First BIG problem... "Personal Hotspot" has become flaky. It keeps telling me to contact my provider when trying to switch it on.

Switching from 4G to 3G and then back again seems to fix it but it fails again after a few minutes.

My service provider doesn't have a clue. I'm betting a patch will be released soon.

Hmm.. I've noticed my reception in the same spots as before has dropped significantly (from 5 to 1 bar). Maybe a cell tower is down, but it seems odd, timing wise !

I got a text from them yesterday advising to NOT update to 10 right now due to intermittent connectivity issues.

Me thinks a shared issue, partly 10, partly T-Mobile.

And after the update, the phone was flaky until I did a reboot, but seems to be perfectly fine now.

Meh, I've been with T-Mo for 10-15 years. I have solid stable service, and always have. If I've ever had a problem, it was either due to natural disaster or a problem with the phone which I don't think you can blame on T-Mo.

I do like some of the updates from 9.3 to 10.0. Nothing earth shattering, but a few nice touches.

I probably won't use this new feature much, but it's kind of fun, if you are texting someone with an iphone or I assume ipad running 10.0, after you have typed a message , long press the send button. You'll see some options, there are 5 or 6 screen options when the message can trigger balloons, confetti, lasers, fireworks or a shooting star. You can also get some bubble effects including "invisible ink" where the text isn't readable unless you poke the message.

My phone seems slower and sluggish since the upgrade.
Things like activating Syri accidentally and slow opening apps.

I've closed all apps and rebooted etc.

Is it just me?

Mine is snappier... But only after I did a full reset... On a big update - best to backup and restore the entire phone from upgrade... Otherwise you get all sorts of werid slowdowns and used up memory that should be freed up. I got better speed and 5 gig back on my phone by doing a restore... I recommend you invest the 60 minutes or so and do it clean.
