I’ve been testing .230 for a few days and I must say I haven’t noticed many improvements from it over .191.
We all know the basics of what 5.0 brings to the field but I will point out a few glitches I have experienced over the past few days (most reoccurring from .191)
- Bluetooth Audio disconnecting after a few songs.
- Media Player silencing songs.
- Home screen refreshing issues.
- Threaded SMS messages not appearing correctly.
- Deleting Prior on SMS not working correctly.
- Bluetooth slow to turn on, sometimes failing the first try.
Overall the battery life is much better in 5.0 than it was in 4.7.1 but you won’t notice much of a difference between .191 and .230
Improvements over .191:
- Speed throughout the entire O.S. is faster.
- Better call quality.
- Slightly faster boot time.
If you have the time it is definitely worth the upgrade from .191 and I would recommend anyone still using 4.7.1.53 (or .40) to give it a shot.
