Anyone Received The Official FH13 Update? Post It Up When You Do

**deedub** · 08-23-2012, 08:11 AM

As the title says, has anyone received the official FH13 update on their E4GTs yet? Would love to know so please chime in when you get the update and feel free to add any comments you may have on it.

Thanks,

Dave

Location won't matter. It's totally random. Also, the update hasn't started pushing out yet. If I were to guess, I'd say it'll start next week sometime.

If it wasn't pushed , I don't think anyone would've gotten their hands on the installation .

Most leaks come out from someone "in the know" - but keep in mind that puts their job at risk by doing so. As such the few I know are EXTREMELY protective of anyone finding out who they really are and only share it with people they have known offline.

I've recieved the FH13 OTA update, but don't notice any battery enhancements as the change log indicates. It has the same battery drainage issue as FF18 has.

It wont fix the battery issue sprint always has battery-gate problems with all releases unfortunately.

SO how can I tell if the update that keeps poping up on my phone is the FH13 or FF18. Not that I'm going to be the guinea pig again. I like mine just the way it is with good ol GB.

And to complicate and confuse matters even more, a FH23 build RDF was just posted today.

Sigh.

We're moving closer to Jellybean! But I'm not upgrading from FF18 til that happens. I've had some SERIOUS screen tearing after going to FH13, and still sometimes on FF18. It never happened before I upgraded to FH13. -___-

**wildacex187** · 08-24-2012, 02:35 PM

On ff18 my phone is clunky and the battery de dies faster. Seriously thinking of rooting this phone soon!!

You can download fh13 through kies on a computer.

Thanks, I updated to FH13 this evening. I am anxious to see how the battery life is.

Sprint has most of the blame. If they're pushing another update consecutively, that means FH13 is just as trashed as the other shifty updates. (See what I did there)

I received the initial and one update for ICS. I am running "S: D710.10 S.FH13". Two things I have noticed since the last OTA, a few Apps are broke when the phone is rebooted. Apps like National Geographic English, Meteor Shower Calender, AccuWeather, Powow, doubleTwist, report they are not responding to name a few. I have cleaned the phone cache for these apps, but still issues at restart.

The other has to do with Bluetooth connections in my 2012 Honda CR-V EX-L. The phone keeps disconnecting and reconnecting to my vehicle's Bluetooth service. My wife's phone (older Sprint model HTC) is fine with the vehicle.

Don't have 4G where we live, so don't know if there are any issues there. WiFi appears to be fine. Battery life? Still about the same.
