Been Running on R3
Things I've noticed:
- ICS registries reset after every soft reset, have to be changed over again to handle ICS everytime.
- Messaging
- Took a while to get MMS working, even with all the patches. But patience and retrying works out. In the end, I used Total Commander and just did the registry edits but had to retry a few times. Ended up NOT changing the names, just the settings.
- SMS/MMS Slow. Why? The interface loads ALL messages into memory from a thread before allowing you to type, unlike standard that loads only a portion of the thread. This mean you have to clean your threads out regularly or suffer from lag times.
- Getting "Back" Getting out of a thread, just got to get used to hitting the back arrow on phone instead of a back button on screen
- Random locking. I've had the phone lock up just completely about twice a day. Still haven't figured out a consistency. Lots of times though its going in or out of messaging
- I really appreciate the location services. I live in a backwoods area and my weather is supported from the get go.
All in all I really like it, but am dealing with it's oddities.
Is there another mirror? Rapidshare is unnavailable from my work.
