Recent apps bug/problem

youfail144 — Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:52:28 GMT

Hello,

I am using the latest firmware on my xperia p, and I have noticed a rather annoying problem in the recent apps screen.

When I long press home to open the recent apps, the screen does not dim if the amount of app previews goes outside of the screen space ( in other words, if the recent apps list is big enough to become scrollable, the background does not dim, so if I am currently on a white screen and I long press home, I am not able to read the text).

What's weird is that if I swipe to remove enough apps from the list so that it fits the screen, the background suddenly dims like it should..

Even weirder,this only occurs after a certain period of uptime.. After a reboot, the dimming problem is solved, but after some time (i am not sure what triggers it) , the problem comes back, until I reboot the phone again.

Does anyone know how to solve this? Or is it a software bug that will hopefully get corrected in an update?

Thanks!
