Here is my report on 8.1RC

I did a fresh install (the previous installations were all messed up, 3 accounts , could not sync contacts anymore). So i remove every file and clean-installed it.

Registration failed, but gave no reason (sorry, forgot to dump teh console output). I registered with my previous code with no problem.

I synced all contacts, got couple of "wazapp not responding, kill it?" but i allowed it to do its business. After that all my contacts where there, with pictures and everything.

UI feels light and really responsive, it seems performance has improved from previous releases (could also be due to the new fastern9).

New UI improvements rock!!

Tested sounds and work as expected, silent profile included.

Only one minor annoyance, incoming msg don't auto-scroll, outgoing msg autoscroll to the previous msg. I don't know if that is happening to anybody else.

All in all, you're doing a great job!! I wish the stock msg was anything close to the Wazapp UI...

Thanks to all the devs involved!!

EDIT: sound does not obey the global volume, it sounds full blast.
