I've just downloaded this I think - reason for not being so sure is that it froze at 71% and I had to restart my phone to sort it. After restarting it seems to be fine anyway, I'm liking the whole crisper look to everything. I was just wanting to know if there's anything useful to do with it? I noticed that there are a couple of new apps but just like the last time I'm not sure if they're of any use to me.
If anyone's bothered to explain that'd be great, also wondering if anyone else had errors while downloading?

using an s4, had the update for a while, most anoying thing for me is it automatically drops wifi when the phone thinks it too weak a signal etc which is fine if in the house with decent wifi but using it on a train or what ever is near on impossible as it thinks its too slow , small thing but can be annoying ,
i got knox and look out security added, never used any of the two and seen alot of folks moaning online about the knox app, and the look out security is from EE even though im using o2 , my phone is sim free though so guessing thats why its appeared

The Wi-Fi switching thing can be turned off, mine was off as default on my S3. Just go to your Wi-Fi networks, press menu then advanced and deselect auto network switch.

Turn that off on my Nexus 4 and It still won't let me connect to our home network  - Home network is 2.5mb, 3g is 8mb, I have unlimited 3g, so use that instead

Works quite well in our house, thick stone walls aren't good for Wi-Fi signal so we've got 2 Wi-Fi boosters and the router. Once one signal gets low there's usually a stronger one to take over.
