I find that sometimes when I take a picture my phone will freeze... I can snap the photo and outer will show me the preview and will freeze before the side Bar comes up... the only way to get out is to press the home button but it won't save the photo... anyone else having this issue or have a fix?

I've had that happen a few times. Even if you hit the home button, if you go back into the camera, it will usually be in the same state. I usually do a force close and that seems to fix it. But if you don't have the ability to take the same pic again it can be frustrating. Haven't heard of any solution to the issue, perhaps someone with a leaked 2.2 install who had the problem on 2.1 can let us know if the update solved the issue.
