My phone kept offering the upgrade, I kept postponing, eventually it threatened possible problems with google apps/accounts functions if I didn't upgrade, so I did... and have been regretting it every second of my life since then. A HUGE 3.92 MISC file (which CANNOT be deleted and is labeled "system data") showed up, on my 8GB phone, instantly setting off all my "storage full" notices.
The overall look and menu options have been rearranged and that is mildly annoying, but I can adjust. The phone overheats and can't handle the 100% brightness setting anymore, which sucks but whatever. The buttons' uses switched (main button and right button functions changed so I'm constantly "accidentally" opening Google which causes me to then have to close the browser and restart the app I was actually using, which ruins my games), but even that, I could eventually get used to, if I had to.
My main complaint, is that my 8GB phone is now USELESS. I did a factory reset and deleted everything, and I now start with 3.63GB free, not even enough to reinstall my necessary apps, let alone pictures or music (and before you suggest it, yes I have a huge 64GB SD card, but it still does me no good for apps). PLEASE help me figure out a way to get rid of this 4GB insult from android??? I really can't afford to go buy a new phone, but if I do, you better believe I will be financing an apple product if need be. Android broke it, Android better fix it.
Oh, and just to add some salt in the wound, my husband has the same phone, bought on the same day, same service provider, and has NEVER been offered/threatened to update.
