After updating the firmware on my N97, there are bugs both new and old. I wanted to describe them to determine if they are widespread or if it might be an issue with my phone.
1. Landscape mode doesn't work properly. The top section of the screen rarely displays properly and instead usually shows a garbled mixture of the previous screen and the text or symbols from the current screen. This has happened since v10.
2. Yesterday the phone randomly lost all the folders and organisation from the menu. I think it happened after a memory full warning and me removing the battery to reboot the phone. It's never done this previously.
3. Sometimes after booting up, the phone will be keypad locked, and pressing the unlock button prompts the 'press unlock' message, but does not unlock the phone. This lasts for a few minutes.
4. If I'm using up all the RAM and receive a call, when I press answer or reject, it prompts the message 'request rejected'. This prevents the call being answered or rejected, and the flashing phone icon remains on the screen indefinitely until a reboot.
Besides these there are also times when the phone locks up and requires the battery to be removed. I initially thought this might be due to low RAM availability, but I do not receive alow RAM warning.

1. I don't get that but it often won't start the messaging application properly. The screen kinda hangs and I have to rub my finger down it which seems to force it to refresh.
2. Not yet, but something to look forward to.
3. Yes, drives me nuts and I usually end up having to pull the battery.
4. Phone call answering is something of a black art on this phone which generally involves trying to answer and hoping for the best. Quite often it hangs when ending a call and the battery has to be pulled.
Annoying. Annoying. Annoying.
Interesting to see these problems are replicated. Hope they are fixed in the next FW release!
