- GPS is not accurate
- Several software bugs
-(clicking on Facebook app launched the camera!?!?)
- phone does not light up when receiving a txt msg (yes, the notification settings are correct)
- Phone will use notification ringtone for some contacts, but not others
- Screen will flash before answering an incoming call (on and off...makes it hard to answer call)
- voicemail is consistently crashing, needing to forcestop....happens almost hourly
- apps consistently running in the background (and after reboot) that were never started (always having to use advanced task killer - instant messenging, sprint navigation, alarm clock, camera, music, nfl mobile live, moxier, ) these all seem to NEVER go away
- overall just seems a bit slow / laggy (swithcing between screens, apps, etc). I would blame this on 1.5 and not the phones hardware...

I'm sure there are others that I can't think of right now.

I'm crossing my fingers that 2.1 will take care of a lot of these...but who knows when that will be here...

- Hold the camera button down to access camera
- Check your wifi signal
- Update to CL14 for network-assisted GPS if you haven't already
- Which software bugs?
- The Facebook that comes packaged with the Moment is just a browser link. Search Facebook for Android for the official Facebook app.
- CL14 helped a bit with screen flickering. SDX kernels help even more.
- Get a new visual voicemail app from the market.
- Root your Moment and delete the pre-packaged apps that suck battery.
- See above.

I installed joeykrim's SDX 1.9.1 kernel and my Moment went from a little frustrating to an awesome phone. It's super easy to do that now with the Sprint Update Utility - it's almost idiot proof! In fact, most of your problems can easily be solved by switching to the SDX kernels.
