Anyone seeing the .604 OTA update yet?

[darreno1]

Could just be me but I've noticed (or seemed to) better font rendering in the browser.

Could be a placebo effect, but it sure seems that way to me as well.

I think it is better... when I switched from the Droid Incredible to the Droid X, I immediately noticed how the very small fonts in the browser looked really ugly on the X. Like the letters would be inconsistently spaced and not nicely anti-aliased or hinted or something. Definitely doesn't seem to do that anymore.

I think the lock screen is a bit snappier too, but I didn't really pay close attention to it before so I'm not sure.

Well after testing it for a while I can definitely say with confidence the font rendering has improved. Like you said, they are anti-aliased throughout the zoom range now. Nice.

I have noticed less lag with the lock button but that never bothered me before. Scrolling seems to stutter less as well but I have to use it for a few more days to see if it stays that way.

Threads merged, guys we already have another thread on this as well which I left open. We don't need more then two threads in the same area on this.

Thank you.

Pressing home button no longer cycles between home/app list

I've just noticed after installing the update that if I press the home button, it just goes home and if I press it again, it stays on the home screen. With the original stock software, when I would press the home button multiple times, the phone would switch between my home screen and the full list of apps on the phone.

Did anyone else notice this?

I loved that feature. We should put a request together to get it back.

My buttons light after I installed the update. My battery indicator went up after the installation of the update.

Mine was charging when the update installed. went from 30% charged to 70% after the update (which took, what 5 minutes???) and now, 9 hours later, the damn thing is COMPLETELY dead. BEFORE the update I could get at least 24 hours out of it. Now it says the display is using all the battery (with the screen off) and I didn't get 10 hours out of it with it sitting on my night stand WHILE I SLEPT and wasnt even using the phone! Talk about frustrating! Anyone else have an issue like this?? Battery was better before the update... hope this was a fluke!

 

[arabstar1982]

alright, how can my battery go from 30% charged to 70% charged just from this update??? says update was successful though!

lol That'd be hilarious if the update shortened battery life.

I think you jinxed me.... phone didn't last ten hours sitting on my night stand while I slept after the install... used to get 24 hours or more out of it LOL thanks! dancedroid

Wow, boot takes forever now. use to be quick now not so quick.

Not sure if this has been answered yet as Im still reading thread, but boot will usually always take longer first timer after an update.

Try a reboot when the phone's about to die? Could be the battery indicator bug still sticking around.

I also noticed that whatever screen you leave it on. Will be the one shown when you unlock the phone.

I don't recall it doing that before.

Yep, you are correct....good find. I like this change, actually.

ok question, if i do a factory reset now, it will take away the update wont it? that is a last resort if this battery issue doesnt get fixed, but also just curious to know what a factory reset would do now that its had the update....

You can turn that back on in settings

Where at? I know where I can choose the double click of the home button, but what about the single click.

I read where it was supposed to have Kindle, has anyone seen it?
Found it in the mkt. in the VZ section....
Thought I would answer my own question

Yes! The Kindle app came with the update and is very nice! :icon_ banana:
