So I always try to download large emails or file from PIE/Poutlook and the file starts downloading very fast, then nothing. It just stops downloading. Any ideas why ?
I have a fairly new duttys 6.1/ not the new one but the one before.
I've noticed this as well but have not found a fix for it. Whenever i try to download a ROM or Radio from here it stops downloading part way through.
I'd love to see if anybody has any experience with this problem.
I'm not saying that it happens from this site. For instance. I use my tilt to download that warcraft port, it stops at about 1/4 way in. The first 1/4 goes fast though, after that it can sit for a day and go nowhere. This of course happens on all larger files, not just this particular one.
Yeah, thats the same. I mean when i click a link to go outside of XDA (i.e. roms etc) that it quits shortly into the download. It seems to have happened with dutty's newer ROMS b/c i used to be able to.
i have occasionally downloaded a rom or two using pie and i noticed this.........the download progress bar stops moving, but i think the download is still continuing, cause eventually it finished, and file extracted fine, with no problems
Well I've let some 900k files transfer for hours, how long did you have to wait?
It happens to me to with the first download PIE has to do. I stop the download and try it again. The second time it works without problems.
I've been having download issues using Newsbreak an RSS reader. I have a dozen or so podcasts I normally download and lately they get stuck, consistently stuck

are you on ATT? I have an old cingular branded simcard.. what about you? I am lucky i have a friend with a Tilt.. i have taken his att branded simcard and inserted it into my phone, tested some downloads they appears to be working fine and sure enough my card in his phone is producing the same results I had.. INCOMPLETE DOWNLOADS..
now either its my sim card, or something is screwy with my account. I am trying to scam ATT, i have a unlimited smartphone data plan from an old phone that I quietly moved to my pocketpc. I'm hoping it's the OLDER sim card that is affecting me.
post any info if you can.
say it aint so, say it aint so. Man I guess I need to get my new sim activated, but I'm a little worried they will try to change my plan if I call in.
Any Update?
Checking to see if there was any update on this topic? I'm having the same trouble and wondering if I should replace my old cingular SIM card with a newer ATT one?

I am having the same problem since upgraded to Dutty's jun 7th rom. I know it is different from yours. I thought I was just special in having this problem. I don't see how it is the sim card that is the problem. I have the newest at&t sim card and have the problem.
Only since installing this rom have I had any problems. But I am signed up for the 15.00 dollar media net though.
I never use PIE, but it happens all the time in Opera 9.5 built 1184(I think). I just assumed it was an Opera 9.5 issue as I upgraded to Dutty's rom and Opera 9.5 on the same day. Before that I was using Mobile Vista with Opera 8.65.
I have the same symptoms as you, I start a download and the first 1/4th is fast, then it just stops. I close Opera and start the transfer again and it works.

bumb, would like an answer
Well that was ages ago I did swap my SIM card and since then have switched roms 10 or more times.. and still the same problem
It's very strange tho, I can get email attachments just fine. But if I try to do a download of an .mp3 or .cab or pretty much anything, I get the same results as you posted below. It' gets a certain portion of the download then stops never to restart.
REALLY SUCKS!

Would like to get this resolved..
Same problem, but it also happens when I'm tethering to a PC (Vista). It's really apparent in youtube - it downloads 5-10 seconds ahead really fast, then just stops and as soon as player reaches that point, it just keeps trying to load movie further, and can't. If I manually move the slider forward, it will download 5-10 seconds, then stop again. It's 100% consistent.
Not sure if I should try switching back to Dutty's April rom (6.0) from my current 6.1
I to am having the same problem with my tilt. I cannot seem to D/L files. Any help with this would be great.
I've noticed recently the same thing, and I suspect it's Cingular. Anyone not using Cingular in this thread seeing it?
I also noticed that EDGE was really slow last week but that seems to have gone away.
If I switch to WiFi, no problems. And given the number of people mentioning this, I seriously doubt it's hardware/rom/etc.. I'm using the AT&T stock rom and radio.
my experience
well this is my experience, mind you I have att with the cheap medianet settings too. When my file downloading would stop id X(close) the pie window and you restart it it asks if you want to resume downloading. though this works, as time went on it seemed that the problem got worse. (id be resetting sometimes 10 times on a 4mb file) And then I wanted to download some larger files 300mb+ and didnt want to deal with this problem i noticed settings or different roms didnt help. So I moved my storage card to the computer and formatted my card 32k clusters with memmaid. now it seemed that i did have a corrupt file because this one music track would not erase easily i needed some program to get rid of it. after the card was formatted I put all my files back on it and I have not had a problem since. hope this helps some of you. also whenever you download something go to start\system\memory\storage card and you can easily see how much has transferred and how fast its transferring.
Hi all,
I've searched and searched for this but can't find an answer.
YouTube used to work by opening up TCPMP, but it now it ties to run using Media Player (which obviously doesn't work)
I've checked the file associations in TCPMP and they are set-up as 'Flash Video' and 'MMS Protocol', which I think should work, but I still get the videos running with MP.
Can anyone help with this?
Thanks guys,
Ratzz
EDIT: Could this be because I'm now using Opera???

