Guest MetalSlug Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Is battery life really that much better? Can someone go about their daily routine and tell how much of a difference the battery life is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest the_matrixx Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 I am pretty much in agreement with everyone's feelings about this update. I was hoping that 6.1 would be a part of it.

Guest daslabaugh Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 How ironic: Their screen shots on the Update page all still have the large E in the center. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Monolithix Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Why would you not want the big E icon? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest daslabaugh Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Why would you not want the big E icon? :) Oh, don't get me wrong, I do want it... its just funny that the very update they're advertising gets rid of it, that's all. Someone in QA must've fallen asleep. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Monolithix Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Yeah, exactly! Those having issues with the icon, do you mean the large one supposedly removed or the little one over the signal bars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Midian Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 WOW has anyone compared the registry yet? i just got done with it and alot has changed!!! im testing a few things now. if you know alot about registry editing i suggest you compare both the old and new regs. appearently microsoft/t-mobile didnt tell us that there is a s**t load more support for bluetooth models now, more security, etc. all the minor details are important to know as well -___- look like we will have to find them ourselves lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sumasage Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 what about the internet with the 5.95 plan, still good? I want to know too. Can someone who updated confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Midian Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 I want to know too. Can someone who updated confirm? yup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mmmike42 Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I recently upgraded and think it has helped the phone run better and the battery lasts a little longer. I went on a road trip today and the big "E" showed up in the tool bar at the top while I was roaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pobresucka Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 can someone please upload this somewhere and post a link to the actual download?
