So i got the ICS software update and was pretty stoked on the upgrades, speed, and new tools. But yesterday i was on WakeWorld and couldn't watch a single Wakeboarding video posted or listed under video/photo. WTF?! I have flash player installed and went through my Browser settings but it seems that there is no setting that would fix this. Am i alone here or is anyone else having this problem with the new software update?

Heard there are numerous glitches. As with any update the first release is quirky. My Nexus works fine but it has been running ICS since day one. I'll check on my wife's Razr.

Which device and with ROM? There are many hardware driver issues with devices and ICS. Some of them block hardware video acceleration you likely need to watch videos.

Sorry should have said I'm using the Droid RAZR. And before the update everything was fine

Looks like Flash 11.1 is not supported, which version do you have?

I see some reports of a full data wipe required for video play back to work post update too.

I used to geek around with my Andoid weekly, found I did not like the early ports of ICS. Went back to 2.x for a more stable device and better battery life. I've moved on to WP7 now, actually find that I like the unified experience. Kinda funny as when WP7 first came out, I tried it for 3 months or so and went to Android as I could not stand it.

Also on a RAZR, what I noticed is my battery life is way shorter. Messing with settings still.

My battery life on a RAZR MAXX was cut down way past half. Hope they make a fix, I hate ICS right now. The last software let you remove or block the bloatware, now it's all wide open.
