I just got the new update about 30 mins ago on my Charge. Haven't noticed many changes yet except that it has an ICS-like lock screen now. I don't even see an option anymore to change to the puzzle piece or "glass" lock screen either. Otherwise, I haven't noticed many changes yet. And they STILL haven't changed the color scheme that they said they would change with the GB update. The brown and orange is hard to look at.

That would definitely be a nice thing to do. I've checked on my charge and no update yet.
the other thing is that this update is supposed to solve is the problems with the radios....

I just got the update a few minutes ago. Other than the different-look lock screen, the only major difference I have found is the background image. Previously it was 7 screens wide and would move a little as I swiped from left to right and vice-versa. Now it seems to be static. Does anyone know how to get that functionality back?
I don't tether. I did go outside, turn on gps, and it locked into a signal within 30 seconds!!!

My wife's phone had the update pushed to her phone as well. Strange there was no big rumors of this update and not even FP announcement of the release so it must have been really secret. I haven't seen much of a chance either other than the lock screen. I think it's better now but I know some like the puzzle piece. Interested in the change log and if the GPS locking has been addressed even slightly.
