Wifi Hotsync Issue

nethan · 11/01/2009, 11:45 AM

Apparently if you get an incoming phone call while hotsyncing over wifi on Classic, bad stuff happens. The whole pre froze (except my ringtone which kept playing) and I had to pull the battery to kill it.

On the restart the Pre was fine but Classic kept asking for a library and database and was unable to hotsync. It took a hard reset to clear the problem which means now I've got to reset all my preferences and what not.

Lesson learned I guess. Turn off the phone's radio before wifi syncing.

More info for the debug...

The Hotsync failed screen opened up fully (the one that shows says hotsync failed and what was synced) and then the incoming call screen (the callers picture plus the "answer" and "ignore" buttons) started sliding up from the bottom of the screen and got about halfway there before freezing.

None of the buttons worked on the Pre, but the ringtone kept right on playing, although the vibration associated with it wasn't working.
