Install updates?

So my phone every so often tells me it has an automatic update that it wants to install and of course asking my permission. I, of course, allow it since updates are free and probably do nothing harmful at the least, and may actually improve something that I don't know doesn't really work correctly. Well this morning when I woke up, my phone was telling me about updates available so as always I allowed it. As I was with a friend, I wandered off for some socializing and forgot completely about the fact my phone was updating.

I returned for my phone some time later, after it had finished and restarted itself, because my friend wanted to see it. I didn't look at it, just picked it up and handed it to him. I wasn't paying much attention for a bit, then I realized the direction my friend was holding my phone and scrolling. (I realized I should mention, I have a droid phone that has a touch screen and QWERTY keyboard that slides out from the side. My phone's screen switches from upright to displaying on it's left side when you turn it or open the keyboard.) My friend was holding the phone to the right. It was upright. The screen had followed the orientation. I stared at it for like 5 minutes before just grabbing my phone and spinning it in all directions watching it follow except for upside down. I couldn't believe it! I then remembered the update.

My curiosity up and running, I went to my home screen to see what else had changed. Most obvious was that at the bottom there were two buttons added under the apps on my screen. There originally had been one for going to the app screen. There was now a browser and call option one. I then noticed my google search bar looked different. I went to go see if the other main pages were different, and held the screen a bit too long when sliding and then five icons popped up, each showing a different home screen! I was in total shock! I couldn't believe how many changes this update had done.

I went to get back into my messages but hit the contacts button by mistake. Another shock! The main colour scheme used to be white. It was now black. Mind was blown. I backed up and went to the messages. Another double take after seeing that the main colour scheme that was black was now completely white! Whoa! Too much change to handle. I go into one of my message threads only to be attacked with more! The message threads had been transformed into something similar to my facebook chats. Each message had the picture of the sender beside the text!

I got a text at this point. There's a little light on the side of the phone that goes off when I get calls or messages. Instead of being blue it was green. Seriously? They even changed the colour of my notifications? Wow.

So far that's all I've found that's new. Considering the usual updates, thats a heck of a lot.

Oh just found one more. Apparently my phone is now also green. I was charging it and when it finished charging on the screen it said "phone is charged, unplug to save energy" I'm almost shocked it didn't say 'B!*ch' after that.

I'm curious as to what else was changed but worried that something I use a lot will be different and I'll find out at a bad time. Who knows. These updates are "getting curiouser and curiouser"
