[Official] Gingerbread Update - Bugs, New Apps, etc.

[tsak6789]

After the supposed "fix", I'm still having constant Sense reboots. In fact I just had 3 within the last 5 minutes. I'm ready to trash this thing.

Just curious, do you run any security software on your phone? Stuff like Lookout or Theft Aware?

Supposedly, through the grape vine mind you, sprint has claimed that such apps running in the background are causing the issue.

I run theft aware, same issue, and before i reinstalled it I can say I didn't get any reloads.

nexflix issue

After update, now everytime I click nextflix, says there is an update, however when you click on update says it cannot find update, is anybody else having this problem? you can still use netflix when u hit cancel, but the contant update msg's are a real pain.

Haven't seen anyone mention this issue. I used the speaker phone yesterday during a call and now it defaults to the speaker phone being on when I make or receive a call.

It does that because there is no longer a Netflix app on Market. So, it checks and can't find it...

DITTO! Again, I thought this was just me. Had a lot of mail @home tonight on the laptop.... Lol. I just thought I was unpopular today!

Another annoying issue that I don't see being reported on the first page (sorry didn't read the other 51 pages).
It's new with Gingerbread, was fine with Froyo, I have Easy Reminder App installed since Google still doesn't want to give us repetitive alert other than a blinking light for missed text and calls.
So When I received a text, pretty often I drag down the top bar from the home screen and clik on the shown text message alert and it will open up the text message thread of that person.
Now if I leave it like this and turn off the screen, it will continue vibrating to tell me I have a new message.
I have to go back to the text message using the shortcut (not from the top bar) to count it as read as the shortcut shows a green circle with a "1" inside to tell me that I have one unread message.
Anyone else is experiencing this issue?

I get a green circle that shows the number of unread messages. After reading the messages and returning to the home screen the message count is still there. I have to go back into messages then go back out in order for the count to clear. Sometimes I can go out of the home screen to fix this.

BTW- I tried to clear data, and delete the account and reloaded it, reboot phone...nothing helped. Gmail is still working though...

I'm having issues with contacts mostly.
For whatever reason, if im sending someone a text message, to the right of their name is the letter 'M' followed by there phone number. For example; CHRIS MCCOY (M 321-321-3213): sup
its extremely annoying because it looks very unorganized. On top of that, when texting, if my text message exceeds one page, the phone stops typing, and the page jumps to the very begining to the conversation, that also happens, if im texting someone,and I recieve another text message at the same time. This glitches are driving me up the wall! Anyone else experiencing this?

I'm getting the issue with the text message jumping to the top of the screen, even after the MR.

Just downloaded the updated Netflix app, and it works great.
So they got 1 thing right

I use Lookout. If I uninstall it, what does that mean for my phone?

Me too it happens if I miss the keyboard while typing sometimes or press somewhere unexpceted, when you have a 1000 messages thread it takes forever to go back down the list so by pressing the back button once and pressing on the screen it should bring you back at the bottom, it kind of happns randomly, basically you need to find a way to close the keyboard and make it appear again.

Compass still doesn't work on mine. Have to calibrate every single time I open it. It is less jumpy than before but unless I calibrate it every time it is WAY off.

 

[saleen2002]

does any one seem to have shorter battery life since gb? also my phone seems to be gettin on the warm side quiker then before. everythign on the phone is stock.

 

[4 Star General]

My battery life hasn't changed. Seidio 3500, I unplug weekday mornings at 6:15am, and now at 9:50pm I'm at 50%. Nice

I had this problem with the first update. I did a hard reset and have not had a Sense reboot problem since then.

After maintenance fix, compass still erratic, I am seeing the HTC splash screen more now then I did after the gb update, voice to text doesn't work at all, and folders with apps that are on SD are still showing the generic android icons after restart. This was suppose to be a fix, I want the working froyo version back.

 

[n5phtevo]

Still have the Android icons for my SD apps in folders after restart..

Same here - but remember just changed to another scene and then back to yours and they are restored. Buy very annoying.
