I've experienced the following "bugs", which aren't listed in the opening post:

Laggy behaviour of Bing Maps Silverlight Control. This control is part of the official Windows Phone SDK, intended to be used by developers to add tile-based maps (Bing / Google) to their apps). I've posted two video's of this on YouTube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kixSTJT99-g

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUk1phv58Ys

Note that the built-in Bing Maps app works just fine (see first video). But that's a native app and doesn't use the Silverlight control. This issue has been reported to Microsoft and they're gonna look into this.

Play music in the background and scroll the Live Tiles quickly. Let them roll out and stop by themselves and they stutter just before they come to a complete stop. If playing music in the background already has such a big performance hit, I'm afraid we won't see multitasking coming on the current devices.
[Windows Phone 7 General] toolsche:
1) I have the rare bug, that the answer button doesn't work for about 10 seconds when I receive a call.

2) The marketplace crash bug is very annoying

3) I have some albums (mp3) that Zune doesn't detect (or rejects to display)
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
Strange, I did not notice this bug, and cannot reproduce it.

Anybody else faces it ?

Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 General] stringray:
It's very subtle. Just move them slowly and they will stutter right before they stop moving.

I must say the Live Tile performance as a whole has deteriorated a little. Sometimes the contents of the tiles hasn't yet been drawn on the screen when I quickly scroll to the bottom (i.e. the Tiles will just have some solid color). Sometimes there's some stuttering going on while scrolling. Maybe it's the amount of Tiles I use (25), with several of them being actual Live Tiles.

Of course it could be that my HTC 7 Trophy is just a bit slower than most other devices...
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
I noticed too. But it happens very rarely to me.

I do not know what causes this.

The problem may indeed come from your device. As far as I know HTC use SD card memory instead of NAND memory, what makes their devices a bit slowlier.

Anyway, it seems to me that Microsoft announced that, as from the next update, WP7 will be generally faster than it currently is. Hopefully your problems shall be solved.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kabumm:
I am wondering what live-tile everybody is using to notice that O_o

i got my phone 6 days ago, so maybe i havent found all apps i am interested in, but only live-tile app i got is htc hub which sucks anyway...
[Windows Phone 7 General] stringray:
You could try the following apps. They all have Live Tile support:

Beezz

WeatherBug

Countdown

My Football

TWiT
[Windows Phone 7 General] kabumm:
All apps i wouldn't really need.

But some other thing bothers me lately:

Maybe i didn't yet find out how, but seems like it's not possible in IE to enter a new website in landscape mode. I'll always have to flip back so that the adress bar would pop up. I'd like to slide down an adress bar in landscape mode or something like that (kinda like it's done with wifi, network, battery status).
[Windows Phone 7 General] TomFrom:
Is anyone else able to access attachments once you download them through the email client?

i use my gmail with the phone, and say i click to download a song from an email, you click on the attachment, it says its downloading, then its nowhere to be found to open...

or am i missing something?
[Windows Phone 7 General] kabumm:
Didnt test it with mp3, but got 2 powerpoint (pptx) attachments mailed via gmail.

then same procedure as you did. after "downloading" i switched to office-app and had my 2 pptx files there able to be opened.

so i would assume, mp3s and stuff should go to "music & videos" ?

//edit

okay i just checked myself.

i send me an mp3 attachment and did the usual downloading.

but i really couldnt find it anywhere too. BUT you can play it by clicking on it after downloading, its just nowhere in any app. -.-
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
It is email client problem. It has problems with some names or fonts.I also received recently an email with .doc attachement but after loading it I couldn't see it. I had to go to my email through browser to get it.

It's a very bad bug. I also hope we CAN just download mp3, maybe it's blocked?
[Windows Phone 7 General] kabumm:
eeehm, i assume everybody is using regular plans here and not prepaid?

i use prepaid and u can check your balance(?) by "calling" *100#, your credit will be shown on screen then. on normal phone i used to quit this call by pressing the red button ;)

on my mozart now it only says "close" under this message. but if i press "close" the message will pop up again after ~5 seconds and this goes forever.

only way to end that is by going to flight-mode and back.

did i miss some way to quit that "call" or is it really the only way? O.o
[Windows Phone 7 General] Shyatic:
Here's another on a Dell Venue Pro... Bluetooth takes a long time to pair, and often turns itself off and I have no idea.

Running WP7 on my HD2 and I haven't come across ANY of the bugs listed. That's odd lol...and I use it a lot.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ei05035:
Try rebooting the phone and look at the time and date. Got one right there. Also, in the HD2 you get somewhat blurry/noisy pictures. And you never had market problems? I envy you ! I know cause i got one as well ^^. Love the design. But functionality-wise it is still missing some stuff. Still, better than Android 1.0 ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Metallic-Force:
HD2 here... Battery life drains faster than a hummer's gas tank on a highway.

