Official EB13 Bugs/Fixes Thread

[surfer01]

downloaded update and installed via windows 7 64bit, had issues with no camera, no ringer, and no notification sounds. Could not acess sounds for these functions via settings, echat to sprint, refresh device, all items work normally now

Went to the Sprint forums looking for help and saw a link to this thread so I thought I would register so I could post.

Got the update last night about 4AM, have been fighting with my phone ever since. Nothing seems to work right anymore. It's almost like it loaded a virus along with the update.

It keeps buzzing at me telling me I need to update security settings, then it wants me to activate email device administrator. First thing it tells me is doing this will allow email to "delete all data and - perform factory reset, deleting all data without confirmation". REALLY? I'm not a geek, so maybe I'm misunderstanding but that just doesn't sound like a good idea to me.

In the meantime it says my gmail password has changed (I didn't change it and it works just fine on my laptop), added a weird scrolling subject line to my email, and removed the email delete key, my landscape screen no longer works unless I slide the keyboard open, and the internet keeps timing out and the whole thing freezes up. Just to name a few of the issues I have been dealing with today. Wish I knew how to undo the update!

Like I said I am not a geek so I haven't changed anything other than add a few apps so I didn't expect it to give me all these problems.

Hope everyone else has better luck than I have!

As promised if more bugs began to surface AND THEY DID i would share with all via a post. Turns out EB13 is like a roach motel with no vacancies just FULL OF BUGS. Where to begin? 1st bug to appear was the accelorometer it began freezing in landscape mode for minutes at a time. 2nd was wifi would not connect in fact all icons in the drop down menu would not work except gps. Lastly, while trying to adress the above issues the home button quit responding, when tapped there was a slight vibration but no action AND YES haptic feedback was disabled in settings menu. So unfotunatly eb13 has been a nightmare for me. I threw in the towel and headed back to a custom rom. Hope all goes better for other epic users.

so far so good for me..have you checked to make sure you got EB13 and not EB01? and have you tried a factory reset? and for accelometer..if you used odin you gotta recalibrate it...
