Now, i know im new and all and actually this has been bugging me for a long time w these new os. In my contacts for ringtone and messages it still rings in the holster,why? If you spend big bucks on a phone should it not work correctly? I have the ringtones working , now just the messages vibrate and ring, no matter what you put it to.I know w my pearl set vibration to vibrate in holster no problem, w the storm big problem!No matter what OS i download same problem every time hoping someone fixed it. Thanks!
upgraded to .132 last night and no problems or reboots yet. i can finally send pictures/videos/ etc. through sms but now i cant view attachments in emails. i cant view a jpg in an email. seriously!! i click to open and a screen pops up saying "more request cannot be completed. service book information not found" anyone know how to fix this?
so far so good....better than .113 at least everything appears to be working.....113 something new would f**k me daily.....I thought it was a marriage license for a bit....thumbs upafter 24 hours

try pluggin in a headset or headphones and then unplugging a few times... it should fix your issue...i Had this happen to me after an upgrade.. when music is playing I just took my headphones and plugged and unplugged repeatedly... fixed it!
The battery life on .132 is off the hook for me!! I had a full charge when I woke up and took it off the charger at 7 AM, going strong now with 85% left and that included 2 solid hours of Pandora while I cut the grass!! So far, I really couldn't be happier.
This is incredible to me, because I'm still running about 14% loss every hour. And this was after I changed to 1ev (sp) instead of Global.
Not sure what the problem is, but this is a big bummer. Maybe some power settings reset that I had originally changed...
- youtube app. I keep getting a connection error (there was a problem establishing the connection "java.lang.illegalargumentexception: expecting small float"
anyone got a fix for this ?
+1 any help please
but overall .132 is great just do not understand what is up with youtube
Ok is been now 24 hours and everything is running great..
Battery life is good
Transitions are very smooth and quick
All my media and messaging works as it should including camara and video camera
Very happy with this OS the. Only thing I have notice is after batt pull when phone starts it takes
A few seconds for screen to wake up (can't select anything) and every so often when menu button press
It takes me to the switch app screen instead of the menu itself (no big deal) my wifes phone is working 100%
No flaws so far...my upgrade was from 122 and my wifes from 113 both thru uploader with out back up uploader did it all

Very hesitant to do so, as .113 was running great for me...but once I got a whiff of that pipe, I just had to hit it.
Read through all the threads of everyone's findings and decided that so far the positive outweighed the negatives.
Overall the process went better than expected...it took me a total of 25 minutes to complete the process from the time I installed the OS to my PC to final reboot of the storm.
So far the overall results are positve: (I did do a battery pull an hour after loading the new OS)
overall faster...from the browser, switching between applications, text messaging, to camera operations.
More bars noted in my house, where I normally only had 1, I know got 3 - 4 (I haven't observed the switch between 1EXV to 1exv as of yet)
An overall gain in memory from normal loadup (after battery pull) of 35 - 36 to 43.4 with no change in apps.
*228 worked without any problems on both selections 1 and 2
I don't know if it's just me but he qwerty keyboard in portrait view looks and "feels" a bit bigger and easier to use..
reboot time was 2.10 vs 4 to 5 minutes with .113
The "changes"...I don't use negatives here because it's just a change in the specifics of the .132 OS vs what I was used too with the .113:
After a battery pull if you have any IM app on your phone it automatically connects to that IM service (i.e yahoo or aol)...and yes, I made sure the box's for "auto sign-in" were unchecked.
Have noticed a slight memory leak...in an hour that my storm has been sitting on the charger, with absolutely no use at all, memory has went from 43.4 to 37.2 (but just as I was typing this I checked my memory and it had climbed back up to 40???)
ummmm so far that is all I got...I'm sure there will be other bumps in the road along the way, but I'm hoping that after a week or so the OS will "right" itself and keep me happy that I took the plunge!!
So it's been about 24 hours since install of the .132 build...still not experiencing any major flaws to speak of.
23 hours on the battery and my batter has only went from 95% to 65%. I've done 2 battery pulls (Just to try and "even out" the new OS) in this time frame. Both times, I started up around 43.4 and have went down as low as 35 (that I saw) and have leveled out around 40. The second time it took less than two minutes to reboot
I also have noticed that when I get a call, unlike with .113, the buttons seem to react instantaneous. Before I would have to hit the answer or ignore button a few times in order for it to work.
I have no backlight issues
Still having excellent reception
No issues as of yet with switching between 1EXV and 1exv
No issues with camera or video recorder
Web remains faster as compared with the .113 build
No issues with texting/emails or recovery of my apps after installation (didn't even have to "recover" them by re-entering my info)
The only "negative" I've experienced thus far is what I posted in my original findings...when I do a batter pull my IM apps automatically sign in, even with the "auto sign in box" not checked. I deleted and re-installed both Yahoo and AOL and it continues to happen. But it's something I can live with.
So far for me and my storm the positives significantly outweigh the negatives!!!

Ok so dispite my better judgment i upgraded and surprise i have more app memory, phone is faster, and i have better battery life.
down side youtube app no longer works ^_^
My youtube app is working as I had no probs with it...not that you care.. But it might be a compatibility mode issue. If you haven't already, try enabling compatability mode...I just checked and mine is enabled on my youtube.
This is my first OS update and the phone is so much faster in general. The only issue I ran across is that it couldn't import my calendar. Any suggestions on fixes
Ok second day. I have upgraded about every other leak or so
Bat life is slightly better
Browser is faster
Keypad is faster
Still have memory leak but not as fast i used to have to pull every 4 hours and now it is more like 6 hours
Some 3rd party programs have issues which i have not experienced before.
However i have had 6 random reboots when calls come in and i am in a program sometimes viigo sometimes visual voice mail i never had experienced this before on other leaks.
Overall worth the try but i dont believe it is a release version yet
This is my first OS update and the phone is so much faster in general. The only issue I ran across is that it couldn't import my calendar. Any suggestions on fixes
I don't use outlook...but I believe this issued to be addressed in this thread somewhere..but it beats me which page it's on...do a search and I'm sure you'll find the fix to it.
