Well I have been using .81 for a day now and I've noticed a few changes from .69. First my free memory has gained about 5mb since .69. Also I noticed a wireless upgrade option under advanced option. Not sure if that was there before. Also the OS seems a lot faster and stable since the last build. I've heard that the browser is faster but I have not noticed any difference. I hope when at&t releases their official 4.5 OS next week that .69 or .81 is the build they choose. Just thought I could add some input for those interested.

That was on .69 also.

I have not had it installed long(last night

) so I don't want to be premature,it seems to be working on all 8 cylinders right now.

I might throw this in...seems the volume issue has been resolved...or I am just used to it now?

I noticed the volume issue started when I upgraded to .55 but somewhere between that and .81 it has been resolved. I'm not 100% sure yet either.

about time =/ the cdma phones had been getting all the love but 69 was definitely rock solid.

anyone notice a faster run down on the battery?

doremus · 09-20-2008, 06:11 PM

Just finished installing 4.5.0.81 I will upgrade tonight. Have not troubles with other upgrades.

Not here.

After a couple of weeks with Bold, turning off 3G to avoid twice a day recharge (yes, really), it's a different world.

Nope,I use bluetooth 99.9% of the time so the battery drain is much faster no matter what...

Battery actually seems fine. Occassionally I seem to get a fast draw down using 4.5, but I think this has something to do with a bum AT&T tower rather than the bb.

Well I just loaded it and it seems to be running pretty smooth. It seems quicker to me than .69.

I also can't get the address book via the send key ( hold for 2 secs ). Too bad cause I just started using this method. Oh well, seems a bit quicker and I also reclaimed some memory.

I haven't been paying much attention to the beta scene lately but I decided to upgrade on Sunday to .81. I noticed my earpiece volume is improved, but the ringtone volume still seems quieter than when I was on 4.2. Other than that it seems to be working fine. Seems a little more responsive than .69 but my camera did flake out on me yesterday for a minute.
