Froyo OTA: First Impressions

[mcaspe1]

Can more people confirm or deny the rumor about your apps getting wiped. Thanks

your downloaded apps will get wiped if you install the RUU.

Found an issue with the calendar in this update. You can not edit past events. Only way to do it from the handset, that I know of so far, is to go to the calendar by way of the browser and do it there.

Update:Thanks to mjs31 over at incredibleforum.com he has a solution other then mine. http://www.incredibleforum.com/forum...html#post36891

Also battery issue is not fixed. Not happy about that but I guess you can't have everything.

Does anyone know if the "phone storage is getting low" problem has been fixed in Froyo?

Could anyone confirm that slacker and other music apps are working properly?

I noticed that a few of my apps are FC'ing more now....when I rooted to 2.2 with the leaked ROM, I had he same thing happen and just assumed that it was a problem with that ROM. It's not as bad with the Official OTA, but it's still happening.

and the music app now doesn't list my albums by artist names anymore. They are listed under "Unknown Artist" and when you click on it, it lists all the albums names. I don't like this at all....why would they even change that?

to answer the Slacker question, I had a few "Playback problems, please press play to restart the channel" things popup last night, kinda annoyed me too.

How about the sound quality? Is it any different?

Pandora works great on my phone just like it did on 2.1 sorry I don't use Slacker so not sure how it works.

My music list is by artist last name just like before not sure why your having problems. Maybe remove your music then re sync it.

I have not had a FC yet and my sound quality seems to be the same.

Do you have to bump charge anymore?

[geoff2004]

just wondering I haven't gotten my update... Did they quit doing it or something..

 

[jdazzr]

Practically none of us have gotten it You're not alone.

Hold Tight

just wondering I haven't gotten my update... Did they quit doing it or something..

It's probably being phased out over time to not overload their servers (and make sure they don't suddenly get flooded with support calls). It may take a few days for it to show up. If a lot of people don't have it by next weekend I'd start to get concerned.

Is it just me.....or does it seem to take longer get a full charge since the update?

 

[Gregorylax]

All of these posts about a possible wipe when doing the OTA update is making me slightly nervous...I'm still kind of new with this phone, anyone know of a good backup app?

I just installed mybackup the free version and it seems to work great
