Hello,
here is a list of bugs discovered in new Android 2.1 (Nordic), build 2.0.A.0.504.
Please add your discovered bugs to have it all in one thread + of course
solutions/workarounds to solve those bugs:
- Wisepilot will hangs with "Validating Internet settings" message
+ started working 03.11.2010 for no reason, maybe license has been activated on Wisepilot side?
- Power Control widget don't really disable "Background data" transfer as before
+ workaround: it's a feature, disable "Background data" in Settings - "Accounts & sync" menu
- If phone is powered off and is charging, screen with battery icon is always ON + display back-light is active all the time...
+ workaround: power ON phone during the charging and put it into the Sleep with Power button, display will be OFF then
- After phone is charged, green led stay lighting even is disconnected from the charger
(it happen sometimes)
i can't use usb link with my pc...
phone just reboot each time gets connected with windows so it's impossible for me to transfer apps on my SD in this way...
anyone else has this issue?

- If phone is sleeping, can't wake-up with Menu button (left button)

The "wake-up" button is just replaced by the middle button, as I see it!?
That is not a "bug" IMO, just a change in layout

I don't have this problem, try connect phone to different computer. Maybe factory reset of phone will help..

Yes, it's a feature...
Could somebody test if Wisepilot is working for him?
When I scroll through the widgets a bit, I suddenly get the "add widget" screen.
I've just installed the Helix launcher. Much better than the standard X10mini home app.

Mine says that my internet configuraion is not correct for Wisepilot. So it doesn't work for me too.
*Gallery too slow
* USB diconnecting with the slightest movement
* Anybody had a charging problem... its just stops charging but the led light still shows charging
Points to note -
The menu key unlock is not a bug
You can install the 3D gallery , its much faster

Yes, I also get this message, or it just hangs, so this bug is confirmed :-(
While charging via pc, the lockscreent lights up sometimes and changes the progress from 100% (full) to 99% (while still connected).
I haven't tested this with the AC charger yet.
This could be very annoying if it lights up my bedroom while I charge my phone at night.

i used backup and restore with previous fw upgrade...now i repeated without restorinf data and seems fine;
probably backups made with 1.6 version of the fw are incompatible with the new one...

Good, probably it's an incompatibility of backups..
Google Talk seems to be slow at receiving messages. Sometimes I recieve a couple messages at a time from one person.

It could depend from your internet connection quality...I will test it.
I experience that the phone reboots sporadic when is´s connected to the PC via USB.
There dons´t seems to be any pattern in, when and why?
Led not blinking
I have a problem with no led blinking after receiving sms (using a handcent sms).
Led is not working, anybody else have the same?
and now i see...i don't see voice search .. ok we can download from market and voice search works
When I turn on wifi, it has a random chance to connect. There are times when I reboot the phone with wifi on and it connects automatically, and there are times when it takes up to half an hour to connect. Its always stuck at getting IP address. Really sucks every time I'm in a rush and need it quick.
Is there a fix for this problem? Or is it possible to take the wifi folder from stock rom and put it in this one?
When this happens, go to wifi settings, press left soft-key and click on "Scan".
It will start connecting now. I use this as a workaround.

Thanks a lot!
You are welcome
Custom roms are known to have that problem. I experienced it as well. So that's why I switched back to stock rom
I have a strange problem.
My Galaxy S2 (9100) is not turning off the screen anymore.
When I press the power button, usually the phone would turn off the screen and go into sleep mode.
Now the phone immediately wakes up again, showing me the lock screen.
I got that phone on Android 2.3.3 (Gingerbread) where it ran fine in the beginning.
Then this behaviour appeared. I have updated to ICS (4.0.4) via Kies software and problem still exists.
I then thought I might try a completely new ROM, so got CyanogenMod latest stable release from their website and installed that (with google apps).
No other software installed, so I can exclude this as a problem.
Problem still persists.
So it seems not connected to any ROM neither to any software.
The strange thing is:
The power button is working, because I can
- long press to bring up the menu to shut down the phone (which works ok)
- short press and the screen will turn off - only it comes on a second later again.
Obviously this drains the battery quickly.
Help please!

Hmm this is really strange
Maybe it's a "loose connection" of homebutton?!
Try do press a bit "harder" "softer" "more up" etc... hope u know what I mean....
If one of the pressings work it seems to be a hardware prob.
If always the same it must be a software problem and u can try to flash a new kernel (if u also on Cyanogenmod)
Much success
CHEERS
Of course I have already tried to press the power button in any way I could imagine (soft, hard, more up, more down, etc) - always the same result: Screen turns off and comes back on immediately.
The question is, what kind of hardware failure can this be? The power button seems to works.
Are there any hardware features on this phone that would either automatically turn on the screen or prevent the phone from going into standby? I know some of the newer phones have a function that detects if one is watching the screen and then prevents standby. Maybe such a feature is malfunctioning? Only I am not aware that the S2 has such a thing.
I don't think it is a software issue, because I have had the same experience with 3 different ROMs now (Gingerbread, Stock ICS, CyanogenMod 9)
Same issue Here .......
My P7510 started to do a strange thing.
I usually never turn off the device and I just let it in sleep mode with everything off to save battery (wifi, bluetooth, ...)
Lately I noticed that sometimes the screen turns on and off by itself every few minutes.
No physical harm has ever been done to the tab and the power button doesn't seem to be sticky, so I think it may be some kind of malware.
I'm just asking what do you guys think could cause this before going with the trouble of doing a factory reset.
btw i'm on rooted stock ics rom.
thanks
Have you installed any sort of app that has permissions to wake the device or turn on/keep the screen on when running? Try uninstalling a couple of recent apps to see if one of them is the culprit.
Hello everyone,
My Bluetooth won't turn on. I turn it on and it turns off immediately.
The TS and my phone were paired and suddenly I stopped getting my sms's on the TS so I disabled SWApp Link and enabled it again, but noticed the Bluetooth was off, so I tried to turn it on without luck.
What can I do?
I have stock ROM and didn't root nor anything.
EDIT: Thanks tu kuronosan, I could fix it:
Go into settings, disable quick boot under accessibility, and reboot.
This is actually a bug introduced in 4.2.2 and usually requires you to wipe cache to clear it out.
