I am looking to get some feed back about the number of problems each of the users of the 2.1 v3 is having. I would like you to compare the issues your having now versus running 1.5. So 1.5 is the basis of the comparison so any improvements are not the issue just problems. So if your phone works better in 2.1 that's fine don't list it but if it works worse than original that's what I am trying to see.

ok well thats a start how many issues are you seeing overall for your phone? Like serious lags, Force closes, bad batter life, poor reception, Those types of things that those who are looking to run the leak need to see. I want to see where the majority of the issues are over a wide range of users!
Thanks but I am not looking for the fixes! I want to compile all the issues from as many users as possible and then try to assemble that data to see what are the big issues with the leaks! But Thanks for the suggestion.
Issue 1 Time and date on calendar. If I have an event from PC calendar synced to phone (work shift 7a monday through 7a Tuesday on PC) it will show up as all day event on both days, and will not allow me to edit the date. and the time will be 4 hours off if I try and edit it. If I set the wheels to 0700 the time entered on the calendar will be 0300.
Issue 2 Battery life is a little worse...Mostly I had an issue witht he camera..if i use it at all it will show up as 92% in the battery usage area. If I restart the phone it seems to be ok unless I use the camera again. It does not show up in the running tasks under the applications menu. So I dont know.
The 50% without service bug i have..but airplane mode fixes that.
dialer seems a little laggy...but it gets all the inputs..only an issue if I get impatient...if i click the name to call it and just put it up to my ear..i can hear it ringing before the screen even shows it started calling...so physically the dialer isnt lagging just the UI for it is....
However, even with all of that..the positives of 2.1 greatly outweigh the negatives of 1.5. This is the first leak i flashed so i went from 1.5 to 2.1v3. I love the power bar widget, I am using helix with 7 screens and 14 widgets running. I like widgets over programs lol.

Dialer lag and 50% signal are the only things i dislike about 2.1, other than that its great. I get better battery life now that i got v3 of the leak. 1.5 Was great to but like tgulch22 said, 2.1 outweighs 1.5 by a long shot.
Some people also get the no sound bug, but i havent had that with any of the leaks. But who knows it could happen to you.

I'm not having nearly as much dial lag as i was in v.2 but the actual process has always been terribly slow for me since v.1
But my biggest problem now is that my alarms are not going off. They're set correctly and the volume is up but it's acting like they're just not even on. It's annoying and made me late to work today.
Haptic still turns itself on/off randomly

To be honest I had major problems with lag and home buttons and just trying to use the phone. I didn't put my phone on charge that night and it went dead, dead. I charged it in the morning and it cleared up. I would think all the resets I prformed would have worked the same, but it must just have needed to die on it's own.
Ok found and fixed my problem with this one. The 2.1 camera allows for GPS to location stamp your pictures. Well I had this turned on, so as soon as I started the camera obviously the GPS started up and must have stayed active (yes I already have it set to always be on anyways) but it must have held my camera app open and running in the background. Or something...all I know is I disabled the location stamp and the 92% went away....
