All Discussions regarding the OTA update (Sprint re-released the update - 6/29)

[kash23]

Update is nice. Do not panic like OP said. Phone will reboot a couple of times but this does not mean your phone is bricked like posted in other threads. Noticed after initially load up after update scrolling between home screens are a bit laggy but that eventually goes away. Apps are much snappier and screen is much more responsive to your touch(not that it was bad to begin with out the box) Overall im liking the new OTA update but i can't wait till FROYO!!

That does make more sense. I assumed he was wanting to use AW Launcher or Launcher Pro, not the stock Google launcher.

ah k, well i'm not positive about third party launchers, but i updated the first post to reflect that i'm talking about default android 2.1 launcher.

Yeah your title says " breaks disabling of HTC Sense" which is not true since you can disable it. It should read removes Stock Android Launcher.

Just install startup auditor from the market and check google talk to not open at startup and later (two separate check marks). It works as acharm. Never again opens.

This is correct however, Gtalk will still pop up as active in your services tab. This is because it is related to your email.. I think! I have mine set to not sign in on start up and I sign out. However it still pops up. I am almost positive this is because its integrated with the email. Also just because its showing it does not mean your are signed in. Its not using more battery because you are not signed in. Trust me.

I don't know...I'm currently at 58%. This is not normal for my phone. I usually don't reach that level until 6-7pm. It's currently 1pm where I live.

When I stop the service, battery is stable. When I notice it sinking rapidly, I check service and gtalk is running again.

It's the only that's different after the update (that I'm aware of) that has the potential to do this to my battery.
