IE on Kaiser keeps locking up device - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hi,
I have a Kaiser which keeps locking up whenever I try to use IE. Very rarely will it actually load a complte page and allow youto click on a link. More often that not, the device hangs whilst trying to load a page, the little circle in the bottom right stops 'spinning', and everything freezes. The soft keys onscreen and even the hard keys stop working and you have to do a soft reset.
Is anyone else having this problem?

I had this on mine... wasn't sure what was causing it so did a hard reset and re-installed apps and its fine now. What apps/tweaks you got? Maybe there is something common that caused it?

I still have the problem on mine. I am using Opera now don't want to re-install all the apps.
My installed apps:
htc audio home plug
sktools
resco explorer
TT 6.032
iGo
Live Search
Google Maps
Opera
Palringo
BT Audio Toggle
Real One
Skype
Spb Backup
TCPMP
Sprite Backup
WM6 Remote Desktop
Yahoo Go 2.0

I have the following installed:
TomTom Navigator 6
SBP GPRS Monitor
OneNote Mobile
Fizz Traveller
Sprite Backup
Skype
HTC X- Button
I did have fit4Cat Hermes Tweaker installed, but as I was not using any of it I have just uninstalled it and tried IE and this time it is working.
Not sure ifthis really made the difference as Fit4Cat wasn't even running when I was having the problems. Weird.

I had the same issue but I had the patch installed that used the SD card for the IE cache. I removed that and did a warm reset.
I haven't had IE lock up on me in a day now on either Edge or 3g

That seems to have solved it!
The removal of Fit4Cat Hermes Tweaker was not the problem, it was a previous registry hack, that had worked on the Hermes, that I used to store the Cache on the Storage Card to save space.
I edited the registry to put the cache back on the device and IE loaded pages without locking up and it was much quicker too.
Thanks for this one.

Hmm I have that problem too ... and yes, I moved the cache to the card. I think that is the root cause.
Anyway, I use Opera Mini now which is way much faster. IE is just no contest against Opera Mini in terms of speed !

Same here, I changed the chache lokation to SD using Memmaid and IE was locking up randomly. But after reverting the settings back to original (use device memory) I didn't have a single hang.

Problem with SPB Pocket Plus & WM6.1...?

Hi there
Does anyone else use SPB Pocket Plus (latest version V4.0.2 - Dec 07) and WM6.1 and suffer the annoying problem where the today plugin icons don't pickup correctly after a reset?
It's easily fixed by clicking to refresh all tabs, but surely it shouldn't do it???
I'm also suffering a problem whereby not all text messages are received by my phone. (I posted in the General section with no joy - am hoping that you software guys may know if something conflicts?!) It's very strange as the phone lights up as if a text is coming through, then nothing happens. I've tried a Hard Reset and restore to no avail.
Wierd thing is, my mate has a Kaiser on Vodafone UK (V1615) running WM6.0 and he has the same problem - I'm on O2-UK so it's not a carrier problem.
I set his Kaiser up for him with much the same software as mine, including SPB PocketPlus V4.0.2...
I also (I know, I'm sorry!) have a problem with the today screen if I change things... For example, if I change the backdrop via Pictures and Video's, more often than not the phone will hang requiring a stylus reset. Am wondering if this is SPB PocketPlus related???
Any idea's? (Sorry about the multi questions!!)
Cheers
sorry about the double post!

As far as the PocketPlus, I am using it and I haven't had a problem at all with the icons or anything else for that matter. I haven't had any problems with the txt msgs either. You may need to reset the mms server?? I don't know about that, I just remember reading about it in another thread somewhere... As for the backdrop change, that's not a pocket plus related conflict. I am not sure what else you have installed, but I have changed mine multiple times in the past 2 days and haven't had a single problem or anything that told me I had reset or that I needed to soft reset the phone. I would suggest unistalling the Pocket Plus and reinstalling it. I know that I have had to do that before because of one of the other SPB proggies i used had changed some values in the registry for it. Otherwise, I would contact SPB, they would know how to fix it. Unless you didn't purchase it...
Hi Killerbeans!
I'v tried uninstalling and re-installing a couple of times to no avail unfortunately
The only other things I have installed (all bought and paid for!) that startup with the phone are SKTools (set to performance optimisation) and Kasperski AntiVirus...
I might try uninstalling those and SPB and reinstalling them one by one...
Cheers for the response though!
I have been havng the spb problems since 6.1 installation as well (I am with AT&T in the US, original Kaiser).
Thanks for pointing out the "Refresh All Tabs" option...I have to stupidly admit that I was not aware of it and I have been fixing the icons one at at a time....very boring...However, I have no solution to offer to the problem, other than to verify that it is a real one.
Hmm running fine on my kaiser with the hyperdragon roms...
Are you using the "close button" plugin? if so, did you enter tmail.exe and poutlook.exe as exceptions? don;t doing this could lead to problems
for the icons, I have the same problems too sometimes, did you install it on main memory? are the missing icons from programs installed on storagecard?
there is an option under today plugins->advanced, "refresh icons in today plug-in when storage card is inserted." try enabling that and see if it helps

