Kev maybe this should be left out in future versions? Not only would it speed up the install it would free up some memory as well. Just let the user download and install if wanted? just another of my 2 cents

either way, you'll still be my favorite chef
I didn't realize the update was such a large file. makes perfect sense why it would hang like that. I still think it's a cool app but given that the flute and guitar aren't functioning, it does seem like a lot of memory for half an app.

Thanks for the recommendations above with the radio. I went ahead and flashed it to Sprint v1.11. Can't say I've noticed a huge difference so far but I'll monitor it. My one big beef with Sprint is that in the 10 plus years I've been with them, while living here, reception from the tower has never significantly improved. Also causes a drain on my battery since the phone is always trying to lock in a signal. Maybe after I take a break from flashing I'll try the Telos radio.
