Reindexing on restart. Is this a bug?
Posted: Sun Sep 11, 2011 11:58 pm
I restarted my cellphone and when executed GD I had to reindex all the dictionaries and I have about 75! Is this the expected behaviour?

Once you restart your phone, it would get them from FAT, and they will become more coarse. I tried to combat this situation, but seems that this ain't that easy. Could you try to restart your phone once again to make sure no reindexing would happen this time?

I don't really understand how that can be possible at all with e.g the 1.1 -> 1.1.1 upgrade -- the only thing changed there was the font size for the popup activity. Could you check if timestamps seem to be changing on your dictionary files? Maybe there's some program which touches them or something?
