2.1 Undocumented features/fixes list!!!

[MadGoat]

EXIF information remains on pictures now when emailing them from phone.
Sites like Flickr now show geotags and other camera information instead of nothing.

I can only hear music out of one of my speakers. Does 2.1 fix that?

That's because there is only one speaker.
The other is a mic.

That in the parental controls section you can now choose to disable the camera.

Why would someone want/need to do that?

To prevent their kids from using their phones to take and mail explicit pictures of themselves to people?

Though they were already doing a good job of that by leaving MMS off. 😉

That part at the middle of his post where he said "I'm just playing." means he already knows that.

My original post has been updated with a list of these undocumented changes that everyone has been pointing out. I've learned about a few cool changes that i would be using directly (3 clicks on the mic to rewind, voicemail over BT headset, etc.) I will continue to update the list as new changes come to light. Thanks and keep it coming!!!

overally, from what i've seen i'm pleased with the update, however i'm most concerned about the ALOD and hope there will be no reports of it for anyone running 2.1

once again thanks guys/gals!!!

Businesses as well.. don't steal the company secrets!

Here is one I found, now when you turn SMS preview off, it just says "New Test Message", where before it would say "New Text Message From____" so now you can be even more secretive...🙂

Im pretty sure the clock that shows up when you hit the home button when its on standby has been shrunk and moved up showing more of the album art.

I have a background that is designed for all the parts on the lock screen and everything still matches up perfectly. Maybe the clock was shrunk down or something?
