Bugs:

4. Status bar does not appear above the Home Screen in the App Switcher if it is entered from an app, but it is normal if it is entered directly from the Home Screen. See video of this, and see the screenshots!
5. After calling a number using the dialer in the phone app, the numbers and buttons at the top are misaligned when the call in ended.

13. After turn on Airplane Mode, the message "You must disable ariplane mode to place a call" does not display when make call from in Favorites or Recents.
14. Home button presses are sometimes registered as a double press despite the fact that the button was only pressed once.
