Its a crap way to deal with this issue but I found a patch that will disable kinetic scrolling (at least it worked on my modified Nokia 5800).

I hope nokia gets arround to cleaning this up at some stage.

Any firmware with kinetic scrolling support (including V50 for 5800) will break the listbox scrolling in python. This issue has to be fixed in the python runtime and unfortunately Nokia devs are dragging their feet on this one.

Sometimes I wonder if they even use Nokia phones themselves as this has been broken since version 1.9.7 (released in August 2009) and any python app that uses listboxes is essentially broken and unusable. Maybe they all use the latest Nokia 2100 phones...

At this point all I can do is swear at them and hope that someday it might be fixed ;-)

Do you have any idea if this was fixed in S60 V50? Seeing how it has yet to have an NA release, I can't verify it for myself, but I was wondering if any international users have confirmation one way or the other.

This is a known issue with the Python runtime. I have made Nokia aware of the issue over 6 months ago and am still waiting on a fix from them. Unfortunately until Nokia fixes this issue there is nothing I can do.

This is the official nokia bug:

Unfortunately this issue affect all 5th edition devices and is also the reason why I have not published a new version of the app on OVI yet.

Sorry

Running GoogleVoiceforS60 version 0.7.25 and S60 V40.2.005.465.03 on a Nokia 5800 Navi Edition.

The contacts list doesn't work, in the sense that the image doesn't update when I scroll down. If I highlight a section, then that particular line will be updated to the new contact. That is to say, it acts like a still image if I scroll in either direction, and updates whenever I touch an area, and then once again becomes a still image. Sorry if that sounds confusing, I can elucidate further if needed.

To note, this happened after I updated S60 from whatever version it was that came installed on the phone. Before, it was working fine. It has only started this issue after the update.
