore. This will allow the enterprise activation to initiate on its own, without having to get your IT department to reset your password.03-18-10 01:41 PMLike 0 - I'm on BES. I follow all the directions for deleting the vendor file, run the software, boot up desktop manager, plug in the phone and have never had it fail......make sure you go in and update all of your permissions after upgrading.....things run smoother.....some are reset to the default setting of "custom".....so far no glitches....03-18-10 02:06 PMLike 0

- It's available to bbhybrids.net VIP's right now. Meaning you buy a subscription and you'll have access to whatever as soon as it comes out. Eventually they're posted usually within a week w/o the subscription. At least thats my observation.03-18-10 02:57 PMLike 0

You will run the loader.exe from this same folder after you delete vendor. Right click on it and run as administrator if you have vista or win 7
