Last night I got a popup saying that my storage memory was low. it was at .05mb. I thought this was a bit low, but I went and deleted some stuff and got it up to 5.5mb. I then actually watched the memory count down to .01. I dont know if this is a virus or what. I tried to use sprite but it didnt work, also there is an icon was added to my HTC launch page, looks like a piece of paper witha windows symbol.
i have HTC Home, touch cube, kaiser tweak, voice command, garmin xt, just the basics. Please help
try clearing the browser's cache. the same thing happened on my old ppc even though I know I didn't have much installed, but clearing the cache fixed it.
I dont think it was the cache that was the problem but i could be wrong, i kept deleting stuff and nothingi did worked. Also when i hooked it up to sync it just kept cycling through the sync.
Needless to say i just did the hard/doft reset back the the beginining. Now I have to decide whether or not to reinstall all the programs or flash the rom
Are you using a cooked or stock ROM? A lot of cooked ROMs will contain fixed-size page pools, and while they are great for performance, they tend to have memory leaks.
i am using a the stock rom
None of the programs you listed are known for causing memory leaks, so I would reload all of them as usual, and see if the problem returns.
It may have just been some registry corruption causing it.
Well Windows is know to cause Memory issues.
Best thing I can recommend is a Hard Reset and Restore all your programs.

I see you're using Garmin XT, now i don't use that program, but does it download maps? I know that most mapping programs can chew through memory like you wouldn't believe. I use all the other programs and have never run out of memory before...of course truth be told, i've never left a rom on for very long either...

hey guys, i have an unlocked tilt, flashed with the htc rom, and for some reason it randomly locks up.. i especially notice it with PIE, but also with other programs. i usually have to wait 5-6 seconds, and then it works again. the weird thing is that from what i remember when windows mobile freezes up, and you click a bunch of different buttons, as soon as it un-freezes, all those buttons are pushed, however in this case, no matter what i press, when it un-freezes, it just stays where it is.. im beginning to wonder if i just have a defective screen or something, but i dont remember this happening with the tilt rom tho... any help? thanks

I have the exact same problems...
same here, did it when i had the att rom on it also.
I *had* the same problem. I did a Clear Storage, and everything is fine now. I sware my problems started after I loaded the HTC Home plug-in. After I did the clear storage, my problems went away.
I'm running the Tilt on the Cingular ROM at this time for what it's worth.
I didn't run the HTC ROM long enough to see if it did it also.
Clear Storage
What does clear storage really do?

Basically resets it back to how it was when you first turned it on...no contacts, no apps (other than what it shipped with), etc. Basically a factory reset.
If you used kaiser tweak to set your ie temp files to storage card, this will make your kaiser freeze. set back to default.
My problems happend with the HTC rom, and are still happening (although the freeze time is shorter) with the Helmi ROM. I didn't have the ATT rom on long enough to notice it.
Are any of you guys using the Shogun threaded SMS app?
Threaded app works great. Its most likely that you tried to set your Pocket IE storage cache to your storage card. this is a known issue. I believe there's a fix around, but without that fix, you can't put your IE cache on the Storage Card. Set it back to your main memory and you should be OK.

Thats not likely, seeing as how I've *never* done that... ever. And the problem happens outside of IE also.

Are you using the HTC home screen? I'm wondering if that may be a culprit in more than one issue I'm seeing...
Are you using blackberry connect? I was using version 4.0.0.90 then switched to 4.0.0.84 and my random freezing went away.
HTC home screen = always
Blackberry connect = never
Every rom I used with my 8525 had the HTC home screen, never had freezing issues this bad. Although I do remember having some...
OK, did you use the official HTC ROM? Or one of the cooked variants?
I have witnessed this problem on ATT ROM, HTC ROM, and a cooked ROM. I wonder what is causing this.

