I'm sure there is others that we liked, but I am definitely curious if this is possible.

I don't believe that it is possible to "combine" 2 different OS releases like you suggest.

I also believe that it is only a few users that are having issues with the .200 release. I have had zero issues so far on .200, and I receive/send many texts & emails every day. It has been quite stable (for me) so far... been running .200 for ~8 days now.

Well I'm glad it's running for ya, and my idea may not be probable, but it is certainly possible.

I think it's just a case of identifying the problem modules in .200 and replace them with the same module from .180. If the app loader doesn't do a checksum of the modules against a manifest, they should load at the very least. If the modules have to pass a checksum test before installation then it's a matter of obtaining the proper checksum and editing the manifest.

Whether or not they run, work and play nice is the big question. When I feel motivated to sit down and do the dirty work, I will try it (unless a new stable version comes out before I try).

which version support chinese character?

.195 or .200?

Well I put .200 back on my flip and it was fine for 8 hours then the messaging app crashed, and on the last SMS I recieved, it dumped me into a 523 error.

Ufortunately I'm at work now, but I have .180 at home still and I'm going to try and selectivly remove the offending modules with javaloader and reinstall the .180 versions with javaloader as well.

My guess it should run, but I don't think it will brick to paper weight status. Worst case is that I wipe it clean and reinstall the damn thing with .180.

I Did It!
I couldn't use javaloader.exe thanks to complications of using my keyboard with windows in a virtual machine.

However after copying the presumed problem modules from the .180 package to the .200 package, I did a wipe and reinstall with the .200 loader and all is running well.

It will take a little time to figure out if the problems with the full .200 are not present but my flip is now running with the mashup os.

The modules I copied are:

net_rim_bb_messaging
net_rim_bb_messaging_app
net_rim_bb_mms
net_rim_bb_sms
net_rim_bb_sms_compose

Mashing up the os versions is probable and possible.

Excellent!

Please keep us all informed as to how things go and if you see any recurrences of the messaging error, screeching speaker phone etc that a few folks have seen on .200

Ok I had one occurrence of an error involving the external screen when I received an SMS message from one of myFaves. It wasn't fatal, I was able to open the flip and read the message and seems to be an isolated incident to just that one message at this point. I didn't even have to pull the battery to correct it.

As far as the screechy phone, I still have that, but I noticed it more so when I hold the phone in my right hand than my left. My guess is that the new phone app has drastically increased the mic gain and the palm of my right hand is grips it just right to redirect the sound from the speaker to the mic. Thus creating a nasty feedback loop.

I did notice that the dial lag is back a little bit, but I will see what happens as the phone goes on with needing a reset.

with all these new carriers, you would think we would get a new OS. still 200 is the highest that i found.

I tried to see if I could find anything in the Beta You Than Me section but those threads confuse my little head. I had to mash up .200 with .180 to get it to work on my phone.

Ok I've been getting the dreded 523 error and I'm not sure what's causing it. A bad app, running the .180 modules I posted earlier with the .200 os, or what.

Any one here skilled at deciphering the Event Log and can identify what's causing my 523 issue? If so I'll post my log.

So far i've only found one fault with this software and its the same problem that my Bold had when it was on ver. 4.6.0.190

When you go into the Music section and then select either Genre or Album it comes up with No Artist so you can't view the artists per Genre or Album name... Yet when you select Artist it comes up with the artist name

Small niggle but still a niggle all the same - if RIM apply the same fix to the next OS update like they did to Ver. 4.6.0.216 for the Bold then i will have (for the first time ever) no complaints on my Pearl flip

fsager · 01-14-2009, 03:13 AM

Well I ended up going back to .180. I started having the same issues as the full .200 install. This is what I can determine.

- The issues with .200 are not in the modules I replaced with .180 modules.
- The problem is somewhere in the OS core or the notifications system.
- It makes me want to drink.
