Just sideloaded it not sure what's different.

That's exciting that you got the update early on in the month! Hopefully more users will chime in soon with their own impressions!

 

[StormnNJ]

Hopefully there is more than what is mentioned. I am still having BT, battery, and radio issues.

I suppose that, if they put just a little more effort into it, they could make the notices even more cryptic and less informative.

Three hours later and my P6Pro is solid as always. My FPS has always worked well and it's still solid and reliable. The main apps I use, Interactive Brokers, Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Edge, Wells Fargo, LastPass, Kindle, CNN, File Manager, WeatherLink for my Davis weather station, are all working well, and my FPS two factor authentication is working just as it should.
