Maybe I didn't express myself clearly (happens from time to time), but it's not that a redstone block you're hitting turns everything darker. Only the redstone block itself becomes darker than the surrounding blocks even though it shouldn't with a torch or other light source right next to it.
Thanks for clearing that up

Somewhat Serious Bug:
When leaving directly from my world to a friends world my xbox freezed forcing me to restart the xbox. Alievated by going to the main menu before entering a friends world but kind of annoying.
Minor Bug:
When going down steps (not stairs or halfslabs) the sound animation for walking on those certain blocks doesn't, make noise, until you reach a flat expanse of blocks
Also, it seems like the issue with A-11 (Drowning with full air bubbles) is mostly lag, even on your own server because what happens with me is I just pop my head above water for a fraction of a second and that sometimes happens. The best solution I think is to just spend an extra couple of seconds above water before diving down.
This is a well known issue (you would have known that if you had at least read the FIRST POST IN THIS THREAD).
Anyways, this bug has been affecting my world in the worst way possible. Every single time I restart the server, all of our things are removed from our inventory. This has caused some people to avoid playing in my world! This is out of control. Please tell me you guys aren't going to wait until the next update to fix these MAJOR issues.
Oops.
Twitter post makes it apparent that 4J Studios can't even figure out what is going on with this one yet. sigh
P.S. I was reminded by my Minecraft friends that this EXACT scenario of player locations being reset and inventories being deleted happened three weeks ago on another friend's map. He also had a spawn prison but no valid backup so that world is gone. The player actually quit Xbox Minecraft and went to PC version over this bug, he was so distraught about losing all his world and all the work they had put into it. My friend is the same way over his map issue. We've played together all day, every day for three weeks in a row and today he's not even online.
Losing all your weeks of hard work is very disturbing and it's hard to get back into the game when this horrific bug occurs. You sort of lose all your motivation to play.
So this pre-dates the 1.7.3 update, if that helps. I'm sure 4J already knows that.

I probably lost over 72 hours of work into my map with that bug. I made a new one, but I always know my old one is better.
3. If there is a mine cart on a piece of powered railing that is not powered, and you bring power to it, the mine cart is unaffected. It should move once power is applied.
A minecart will move when power is applied to a powered rail if (a) the powered rail is on an incline or (B) the powered rail is next to a solid block and the minecart is all the way against that solid block.

Dude I have a spawn trap made of lava. Same thing happened to me. I almost lost my world, lucky I had a back up and made an obsidian bridge. Now I start as a new player every day and trot along my little birdge All seriousness though, 4J needs to fix this bug ASAP.
The game shouldn't have even been released containing such a horrible bug. Isn't that what game testers are for? lol

The problem is trying to reproduce a bug that only happens to certain Users and the maps they create, I've still yet to see this happen to any of the users we have.
We are currently trying to gather as much information as possible along with entering players worlds in order to find out what is happening, If you want me to take a look at your world message me your gamertag.

