Telstra is working great, but it seems that I have lost the icon in all the themes that allow me to have one button bluetooth on and off. It used to be situated right near the wireless and power icons at the bottom of the zen list, but now it is nonexistent, I can enable bluetooth by going through options but I still haven't figured out how to bring the icon back.

No issues/bugs to report with Telstra ( .309 ). I have upgraded 2 other users and they are very happy with it also.
Don't see a Bluetooth icon either, but I am also not using Bluetooth. Yet!

The Bluetooth icon does not appear until you have paired another Bluetooth device.

it really depends on the person. i refer to it by the package version where others refer to it as the applications version. as we've only recently seen with the 8700 software, the application version can remain the same within a few different package versions (due to updated platform/radio code).

I got to -14 in one. I think it's the number of deleted messages. But, haven't bothered to take the time to figure it out yet

Gah, okay - is it just me or did this OS upgrade make the battery life worse?
It seems that my battery drains much faster with this OS. Not sure though.

Did you add any new software along with the upgrade? The upgrade in and of itself should not be using more battery power, as a matter of fact most people report an improvement. It almost sounds to me like something may be running in the background, any apps like Google talk, Pocket day, running?

Fix on the (-x) message count!!!!!????!!!!!
I'm not 100% sure on what I did to fix this, but it works as it should.
try going in the the section where you choose to display message count & / or application name.
disable it.
reboot the phone
enable it
reboot the phone
purge messages etc. (not necessarrily in that order)
sorry i don't have a step by step how to on this work around, but my unread message count is working properly, when I originally upgraded to Telstra, I had the negative count.. but it's all good now.

Vendor.xml is not on my machine. And after going through the steps, the App loader has reported nothing new to load. My current BB OS is .284.
EDITED: Nevermind, figured it out. Upgraded. :D The Zen theme is great!

I've found a serious display bug. Try making a phone call...you'll notice that an 8th of the top of the screen has been misplaced to the bottom. This happens no matter what theme you use.

In all honesty I like this movement as it makes more clearer and more consistent and it does carry the theme display style.

it's not a bug. it takes the banner and places it as the footer. this was by design. for generic banners, it really doesn't appear to be an issue, however with full-screen wallpapers, you may think it to be a cosmetic bug/issue.
