Phone [Q] Did ICS update fix anything?

TL;DR Does the full ICS update fix 4G data crashes and reboots?

I have had the rebooting issues and 4G data crashes that seem so common on many forums however I have yet to read about a fix for them.
The reboot issue seemed to be caused by the phone switching between 3g and 4g. Using LTE On/Off prevents the reboots but I get random 4G crashes. They last only a few seconds but once they start its near impossible to use data and the phone must be restarted anyway. I'm rooted, S-Off with the recent ICS radios flashed on a Gingerbread ROM. My question is will flashing the full ICS ROM fix the issues? Or will a new SIM card fix the problems? Im still a little noobish with this stuff so please be gentle.

It might help considering the ota included a completely reworked ril and some other components the ril didn't have before that help tons. I haven't had one data drop where I have to switch to airplane mode or toggle data to get it back. I'm not running the official build but one of Santod's roms that is using the new ril.

Yes, the update and more importantly, the radios and new Ril, do fix the data drops, reboots, battery drain, etc,...
Well worth the upgrade in my opinion.
First time in a long time, that I have felt the radios were actually solid.
