No kidding!

I guess they are taking the "If it works, don't fix it." approach and don't think that we need an upgrade...........well.........THAT'S NOT FUNNY!:aargh4:

My S2 is running so well I need an upgrade because I think there's something wrong!:crazy: Help! Help! Leak! Leak!

patient is virtue. remember at the time 9500 users have to wait to get 328.

but the wait is paid off now. hopefully all of you get leaks soon enough before anyone's gone nuts about the leaks... hahahaha

I mean that it's not an official version but a "semi official version" because otherwise it would be the full OS..

Sure, but with a little efford it gets a "quite full" OS (e.g. with the older language files).

My summary so far, rock stable, no memory drain, fast browsing, smooth menues and touch screen reaction - but still, a real improvement over 402, well not that I've noticed so far...

Nevertheless, what about a new leak, let's say .480?

As reminder to everyone and I meant no offense to any, this topic is to discuss findings and fixes on the official released OS for the 9500, hybfrid OS has their own forums to be discussed at.

THANKS everyone and let's stay on topic please.

Hm, I am talking about 425, am I not?

:amish:

It provides a mix of 402 and 425 file - so it might be OT - like a hybrid, dunno...

btw, think about the Rep Power issue

Ever happened to you: lost a service book during an update?

Happened to me while upgrading to .425; one book was missing, but only one - restored it via backup, but why did it happen? Any idea? :bigeyes:

did you do a wipe first? and also there is always a chance of losing everything when doing an upgrade because apploader will do a low level wipe when it initiates the OS loader

Hm, ok, no, did not do a wipe prior to this upgrade - I wiped before 402, but for 425 I only used the app loader with "backup" enabled - would have expected, that the app loader would backup all service books, but this was not the case - is there any way to seperately backup the service books (I am on a kind of hidden vodafon account, another company is selling it as theirs but in reality it is vodafon)

Love this one. Had to figure out how to get it installed, but eventually it was pretty simple

No problems with mediaplayer or battery. Memory is stable, I did a wipe but got around 37 Mb free. Browser seems ok, not faster.

The only way to back them up... is by doing a back up through DM and then restoring them the same way

Hi
Anybody knows witch files are regarding video codecs? On the .328 I could play both XVID and DivX avi's. Now with .402 my Storm only plays MP4.
It's a pain converting every single movie It just take to long.
So I would like to use the codecs from .328 in my .402. Or does .425 have this fixed?

Wipe and reload will be the only option. This is the same file but you will not be able to download it unless you are on the carrier that released it as they only relesased it through DM i believe.

Folks,

I installed .425 2 days ago. However, since then, SMSs do not display the sender/contact name but rather only their number. It only works when I initiate a SMS conversation by selecting a contact from the phone book.

Everything worked just fine up until and including .402.

Wiped entire phone and reinstalled. Still no go.
Checked, rechecked, double checked settings (and so on)... all are ok. Nothing seems different than it was with previous builds.
When receiving phone calls, everything works normally and the contact name is displayed.

Any ideas for a fix???

Another thing, since .328, MMS are no longer available. Has anyone saw this as well?

Thanks

Nope, cannot confirm either of your findings. I wiped before, too. Installed 402 on the PC, then used the 402/425 to install it over the 402 on the PC (see links in my former post here) and transferred it to the berry with the app loader - SMS/MMS all fine.
