Rogers GDR2 Update....Update

[CellularMan]

From clicking "check for update" it took exactly
20 Minutes - to get to first reboot and spinning gears
33 minutes - to get to Migrating your data (step 2 of 5).
48 minutes - install complete one last restart needed
49 minutes - all done phone ready to use

*note my phone has a lot of apps installed, so the process time may vary*

Data sense is included and pinning to start screen
Google search still available in IE options

Microsoft should seriously put a progress bar under the spinning gear, we have no idea how much the update has completed. Took me 30 min to go from the start to finish of the spinning gears.

Edit: Doesn't seem to fix the other storage issue, i still have 14.30gb of other......

Just compared the start up time to my other 920 that is still on 1314 and the phone starts up about 2-3 seconds faster now

Also, Internet sharing was broken after the update, had to run access point and switch to Virgin and then switch back to Bell and restart.

hey Pankaj,

how's the network acting on the euro dev? I'm hoping it's better than the 1308

Yeah please post your results, want to check hows the performance. I have flashed the Euro Dev so would switch only if the performance is better or similar.

Cellman, are you on Rogers?

EDIT: NVM saw your following post on access point

would be great if you could post the speedtest

much appreciated

Funny. The update is not on NCS. Still says firmware 1314 when you search on it...

Network performance has definitely improved. I used to get 1 bar of T-Mobile LTE sometimes at my home but now its showing 3-4 bars of LTE throughout the house. Also data connection is faster and phone doesn't get hot for using any cellular data consuming apps.

Downloading now. VERY glad to see reports of Data Sense being installed with the update.

Yay, what a great coincidence!

I just hit "phone update" like half an hour ago and then ditched my phone while I ate. When I came back it said there was an update available but I completely forgot I hit "phone update" and just pressed download (I had just been downloading 6tag immediately prior and forgot that it already finished). Then I noticed that the title was "phone update" and I was so damn confused... you people are on the ball. Phone is taking its time to download the update now via Wifi. Hope that goes smoothly.

Can't believe Rogers actually gave us Data Sense, need to really reevaluate how much I hate Rogers...

One thing I noticed pretty quickly is say when you are opening the menu while using the camera it would stutter and lag for me, now it is much smoother.

I do not see FM . People who went with French or Euro flash they got FM . Any one getting FM

Didn't think Rogers would implement it either, good to see.
