Some feedback on HTC Desire Android 2.2.2. I know some of these have already been fixed..

* Some info boxes take up more space than they should e.g Jonkoping (german wikipedia), Japan (English version)
* List of languages is not in a logical order
* Main page shows its face on changing language or exiting certain screens
*  Articles with long headings push down the arrow and are unclickable
* Links should have a highlight colour - there is no response on clicking a link
* Map view has no list view but I thought this was merged - https://github.com/wikimedia/WikipediaMobile/pull/210
* About page has no bottom padding so text is right at the end of the page
* Go to nearby and click back get a gap at top of page
* Footer has no link to history page
* Toggling is glitchy - not very responsive, animations seem to have troubles, icons sometimes disappear
* References are laggy to appear, appear and don't disappear when I scroll the article..
