Is everyone dealing with freezing/crashing DIADs again?

[JL 0513]

Ever since the last update about 3 months ago, the DIADs are trash again. They had them stable for a good year before that. For some reason, it has gotten even worse the last 2 weeks. 15-20 restarts a day. I use a different DIAD each day so I know it's not one bad one.

I have to imagine corporate is aware? Why do they employ the worst software engineers? I haven't had a cellphone freeze or crash in about 15 years. It seems to be triggered by navigation in particular.

Hah funny I notice that too.
What about auto flash in dark hallways now? Or did I click something on accident?

Same here. Also it gets stuck a lot on map mode even when taking it out of the cradle and the back button doesn't clear it, but putting it back on the cradle and removing it again will. Stupid software for sure.

The last big update a couple of months ago partially brought maps back. Where you can see the dots (stops) on the map, and even click on them showing address. But it doesn't bring you to that stop or show pal # so largely useless.

That's the other thing they ruined, was how flash works and the results.

You just get a rhythm down about how long you wait after taking the picture, and now the flash causes the actual picture to be delayed which, to me, always results in a blurred, streaky photo because I'm moving when it actually takes it.
