Daniel, if you restart the phone the click comes back, at least it has on mine! Strange as the phone restarts after the update but it now works..

has anyone else noticed that sometimes the SMS noise stops? I find that sometimes I only get the vibrate and not the noise when I get a new SMS. When I reboot the phone, everything is fine again, but I can’t figure out why it just stops making noise. Everything else seems to be better with the 2.0.1 upgrade.. faster, etc….
Thanks

I’ve been experiencing problems with a laggy Contacts app, confused keyboards sticking around forever, and other general bugs. The update seems to have helped in every department. Fancy that.

No problems updating. I found that when I sync to include apps that have been pulled from the store, at least the remaining valid apps work. Before 2.0.1, all apps would fail to start correctly.

This update seems to have made my backups take twice as long…
Anyone else notice this??????

Um this fixed NOTHING in regards to my long backups! Its taking just as long and continually wants to backup even after restarting iTunes, hard-resetting the iPhone and a full computer restart. What a waste of time. Apple, get your $#$@^ \^% $%^( together.
