yes, search the wiki for flasher - you can flash to the global firmware version whenever you want. (General usual warnings apply - don't forget to backup!)

As I said, I'm aware that I can flash manually. But that sounds like a lot of hassle when really I should be able to press a button and do it OTA.

Also once I've flashed the global firmware what then happens next firmware? Do I have to do it again or will the global firmware now appear in Application Manager?

I'm not that desperate for the firmware, I'm just interested in what the differences are that cause the delay. is this something we can expect to get better/worse as further updates come?
