I guess this is a thread to start keeping all the issues people are having with the ICON with Denim in one place. If your are posting an issue, note if it was a upgrade or hard reset. Now that Denim has been out in the wild for a few weeks, this would be a great shot to keep everything in one place and if you have a FIX for said issue.
Over all it's pretty good but, not bug free in anyway(after the delay I was really expecting almost perfect). It's got some issues that are driving me nuts. Here is what I have seen so far...
1. Internet Connection will just drop, no apps will get internet, random and under full LTE or Wi-Fi when it happens, This was a old issue that happened with 8.0 when we first got the phones, there was a patch that came down for it. After a soft reset everything is fine.
This is a major issue, because you can miss email with timed events, if you only look at the tiles, everything will appear fine, in till you open email and it will give you a "cant connect" message. In a business world, this CANT happen and needs to be addressed.
2. Store, I will see application updates listed but, even for a tiny (19mb) app update, it will keep giving a message "Cant connect to the store", internet it working fine(full LTE), it's a random per app issue(90$ of the time it will give this error), SOMETIMES it will work over LTE. If I turn on Wi-Fi it can connect fine and it downloads the update(s) fine.
3. Hey Cortana sensitivity. If I say, Hey Cortana and I am close to the phone (like a foot or so from my mouth) 95% of the time it will work. IF I am a few feet away, it does not work, same goes for in my pocket.
I did this test in my office, put face down on my desk, Hit the search button, ran across the room (about 6 feet away, marked point) and said a command, out of 3 times, Cortana heard me fine and got everything 95% right (with very minor background noise). If I am in the same room, at the same distance, and say, Hey Cortana, nothing happens, if I yell it, same thing, as I get closer, maybe a foot or 2 away, it will work.
From my pocket, while I am driving my Lexus LS (very quiet car), it's maybe 5% of the time it will work.
4. Camera focus, One of the biggest issues I was hoping to fix on this phone regarding the camera was a lot faster focus to capture the MOMENT. Yes, now the camera OPENS quicker but, taking a picture is not any faster if ANYTHING it's a little slower to focus. This does nothing to help the problems with this camera. As my wife's iPhone 5, will snap a "good" picture within a split second, on my phone it takes a second or 2 and it really is the difference in missing the "moment"
What other issues are you seeing ?
