Hi Ryan,

That's awesome! Thanks for testing and giving us feedback.

Yes, everyone can report bugs. You'll simply need to create a Launchpad
account first, which you've already done if you're posting on this list :)

Here's how:

This is also covered here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/ReleaseNotes#Upgrades

"Some parts of the image can’t currently be upgraded, so it is best to
deploy a full updated image (link to install tool). Individual apps can
be updated with APT, though"

So in short, while you can use apt-get, for now I'd stick to re-flashing
the full image until we're at a point where all contents of the image
can be updated through the regular package mechanism.
