The update takes more than one hour and is still in progress. What is causing this behaviour? The FW is downloaded to the computer. It should not take that amount of time. |

No, no. My CDA is 65 so I have to wait for a month or so, but would like to hear about fw improvement. From the other side if there is no improvement in memory management than I dont have any need for upgrade because with this fw I have a fully stable and reliable phone (absolutely no self restarts or crashes or apps bugs). |

Guys please, 9 pages already and almost nothing about fw itself. Tell something about memory leak, multitasking, apps optimisation if any etc. I am eager to hear about it.
Memory leaks still exist dude... There is no difference...
Applications optimisation??? I think a little bit is done...
Multi-tasking is also slightly better but much can't be done unless there is more RAM in the phone... |

it should take around 15 minutes once it starts transferring to the phone
is the % increasing?
edit: that was for MG7... posts here are coming thick and fast!

No, it shows 100 %. Same thing happened during the previous upgrades.

I've had that before. if it gets to 100% and has been there for a reasonable time then just unplug and its always been fine for me
if not just connect up and start again

@hgautam
Thank you very much. I didnt expect some large improvements so even slight one is welcome. I hope opera is among optimised apps. |

Memory leaks only had minor correction, BUT most native apps use less RAM now, including Opera, Contacts, Messaging, etc, so there is a net effect that improves multitasking
Plus, menu speed is way faster due to animations being off, java apps load faster (try using opera mini), opera seems finnaly stable (new version), there is a new quickoffice version, etc

Ok, I always thought there was a risk of doing it. Now I know better. |

Opera appears to be definitely more stable. I've been surfing with 4 pages open switching back and forth between video and music over the last 2 hours.
There was one freeze initially, but it resolved on its own and not a single crash, freeze or self-kill since.
BTW I've started a separate thread for the new BB Connect required for this new firmware for those interested, here :
