Will update as soon as I back up my BB. Hopefully this has a webkit and fixes the random reboots?.... This is one of the quickest update I can remember. .983 was just released a little over a month ago.. and now this?

dont get your hopes up for webkit - OS6 only. 983 sucked balls. hopefully, this one is at least a little bit better.
Just loaded, not much to tell but the browser speed is insane compared to previous builds, stable signal, did have one random reboot about 5 minutes after install

One random reboot isn't a good sign imo. As soon as I get a random reboot, I would just downgrade. Loading it up right now.
Well, it is fairly typical, and is related to something in the MediaNet. Make sure that after install to reboot 4-6 times to give the OS a chance to settle in. OS 5 installs seem to like this. I'm running it now, best part thus far was all 6 of my BBM Groups reloaded correctly, unlike the Fustercluck I had after installing .983. Boot time from battery install to splash screen was 5:30 with security verification at 6 minutes on the dot. And I have a bunch of apps.

Tour isn't on the list to get 6 or the Webkit browser. And so far this is running better than .983. I've run a few battery pulls, and now putting it through the wringer to see how it does.

Update:
- Browser doesn't really seem faster... maybe slightly?
- Boot cycle does seem to chug along faster. (I haven't timed it.)
- Phone overall seems like it runs faster.
- I had a random reboot when launching the News Feed application.
Update #2
- Browser actually does seem very fast compared to .975
- After second random reboot, the phone seems stable now.
Haven't had a reboot again yet, pretty stable. Battery is better, 3 hours of talk and never got that far without a charge lol. Still say browser picked up on this build.
For those that want the time displayed after plugging in the wall charger it still not a function, maybe rim hated it like I did lol

After my second random reboot my phone seems like it's stable now. I haven't had any issues since then. The phone seems faster compared to .975.
Just came back from a random reboot. Pretty disappointing that 983 and 1030 has random reboots. I think its a total deal breaker. Its not worth the tiny speed up.

One issue I found is that my Tour will not automatically go into bedside mode, even though it has been set in the clock options. This is a known issue with 1030 and the geeks at Tweaks have come up with a solution. Extract these three clock files and use BBSAK to Install cods:
So will this fix the stupid reboots! because i was 10 secs away from slamming my phone up the wall I hope this works....
I had many problems with 983, frequent random reboots was the worst. I have not had any random reboots with 1030. Try wiping your old OS, re-install 1030 and do 4 or 5 battery pulls and see if that helps. Good luck!

Check BBTweaks.com in the next week or so. Phil is out Tour mad scientist and he says he will be working feverishly on a more stable, up-to-date hybrid soon.
So how is bluetooth working? On the last one I could click on enable bluetooth for 10 minutes before it would actually do it. Went back to .484 and it works first time every time.
Think if there are random reboots I'll stick with .484 even though I ran .983 and didn't have any cept one.
My theory is that the reason Sprint came out with this update so quickly is because of all the problems with 983. It would make sense that the random reboot issue would be fixed. I don't think any of the other platforms running 1030 are having reboot problems.

But my logic may be flawed where I state: "It would make sense . . . "
