10000%. Everyone uses it.

I'm sure they do and it should be but the LG support tool nonsense and bad OTA update has shaken my faith in updates and messing with firmware! I know it can be easy as my galaxy tab has upgraded several times with no issues. But when I was looking at my phone having failed an update part way through I was thinking 'Is my phone just broken now?' and I hated that feeling.

Maybe I will wait until I can get a new phone for free on my contract before risking this one again.
