Developer Preview 8.1 Bugs and Defects Thread

[scgf]

i noticed that text messages are not ordered correctly.

New messages of this months are on top and older onces on the bottom, when i receive a new text message it is displayed under the last one of this months (currently 3th one from above).

Dunno if this is a bug or setting, i cannot find a setting for ordering my text message if it is...

Just check your time and date is set correctly. I've had this when I have restarted and forgot to reset the time and date.

1. On my Lumia 820 there is a hiss between songs (latest Music app). Was worse in previous version, but can still be clearly heard.

2. Time not changed automatically although set (travelled from Germany to Tallinn, 1hr difference). Even after 3-4 hours the phone was still showing German time.

Anyone had a problem whereby when composing an sms or similar, the words stop appearing and typing freezes? Only fixed by tapping away from the dialogue box and then back on it. I'm using a Nokia Lumia 1020.

For me this happens only when I search in Market and only sporadically.

Suddenly my screen brightness is set to high and cannot be set to auto and my touch buttons are not lighting up. Even after the latest update the issue cont. Soft reset doesn't work. (Lumia 920)

Any ideas?

After a few hard resets and now two updates later my HTC 8S is still having problems loading heavy sites (for example phonearena). The page loads fine but after 30 seconds or so IE crashes. At least it's way better then it was when 8.1 was just released - back then it didn't even load some websites. I'm hoping that this is a firmware problem and that HTC will fix this.

WhatsApp, Nokia Camera, Skype, Nokia MixRadio - Many apps crashing after soft reset.
On opening, they just show the loading dots for an instant, and crash back to the previous screen.
Tries uninstalling - reinstalling those apps. Say problem during install.
Help!

Hi all,
2 bugs I have
1) My location icon will appear in the top bar. Even though its not on

2) When playing a video from a webpage. It asks to open or save. If I open it a play it, if I press the skip buttons it will make a noise like a clicking noise. Even though my phone is on silent , vibrate only.

Certain emails cause the email app to crash. Not sure what about these emails causes it, but the emails from one particular user of my companies email system when sent from his Android device causes the mail app to crash. Hard for me to isolate it, but I think it has something to do with the sig.

I encountered and unusual problem with my Lumia 925 after the 8.1 preview update. At times one side of my earphone just goes blank, usually the right side. Seems like a glitch that fails to deliver the audio to the right channel.. Because all i need to do is a restart and it starts working fine again..

I get this issue quite often as well.

App duplications in app view.
Sometime after updating I have seen some tab duplications, not every time when I press back button to see the app view, but, in cases where say, high ram usage, I press back button and tap the screen in small intervals apps will duplicated although if taping the duplicated app it would return me to start screen. Any body else experiencing this?
Here are some screenshots.: http://1drv.ms/1jS5F6f

Hey brother,

I too am suffering from this issue. Have you been able to resolve it?

 

[Jeannuel]

Zero problems after the update. One thing that im noticing is the fast resuming of opened apps. Im still testing, maybe im wrong.

There may be another possibility that the buttons are short circuited because of moisture or water either on the phone or on the headset. Please check it once.

Hi andy0181,

Issue (1 & 2) seems to be you volume down button got stuck...check that..if your using a cover remove it and see..else remove the back panel and place it properly..if the issue still persists take it Nokia care and see to that volume down key is fixed...

I paused Xbox Music from a Bluetooth headset. Powered down the headset. A while later, powered the headset back on and attempted to re-start music playing from the headset. The audio just stuttered for over a minute until I killed the connection.

I have an issue with storage sense... Many times it just doesn't recognise my sd card... if I rerun the app it shows it again...

Im stuck at GEAR rolling screen for 30mins after doing the "power+volumn down+camera" button it still the same, anyone can please advise ? T_T

 

[hotphil]

Patience. It may take a long time for the gears to disappear. If you reset it while it was running, it may take even longer the next time as it tries to tidy up.
