If it were a bug, it would be happening to everyone. It is not. Its an issue.

Why? Who knows yet.

My guess is still that it has to do with not wiping the system totally clean (incl. sdcard) before the initial update.

Try backing up media (also look through your media's DIR for any ini or db file pertaining to android [like the ".thumbnails" directory in your DCIM folder] and delete it.), formatting the SDcard through windows, then factory resetting the phone, inserting the sdcard before first boot, restore your media -- see if that helps?

Im saying that because (and this is another guess, but thats all we have to work off of right now) Im wondering if android doesnt completely format the card (keeps hidden files and ".whatever" directories) in the way that windows would.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] topherdownfrown:
Going to do that plus redownload all my apps market rather than titanium backup. And try to redo tethered 2.2 install. Will post results later today. Thanks
[Kyocera Zio M6000] topherdownfrown:
ok...formatted sd card from comp...factory reset..unrooted..re-intalled 2.1 ...re-installed apps from market not from tit/backup...formatted sd card one more time from phone...rooted phone...

Good news...mybackup now works for me again

Bad news...so far the contact bug is still happening

ergggggg
[Kyocera Zio M6000] beatadalhagen:
As a last resort, *erase* the partitions and then re-run the updater. I repeat, *last resort*; I cannot think of anything else, but perhaps one of the regulars can.

Accelerometers

No one has said anything about the problem with the accelerometers. just try and use google sky map or a bubble level and the accelerometers are all over the place. turn on the bubble level and place the phone on the table and the bubble will jump around. didnt do that with 1.6.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] beatadalhagen:
Confirmed with sky map, also seen in tricorder (org.hermit.tricorder) under Geographic tab, suspect this is an issue with the compass sensor.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Baadooby:
My wife's Zio ever since the 2.2 update doesn't have a contact list.... ? When anyone calls that was on there it shows up gives there selected ring tone and even shows the picture if they had one. But if you go to contacts there is NOTHING there. . I have tried to re sync with her Gmail acct and still nothing. . It's massively frustrating.

Please help !
[Kyocera Zio M6000] kf4omc:
DO a factory Data Reset (Settings>Privacy>Factory Data Reset)

This will erase all data from your phone but not SD card. After doing that resync to Google and contacts should be back.

Bug/Issue:

Display brightness intermittently doesn't kick in all the way when waking up the display by pressing a key.

Production of bug/issue:

When I press the end key to wake my display up after it has been off, it sometimes will only turn the display brightness onto (what looks like) about 10% of full.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
Mono sound when headphones inserted.

Bug/Issue:

Upon initial headphone insertion, The output sound is Monotone (8bit sounding).

Reproduction of bug/issue:

When pluggin in my headphones to the M6000 for the first time, the sound plays back in monotone.

Solution:

Unplug the headphones, wait for headphone icon to disappear from statubar, then plug them back in.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] sinisin:
The issues with contacts can't be because of not wiping the phone. I didn't wipe anything, or do anything other then make sure the phone and computer were not running any apps other then the updater on the comp. I did the ZClusive update, but we all know it's really Crickets anyway.

Issue:

Wifi going to sleep whenever it feels like it, mainly when screen is off, despite sleep policy being set to never.

Reproduction: Tried changing it to all other options, rebooting, reconnected, set up router with new password. Issue is in the phone for sure. On wake, confirmed by no signal.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] sinisin:
I also have the same problem with wake lock screen not displaying proper brightness. You can see it almost go to normal brightness and then it decides not to. I believe all these issues are what lead Sprint to recall the update. Told them all to switch back to 2.1. What a freakin croc. Cricket is going to leave us screwed. Oh well. Someday we'll get source and then we can fix it all by ourselves.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] sinisin:
charging issue isnt isolated

The USB cable/charger my phone came with came out of the box broken. Have to curve it around the phone to get it to connect. Bought a quick charger with auto switch on it to avoid over charging. Hasnt affected my battery life, and significantly improved charge time. Although I do notice the area of the screen next to the plug does act very screwy when any charger is plugged into it. Although texting and functionality are still there. Cant remember what thread I read about this in, but it should have been this one so here is my reply.

