Bugs in Jelly Bean

[AetherJones]

I am having no issues other than not being able to put my phone down.

EVO-LUTION 4G LTE

Gotta agree. Been considering going to apple for the last couple weeks. But this update... If this is the direction android is going then ill never consider leaving again. Very fast and even more useful. The cards thing... Omg.

The keyboard glitch seems to be fixed. The microphone has come back on my phone. Is it like that for everyone else?

What happens if you disable the FM Radio widget?

I checked what was using my battery after just being off the charger for a short time and sitting idle for an hour. The top most used was 15% going to "FM Radio Widget". I find this fascinating, since I don't have that widget on my screens, anywhere, nor have I ever even used the FM Radio Widget- EVER, nor have I ever loaded the FM Radio app at all since the last reboot. Hmm...

I did not even notice the keyboard mic glitch because I use Swiftkey..

The Home screen wallpaper used to glide left or right when flipping across the screens, it's locked in placed after JB update. Is there a way to make it slide back and forth like it used to?

I plan to do that if it shows up again in battery usage today.

Everyone with bugs should really do a factory reset. I know it's a pain but, might help you.

Its not a bug, its a design flaw. Completely different. It is irrelevant that is there is no option to turn it off, simply because you dislike it.

You are right, it is not a bug, it is a severe design flaw. Someone at HTC was smoking crack and decided that EVERY user MUST see the damn "Power saver" thing ALL the time, consuming 10% of the screen. And, just to add insult to injury, HTC and/or Sprint decided that we are not allowed to disable the app AND if you kill it, it just reappears a minute later.

I hope someone comes up with a non-root hack to hide/remove the damn thing!

Not sure if you can call it a bug but more of a feature loss, from storage settings you use to have options to clear app cache at various levels. For example, all app cache or just unused apps. This seems to be missing now with JB

I definitely notice a faster drop in battery. I can't for the life of me figure out what is causing it. I've had my phone off charger for an hour and I am already down to 89% Anyone else noticing this?

I just found out that in the stock Car app, the Music App section is not showing the apps that I placed there when the phone is docked.

It probably cannot since the home screens at the ends now go around to the other side when swiping left or right. The photo would need to reset.

Every EVO user should send a message to both Sprint and HTC about that stupid thing.

I updated last night. I have several folders on my home screen, and now have to touch the screen about a half inch above the folder (often touching the folder above it) to open it. Any ideas how to resolve this? I have rebooted several times and adjusted all of the screen options I could find. Thank you.

I just did send them a message about it (and a few other things) right before I saw your message.

What is the point of having the ability to disable apps if they keep changing things to block us from disabling apps?

Several people have reported that. Try plopping a widget on top of them, which will force everything to move around. (PS, if you have not turned off "FAST BOOT", then you have never really rebooted; although I doubt rebooting will help with this, anyway).

I'm seeing the mic on the 'period' key in stock. Looks as if you have to long press it.

I see that now, it was kinda hidden. Thanks for pointing it out!

This option is not available in the Swype keyboard, only the stock HTC keyboard. Not sure why Swype does not allow for voice to text anymore, disappointing.

I just noticed the mic is not visible on either keyboard sometimes, but available as an option with a long press on the period with the HTC stock keyboard. It's not always there though, this is frustrating because I often used the mic to dictate my texts. Now I'm not able to do that directly in the messaging app, this seems like an odd change.

I have a D-link also. so you may be on to something here

Back at work this am. WiFi working perfectly. There is definitively an issue with the D-link and the phone. I've been able to connect to other routers without an issue. Will get a new router this weekend to troubleshoot at home

My heptic feedback is extremely soft for my home keys. I can feel it fine on everything other functions but when I hit my home, back, or recent apps keys I cant feel it.

What is a "cards thing"?.

I believe he's talking about Google Now.

Go to the icon called "Google" in the app drawer. For the life of me I can't figure out why they choose to be so cryptic when it comes to naming Google apps.

Yes, I had turned off FAST BOOT. I read all of the postings in this thread before I posted and did not see this mentioned - is it posted in a different thread? Thanks.