Also, I get constant reboots when the phone is idle, or sometimes it shuts down by-itself... It's been a night mare, I never know if my phone is off.

I feel when it reboots it-self that it has something with a it's battery saving software, because it only happens when I'm not using the phone....

I say good luck to everyone, I'm heading back to android but I'll come back when I feel that it's safe to!
[Windows Phone 7 General] manny84:
HD7 here.

I've had the device for about a week now and so for I've experienced the Marketplace crashing on multiple occasions, forcing me to reboot the device.

Also, what's with the low-res background in the Marketplace?
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
maybe this should be posted in the hd2 wp7 section. This has nothing to do with the OS itself on a native device. Your problems are probably sd card related.
[Windows Phone 7 General] fongfc:
Everytime when I open the Pictures Hub and tab "all". The "accounts settings" page will pop out. Its very annoying... (My phone is synced with live, Facebook)
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
i'm not experiencing this. is there a setting you haven't set in the phone? can you try forcing a sync with both facebook and live (holding down on each and syncing). and then see if it does it? mine goes to the albums list.
[Windows Phone 7 General] williamsean:
So, I went back to Android today. I think Windows Phone 7 is a really nice Operating system, but I see that there are a lot of functions missing and things to improve.

My issue list:

- The hole activation code issue, although 1 phone call to microsoft was enough to get an activation code, I didn't get marketplace to work. Fault of the cook or not(personally i don't think so), this proves to me the hole activation/marketplace/user-registration process is far too complicated, although I would guess this should be a pretty strait-forward meganism.

- Facebook intergration is missing functions like a tab for the photos of the person you are viewing. Also Microsoft should really do something special with the chat function of Facebook/Live or maybe think about intergrating functionallity like Whatsapp/Skype/Messenger/Twitter(should be possible with facebook or a live-account). Do this right and rule the mobile world with this OS.

- A music player should be able to fast-forward/scroll to the middle of a track, this basic functionallity is essential and was for me the last push towards flashing android back again.

- Office is a bit too simple, in other words, it's not finished. I really like the simplicity of it all, but this is too much. In all programs I'm missing a good menu with options like new/open/save. Excel: Column Resizing missing, "=" character should be in the numbers section of the keyboard. Powerpoint: Couldn't figure it out at all...

For the rest I really like the simplicity of the operating system, although I'm searching and not finding some functions I would expect, it's pretty complete for now, I would suggest a Windows Phone 7 device to my mother, so thats a good thing.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kabumm:
Isnt tap and holding forward-button workin? O_o

Only thing which sucks is you cant get right to any position in song like in every desktop-player. You always have to fast-forward or did i miss something?
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
how about you post this under the hd2 section???

Because you had trouble getting apps to download on a hacked device, that doesn't make it a bug for wp7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] williamsean:
Well, maybe I should have skipped that issue... It isn't the main thing anyways...
[Windows Phone 7 General] Innovative:
I am running WP7 DFT on my HD2. The very big problem is that it runs extremely slow. I have right now two phones in front of me: my old HD2 and an original HD7. Both are running Windows Phone 7. Below is a list of the problems I am experiencing on HD2:

1. After pressing the power button I cannot slide up the screen lock immediately. The screen is not responsive for 1-2 seconds after pressing the power button.

2. Applications open very slowly.

3. Sometimes the screen is unresponsive, it just freezes.

4. Marketplace and HTC Hub open slowly then I have to wait a lot for searches, displaying screenshots, loading app descriptions, etc. This is NOT happening on HD7, only on HD2.

5. It takes a very long time for applications to download and install from the Marketplace.

6. Sometimes screen refreshes take too long and the phone appears to freeze when sliding left and right.

7. When trying to shut down the phone the "goodbye" message remains on the screen and nothing happens, it does not shut down.

8. The same problems appear when I boot my phone without any SD card (this is why I don't believe that a slow SD card is causing all this).

Overall the phone CAN BE USED but if you keep in mind that I own two phones running Windows Phone 7 you can imagine how annoying the above problems can be. Any ideas?
[Windows Phone 7 General] kabumm:
Could you all stop posting "bugs" which occur only on HD2?

