T Mobile 8320 BB OS 4.5.0.48
 

Anyone seen this latest release. Curious about the memory leak and BB Messenger Contacts that are erased? If it hasn't been addressed I am going to have to downgrade back to 4.2.184.

I'm hoping for some good news. I like the 4.5.XX enhancements but the resets are killing me.

You seem to be missing some digits in your version numbers.
The new OS is 4.5.0.48 and your old OS would be 4.2.2.184

The memory leak for your concern still exists. It's just life at this point. Same as there is on the 4.2.2.184. If you don't need the upgrade, or nothing is enhanced for you, you don't need it.

Memory leak is an application issue; likely it still exists (I have never had it, so I don't know).

My BB Messenger items have never gotten lost in the upgrade.

Not in the upgrade but after a battery pull.

That hasn't been a problem for me either.
I've never lost any messages, contacts or conversations in BB Messenger.

I think this may be due to having both a BIS and BES servers with BB Messenger. I can't figure out why other people don't have the same problem.

I have BES, BIS and Unite on mine. Never had this issue with any 4.5 release

I havent had any leakage either.

Here is an example. Just the 5 running programs before and after the battery pull.

5MB Before
11MB After

And what programs had been running for the 48 hour period prior to the battery pull?

Browser, Home Screen, BB Messenger, Phone, Messages.

So after a battery pull, you only get 11MB to start off with? I think you need to follow John Clark's memory freer procedure and see if you still get this "drop from nowhere" if you start out with at least 25MB. Worth a try.

Yea, you have too much stuff on the BB already.

What other third party applications do you have loaded (maybe not running) on the BB?

Instango, Weather Bug, and Jive Talk. I will follow John Clark's memory freer procedure and advise.

Thanks

I'll bet you a dollar that your memory leak is due to one of these.

Instango, WeatherBug and JiveTalk "should" be running in the background if you are using them...

Did you see all of these when you use the Application Switcher (Alt-ESC)?

Has the voice mail issue been fixed in the release ?

Can someone post if there is any fixes in this release so as to avoid the rest from going through the hassle. Thanks
