I love this update! My only question is can u hide the bloatware apps after u uninstall them? I was told that u could but I haven't figured out how.

MY phone restarts constantly, every 5 mins. Everthing is slow, sluggish. Gmail is always asking for permission and the phone freezes and locks up constantly. I'm completely stock, never rooted. Anyone else?

Also, what happened to swipe to delete? Did HTC disable that as well?

I'm not experiencing any of those issues and I'm stock too. My phone is much faster now. My only issue is Play Store freezing when opened from a notification alert for an update. Otherwise it opens fine.

Swipe to delete is working for me and others I have been around for the past two days. I haven't seen others post this issue yet.

Do you use a sd card? When i take my sd card it works just fine, when I put it back in, it's constant locking up and restarting. Swipe to delete not working in gmail at all...

Just the 8GB one which is almost full. I'm constantly having to make room as I did to get this update. I thought that the lack of free space would cause me issues with ICS, but so far so good.

I have noticed that after I make or receive a call and hang up, about a second later my phone rings for about half a second then stops. I thought I was missing calls, but I can reproduce the issue after EVERY call.
I am guessing I have an app that is causing this. Going to start removing my GoogleVoice-related apps. Anybody else experience anything like this?

My play store hangs when I access it through notifications as well. Instead of going back to the home screen and back to the play store, I just hit search and look for a random app then hit my apps so I'll be back to updating apps.

What I don't like about the update is that they bundled facebook with it. I hate facebook

I thought three was supposed to be a new keyboard with this update. It seems exactly the same to me...

Someone mentioned not being able to uninstall the bloatware apps... I think this changed with gb as before it kept bugging me to update blockbuster... I've never used blockbuster and I thought I had uninstalled it. I've kept these apps up to date because I have the space and if I try and remove them, all its going to do is annoy me into reinstalling them. Typical scumbag cell phone company, pushing these pointless bloatware apps onto us. What's really sad is that when the phone originally came out, you could remove the majority of the bloatware, at least the sprint branded bloatware.

I'm so glad to have a nexus device, it makes me feel like I just showered after not doing so for over a year :-P

I just hit the context button and chose My Apps. I also despise Facebook. I wanted to try out Spotify, but I refuse to open a Facebook account, so no Spotify for me.

Think I might like GB better, ICS is buggy on 3D

I'm pretty sure the swipe to delete is only for notifications

Actual,my eq settings make it louder. Or s i think anyways. I use rock for everhthing. It boosts bass,makes the sound clearer,and i also change the eq of my headset to boost bass so i got great slunding music.

So far I have not had one single issue with ICS. No rebooting, freezing, ect.. As for stock apps that I had removed before the update (Blockbuster, Sprint TV, ect..), none of them even show up in the "My Apps" list on Play Store anymore. Before ICS they would always be there as needing to be updated. I couldn't be happier!

The only problems I've had were notifications were a bit janky. I pretty much had to reset the sounds, etc.

What other features should I be looking for? Other than some slight visual differences, I'm not seeing a massive difference.

Folders are improved. Try dragging one app into another app on your screen. The 2 will combine to make a folder only there won't be a ugly folder icon,, there will be a box with both apps in it with both icons visible.
