Thank you for all your work!

I have updated it but it is still predominatly 151 and 100 so the themes may still not work correctly.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm going to do a wipe and give it a try. Will post my test results. Thanks again

Bryan,

I don't think this thread is in the right place. It doesn't show under 9530 operating software.

Wow, what a difference. My phone for some reason hated v7, but it seems to love this already. The browser seems to load pages faster, and my phone is over all more responsive. Ill post more after a day of playing.

what's so different about this new one? did he fix the volume button when watching a video?

No that is still not fixed as I am pretty sure no one has located what cod is causing that.

OOak's hybrid claims to have fixed it but i never checked it out when i had it on my phone. I've been running v7.1 shrunk down with the .132 radio.....probably the best my phone has ever worked!! Thanx BBC!!:bigok:

Hmm I thought OOAK's was mostly .148 and that was how he got around it?

So V7 Version 1 can allow me to use my favour themes???

If your theme did not work on V7 it will most likely not work on V7.1

So what is different from V7 and V7.1??? Because the big problem from V7 just only using favour themes???

I copied over a post from Jlevy on page 1 that outlines some of the imporvments.

I also experience less "spinning clocks" while switching applications and improved battery life as well.

Clock spins smuch less for me and the sweet transition things happen all the time now instead of sparingly like when I was running v7/.148. I'm running v7.1/.132 now. It's quick and awesome. Been running for about 2 days.

Of course. Launch DM and go to add programs you should see BB messenger in that list. Check it then let it install.
