Vabration and ringing problem

I've just realised that the ringing and the vibration disappears after some time, even if I leave the phone just to vibrate it doesn't, but if I reboot the phone it goes back to normal.

I've missed a lot of phone calls just because of this.

Does anyone have this problem?

Thanks
[Legend General] zbrinski:
Another bug, "people widget" all contacts disappear from widget after rebooting. Some of the photos (facebook ones) in people widget keep disappearing.

Friend stream application: if I go to accounts & sync/general settings/account settings in facebook it should show sync frequency and notifications,etc, but only sync frequency shows.

Sound feedback when typing is loud.

Or is it just me????
[Legend General] veej:
My biggest wish is (actually for most Android devices) the ability to delete all emails in the trash folder in one go and not have to delete them 1 by 1!

The other thing is that the ring can be a bit louder.
[Legend General] Knight77:
Mine is this (can anyone confirm??):

When I have to send a SMS and I click contacts - to choose to who send the sms - I see not only the cellphone contact of the cellphone but also the ones in Facebook, the strange thing is that the pics of the contacts are only the one of the two contacts I have in the cellphone and linked with FB, just repeated and repeated...
[Legend General] zbrinski:
I can confirm, when I try to add a contact it shows me phone contacts, sim card contacts and facebook contacts, so I get like 3 pictures of the same person if I have more than 1 phone number for him/her.

Bugs:

- GSM/3G internet connection sometimes stucks

- Frequent dropped calls (at least compared to my old HTC Magic). Apparently it often drops a call when switching between GSM and 3G

- Menu/Home/Back/Search buttons sometimes don't light up. You have to lock/unlock the phone to turn on the backlight.

Wish List:

- Home shortcuts for individual contact groups (Favorites, VIP, etc.)

- Option to open the default dialer with dial pad closed

- Option to open different tabs/groups in "People" application when pressing "Phone" button

- Add a HTC widget for configuring screen brightness that is aware of the phone's "auto adjust brightness" feature. Or add "Auto Brightness" support to the stock Android "Power Control" widget. (I know, there are third-party solutions in the Market, but it would be nice to have a stock official widget for that)

- Merge "Wallpaper" and "Wallpaper gallery". Why do we need the two?

- Allow "Footprints" to use network-based location (with GPS switched off)

- Multitouch in Maps

- +/- zoom buttons in Internet, just like in stock Android browser (pinch-to-zoom is nice and all, but for one hand operation these are much more convenient than double-tapping)

- Add an option to launch embedded YouTube videos in YouTube application (and not only in HTC Flash Player). Personally, I would have preferred to switch off Flash plug-in altogether, while still keeping the ability to watch YouTube videos embedded into web pages.

Rss Hub News Reader

I've got another problem: the news of the "news" application cannot be updated. Dunno why, the url is set properly but keep on showing "updating" but nothing happens...

Any solution? :(
[Legend General] kayu89:
I found that when using the youtube picture does not have audio synchronization ....:(
[Legend General] Kabbie:
This is because its coupled with the light sensor. The keys won't light up if you keep in the light.
[Legend General] zbrinski:
I wish that when browsing Market the application list didn't go to the beginning when I flip the phone.

Also wish that the calculator had the percentage button. How could they miss that??

Regards
[Legend General] danton47:
I'm aware of that. Still, I had couple of cases when backlight didn't turn on in almost complete darkness - that's why I actually noticed it.
[Legend General] LecterMe:
I have this bug too.
[Legend General] Knight77:
Now I did not change anything since yesterday but it downloaded the news. Problem? Hem...I thought it would play podcast...no. It doesn't. :(
[Legend General] jakontil:
It is tricky.... so is friendstream... once it failed to update status on either twitter or facebook or both

sometime when there is incoming call, ringtone works fine at the first cycle, but after that, the volume seems lowered

note that i have already disabled 'quiet ring on pickup'
[Legend General] veej:
I found the solution to the delete all problem. if you go into the trash folder and hit the delete button, hitting the menu button again will bring up the "mark all" option. Bingo!

problem with sense, when you want to create a calendar reminder, it doesn't show the day name, just date format. annoying if you want to set something for example for next Thursday, you need to look up the date before you get to the reminder entry screen
[Legend General] Knight77:
Does anybody know how to solve this? And another thing: when I have to send an sms is it possible to see only the contacts on the phone and not the whole list of people (also the one of facebook)?
[Legend General] BicolXpress:
Make handcent the default messagin app?

go to the messaging app and on "To": just type the name of the person your sending the text to and if they both have the same name, pick the right one that is on the list.

