are you on BES. Sounds similar to my experience but I just reconnected to my Desktop Manager, made sure my work Outlook was opened, restarted the bberry - had to enter password on Desktop Mngr a time or two and left it for 10 min or so and it did the Enterprise Activation via the desktop - A-OK now.

mclayp · 04-23-2009, 08:43 PM

No I am not on BES. Not sure what the problem is. Updated my OS and now when i click the browser I get an error message.

.132 turned out to have memory leak sluggish irratic radio

I had the same issue. I had to manually do a restore of my application data once the upgrade was complete. After the Restore, I re-activated on my BES and all was well.

I upgraded yesterday afternoon. So far, all my apps seem to work and, overall, I have notice the little quirkys in funky behavior I was getting with .122. My brother also upgraded to .132 last night. His review was ".132 ROCKS!"

still buggy playing music via bluetooth (disconnects between songs). had one random reboot, which surprised me a bit since i haven't really seen many reboots on any of the beta releases. also, if your device auto-locks after x minutes, it seems that pressing the screen to get to the "unlock" prompt is hit or miss - sometimes it works, sometimes you have to press the lock button to get the prompt.

I was quite content with .113 until .122 "officially" was released by Bell. That upgraded lasted less than 24 hours. Needless to say it was a horrible experience. Reluctantly, I upgraded yesterday to .132 and I have had much better luck. I am personally not seeing much difference to .113. The browser may be a slight bit faster and screen rotation seems more consistent.

One problem I witnessed with .122 and it is also present in .132 is the cursor when entering my password to unlock. The cursor is "misplaced". I am not sure what this means as it takes the password and unlocks the device. Anyone else notice this?

All in all, I would recommend .132. IMHO it appears to be a good build.

After about a day of using this I thought a lot of problems were fixed, unfortunately while I was at the Honda Center watching the San Jose Sharks get their asses handed to them by the Ducks my battery discharged all 80% remaining during the 3hrs I was at the game...my phone got insanely hot and died shortly thereafter...

Not only that, but as many have also seen, the radio is still terrible...

I've tried replacing the radio files and all of the phone cod files with ones that actually worked, but that didn't seem to fix it, as I don't think I did it right...

anyone have any experience with modding OS files that could possibly give me a hand here?

Notice a time difference of 1 minute from network and the time displayed by Storm. Anybody else notice this?

adorkable · 04-25-2009, 10:44 AM

It has been a couple days now and things have been going well. My Storm has been holding 1XEV almost consistently, but better than with previous upgrades, and the battery life seems improved over .122 and .114, at least when it comes to talk time. I had to talk on the phone a LOT yesterday before I needed to plug it in. When it comes to the accelerometer, I don't notice any difference at all. I've never really noticed much of a difference, but at the same time, I've never had a problem with it. As for the supposed memory leak, I honestly don't pay enough attention to the available memory to even comment on that.

So far so good, I guess.

hookbill · 04-25-2009, 12:11 PM

Main differences I've noticed between .122 and .132 is camera is a bit quicker again, seems to improve with every leak and typing is more stable.

I do see a few more clock spins then I saw with .122 but simply not annoying to the point where I would downgrade. All and all a decent upgrade.

Thanks XelhaBB for your extensive post. I'm currently downloading it and I think I'll give it a go. My unit is brand new so I'm not risking a lot of stuff and given that verizon is taking their sweet time in approving it...

IMO - if you are still running .75 you will be thrilled with .103 for sure. For now .132 seems to be a small leap in a positive direction. I am interested in what everyone else has to say about .132. I am really digging it so far.

thank you, i had not seen this...swapping as we speak...great find!

dcpuser · 04-27-2009, 06:31 AM

I have it installed and its running great so far. The only thing to remember is to back up your data completely as the thread recommends because the upgrade wipes it clean and does not do a full restore even when checked to do so.

jgb@etree · 04-27-2009, 12:26 PM

FYI - I just installed .132 the 'normal' way and all of my apps, data & settings were restored properly. I did not have to do a manual backup or restore.

Same here. Went smooth as glass.
