Hey guys/gals,
Im working at preparing a list of a bugs with the new update, I have made a simple spreadsheet. I have heard of some of the issues but it would help if you had a logcat or other technical info to share in reporting.
Please do not submit errors regarding:
Errors to do with a custom rom
apps that are not pre-installed or Samsung
Issues due to you rooting your device
Or anything else that is your own fault (IE: I put my phone in water to cool it down, now it no turn on?!)
To submit a bug, post it in here! http://bit.ly/e8eRl6
I will be sending the results after a while to SamsungJohn, hopefully he can get some of these fixed!
Best Regards,
Captainkrtek

post it in the link he posted!!!
ok, how do I read this spreadsheet. Do I need to submit feedback to see it?
The list isn't public, let me make it so...
Ehh strike that, some people submitted email addresses for further contact, won't make that public.
"Link to Spreadsheet Inside"
"The list isn't public"
May wish to change the title, seeing as this is the entire reason for entering this thread.

copy/paste from pocketnow..:
Twitter has long announced that they'd switch to the new authentication method called OAuth which would be more secure. The problem with the old method was that applications had to store your user name and password in order to access Twitter so the new OAuth method will overcome this possible security flaw.
But together with this come the problems related to software that is not kept up to date to reflect and implement the new methods which are used as default now by Twitter. Unfortunately, HTC's Twitter client, Peep, is one of those apps that stopped working and imagine my surprise this morning when I wanted to check the tweets while drinking coffee and was presented with the screen attached. Hope HTC will release their updated version of the app as soon as possible since we know they don't want to lose any users in their Peep pool.
And guess what, moving from the HD2 to my Desire (in my desperate and naive attempt to read some news), I was surprised to find out that Peep for Android is facing the same problems, and it became clear to me that HTC has to make a move, quick!
Strange though that I managed to tweet from Peep some two hours ago!... - probably my last tweet from Peep for a while, hope it'll be short.
That's explains everything
This sucks!!!!!!!!!!
this sucks man! I twittered HTC and posted a notice on their Facebook wall, hope that they come with a fix ASAP!!!!!! Unbelievable that they had months notice to fix this problem. We also still waiting on a ROM update which they promised us since April! Its now September and still no official ROM update!
Its kind of ridiculous that HTC didn't change Peep to the OAuth method before rolling out FroYo. Now we have to wait for yet another update to fix our twitter clients.
Anyway, any alternative Twitter apps for Leo/WM6.5 which do still work? Preferably one with some cool extra functions
Yeah, I noticed this too.. Oddly enough it still works for posting new tweets.
I hope they will fix this with a simple/quick CAB update (or exe, like with the camera). Saves the hassle of backing up again.
But thanks to the XDA community, it will probably be cabbed anyways.. <3
Maybe we will need to wait to twitter again until they release windows mobile 7

I know twikini posted a while back (I can't post links but a search of "twikini stops updates" will get you there) that they would not update their app to support OAuth so that on 8/31 is would stop working. Seems as if Peep does not support OAuth either. Not sure us HD2 owners will be getting an update given the state of WM 6.5 and WM7 around the corner.
For WinMO, I use Panoramic MoTweets they updated to support OAuth in version 1.8.4