Now my problem is this. After installing handcent sms from the market i get two notifications whenever i receive an sms/text, one from the htc messaging app and the other from handcent. How do I make handcent the default so that I only get one notification for the text/sms.
[Legend General] Liquid211:
The problem described in post #5 I can confirm.

It says connected to 3g and the arrow for sending data flashes but nothing more happens. If i disconnect and reconnect everything works again. But it's really annoying.
[Legend General] Knight77:
Thanks for the hint but...no...I will try to be more clear:

If I go to "contacts" and click the "all contacts" button I see the contacts stored on the phone. Who has the pic because linked with fb has the pict, the others no.

Ok.

But If I have to send a sms and I go in messages and new, and then the little icon that take me to the "to:" ok there I see

A) all the contacts (cellphone AND facebook), then I see B) that the pics are wrong because many contacts use the pics of the two contacts of the phone (as said before) that are on my cellphone and are linked with FB.

I would like to avoid A) and B).

Is it possible? How?

The HTC Mail widget does not correctly update email list (at least with imap accounts): some deleted mails still appears in the list and read/unread status is not correct.
[Legend General] MyrdhinM:
-No one found something to get the

LED

on the back to torch yet?

-I'd like to get more possibilities when makin a shortcut to wherever.. like to the timer function for instance, or disabling/enabling the mobile network...:o

-And where are all those apps:confused: I want Layar, Barcode scanner, Voice to text.

-Oh and how about an equalizer on the music app?:)

PS

Solved

Had my Clock on auto-kill in my taskmanager cuz I thought: Why keep it on, the time still shows after closing the app.

On autokill it gets killed when turning off the screen and its function is to keep ur phone posted on alarms and all.. so thats why it wouldnt ring. I know this is stupid, im just posting incase there are others like me xD
[Legend General] KK43:
backlight on the four buttons has a mind of it's own, not sensitive enough and doesn't work half the time
[Legend General] Double-UA:
Check APN settings

I solved this problem by checking the APN settings... For some reason the Proxy and Port fields had values which I deleted. No more problems after deleting these values and leave these settings blank...

I cannot confirm if the connectivity problem (sometimes not picking up a data connection when leaving the WiFi zone) is solved by this.
[Legend General] Liquid211:
I find that holding your thump over the trackball-thingy while turning on the screen helps. But very annoying it dosen't light up when supposed to.
[Legend General] Liquid211:
My APN settings dosen't have any proxy or port settings and the problem still occurs no matter what I do. It's a minor thing but annoying as hell.
[Legend General] danton47:
Does anyone have problems with dropped or "hung" calls? At least compared to their previous phone?
[Legend General] MyrdhinM:
I found the light sensor is actually on the right upper corner, above the display.

If you cover that part, the button backlights turn on.

If you want to turn em off you'll have to hold that part in bright light,

I recommend carrying a flashlight everywhere you go, saves phone batteries;)

No dont have that yet, but earlier i read this wud be caused by the 3G reconnecting. So if you're gonna have an important call you could turn that off.
[Legend General] pollokp:
I've got some bugs in animations. Sometimes the openslideanimation doesn't work by opening the dial pad.

HTC Radio

Another bug is, that after the radio is turned on, RDS is taken from the first radio station according to the frequency, not the currectly listened one.
[Legend General] robto:
There is a synchronization problem in the HTC Mail Widget: in imap and exchange mail accounts, if one mail is deleted from a PC (not from PDA), the mail still appears in the HTC Mail Widget. If you click to open the email, the widget shows a different email (the following one).

I mailed HTC and they answered the following:

>-take off the battery WHILE the PDA is turned on to restart it.

>-Uninstall any 3rd party application you recently installed.

Estrange answer. Isn't it? I tried anyway, but the problem remains.

Did anybody meet this problem too or is something in my Legend?
[Legend General] adrian.gab:
me too.

These are my issues with the Legend so far. Please note I have no idea if they are specific to the Legend, Android 2.1 or HTC in general. The Legend is an unreal phone and the best phone I have had, so don't be put of by these minor issues (if you are looking to buy). For every minor issue I list there are ten cool features of this phone.

-The alarm does not go off when the phone is off. For all my other phones the alarm goes off when the phone is off. This has the major potential for me being late for work.

