Help Functions no longer working since 2.2 update

So I just did the OTA Froyo update (I think that maybe I should have done the RUU that I've been reading about.

Anyway, since I've done the update things that no longer work properly on my phone:

  • Pressing "Menu" button to unlock the phone
  • Swype will no longer work when swyping letters, only when pressing like a typical keyboard
  • Browser constantly shutting down...I cannot get 20 seconds into using the browser without it shutting down.

Has anyone else noticed similar issues?

I will update as I notice additional issues...so far not happy.
 
Uninstall swype and just reinstall the swype installer from beta. Run the installer, sign in, download, and reinstall. If you were not using the official beta, I'm pretty sure it won't work.
As for the browser shutting down, good chance it's the Flash player. Some say you can get an updated version over a xda website. I myself just did a factory reset. Hope this was at least a little helpful.

aghhh...I hate this.

Can't get swype to work. Can't find anything to help me get swype to work. And they move my thread.

I uninstalled swype and know can't reinstall...perfect.

Thanks for moving my page btw...all I wanted was some help.

Seriously? You are complaining about the fact that YOU did not post in the support forum and a mod moved it over?
