Finally switched to PR1.3 - all of my prior PR1.2 hiccups have been cured, it seems like the battery is better behaved - went all day, used the phone for 4 hours and was still over 25% with bluetooth on.

I still have run into the bluetooth/wifi issue where the audio gets garbled if I'm on wifi and using my bluetooth earpiece.

I've had no issues with anything else, but cannot remember if there was ever a good task app, like Clear for iOS...

I got tired of waiting for my Dubai phone to update, just flashed it using other firmware. Not like I'm covered by any warrantees.
