Starting a new discussion thread since the previous one has been locked and I'm still curious to hear people's experience with the update. I continue to delay downloading it because of all the concerns that have been expressed here.

It was downloaded to my phone but I haven't installed it yet for the same reason. After three or four days I finally stopped getting the install reminders every 30 minutes. Now I'm wondering how to access it if I decide that I do want to install it.

I still have not received the FP1 update as of 3/30/12 at 6:46am PDT. 

Note to moderator: What's up, why the delay?  Do you know???  Can you tell me in a private message...please?

PS,  KMSTAR, try this.  Touch:  settings>about phone>system updates.

I got the FP1 modem only update - don't really see a huge difference....

Still upset that the static/popping hasn't been resolved and that they removed scrolling backgrounds.

this update file is nearly 30MB - will this count against our data quota? for those of us that are on the 300 MB plan, this makes a huge difference.

this morning, my phone is showing 72MB of data, when it was at 5MB at 6am.  It's trying to download the update file twice.

Thanks Jerry. I'll try that if I decide to install it. Still not sure, but it is nice that the constant reminder has gone away. Hope you get an answer from the moderator...seems like the best way to get their attention is to post something that violates the TOS

Sorry to be so dumb, but what do you mean by the scrolling backgrounds? Is that the live wallpapers that have disappeared or something else?

Be very careful. Installed on Monday, and today (Friday) the phone shut off and rebooted by itself BUT it is currently stuck on rebooting. Went to Verizon and was told phone was "fried" needed to replace.

I like everything about the update EXCEPT that my phone no longer charges with my car charger. It's an old motorola one that has the same ampage/voltage as the official Samsung charger, so I don't know what gives. Anyone else have a similar experience with 3rd-party car chargers?
