WinDirStat portable:

WinDirStat Portable - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com

free, small, and works well. It's published under the GPL and is a Windows version of an old KDE program for linux.

I have this bug. The phone thinks a call is in progress. All you have to do is hit the blackberry button and then select "flash" (as if you were clicking over on a call). This will "end" the call the phone thinks it has and you will be all set.

i have jumped back and forth from .140 to .191. I am giving .191 another shot and I have a question for other .191 users, is any one else having a difficult time loading BBM 4.7 with this OS. I have tried everything, EVERYTHING, everything with no success. I just want to make sure that it is not just me.

For some reason, the lower 1/5 of my screen will randomly become white and unusable. The only way to fix it, is to go into landscape and then back into portrait. Also, my unlock is finicky. I will unlock it, and it will actually go to the home screen, then I go to click an icon, and boom, it is locked again. Sometimes, this happens a few times in a row.

Lets not forget its a leak guys! ha - No fix for this other than what you are doing already...:D:D:D

I was able to add 4.7 just fine. I would give it another shot.

I have to say I didn't have any problem putting 4.7 on. I deleted 5.0BBM once we determined it wouldn't work. With no BBM on the phone I used the app loader and checked the box near the middle of all the app options and that one installs BBM 4.7.

There have been some OTA posts for BBM 4.7 that might be easier, but the other way worked fine for me, granted I miss BBM 5.0 but it's not that big a deal. Hope this helps out.

Storm5150,

I have tried every way to load BBM 4.7 with .191. I tried the OTA's and it does not show up on the phone. Even after battery pulls. When I load the OS through app loader, the BBM box is already checked and and status says none. I wish I could figure out a way around this. I have even added the alx and cod files to the OS and tried loading to no avail.

Loving .191!! BTW, found something y'all might be interested in. It's an easier way to reset BerryWeather app icon after a reboot. hit BB button twice > options > and change the screen layout...2 rows to.. say 1 row, then save and go back to homescreen...repeat and change back to 2 rows, and your icons are changed. I think it's easier...you decide. :D

Yes thank you for the post!

You gotta do it thru app loader and not DM. Just be sure to select it for "install". I was having issues also but it worked thru apploader..Good luck......

Does anyone else have the main icon screen getting messed up occasionally with .190? There will be a white band on the bottom or side in place of one row of icons, and it will persist until you rotate the phone. I am surprised that I haven't seen any mention of this, and I wonder if it is unique to my phone.

I actually have that issue with BBCrackman's 4.7.0.151 Hybrid. My row is black. If I hit the BB key then the return key it goes away. It typically occurs right after I unlock my phone using the unlock key on the top.

Yah, quite often. Usually just rotating back and forth fixes it for me too. I am looking forward to not having this be an issue in .230.

Its been mentioned before, something to do with locking or holstering and when it unlocks or comes out of sleep causing it. As of now it doesnt seem to cause any problems with freezing and all you need to do is rotate it to get it to go away but i agree it is pretty annoying