yes.......
oh... bugger!
My IE no longer works, thats why I use Opera.
Does anyone know of a bug with IE that wont connect - all i get are blank pages...
was having these same exact issues i think last week, youtube (which i barely bother with) now tries to open in MP no matter what i do, i think its the new mobile page, i did load up the regular youtube page as an experiment because i have been messing with tmpg as you stated you did too. But youtube just sucks w/ this phone, more then half the videos have never played for me so i quickly grew frustrated and closed the page.
Not sure what the deal is with this.. but yes ive experienced the same ****.
Also for about 2 days last week internet explorer was not working for me.
The gps battery drain is getting old, the friggin car charger they sell you will barely run the thing w/ one app open if your battery is dead, nevermind charge it. I drove all the way to work *(40mins at least) this morning and had nothing running my battery charged one little tiny line farther then it was.
Im sure someone has noticed this, its a pain in the ass for the crappy service but if you reset your phone your mobitv trial will be good again.
I bought the service and am not impressed.

Open IE go to Menu>view. Make sure "Desktop" and "Show Pictures" are unchecked it. Turn your phone off (Do not soft reset it) turn it back on.
Then open IE go to Menu>view ; and check "Desktop and Show Pictures".
That is all. You'll have IE working again.
Same problem happened to my couple times. This way really worked for me.
Good luck.
For what it's worth, I'm using opera 8.65 and using that to view gopckt.com. TCPMP with the .flv plugin (mms protocol and flash video checks) is working fine. Youtube clips download and save perfectly well on my 8gb micro sd card.
I installed Opera on my Tilt, version 8.65, and it worked fine for a day. Now when I start it up, it loads in and then quits after 5 to 10 seconds. I have removed and reinstalled the program several times, and still get the same odd behavior. I decided to wipe my phone with a hard reset, and Opera ran fine for about a day and then, the same problem started all over again. Opera Mini works fine, as does Internet explorer.
Anyone have a clue what could be causing this? It would seem to be a software conflict, but perhaps its just Opera... Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Try to find out if this happens after you have run and closed a particular program that you might have installed.
With my old Hermes (WM5) whenever I ran softmaker's office and closed then after this Opera mobile would refuse to run. However when I shfted to TyTn II with WM6 and a larger RAM this problem is over. Maybe just maybe you can find a similar pattern with another program.
Hi all,
I've just got my grubby hands on one of our staff members Diamond (they were having mail problems) and found the UI (of the phone generally, not just the TouchFlo) rather sluggish.
The TouchFlo part doesn't seem very smooth at times, and the general browsing of the phone such as Programs etc is sometimes slow to respond.
Are the Diamond's usually like this? I was thinking of getting one as my next phone (couldnt belive the size of the Diamond compared to my TYTN-II, I just love the look of the Diamond ). I remember my XDA II was kinda slow, but it was due to the programs etc that O2 pre-load onto it.
I know this particular phone is pretty much straigh out the box as it comes ... if it were my phone I would of customised the hell out of it already
i am thinking about buying a Kaiser from a friend and i really like the phone but the wifi is painfully slow is this a common problem with these phones when put aside a iphone you can watch a 3 min video clip on the iphone before the kaiser has even loaded youtube and ebay is just not worth waiting for.
i just really want to know if its faulty or am i to expect this if i buy another ?
please help
thanks tris

The iPhone is an entertainment device that makes phone calls. It is designed for music, videos and games. So of course it does all those extremely well. The Kaiser is an all around phone, that is a compromise between entertainment and productivity. My Tilt does not play games and video extremely well, but my iPhone does not run Opera, Office or roms customized to my specific needs.
Chose what is the most important to you, and buy a phone that suits those needs.
it just seems unusable on wifi .i know what you mean with the iphone i loved my n85 because i could use it in bed lol but i feel i could fall asleep waiting for google with this
I use wifi home network & work network with my Kaiser wifi & it seems very usable to me.
I often check mail, check eBay,check EX rates & XDA forum ect if the laptop or desktop is not booted up.
Not the fastest but certainly usable & I find Opera 9.5 very good (many ****e builds so need to test a few)
do you find IE is slow ? i really want to keep the phone "i like it" maybe hard reset or updated rom is what i need
when i change a page it says at the bottom 8kb then give it a minute 10kb then pauses time passes and the bar will fill up and 14kb . i don't have the fastest bb (512KBS) but i drove to a friends house that has 8mb to test and its just the same
I doubt the device is faulty. like you say, a ROM & Radio change plus using Opera browser could see improvements. A fresh flash & being choosy with installed apps normally makes drastic improvements.
IE is slow, have not used it for over a year so can't remember how bad it was.
