Is it just me or does anyone else's speaker seem louder. Before I could barely hear anyone if I was trying to use the speaker phone option and now I have had to turn it down.

I noticed quite an improvement in the speaker volume with the update, YAY!!!

My name matches still seem to work

Name matches? Mine will give number matches but not names. Which isn't that useful for me since I don't know anyone's number :)

Anyone else weigh in on this? Would hate to think I am the only one with this problem.

I also noticed the speaker improvement.

Now, if I put a widget on top of another widget, the original widget is not moved to a free area. This didn't happen on my original Dinc and I don't think it happened before GB

We also seem to have the Android tips widget.

Some things that some people may not notice but I did when I had 2.3/4 on my Eris.

The way Settings->applications->manage applications and Settings->about phone->battery->battery use display now has more graphical information to it.

Where/What is this download manager? Is there a way to customize the way you sort things in the app drawer instead just alphabetically or when downloaded/used?

The assissted dialing that I had to change before to make calls from contacts now seems to work on the default setting. North points north in google maps now.

I know these aren't GB upgrades, but they're still nice :)

In the apps there is one called downloads now. Green icon with the download arrow in white click it and it will show you everything in the download folder and allow for deleting of what ever is there. It seems like the only options for sorting in the app drawer is still alphabetical or most recent or oldest.

The GPS North/South glitch is fixed for me, now it can finally get a fix on my location.

Also, I use widgetlocker for my lockscreen as well as the pattern lock. It used to be that I would unlock via widgetlocker and solve the pattern lock to get into my phone. Now after the update I unlock widgetlocker and then the HTC unlock screen comes up and then the pattern lock. Anyone know a fix for this?

I have the same keyboard...I thought it was supposed to be different. No new animation for the lock screen either. Am I missing something?

Nope, you are not missing anything. This is what we get. I'm thinking the Sense keyboard is overriding the Gingerbread keyboard.

WidgetLocker seems to be screwy for me as well. Also, the pattern unlock dots have a wider spacing now. It is much harder to draw my pattern one-handed.

Try disabling widget locker and re-enabling OR disable security and then re-enable.
