So I got Slacker working (:ham: some sites dont DL while using Opera Mini…) and I have to say this time around I’m really liking it. The artist search never worked for me before, the quality seems better than pandora, it doesnt crash all the time like pandora, and I’m loving the songs its serving up to me right now. I might actually pay for it :ohnoes: ---

Auction ended, I got $322.50 for my Tour. :tup: I’ll drop it into the mail tomorrow and this whole fucking nightmare will be over. Fucking Verizon called me tonight and the bitch on the phone starts to tell me that she’s sorry and they actually have a policy that after 3 returns you can exchange the phone. “No you fucking don’t have that policy. I tried and was denied both in the store and over the phone after the 4th and 5th defective phones. If you had that policy I would still be a Verizon customer. _click_” Once you go Blackberry you get so disgusted by the whole experience that you switch teams. :tup: Actually there’s a lot that I miss. The Tour’s a really nice phone. I know I just had absurd bad luck, but Verizon dicked with me far too much. ---

> [@RobHimself](#): > > what are you seeing with it? I was hoping to wait for an official release. All of the screen glitches from .230 are gone. SMS is all better. (kept having to scroll to the newest messages, some messages wouldn’t notify me, etc). Flick scrolling seems smoother now. Transitions are spot on. Facebook 1.7/Tetherberry/SocialScope/BBM5.BRO all work like they should. Battery isn’t draining like it has a hole in it anymore. I’m very impressed by this build. They’re finally getting it right. ---

> [@ryanmcell](#): > > Yes. FB 1.6 and up will link contacts/calendar etc. to your BlackBerry contacts but if you’re on BES, you need to add some new rules into the server in order for it to work. My guess is that in your FB options, it’s greyed out for linking contacts/calendar/etc? They changed the way FB interacts with the server starting with version 1.6 and up. Pop in the new rules on the server and everything will work fine. That’s what I had to do with mine. EDIT: > [@Geehee](#): > > just played with a 9700 Oh. I hear those are verrry nice.
