I can't do that on my 8320, and I barely even use it. Two days max for me.

The answer is simple....

1) Buy a Bold
2) Buy a case mate Fuel
3) Enjoy!

If you don't mind to take a warning from a experienced phone bricker, do document any change you're doing on the escreens, there a lot of things you can do, but the common one is bricking a phone.

they also have the one for the 8900 at a half the price of a BB 8900 $79.99 your better off buying a separate battery and a dock with a battery charger and carry that extra battery instead. Maybe $50.00 I would considerate it for the extra amount of juice it delivers but I don't see why is so high.

ok, i wanna mess with this soooooooo bad..........but 1. i am afraid this is above my level 2. i dont know what my uptime or what duration i should select.........any info on number 2?

Whole heartedly agree...if you are gonna make changes, write em down, take a pic...something...just anything to help ya remember what exactly it was you changed.

This is great kinda like the old 000000 security screen and settings on a voyager or envy
only a million times better. I only have one storm so I guess I will use 10 ft pole for now thank CAT lol

It can show you when your OS was signed/created. Which could be some good info.

please everyone keep in mind this a toppic in which not so many people is/will be able to help you if anything goes wrong, I nor BBOS will take any responsibility, you are a doing this at your own risk, and be carefull on what you are doing.

One thing I did on my storm running 5.0.191 was go to the OS Engineering screens, media player (audio + video). The PMIC spk gain was set to +12db. I wonder if this is why 5.0.191 is SO LOUD?

EDIT - I tested this with the alarm. It appears that setting to 0 brings it back to 'normal' and not super loud! I wonder why they have it set to +12db. Very loud.

I'd be interested in what expansion mode means. I set it from off to on and didn't notice a difference.

Wow I am so going to be bricking my Storm right now. Elmer keep your BBM on :haha:
