Its alright, i'll be totally satisfied when they release the update to fix data drops. It also restarts itself sometimes but as long as it doesn't happen too often I can live with it.

Well, I've put the 5.5.893 and the 5.6.893 leaked OTA updates on my phone and I can report, that on phone, these updates solved the camera issue, music stutter, wifi to 3G hand-off and the 3G to 4G to 3G hand-off. Also, I've not had a seconds worth of data disconnection either (this is totally true for 3G, but I can't claim too much for 4G as I'm almost never in a 4G area). I was in a 4G area today and the switching between 3g-4G was great. During that time it did SEEM that the 4G signal was stronger, but that is just a "seat-of-the-pants" statement (and I haven't had my seat-of-the-pants calibrated in months and months!!). YMMV!!
Good luck.

how about the high pitch noise is that gone with the update?
 
There are a few things I'd like different, but those can be fixed with updates.

Overall it's a great phone. Should do me good for 2 years.

I'm not. My phone is at the point it rarely has data, and under moderate usage it goes down 30% battery per hour. I have two batteries and consider all of it ridiculous. My droid x (pre-setcpu) would get 10-12 hours on a charge. I've also had the "unintentional recipient" text message glitch MULTIPLE times. The data dropping didn't get really terrible until after my return period was over. No, I'm not satisfied.
 
I concur with scdown, I too like the phone in general but the data issue is a big FAIL. also is the bsod.

@nubia,

Now the BSOD is another issue entirely. After a factory reset a couple of months ago, and not reinstalling GO Launcher and GO Weather Widget, I have yet to have another BSOD.

Note, I'm not blaming this on GO, or even suggesting you have it, but I do believe that there is some combination of software and this firmware that doesn't work well.

Have you tried a factory reset, and if so, has it had any effect?