Hi guys!
Thanks for the responses! It's 'good' to know it's not just me having the SPB problem, although not good that it's happening at all!
I've installed it on Storage Card (as I have since my Wizard days). Using SKTools I've set the SDDeamon to startup 1st so was hoping that'd sort it... it didn't
I'm glad the refresh all tabs helped!
I've added those exceptions Bartus so I'll report back! I have the refresh icons when storage card inserted already which doesn't seem to work. It is the apps located on the storage card that don't load though so it has do be something to do with that.
Go back to 4.0.1 it doesn't have the problem.
Hi Sirooga
I'll give that a try, if I still have it on my HDD!
Cheers!

Today Plugin Problems
I also use pocket plus on my Tilt, and it is apparently version 4.0.2 build 6227. What really annoys me is that the today plugin worked perfectly on wm 6.0, but after that &[email protected]#! 6.1 upgrade, it works fine for a few hours after I installed a lot of programs and soft resetted a bunch, until I backed up my phone. After using sprite Backup 5 ONCE, it deletes all my tabs and icons in the plugin and doesn't remember them no matter what I do. It still is checked in the today plugins menu, but it isn't there as there is nothing for it to show. SPB's got some serious work to do.

Today plug-ins shoud be installed to Main Memory.
Spb 4.01 works far better than 4.02 IMO.

Igo V8 - Manilla issue?

I've tried searching with no effect.
I've got IgoV8 installed on my phone, running the latest Hyperdragon rom.
If I have manilla disabled then Igo will run no problem, Enable manilla and it won't load. No errors, nothing.
Tomtom works fine. Anyone got any ideas?

You probably not using the latest version of the IGO8, I'm using 8.0.0.44366 and it runs smoothly on all the latest releases of HDIII as well as on some others (see in my sig below) I now that previous vers of the IGO8 had compatibility problems.
Cheers, just checked my device and i'm running 8.0.0.31442.
Will try an update.
I have a lot of problems running iGO when I have been running without a reset for a few days or I have multiple programs running..
iGO seems to demand a lot of ram to startup.. Not sure if it's some free/largest chunk type of check or if it truly attempts to load and it bombs out. I see the spiny busy cursor for a second or two then nothing else.. No messages from iGO.
I've pretty much given up on using it anymore.. Even when I do get it running by exiting most everything or doing a reset it seems like it only runs at most 20-25 minutes before it crashes.
BTW, I don't run Manilla or such, but I do run SPB Pocket Plus with Phone Alarm, SPB Weather, KaiserNotify, and Flexmail as my typical load.. And when I'm on the road, I typically also run TrackMe. This gives me about 30-35m of ram free typically, and when iGO is running it 'only' takes about 8m but it could need a lot more to startup, not sure.

Do you run HTC home? I had such problems when i have used Dutty's roms (not manilla), the conflict between Igo8 and htc home is a well known issue and you can find many posts on that.
I can get Igo8 to run correctly with Manilla2D (8.0.0.41506) so an upgrade should do the trick for you. this version seems to have a lot of problems if you minimize or exit the program. I think you are right with the ram, because occasionally Manilla2D will be closed when igo exits. I'm left with a screen that says "Click here to start touchflow2d" or something similar.
but a lot of times I just want to minimize IGo. and it is impossible to get it back if the running programs taskbar is hidden by manilla2d. running the program again opens a new instance, and causes all sorts of problems.
It wouldn't be so bad if Igo8 appeared in the task manager as a running program, but sadly it does not. I'm using the Opal task manager that is compatible with Manilla2D (XDA-Team TaskManager_2_1_34563_3.cab). Anyone know how to make Igo8 appear correctly as a running app in that task manager or any other solution to this issue?
All sorted, upgraded to 8.3.
Can you please sent link where can it be downloaded

