Basically, if I use the rodgers or tmo official loads voice it great but BT DUN doesnt work, and if I use the TIM load the BT DUN works but Voice is horrible..
Here's to hoping the NEW T-Mo load fixes both issues!

Same here, we can only hope they'll both work properly. To stay up for midnight or not stay up for midnight, that is the question.

The 8100 lives!
Cool I'm all done w/ the installation. Had to do a battery pull & resend service books for the email inboxes to show up. Otherwise the phone seems to be working just fine.
Something that wasn't mentioned in the bug fix list is that the Yahoo mail icons now show up correctly (a Y! icon, instead of a generic mail icon) It was broken on the .64 OS.

Here is the edited BlackBerry.alx file. Once you download, rename the file as alx instead of doc.

FYI because some wondered about the 4GB chip and this new OS, I installed the OS and the 4GB chip works fine.  |

I cant download it from any of the above links for some reason.
http://downloads.infospace.com/8100_v4.2.1.103.exe - just downloads a 67k file, and the rapid share doesn't do anything. |

I have been running this since about 7AM this morning. Of course first thing I did was get my zen list back on. LOL
I bumped up from .101 and the upgrade went perfect. Usually after an upgrade things are pretty slow with viewing media and pictures while it has to render everything for the first time but it was almost as if I never upgraded. Jumping in/out of apps, calendar, call logs and messages was surprisingly snappy.
Looks to be a goodie!

It was weeks after TMO released .64 that they sent out the SMS message regarding a new OS.
