I have never seen this issue on my Pre and would like to work with you to fix it. I am out of town without internet access (accept for my Pre ). Can I email or PM you next week?

I can send you a debug version to see what date/time string is being returned on your phone.

Sure you can contact me and I can definitely work on it with you. I'll PM you with my contact info. I have power cycled the phone with the battery out even just to make sure it wasn't some weird artifact that I had somehow created.

Haven't updated the Pixi to 1.4.1.1 yet... will do that soon and let you know.

Well I was able to use my Pre as a mobile hot spot and download the 1.4.1.1 SDK (awesome), but I am not seeing the issue on the Pixi.

Guess we'll have to see if Grabber5.0 has the issue when he updates.

I don't know why you would be the only one seeing the issue.

Nope. It's acting all kinds of weird. It stretches the pic vertically when maximized, and in card mode it looks like elvisem's screen shots.

Also, I noticed that the released version is compressing the picture vertically on my Pre when maximized, but aligns perfectly in card view. I will post screen shots tomorrow. One thing I noticed is the bottom of the picture shifts down slightly and the top shifts down about twice as far, when it is compressed.

Is the beta acting differently on the Pre? I will try to check (though it appears to have the same version #)

I tested both with and without notifications and the results were the same.

Bummer, I was really hoping you would see it on the emulator.

btw, I'm going to check thinkfree in the webbrowser. (it runs on full java)

Me too. The emulator is 1.4.1, not 1.4.1.1 so that may be the issue.

Well, at least you are seeing the same thing. Are you on Sprint or Verizon and do you have 1.4.1 or 1.4.1.1?

Having different versions out at the same time makes this even more fun for developers

Cool, screenshots will be helpful.

Sprint. Both phones have 1.4.1.1. I totally forgot about uploading the screen shots. I can upload them after my wife gets back home with her Pixi. I don't know if I mentioned it previously, but her Pixi does have Preware and homebrew apps, but no patches.

I am a little relieved that I am not the only one with the problem. I was feeling kind of nervous about it. ClearWater, If you need a list of apps (not too long) and patches (short) on my phone let me know, I think I mentioned some in my OP.

Ever since 1.4.1.1 Clear Card is not retaining my preferences like it did before. Every time I open it now it is as if I am opening it for the first time.

[Grabber5.0]

Well, she was here and gone, and I didn't have a chance to get the screen shots from her phone. Here are the ones from my Pre. It takes a lot of fingers to capture a screen shot while sliding from one photo to the next on your Pre. I thought that would make it easier to show the difference between the two screen shots of the wallpaper.

Anyone else seeing this behavior?

Thanks for the screenshots.

I see what you mean about the compression.

I've been OK on 1.4.1.1/Sprint...

Here are the Pixi screen shots. Looking at it on the phone, it appears the gap between the pic and the bottom of the screen is the same as the gap between the pic and the launcher.

Cool. Thanks for all the help!

It looks like the scale is off too. The heads look to big on the minimized card. Do you agree?

The offset you mention makes it look like they reverted back to the webOS 1.3.5 formatting or something.

I think I will do some mods in the beta and push an update for it for testing.

I should be able to work on it sometime this week.

Why can't we see this app in the Bell app catalog? Is in not available in Canada? Why?

it should be available everywhere.

what version of webOS do you have? I have 1.3.5 set as the minimum requirement.

UPDATE: Yikes! Nice catch. The international stuff was not correctly set. I am fixing it now. Thanks! It will take a couple days for Palm to review the change.

I'm on Bell's 1.4.1 and only see the free version.