Alarm5.wav randomly plays

I've asked AT&T for help with this, but they just say, format the rom and start over.
My issue is, throughout the day, at seemingly random times. Alarm5 will play for no apparent reason. There is nothing on the screen. It just plays. I've used SKTools to clean up phantom alarms, to no avail.
Ideally, I'd want to figure out what app is causing this to happen. Because it doesn't start until I install all my apps.
Apps I have installed
SKTools
SPB Mobileshell
SPB Weather2
SPB Time
SPB Phone Suite
youtubeplay
PocketTwitter
Skybook
GooSync
3dtracking
Googlemaps
GPS Test
Kaiser Notification Setup
Live Search
Opera 9.5
Palringo
PowerSMS
SPB Backup
WMWifiRouter
Anyone have any ideas either what app might be causing this or how I can locate what is causing it?
It keeps waking me up at night. I tried to just delete Alarm5.wav but it seems to be protected.

I have had issues with SPB Phone Suite, MobileShell, and Kaiser Notification Setup (if that is the app that changes the blinking light colors and patterns). I cannot remember which one of the the three I listed would randomly disable my sound throughout the day.
Try installing one app at a time use it for a few hours and then install the next. It is unlikely those apps are must haves because there are so many other options.
found it. Kaiser notifications has a feature to alert you of unread txt messages... grr... damn..

several apps not installing?

I recently bought the Topaz (Diamond2) after a succesfull, but broken Diamond. On that first Diamond I had (amongst others) CorePlayer, Advanced Config and Opera 9.5 beta (gears version) installed.
I installed everything again, but... not working at all?? Tomtom is working correctly (Topaz is MUCH faster than original diamond..!!), but the former apps won't run after installation.
The phone is without simlock (bought it without simcard).
coreplayer 1.3.2 works perfectly for me
I got Opera 9.5 running now; searched some fora and found a registry tweak for application unlocks. After that, I uninstalled 9.5 and installed again and it works. Coreplayer still giving errors while starting up.
Weird. I had Opera running last evening. This morning I connected to my wifi, and Opera will NOT start again. Installed again: still not running...
I also came across some notification while installing weatherdatabase editor; it said something like it couldn't pass the security of the weatherdatabase.
Looks like some firmware lock?
Anyone here having the new opera 9.5 version running? It is because the original Opera won't show picture fields while i'm not connected to wifi; when I'm on gprs/umts and try to play Travian, the icon's won't show up. When I connect to wifi, everything is OK. So, I tried installing the Opera 9.5 and on my old Diamond it worked. But not on the Topaz..
**EDIT**: After soft reset or power off, I have to reinstall Opera 9.5 Then it runs. Soft reset: stop running....

Out of memory error messages

Recently got a diamond touch and as it was previously locked to vodafone with some apps like opera seemingly tied in decided to flash it.
anyway all working good with wm 6.5 and touch FLO 3d2 installed but now im suffering memory issues.
an exmple of this is if i try to play any youtube clip i get not enough memory please close some running programs , even though nothing else is running.
also had this happen when trying several other apps.
could it be the diamond just doesnt have enough power when it comes to internal ram and rom to run apps well enough and that im gonna have to revert back to 6.1.
anyone else had this issue or know of a workaround
Theres lots off apps you can get to free up ram on your device, some are freeware look on google, also you can try disabling any home sceen plugins like tf3d and such b4 running any resorce hungry applications, and finally check what apps boot up with windows, disabling these can allso free up ram
im running htcaddicts clean ram but even if i run that direct b4 hand on a lvl 2 pass i stil get the issues. not sure how i would disable touch flo and tbh thats not really an option as i use the programs tab to access most stuff so disabling would mean navigation changes.
Im sure ive read a post on forum about some hardware settings you can change regarding cahche settings, flushing etc but cant for life of me find it anywhere
Try Schap's Advanced Configuration Tool you should be able to use that to tinker with cache settings ect
update on this, the memory problem even after hard reset and clearing cache is still an issue
build is wm 6.5 23016
memory shows as 107.96mb
now even running or trying to run the in built game teeter gives me the exact message
Initialize teeter fail.
Memory is not enough.
this is a real puzzle as even running clean ram and clearing cache and stuff and checking in task manager nothign seems to get round this.
has anyone else experienced this issue using 6.5
