Crackberry Storm Official Update out Today!
| December 5th, 2008
Well, it looks like the official OS update for the storm will be on Verizon’s website at 12pm today (EST). This will be the official update and not the one I talked about in earlier posts. After using the Beta update for a few days now, i have to say it was a much better user experience then .65. Gone, were the horrible lag times between position flips. Banished was the muddy quality of the Blue Tooth headset. Thank god cause that wired headset was pissing me off…Anyway, here are some things that are addressed in this update:
- Device may reset intermittently while sitting idle or when using multimedia applications
- User may experience one-way audio (incoming audio is muted) when using voice activated dialing
- When listening to music on low volume while wearing wired headphones, the volume of the music will increase to the highest level when the user receives an incoming call
- Improvements in display performance in terms of switching between landscape and portrait modes and keys displaying correctly
- Improvements in performance for multimedia capabilities such as video, music and MMS
- Improvements in bluetooth audio performance in certain scenarios
After a few days of ENJOYING, yes that is right, ENJOYING the BETA update, I will probably upload this one as well. I have a feeling they leak the OS a few days beforehand and then troll the Boards to see what the Bleeding Edge folks like myself discover in the way of further bugs with the Beta release. That gives them time to make last minute Tweaks to anything they can, and add to the list things for the next build.
Either way I think leaking the OS beforehand for the Bleedingedgers is fantastic.
Countdown till NOON!
