Stock browser seems a little faster loading pages even with flash on. I remember it being real slow but now it is bearable

Unrooted phone, so far everything is perfect. Woke up this morning with 13% Awake time after using it for a while last night.

Before update I was having that pesky problem where if I chose to leave the city label on a clock widget and chose Current City, the time would be GMT. After update, it works properly with leaving the city label on. I love the mute and speaker keys on the in-call screen and the issue with widget names/icons seems to be all fixed too. Now hurry up with 2.0!

I think I'm in the right forum. This is about the new MR update from Sprint released yesterday, correct? If so, I updated through the Firmware Update option under System Updates. I also updated profile and PRL though I don't think that's neccesary. After it installed, I did a reboot and begin using. Since 7:30 AM until now, awake time only 22%. I've been texting and receiving calls this morning as well. I did notice the 2 new buttons on the phone call screen. I think one is mute and the other is volume. Nonetheless, menu and home page transitions seem quicker. So, here's what my Hero was updated to:

Firmware Version: 1.5
Baseband Version: 1.04.01.09.21
Build Number/Software Version: 1.56.651.2
Hardware Version: 0002

I look forward to any other new finds from this release...

so far so good, nothing that pops out at me yet....

the launcher icons was fixed...

nice weather on calendar...

the vertical selector on htc apps is smoother (or maybe it was the reset that did it lol...)

Works great with the Fresh Rom so far

Just picked up the hero last weekend and glad that they released an update this week =D>. I am however not receiving this "weather on calendar" update everyone is talking about. I'm going to try restarting my hero and go back to the calendar, but I do not see the weather being shown on my calendar. Sad face . I wouldn't be surprised however that I'm looking in the wrong place.


Update: Sorry, it was a matter of me having to restart my Hero. Sorry about that everyone

Make sure in your settings/location you have "Use Wireless Networks" Checked intially. It will lad it up then you can disable it after

Updated last night. I'm running stock ROM. The update went smoothly. I do like the speaker and mute buttons on the call screen now. My icon names have changed back to normal as well.

I seem to be running through my battery quicker though.
I left home this am with 98% battery and now (8 hours later) I'm at about 52%. Before the update I'd usually be around 70% at this time of day (without any change in usage). My sleep time seems to be normal (22%), but the battery appears to drop quicker.
I'll have to keep an eye on it to see if it continues to drain at this rate.