Was posted on an other thread
Butt I don't like the way motweets's works and his layout so this could be an option for people who want to try
As much as I love the HD2, I can't stand HTC's "support", more like lack of, lmao! They seem to make a phone & drop it like an ex girlfriend with a scat fetish, then move on to the next one!
Thank god for xda & you talented individuals or this phone would be near useless by now.
I love the Peep feature, it's my preffered way of tweeting & reading tweets. On Desire I love tweetcaster & tweetdeck, two awesome apps, which naturally means they won't be available for Windows......grrrrr!
I'm sure if enough people complain to HTC regarding it, they will address it. Expecially since T-Mobile is still selling the HD2.
I do admit it's discouraging though that it's not already fixed, considering the time given to address it
I dont use Peep but do use both MoTweets and PockeTwit,
only MoTweets is working now.
love u guys
i was wondering why peep wasn't workin i know if i got a problem to always come to xda thanks
Those of you on WinMo who already have Kinoma Play for its media features can use its Twitter app as well. If you don't have Kinoma yet, you're missing out. It's well worth the purchase.
I'm hoping Peep gets fixed as well, but at least I've got a stand-by.
Any clever coders out there working on an unofficial patch?
Wow good thing I read this post cause I almost resorted to a hard reset!
Official reply from HTC
I got this official reply from HTC today:
Hi, We are currently investigating an issue with our Peep client that has stopped working and hope to have a solution soon. Please monitor the support pages for updates, or if you prefer we can record your details and contact you again once a solution is available, You can use the official twitter app for the time being. This is unaffected, HTC are currently working on the authorisation required for peep to work on our handsets, an update should be available soon. Thank you for contacting HTC Europe Best Regards Luke HTC Europe.
Seems like it's going to take them a while to resolve this. We're already waiting since April on a new ROM update so I doubt if an official update will be deployed since Windows 7 will be debuting in December.
In the mean time, download moTweets, it works excellent!!!!!!! Does anybody know how to replace the twitter tab in Sense with moTweets? That would be excellent, but I don't know how.
If anyone knows, please post how to.
THANKS!
I recieved the email below of Twitter. as far I see they will deliver updates to change the Oauth login
Over the coming weeks, we will be making two important updates that will impact how you interact with Twitter applications. We are sending this notice to all Twitter users to make sure you are aware of these changes.
What are applications?
There are over 250,000 applications built using the Twitter API. To use most applications, you first authorize the application to access your Twitter account, after which you can use it to read and post Tweets, discover new users and more. Applications come in many varieties, including desktop applications like TweetDeck, Seesmic, or EchoFon, websites such as TweetMeme, fflick, or Topsy, or mobile applications such as Twitter for iPhone, Twitter for Blackberry, or Foursquare.
Update 1: New authorization rules for applications
Starting August 31, all applications will be required to use “OAuth” to access your Twitter account.
What's OAuth?
- OAuth is a technology that enables applications to access Twitter on your behalf with your approval without asking you directly for your password.
- Desktop and mobile applications may still ask for your password once, but after that request, they are required to use OAuth in order to access your timeline or allow you to tweet.
What does this mean for me?
- Applications are no longer allowed to store your password.
- If you change your password, the applications will continue to work.
- Some applications you have been using may require you to reauthorize them or may stop functioning at the time of this change.
All applications you have authorized will be listed at http://twitter.com/settings/connections.
- You can revoke access to any application at any time from the list.
Update 2: t.co URL wrapping
In the coming weeks, we will be expanding the roll-out of our link wrapping service t.co, which wraps links in Tweets with a new, simplified link. Wrapped links are displayed in a way that is easier to read, with the actual domain and part of the URL showing, so that you know what you are clicking on. When you click on a wrapped link, your request will pass through the Twitter service to check if the destination site is known to contain malware, and we then will forward you on to the destination URL. All of that should happen in an instant.
You will start seeing these links on certain accounts that have opted-in to the service; we expect to roll this out to all users by the end of the year. When this happens, all links shared on Twitter.com or third-party apps will be wrapped with a t.co URL.
What does this mean for me?
- A really long link such as http://www.amazon.com/Delivering-Happiness-Profits-Passion-Purpose/dp/0446563048 might be wrapped as http://t.co/DRo0trj for display on SMS, but it could be displayed to web or application users as amazon.com/Delivering- or as the whole URL or page title.
- You will start seeing links in a way that removes the obscurity of shortened links and lets you know where each link will take you.
- When you click on these links from Twitter.com or a Twitter application, Twitter will log that click. We hope to use this data to provide better and more relevant content to you over time.
Thanks for reading this important update. Come and check what's new at http://twitter.com.
Thanks,
The Twitter Team

Hello everyone! I am the developer of Prepay Widget, a powerful app that allows you to monitor your account balance through USSD requests.
You can find more info about USSD on Wikipedia, but basically these are short, SMS-like messages used by most GSM and some CDMA providers to deliver information
or control account services. The actual information comes to you in the form of popup toasts, which thids app hides and parses into widgets.
You can find the apps landing page on XDA at the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12348102
However, i want to stress that its important that we get some device-specific feedback, so please post in this thread if you have issues,
this helps me keep track of bugs and requests better.
You can use the Lite version of the app - it has all the functionality of the full version apart from automatic updates (not really that important imo).
As I haven't got one of these phones in my pocket, I need some testers to track down problems. Please, use this thread to comment or
suggest features. It is my belief that addressing issues is best done individually by phone, so if something doesn't work, let me know and I will fix it ASAP.

tested on other device with a small screen(Samsung Galaxy 3) (link in signature)
Getting a blank widget for all 4 sizes
resolution is 240 x 400
I´ll try it and give you feedback. Just cant do it now because I am at work.

Hi guys. Any issues to report before we start working on a new build?
i can't see the full sms reply :
in pic #2 it's the full sms reply
Dear god that is a lot of text... but you are showing me the preview window, not the parsing window.
Are you saying that after you click "Yes" in answer to "Is this what you were expecting?" you still cannot see the full reply?
If so, i need a screenshot of the parsing screen please.
Update fixed blank widget but getting another error
Log sent with a brief description!
Ill look into it... damn the wildfire is hard to please!

Of course. Pay close attention now:
App is now in Top New Paid on the market but so few reviews
Absolutely awesome. One of my fav apps now, thanks a lot!
Come on guys - i would have thought people would be willing to test a totally free and awesome widget!
I have tried on the desire s now as well and it works perfectly (MTS and Beeline).

