Yeah, it was too quick. Maybe they made it perfect with all the time they had.
Probably the only things different were any changes we made by shrinking. The 431 is 431 same/same so don't see the advantage really, but it's on now 293mb free mem.
Just saw the 9780 has a new leak 6.0.0.448 and the 9700 wtf?? where's our love? 431? Finally from verizon?

Crap, just bring on the theme builder then. LOL!
Just downloaded the new one from vzw. I'm going to install it in a few, did the other one last night but don't think it worked right. Can't put my finger on it but something ain't right. By the way, don't know if I mentioned this, but I used both shrinkers and niether loped anything out of the files. Still scratching my head over that one. I'll let you guys know how this one goes.
Seems same to me, still the smoothest os yet. No issues. I got 2.5mb more mem only because I was able to shrink the startup video this time. Forgot last time. DOH! Well now we wait for 448 I guess. It's all good. Quickest install ever.

Bob, I used both shrinkers this time only because I wanted to remove the startup vid and forgot to use the boss the first time. Everythings good tho.
Look at the platform number. Platform 4.4.0.315 is the radio that was in 398. If you see 4.4.0.314, you have the radio from 415.
Thanks it's the same 398 then. I thought there was a way to tell tho if you came in cold and had no previous clue about the other os. I thought I'd heard how to find it, inside the internal file info, but been looking and don't see anything yet. It's the same as the previous version we all had. Running very smooth.
I'm just finishing up. Would someone who loaded this yesterday tell me what's improved? I was running Shane's 398(415-424) hybrid, and my phone was running really well. Will I see a substantial improvement?

underway, I was using that one of Shane's also then went to the 431 that came around a couple days ago and found it to be just a bit smoother than the hybrid. This 431 is the same as the one I loaded the other day. But to answer your question: Is it noticibly diff from 424? Some,(smoother imo) not alot. Is it any diff than the 431 from the other day? Can't say it is. Just as fine. 431 is the best os to date imho. You should load it at your convenience, just to be up to date and see for yourself. It's not ground breaking. WAIT ALERT: I think I see, yes,yes, there, right there, it is, it is! Oh crap it's not. Thought I saw column view for just a minute there.
Oh, I've loaded it. I'm waiting for my third, no wait, second BP. I was hoping that there would be something cool about this release. Oh well, at least JayDee will get her new phone...

I didn't expect any thing diff than the other 431. No reason. It's very smooth, but so was that. I hope JayDee will get her new bold now also. Thats what this release is good for.
The theme builder will be the next cool thing to come down the pike.
Very smooth here. Some hiccups from the browser, but after a few more BP it's good to go. So far, almost as good as Shane's 398 hybrid. I'll give it a day or so now and look it over again.
With the loss of my C: drive a few weeks back, I lost the SHRINK OS link again and the download. If someone would be so kind as to post a link to its home - just in case I want to think about things - just THINGS and the BIG IF! (G)
I saw the SHORT link to the file but it is not yet available officially at Verizon as I just went to Smithmicro and they still have os 5.... 975 or whatever.
I'm loaded and running smooth. So far I can't tell a difference from the leak. But it's good! I see a new device in Jaydee's future.
EDIT- After further review, overall this is snappier and real fluid. The browser is what it is, I don't think it's bad. I'm liking this so far.
+1 much more responsive than 415 for me, especially the browser. No spinning clocks when opening BBM, but the lag when clicking the Manage Connectons bar and Notifications bar is still there.
I guess that's a "feature" since it's been in every BB6 build.
Guys, I am ready to go.
Am backed up.
Gonna wipe.
Then install 431.
No apps, just native stuff.
Selective restore of contacts, wlans, autotext, etc.
Then let it run.
Sound like a plan?
I'm actually nervous!
Go for it, I think that is the right way to go. Since vzw has not officially released this, you will have to sit on it for what I hope is no more than a very few days before you can load up the cannon and call them.
