You are not the only one to notice this, happens on mine as well.

Some of us are trying to figure this out, it is not happening to everyone.

Could list what third party applications you have loaded? That might help some troubleshooting.

I would like to upgrade to this newest OS, but did want to know if it will be compatible with my unlocked Storm. Will I need to unload and reload the service books, or do I just follow the update procedure as described here?
Thanks in advance!

1. Follow the procedure above to load the OS
2. Follow the StickyNote procedure, again, on how to make the 9530 work on ATT/Tmobile. You must go back through that process EACH time you load a new OS.

OK - there are a lot of good things about this new OS, but it will not charge - not with my wall charger, USB to computer, or car charger. Luckily I have a 2nd battery and portable battery charger. I have to switch out batteries every 8 hours or so - because the new OS drains so much faster. Is there a specific program that messes this up: Viigo, Slacker, etc?? What can I do?

[autocore]

zero7404 i havent pulled the battery to see if that helps it....i will try that....but i do see some ppl are having the same issue

[autocore]

oh yea i dont have any 3rd apps installed as of yet since the update

[rouen1969]

OK ...it's been like a week with the new OS. It is still awesome too! I have honestly not had one issue, save the whole theme thing. I'm sure that will be worked out as well in time! Great job Verizon!

Does anyone know of a quickpull app. that works for the new vs5.0 because, my main problems are charging issues which i have to reset with a manual quicpull each time I want to charge. Number two my quickpull app, does not work, and number three I cannot download Google Voice. Has anyone had any luck on downloading google voice to the new version. Or if they could give me the app some how I woudl appreciate it. The regular mobile google voice site says my device is not supported.

Change your phone browser option to "FireFox", then go to the google voice mobile site and download it.

I had the same issue and found this a few days ago:
How to use QuickPull on OS 5.0 - Steelthorn Software - FAQ

As for me, there are a couple of issues that are still bothering me after the OS update. First, my memory usually starts at 30MB, within a couple of hours gets down to 20MB and by the afternoon it falls below 12MB. I never noticed this before the update but then again I didn't check as often as I do now. Has anyone experienced a similar memory leak since the update?

I've tried narrowing down the apps that could be causing this and started by uninstalling WeatherBug but I am still seeing some leak of memory. Next app will be UberTwitter but I really hope I don't have to go that far.

The second issue is related to sound quality, not only the ringer/alerts as someone mentioned above, but more troubling during calls. And it's an issue when putting the phone to my ear, the speakerphone and even when using my bluetooth headset.

Whatever assistance anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Check in your "Downloads" Folder everything downloaded goes in there

No dimming here when tilting. But have noticed that the hard key unlock is a bit wonky and the phone no longer shows that it's charging, even though it is.

I love the responsiveness of the 5.0. Much improved and now makes me feel like I have a usable smartphone. Only a year after getting it. Finally!

Since my update I have had the phone mysteriously reboot without cause. Today after the reboot I noticed that my wallpaper now no longer fills the screen but has been cut off at top and bottom. So the areas which used to be partially opaque are now totally opaque and I can't find any setting to return to the way it was. Has anybody seen this?

Didn't work for me, keep getting "NO CHANNEL/CIRCUIT AVAILABLE"

hi all,
there doesn't seem to be a single post found with valid link of leaked v 5.0 for 9500.
