Im loving ICS so far, but I have noticed some quirks also and I want to know if anyone has had these issues before.
1. Backlight buttons rarely turn on, and when they do they shut off again shortly and stay off most of the time even after i press them in normal operation.
My Vivid is stock unrooted, updated via OTA

I believe this is an old issue. There was a thread on it last fall. I tested my phone then. The button backlights would come on only when I was in a dark room. The opinion of others was that this was done to reduce the battery drain.

Running a stock Vivid and I am also having major skipping issues when using a Bluetooth connection to play my music. Before the update there was never a skip. Now skips seem to happen at random intervals and fairly frequently. I have searched around and the issue looks to be widespread and not device specific. But I have not found any solution from apps, developers, and certainly not ATT or HTC. I know it is not the SD card after testing between the playing music from the phone and SD card. Any suggestions?
If you have not done so already, you and all the others with the skipping problem need to send an e-mail to HTC support. No, they don't have a fix for it, but they need to know the extent of the problem so they and/or Google will (hopefully) fix it. I would not count on HTC or Google reading this forum looking for things to fix.
It's clear that the ICS upgrade broke several things. HTC is in a better position to pressure Google, but we have to pressure HTC. Talking among ourselves may provide some workarounds (Voice Dialer replacements for example), but we have to hit HTC hard. Also, I took every opportunity at CNet and ZDNet to post my complaints. We should also be doing the same on the other Android forums.
