Oh that would be awesome! I guess if not we will have our answer about if we they plan to give us Sangria or not.

Oh I just looked further this seems to be the update from October not a new one.

2-- for this question and negative comment, I got what I expected - the typical non-answer brush off --> sorry you didn't like OS 3.6.8... we eventually release updates... haven't announced any plans yet... we'll let you know when we do... yada, yada, yada... did I solve your problem?

Oh well; at least they have my feedback.

Bless Amazon I order a case for the Fire phone this morning that just came out and they overnighted it instead of 2 day and will be here tomorrow. :eek Problem is it's coming Fedex and I have no clue when they show up and I have errands to run. UPS will be here later in the day. Thanks to My Choice they give a time frame and I will be back by then but tomorrow is going to be hectic.

Now if I can just figure out why Amazon charged my Card before shipping this one order after I cancelled it and says they didn't charge and it's not pending on my Card the transaction is posted. Tis the season!

That seems to be what happened to me, also. I'm waiting for my statement to come out to check as I didn't see the charge online.

EDIT: No, everything's right. Seems I just made a few more purchases this month than I was aware of.

Oh good I hope mine works out okay too. It's just the charges went straight to posted no pending in minutes from which they appeared which has me worried. I've never had that happen before.

Poetic has shipped me a replacement for my Revolution case. Although I bought another case that will be here today. Paid about the same for it. It's a girly case.

Is the replacement due to the rainbow splotch on the screen protector, or something else?

Yes they are sending a replacement for the rainbow splotches. The case I bought that will be here today isn't a Poetic.

I went to make a call and my battery is dead! It was at 60% when I went to bed. This is not good. I might have to uninstall some stuff. I hate you can't turn off auto updates on apps. That is my guess what happened other than that I'm clueless.

The latest update has caused the battery to drain very fast again. The first models shipped had hideous battery drainage problems - which got fixed right before they cut the pricing. Then the Phone OS was updated (last week or thereabouts) and ever since, the battery has begun draining again - check the Settings screen for battery usage - if the culprit is Wifi you have to put the phone in airplane mode at night.