I am also having the contacts list bug. All Contacts on my phone have the correct pictures but when you make or recieve a call it shows the wrong picutre.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] javajoe96:
Characters not showing up in text box

I have been having the problem lately of characters I am typing are not showing up in text boxes. I know it is registering my typing because I can see the on the screen that it is showing I am pressing the character and the auto complete will show my word as I type it out but it does not show up in the text box. It does not happen all the time seems random and usually if you restart it will fix it. For an example you can be typing a text and return to the home screen and go to respond to a text but now what you type is not showing in the text box. It appears to be random and not tied to any one app. But this is post 2.2 bug for me.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
I have the same thing happen to me in andchat specifically -- none others.

Are you using an aftermarket kbd?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
Try using stock keyboard or gingerbread keyboard
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
I know everyone has been reporting a whacky compass, my compass was shaky too. But, I tweaked the settings and after shaking my phone in a figure 8 to calibrate the compass and no more shaky compass.

Sensor default

Sensor Rate slowest
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
Explain to ppl where these settings are :-)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
OK... in the Compass app from the market by catch.com if you press menu within the app you will see these settings.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] wwwilly1986:
I have noticed that certain apps that I have installed to the SD card just vanish randomly and I have to reinstall them. Happenes with Pandora, Angry Birds, Root Explorer and probably other apps that I just don't notice or use often. Sometimes a reboot will bring them back to the app drawer and other times not. Anyone else experiencing this?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] frejolero:
+1

It has happened to me twice before with the exact same app, and ES Explorer. The first time a reboot solved it, but the second time I had to reinstall said apps. I can't find a cause though, or anybody else with this issue. :confused:
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
Happens from time to time.... remove SD card an reinsert SD card.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] sinisin:
If you are rooted with a partitioned SD, try an app called links2sd. Then use a program like Dual Boot. I can keep alot of stuff on SD that usually doesn't move without losing the apps on SD when I mount the SD to the comp. Problem solved.

I'm imagining the problem is mounting. Had the same thing happen when I had apps pushed to SD with Titanium Back Up that wouldn't move by themselves.

Any widgets that don't refresh are ok it seems to move to SD this way. Widgets that refresh(or are not clickable) are not good to move to SD. Along with anything that is used often as it slows down your performance significantly.

ok..my contacts caller id picture issue is solved! after numerous attempts of re-installing 2.2 or erasing contacts and re-applying them...this is what fixed it...erase your google contacts online completely..go online to wipe your mybackup account clean..write them down or print them out...erase your sd card completely using your pc...do factory reset...re-install 2.2..MANUALLY re-enter contacts..and yes I know this is a pain in the ass...after this my contact pictures have not messed up once...but only go throught all this trouble if you cant stand the wrong caller id pictures more than you cant stand all that manual contact entering..lol
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
Don't use the CricKet MyBackup. Just sync Google contacts instead. Problem solved. NEXT!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] topherdownfrown:
I had tried that...tried only using mybackup..only using google..problem is whatever is going wrong syncs back into google contacts as well as my backup..if you are having the problem...but if that way worked for you ..great..saves alot of trouble...

have tried the compass trick posted here..but it is still twitchy..makes playing hyper-jump a pain sometimes..lol
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
You have to calibrate the sensor.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] topherdownfrown:
From the compass app or is there something in the phone settings?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
OK, so this is something odd I found as far as Faceboook sync. My friend has the Hauwei Ascend also from cricKet. He couldn't sync Facebook aswell, until I flashed Icarus mod and after downloading Facebook and attemped to sync, had to sign out then add Facebook sync, it synced successfully. But when I signout then attempt to sync on mine I get no dice
[Kyocera Zio M6000] COW8OY:
***No contact list***

