It's odd that some seem to be affected while others are not. I'm in the not category so far. Since updating yesterday morning, I've been in very poor to no signal areas between home and work, yet the phone has operated normally since it booted up after the update. I wonder if it has anything to do with any third party apps downloaded/installed or particular stock apps being used or how they're configured? My TB is stock all the way, with only a few stock apps updated (ex. Adobe Reader, Flash Player, Google Maps, Gmail). I also don't use any of the social networking apps, just the aforementioned ones. Also, could it be something with what cell towers it hits related to the tower configuration? Or are there just a bad batch of these phones out there? These smart phones are so much like computers, complex in nature and so many variables that can cause problems. In troubleshooting, it's a process of elimination which can be difficult and time consuming.

Funny you say it's odd that some dont have issues. Two days ago a friend of mine came over and I saw he got a TB so I asked how he liked it. He "said it's great I love it". I said " really cause I want to smash mine with hammer on the counter at a Verizon store". He was baffled as to why I was so upset with my TB so I explained the problems I was having and while I had his phone in my hand I touched the browser icon, the phone did some thinking, and came back with a no connection error. He say " yeah it does that sometimes". I just laughed cause he is one of those that thinks it's great but didn't realize the no connection issue is a common problem. So I think that there are a good percentage of TB owners out there that just deal with it.