It isnt WP7s fault if its not working all fine on your HD2. Post these "bugs" in HD2-threads...
[Windows Phone 7 General] Niiceg:
Buy a phone, that's created to be with WP7!!! I hate these HD2 users *****ing in official WP7 forum, and "listing" all the "bugs" that they have, go to HD2 forums and cry there!
[Windows Phone 7 General] Innovative:
Please read my post once again. I already purchased HD7. I am only pointing out some bugs that appear on HD2. Keep in mind that the two phones are almost identical.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Niiceg:
Well, maybe they are similar with specs, but HD2 is not created for WP7 and WP7 is not created for HD2. You would better complain in HD2 forums, to developers, who ported WP7
[Windows Phone 7 General] imkarl:
HTC HD7

Did not see this bug listed, though it's another one with the Alarm. When Alarm is dismissed and I unlock the phone none of the live tiles are active. Pretty much the phone is frozen, only fix is reboot. It seems similar to the other Alarm issue with the security code but I do not have that active.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ruscik:
My issue with alarm clock is if by accident alarm clock goes off during message/e-mail/twitter sound it does not sound till next snooze so 1 min later. That is there is no other sounds playing. Said that even if phone is on silent and vibrates if alarm goes off it does not sound!!!

If I am on a phone call and alarm goes off I can not switch it off.

There is more.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Innovative:
Concerning my previous post and speed complains, my problem was solved by using a CLASS 2 SD. Details here:

[Windows Phone 7 General] purpl3rain:
Agree. Homebrew and custom rom are fun but barely valid to complain about something that did not have original intentions like having WP7 on an HD2.

Still waiting for WP7 to have some more functionality and personalization. I have iPhone 4 now but gonna move to Android when the Atrix 4G comes out.
[Windows Phone 7 General] israel.lopez217:
Add this one too: Just like the Zune HD, Windows Phone 7 cannot see Computer to Computer Wifi Networks, meaning a network similar to the one the HTC HD2 creates on the Wifi Router Application for Windows Mobile 6.5, and the one the iPhone creates with MyWi.

Official T-Mobile Sim Unlock Pin - Problems Windows 7 HTC

After receiving t-mobile's official unlock pin (Sim) and running on my HTC HD2 Windows 7 (unlocked with Chevron and fully operational incl. market place), the entered unlock pin from t-mobile is accepted at first. Having an ATT sim inserted, upon booting, a screen appears that indeed asks me to enter the sim unlock code. It also says "accepted".

On the Windows 7 home screen, however, the phone icon still shows "pin required" and the sim is not active.

Any solutions or ideas - has this been reported and addressed?
[Windows Phone 7 General] sayonical:
does anyone else wish they could select multiple text messages the way we do emails? I find myself tapping the side of text messages hoping to deleting multiple ones only be ignored and the text opens up -___- thats a design inconsistency!
[Windows Phone 7 General] pioterek2666:
This system is crap. Im goin back to old good WM.
[Windows Phone 7 General] oscar2010:
I guess this is a feature and not a bug and it is kind of annoying:

plug your phone on the charger and turn it off ->> it restarts. There is obviously no way to charge the phone without having it turned on?! Is this "feature" meant for the sync with the zune software over wifi?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Marvin_S:
Yes thats true and the software controlls the battery management i read.
[Windows Phone 7 General] metroidnemesis13:
I have the same problem as axel06. Anyone have any thoughts?
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
guys... don't post WP7 on HD2 bugs here, keep it in the HD2 thread. The HD2 is not an officially supported device and therefore any issues you experience with WP7 on it should not be included in the general WP7 experience with proper devices.
[Windows Phone 7 General] metroidnemesis13:
Hey, I figured this out:

Try loading and Android OS on an SD card and then put in your pin and it should say "Network Unlock Success". After that, reboot into WP7 and it should work perfectly. Worked for me. Thank me if this helps
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Another annoying things:

1: This ****ing email pictures policy, the same on WM6.5 makes many of my html emails NOT LOADING pictures, saying "download incomplete". Stupid stuff and completely unreliable

2: Even if the browser is set to "Desktop" some pages like

http://www.jamesallenonf1.com

Get loaded in mobile view and even if I choose desktop one on the site, it doesn't work and keeps reverting to mobile.
[Windows Phone 7 General] geoken:
I get a recurring problem on my HD7 where I won't be able to scroll a webpage down. I can scroll it up, but scrolling it down becomes completely unresponsive. I've sat there using very clear, deliberate swipes to verify that it isn't just my nail grazing it or something.

I can restore responsiveness by scrolling up, then down.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
thanks for the update. See you later (hopefully not).

Of course it is.... :confused:

does every single one of your posts have to use the f bomb, or do you have a daily quota to fill?