Once I updated to 2.2 from 1.6, my unrooted ZIO worked great, but my contact list only showed a few contacts which I had deleted a long time ago. None of my current contacts showed up. :mad: :mad: However, the text messages, all had the names, and you could access the contact's info from the messages, same for the call list. I tried everything to get the list to show, but backup would not add any contacts, as they were clearly somewhere on the phone already. What I wound up doing that worked, was I copied all of my files (including contacts file) from the SD card onto my pc, then formatted the SD. Then I did the factory reset on the phone. Then I recopied the previous SD contents back to the Sd, but only the contact file, music, pics, etc. Nothing that looked like it was for the operations on the phone. Then I brought up the empty contact list on my factory fresh looking phone, and imported the contacts. Finally.:D Even Cricket could not help me with this, and just opened a ticket on it. Hope it helps. :D:D:D:D:D
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
None of us with the leaked update are having these issues.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] hpservertech:
Which problems are you refering to? I have the leaked update and my contacts dont show up on incoming calls/text.

I have formatted the SD card, factory reset, did update again, synced google contacts and then tested, still same issue. This is all without ever using the mybackup app, installing any other software or even rooting the phone.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
My contacts show up after the first ring, it starts out just a number and a second later I have the contact information in front of me.

Worst case scenario, As long as you know what you are doing... You can use openzio's port of ClockworkMod Recovery to wipe your phone and use fastboot to flash the images that I pulled off of my phone just after wiping all data and reverting back to the stock update, Images can be found under the development section of the forum in the thread cricKet 2.2.1 stock rom
[Kyocera Zio M6000] bhatt86:
My brother in law and I both have this problem with our Sprint Zio's running 2.2 I did not have mine before the update but still having the problem been looking into maybe a setting that alerts you when you have little to no signal but so far haven't found anything. Any ideas out there?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] dbandroid:
I deal with this every day. There is no rhyme or reason to it. At first, I thought it was a battery alarm, but it happened when my battery was charged. So, I was turning the phone off to make it stop, until I realized I could make a call to stop it. WEIRD.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] dbandroid:
A factory reset seemed to solve this. It has been a few days without the problem.

:)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] elf-:
I have the same problem with the Krocera logo disappearing and being replaced by a white stripe I made a backup img in cwm and tried to boot into recoverymode using ROM Manager and it just wiped my phone to factory default so I flashed the backup img i made and now I can't get the Krocera logo back have you figured out how to get it back?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Fate43:
This is no longer an issue, a simple search would have pointed you to this thread where it was solved :)

[Kyocera Zio M6000] lukas_s:
I am having a problem with the device not waking up upon pressing one of the hardware buttons

never used to happen before, but now its happening at least once a day. the touch buttons light up, but the screen remains black. I have to do a battery pull to get my phone back to normal, but sometimes that causes my SD card to get completely wiped out

any fixes?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
I am _now_ experiencing the "wrong pic on incoming call" bug.

I have researched this bug, and it seems to be specific to our phones.

I have informed Kyocera of this bug, requesting a fix.

I'll keep looking to see if I can muster up a fix for a future OpenZio Rom update.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] pomeroythomas:
I've seen my friend's EVO do this as well. It is an issue on Google's servers.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] krunkpirate:
Dono if this was mentioned in this thread yet but VTL.launcher crashs when you switch your orientation in the app menu
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
Thats more of an app specific issue. Not OS related.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
I don't know if anyone has come up with a decent solution to this issue yet so I'll post it here.

The issue at hand is Facebook contacts sync, I have been fairly annoyed with not being able to have all of my facebook contacts in my contacts list. So I looked on the Android Market for an app that could allow them to sync... I found a neat app called Contapps, which is free. I set it up in the settings for facebook sync only, there are some others you can sync aswell, I logged in to my facebook and voila sync was established.

