    Hi folks. Is anyone else that's using a Z10STL100-2/10.2.1.1925 having problems viewing Crackberry in landscape? See screen shot below.

    Are you referring to word-wrap? Or what?

    Whenever I switch from portrait to landscape on the CB10 app it shrinks the text so small it's barely readable and doesn't fill the screen only the left hand side.

    The portrait to landscape bug has come with the latest update. It's strange they haven't fixed this yet. It wasn't there before.

    The landscape to portrait bug seems to have been fixed with the latest update. I haven't experienced it anymore since the update.

    Two other things I notice in the latest release:
    1. The Cancel and Post buttons at the top are aligned closer to the top than the bottom, which is just ugly.
    2. The main pictures in the General Articles are aligned to the left bezel with a rather large margin to the right, which also is very ugly.

    Just to add to your list I've found these to be irritating (to put it in polite terms) :

    - start page does not update automatically so you have to refresh basically making the app start up sequence a 2-step process.
    - the app is in dire need of a zoom feature, especially when you have to select a poll option in an article. Some images are impossible to view.
    - search function in forums should be restricted to the forum you are currently in. As it is now it searches everywhere and you get a lot of hits that are out of context. At least provide this option.
    - although much better now, the page jumping when scrolling down to the last post in a thread is still too sensitive.

    These issues should not be present in an app developed for a website that caters to BlackBerry enthusiasts.

    You can fix the homepage refresh by selecting it in the settings. You probably have it disabled. Next time you open the app it'll automatically refresh. You'll see the CB logo in the bottom left while it does.

    I agree on the poll. It should have the size of the article pictures. It's trial and error every time as it stands now.

    I'd go even further on the search option by including an option to select a category to search in. Plus, they should make first page and last page the first options in the page bar on top of threads. Navigating to page 1 in a 1k+ thread, let alone the 10 and 100k+, is almost undoable.

    I haven't experienced the scrolling issue since the latest update. I can't tell you what's up with that, unless don't have the latest release.

    I do have it set to "News". But there is no setting to enable.

    The version I have is 1.4.4. Like I said the page jumping is better but it still happens, although unlike the other issues I can live with it.

    Good point about the page navigation at the top.

    It's the sync settings I was talking about. It is enabled by default. I shut it off and set the interval to manual, I like it, it stays much cleaner this way in my opinion. If I reset my settings, the app refreshes automatically again. So I'd have to say you can control this through the sinc sync settings. Check the screen shot.

    In this case the app refreshes when I open the app. You'll notice the three stripes in the bottom left coming in after a few seconds.

    You must allow permissions for shared files. Swipe down from the home screen and select Settings / Security and Privacy / Permissions / CB10 / Shared Files toggle on.
