Should I update?

I have a notification to update to 6.2.B.0.200 jelly bean update.

Are there are lot of issues with this update?

Will it make my phone worse after update which is still on ICS?

Please let me know should I update or not based on all the users experience?

Thanks & Regards,

Manoj

Who said anything about 2g and wifi issues? I don't have such problems too.

Most of the people say 2g and wifi is the major issue you can find out in the complete jelly bean discussion thread whereas i never had any issue with 2g or wifi i feel it's fast comparing to ICS, thats the main reason they released .211 update but they didn't clear the camera bug, like you said i'm not loosing any widget when i restart my phone, r u using any app to move your application that will cause this issue. only opera shortcut used to disappear after updating the app i'm not getting that issue now.

Do you use any paid software from Google Play? Because it seems only happens with paid apps. I have 2 paid apps: Smart Tools and Asphalt 7. I have problems only with this 2 apps. For example: Smart Tools flashlight widget disappears after every restart. Asphalt 7 doesn't have widgets but when I place it's shotcut in a folder it disappears too after every restart.

With all my respect but please stop lying people that there isn't more issues besides video recording (it refers to all who claim so).

Hi roshko,

I'm not using smart tools so i don't know about it, and i don't need to lie about anything coz i'm not going to get anything from it, and people without diagonising just like that they say issue with phone,firmware like that, coz all the issues i replied in this forum mostly happen with mis handling, hardware issues or some thrid party apps causing it. even i had screen unlocking issue where i found it caused by screen lock app, please understand ppl or not that dump to belive anything we say.

Regards,

Andrew

As you can see most of the issues I mentioned above have nothing to do with "mis handling, hardware issues or some thrid party apps causing it". They occurs with completely clean phone after Sony Update Service upgrade+Factory reset+Internal storage erase. I reverted to ICS and now I don't have any of the issues mentioned above so "mis handling, hardware issues or some thrid party apps causing it" isn't option. I'm a little bit confused - if you not going to get anything from it why you keep denying the obvious Thinking_Face

Is the 2g issues noticed with vodafone too?

Internet access is priority for me, As I need in emergeny to square off my positions in stock market. Can't afford it not working for a day too..

Hopefully there are no issues with gps system working?

Seeing people responses of the issues with updates, its really a big turn off. I am not sure how many of existing customers will stick to sony in future for their next purchase.

Whats the procedure to revert back to ICS post upgrade if there are issues with JB?
