    I am having less problems all in all. The home screen has still fallen over once when adding a new widget. I still sometimes get the homescreen filling over into the soft keys area when going through apps and menu's. The navigation is however smoother and faster so far. The calendar entries are now looking stable. I still have Accuweather problems but in general all is a bit better yes.

    What exactly are the home screen errors?

    There have issues with the home screen connecting properly and not knowing what connection it should have. Also Mine crashed sometimes when I added widgets. Also after adding widgets and navigating to other apps or menu's you could still see parts of the Home Screen visible on the right hand side of the screen(when in landscape). The reponsiveness of some of the widgets on the screen was not always good.(It is now from what I can tell). It seems most of the problems had to do with the widgets causing problems.

    You are still having those problems after the update? How bad would you say they are on scale 1 being minimal to 10 being you can not enjoy the phone? I'll take a look at that link now.

    I must say most of the problems are gone. I would say that on a scale of 1 - 10 I would say the issues are low about 4 maybe some days I have no problems, other days it could be pretty bad pushing 6 maybe 7 when I first got the phone.
    But over all the phone is very enjoyable, and the firmware has most definitely help a lot they have done well. Still more to do but they have done well and very quick turn around on the firmware less than 2 weeks .

    When view you tube now, nothing seems to happen (i.e. screen rotate to play videos). Also aftwer my update, I lost nothing, everything stayed the same - files, music apps, wallpapper. Checked which version of softare was running and said 11.0.021. Should i reset factory settings?
