This is true, I don't think it's a bug. You could see it as a security issue or that it gives you access to other parts of the phone when the usage of 'phone' is not allowed i.e flight mode. You could only switch to flight mode when the phone is on but not when it's off.
I'm using vista and the only way to add track is via the mass storage option however if i put more than 15 albums across it runs super slow while playing them I dont suppose you see the same problem with yours?
I don't have that many on the phone, about 5 albums and it takes about 2 sec to list the tracks. But the general usage of the phone is OK.
They are many apps that you can get, look for iPod type converters ie 'anything' to mp4/M4V/3GP format. The Z8 screen is the same size as the 5th gen iPod so try these settings:
Format: MP4 Video Bitrate: 384 Audio Bitrate: 128 Res: 320x240
Finally, use the built in Media Player to view NOT Mobiclip.
It downloaded and installed OK albeit no branding on the icon. After moving the main screen from the US to UK, it zoomed in fine to my current location.
I managed to select a point on the map, in Marylebone, adding it as a favorite1 and view it in satellite view. Then I chose 'Directions' and entered a number on Oxford St but, to my surprise, it started somewhere on the A13! So I went back again I chose a point on Oxford St -> fav1...still no joy, this time it took me towards the Docklands.
There was no option on the menu for something like 'find me' so, I can't see where Vodafone come in. Unless I'm missing something, it doesn't deliver apart from zooming in to a location.
I don't think it's possible to access the keypad tones directly. It seems, so far, that the tones do change with some themes. I too have problems with Azure and Morning . That's why I'm still favoring and using Gloss.