All of the above.
Same here with Helmi's Big Storage Clean Rom.
My ATT Rom with schen's HTC homescreen plug-in freezes too, although I think it did before I put it on. It won't accept screen taps for maybe 10 seconds or so, then resumes running fine.
I just performed a hard reset and am starting from scratch. My problems are directly related to PIE and large websites. I did that webview.dll hack thatI just did it to try it out, but I think that is when my major issues started happening. I'll see how things go now with the stock AT&T Rom without customization.
I've been noticing the same behavior, but I noticed it when I was running the stock AT&T ROM, so I'm not 100% positive it's related to HTC Home.
At first I thought it was just really crappy screen recognition, but I've been noticing it with the hard buttons as well, so I don't think it's related to the screen.
Hey Guys. My AT&T Tilt phone has become insanely slow over time and when I go to text message people, when im using the keyboard, half the time letters will not register so I will have to wait for it to get up to speed and very slowly type out letter by letter. Also, a lot of the times I will have to press the key multiple times just to get it to be recognized. I was wondering if I flash the phone with a ROM, will it fix this problem?
Usually this problem can be attributed to not having enough free memory on it. try flashing a nother rom and I'll bet that will solve your problem or just clean out your phone.
i took my att rom off, and typing has become so much easier for me..
I use the hyperdragon rom now,
but it is true, u shouldnt try typing a text message when using heavy programs on any rom. it just drains out all the ram that u need.
I'm having the same problem. I have a lot of things installed, but 90% of it is on the card. I have 96MB free on the device. Nothing but ActiveSync is actually running.
Hmmmmm i know ive read many places that more than likely the slowness in typing comes from T9. Search for "Disable T9"....... people have made cabs to bake it easy.
OK. I disabled the "suggest words" option in the settings. I'll see if that helps.
Maybe you guys need to read where to install softwares on pocket pc and also how to backup your pocket pc.
By installing in appropriate locations, the device can be free from junk and even if junk accumulates, backing up pocket pc helps in future.
Regards,
Carty..
Thank you Carty!
I found out why my tilt was laggy! its cuz i installed everything on storage card! even if it was supposed to be installed on the device (aka system files and related system processes)
turning off the word correction did help a little. it's still slow but nowhere near as bad.
try this it worked great for me

Hi guys, I have had my Xperia a few days now, it's a Vodafone that I hae flashed the Generic UK software to (without HardSPL) it seems to work ok but I am having a few problems. First of all, whether or not the phone will boot is hit and miss, it will get to the today screen and lock up as soon as the clock on the today screen loads. Hitting the reset switch under the cover will reboot it and it will generally boot fine, usually on every second boot.
Another problem I have is that Shell32.exe crashes a lot as does explorer.exe Shell32.exe seems to crash when installing and uninstalling applications, it does not always happen but it's happened a few times so far and is becoming irritating.
I am going to reinstall the firmware image and leave it a day or two without installing any apps to see if the problem is resolved. If anyone has any posible ideas I would appreciate it. Thanks.
Edit: I have renamed thread to remove the reference to boot problem with memory card inserted because after having removed the memory card the problem still persists so I gues it's unrelated.
Shell32.exe error
I also am having issue with shell32.exe crashing, the problem is repeatable everytime I go into the today screen options, as soon as I exit, regardles of which panel I went in from, shell32,exe crashes and I have to reboot the phone. Sometimes the only way to do so is to remove the battery. Any changes that I have made in the today screen do show up after the reboot. This is really annoying me now as shell32.exe is an important system process. Any thoughts, or shall I just hard reset.
R2AA
I'd make sure you're updated to the GENERIC UK R2AA ROM, if you're already on it, get a new copy of it from here, reformat your mem card and flash the phone again.
I seem to be OK now and not getting the shell32.exe crash anymore. Still having various other problems with it stopping responding (barely anything installed, and nothing really running) but not much more I can do, just learning to deal with it because i can't do with the stress of worrying about it. It's Windows, so expect it to suck.
i was on my R1A, had this problem, Hard reset it and the problem still exist...
Upgraded to the official R2AA10 and guess what? the problem is still there....
What is it that actually causing this problem? im planning on selling my X1 because this problem is so irritating....
Strange

Strangely, I stoppped having this problem a long time ago. I ran on R2A and R3A for a long time without any trouble now, I think it was due to a common program we were having installed because I use different programs than I used to and I havn't seen it happen since I last posted about having the problem.
Stick with a fresh install and see how it goes, install your apps slowly until it doesn't happen anymore.
I can't remember the exact programs I used to use but I have a feeling it was related to homescreen plugins or some such.
Let me know what programs you use maybe we can find a common denominator.

