I have upgraded my Tytn II with the WM6.1 rom from the HTC site.
Since then I've noticed a couple of hours after a soft reset the pie wheel indicating busy pops up every 5-10 sec. As far as I can tell there is nothing I have installed that should require it to be thinking.
The phone then behaves very sluggishly till I soft reset again.
I thought it was maybe activesync.
I downloaded "MemMaid" so I could see what might be going on and terminate activesync.
Still no joy.
Anyone else able to suggest anything for me to try?
Is your phone a tilt?
Do you have Spb Pocket Plus Installed?
Just wondering if you have Spb pocket plus installed? If so, the problem may very well be just that – Spb Pocket Plus. Change your settings. I think you navigate there by going to Start - Settings - System - Spb Pocket Plus. Under that, you will find the relevant setting(s) to change. Once there, disable the "Refresh icons in today plug-in-when storage card is inserted", under the advanced options. I think this may be causing your headaches. – SOFT RESET AFTER MAKING CHANGES and hopefully, the hourglass will be gone. I used this program once a few months back and the same thing happened to me. My fix was uninstalling the app, but that may not be an option for you.

P.S. Report back here and let me know if this works or not.
P.S.S. Also, try uninstalling those programs you mentioned before you had the issue, ONE BY ONE, followed by soft resets after each one and see if any of those may be the culprit.

anyone know whats wrong?
You certainly have a few cabs installed there! Some of them still have a few bug issues if you search the Forum.
My advice is to backup your data, do a hard reset and then install your cabs one by one, using your phone for a few days between each to ensure all is OK and then you may find the culprit. I do know S2U2 has bug issues that are 'WIP'
It could be one cab or interaction between more than one causing your problem.
Hope this helps.

will try it out soon when i'm free, thanks alot mate
i find that the issues is with charing or wifi. happened a few times already. after charging the phone overnight, i wake up, turn on wifi and the whole thing just lags. applications like opening comm manager takes about 5 mins to open. every thing is affected, no choice but to soft reset the phone.
any others encountering the same issue?
I have a Kaiser too and the HTC Action Screen isn't working. Someone knows if there's a way to fix it?
I know this is my first post here but I've done my best to search the forums and I haven't found anything that looks like it helps me.
I just got my AT&T Tilt yesterday. It came unlocked (I'm using it with T-Mobile) and has an HTC ROM installed as well as various other apps (Ms. Pacman, TomTom 6, SuperDoku, etc.). I had some issues with it locking up yesterday (similar to what I'm experiencing now but to a much, much lesser degree) when I was playing around with it but those issues somehow corrected themselves.
This morning I installed the Tilt keyboard fix that TaurusBullba posted on here back in June to fix some mapping issues. Since I installed and soft reseted, everything has been going kinda haywire. The Wi-Fi turned itself off and I can't turn it back on. When I slide out the keyboard the orientation stays in portrait mode. When I try to shut down the phone using the power button it hangs forever. Now, actually, half the time I press the power button nothing happens at all.
I've tried uninstalling the CAB but that didn't fix anything at all. I'm afraid to try a hard reset because, from my understanding, I'm going to lose everything that came pre-installed on my phone for me. I should probably also add that last night I installed the Google Maps CAB with no problems whatsoever. Is there some simple solution I'm overlooking? Thanks much!
I would advise that if you have tried soft resets to try and resolve the issues and it hasn't worked, then perhaps a hard reset?
It sounds as if the software you have installed as either caused the problems or exacberated them (ie made them worse).
With hard reset it wipes everything back to when you got it. If you are able I would suggest that you plug it into the computer and make sure ActiveSync backups up your contents. You may also want to use this get all the files on the main memory either to the storage card or to you're PC.
As this is yo're first post I don't know how au fait you are with the above that I have mentioned
The preloaded apps will be reloaded again. You won't have an empty ROM if you do a hard reset. It will be as if you just flashed the ROM again.
Thanks for the replies guys. I went ahead and did a hard reset and it looks like the only thing I lost (or at least the only thing I miss) was TomTom. I've already reinstalled that using a link I found on here, and everything seems to be good to go.
I still have no idea what might have caused the problems though, so I'm afraid that they might come back or I might repeat some dumb mistake I made. I guess I'll just have to live with that for now.
clear storage / hard resets no big deal, just expect to do it every other week while you're finding all the cabs that work (or dont work) for you..
I generally clear storaged every week when i first got my tilt until I found all the app's I liked that didn't have side effects
I occasionaly have my Tilt displaying the hourglass (actually, the piegraph type colored graphic that effectivly is the hour glass for WM6), every 2-3 seconds.
I will go into the memory settings and see what programs are running..none. I open Memmaid, and go to processes, and there are several, but I don't see how I can tell which one is doing this.
A soft reset stops it.
Any ideas on how to figure out what's going on?
you should check your task manager and see if there are any programs running in the background or on start up...
Spb Pocket Plus Caused this problem for me......
Read this thread from Spb about this very issue.
http://www.spbclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=15644
I had the same problem and it turned out it was Spb Pocket Plus that was causing it. All I had to do was, un-check the advanced option "Refresh icons in today plug-in when storage card is inserted" and haven't had this problem since.
This may or may not solve your problem but it solved mine and apparently some others as well...