The only issue I had was a few contacts I had to do a manual sync and just pick their name from a list... No biggie.

Is there any developer that can look into AccountsAndSyncSettings.apk to see why we simply cannot add our facebook account to Accounts & Sync in settings?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] donthateme702:
I'm having random reboot and my screen freezes issue"s

I'm running openzio rom and installed step by step! Uninstalled task killer as suggested in post this thread, but still with same issue's. Any idea's?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ml3000:
I feel like I'm being impatient but I have emailed several developers and all the answers I have received have said that they either have not thought about it or they are not planning on building a tablet app. I keep looking everyday under apps for tablets section of the market place and it seems like it never changes. I saw the ipad 2 announcement today and it made me a little bummed seeing all the apps that they have. I have also heard that developers don't like developing for android cause they feel like we don't spend money on their apps. I just wish we didn't have this app stigma against us.....

Humph....
[Xoom Themes and Apps] keitht:
Which developers have you emailed out of curiosity?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] diaa08:
I've had the opposite response, hell I've been beta testing a few apps currently being optimized for Xoom from these developers. That said, I agree with the sentiment that Android users don't donate/pay enough to incentivize developers.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Aaron636r:
When the ipad released I believe there we're only like 40 apps. Patience guys....
[Xoom Themes and Apps] keitht:
Me too. Beta testing Android Agenda widget now.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] gbenj:
I think the ipad have a few thousand at launch. But it was a different situation as apple finalized the SDK and gave developers loads of time before they released the ipad.

Google only recently released the SDK with the hardware coming out soon after.

I think patience is the key, theres no question in my mind that the apps will come. There are too many tablets coming down the pike for apps not to follow.

I do feel like im out in the lake dipping my toes in the water before everyone else shows up, but thats what I (and presumably we all) knew when we bought the xoom.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] jondwillis:
Just so you know, "Apps for Tablets" are only those hand-picked and blessed by Google. (I think)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] gbenj:
(I think) too.

Anyone know where we can see the tablet optimized apps that arent listed in there? There really should be a tab for that in the market. (no pun indented)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] keitht:
I agree and it is one of my entries on my wish list in my sig. I hope that they are planning this and have not implemented it yet because there aren't many to choose from currently. But they really need to make it easier to see all apps that have tablet support in the market.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] diaa08:
yeah, even inside the market there are more apps in the individual catergories. also, the way that the SDK is written, i think google intends to have the apps to be the same for both tablets and phones, with the app itself adjusting its behavior based on what kind of device its on. one upside of this is that almost all the existing apps work and aren't just zoomed in versions of themselves like on the iPad with iPod apps; they just need to be updated to better make use of the additional real estate on our screens.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] daddiaz:
How did you get a chance to beta test some apps? Did you sign up somewhere? Or just contacted the devel.?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] diaa08:
other way around. but its not as glamorous as you think, a lot of sitting there experimenting with settings and emailing logs. just nice to be a bit of help since my programing/coding days are behind me.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ml3000:
hey thanks for the replys...

One developer that I have emailed is the created of dogcatcher, a podcast app. I feel like am just waiting for the bigger guys to put out something as well, like twitter or a new facebook app or something.

I agree to feeling like putting the toes in the water before anyone else. I really do like the xoom, just felt like I was feeling some doubts about the app community. I wish developers would see that we (are) willing to pay for decent apps! I would be more than willing to pay for something of quality.

I also agree about the app store. I've never been to big of a fan of apple. I mean they do make good products but they are not for me.they have however, made a great way to find iPad apps. You search for something and they show you both tablet and phone apps. That's also interesting about one app for two form factors. I didn't know that. Thank you for that information!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] diaa08:
No problem.

