Yeah but make sure it isn't a refurb one. It is there policy to only replace a phone with a new one within the 30day if it is out of the 30days mark they WILL send you another one but a refurb. I worked for VZW I left because there all A$$holes just trying to take peoples $...Well. The leak of this version is actually good. Some people say MMS works and others dont. I tried it and it didn't work on my Storm. A hybrid is basically an OS with exchanged files in it to make whatever it was that was changed, work in that mannor. If the accelorometer worked super fast in .113 and its not fast in .114, the file gets replaced in .114 with the file from .113 to make it work like it did with .113. Confused yet?
Thats just a quick theory of how hybrids work. For instance, I have .114 leak installed on my Phone. I have the MMS File from .100 and the Keyboard file from .109 and both of those issues, work as good as they did with that particular OS. So in reality, MMS forwarding (Pictures not taken by the Storm itself) work like they should, and the Keyboard comes up during a phone call that is made like it should. Thats why people do this.
So, to futher explain more
With the .113 leak. Some people are having issues with forwarding the MMS. So, if you changed and replaced the file in that OS, with a working file from another OS, it will work like that OS you changed it from. The reason why I have .114 on my phone, is because I like how the accelorometer reacts. Its more proper to me. Thats why I started with this platform. The .113 is actually almost just as solid as the .114 build. So give or take, its always worth it to try a leak if your capable of going with the install process. But to give you my opinion, .114 is just as solid as .113 in terms of smoothness and quickness. Thats why I just kept .114. But, I can tell you right now........Verizon would be kicking themself if they released either OS because the MMS doesnt work for some people. You cant release an OS as official if that isnt working with some phones. That just wouldnt be right.
And to answer your question. I dont know why someone would do this. It shouldve been leaked prior to .114. But then again, its a leak and just that. So you never know what gets leaked at what time. In this case, the guy that posted that Leak said it would eventually be Official. Take what you hear with a grain of salt, if you dont see or hear proof. Just my opinion. And as of right now, there is NO PROOF of .113 going OFFICIAL with Verizon.
PS: And I had an issue with Dust under my screen. Called Verizon and there sending me a replacement. Should be here by Thursday. No hassle or anything. I got the phone in December. Well past 30 days. That just goes to show how good this company can be to you, when talking to the right representative.03-25-09 10:24 AM