I think that is a htc touchscreen problem. I had it on my hd2 as well (running winmo, not wp7).
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
a HD2 is not an officially supported device and the reason i say that they should keep the bugs separate is because issues that arise may not always be a result of windows phone itself. for example the battery drain issue isn't a windows phone issue as all the supported windows phones don't have the issue. also the live services isn't an issue, but is for HD2 (unless you get the PVKs which technically you're doing illegally). So of course it is NOT.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
sorry, the sarcasm didn't come through.

:D
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
lol np. yea, text is always hard to read off especially in large batches like you did. saracasm tags are always good :P. or the simple use of something cheeky on the end like :P.

I'm havinig a problem with the multi-touch pinch-to-zoom to be highly inconsistent. I think I noticed this is many of the review videos also.

Couldn't find this problem in the first page so I thought it's worth mentioning.
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
what device are you using? how to replicate this issue? i haven't had any issues with pinch-to-zoom in the pictures hub or in web pages.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
maybe a problem on the dev phones that were pre-production, but hadn't heard anything on the release devices.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Sean D.:
Ok, wow... way too much crying in here too.

GPRS connection not editable

I have this grudge. Many GPRS connections in India as well as abroad use a proxy server in their Access Point Setting. WP7 allows only for adding APN, username & password. Without the Proxy Server address, the connection fails. Something this basic is available both in Android & iOS

Hi!

There is no HID profile in bluetooth so you cannot connect any bluetooth keyboard to your WP7 device.

Bug Confirmation Needed

I was downloading a PDF and closed out of the browser while responding to a SMS.

I think the download continues in the background, it was the free Silverlight for Windows Phone book and in the SMS thread i started typing a message.

I typed about 160 characters worth and then the keyboard kept minimising itself and the message thread moved down.

i clicked on the message box and keyboard comes up but then quickly hides away again. It happened a few times so i just quit out of messages, went into internet explorer and the PDF was still going. Once finished, went to same SMS and everything was fine.
[Windows Phone 7 General] amahfouz:

Sound stops working in Zune player sometimes. Have to reboot to get sound back.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
As well as I'm enjoying WP7 in many scenarios I discover more and more little stupid bugs and terrible inconsistencies.

And what bugs me, it doesn't look like MS is planning any little upgrades to improve things.

Problems I discovered lately:

1. Upgrade process is unreliable. With UStream I got a message about "Problem with license". But the app was working

2. WikiPanda has lost it's icon in app list. I had to reinstall it.

3. Word is even more stupid. It enables comments in new docs I create in the device, but they are disabled in any imported docs.

It is unbelievable MS screwed their own PRODUCT!!!!!!

Guys who created this version of office are brainless assholes, sorry, this is beyond any logic.
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
1) and 3) added to the list on post #1; Thanks for reporting them;

Doministry, are you sure about 2) ? Maybe you uninstalled it by mistake?
[Windows Phone 7 General] andrew-in-woking:
Wikipanda icon

Hi all

I found that the Wikipanda icon disappeared (leaving just the star) after the update until I restarted the device. I think that this is a but that appears when an application is updated and the update changes its icon.

Cheers

Andrew
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Thanks, I will report anything I see, to help improve.

I am totally sure of 2) - WikiPanda icon. By "lost icon" I mean instead of the icon it was the little circle we get when scroll really fast through apps and they just take a moment to refresh with this circle.

I uninstalled and installed again this one, all is fine.

One more:

In Word after some time of using document selecting txt becomes impossible. You can just select one word but nothing more. Closing the doc and opening it again solves the problem.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Yep this is it. It probably happened after the upgrade, like you.

So confirmed. Nothing like that with other apps.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
One more - on forums posting txt space, sometimes selecting a place to write/edit existing text with this little cursor, becomes very unreliable.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
REBOOTED today by itself.
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
Guys,

Apparently, despite many complaints from users Microsoft did not sove this issue in the new update.

one little thing i noticed... I was in facebook, posted a message and had caplocks on, then exited facebook and went to email, went to respond to someone's email, but caplock was stuck on. i couldn't turn caplock off.

can anyone else confirm this for me?
[Windows Phone 7 General] manny84:
Lock screen / tile homepage bug

As of late I've noticed that when I wake up my device it'll take me to my tile homepage (or any page that I was on previous), then quickly forward me to the lock screen page where I'm prompted to enter my 4 digit pin. This never happened before and I'm wondering what's causing this.

It's annoying. I did a factory reset on the phone, which didn't help.

Has anybody experienced this?
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Another bug:

Once IE crashes there are items left in the history which cannot be removed.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
[bug report]

After my HD7 has been booted for a while...like maybe a few hours or a day. I have to reboot it whenever I want to play music. No sound is produced until I reboot it. Maybe it has to do with using other apps, like games, for instance, prior to loading the music player, I don't know.