I had the same problem as the OP, and you are correct mchapman, it was SPB Pocket Plus. The problem was solved for me after unchecking the refresh icons settings, and also removing the storage card indicator from plugin.
Yep thats my thread over there.
I know for a fact that I got it the literal minute after installing the latest (2.0) version of Mobile Shell.
I had the whole package of SPB s/w installed for months and never had this problem.
The problem may be coming from Pocket Plus but it arose after upgrading to the latest version of mobile shell.
Thanks all. I'm giving it a try. I have not foudn the problem to be overly frequent, but annoying when it happens.
I just read the link from above over at SPB,and it seems that some folks in that link are not finding this to fix their problem.
I'll report back after a while with my results.
I have a telus CDMA Touch Diamond.
I have has for 3 weeks and the TouchFLO 3D interface multiple times does not load.
I have gone into the Today screen and unchecked the TouchFLO 3D, soft reset and then re-check and reset again. It still will not open.
I have even removed battery to see if that will resolve it
What would cause this issue?
As usual, the 3rd party support at HTC advises to hard reset, is this the only advise they can provide, oh, and they are suprised that this has never happened, I called 2 week ago with same issue.
I really do not want to hard reset every 2 weeks, this is not a resolution.
Any suggestion, I am really pi$#ed right now.
Please any suggestions to solve this issue, throwing out the windows seems to be an option right now!!!
on my diamond, when having a custom theme installed, deleting all *_manila files from the windows dir seems to be the best way to go back to the original theme (which still is in the rom). I had a similar problem yesterday, when i failed at manually editing one of the manila-files to add another tab-page (for a calendar).
I hope someone can help me with this before I go stark, raving mad.
I tried to search for this problem but it's hard to know just what to search for. I don't think this is Raphael specific but was unable to find a general software forum.
When an alarm or reminder goes off on my Fuze, I don't (usually) get the normal popup dialog. To get it, I need to tap on two tiny icons, which is a major pain. I've been fighting this for months. I've tried a hard reset followed by installing my software a programs one at a time with an alarm test after each install. I've tried restoring several old backups. I've still been unsuccessful in tracking it down.
After a hard reset, it works like it's supposed to, but as I continue to install software and use the device, it eventually stops working.
Can anyone give me a hint as to where I might be able to begin looking?
Thank you in advance!
Not a single reply. :-( Am I really the only person who has experienced this?
I've been fighting with this problem for literally months. I just recently went through several hard resets and restores, trying to find some specific application or condition that causes the problem. It started happening again a couple of days ago, and I'm absolutely sure that this time I had not installed any new applications. The only change from the time that reminders were working properly to the time that they stopped working was that I had downloaded some applications data (email, etc.).
If anybody has any ideas at all, I will be forever indebted.
Thanks,
Keith
I have the same problem, I think. I will go into my settings and tell it to give me pop ups for new SMS, MMS, notifications/reminders, and then they stop happening and I go back into settings and have to recheck the boxes. I'm not sure what's causing them to quit though. I just flashed a cooked ROM to my phone, but I don't like it so I'm trying to find something new. The problem was on the factory ROM that came with my phone.
I have the same issue, im using the ROMeOS 6.5 ROM and i dont get notification too...
gonna try and fiddle around the advanced config app
