So what is this new update?

[joepa150]

I just updated my wifes's phone. No problems installing that I can tell. I googled this update 55.13.1.en.US or whatever the numbers were. I couldn't find anything on it.

So what are the details of this update?

The Motorola website has the info as does the AT&T page noting the update.

Just updated...

It seems like they have lowered the haptic feedback when overall and it especially noticable on the keyboard. I can barely feel it at all anymore. Which sucks...

Looks like I won't be using the multi touch keyboard as much... Smh

It also removed the carrier iq from the phone.

Yes, I found this as well. I just checked using an Anti Carrier IQ app that scans for it and blocks it from getting sent. I never thought the app actually worked, but apparently it does. Because it says I have none.

Or maybe they just moved it.

Camera works a TON better. Much more efficient, I've noticed.

So far the only negative I see is freakin' screen grabber doesn't work anymore. Anyone have a fix, other than rooting?

The primary differences I have noticed have been major improvements to the camera functionality and some improvement to the "where's my stuff" problem with apps and files disappearing. The WIFI connectivity also seems to be much less schizophrenic and maintains connection more consistently.

Glad I wasn't the only one to "frick and frack" over the now dysfunctional screen grabber app! The market reviews show several posts begging the developer to release an update to fix the problem.

The amount of ram used is much less than before. The camera has improved and the overall performance is better.

I agree...my camera is working MUCH better after the update.

Everythings seems to be working better now, all my apps have stayed and not uninstalled any more. Now just need to get them to update us to 4.0 before jellybean comes out. not holding my breath thou.

The only difference I've seen so far is a new emergency alerts app and the fact that carrier IQ is now completely gone. Several detector apps indicated its presence before but it was inactive. Now it shows as being completely fine.
