Hopefully, from the vids I've seen it looks good - but Honeycomb looked good until I used it.

Jay what version of the Android OS is the current one?

I'm on 2.3.3 but when I plug my phone in to Kies it tells me the software on there can't be updated  :angry:

I think Samsung locked it out when they reflashed it during the repair...

The latest for phones is 2.3.7 (which I'm running, is 24 days old :smug: ) though the version of Android you use doesn't matter that much in reality, it's the functionality that the ROM brings that matters the most :smiley:

What phone is it? Is this lack of software updates causing you a problem?

Not really I just like to be up to date with things lol

It's a Galaxy S, I do have to force a soft reset every few days as random apps lock up the phone though, even the e-mail app  :angry:

Take a backup with MyBackup Pro(use the free trial  :wink: ), do a factory reset give it a few days with minimal apps and see if it happens again, if not restore the apps & data using MyBackup Pro and see how you go from there.

Otherwise take it back and get it replace, take a MyBackup Pro backup before returning it though and keep the backup found in the rerware folder on your PC/SDcard.
