Well it's been a long 2 months for me, with the death of my Grandma and all that entails along with helping my Aunt and cousin move to separate places before another mortgage was due. I only had about 4 days with my Pandora before I left and I didn't want to bother with keeping track it so I stored the battery like instructed and that was it for 3 1/2 weeks. Now I'm back and after a few days the left nub is kinda loose and extends more than it should and I also hear some rattling inside, don't know if that's causation or correlation. So I've been kinda avoiding using it for the most part, thinking about returning it. I started using it last week, while trying to decide what to do.
As for software, not only do some apps randomly don't show up. Sometimes re-inserting the sd-card fixes it, sometimes it doesn't. Secondly, it seems like the battery, while running on standby, runs out quicker than it should especially if it stays in the case for too long, for example: I had the battery fully charged, then I took it to a cousins place where me and him played BattleJewels for like 30 minutes and used it to do lookup a walk-through for a game, wifi was on for like 10 minutes and the screen for like 20 minutes total. 50 minutes total. It was then powered down and put in the case, next morning no power. Maybe I'm mistaken but I sure thought it would last longer hen that. Lastly, now booting is getting messed up sometimes I just get a binking "_" other times I get stuck with about 1/3 of an inch left on the progress bar on the boot screen.
Thoughts? What damages caused others to return their Pandora for fixing? Is almost 2 months too long? How long did repairs take? I don't mean to be an ass but I didn't pay $500 dollars for it to give me this much trouble after less then 2 months.
