The "Seeking GPS" message that frequently appeared on navigation has been corrected. Some had problems with lag on video which this also fixes. These item are just the beginning of the list.

Is there any way to get new software. There are apps in the store now that will not work with this phone. A phone should at least be supported until your two years are completed.
