Something else I've noticed with two different versions of 4.5 now is reboots when watching videos on http://m.youtube.com.

Previously as soon as I tried to watch them with a beta version of 4.5 it would reboot every single time. Now I just had a reboot with this version of 4.5 after stopping a video then trying to start it back up. It wouldn't start so I closed out the media player and the handset rebooted.

2. The Preloaded Pictures folder is empty. I wanted to get rid of the default blue wallpaper but there was nothing on the device to change it to. A previous beta version of 4.5 had the usual Blackberry theme pictures and such. Nothing here. I may try reinstalling tonight.

3. I use UMA at home, so my 8320 says T-Mobile - TheHouse when I'm at home. I leave Wi-Fi on more or less all the time and when I got to work this morning my device was on the EDGE network with the Wi-Fi icon grayed out, but it said T-Mobile - HotSpot at the top. I brought up the menu and then went back to the main screen and that cleared up.

4. I have two t-zones icons after the install. I checked real quick to see if I had duplicate service books, but I didn't. I just hid one of them (I should hide both since I never use it).

how do you run the memory cleanup?

Go to John Clarks Tip for BB Optimization. There is a great step by step tutorial on how to free up memory. See the link below.

Go to Options, select Security Options, then select Memory Cleaning. Enable it and check out all the different options. If you press the Menu key after enabling it you should also see a Clean Now option.

I'm still messing with mine but I haven't really noticed this doing anything to free up memory on my device.

Dave

[JSanders]

It won't.

Memory cleaning only makes your deleted items "securely" deleted... as in higher wiped standards. It won't free any additional.

sgtcasey - ever notice a reboot while on a phone conversation? I've had a reboot while watching a video, but I also get them while talking on the phone.

[sgtcasey]

Ah okay, that makes sense.

I just found the option to add the icon to the main menu that when you select it runs the Clean Now process.

Options > Security Options > Memory Cleaning > Show Icon on Home Screen

The icon looks like a shredder on my default T-Mobile Zen theme.

Okay, enough messing with the phone. I'd better get *some* work done today.

I upgraded yesterday. It took about a hour and a half for the upgrade and restore. Everything is working ok so far.

Before the update, I ran close to 27m free... After the update, and adding a couple new apps, I'm closer to 22m. I was just getting ready to ask whether, post-update, I needed to run JC's memory Optimization.

Is it generally advised?

Thanks (I love this place)

[boofnut]

after i upgraded to this last night (which is completely stable and works great) I have two Tzones icons. I saw an earlier post saying that someone had the same issue. any reason why there are two tzones icons? anyone else have this?

[dis100]

When will we see latest offical INDEPENDENT(not from any operator - from RIM) 4.5

Because latest independent firmware still is 4.2.2.338

the Memory Optimization must be run with the OS upgrade, generally, but you could do it again, if you want.

Two TZones icons is normal for some reason.

It is very rare for any "independent firmware" to be released. Honestly, there is no difference in "independent firmware" than the firmwares released by the carriers. The only difference is the vendor.xml. The vendor.xml is deleted anyway, making it an "independent firmware." So, in essence, there really is no such thing as "independent firmware" as it's all the same.

I've looked and looked for the "Memory Cleaning" option under Options>Security Options, but can't find it. Is it because I still have OS 4.2 still installed on my Curve 8320?

[ash146]

^^ yep. I noticed the nice little Documents To Go with the new O/S. I did a search and apparently there is more options available with the premium version? I take it this is a pay-for upgrade ...

The HTML email looks okay but I still find empower pro much much better.

[John Clark]

You can get more options just by upgrading the Standard Version to the new version of the Standard Version. There are options for this in Docs To Go.

I have not actually. But then I don't even use up the 300 minutes I have on my T-Mobile plan each month since I hardly use my phone to actually talk to someone. It's all email, IM, and web surfing.

So far I am pushing one hour for my upgrade. It has been at a white screen with hourglass for almost 20 minute. The DM progress bar is actually moving. The wait is killing me!
