Anyone see any new functions from the new update, besides the new 3G Icon??
No reboots here. I still loose 3g often but it regains it back much quicker. Also easier to toggle LTE on and off.

I never had random reboots before, but atleast for me the GPS is locking on so fast I love it.

I had reboots all the time. None since the update.
Haven't seen anything worthwhile yet. I never had any reboot problems so this update did nothing but put more bloatware on my phone. I think its time to root.

I'd just like to say that I miss my old boot screen. And the new 3G icon looks like someone stepped on it. Other than that and the my Verizon app I haven't even noticed the update. My reboots stopped a few days ago, I had 4 days 9 hours and 2 minutes of uptime when I installed the update.

Please stop calling it mr2.5, we have a real MR2 out soo any radio before that is MR nothing it's just a leaked radio you will confuse people by saying mr2.5, when the actual MR2 OTA is out.

Its gone, todays radio made the phone even worse for me, always had a crap signal to begin with but it got almost unusable after the update, i was gonna get a charge but......the store said they have moved back the date to a TBA again, he also said they bionic has been cancelled, i was left with no option but to go back with the iphone, i almost went with a galaxy S, but ive had one of those upto getting my TB and didnt really wanna go back to something i had already had..
To sum it up, the TB is a great device that lacks the testing it required, it seems to have been rushed out with horrific battery life even with custom roms its still crap for heavy users, and poor signal..
Ill buy one again if they get there crap together and fix the obvious faults, but until Verizon releases a good dual core android im gonna have to stick with what i know.
Cool story, bro.
cool story bro, tell me again with subtitles.
I don't notice any change after the update
ThunderBolt isn't for everyone I guess. I love 4G and I can work with the small battery.

Yikess......not sure where you live, but I get fantastic 4 g everywhere in Chicago, have had 2-3 random reboots since I bought on day 1 (which could be less that the reboots on my Dinc), and get reasonable battery life, best phone I have yet to own.
Not to crap on your post , but I took my ip4 back because of bad service. My TB will hold service where the ip4 wouldn't. I will take service over battery anyday.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
Interesting.... You took it back, after being rooted and applying the update (that's what your other post said) sounds like someone may have messed up...
I just had 4G turned on in my city (Sacramento) a few minutes ago.. I've had the phone for a while and it rocks!!!.. I am surprised you've had so many issues with your phone.

Yeah and at least you can change the battery when it dies.. You can't even do that with the iPhone, what a great "feature". Two batteries and a stand alone charger only cost $10 on eBay. Besides I get over a day of battery anyways. I think the real problem existed between the phone and the ground...
I've loved my TB since day 1 and have no problems with it other than a slow to find me GPS. I love this phone and would have to agree that the problems for many seems to be between the phone and the ground. Rooted with DasBAMF 1.6.3 FTW!

Great speeds. I've gotten up to 17 Mbps down. I notice you are getting really high pings like I sometimes have. Anyone know why they are so high? I never got anything close to those pings on Verizon or AT&T.

Think we need to wait for the kernel sources to be released, I get really ****ty speeds on CM9, and I believe it's because the kernel is only optimised for the stock ROM.

No, not me. But it may be a hardware issue. My older Droid Charge which was 11.04 on FP1 had a better time with mobile data than this newer Charge which is 11.07 and FP5. Not sure what to do about it yet.
I would say that FP5 + Tweaked 3.0BnBbeta is by far the smoothest experience I've yet had on the Charge. It may stay just like this until I figure out a new phone sometime (probably Jan). I'm currently 'fighting' my daughter over her desire to 'upgrade' from her Charge to an iPhone 4s/5...

ever since FP1, I have noticed ZERO difference in battery performance when comparing 3G to 4G. I believe that was the intention of the kernel upgrades.

If I'm using my phone heavily, I'll definitely drain on 4g. I have great coverage where I live and work. 3g is definitely much more conservative on the battery.

The first thing I noticed after the update was improved fingerprint recognition. I've never had issues with my thumbs not reading, but it seemed my index fingers had to be perfectly aligned in order to unlock my phone. Now they work at off angles and much quicker.
I also promptly froze the Gear VR apps since I don't want to risk battery hits from something I won't use.
Anyone use stock messaging? I'm curious if the awful delay when trying to send a message is gone.
Just a question. With the app optimization do we still need greenery? Just wondering.

Weird thing I noticed was when when I factory reset after I took the update factory recovery was saying something about dfverify tree or something like that.
Interesting; I just had my Note5 unlocked and with my AT&T SIM in, I was able to download and install the update OTA.
Happy to see all known Stagefright vulnerabilities are now addressed.

SIM cards are used to determine OTAs for Nexus devices. But you are correct that they typically don't matter for other OEMs because each carrier gets a different model number assigned to their hardware variant.

I'm already noticing improved battery life.
Unplugged for 3.5 hours, and in the marginal LTE/H area that I am for work, I would be down 20% or more with light usage. As of now, I'm at 89%.
Is anyone else experiencing issues with Text Messages? I'm using the stock messaging app (after I started having issues with EvolveSMS). I'll get the same text messages from someone 5 to 7 times, kind of getting annoying when my S2 vibrates and get's blown up with notifications.
