Microsoft rolling out Windows phone update to iron out bugs

winupdate

Microsoft has rolled out a new update for Windows phones. The update apparently irons out bugs and brings in some improvements to the phone. The first one to receive the update build number 8107 is the LG Optimus 7 on the Vodafone network. This update fixes the disappearing keyboard issue and the location privacy bug.

Apart from this, the update also includes the following improvements:

Resolves a Gmail syncing issue
Fixes a location access issue. With this fix, the Me feature in the People Hub sends anonymous information about nearby Wi-Fi access points and cell towers to Microsoft only if you agree to allow the Check In function to access and use location information
Revokes digital certificates from DigiCert Sdn Bhd to address an encryption issue.
Fixes an email issue related to Microsoft Exchange Server 2003. With this fix, when you reply to or forward a message, the original message is now included in your response
Fixes a voicemail notification issue

Apparently this update does not fix the Windows phone SMS bug.
