Your only hope to get these fixed is to post the petition to the community and hope that community fixes these... :)

There is _zero_ Harmattan R&D people still in Nokia to fix any bugs (they all have been fired quite a while ago), nobody has even read harmattan bugzilla since january 2012. If there are any subcontactors left, they will only fix critical security releated bugs, like if some easy to use sim unlock exploit get released then there is a small change that it will be looked into. (Although even that might be ignored, since TMO already had a thread of how to bruteforce calculate the sim unlock code, and that hole was just ignored).

Yes, Nokia should fix it, regardless their current mobile phone strategy.

Its not a bug but feature, battery drainage is not linear like explained in here http://smackerelofopinion.blogspot.f...-draining.html

There is no way to fix the feature since voltages measured from battery can vary randomly.

I noticed a minor bug recently in the recent call log. When I open call log the default view ("Recent Calls") shows the information correctly, with recent calls marked as "Today", "Yesterday", "Last Week", and "Older".

However, when I tap the top bar ("Recent Calls") to select a category (Missed, Received or Dialed), and then revert back to "Recent Calls", it messes up the time stamps and doesn't group the call logs correctly.

Pardon me if it doesn't make a lot of sense, but you can try it by following the steps:

1. Open call log through 'Phone' app
2. Notice the time stamps, the dates and the description match (Today, Yesterday, etc.)
3. Tap the top bar that reads "Recent calls" and select any of the options "Missed, Received or Dialed"
4. The time stamps for the filtered list still matches
5. Now tap on the top bar again and select "Recent calls" and you'll notice that the time stamps and descriptions don't match. Today will actually include calls from today, and two past days, similarly yesterday and last week!

For me moving the power saving settings from 20 to 10% does the job - sometime.
It is indeed a weird bug. I wonder if it is in the QT Layer..

EDIT : Sorry, just noticed this now :

the fact that the battery life is not linear is understandable; but the fact that it drops from barely above power saving to switching completely off without nothing in between goes way bejond that imo..

Then why is there twitter update for N950? Seems strange if Nokia isn't planning something (no matter how small it will be).

Or maybe the contractor accidentally released something XD

Single App update !== FW update, unfortunately.
Stop dreaming...

They are updating twitter because of the new API, 1.1, I'm not an expert but afaik without this update the app should stop working properly...

Ok, but i just now happened to have a sudden battery drop to 04%, i tried few refreshes from a n9 qtwek refresher, and after doing 'restart bme' battery level jumped back to 15%.

As you know phone switches itself off when on low battery, even if it is just misreported to be low, but rebooting takes another unnecessary toll on power level. Anyway, there's hope i don't need to do full reboot but hopefully restarting bme(for what that stands for?) is enough, as happened just now.
