Woke up this morning and my Eris was asking to be updated. I am in Ithaca NY This is it's second update. Build is 1.17.605.1 CL104882 release-keys Not sure what it did. Eris was very slow after update but I used Advanced Task killer and it has returned to it's zippy self. May be even a bit more zippy. Firmware is still 1.5 Anyone know what this update does.

It fixes the issue when the user "wakes" up the phone and the screen saver locks or appears the phone is out of service, just a small patch. FYI this update is being rolled out the same was as the previous one.

Not sure I got into work today and saw an e-amil from corporate that said the update was being rolled out. But it seems they aren't really letting people know to far ahead of time or exact dates on these android updates.

The update was 4.6 megabytes. I just got it here in California 10:35pm.

I didn't realize that the lock-screen hang and "no service" was a common issue until I read this thread.

I don't think the Eris will get the Android 2.0 update because the processor is not fast eneough and the update would slow down the phone. It's fine with me the way it is except for the hitch with youtube videos

I live in Rochester NY, and woke up this am to an update. The only thing I have noticed is the phone is a little quicker.

One thing that continues to bother me is all the unused programs running in the background chewing up memory. I used TasKiller to end them, but every hour or so I have to do this to keep programs like Handcent running fast. Honestly my only complaint about the phone. I was under the impression Android would kill unused programs on its own.

I got this strange problem after the update. My internet is working fine but my Gmail says no connection plus I'm using Touchdown Exchange email and that also says I'm not connected to a network. But I can easily and fast browse any web page. I don't get it?

Market also won't work -- I got Market to work now but nothing elsE?
