I also noticed the following today: - people calling me can not hear me on the other end of the line, while I do hear them - the ringtone is not playing on incomming calls - the phone keeps vibrating continously even when the call has been answered or hung up This, in combination with my findings posted yesterday, make current SHR-U unusable as daily phone. Guess I'll need to give SHR-T a go. Let me know if any of this needs to go in to the tracker if not already there. Niels.
