It's been released to partners. It's probably leaked out to the net.

Any major differences between 4.6.0.126 and 4.6.0.134 besides better onboard memory management? If you've unlocked the vendor themes would you please post screenshots? I heard that all vendor themes are now all bottom zen themes, is that true?

I'll probably know myself in about 3 hours when I get home this morning after work.

Seems to run a little smoother than 126, also more free memory on boot

I now have 44Mb free memory!

I wonder if it will fix some of the issues Kevin at CrackBerry.com has been having with his browser tests:

I just did a quik test of loading the crackberry.com over wifi with javascript on and it took about 1.10 minutes compared to Kevin's test of 3.17. So there's a big improvement.

For those of you currently using 4.6.0.134 are there any other major differences to report? How's the overall volume with this OS? Still loud or no? (Reason I ask is there are times where with my pevious device I'd load an OS and it wouldn't ring as loud after the OS update but I'd roll the OS back and it would be loud again). Any memory leak issues with this new OS?

Just tested it and it rings very loud still. In regards to memory leak issues, I think that this will never be resolved 100%. I have yet to have any errors relating to mem leaks anyway with any bb device I've used.

Are you in a 3G area? Were you able to test 3G with JavaScript?

Just did the same test over 3G with javascript on and it was 1.34 minutes compared to Kevin's 1.52. A slight improvement. At least now it comes up with proper results in that wifi is faster than 3G.

Btw, just a FYI, the bold will not work properly on T-Mobile cause they don't have the proper service books for it.

For those of you who have installed 4.6.0.134 who are on Rogers Wireless how do you find 3G connectivity? I read on another forum that this OS version will give you EDGE more than 3G regardless of what area you're in.

Even 4.6.0.125 was giving me more EDGE than 3G in my neighborhood. Same issue with .134. If I force it to use 3G, I get 4 bars. If I use 3G and 2G, it will start with 3G, some time later falls to Edge and never comes back to 3G.

Where might one "stumble" upon this and is it worth doing on a Rogers Bold?

What could possibly be taking up 60+mb of memory on the phone? From the curve 8320 I have 16mb free. Do you have alot apps or something?

On a Rogers Bold, (previously upgraded to .126) this was another good update. I have not discovered anything obvious in terms of new functionality. I am in Sydney Australia when I tried this upgrade (having just downloaded the original Rogers release for emergency restore, just in case). No issues. It seems that WiFi is quicker to connect.

Down to 12.4mb after a couple of days. Still a memory leak but much better than the stock OS.

Did it not occur to you to try Google? I found it and was downloading within one minute.
