OS's are device specific so if you have a 8300 then you can only run a OS that is made for the 8300 only.

[coffeemomof2]

Installing it now. Will let you know as well. Keep your fingers crossed, this is my first time upgrading an OS.

[ghostshell]

thanks Garz, no its not a beta, you have to know how to access the provider list to get it form the BB site, but since it was provided by that carrier i linked to them.

[ghostshell]

my first sticky! Thanks Garz!! I feel so special.

[Entrical]

Not bad Free memory jumped from 22 to 25.

[jdconn01]

DL it now, anyone who already has it wanna comment if theres anything new going on?

[Entrical]

I don't notice anything extremely different, but it's only been on my curve for 2 hours.

Downloading now! hope memory leak is tamed a bit from .81

[coffeemomof2]

I got everything installed. I upgraded from the original OS. I see yellow pages.com,voice note and the video recorder.

[tmoblk23]

Memory leaks on BB's never completely go away. It will exist in some way.

[JQRS]

i have prob WAY too many apps installed and with .81 i was at about 16....... file free after a reset and about 10...... after working for a while....the upgrade went up 2 20......... and working at around 16........ so i'm happy SO far

[latinatwix28]

I would stick with .102 unless you are having issues with it. .102 is a later release.

[ghostshell]

on 102 now, 102 is a beta sooo....... neways I start out with 30.4 file free on 102 with one app and my custom theme, i install a 700K app and over a week im down to 27.6 file free. Going to try this one and see.......Have every release since .55 so going back up to 102 is very easy for me.

[Jigga5]

Haven't noticed any differences....although I cannot connect to BES now!

[Jigga5]

I got a new (replacement) 8310 yesterday, updated to an older 4.5, restored a backup and it activated me to my BES automatically. I just upgraded to this version and cannot activate. Is there a part of an old backup that I could restore to activate me so I don't have to bother my IT guy on the weekend?

Oh well, I just its decreased some what though, but is it just me or has anyone else noticed that when you want to delete an email it won't ask you if you want to delete it "from mailbox", or "handheld"? Now I just get the choice to simply delete.
