Decided to upgrade to the latest BlackBerry Storm OS. It's a full version instead of a hybrid. Overall I like it but do find something interesting. I will update this post with more details later.
Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry
***UPDATE***
Overall I like the .230 full version. I did wipe BlackBerry Storm first before installing .230 full. Here are my findings so far.
Good:
Bad:
Indifferent:
Bugs:
I think this is a good start and hope it helps.
Good:
- Google Sync works after searching the forums for the link to download.
- Quick Launch works
- Viigo works
- Facebook is working for me
- I like the threaded messages
- 3G icon is cool.
- In the past I showed 2 bars in my house now I show 4 bars.
- Backgammon works
- Slacker works
- Pandora works (still testing had some lockups I think is profile related)
- Evernote works
- Google Map is working
- Google Voice works
- StormSlider is working
- Ubertwitter works
Bad:
- Meterberry does not work for me even with all the tricks of the trade.
Indifferent:
- When I receive an SMS the icon is the BB Messenger icon.
- When I click on Media it is a folder now and takes me to media related icons instead of the old way.
- I have a Files icon I did not notice before.
- I do not have city ID.
- I do not see a huge difference in the browser.
Bugs:
- Strange thing when I go to landscape mode the BB dims. I have set my screen to 100% with no auto dim and still landscape dims.
- SMS messages never fully showed read. They stay BOLD even after opening and reading.
- I get some random lockups that I think are 3rd party app related.
I think this is a good start and hope it helps.