-Slimes survive if change of easy to peacefully
-Dogs stand up in Multiplayer but dogs not moving
-If the World reloaded, Redstone circuit (Clocks) has old state and works if Blocks refreshed (Reactivate Redstone Torch, Change Repeater Ticks, Button or lever)
-Piston flicker
-Map does not display correctly the direction Arrow -> You look North, Map Arrow is North-West or Noth-East ect.
-Animals spawn no more a lot the Map torches distributed
-If Monsters spawn on Top of the House and you go to bed and sleep, monsters spawn to bed
-Item Blocks no stick sometimes on sticky Piston
-Sometimes in Multiplayer turn up not possible by drowning (Player pulled down by damage)
-Slimes spawn in corner or in a Block (i dont know why then my Room is 40x40 big
-Slime spawn rate too low in a chunk? - i have a 40x40 rooms and spawn in 2 or 3 Hours or nothing in 1 Day
i forget, is possible the Map Coordinates Screen and not Map? i think a Option in Settings "Show Coordinates"
I'll answer each one below
-Slimes survive if change of easy to peacefully
I believe something in the code allows slimes to be active in Peaceful (But not to spawn)
-Dogs stand up in Multiplayer but dogs not moving
I'll have to look into this fully.
-If the World reloaded, Redstone circuit (Clocks) has old state and works if Blocks refreshed (Reactivate Redstone Torch, Change Repeater Ticks, Button or lever)
Another to look into although I think this may be on purpose because of our worlds
-Piston flicker
We are aware of this and are working to fix the flickering.
-Map does not display correctly the direction Arrow -> You look North, Map Arrow is North-West or Noth-East ect.
Same issue happened in Java, the arrow would move out of alignment when you turn the player a certain way.
-Animals spawn no more a lot the Map torches distributed
Not sure what you mean with this, Animals don't spawn at all?. If so you may be capped. I'd have to join the world to see exactly what you mean
-If Monsters spawn on Top of the House and you go to bed and sleep, monsters spawn to bed
Does the house have double doors?
-Item Blocks no stick sometimes on sticky Piston
Not all blocks stick to sticky pistons, which Blocks?
-Sometimes in Multiplayer turn up not possible by drowning (Player pulled down by damage)
The same happens in Java, its to do with being near the edge of a block (Dirt, sand etc), when water hits another block it creates a natural down-flow.
-Slimes spawn in corner or in a Block (i dont know why then my Room is 40x40 big
I'm guessing that corner is part of a chunk that can actively spawn Slimes
-Slime spawn rate too low in a chunk? - i have a 40x40 rooms and spawn in 2 or 3 Hours or nothing in 1 Day
Make sure you are not too close to the place you want to spawn slimes, also make sure using tools available on the internet that the chunk can spawn Slimes.

Duplication bug. I hear they fixed a similar bug recently, but this still works (as of last night anyway). Apologies if this is the wrong place to report it, but whatevs. I haven't seen anybody on the intertubes mention this yet.
1- Get a bunch of dispensers
2- Get 1 of the item to duplicate (keeping in mind you might just lose the item)
3- Place a dispenser
4- Get on top of dispenser (no idea if this is required, but it's how I was told)
5- Use a pickaxe to mine the dispenser ALMOST all the way
6- While still holding the trigger, switch to an axe (again, I was *told* an axe specifically)
7- When mined, the dispenser will briefly disappear and reappear
8- Jump off the dispenser and quickly go into it
9- Place your item in it and hold A, so it rapidly is put into/taken out of the dispenser
10- About 20% of the time, you will get 2 of the item you want when the dispenser disappears
11- You can pick one of those items up, now, go in your inventory and select it while standing near the second dropped item You can do this as many times as you like, as can anyone else
12- The inventory space will become an infinite block of that resource. The number will go down, but will reset to 64 when empty.
13- Fill a chest with said item by using the X button (placing it using A or Y will place the "infinite block" in the chest to use later)
Apparently, though I've not tried it myself, you can stack non-stacking items using this bug, and even stack more than 64 in one slot.
I'm sure there's some playing around to be done to find exactly where the root of the bug is, but that's the jist of it.
I doubt this is a bug, but I suppose it possibly could be and I could post it here for others to confirm or deny.
After updating to the newest version, I created a new world.
In this world, there is a CRAZY amount of hostile mobs that spawn. I have been playing Minecraft since (nearly) the beginning, and I've never seen this many mobs spawned. The problem is mostly with creepers and spiders--for instance, there were literally about 15 spiders that spawned about 100 blocks away from my house, all located in about a 15 block radius.
When I'm caving, I am constantly bombarded by creepers... over and over and over again. I've never seen anything like it--and I'm pretty sure there is not a dungeon nearby.
It's very unlikely that this is a bug (it's probably just my seed or something, I don't know) but I figured I might as well post here and see if other people were having the problem.
Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but when you mine a block of gravel at the bottom of a stack, the falling animation of the rest of the blocks is screwed up, flickering between black and the normal texture. Also applies to sand.
If you have "visible on maps" unchecked before joining someone's world, when you join said world the host (not sure if anyone else can) pull out their map the second you join and you appear on the map for a second. It's really annoying when you have friends exploiting it when you have a designated "war" world.

I believe this has to do with particles from adjacent blocks falling on the plate and keeping it active. Smoke, Lava spatter etc.
