Did you do a restore? NOT doing that seems to be helping …

hmmmm, I read this post yesterday with great interest since I’d been having odd issues myself. What caught my eye was the ‘About product’ pic; mine showed ” rather than ‘2-2007.50-2′.

I reflashed and the version is now shown correctly, but the other odd little issues persist. I cannot get the thumb keyboard to pop up without resorting to hitting the center of the dpad. A second finger press in the text box was all that was needed in the past.

I’ve also noticed that navigation in general seems to have deteriorated a bit. Frequently, I find that I need to reselect an item to get it to “take”. This holds true whether I’m in a local application or trying to click a link on the web.

It’s the little things which frustrate us most.

Just updated the post … a fresh flash, without restore has solved this input issue. Would have been nice to know in advance of course, but at least it’s there now.

single, double and d-pad. none work. Double-tap is the way to get it to pop, but it does not happen all the time and when it does not work, it stops across the board on all entry fields. I’ve filed a bug …
