My Tour OS 5 Testimony - All issues Fixed
- For all of you who are having issues with OS 5 this may be a bit of help.
For a while I used 4.7 and had no issues whatsoever but then upgraded to OS5 and ever since had issues until 3 days ago.
I tried a large number of other betas and some of driphters hybrids to find that I am still having the browser click issue and a really bad battery drain.
Then two days ago after reading some posts I decided to try out the really famed .419 (clean - without a hybrid).
DAY 1: The first day I was free of browser click issues but battery still drained more than it should.
DAY 2: With a few resets, battery became great and lasted me a whole day with heavy usage.
DAY 3: This morning I seriously fought with the phone to make it lose 10 percent. That was with a bunch of web usage and a bunch of downloads and even brickbreaker. Also weather bug updating every 30 minutes.

How I managed the great battery life on OS 5?
1. Wipe, Clean install of .419
2. Set screen to a lower setting 20%
3. GPS: 911 ONLY
4. Got rid of MeterBerry (Not sure if this one caused the impact just yet)
5. Magnetic Holster

I would love some feedback on whether this helped someone else or not but me personally I couldnt be happier with my BB now since battery life and a good browser is what I need most from my Blackberry.04-05-10 08:53 AMLike 0 - Good to hear you have found what works for you.
Personally, I am very happy with Sprints .484. I installed it shortly after its release, and never had any issues. I upgraded to VZW "official" flop when that came out, but quickly downgraded back to .484. Again, it is running flawlessly, and I have not had to tweak any of my settings.
I must add however, that before I change my OS (both upgrade and downgrade), I uninstall the previous system from my PC and also do a full wipe of my phone.
Cheers.
