Wow seeing some of the side by sides of the droid x to other phones, I am kinda digging it. May need to wait till july when everything comes out and check each one out. Seems verizon is pushing incredible pre orders into changing to a droid x so wonder if the incredible will be end of sale sometime soon and replaced. ---

Has anyone done the 2.1 “upgrade” on the hero? My phones been a total frickin nightmare since I did it. Ive done a re-install of the software per htc’s suggestion. Ive had sprint re-set i 2 times, Ive reset i a dozen times. Its very laggy, reboots sporadically, delays in answering calls and making calls, internet doesnt always work (gotta turn it off and on for it to work). Ive checked multiple sites and this seems to be common. Just want to see if anyone else has this problem and got farther then me with sprint or htc… Ive talked to both multiple times and they never offered a resoultion to my complaints. ---

Sorry I can’t be of more help. Mine has been the same before and after the update, no rebooting and no problems with apps or internet. It isn’t overly laggy imo. I did just get it a few weeks ago though, not sure how old your phone is for comparison. ---

phil…if you have done hard resets and its still an issue…i would just go back to 1.6 to be honest… or root your phone and install a custom rom with 2.2 on it ---

now that I have root, I doubt I am going back to stock. Wireless Tether for root is the balls. F verizon’s $20/month BS Froyo is pretty good. Nothing breathtaking though. It’s a minor upgrade, and Verizon is sure to cripple the built-in tethering options. Also, one big thing I was looking forward to is FULL activesync support for exchange, but there are still some policies that haven’t been implemented, and my organization requires just about everything, so I am still fucking stuck using touchdown. So that’s definitely a letdown. ---
