Thread: OS 5.0.0.419 for the Tour 9630 Findings & Fixes

Just finished downloading and installing. Everything seemed to go smoothly, with the exception that I had to reset my icon arrangement, etc. Also, some 3rd party apps had to be re-registered. I'm probably missing something there, so if anyone wants to enlighten me, feel free!

I do kind of miss the 3G logo, I'll admit.

I'll report back later...

This is a great release! I have yet to find any issues. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a leak of what is going to be the official release.

Boot up is a little faster
Very snappy performance
The SMS icon is now Amber in color so you can tell the difference SMS and BBM notification icons.
They also have the phone number displayed above the SMS reply box for quick call option.
I had a 15MB gain in space after install.
I can scroll an entire article without having to switch to "Select Mode" in Viigo.

I upgraded from 5.0.0.230 without any issues. I'll follow up if I find anything else.

Runs pretty smoothly although I lost 3G LOL I'm stuck on 1X :\

Nevermind I'm a tard they just got rid of the 3G icon and went back to 1XEV I miss that Icon!

Reboot time run faster..

There is a bit of a lag to wake up my screen. But I can deal with that since Viigo scrolling works again!!

It seems like some of the issues I had with .230 have been tweaked and resolved. For instance, you can delete prior sms/txts all at one time using "delete prior" whereas on .230 you couldn't. Sprint Nav actually works instead of telling you that GPS isn't "on". And the provisioning works, so you can update your profile and PRL.

Hope this helps...:1244:

This may sound dumb, but here goes anyway....:Eyecrazy:
I am running .230, if I upgrade to this one do I loose all my settings? Is this an upgrade or is it like installing a whole new OS?
