Eight "Known Issues" Reported in BlackBerry OS 4.1 release 529 for 8700



Rare it is, you know, that any software rev is built without at least a few Known Issues- generally minor bugs that deemed inconsequential enough not to delay release.

Such is the case with BlackBerry OS 4.1 release 529 for the BlackBerry 87xx series.

In a post I put up on Saturday, you may have read about what has been fixed in this rev. Remember the old line, "accentuate the positive?"

But if you want to know what Known issues are in the "529," you can either read the BlackBerry Technical Knowledge Center document linked to the Read prompt at the bottom of this post- or just simply follow along with us here:Localization

If your display language is set to French and the message status in an email message contains the word "mailbox", the term might be translated as "voicemail". Impact: Some terms might not be translated correctly if your display language is set to French. Workaround: None.

In addition, if you type an incorrect SIM card PIN code, it might not be clear that typing an incorrect PIN code again causes your PIN to be blocked. Impact: Some elements of the user interface might not be translated correctly if your display language is set to German. Workaround: None.

If your display language is set to Dutch, some of the security options and information on the Profiles screen might not be translated. All of the AutoText entries appear in English.

MMS

If you are using the BlackBerry Dimension Zen theme, the Messages application might open after you send a multimedia message service (MMS) message or a short message service (SMS) text message from the phone. Impact: After you send an MMS or SMS text message, the Messages application might open instead of the SMS text and MMS messages program. Workaround: None.
