Well, you might want to hold off, because it looks like the new code is causing more heartache than good. A variety of reports on T-Mobile's official support forums echo the same overarching complaint, which is that messaging is a disaster zone ever since version 1.3.18 took hold -- long freezes when using the messaging app or widget, messages not getting sent or being sent multiple times -- basically all the things you really don't want to happen on a device that touts its social connectedness. For what it's worth, we've personally seen this happen on a CLIQ since the update, so we know there's something going on here; T-Mobile says that the complaints have been "forwarded... to the appropriate people," so hopefully we'll see some resolution soon. In the meantime, users experiencing issues are advised to not perform a master reset -- important advice, considering that's one of the first fixes many users might entertain.Motorola CLIQs falling victim to latest firmware?
