Hi all, this is my first post so I hope I'm doing this correct.
Essentially, over the past two weeks or so, my tmobile 925 has gained two strange problems.
A little background: It's running the developer preview of GDR3, and I'm eagerly awaiting black (maybe that'll fix these issues?). It's been on GDR3 since the day it was announced.
Anyway, the two problems both of which are problems I've seen others face, but soft resets fixed them for these people though not for me.
Problem one: More often than not, when someone calls me, it shows their phone number rather than their name and photo. Their name and all that is put in properly in my device and if I call them back pressing the phone button , it actually says "Calling (name)", so it's in there, it just doesn't show up when they call. Sometimes, it even changes after the fact. As in, they call and it says (xxx) xxx -xxxx is calling. I ignore or miss it. I call them back, it says Calling (Name). Then after I hang up, where it showed numbers had just called me, it now says their name. Strange. I've looked this up and people have said soft resets fix this. It didn't fix it for me.
Problem two: Arose around the same time as problem one. About a week or two ago. I don't get notifications for app updates. Not on the store tile, or in the store itself. If I go to a particular app, it will say "update" on the bottom, so the update process works, it just doesn't tell me like it should.... Again, soft reset didn't fix this for me.
I don't use wifi or bluetooth, both are turned off. I've checked apps running in the background and none have anything to do with this, so i'm not sure if any would affect it. Data connection is constant and always at full (I live downtown Seattle). So yar. Besides a hard reset, does anyone know if these issues have solutions? Or if anyone was experiencing this before and received black on their device, did it fix it?
Thanks!
