While on the phone with AT&T support, EDGE came back, then back to GSM, finally back to EDGE. It's been on EDGE now for about 45 minutes, with no problems. In any event, I agree with your earlier assessment -- so far, this seems like the best 8100 OS yet. |

Anyone else having a problem where they can't copy and paste? Seems kind of odd, but I it just wont let me highlight characters since I updated.
And yes I am in Edit mode and I hold down the key in the bottom left and click the trackball. I know the key and the trackball work because they both do their normal functions. Anyone, anyone? |
I'm able to copy and paste just fine. maybe time to reboot? What app are you trying to copy and paste from?

Thanks. |
I've always wondered this - is it better to wipe the handheld before doing an OS upgrade? Personally I never have and was wondering if there are benefits or not?
Second question then is I assume all applications would need to be reloaded as well correct? |

much extra time IMO. So yes you have to resintall, which is what makes it take longer. |
I've never wiped the device before an OS upgrade and have not had any ill-effects. The loading process actually wipes it during the upgrade. I've seen the 507 screen during the process before, so I'm not sure just what the benefit would be.
If you backup your data first you can restore it when you're done. However, that doesn't include any 3rd party apps you have installed. So, you will lose those unless you back those up separately. I just posted instructions for that in a sticky in the RIM Software forum and they'll soon be in the FAQ's. So, if you restore your data, and restore your 3rd party apps, what is different than just letting the device upgrade normally? |

Sorry to report but multitap bug still exists. No big deal as i have gotten used to suretype.

Way to go T-mobile and RIM.
I was one of the "dropped call" users on anything above 4.2.0.73. I've already made/received a few calls with the new OS. No problems at all. Plus, the install was very easy. Hope everyone else with a similar situation as me can finally feel good about this phone. What a difference. |
i'm going to download it tonight.... i'm totally excited! can't wait!

IMO, I think it's a good OS. I'd recommend it for any Pearl user...any carrier.
|
I agree with John that this may be the best OS yet. Multi-tap dialing works now for the first time in many updates. The OS just seems overall very responsive. I didn't have any problems with .103 but I think that I'm addicted to upgrading :) So far all is good.

Upgraded and lost my fav's... resent service books and nothing. Edited one of the names online and it came back yet without any of my contacts.
Anyone else experience this? |
