Official 4.7.0.132 for 9530 Fixes and Findings Thread
- ok, so I just noticed that I actually lost some mem. I was at 32 or 34 (can't remember which) befoer and now I'm at 29. i haven;t done anything except see if the browser was faster (which it seems to be just a little). I also noticed all of my contacts are gone. I haven't checked dm yet, but I did back it up before I started. Hopefully my contacts are there!!04-23-09 07:33 PMLike 0
- When I try and make a call .... it does not say anything.
I press the key pad, and all I hear is "clicks" when I press the send key it just keeps thinking and won't connect (can't hear any ringing). Same is true for a call coming in. my phone will ring but when i answer it you hear NOTHING
1) Manage Connections button -> is Mobile Network checked? I assume it is because you said you were recieving calls
2) do you have the blue LED blinking indicating a Bluetooth source? This would explain why you can't hear anything. (also under Manage Connections, try turning BT off and see if problem still exists)
Let me know.Last edited by yomonk1; 04-23-09 at 07:37 PM. Reason: typo
04-23-09 07:35 PMLike 0 - i know some people are crazy about app memory...my phone is at 1.9 Mb and its just as responsive as if it had 20+
but i have no programs running, just the normal list that you cant close..phone, messages, etc
also battery life is pretty bad
edit: i installed this last night and immediately did two battery pulls04-23-09 07:40 PMLike 0 - How the heck do you guys get such fast reboot times?? Mine is consistently 5 min. Has been on every build since .75 What gives?04-23-09 07:43 PMLike 0

1) Manage Connections button -> is Mobile Network checked? I assume it is because you said you were recieving calls
2) do you have the blue LED blinking indicating a Bluetooth source? This would explain why you can't hear anything. (also under Manage Connections, try turning BT off and see if problem still exists)
Let me know.
2.) No, Bluetooth is off04-23-09 07:53 PMLike 0 - i know some people are crazy about app memory...my phone is at 1.9 Mb and its just as responsive as if it had 20+

Was laggy and slow at first, but after 2 battery pulls it is Super fast and smooth. Landscape to portrait is instantaneous. Browser is faster.
Pratically NO memory leak. I was on .113 before, and have used .99 and .90 before, they all leaked me down to 13 MB usually and floated around there, sometimes lower. Here it hasn't dropped more than 2 MB since my last batt pull (28 MB total), and that was almost 12 hours ago. Usually it drops memory fast.04-23-09 07:54 PMLike 0 - so far the worst leak ive had has been 6MB in all. since 7 this morning ive listened to music and sent plenty of messages that would have drained my battery completely before. my battery is now at 40% after 13hrs of almost constant activity: browsing the internet, music, and messaging. i would say thats pretty good. i have taken breaks but for the most part i would say ive been using the phone more than it has been idle04-23-09 07:59 PMLike 0

And three battery pulls.
And a distorted lock screen that was freakish in appearance.
I'm thinking this update is a loser.04-23-09 08:02 PMLike 0 -
to check how much memory you have, go to options>memory
you will see three types of memory listed -- application, device and media card
unless you are running extremely low on the application memory in particular, you should be ok -- app memory is like RAM on a computer - it's the amount of memory needed to run the programs -- this will fluctuate depending on how many apps you have open and what you're doing on the phone at any given timeLast edited by leo1055; 04-23-09 at 08:05 PM.
04-23-09 08:02 PMLike 0 - memory leaking is how much memory is being wasted through your use of the phone. im sure someone can explain that better, but i use meterberry for a more accurate reading. it tells u how much the app memory has changed. or you could just go to memory in options and look at the app memory and compare it at diff times.04-23-09 08:02 PMLike 0

There are very detailed tutorials on this at the beginning of this forum....much better and much more detailed than what I gave you...
Good luck!04-23-09 08:05 PMLike 0 - now I'm cussing...out loud in my head. I backed up my phone in the DM, as suggested. This is the first time I have ever backed up my phone because I've nly had it for 2 days. I have not sync'd it with anything. After the upgrade to .132 all of mu contacts are GONE!!!!! When I went to the DM to restore the backed up data...nothing. Time for y'all to show me how smart everyone onthis board really is. Who can help me retrieve my contacts??????
Please Help...thnx.04-23-09 08:05 PMLike 0 - wow. id say this is the best os out. even better than the hybrids. well i only tried the .114 v3.5 and 4.7.0.112/5.0 hybrid, but compared to those, my phones is running a lot smoother. havent seen any problems. before my phone had frozen once and would leak memory like it had holes, lately i havent been to worried about memory leaks because when i check it it hasnt fallen below 30MB. and ive posted a lot about my battery life. the switching between portrait and landscape is a lot smoother and quicker, and the same goes for switching between apps04-23-09 08:06 PMLike 0
- Loader wouldn't read my device config so I ran it with the /nojvm option which forced the install but wiped out all my 3rd party apps. Now re-downloading them because these apps aren't included in the backup?
That said - this is the fastest and most stable OS I've run yet and I'm on probably my tenth...
(can't remember - was that supposed to be blue?)Last edited by donaldpsmith; 04-23-09 at 08:21 PM.
