Hmm, I don't know then. I know .240 is a bad build though, you don't wanna even touch that. But I also heard a lot of people at RIM weren't even using this build because it was bad.

I'm waiting to see what the battery life is like with .241 before I make any final decisions on it. Last night I wasn't impressed so I'll keep an eye on it today. I'd also like to hear some feedback on the 3G signal and if it's improved or worse.

So I've learned that using a beta to update a beta isn't bright. On the other hand... I'm updating the phone, right? Again. Don't they have a patch you can wear from the drug store for this sort of addiction?

I removed it yesterday, battery life was horrid to say the least. With .237 I'm getting great battery life and I'm also reading on other forums that .241 isn't a solid build either, it was released to fix the media player bug. I haven't been hearing any good things about .244 either.

WebSurfer Offline Knows Where the Search Button Is Posts: 21 Join Date: Feb 2007 Model: Bold Carrier: at&t	02-28-2009, 08:23 AM I have been running .241 for a couple of days and it has performed fine for me. No noticeable reduction of battery life. Applications including slingplayer beta work without issue. Running Bold on at&t network. Upgraded from .234 which seemed to have some font issues.

arcurlyq Offline Thumbs Must Hurt Posts: 93 Join Date: Feb 2008 Location: Washington, DC Model: 8300 PIN: N/A Carrier: AT&T	02-28-2009, 08:59 AM I'm still running .167. I'm a tad risk-averse when it comes to by BB and just want to upgrade to the next official version (.221) or maybe .237. Is there any way to do this OTA? I don't have the desktop software. Thanks!

I have tried everything I can think of to get it back. It shows to be installed by the App Loader. But it doesn't show up in the Instant Messaging folder or any other folder. Very strange.
