Eris 2.1 leak Bug's and Fixes

Man this is exciting! Okay, so I've found a new bug (maybe) that hasn't been mentioned yet. I think it all comes down to ATK playing rough with Sense.

I lost the ability to to use pinch-to-zoom.

Hopefully the 2.1 memory management is improved enough that I won't ever want to use a task killer again.

Actually this has nothing to do with ATK, or any task killer.

I can't pinch to zoom from any of the home screens, any pictures, and apparently dolphin browers.... after a reboot. Wierd??


-----update---------
I rebooted again and pinch and dual touch work again... definitely a bug.

Can you guys report what they're showing for Up time/Awake time ratio with 2.1?

Right now, I'm at 17:42:42 Up, and 17:29:35 Awake.

If I'm reading this right, this means my phone has been awake for all but about 13 minutes since I rebooted into 2.1 (haven't shut my phone off since I updated sometime around the middle of last night). With 1.5, I was averaging around 10-15% awake time, 20ish tops.

Now, holy hell I have spent a ton of time on my phone today, probably even more than I did the first day I had the Eris--but I KNOW I've put it down for more than ten minutes since I installed :)

However, I have been using it a ton, so I can't really compare the actual battery life to what I was getting previously with any sort of objectivity.

I wanted to see what you guys were getting for up/awake ratios, see if it's similar (maybe measured differently than it used to be?) or if I just have to hunt down the rogue process/app that's draining my battery.

(Also, thanks for the *228 reminder. I've been showing fewer bars since the update as well.)

Hey guys, here is the first issue I have found. 2.1 is running fine but not all of my contacts synced. I have a solid 80% of my contacts but random #'s are missing. Numbers I have added recently and months ago are missing. I go to my google account to check the sync status and when I go to sync my contacts again, a little message comes up at the bottom stating

"sync is currently experiencing problems, it will be back shortly."

I am logged online and checking my contacts on my gmail page and all the #'s are there, any ideas what to do. Is there a way I can export the list from my gmail and manually put it on my phone, there is an export option on gmail.

clock/weather widget is screwy, homescreen stuck on Elsmere won't change no matter what city I set it on. . . open up the weather program scroll to current city and hit Home. . . clock/weather stays on Elsmere. Can't delete Elsmere either from the weather/clock app. Any ideas?

Press the weather section of the widget, in the bottom left corner is a refresh button, press it. Problem solved for me.

2.1 was working fine alllll day long until now.
Now my phone has no sound when I get a call. I can't even change the ringer settings; there's no sound on the ringer preview and it is force closing every time I access the settings.

The touch screen is starting not to work either. I can't restart the phone without pulling the battery since the power button doesn't respond since it's stuck at the lock screen.

Yay.
