HawkeyeOC:
Are you having any problems with your VZNavigator program? Mine is shrunk into the middle of my screen and I can not get it do anything? It has been happening since I did the last upgrade.
Any suggestions?

i have had that happen to me with just about every update. i go to the app center and downgrade the vznav and it works fine. i hope this helps
...
I have not downloaded any updates yet because I was waiting for an official update. But I am sick of waiting because my phone is slow.
I tried to use the camera yesterday and my phone froze for a minute.
All the software is buggy, I am assuming that these new updates are less buggy. Somebody help me out here.

...
all the sw is still buggy, even .99. sometimes its really fast and other times incredibly slow. but the camera works.
...
Is there any truth to the rumor that when an official software update from the carrier is released, that we will have to rollback the software to the latest carrier supported version?
...
i dont believe you will HAVE to, and if we did HAVE to, then we could always just flash back to our favorite os.
...
leaks are actual versions put out by RIM but verizon hasn't settled on a version that they are comfortable with... i would venture to guess the official version is coming soon especially from .90 to a quick .99.
...
start the camera and hit options and then color effect then hit white board, my cam froze then restarted. waitin to reboot now
...
if anyone can explain how to load a pic in here ill show ya.
i downloaded a program called 'capture it' and you can take screen shots of your blackberry storm, its a pretty awesome program.

Always wondered how others were doing that!

Thoughts?
-VERY happy the camera is working! 😁
-I was happy with .90 in the beginning too but became less so as the days went on. Little things kept popping up that annoyed me. The phone app was buggy for me as well as the camera. Couldn't get into voice mail sometimes because the dialpad would lock up while on a call, screen would not turn off to save power, etc.
I did a complete wipe with JL Commander and reinstalled with this one. So far so good! Nothing is annoying me yet. No battery pulls this morning.
I hope .99 is stable enough as the days go by to officially release by Verizon 😁

do you think .99 is a lil slow at times? maybe i should do a complete wipe too.
i notice mine is a lil slower sending pics and opening messages, though i do have a ton of them.

and where can I get the jl commander?
Try this link. It explains what the program is about too. Very simple to use. Some think taking the OS off before you install a new one is a good idea and some think it's a waste of time.

Can't be any worse than .75.
Give that man a cigar! 🤣
In general the higher the OS, the faster it is.
Don't let get me started on .65 🤣
...
The link is gone for the .99, it says sorry this page is no longer available. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks, Steven n Cali

You'll need bittorrent or some other torrent software, but they're all free

A couple of things you can try:
-Disable the internet connection on your computer, connect up your Storm and start Desktop Manager and see if it is there
or
-Delete the vendor.xml file located in c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader and then start Desktop Manager
This thread gives some discussion and better instructions on what will work:

Well, then I can't help you. If you can't find the direct download anywhere, that's your only option. Sorry. 😢

...
this might be a dumb question, but could i email u the file? like will email support a file that large? if soo ill email u mine 🙂
...
I don't know of any email server that will let a .exe file through. It's got to be downloaded.
...
Does anyone know if this update fixes the random re-boots the Storm does? I have had 6 of them and they all do it several times a day. I am running .75 and have done hard resets, wiped the phone...
...
just 1 reboot, but other than that, .99 is awesome.
i use a ton of 3rd party apps, which probably is why i had the 1 reboot.
.99 is the best so far

I am so tempted to download .99. Verizon does not seem to want to put there name on any of Blackberrys that are "straight outta the lab!"
...
I still have the .75 software. Camera white screens and phone is rebotting on its own. The storm is on its best behavior on a full charge.
...
i agree with jharo, download .99
its almost like a whole new phone (at least comming from .90 lol)

Here is what I have seen so far
for playing with it for 30 minutes since updating.
1. Scrolling and simply navigating around the phone is faster.
2. The camera is faster, no more 3 second delay when trying to take a pic, and the button tool bar across the bottom edge of the screen while taking a pic is more opaque.
3. The updater application backed up and restored everything, I only need to go do a *228 to reactivate, then I need to reactivate on my BES server at work.
4. Videos, pics and music load quicker, and play smoother.
5. Accellerometer seems to respond quicker.
I will let you all know how day 2 of using .99 firmware is going for me. So far so good.
THANK YOU RIM, for taking the time to put out updates for ...

So far, still no problems.
My phone is working faster, the camera takes pics faster. No freezes, no bugs.
I also noticed it seems to scroll the menus faster too.
Just seems much more stable overall.
And the updater app is very smart.
It made it super easy to do.

Just downloaded OS .99 from megaupload and I am quite impressed with it. What a big difference between .75 and .99.
Installation was a snap. After deleting the vendor file, it installed and I did a battery pull. WOW. 😁
