    .337 is a lot less bugged up some minor issues here and there are fixed. If you switch to .337 I would recommend possibly looking at hybrids. It shows results such as faster browsing and also better battery life.

    Not sure about the fancy characters as i have never used them

    Fancy Characters s also in the CrackBerry App Store. If you purchased it there, Log in, it should present an option to change your PIN. Once they change it, you csn go back and download and previously purchased apps.

    Howdy! I'm new to the threads but I've got a question. I noticed that some are running 6.0.0.246 on their Torch and others are running 337, where do you download this upgrade and how do you install it? I've been using the Curve 8520, loved it and decided it was time to go all the way up to the Torch and so far I really love it. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    And when u done with that follow this from jeffreii

    Close DM and:

    Uninstall any OLD BlackBerry OS versions from your computer if you have them. You can find your installed programs in Windows by going to control panel/programs and features. You're looking for "BlackBerry Device Software".

    Install .337 to your computer. This means you double click on the OS.exe file that you downloaded and let Windows install it.

    C:\program files(86)\common files\research in motion\apploader\

    From there delete vendor.xml, if it's there, then run loader.exe

    Follow the instructions - make sure you look closely at the list of items that have or do not have check marks next to them so you install what you want and don't install what you don't want.

    When the popup asks if it should make a backup of your device and restore your 3rd party apps, it should be selected to do it. Do not change it.

    Wait about 15-20 minutes for the process to complete and your phone to reboot completely before disconnecting.

    Enjoy and let us know how it went. Always remember it takes several battery pulls while you're getting your phone running again before the OS becomes stable. If it seems slow at first just give it some time to do it's thing and when it seems to have caught up, do another battery pull.

    Good luck and feel free to PM me if you have any trouble!
