List your EC05 Problems/Praise

[aoswald86]

Anyone having issues with their text messages getting stuck 'sending'? I have to power offf and then back on for it to send. This has been happening more frequently as well. Sometimes resetting the phone is not helping the situation intially. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

mine, and my sisters have been like that ever since the update. I updated mine manually and she updated hers OTA. We just turn off our phones and turn them back on and the texts that arent sending usually send.

and we both are now using handcent but that doesn't make a difference because they still dont send.

the tilt thing is kinda annoying, it tilts too easy now.

Im not sure if anyones noticed this, but after having your phone on for a few days, the text messages just stop sending and u have to turn off your phone and turn it back on. i never had that issue before with 2.1. This is really annoying.

My battery life actually is kind of worse with this than it was before.

But i like how they added the ram thing in the task manager so you dont have to download those apps that do the same thing.

You realize that using the task manager to clear RAM will make your texts hang up in sending. I believe a level 2 clear does that until the phone is reset. You should use the "running services" part in settings to kill of services. That will also show you what programs are eating up memory, rather than killing off good and bad processes.

You may be right! I have been using the task manager (when I'm running multiple apps and want to shut everything down instead of individually) to clear ram as well not really knowing that it would effect my text messages. I have turned off my phone various times tonight and the messages are still stuck on sending even after rebooting. I'm going to take the battery out now and see if the problem gets solved or persists. This is getting annoying though!!

UPDATE:

Big Bake you were right!!

If anyone uses the task manager to clear ram (level 1, 2 then clear memory), expect your text messages to be affected like gettting stuck on 'sending'. Its been 4 days now and I haven't had any text messages fail since I'm not clearing ram anymore. Thanks for the heads up big bake!

I just got my phone swapped out by Sprint..

They told me there is a fix coming for this update. Anyone know when? My phone got progressively worse and not sure why. My Bluetooth hardly worked and applications like Fox News wouldn't even function any longer no matter how many times you deleted it and re-installed. I'm not allowing the new phone to update after hearing the Sprint repairmen.

Thanks.. Gary

I hope there really is an update soon. The phone is truly less reliable now

just flashed the ACE 2.0 rom yesterday and have no complaints for the EC05. battery life is noticeably improved (also running juice defender pro), no issues w/ data connection or sending/receiving texts (don't use bluetooth, so can't speak on it). all in all i have to say i dig it.

I just had an mms hang over the weekend using Handcent but without using anything but the Running programs app to close.

anyway, i wonder if the next update is going to be Gingerbread that keeps getting rumored press
