Everything seems to be working well. No problems with camera, media, MMS, keyboard, etc.
No lag and haven't noticed clock running yet
Gained about 1mb of memory and seems to be holding pretty well
Haven't had it long enough to comment on batt life
signal seems better than 131/5.0 hybrid
No random reboots....yet!
color banding still there04-23-09 12:54 PMLike 0 -

obviously you didn't read any of it. all questions have been answered in this thread.OK. I'm not at all new here...nor am I new to updating OS's. I've been through .65, .75, .76, .83, .99, .103, and currently running .122.
I've also read all 50 pages of this thread...every post.
But, just a couple of quick questions...
- Is the color banding still present in this release?
- Is the MMS problem fixed?
- Does the Accelerometer work faster?
- Does it boot any faster?
- Does it Lock/Unlock any faster?
- Do I need to delete the Vendor.xml file?
- How do I get the "Wireless Update" option in my "Options" menu to download this update?
- And finally, after I did the update, I can't find my browser anywhere. How do I get it back?04-23-09 12:54 PMLike 0 -

I'm not sure if anyone else is having this issue or if it is with my phone in particular, but this might be of help to someone:
I got my phone on the original date of release in November with .65 on it. I eventually upgraded twice (I think .70 but don't really remember and then to .75). After that, I upgraded to every subsequent leaked os (never tried a hybrid and no other officals or VZW). When I went to .85 a fully charged battery would die within a matter of 4-6 hours. Prevously my battery life was excellent and the phone would only require a charge every several days with moderate use. I could not find an explanation on the fourms, so I wiped and tried again with no success, then downgraded back to .75. When I upgraded to .90, I had the same issue, however, this time I left it allone. I'm not sure if several charge cycles corrected the problem or is it was something else, but after several days, the phone began to hold its charge like it had when I got it. The same thing has happened to me lately, both with .122 & .132.
For those of you that have immediate battery drain issues, try to give it a few days. I'm not sure this was helpful to any of you, or if the problem is possibly specific to my phone.
I was wondering if anyone had any answers to why I might have expirienced this initial battery drain, and how it is resolved within two days of an os upgrade. Any information would be appreciated.04-23-09 12:55 PMLike 0 -

I think we got addicted to the OS leaks more than the actual phone, but i think there is well hoping there will be more features added in the future leaks/releases...like how we got the portrait full qwerty and the updated copy and paste feature04-23-09 12:55 PMLike 0 -

MMS is back
Browser is faster, if only slightly
Browser typing is faster
Getting stronger signal (more bars)
Scrolling thru pics is faster
Videos load faster
Phone seems snappier all around when running more than one app (sending texts or on the net while listening to radio)
BT is working on media (videos, music, and video streaming)
Camera and video camera start and save pics and video faster
Memory leak seemingly gone (or greatly reduced)
Opening of folders is quicker (Instant Messaging, Downloads, Apps, etc)
Programs run quicker once opened (BBFileScout, File Lock, Memopad, Calculator, etc)
Switches from 1X to 1XEV to 1xev a lot
Takes long time (talking 5-15 seconds consistantly) to load first pic (then scrolling is faster)
Locking and unlocking phone takes long time and doesn't show lock screen until screen is touched
Had to uninstall and reinstall "Where"
Seeing the waiting icon (clock) a lot more
Opening apps seems to take longer
No difference in accelerometer, if not slower
Color banding still present
Battery life is sucking
There ya go folks, hope it helpedLast edited by drjay868; 04-23-09 at 01:12 PM.

And Thank you for wasting everyone's time. I guess your wit went over the heads of people trying to helpThank you...THANK YOU!
I started reading...saw like 3 people trying to answer these questions and I was like "Oh my God, does NOBODY get it?"
This thread is 50+ pages....and it's the questions I asked...over...and over...and over.
And EVERY thread about a new OS leak is the same thing.04-23-09 12:59 PMLike 0 -

OK
Started with 57 megs non bes, with a couple battery pulls
Bes activated it and went to 54 megs on boot up
Added all my apps back and theme and start up is about 42.1 or so.
On my previous build i started at about 40
The phone is definitely faster. Browser is wicked fast, boot up times are faster, accelometer seems the same, typing lag is gone, way smooth scrolling and menu action
Will let u know about battery life and mem leaks later04-23-09 01:00 PMLike 0 -

Everything is faster or the same as .122, the Browser is especially faster.
Maybe it's just me but my battery life has really gone down... I took it off the charger this morning fully charged, and by the time I checked it 2 hours later, it was at 50% Maybe it just didn't charge or something.
Also, I have no programs other than Buzz me and the default programs running, and my memory went from 42MB's to 29MB's in about 5 hours. I'm really not sure why this is happening either.04-23-09 01:01 PMLike 0 -

Accelerometer switching is faster.
Camera is also faster. Big test will be to see if I can take pictures of my dogs before they walk out of the frame.
Browser seems a little quicker.
Keyboard feels about the same.
Browser typing is better, but still not as fast as elsewhere in the OS.
There's gonna be another leak eventually, and I'm gonna lose sleep updating and playing with my phone... again.04-23-09 01:05 PMLike 0 -
