Although I am using one of the JF roms… the update notification kept showing up. When I -finally- decided to let it run after reading all the comments here, my phone restarted but would Not install the update, as the JF recovery console said ‘Verification Failed’…

when you get into the manage apps section of the settings, click on the market… It will give you an option to clear cache.

My phone is bizarrely much faster as well.

Which is good, little guy was getting so slow I was going to reinstall android, but now it’s wicked fast.

TO MAJ:
Your problem with the market updates can be fixed by going to settings, manage apps, and clearing the market cache…

I got the update yesterday. I have noticed the phone runs faster… Prior to the update my phone would auto connect to wifi without me selecting me. I would force it to be off and it would be turn on at random times.

So far my apps all seem to work fine.

I got the update this morn (8:19am PST, In Las Vegas )and golly, I was hoping something awesome had happened. Realistically, I knew it was just a bunch of patches, but the sad little fanboy in me kept wishing; *Hero ROM* *Hero ROM* *Hero ROM*. That voice has since died. *tear*

I got it. Phone seemed to pick up on performance but thats probably because of the reboot….who knows. There is nothing noticeable at all.

Looks like the update screwed up some Apps’ 3G connectivity.
I.e. DilbertDroid.
Worked fine before the update (when author released a patch), now it works fine only with Wi-Fi, and force closes on 3G.

Seen one more problem on som eother app but can’t recall the name.

I’ve not gotten the update yet. I seem to be in a later bracket as I remember getting impatient and doing the manual update for 1.5. I saw a thread over on a mod forum that said this update is even trying to auto update on rooted G1s. It seems to be affecting a few different roms.

Now if they rolled out updates more often…Like donut without annoucing anything that would be nice. Just release it when its ready and not mention it until the first posts about it start coming up. That way we don’t have to hear wheres my donut….like we did with cupcake.
