- Google talk signing out: Sometimes I'll find out that I've been signed out of google talk and never signed back in. Tends to happen when signal is lost. My Pre would reconnect when signal was restored, but the Pre2 seems to not do this or be much less aggressive about it. Frustrating to find out I've been "Offline" for hours without realizing it
- Gmail push email stops pushing: My email is set to get mail as it arrives. Once in a while I'll notice I haven't gotten any emails in a few hours. If I go into email and sync, I'll suddenly have lots of new mails and push will be restored.
Along with the google calendar issues people seem to have, it seems like webOS and Google (or maybe all Synergy services) may have an issue where connection isn't re-established like they should be.
- Landscape web browser gesture-scroll is wrong "distance". Using the gesture area to scroll a page in landscape mode overshoots by a couple of lines. This makes it kind of useless since you have to scroll back up a few lines every time if you're reading something.
- Scroll/render lock issue. Sometimes when you return to an app that has been open a while in the bacground, it's "locked", so you can't scroll or swipe up/down or left/right. Very noticeable in twitter apps and NewsRoom.
- Media indexing issues, discussed already.
Unlocked Pre2 on ATT here.
- Yes the google talk signing out is annoying. My Pre Plus never had that problem. When I first got my Pre2 I couldn't even sign in to Yahoo IM. So I bought MunduIM, which has it's own aggravating problems. My Pre2 ended up having other issues like not wanting to open links from emails or even launch google maps from an address in my contacts. And Pandora did not want to resume playing after a phone call. So I doctored. After that, everything worked again and Yahoo IM worked too. I can live without Facebook Chat so I have MunduIM but never use it. But I still have to make my phone sign in to messaging often. Even though I still see some of my IM contacts, signing in again will make them all show up.
As far as the email goes, the issue I have is that sometimes my data connection is lost, and then emails do not come in as a result. I did not have this issue with my Pre Plus, but a buddy of mine with a Pre Plus does have this issue, and has it worse than I do on my Pre2. He lives closer to Metro Atlanta than I do, and the only fix is to turn data off then on again, and sometimes even a restart. I do notice more issues when I am in his end of town. When I am on wifi, I never see this problem. My friend works for ATT, and other coworkers of his have similar data problems on Android phones, but his company Blackberry never has this issue. What is the Blackberry doing differently?
- I disabled the gesture scroll so I do not know about the wrong scroll distance issue
- Scroll Render Lock Issue - I have it too and can be annoying. What I have noticed is that it seems to happen after a notification comes in, specifically the latitude updater updating position or wallpaper switcharoo dowloading a new wallpaper
Other weirdnesses I have seen:
- Sometimes when trying to switch between apps, the card stays full size while going to card view. This happens most when trying to quickly switch between apps. Heres a screenshot:

- Uploading photos to facebook from the photos app is hit or miss. Sometimes it says upload complete and everything is good. Sometimes it gives me an error (im trying to remember I think it said login required), but then the photo ended up successfully uploading. What is annoying about this is that retrying the upload ends up having duplicate uploads in my albums.
- And why is scrolling through the call log so slow?
- Web pages appearing blank before scrolling
- Just type not being able to fit multiple lines of text, like when pasting a long web link.