-The address book (HTC People) allows you to merge contacts from your phone, Gmail and Facebook together as one contact (such cool trick). After merging you can choose which name you want to display e.g. on your phone you might have them as "Johnny", in Gmail it might be "Smith, John" and in Facebook "John Smith". My issue is that it forgets your preference. It seems to fall back to the Gmail contact. Which is a pain cause what happens is that John is no longer in the J section because they are now in the S section i.e. "Smith, John". I've just ended up renaming my Gmail contacts to get around this.

- In the address book if a contact has a Facebook contact included it shows their recent Facebook status updates. When you scroll through your address book list it show's other people's status updates on the wrong person briefly. Usually you'll see Andy's status update scroll down and his is present on Ben's contact briefly then disappears.

- This is an Android issue but I wish you could close down apps within apps. Yes I have a task killer but this a little annoying.

- I believe this is an Android issue but I really wish you could better organise your apps. I would really love to separate apps I've downloaded from the ones that came installed from factory. Or even by app types e.g. Games, Media, Utilities etc

- When performing a web search in the browser because it assumes you would only type URLs so the space key is not on the first keyboard screen. You have to press a button to view another keyboard screen to access

- When typing text messages you can't easily add a smiley other then to type it manually. You have to hide the keyboard, press Menu (hardware button), press More (on-screen button), press Insert Smiley menu option

- Most of the screens where you select a time or date e.g. to select what hour or minute and alarm goes off or to select what date for a calendar entry it has those poker machines style rolling number lists. There such a pain. When you're at 1 if you want 50 you have scroll up 50 numbers, you cant go, 1, 0, 59, 58 etc.

- Sound profiles are very limited. It's either General, Vibrate or Silent. I miss my nokia's ability have a beep once profile, vibrate only, outdoors etc.

- If your phone is off and a calendar reminder time passes, when you turn the phone back on you get no reminder of the past event.

- It would be nice if the battery would last two days e.g. unplug from charger Monday morning after waking up, recharge on Tuesday night before bed time. Three days would be better though.
[Legend General] BicolXpress:
you can organise your apps by using the folder app on the phone
[Legend General] adrian.gab:
a knew you could add a folder on a home screen but i looked at the manual and now i know how to rename the folders. thanks, that helps.
[Legend General] MomijiTMO:
Hehe, this just doesn't happen any more. I had an E71 which would normally last 3 days, sometimes 4 days before needing a charge with moderate use. Then I got my Touch HD which did a day and a half on the stock rom. Fast forward to now and I normally get just over a day and don't care. I bought more batteries :p.

I know, it's not a proper solution but most of the devices these days enjoy a lot of power in their diet.

facebook widget problem

today when i checked the androids facebook widget its only showing updates of two of my friends...anyone know how i can solve this
[Legend General] sackynuts:
I second that!
[Legend General] zbrinski:
Hi. I had that problem too, but after 6 or 7 factory reset, it got back to normal.

I have sent this issue to HTC support and they didn't know about any issues related to this.

Our Legend needs an update to solve these small but irritating problems.

[Legend General] jjs87:
Does anyone else here has trouble with listing to music on the legend? Mine has some annoying background noise. Sounds like your calling a fax machine. It especially occurs while using the original ear buds but still occurs with a sennheiser headset.

And at battery use cell standby for some unknown reason always shows more hours in use then unplugged. When i unplug it it starts at 0 but after a while it can show to up to double the amount of hours in use :confused: Also always uses 70+% of battery if i need to believe the battery use.
[Legend General] dwaneDib:
I have the same problem with noise, especially when I use 3G or wifi is noise very loud. (Sennheiser PX 200 headphones.)
[Legend General] edsol:
hi, were you able to find a solution for this already? I'm having the same problem now. It just started yesterday. One moment it has vibration for the new text message, the next moment it just didn't want to vibrate anymore. So frustrating... planning to restore to factory setting.
[Legend General] adrian.gab:
a few more issues:

My alarm volume keeps default back to max volume! No matter how many times I change it back to a lower setting. And it is bloody loud when it goes off at 6:30am. Some other event is causing it to be reset.

When I edit an event that was entered into the Google Calendar website on my PC as an all day event. If I change it to a specific time rather than all day by unticking All day, no matter what time I choose it to be it is out by my timezone. e.g. If I choose 10:00AM when I click the Set button, it shows up as 20:00 PM. I'm down in Aus where we are +10GMT.

