Hi all,

As an additional data point, I have received similar reports before on
some 3.x devices, but there have been only one or two and I couldn't
reproduce them myself. Likewise this seems to work fine on my C6-00.

The problem seems to be related to opening the file selection dialog,
and I'm suspecting some filesystem area, plugin, or other application is
misbehaving, or there is some unexpected interaction between those.

Josh, a few questions to try to narrow this down:
- What phone are you using?
- Is it an operator variant?
- Have you updated the firmware?
- Where is PuTTY installed?
- Do you have some antivirus, encryption, or similar applications
installed?
- Do file manager type applications work?

Some comments online indicate that you can get this type of problems
after firmware update, backup/restore, reformat or similar operations
where the certificates and signatures for installed binaries go missing
but the binaries themselves are around. This could happen if the binary
is on the memory card, you reformat the phone completely, and then
reinsert the card. Obviously this hasn't happened to PuTTY itself since
it starts, but could have happened to something else.

Alternatively I could be passing bad parameters to the file open dialog,
but it does look pretty simple. :)


Cheers,
Petteri
