Just like to add that I'm also facing this problem.

Unfortunately, there was no information about this bug earlier before I reset my N9 - so I've got a clean out of the box N9 right now which performs about 30% of what I typically use it for. Hopefully this issue is something that is easily fixable - I would definitely NOT like to wait until PR 1.3 to get back the remaining 70% of the device.

Like to add that this "issue" also affects developer mode - which essentially means I'm unable to debug/edit anything that "may" fix the issue. Maybe this is Step 1 of Elop's Master Plan to turn all our N9s into Lumia 800's.
