The next official OS for Storm 2 9550 will be .591. .607 is not going to the official OS. The push will begin in a couple of days. Sadly I don't know what day specifically but it will be next week.
My source is not important, believe me or not that your choice.
so here is the 64 thousand dollar question: what SPECIFICALLY is better (and worse) about 591?
That's a good question. I didn't know that .591 for 9550 existed. It reminds of when .320 leaked for 9530 and the .328 was official for VZW and NO ONE heard of it. Odd...
That's not an issue with .607, thats an issue BBM .66
You say Potato, he says Potaato! Which came first, the chicken or the egg. Isn't RIM responsible for BOTH of those pieces of software? It's odd they would not have BBM work with their own O/S?
To everyone who has VZ connects telling them that we're gonna see .607 monday. Can any of your connects shoot any info to verizon to at least warn them of the bbm bug (which as far as im concerned is the only problem with .607). I figure if we do that maybe they'll wait for .608 or higher.
In other words, rather than complain about what hasn't happened yet. Is there any way we can stop it from happening?
I want all you guys here who load up the new OS to give it a THOROUGH workout so that I will have a good idea if it's worth installing. I learned many years ago that "new" is not always better. hopefully it is, but I'll reserve judgment on something new until it's been tested by many people.

That would be a very good idea if the launch were still a little ways out. With it launching Monday I would assume our QA team has been testing it for a while. Maybe there is just an issue with the leaked .607 versus the official? I guess we'll see Monday.
This info kinda sucks for everyone who installed .607...
I don't know if it is really that bad. Some people seemed to not have an issue. I would imagine you could just install the official .607 over your .607 if you wanted. Just delete your version before installing the new one.

Ive loaded every single OS that has been leaked or made official for my 9530 and 9550 and I have never had as many problems with it like I did with .607. Not sure what the issue is but it wont play nice no matter what I do. Even after a complete wipe and just running the plain ol OS not shrunk. I did several wipes all with the same result. I even downloaded it from several different sources just to make sure it wasnt a bad DL or install. I sure hope if it does go official it plays nicer. Im one of the BBM group chat users and I cant see how they would let it go official if it doesnt work properly.
There is a sorta fix for the loss of keyboard in BBM group chat with the chat open press the BB button and select new chat and a keyboard will popup click on cancel and you'll go back to the chat with the keyboard still up.
