Eris 2.1 leak Bug's and Fixes

report:

My Handcent keeps telling me "message failed to send." but everyone is getting my text's anyway. On and off, sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.

Also, Facebook not syncing with people.

Phone contacts and Facebook contacts have to match each others names exactly in order to sync, I believe.

Normally yes. But you can also custom-assign them. So if someone has me in there phone as "Wally" (my nickname), they can still link to the facebook page of Mike Wallach (me).

Just did a test and updated my sync for Facebook in people and all my pictures went away. Went into the Facebook app and scrolled through my friends and waited for the pictures to load. Closed Facebook and opened people to find that all the pics had returned.

I think you may have to be signed in for sync and the app to get it working.

That makes a lot of sense. A security feature and the reason you need to log in to Google after a reboot.

Yeah of course. I thought you were referring to Auto-syncing!

I had the same issue this morning after I updated and had loads of fun manually re-syncing everyone. :rolleyes:
 
I've been tinkering with things since late this afternoon. Mostly I have been re-downloading apps and getting things set up similar to how I had them before. I have noticed a few things.

In my 2-3 reboots so far, I have had to sign in to google again. This appears to have replaced the GV FC that I had before. I am a GV user.

There is a new desktop clock app that is accessed when pressing the HTC clock widget. Part of that app shows the weather. No matter what I do, it only shows the current weather in Chicago. When I go to the weather app I can delete Chicago. When I go to the clock, the Chicago weather is there. Back to the weather app and Chicago is back again.

My google contacts are now syncing all contacts instead of my contacts. Real PITA because you can't stop google from adding every email address you ever sent something to into your all contacts.

I think that's about it for now.
 
so could it possibly fix any issues i might be having, example, my reception? tomorrow will be the true test, i work in the verizon wireless stores, always have full service in there, if i dont, i know something is very wrong

It probably won't. And please start QUOTING previous posts so we know who you are responding to. :rolleyes:
 
First post, thought I'd update my own status.

Everything is working, except there is a bug for those using Text Plus. Shows numbers instead of your contact names, I did restore using My Backup though. Contacts through my native messaging app are normal.

Phone speed is incredibly fast, YouTube works flawlessly.
 
Not sure if this has been reported yet, but did anyone notice that if you use the search hard key while in the browser, when it puts your cursor in the search box, the keyboard that comes up has no space bar?? Is this something I inadvertently enabled?

Handcent has been screwing around with me. Texts will not send until you resend it or they simply won't send at all. *228 did not work for me. It would ring, I'd press 1 or 2, it would start updating, then say update failed. The voice will say "sorry, your phone can not be updated at this time. Please call *such and such number* from a landline..."

Simply, I just stopped using Handcent and went back to stock. I miss the quick reply pop up, but...it's no biggie.

I had the same issue with Handcent so I tried Chomp instead (which, btw, also has a quick reply popup feature JUST like Handcent) and so far, I have had no issues with Chomp. Try it :)

BUG: Old text messages jumping to the bottom of threads. Still dated correctly and everything. It's more of an annoyance than a problem.

Kind-of-fix: Close out of Messages and go back into the thread.
