The only Down side of the O.S. for me is the media player not working right... It plays some video's and not other's no rhyme or reason, all are the same format...

If you do install it, please let us know what, if any, bugs you find. The users I talked to were using Sprint, but Dawg is using Verizon (no issues there).

I'm curious to know if other CDMA carrier devices will have same/similar issues or not.

I loaded 8830 4.5 onto my BB but i cant find voice notes. Is this a seperate download?

It's included.

Well I must be blind but I cant find it on my home screen. Do I need to download DM 4.5 as well?

Wirelessly posted (Verizon 8830)

Does the file host grp allow you to download the file more than once?
I deleted the file but am now getting the courage.

It should but you might have to wait a day...

I think it is one download per hour

Yup my bad 1 per hour...

Its in the media section. Its not a seperate icon.

On the GSM devices there is a separate icon on the homescreen.

I see the icon in the media section. But there are no contols to play or record. Any ideas?

Maybe it's not installed. Unless you removed the .cod for Voicenotes I don't know why it wouldn't install. Could be not included in that beta version. That's an early cdma beta version.

I tried it for a few hours, and then downgraded to my old OS.

I didn't see any html viewing ability in email, not much difference in the browser, and there was no provision to choose "Desktop" mode in the BB browser. Likely, that will all change when carriers release their production versions.

RIM is upgrading BIS this weekend that will allow HTML (as long as you have OS 4.5).

HTML email will be enabled this weekend on most North American Carriers.

If you go to your blackberry messenger and app click you can choose to send a voicenote. These will be saved where u have no controls. Not sure how else to make it work. BTW I tried to send a voicenote to a non OS 4.5 user with no luck.

Wow.
I did the download. I have no connectivity. It says I have no browser configuration.

In the app loader, 4.5 Core applications was gray. so was the Browser

I am using 4.2 DM.

Did you resend service books?

I could do without all the extra bells and whistles for a while if i could find a way to get the Alpha Sans font on my phone. Sharp!
