Can’t check voicemail or even do a simple dial out. The second the dialer page pops up the screen goes black and refuses to relight, and the touchscreen fails to recognize anything. Also deleted my weather app and cleared 2 widgets and 4 apps off my home screen. Yuck.

Simply a horrible update. Do the powers that do any in-house stress testing before employing updates? This update is absolute crap. I have to reboot my phone multiple times throughout the day because programs fail to operate and I must force close them. Ordinarily this little issue wouldn’t be anything more than a minor nuisance except it is affecting my home screen and I can’t access any parts of the phone until I reboot. Terribly disappointed.

Several problems here. When I get an email/text/etc., the little indicator light flashes red (like when the battery is low) instead of green. 4G connection is very spotty whereas it used to be very strong at my work and at home. Wi-Fi will turn back on when I just turned it off and it rarely works. The battery is draining extremely fast, about 50% faster. K-9 email doesn’t send my emails most of the time, some kind of java error pops up. I can adjust the volume, but the on-screen volume indicator/slide is either at 0% or 100%.

I HATE this new update. I was excited to get it when it popped up on my phone, but it has done nothing but cause problems! my text messaging system does not even work anymore (I have been a loyal user of Handcent SMS for 3+ years), and when I try to even use the default text messaging app that comes with the Droid 4, it still won’t send! My phone doesn’t recieve messages as well. My calls will not let me talk longer than 10 minutes before hanging up. And I have to constantly restart my phone just to get apps to work. If I could, I would go back to before this update was presented, and avoid it as long as possible. BEWARE!
