2 annoying bugs

[chris4chelsea]

Hi all, just wondering if any of u have come across such bugs.
1. Themes disappearing
Today i connected my usb cable and accidentally selected Mass Storage mode. Suddenly my theme changed to a default theme. I clicked back into themes and try to reselect my installed themes but they all disappeared and only the 3 default ones left on the list. I had to restart before those installed themes came back for me to select.

2. Unable to unlock the phone
Sometimes after connecting my phone to the usb cable, the screen will be locked and no keys can unlock the phone. I had to remove the battery and restart the phone!!

Any suggestions to my bugs? i m still waiting for my firmware update, my product code still doesnt have update to the firmware!!! ****...

1. USB Bug - Very well known, and many people have lost far more than just a theme. James Whatley lost his entire music collection from the 32GB of Mass memory when removing the USB lead without ejecting it from the PC First. Something many of us do not do, or even know about.

2. yes, another known bug.

That is not a bug, if your themes are on the mass memory. As soon as you connect to PC in this mode the phone loses access to the Mass memory and reverts to whatever is available in the phone memory, i.e. the default themes in your case.

Bug or not, I've never had that trouble with the N95 8Gb, with themes installed on the mass memory.

Related to this is if you elect to store your email and text messages on mass memory, connect in mass storage mode, then disconnect, you lose your mailboxes until you manually reset the option to store on mass memory.

If it's not a bug, it's bad, bad design.

I do not believe that. If your current active theme is on the mass memory and you connect to PC in Mass memory it will be replaced by a default one from the phone memory. It is like that on every single N-series I've had so far (that's five different models, incl. N95-1, N95-2 and N82) plus the 5800.

After you disconnect from the PC and the phone re-establishes access to the mass memory, it reverts to the previously selected theme from the mass memory.

I m back and I remembered correctly (and tks to BubbaHotepUK pointing it out), text messages changed to phone mem and i have to manually change it back to mass mem...

NOKIA... how long do i have to wait for the v11... (even tho i dont know if v11 will fix these 2 bugs together with other bugsss)

That's the whole point, the N97 doesn't revert to the mass memory theme on disconnecting.

I don't remember seeing that fixed in the changelog ... can anyone with V11 says if it has?
