9500 5.0.0.140 Fixes and Findings thread


Please post your findings here!!!



Blue-- positive
Red-- negative

Just installed, after flattening the phone..

You Tube and Google Maps don't seem to work any more..., which is may be not to be unexpected.., as it is a new full release..

Web Browser is dire, but I wonder if that may just be a bad night.., never had probs with 4.7.151...

Keyboard Ghosting is a nice idea as per iPhone..

Phone feels slows for me..., things take a while to happen...

I was just about to re-load 151 and see that 164 is avail, so will give that a go...

5.0.140 not good enough for me just yet... :no:

At least you get another leak to try...lol
Thanks for posting and welcome to BBOS.

Hope to cya around the forums Good day M8

Welcome to BBOS!!! You are lucky...if 5.0 doesn't work then you have a choice of 4.7.0.164

just loaded .164 and so far found one thing, it seems like you can't do multiple messages delete anymore. well, you can still do the multiple select but only 1 message will be removed....
actually 2 things, one was when trying to delete message from both handheld and mailbox, it is taking too long and if your lucky enough, you will end up rebooting your device :-(

UPDATE: I have now everything sorted out...after install, you may need to do more than 3 batt pulls. in my case, it took me 3 batt pulls initially and 4 softreset (quickpull thing) and 1 more batt pull. After the last batt pull, switched off radio and turned it back on...

everything seems to be working fine now and browser seems a lot faster and check out the exploding effect when pressing BB key while in home screen...
