i want it on max brightness all the time too

cibs

options > screen/keyboard > brightness auto/off

switch it to off

So im not going crazy, my version doesn't have it.
Could be an older firmware.

shlammed

not older firmware

probably older code

cibs

*shrugs i updated my firmware/code whatever you wanna call it yesterday... 4.2.1.94

but i thought i had it before too... i donno

shlammed

it must be rogers code then

im at 4.2.1.96 now but ive had this feature on my code for at least 6 months

Notorious

Not a problem right now for me, so well see.

I haven't touched any of the code on mine, and i've had it for almost 5 months. I am running 4.2.0.54.


Edit, alex can you send me that link to the new firmware.

just curious, it seems a lot of people on here have Blackberrys (looks like Pearls mostly), those who use it for personal use (not issued by your company) have the "blackberry service (email)" with it?...

cibs

i have my gmail liked up with it... personal use, personal preference...

you dont' NEED it but it's definitely cool to have

shlammed

you mean BIS mail?

my device is corporate but i use BIS mail for my gmail and my hotmail and my yahoo mail

lol promoting much ?

shlammed

ever stop to wonder if current pearl users (note the title of the thread) might be interested in what features the next version may have?

loser

imported_hdave

the next one looks like its gonna be amazing.. any word on price yet??
same price?? i sure as hell hope the price doesn't skyrocket.

shlammed

doubt it would go up at all

imported_viper_2_4

nice!, might actually be able to compare to my Nokia!

shlammed

well you gotta remember its a blackberry first and foremost

the whole smartphone thing was just meant to steal some customers from that market

you can sit there and say nokia has better features but at the same time a nokia can never offer the type of email experience that a pearl can so in the end it all depends on what you're looking for.
