its been 7 days since USCC store updated me back to the new 2.2. On the first day, I had 1 call that didnt show up on my caller ID but did have a voicemail... but after that... my emails are on point.. calls seem to be all coming in. So far so good!

My phone has been just fine ever since the EE19 update. No lockups/freezes, calls are coming in.

Now if they would just do something about the battery life...

I cannot get the newest update installed on my girlfriends phone. I've tried it 4 times since the 14th and it fails to install. Should I just take it into the store and have them do it?

What exactly is it doing? A problem I had when I upgraded my wife's phone was that the phone shut itself off halfway through the download, and so it disconnected from kies. What I ended up doing was changing her screen settings to stay on for 10 minutes, and while the update was downloading, I'd just mess with the volume buttons every 5 minutes or so to keep the phone on. Doing that, the phone upgraded without a hitch.
Hope that helps, otherwise, yes, you might just want to take it in to a tech center.

The problems I've seen most often on Mez forums seem to pop up with mini-kies updates. I'm not saying its not possible to do a clean update from MK. But if you're having a lot of trouble with it, getting a tech center to apply it might not be a bad idea.

Be aware its a full wipe update when you have them do it. Make a backup!

That's good to hear...my wife's mez has been a little quirky on the update fix, mine is running the Heinz57 rom so I haven't had any issues. I'm considering putting my wife's mez on a different unofficial rom, since her complaints are starting to get a little old I may just need to wipe her phone; that could be part of the problem. Just thinking out loud

When you did the update on her phone, did you do a full wipe update at the tech center, or did you download a mini kies update and run it?

Mine has been running flawlessly (if having a weaker radio/3G signal is flawless, I suppose) since a full wipe re-load of EE19.

Yeah I just did the mini-kies update, so she wouldn't have to re-install all of her apps. But in hindsight, with samsungs track record, I probably should have used Odin and done a pit, then update. I'm thinking of putting her on the leaked/rooted 2.2 that was floating around this forum before the first 2.2 update. I used that and it was rock solid. Or I may put her on the same Heinz57 as I have...has a lot of nice little tweaks.
