I’m back on the beta again - after going back to SW6 via the reflash tool & a factory reset (ugh! yeah, updating to this beta is a one-way trip), finding more problems and not less, then going back to SW14.

I’ve also noticed that, while SW6 would only claim “90%” for a fully charged battery (I didn’t have the limiter enabled - it’s a replaceable battery, why bother? :wink: Plus, voltage was 4.3v, which is definitely fully charged), now SW14 shows 100% as it should. So that’s a big one fixed.

I’ve had no problems with WiFi at home last night, nor at work today so far.

Thanks. Need another favor. Could you install SW15 as well. Incremental update - fixed the launcher swipe bug. This will be the final build for next 2-3 months.
