New Findings and Fixes thread for Droid 2.0.1 OTA updates

My Exchange email will now allow attachments to be opened! Woohoo! That saved me returning this thing.

Overall it seems snappier and the color saturation on the screen seems better. GPS Status seems to greab more satellites too, but I might be imagining that one. The haptic feedback seems stronger. I'd like to figure out how to turn it down.

Now that it's a sure keeper, off to order teh Seidio case and holster :icon_ devil:

Ditto for me. I am a heavy Exchange email user and had the same problem. Thanks for posting: I didn't think to check. It's working on mine now also. :icon_ banana:

Noticed a new clicking sound when the camera starts up.
Never noticed this before, or may be it was there but just louder now.

this is nothing new. move along.

I will be happy once they get the OTA updates pushed to all phones. I have still yet to receive my update. I know i could do the manual install but its awesome a phone can do it OTA so i will wait and let it take place. Just wish i knew when it would be coming.

Does anyone knows why the weather sometimes doesnt work while on the dock? Is this via GPS or network? The only reason why I ask is because my GPS was acting funny over the weekend. It didnt know where I was and wouldnt navigate me to anywhere

it's not the dock. if you go to get your location through the settings, you'll get the coordinates, but no city name. some people have been reporting outages with their weather service. mine was working fine until the upgrade, now it doesn't work at all.

My phone updated sometime while I slept last night, locked my phone and made me late for work!

Received by OTA update this morning! I need to setup Yahoo IMAP and see if it works better.

Just got my update! Yeah baby!

got it this morning. had trouble logging into FB, but finally got in.

the only gripes i have so far are minor. I don't care for the way the new unlock screen looks, but I'll get used to it.

I don't like that the google search widget isn't butted against the top. That extra little space there is gonna drive me nuts, but what can ya do...

other than that, it does seem that its smoother so far.

Does the update move the uper notification bar down a little? I have a hard time opening it up at times.

I have much better battery life after the update. I am sitting on 15.5 hours unplugged and still have 70% left. Usually at this time I'm down to around 40%.

yea for instance day before yesterday at the end of the day I was at 15%...roughly the same usage yesterday...even after manually updating and not charging (other than the time the phone was plugged in to transfer the update file)...last night evidentally didn't get the phone in the multimedia dock all of the way...just noticed i'm still @ 40%.

Amazing!!

Still waiting myself

Yes, and disconnects the Google Search widget from the top of the screen, so it is easier to pull down the notification bar. You can also now move or remove the Google Search bar as it acts like every other widget now.

That is great news, I kept hitting the search bar when I wanted to get to the notification screen

this is exactly why they created the little gap between the notification bar and the google search widget (should it be placed at the top of the screen) :icon_ banana:
I don't use the search widget but nice to see it taken care of for everyone else.
