I installed build 14332 on a Lumia 640 shortly after it was released thinking that it would be smooth sailing considering how the last few builds have been major problem free for me. The first real problem I encountered with build 14332 was that I could not get into the settings menu. The quick action button for settings would not work, and there is no settings listed in the app list.
I thought a hard reset would fix this since a soft reset didn't, but I could not go into the settings I had to hard reset using the button method.
The two gears came up indicating that the phone was doing a hard reset but then the reset process crashed, a frowny face came on the screen and then the phone would reboot by itself. The same cycle would keep going on as the hard reset process would crash all the time. I have never experienced this problem with doing a hard reset on any build.
I tried fixing this with WDRT but it would not detect my phone regardless of what I did. I figured my phone might be bricked. So for the next 30 minutes or so I just kept clicking 'detect my phone' at various stages of the reboot process until finally with some luck it decided to detect my phone and install the package.
I don't know if this was just a random problem I encountered or if it is something to do with the build but i thought i should let people know in case they do a hard reset.
