People with update please post update results

I just installed the update and I still have zero bars and my airave is 20 feet away from me. My wifi signal jumps around from weak to strong. PS my phone is feeling hot also.

I didn't really have signal issues before the update buy my phone feels much faster now. I've only been on wifi though so I won't know more til tomorrow.

It did break tethering

Volume issue not fixed here. My Wifi bars go up & down. Phone signal goes from 2-4 bars. I really don't see any changes quite frankly.

My Wifi signal seems a bit stronger, especially at the end of the house. I get 2-3 bars where I used to get 1-2. But as for the phone signal, it hasn't changed. It fluctuates between one and two bars still.
 
Your phone is broken.

Lol I hope not... I was playing around with my phone and when I call someone I immediately get 3 bars. Then when I end the call it goes back to zero bars. I don't mind that, I just hope it doesn't kill my battery.

I haven't noticed much of a difference. I never really had a problem before with reception though. Everything seems about the same to me.

Everything still the same for me. Only difference is they took away my tethering. So if anything this update is WORSE.
 
My 3G/4G signal issues are, if anything, worse. My signal doesn't bounce around 0-2 bars now....it just stays at 0 bars. I can still get calls but my data speeds are almost non-existent.

My wifi now gets much highers speeds. Probably the only plus I saw.

Tethering is broken

Volume seems to be the same.

Overall, I'm not a happy camper. I'm going to take some videos of my phone's horrible signal and get out of my contract with Sprint (I'm in the middle of their "Best" coverage). I'm probably gonna head to Verizon or AT&T.
 
I dont see any difference after this update. I think the only thing this update did was stop the free tether. My wifi is the same,3g is the same and I still have no 4g. (No 4g in my area) . I think we got doped on this one guys. So do you still trust Google? 2.5 months later we get an update and this is what we get!

My WiFi is very strange now. It bounces from 4 bars to 1 bar. Thats with the phone sitting in 1 spot, next to another vanilla android phone that has a solid 4 bars WiFi without any fluctuation. I'm not testing the speed, only observing the displayed signal attenuation.
 
I seem to have a stronger cell signal (more bars) now after the update, as well as a stronger wifi connection and better 4G strength. So in general the update did improve my phone for my use.
 
3G reception is definitely not any better. If anything, I think it got worse for me.

Worst update ever.
 
I'm getting 1 to 2 bars of working 3G in a building I used to get no service in. Also, the browser scrolling and zooming is much, much smoother. No 4G toggle widget though.

my 3g speeds tripled I am rooted running Miui rom from MIUI.us UNITED WORLDWIDE - News
I went from a consistant 200-400kbs a sec download to a constant 1.4mbs-2.1mbs 3g speed can't test 4g MIUI doesn't support 4G but my market loads easily 3 times faster on 3g also downloads apps faster at least 2x faster signal in terms of bars is up from a consistant 0-2 bars to 2-4 bars so overall im pretty happy hear but I didn't flash the rom I just flashed the RADIO!
 
Only difference I see is the lack of free tethering. This was more of a downdate than an update.
