Hopefully they won't remove this update for the Bold 2 weeks later like last time...

Is the java script probleme fixed or do we need to keep it disable?

Is the calendar and social feeds icons change without have to reboot when we changed theme?
I'm using .526 and the only complain I have is I have to reboot everytime I change themes, otherwise the icons will mixed up between icons from old theme and icons from new theme.

Fixed, I have no prob with my themes when I change them then agaian I never had a problem

I have Bold 9700. BUT, it says current OS installed (with 5, not 6 OS)
Are older Bold 9700 not eligible for Versions 6?

Didn't get anything with OTA on handheld but when I plugged into the desktop manager the update appeared.

All Bold 9700's are eligible for version 6. I'm running it on my phone now. :)

I have a leaked version of .461, how do i upgrade to this official version now? DO I just plug it in to Desktop Manager and press update? PLEASE HELP ME, IM SO CONFUSED :(

If you already have the leaked version on your Blackberry there is no need to get the official. Both files are exactly the same. Only difference is that a carrier has tested it out and has approved it for use for their subscribers. Apart from that there is absolutely no difference.

Does the browser still crash when you have more then 1 tab open? Or more then half a page loaded?

 
 
Posted by ryguy2008 Sunday, Apr 24, 2011 393 days ago

It appears to be a bit better...

 
 
Posted by frank372 Sunday, Apr 24, 2011 392 days ago

i don't have any problem with the tabs i can open up to 6 with out any problem but the memory still leaks

 
 
Posted by cribble2k Sunday, Apr 24, 2011 392 days ago

Can you go from www.worldofwarcraft.com to www.mmo-champion.com without crashing (with the full page loaded, since there are no "mobile versions of those) or have each of those open in individual tabs and navigate the sites?

I always get the "low memory" or a total crash of the browser. This is with the native OS6 browser. 88mb free on device, reboot daily.

I will give this version a try though. My only issue with OS6 (or blackberry in general) is the horrible browsing experience. A lot of sites I want to visit on my BB don't have mobile sites, so I need to load the normal versions.

Just tried that out after reading your comment. I opened both pages up at the same time in their own tab's. Then loaded worldofwarcraft.com and switched to mmo-champion.com. No issues at all, loading worldofwarcraft took alittle longer, but no crashing.

Hi friends, I'm from Spain, I'm bold 9700 owner with Movistar like carrier, the oficial OS is 5, but I have used 6.0.0.534 since April 6th, my smartphone works perfectly and BBM runs faster than before. In fact, all OS is faster now. I've not had any problem, I recommend install the new OS 6.0.0.534.

 
 
Posted by aurrymarri Sunday, Apr 24, 2011 392 days ago

When is this sofware coming to t-mobile BB 9700

 
 
Posted by scBold9700 Sunday, Apr 24, 2011 392 days ago

Is it worth to download this one? I currently run .499 and is working perfect for my 9700.

 
 
Posted by spcurtis81 Sunday, Apr 24, 2011 392 days ago

I personally would leave it. I've used the leaked .534 for a couple of weeks having previously run the leaked .499 and I've suffered terrible mem leak on .534. .499 on the other hand was perfect - no problems at all. Don't know whether network influences all this but I'm on O2 UK and .499 is the best I've had yet.

 
 
Posted by scBold9700 Sunday, Apr 24, 2011 392 days ago

ok thank you for your response

 
 
Posted by SC457 Sunday, Apr 24, 2011 392 days ago

I think the official releases are more stable for some reason. They always seem a bit smoother and snappier then the leaks.

 
 
Posted by normix Sunday, Apr 24, 2011 392 days ago

How about the 9780 please!

 
 
Posted by ryguy2008 Sunday, Apr 24, 2011 392 days ago

Your phone came with OS 6 :P. This is to get us 9700ers up to par.

 
 
Posted by normix Sunday, Apr 24, 2011 392 days ago

Yes I know but this is for the 9700 as well as the 9800 which also came with OS 6

 
 
Posted by The_Adventist Sunday, Apr 24, 2011 392 days ago

The only glitch that I have come across with this build is that when you are trying to load a youtube video, it sometimes it resets the 9700.

Sometimes it is a real nuisance.

is it so hard for RIM to provide the change log on the updates?

I have tried many updates since .246 for my torch and the best of all and I recommend is the leak 6.0.0.450, and I have even tried recent updates and have downgraded back to this .450 OS simply the most stable using all tipe of apps including native ones, I won't even try installing this one and I will hold on to the release of OS6.1.

Hi I have a MAC and when I download the new version of the OS on my desktop it shows as a blank page, which usually menas the computer does not recognise the software. If I click on it nothing happens? Any help would be appreciated?

 
 
Posted by soggyomoggy Tuesday, Apr 26, 2011 390 days ago

hows the battery life on this version?

 
 
Posted by poonsaloon Tuesday, Apr 26, 2011 390 days ago

I've only been running it for a day but it seems to be holding up better than .526. Typically my usage is about 40% Calls, 35% BBM, 10% Emails, 10% Browsing, 5% SMS and I'd make it through a day but would need to charge again first in the morning. I rarely use WiFi and my Bluetooth is on for half of my calls.

I'm certainly hoping that battery life is improved because I wasn't very impressed with .526. Hope this breakdown helps!

 
 
Posted by soggyomoggy Thursday, Apr 28, 2011 388 days ago

thx for the breakdown, looks like i'll be downloading

 
 
Posted by drkknyt98 Tuesday, Apr 26, 2011 390 days ago

Installing it in a few. I see if anything is new with my Torch 9800!

 
 
Posted by renders Tuesday, Apr 26, 2011 390 days ago

Running it for two days on my Torch. I was getting two full days of batttery life on version .695 but now only barely get a day. I am reinstalling .695 to compare..

Posted by renders Wednesday, Apr 27, 2011 389 days ago

The old version .695 is DEFINITELY better on battery life. Back to 85% after 14 hours since charged vs down to 10% within 12 hours on the new version.

And my Google maps disappeared??

 
 
Posted by renders Tuesday, Apr 26, 2011 390 days ago

Was it just me or did Google maps disappear?

AT&T NEEDS TO GET OFF THEIR ASS AND COME OUT WITH AN OFFICIAL UPGRADE FOR THE OS 6!!!

 
 
Posted by PPBold Thursday, May 05, 2011 381 days ago

Can I use this release on my 9700 Bold, carrier T-Mobile NL? Or does anyone recommend another release (perhaps .526 or .448)?
