Another update is coming

I talked to my Verizon friend who is a tech there and he said another update is on the way. He owns this phone himself and knows what he is doing. I couldn't believe it when he told me, I will talk to him more and see if he can figure the date its to be released!

Thank You,
Steven

Sold Storm, Got Iphone - Week 1

The phone is still pretty cool. Email needs more organization (I'm programming an app for that now).
However, the internet just went down but a quick reset fixed the problem.

Keylock under OS.148

Downloaded the new OS.148 the other day. I am having some issues with the new keylocking system. I see that you do not get the message anymore screen is locked. No problem with that. 🙂 The problem I am having with the keylock is that when I lock the phone and place it in my holster everything is fine. When I take it out though it automatically unlocks. Is this normal and is there a way I can change it so it stays locked and needs to be prompted to unlock?

Thanks 🙂

Applications & Memory

Is there anyway to save apps to your memory card, or is that just for media? It seems as if you're limited to just a few apps because of storage space. Any way to fix this?

Icon size & Phone Volume

These may seem like stupid question but does anyone know how to change the icon size on the home screen? I don't mean the layout, but the actual size. Before I did the software update, I had them at 5 across and now it's back to 4 and they're bigger. I don't remember how I got it to 5 and can't seem to find a setting for it anywhere. Also, is there a way to max out the phone volume? Not the ringer, but the actual volume. It seems softer since I did the 148 update and I can't find a setting for that either. Any help would be much appreciated!

not enough memory for OTA update?

Every time I try to do install, it tells me I need to delete 21MB of personal data. I have emptied my email, facebook messages, some recurring calendar events, tasks, photos, and some little-used apps. But I'm still getting the message. Anyone got any hints on what I can get rid of?

Love the New OS .148 from VZW!!!

Hey all,

So I downloaded the new OS from VZW and its GREAT. The keyboard is updated which I didn't expect and I like it. Instead of searching to change a letter by holding down your finger on the screen a new box comes up around the word...nice addition!

Doesnt seem buggy anymore and moves very fast especially with the internet and apps:-)

There is Suretype, multi tap and now individual letters in the portrait mode. Interesting...I'll have to try it out.

Only thing is...why didnt they release this thing on Nov 21st when I got the phone with this OS. Good job 6 months later VZW and BB :-D

Update is stuck!

🤭 please help!

Ok so I was in the process of downloading the update on my Storm and I got a phone call. Now the download is stuck at 66%.

What should I do? I tried pausing the d/l and resuming and it is still stuck. Should I do a hard pull? and see if that makes it resume the download.

I don't want to lose the progress I have on the d/l I have been downloading for about 2 hrs.. 😲

what? No party???

I thought I saw a few people dancing in the streets with their Storms today 😁 I guess they updated 🤣


By the way, if you have the leaked .148 there is no reason to change to the official .148

They are the exact same file. So the guys at crackberry say 😁

New Update and I spoke to VZW

Well I've been running .75 this whole time on all 5 of my storms and I hate it.

After reading on engadget and phonescoop about the .148 update I called 611 and VZW confirmed...they ACTUALLY CONFIRMED the update. They said to g2 www.blackberry.com/updates at 3 PM on Sunday to do it on the computer or you can wait til 10 PM on Sunday to do it OTA.

Either way...sign me up! I'm sick of this buggy OS 😡

Docs to go

alright. so one of the main probs i have with my storm is that i get a lot of emails from work that have PDF attachments. my storm will not let me view them. how in the F***K do i view these attachments. i figured that the documents to go that it has should cover it. i was wrong. my girlfriends curve can open them just fine. would just like some advice


P.S. WOOO-frickin-HOOOO about the update. its about time. (a little late actually)i'll prolly still end up using my annual upgrade to get an omnia. haven't decided yet.

Storm Durability?

I've been a happy Treo 700p user for a good while but am thinking about moving on to the Storm. One feature that is never reviewed is durability.

I've dropped my naked Treo onto hard surfaces more times than I'd like to admit, and "it keeps on ticking".

Since getting a Storm will probably not cause me to stop being a klutz I'm eager to find out how tough the Storm is or isn't.

Thanks in advance.

Charlie
