So I rolled back my firmware back to 8107 and now I can't even get the 8773 update anymore.. anyone else can't update now? Hope that just means that they pulled the update to try to fix it..
Then again, knowing Rogers, it probably just means they're pulling the update and deciding not to support the phone anymore
Finally gave in and flashed my phone to 8779 and everything is working fine now. Reinstalling wasn't as much of a pain as I thought it would be..
The guy from Rogers that was troubleshooting the issue with us on the Rogers forum went quiet about 2-3 weeks ago.. makes me think that Rogers is just going to play the stay-quiet-and-hopefully-our-customers-will-forget approach
