My settings are set to go to the "previous" screen on startup. If the LAST screen I am is the database menu and I shutdown and turn on again, I get "Database is not ready". However, the database seems to work perfectly fine. The same thing happens if I go to the top database menu, go back to the main menu, then turn off, and then turn the X5 back on.
If the LAST screen I am is something else like "Settings", then I don't get "Database is not ready" on startup and the database seems to work perfectly fine.