PS: I have also been in touch with Doggcatcher developer, since I use his app constantly. At least in our communications he mentioned that he was looking at options for us on the tablets, and that he definitely had some good ideas about what to do. His app is probably the most completely developed app I have used on Android, but he errs on the side of not breaking anything so it might take a little bit, but the app, in and of itself is quite usable on the Xoom as is.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] keitht:
Android Agenda Widget coming soon with tablet support.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ml3000:
may be naive but does the agenda widget just show calendar appointments?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] bobdude5:
not at all..it sucks. There isnt even a decent pdf reader. Originally i bought the ipad as a placeholder for the xoom, now that i have the xoom, i want my damn apps back. I'm returning this and getting the ipad 2. I LOVE the ui and i love android, but i hate the damn keyboard lag and I'm not patient enough to wait for apps.

Plus 300 bucks back in my pocket is alway a good thing :)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] keitht:
No, it hooks into task applications and other calendar apps too. For example, the one in my screenshot shows Oil change which is from the "Gtask" application for tasks. It also supports GotToDo, Astrid and Google Task Organizer in addition to Touchdown.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] funnycreature:
Man, I'm torn between "your screen is a big mess like my desk at work" and "this is so awesome" hahahaha! This is the best example of Honeycomb's potential which iOS has yet to achieve!!!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] dubsjw27:
Got to http://market.android.com and search for "tablet"

Close to 1400 apps will show. Some work some don't. I think there is a thread of apps people have tested
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ml3000:
you think they will actually come with something though that when you search for an app it brings back results for a tablet and for a android phone?
[Xoom General] RadDudeTommy:
THE ADS ARE SOOO SMALL!!! XD

I love it's especially on the xda app, its in the bottom left hand corner, and is barely noticable.

Someone should start a thread on good apps that work on the Xoom, or start it here, I personally would but I'm new to android, which is why I would like to know some good apps. I mostly operate off 3g connection, which is why I don't want to try the download and try and delete method.

3 gigs 35 dollar $-$ wtf.

Ill start with what I have downloaded that's not a tablet app and works fine.

-Xda (obviously)

-Astro file manager

-skype (I read somewhere that they were going to make a tablet specific version for a fee)

-Dr Webb for android

That's all really.

Two that I dl'd that didn't work were vevo and pocketcloud

Vevo didn't play videos at all but I haven't tried on wifi yet.

Pocketcloud worked like it should with massive lag even on wifi, might just be cause its a free app, I dont know, like I mentioned thus is my first android device. And I must say, it wins.

Anyway, please help me find great apps and ill return the favor.

One awesome one for tablets is PewPew :D
[Xoom General] Sirchuk:
Lol, I hadn't noticed the ad until you mentioned it. Just loaded xda on my xoom.
[Xoom General] Just-in-time:
yeah i love that. but im sure they will change it and have ads take up more space.
[Xoom General] B Dizzle:
Pay for the premium XDA app. Support the community and it's only $0.99 :D. I paid for it and I love the XDA theme and being able to set the app up the way I want it.
[Xoom General] Sirchuk:
My xda app crashes all the time. At first I thought it was my rooted evo, but it does the same thing at the same place on the xoom. Hard to pay for something that keeps fc'ing.
[Xoom General] funnycreature:
I posted a thread about that too but nothing has changed since... Sad to see that our support is not appreciated!
[Xoom General] RadDudeTommy:
If a tablet version is made, I will definitely buy the app. There are a lot of features I'd like to take advantage off that's not in the free app. But the free app does freeze a lot, right now I'm not even able to get into it because it's been stuck at the XDA loading screen. I can't seem to get it past that.

And I know they're going to make tablet apps with Huge ads, thats why phone apps are better ;)

Hopefully they do make a tablet app for XDA tho, I'll even pay $2 if it has most the features of the site.
[Xoom General] bogatyr:
When they take out the unneeded permissions (GPS, phone identity) I will. Till then I use the web browser.
[Xoom General] Sirchuk:
Go to manage applications in settings and reset the cache for the XDA App and it should fix the problem.
