Guys,
Better UMA dependability for calling with .144 compared to .133? At home mobile is non-existent and on calls with UMA will occasionally drop calls.
Thanks,
Doc

Is the vibrate strength any better after OS update?
I read that some complained early on that the vibrate alerts were not very strong. Does .133 or .144 improve this? Thanks!

.133 doesn't seem to make any different on the vibration strength of my 8900. The notifications are definitely louder -- too loud on the low setting IMHO.

i have had the same luck as well. with .114, if i left it off the charger overnight and on EDGE or UMA, I'd wake up with no power to the device. .133 was similar but not as bad. .144 i can leave it off the charger longer and it seems to be approaching the battery life of my 8310

Battery still draining fast with 144. Maybe a lil difference between 133, but not a significant like some user are reporting. I am not complaining but just reporting back. I use my berry all day. Work emails, personal emails, bbm with friends and browse the internet a lot on the train and of course play a game or two. What did notice with this update is the after while the wifi will idle out and drop the connection. It happened to few times yesterday. I am not sure if this is a bug or is it supposed to be like that, but it never did on my 8320 or on this phone with the previews software updates.
