Description David Wash (reporter) 2010-12-15 19:21:06 UTC

SOFTWARE VERSION: 
(Settings > General > About product)
20.2010.36-2.002

EXACT STEPS LEADING TO PROBLEM: 
(Explain in detail what you do (e.g. tap on OK) and what you see (e.g. message
Connection Failed appears))
1. Installed Quicknote and thereafter scrolling screens were jumpy, choppy and
not smooth (lost some animation). In addition Weatherbug failed to load
("Connecting" screen shows but once the map screen appears Weatherbug
immediately closes as though I had pressed close). Soft reset (power off,
battery out) did not fix. Removed Quicknote and graphics improved but not
fully. Removed and reinstalled Weatherbug but problem persists. Used (Settings
> Settings drop down menu > Restore original settings) and graphics functions
were restored but Weatherbug problem persists. 
2. 
3. 

EXPECTED OUTCOME: I expected the installation and removal of Quicknote not to
effect graphics performance system wide and most improtantly should not effect 
non-associated software (Weatherbug).

ACTUAL OUTCOME: Graphics performance seriously degraded and user functions of
Weatherbug rendered inoperable by installation of Quicknote.

OTHER COMMENTS: As this is my first bug report I am unsure what specific
information you need to address this issue so I have made an effort to include
as much information as I can. If you need more or other information please feel
free to message me. I'd very much like to be able to use Weatherbug again and
that has not been possible since installing Quicknote.

Pretty comprehensive report.  THe only things I see lacking are version of
Quicknote and Weather bug.

It confuses me as to how Quicknote would hurt another app.  The only thing I
can think of would be that installing quicknote ended up updating a shared
library and it is the library fault but you then mentioned that uninstalling
helped a little bit.

Update - I have received an email from Jonny Mortensen of AWS (which is
responsible for Weatherbug) and the issue with Weatherbug is unrelated to the
installation of Quicknote. Proof that coincidence is not evidence! 
The graphics problem still appears to be associated with the Quicknote install.
Unless an update for Quicknote was released after Monday, December 13th the
version I installed would have to be 0.7.10.2 .

I do not see a method for me to update my bug report so I am listing here as an
update.
