Official WPCentral patch 4.4.20 now available - fixes notification crashing issue

Information technology'southward patch day once again for the official WPCentral app. After a slightly rushed fix we released last week to address issues some regions were experiencing when using Microsoft'southward pubcenter advertising controls, a new issue was introduced that affected users with the Iconic tile enabled when launching from toast notifications.

We're happy to say that said issue is stock-still with today's release of version 4.4.twenty for Windows Phone 7 and Windows Telephone eight. You'll detect the full change list afterward the break as e'er, but if you lot'd rather but go grab the update then see the Windows Telephone Store here.

WPCentral v4.four.20 change list

Fixed crash on launch from notifications with Iconic tile
Fixed a message that would appear regarding the iconic live tile even when live tile is turned off
Fixed an event where the tile was only updated with 1 headline
Disabling the live tiles now returns the original static images
Disabling the live tile with the iconic pinned at present removes the iconic tile from outset
Corrected a typo on the settings screen

Please note that if you take the live tile currently turned off you will need to toggle the live tile on to return to the static live tile images. You lot should also be aware that the static alive tile in this country will nonetheless take 2 sides to it. This is due to a limitation imposed by the Windows Phone operating system whereby once a tile has ii sides it appears to be impossible to return to a one sided tile.

We'd like to remind everyone that this release is however targeted at the shortly consumer-facing build of Windows Telephone (then version 8 non 8.1). At that place are a few issues that touch on simply those running the developer preview of 8.1 that we wait to be providing an update for in the coming weeks. In the meantime please caput to our forums if yous'd similar to provide any other kind of feedback.
