    I have downloaded the update 2 seperate times and then tried installing the OS onto my computer. Both times I get a message saying "Error 1406 Could not write value to key \SOFTWARE\Research In Motion\Apploader". Anyone have any idea what's wrong?

    I am having issues answering the phone when I take it out my pocket. It is in landscape mode and when I press the screen for answer OR hit the actual green phone button it only mutes the ringer and not answers it. It only seems to do this when it comes out of my pocket in landscape. Do you know if this OS update if fixing this issue as well?
    Wow, I thought it was just me. I have had similar issues sporadically.

    Ok, I bit the bullet and updated the phone. Honestly, I was not that unhappy with the original software and had few of the issues others have been noting. My experience with the upgrade was smooth as silk and just like the poster said. I am running Vista Home Premium on my desktop PC. It took less than 20 minutes from download to install. I just looked at the "About" page on the 9530 and it showsv4.7.0.75 (platform 4.0.0.94) seems right to me.

    Thanks, this device has been awesome so far.....I tried the iphone first gen for two weeks, went to Samsung i760 for less than two weeks and this is finally what I have been waiting for. iphonesque, but on a good network VZW!

    Finally got it!!

    After trying a good 4 or 5x yesterday to no avail... I UNinstalled my DM [UTD version too..] and THEN 'ran' the OS update, it then prompted me to open the App. Loader and connect my BB. So I did - it installed and yes - I finally have .75! AND it only took maybe 15min. total

    So I'll finally say thankyou for posting the leak, lol. Its appreciated And it doesn't lag as much.. that's really the only 'issue' I had w/ the old OS. So thankyou very much for posting it

    Thanks to Don....After reading your explanation the upgrade was a no brainer. I did the upgrade to be on the edge although with a lot of help from CB it was faster than in the beginning. When I went to Verizon today I told them if it wasn't for CB they would have gotten the storm back in pieces. Thanks to all on this FORUM that helped make me into a BB Lover.

    Thanks.

    Can some of you tell me why you feel this is a marked improvement over .65 This is my first bb by the way. Please tell me what you guys think are the biggest improvements. The only thing I can see is the Lag time between portrait and landscape "may" be a little better.

    What am I missing that you guys are seeing.

    By the way, great site.

    Ok it appears that there is an update (most likely .75) available on my BES server now.

    I logged on today and it has an update tab, saying that the storm can be updated from carrier "105"

    I assume this is .75 being delivered to BES as promised previously, but will report back asap if its anything newer than .75.

    well i got it... and i may have been one of the lucky few that .65 was great. but after the update my storm is slower than ****. way more lag on everything. it has been 24 hours and I can now relate to all those with lag issues on .65, going to downgrade now just hope it goes back to the same speed as before.

    a lot of people have noted that they did not notice any improvement til after a battery pull.

    thank you sir Don.

    I assume if i am receiving this, that .75 is the final. There goes the hope that .75 was a work in progress and and even better one was coming out on the 8th, right?

    Either way, you are a gentleman and a scholar!

    this is quite interesting. I would think booting the phone with a new OS, would not require a battery pull.

    or that after booting the os fresh, that a battery pull would do nothing.

    Can someone maybe shine some light on why this does anything?
