Discovered More Broken Stuff After ICS Upgrade

So there is plenty wrong with my Captivate Glide after Samsung botched the ICS upgrade. The keyboard no longer lights up, the phone app freezes and crashes, Bluetooth crashes, apps that were previously stable crash at random, and the phone locks up at random.

I had to reboot the phone three times yesterday, which is a new record for this phone. I felt like I had my BlackBerry Torch again and it was fucking miserable.

Today I discovered that the Email app is broken and I can’t read any email on my Exchange account. It downloads the messages, but you can’t see or open them, and the app gives random connection errors.

I really hope that Samsung knows that they need to fix and re-release the update as soon as possible, because this is a really big botch-up, and how they handle this will determine whether my next phone will be a Samsung or not.
