Same, with both the upgrade and a full restore, and my phone is stock (no jailbreak.) A good friend had great success with his after iOS4, so it's not affecting everyone. I followed a guide online and manually rolled back to 3.1.3 and haven't looked back, and soon I'll pick up the 4G. It's not like most of the compelling features were compatible with the 3G anyway.

Do you by chance have a link to this guide?
Sure; there are a couple out there. Lifehacker's was the most straightforward and detailed. The process is much the same as jailbreaking. http://lifehacker.com/5572003/how-to-downgrade-your-iphone-3...

I had some shenanigans with it being an older backup and so had to re-transfer my email accounts from my compy to the phone, but that was just a couple checkboxes in iTunes and setting up MobileMe.
