Really ridiculous actually..

On a positive note, Wireless works much better for me, having no issues what so ever and I can confirm I was able to connect to my DIR-655 wireless router using an N connection (65mbit so says the android wifi connection indicator).

Speed seems to be equal to what it was prior to the update.

Same Here... after the update the battery life got worst, the wifi got better and the ShootMe app is broken.

Also it seems like the EVO got a little bit slower than before the update.

Did my update this morning. I now.am unrooted again. May leave it that way for a while. No issues during the update for me.

i tried to upgrade last night but i get a failed report..it says something about Qik apk. has anyone had this happen to them. i am fully rooted running OMJ 1.5v.

Im sure mine worked because I was only on the unrevoked root and not a full root

I downloaded the link from muffinman, but I don't know how to install it. How often will my phone prompt for the update? It prompted me last night, but my phone was near dead so I skipped it thinking I could just manually do it later.

i did the update when it was first released at 650am... after seeing all the issues ppl were having with the update i have been concerned. the only issue i noted was that my picture txt would not send, this morning i recieved a prompt for an update.... has anyone updated with this yet?

...so...since I've now successfully installed this update...and I'm not root anymore...I can't re-root huh?

I just tried to run the stock RUU, and it errors about the boot loader...I was hoping to be able to remove all the sprint nav and nascar and football and amazon/qik nonsense...guess I took the wrong approach to this?

right now there's no way to root if you applied the stock OTA update. they're working on it over at xda and unrevoked. here's the link to the xda discussion. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714157

fingers crossed! many of us are in the same boat.

No offense to the guys doing the unrevoked thing...but thats nonsense...if I can't delete files on the phone, it's a waste of my time. I've used wireless tether for a few hours since getting the phone, which unrevoked if it worked would do fine...but I'm MUCH more concerned about not needing to kill sprint nav, amazon, qik, and all that other nonsense all the time because it's just not there to begin with...the difference in battery life when all that other crap isn't always popping up and loading in the background, is just ridiculous...so I'm happy to wait for a real root to come along...I wish I knew how to help, but I am just not up to speed on what it takes.

I installed the new update today and now it is prompting me to update again - is this happening to anyone else?