Anything to report?
Error report
I got a crash error after confirming a USSD code, it will not let me set predefined indicators. (I sent an email error report)
Are you rooted?
when i add ussd code, the operator replies with the USSD window, now it asks me that is this what you are expecting, as soon as i hit YES, my statusbar shows that prepay widget has crashed, tap me to send error report.
Have you sent a report? In any case, this issue will be fixed today or tomorrow because youre not the only one experiencing it!
1.3.3.0
Added full Russian translation
Fixed many small errors from user logs
Fixed rare radio restart issue on some ICS builds
Everything OK with this update guys? Was the radio thing fixed on your device?

Hi mate, thanks. Unfortunately that was a long time ago, many devices away.
Look for "pattern wallpaper" on google images. I usually get stuff from there.
downloaded this apps 1 hours ago (Xperia Arc 2.3.4)
enter USSD codes, verify ussd message, press "yes" and the app crashed.

Hi. Did you read the bit of the description that says you need root on SE phones?
Anything to report?
I've read the info at SamMobile (related to SamFirmware).
Anyone tried the ROM? From the comments, there are still plenty of bugs...
Edit: Whoever rated this thread 1star is a true moron and a real idiot.
This is a developer site where people do use beta versions.

Look we release those roms for devs.
Nothing more, we can’t help that people try everything.

There are several threads around here already concerning people using this ROM, so yes, people have used it. General consensus is that it's too unstable for daily use.
I'd be tempted to 1-star this thread as well due to lack of searching on your part.

Well I'll be nice and respond to you.
I've played around with the XXKP1 ROM and for the most part, it was surprisingly stable.
The default launcher IS quite temperamental, so I installed the Trebuchet launcher and 90% of the FC's disappeared. This launcher is a MUST on these leaked ROMs for the time being.
In order to get the best possible experience with these leaked ROMs you need to:
* Install the Bezke XXKP1/2 ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1393569) - Flashable through CWM and is pre-rooted and also has the RIL fixes for 3G data
* Change the default keyboard to the standard Android one as soon as you can one to stop the keyboard FC's.
* Install the Trebuchet launcher (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=821149&d=1324230099) - and place it in /system/app folder. It should open when you press the home button. Set it as the default launcher.
* Stop the media scanner from running - it's a BIG battery drainer - go to Settings/Applications/Running and stop it there, and also stop the cached process
* Turn off key press sounds and lock screen sounds - having these on causes a continuous partial partial wave lock called 'AudioOut_1' - battery drainer
* Install these Calendar apks (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19448865&postcount=2) in /system/app to get the calendar working. Once in /system/app, click on them both to install them. The Calendar will now work
* If you want to use the Contacts.apk and Phone.apk from the 'vanilla' ICS ROM (instead of the installed TW ones) download those APK's (http://www.multiupload.com/6T0019180O) and put them in /system/app. Don't install the MMS.apk though it will break things!
* Turn off the red border from appearing on some screens by going to the Dev Tools App > Development settings > strictmode visual indicator > put it in OFF MODE - then reboot for this to take effect
Battery life then falls to normal levels. Be aware though that when you connect your phone to your computer to transfer files etc, that a media scan will be run again when you disconnect. You'll have to force stop the media scan again otherwise it will keep running.
What rom? That's been kept quiet hasn't it? Certainly no info or discussions anywhere on these forums about it
Everyone will 1-star this because you didn't bother to search before starting a new thread on the same topic!

Are you for real? I've been a forum member on many sites (not to mention developing vBulletin forum software) since forever, I know how to search. Not to mention that the SamMobile post was made today...
Edit: My bad, I apologize. Just found the thread now... it was not on the first page of results when I initially searched and I never look further than a page (like anyone else I guess). Still, rating a thread 1star is really a baby game. Why not just post the link instead? This is a discussion forum where people communicate, not a Nazi camp where the Moron Patrol votes 1's on everything they think is stupid.
Searching, always searching...
The search here can be finicky, but a google search on site:forums.xda-developers.com is generally good, and fairly up date as well.
What I often see:
Hard working dev makes app > fc or bug for some user > user doesn't know how to report bugs so gives 1 star rating in market to describe bug
I feel particularly bad for devs of free apps, who should be thanked not criticized. Some of them post "please email me with bugs..." but more instructions and a way for others to see the bugs would be great.
I came across a few posts with excellent instructions. Not saying they're the right approach for all apps, but a link with the dev's instructions like this would be a big improvement and would allow better feedback to the dev. Also could show text of bugs so others can see what specific devices might not be compatible.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1292625
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1164274
sounds like a good idea, running apps can be bug reported through running apps screen.
Well Google have started to roll out letting developers reply to user comments so they will be able to ask users that give low ratings and need help to submit a bug report etc.
I often find this the case that users that dont get something working right away (which for new users can very easily happen with my Linux on Android app) they will just give a 1 start rating instead of contacting me and asking for help...granted it seems to be getting better but still happens far to much