Okay, so after hard reset, i always install my program again one by one...
Strangely, the error always happen the FIRST time i install any program that uses today plugin...at first i thought it was SPB Wireless, then after another hard reset i installed Beejive, and the same error occurs...
Now mine is a little bit stable, mainly because i dont touch the today setting anymore....i (forcefully, despite the error ) installed Pocket digital clock, SPB Pocket Plus, and SPB wireless....
Its been fine for the last 2 days...without touching any of the today settings...
What is it that actually causing the problem? so strange....

Well, I never used SPB wireless when i had that problem, but i did use Beejive, Vito Sound Explorer (has a today plugin) HomeScreen++ and Wisbar Advance Desktop (saw a few crashes with this). Saw the problems a lot back then.
When I only ran Homescreen++ I never saw the problem.
I am running 6.5 now so i can't test it for you I'm afraid to find the exact problem, but I'd certainly keep hold of your Xperia because it's definately just caused by a 3rd party app/plugin.

the weird thing is, i ran all my program above for about 4 months on my R1A and no problem occurred....everything was good.
Then i tried to install SPB phone suite, but the installation stopped at 3/4 because the software wasnt signed or something like that (strange, i got it from SPB site), and it just left me some today plugin but withoun any name...it was blank....my today plugin order was in a mess too...i soft reset, it was okay....but i soft reset it again later that day and thats when the problem happened...
I found it strange that it still happens after hard reset and even after Rom change...especially to ANY program that uses today plugin....weird...
Try using R2A_10 or later, I never had any problems from then on, I'm running gtrabs R3A/6.5 atm, although it hasa bunch oof problemsof its own.

How did this got here?
Lmao, I have noo idea.
So, I really needed/wanted a program, like the locking slider for the iphone, for my phone. And eventually, I stumbled across S2U2, I didn't read about any big issues with it, and everyone loved it. So I installed it right away last night on my phone. My phone worked Lag FreeandFlawlesslybefore installing the app. After the installation of the latest VGA version of the app, it worked great and did everything I needed it to do, with hardly any noticeable lag on the phone or anything since installing it. Today, it still worked great, however, I accidentally did a soft reset on my phone, and when it booted back up .... I was getting MAJOR LAG. I tried to close every program and shut down S2U2, but that did absolutely nothing. The memory status in task manager said it was only at about 30-32%, as it normally is with no programs running in the background, but this time, the phone is lagging horrendously. It's so bad, I can't even access my texts messages readily, sometimes they take forever to load when opening one. I knew S2U2 had to be the problem, so I uninstalled it using the add/remove program option in the windows settings folder. After that, I did another soft reset. Great, the program is now gone, however, the same horrible lag is still there. Did the program edit a reg key or something? I'm almost certain the program is the root of this evil. Can someone please help me out? If no one can, I'll try to e-mail the developer, but he'll probably be browsing around on here anyway. Also, I'm sorry if this is not the right place for such a post, my apologies.
P.S- I'm running the latest Verizon Stock ROM, which was released fairly recently, and therefore, this phone is on the Verizon Network.
Thanks,
Chris
when i got my diamond, it was running a bit on the sluggish side since someone else had their stuff installed and regardless of how i uninstall the apps, it still had residual footprint.
So i did a clear storage figure that will get me going on a fresh rom and it did. had a few issues with gps and gps only until recently i tried to flash other roms and radios, certain apps started to act up like spb mobile shell 3.5; change sound profile did nothing, it was getting stuck on one.
No biggie, let me do a complete hard reset via vol down and center maneuver. OK, all cleared and removed "program file" folder in internal storage and any other junk in there... i proceeded to add back all the apps and now i find the gps to be working better and it's a lot faster; just wish i can uninstall TF3D, it's taking up space i would like to have. the status bar also now has the bluetooth icon up there whenever bt is on; it wasn't like that before.
??????
Not sure what's going on here but if i hard reset again.... what will be the outcome? anyone else notice each hard reset, things get a little different? or am i just smoking too much crack (again.. lol)?
