not an issue...its just part of the OS

anyone else having a lack of LED when getting a text using Handcent?

Phew, I'm not the only one. I get no LED notification with Handcent either. Also, the sync arrows are constantly in my status bar. It's been 24 hrs...
Lastly, I can't turn on the LED light on the back of the phone with Extend Control anymore.

Update: A factory reset fixed the sync icon problem. No luck on getting the LED's (front and back) to work.

Yes go in to your contact that you want to link, pull up the menu and Edit Contact, pull up the menu again and Join. This will let you "link" then again. What is actually nice is that everyone I have done this for it has figured it out and gave me the short list of contacts.

Also in contacts if you pull up the menu and choose display options you can then pick which services you want to show in your contact list. Again just one of the amazing changes that have been made to blur.

thank you sir. Yeah i am starting to see very little that was untouched with this update. Needless to say it was well worth the wait imo. i'm starting to wonder what if any additional changes will be in the final OTA that VZW pushes out or if it will be just a bug fixer to this.

I too tried the reflash.... nothing. Did you clear cache first?

i held the power and home button to boot into moto recovery then wiped data for factory restore there, it didnt fix the problem when it booted back up so i booted into clockwork and figured i'd try reflashing gb while on gb, as soon as it was done flashing the second time the problem went away for me.

sorry i didnt respond sooner, i coach soccer for my step daughters rec team.

Anyone able to the camera flash to work? I can't turn it on through Extended Control widget or even the camera app

 

[woodstorm]

Every time I reboot my phone, it starts be going straight to Clockwork. Why?

I had this issue when I first rooted 340. Seems to be a random glitch with CWM. It did go away.

If I long press on an app in the app drawer and select "Add to Home", it doesn't do anything. In order to add any app icon to a home screen, I have to long press on the screen, select Shortcuts, then Applications, and then choose what I want. Is anyone else having this issue?

The direct lock feature on PowerAmp causes my phone to reboot 75% of the time. It happens when I try to unlock the phone directly from the home screen widget.

Funny story i just got into work and im using my PowerAMP so i just got done setting up all my settings again...lol then i get on here and read this and im like crap!!!
Lol but so far no reboots for me but ill let you know

[RWil85]

has anyone experience the frequent dropping of 3G that some people cited while using rooted 2.3.340?

 

[Riverman]

do you have another launcher installed?

I did have Launcher Pro installed, but even after uninstalling it and restarting the phone, Add to Home still doesn't work.

how did you fix it? I noticed that my phone was turtling - i thought either the launcher or DX OC was the issue. but I did get it working Fine yesterday with both working, and now today i rebooted and ran into the same damn near stopped phone, which cleared up after a while. Where do i kill this mediaserver apk ?
