Any experience the following and have answers to them?

1) Slow loadup of Keypad option (2-5 secs)

It that a "THOROUGH" Hard-reset will solve the problem.
No Registry settings or software will help.
With the fix, the load up still slower than the ATOM....

2) Slow toggle between the 3 tabs in the setting menu.

3) Bluetooth file transfers frequently abort with errors

4) Intermittent Screen Alignment issues. (Especially upon switch on)

I haven't had any of those problems. Every now and then it will hang for a second or two, but that's usually with 3 or 4 apps open and it is literally just a second or two slowdown. One of the things I did right after a hard reset was the WM5 performance enhancements that can be found here:

This seemed to speed things up quite a bit.

It seems that "Battery Power" Settings under the Backlight section does not get register after a soft reset.

The settings I'm referring to are " Turn off backlight if device is not used for XX mins"

In addition, Under the Advanced tab of the Power Section, "Turn off device if not used for xx mins" the settings are also lost after a soft reset.

Yes, I also encountered that SD card cannot be detected or disappeared sometimes! It was quite strange!!

I am also got such problems, if I install the process monitor and GPRS monitor software such as HandySwitcher, and SPB monitor, the phone sometimes will auto reset without any action, if didn't install, I didn't find this problem( I am not sure)
Usual SD card cna't be detected. Sometimes, when I turn on the phone, (not restart), the SD card disappeared, I try to reinsert the card, ok, card appeared, but sometimes, I must restart the phone then the problem can be solved.

I don't know the problem is hardware or software issues, anybody know it? If this is hardware issues? I think maybe no way to solve it lo!!!!! Maybe the Dopod can call them back?HOHOHOOHOHO

yes, i also encounter that problems... :(
for no.1, the salesman said that the ROM isn't stable enough... so, i must wait for the stable ROM...
no.2, even i use a SD card that supplied with my 818pro [Dopod, 1 GB], it's still sometimes can't be detected, even after plug-unplug the SD card...
no.3, the ActiveSync also sometimes launched itself, even it's not used during my sleep..., after i wake up, the activesync is launched itself... :x
but, for no.4 [wifi] i don't have a problem... :)

is there any answer for the problems that WE have???
thx...