When the sound profile is set to vibrate only sounds still come out of the speaker from other apps.
[Legend General] KK43:
install sound manager, it has a vibrate setting that will make it work, keep it set to vibrate from messages options and only change the setting from sound manager
[Legend General] edsol:
thanks so much. It's working now!!!
[Legend General] KK43:
you're welcome, and if you don't want to open sound manager each time to change this setting (i.e. if you only need this setting changed not all the other options the app provides), you can create a shortcut to vibrate settings: while you're in the app under vibrate settings, click menu and select create shortcut
[Legend General] buzjay:
The reception wifi 3G seems to be a big problem comparing to Hero radio quality... !!! Hope this will be solved soon...

[Legend General] Sebastian768:
Fault:

- THE EDGE ON THE ALU CASING IS UNCOMFORTABLE TO USE AND ACTUALLY QUITE IRRETATING. It's too sharp/too cut right off making it a lot worse than the Hero to use as a phone. Don't these guy's test things like this. This actually might make me take it back. It's a major design fault....

Actually, this should be a deal breaker for a lot of people as we usually talk a lot on our phones. And, you shouldn't have this problem with a new phone in 2010.

Bugs:

- GSM/3G internet connection sometimes gets stuck

- Dropped WiFi all the time

- WiFi on Legend "disrupts" WiFi on my laptop. (It's ok when Legend turned off, but not when it's on. This is not a problem with my Hero at all)

- Apparently it often drops a call when switching between GSM and 3G

Wish List:

- The ability to have English menu set-up and other text input language than English. Ie. English menu system and Norwegian text input. This is the way it's on the Hero. Right now, I can't choose.

- Add a HTC widget for configuring screen brightness that is aware of the phone's "auto adjust brightness" feature.

- Multitouch in Maps

- Add an option to launch embedded YouTube videos in YouTube application (and not only in HTC Flash Player).
[Legend General] crubbish:
my list

HARDWARE problems

* weaker GSM/3G/Wi Fi radio compared to most phones

* battery compartment cover doesn't sit flash - there's a gap between it and the case

* only possible to wake device with power button, why not any hardware key? (this may be software rather than hardware, I'm not sure)

SOFTWARE problems

* HTC keyboard - intolerably loud sound feedback

* boot up sound - also extremely loud

* Calendar: no weekdays in agenda/day views in calendar, also no weekdays in date picker when adding event - VERY inconvinient

* Calendar: why have a silly big "Calendar" button at the bottom of Agenda and Month views? It does nothing. Why not have shortcuts to all other views there?

* Calendar settings: Default reminder time doesn't contain "None" as an option.

* Messages: no option to hide photos within a thread in messages - why have photos there in the first place? I'd understand this in the message list but why within a single thread which is a message exchange between 2 people (you & someone else)

I've been using Magic before which was plain Android and software-wise it was a better experience. I know, many people Love Sense UI but I wonder why HTC wouldn't consider an alternative official ROM which would be plain Android. They have it anyway (it surely was the base for Sense UI ROM) so why they don't give users such option? If I buy Android phone I'd like to have an option of using Native Android applications. I've switched the Sense off by the way but HTC apps are still there of course.
[Legend General] Steven1145:
I have the OS set up in English, but I regularly switch from English to French for text input while typing by pressing on the little cog-wheel icon and then changing the language. But I just checked on my phone, and can't see Norwegian as an option either.

Google Map & Navigation (Beta)... where?

Hi guys, I updated google maps, which supposedly comes with navigation (turn-by-turn). Was wondering how do i use that? I read that after searching for locations there's supposed to be a "Show on Map" and a "Navigate". But I only see "Show on Map", no "Navigate" anywhere. Am i missing something? Sorry, 1st time android user. So i'm quite noob. :p Thanks!
[Legend General] SImoxTa:
I bought my legend yesterday and i noticed like someone said before that the signal is quite weak, considering the position of the antennas (below where you handle the phone), do you think that once it will be rooted, it will be possible to improve (at least a bit) by SW?

Is there a way to get rid of all those default HTC apps? I've replaced so many of them with better alternatives already...

hi all,

i having my 1st Android phone (HTC Legend), but my set suffering Standby on Death (SOD), not sure if the right term. When it on standby, I not able to wake the phone; only way to remove the battery and on the phone again.

However, during it 'freeze' mode, try calling the phone; won't ring but caller doesn't get any engaged tone keep trying connect tone.

Please advise if any1 experience the above or any steps I can do.

** Try searching the web, only found SOD on Win phone.

Cheers.
