- Hi everyone,
Jaydee, I will be checking out this thread on a regular basis for the same reasons others have shared. I came here when I first got a Bold and am still learning. The best part of this thread is the patience and support all of you give each other and the new folks like me. When I make a dumb mistake or misspeak, you get me back on track without pulling out the "***** card".
My contract with Alltel is up in July and Verizon will finally get my market in Sept. That is the only reason I am looking at the 9930 when it comes out. I also would like a bigger screen and keyboard.
My thanks again to underway and cbreze for your help in considering a radio change in my 524 install. So far I have not made the change because I have not had any problems. Time will tell if I need to change my mind.05-25-11 01:07 PMLike 0 - Yay Runkle!!!
Glad you will be around too!
I will be able to upgrade in Feb and if the 9930 is the newest BB out, I might just be going with it myself. Then I will have to join a new thread in rehab for the 9930 people and keep this one going for the 9650 folks....
So if you all get there before I do, start a new thread!!!05-25-11 01:11 PMLike 0 - Hi everyone...I've been a bit busy too, but am still here and don't plan on going anywhere else. I have had so much help here and well yes, this is my family
I'm on the fence about upgrading as well, not because it take too long, but because I'm really not having issues with 431 except for the mem leaks, but I've learned to live with that and I can't figure it out so eh no matter.
And just general heebie jeebies that something might go wrong
Now I have a question...I've backed up, bbsak'd everything...checked all I want on BB Boss to shrink off...now what's the next step? I've never shrunk anything before....05-25-11 01:18 PMLike 0 - OK Jim, here are the answers:
I deleted a whole buncha stuff from my storage card so it only take and hour and a half after I reboot to be able to use my media folder. Why? I dunno. Auto recover memory? I have tried it before but it doesn't recover anything. The number never goes up. Only down.
Wipe before loading? no I don't anymore. I will use apploader and it SHOULD put back everything. Except once in a while my OTA stuff is not put back and well, that would be all my themes. All 35 of them. If they go back, great! If not, I'm gonna be having quite a large gun and tonic...and a scream or two!
I have no clue why your themes don't restore as my ota's always do. I have a couple tho and you have tons, still it should work, no? Maybe it's your device, oops, again the need for something newer/better rears it's head.
In any case with your issues regarding any upgrade I've revised my opinion. If your baby's working as fine as possible and your ok with it then don't fix what ain't broke.
EDIT: forgot to mention my theory as to why your auto mem recovery doesn't work as it should. It is extremely over whelmed by the shear volume of mem leak on your bold. It can't keep up. I'm serious.Last edited by cbreze; 05-25-11 at 01:37 PM.

If anything, now that we have been sent to the dungeon, this is more of a place to stop by and hang our hats for a little chat and help each other. Anyway, we no longer cater to just (or mostly) the 9650.05-25-11 09:17 PMLike 0

And then do I run apploader and load it from there?05-25-11 09:25 PMLike 0 - It will be the button that says Modify OS on Disk. Yes, then run apploader.hamsterwheel likes this.05-25-11 11:53 PMLike 1
- I'll be interested to hear your impressions of it. I didn't see it available yet so I'm thinking your in the inner circle of testers.05-26-11 01:31 AMLike 0
- Good Morning Ramblers!
Hamster??? Did you load a new OS already? Wow!!! You're adventurous!
I am still afraid to do anything with mine. I am kinda enjoying the fact that it works (leaks, but works).
Good for you!!!
Midd, so you are using the radio from the 524 version and you have no complaints? If I load the official, I am going to keep that radio too, I believe.05-26-11 08:30 AMLike 0 - Good Morning Ramblers!

- Good morning rambletopians!
I see everyone is busy hybriding (is that a word?) up their 9650's. I've been running a new version of lyricadals 9550 hybrid for a few weeks now and am really happy with it. No memory leaks, no reboots or apps that don't work. The updated opera mini that came out recently is nice too as the typing lag has gone. It used to get slower and slower the more I typed into a post. Loving the berryweather beta too. Anyone else having an issue with the bw iconset resetting to default every time you adjust the homescreen wallpaper settings?
I'm planning on releasing a test version of morph this evening. Its still a bit crude but functional enough to get some feedback from my testers. If any other ramblers are interested with helping out with testing on the 9650 OS6 (and compatible) please pm me with your pin and ill add you to the testing bbm group.
Russ.

- Hamster, where did you get the BerryWeather with all the beach umbrellas? Which one is that? And why don't I have it?
Or is it just because we have no sun here?05-26-11 10:09 AMLike 0
