I use PIE mainly to view the Avantgo downloaded items. However when I open PIE, and then select Avantgo it takes between 20-30 seconds to actually find the home page.
When I used to do this on my XDAI this was almost instantaneous.
Any ideas why this would be happening?
Thanks

Hi all,
I have noticed a few problems/issue, just wondering if anyone else has noticed them:
1. Poor streaming from youtube - it becomes very pixelated and I can hardly see or hear a thing.
2. When you have the security set on the phone (PIN) and the phone is locked, when you receive a call you cannot see who is calling you!! Even once I have typed in my PIN and unlocked the phone I still cannot see who is calling me!! Very annoying cos i love the PIN feature.
3. Phone lags heavily once I have sent a text message. I mean about 10 or 11 seconds it freezes and doesn't respond to any input.
4. How do you pan in and out (zoom in and out) using the GUI? I can do it with the volume rocker but in the guide it says to "to pan a page, touch and hold the screen, then move your finger" which doesn't do anything for me but scroll..
5. Activesync keeps appearing in my running programs. I haven't set it up and have not used activesync yet so i'm not sure why it keep appearing in my running programs - I have to stop it roughly 8 or 9 times a day! Not sure how to disable it.
6. Panels - anyone have any idea when we might see some new panels? I've looked at the Sony Ericsson "fun" site and tried a couple of those but just wondering if anyone has any info on when we might see some new ones?? and where??
7. The RAM. This doesn't seem as though its pushing that extra RAM that we were promised. It states that it's running 256mb RAM but i'm sure SE told the world that we would see 400mb RAM? Apparently the extra RAM is locked to the CPU (so i've read) but how can we be sure?? Anyone know more about this?
Can't think of anymore issues I got but they are the main ones. On the whole its a great phone, i love it.. I've been waiting for a very long time for this and its really lived up to expectations.
Thanks in advance for any replies.

Setup a fake server connection with any data in ActiveSync. Set it to manual update. After that, delete it again and it should stop appearing. Have done so on other WM phones, but haven't tried it on this one.
Thanks for the replies,
I tried the Activesync thing and i'll let you know how it goes.
Tried the double tap for the "pan" and it still didnt do anythin (tried it whilst using IE, Opera, and viewing images) Does the "pan" mean to zoom in or is it to scroll? I'm confused lol..
Anyone experience any of the other things?
double tap is for zoom and if you move your finger it moves the page
oh ok.. I have tried double clicking on nearly everything that I can zoom in on (IE, Opera, images etc) but it doesn't seem to respond..
Is there a setting or anything that I need to select?
In Opera it should work without any problems. So if you double tap nothing at all happens? did you try it with the stylus?

Mine does this unless im in a 3G/H area then its perfect
Hi,
I got the zoom working with the double tap in opera..
My youtube always seems to be messed up even if im in 3G/H area
Activesync still seems to be playing up - it just appears in my running programs now n again and i have to stop it. ive even synced up to my pc and changed all settings to manual and tried to disable and other connections
Sorted number 2 and 3 by turning the phone off and taking out the battery and putting it back in and turning it on hehe

This is what I did to disable the auto ActiveSync, seems to work fine for me:
1. Open ActiveSync.
2. Hit 'Menu' --> 'Configure Sever'.
3. For Email Address, type "[email protected]" (or whatever you like) and uncheck the box.
4. 'Next', server address, type "[email protected]" (or whatever) the box underneath stays checked.
5. 'Next', User name, PW, and Domain: Type "Blah" for all of them and check the box.
6. 'Next', uncheck all the data it wants to Sync and hit 'Finish'.
7. Back in the ActiveSync home hit 'Menu' and 'Schedule', Make sure 'Sync during' is Manually for both options and uncheck 'Send/Recieve when I click'. Hit 'Ok'.
After that I didn't have any issues with ActiveSync connecting on it's own and Task manager stays unburdened.
for youtube try the standalone player and panel it works better.
Hint: after sending sms hit OK on the keypad or the screen.
It freezes when you hit "dismiss".
"Pan" maybe means enabling smooth scrolling? It works everywhere: contacts, menus, email.....
Aha, the RAM: X1 has 256MB for user,
PLUS 128MB for graphics.
Total: 384MB.
Is there a way to make the back button work in Opera the same way that it works in EVERY other place on the OS?
It bugs me that I can't simply switch from Opera to the last tab I had open. If I'm listening to music, for example, I might have Opera open in the background. If I then use the quickmenu to switch to Opera I have to use the home button to go to the home page, and then scroll back to the music tab. I just want to press back. It works for every other app.
Is there a way to "switch it off" in opera?
You could install the new Opera Mobile 10 beta, that doesn't yet use the Back button as back in the browser

Yeah, thanks for that, but pinch-to-zoom doesn't work in Opera 10. If you enable it with zooomer (or registry hacking) then it just does the system style zoom, which is just ugly compared to something that's actually developed to use pinch-to-zoom.
I did try Opera 10, and really liked it, but it felt like a step backwards at the same time, so it's gone and won't be back (unless it gets an upgrade to include zooming, as per the earlier version.)
Yeah, the zooming is problematic. I'm trying not to let it deter me, it seems much speedier and has some nice features otherwise
That behaviour is hardcoded I believe.
A slightly faster way than what you're curently doing though is to either disable full screen/tap the menu button each time, and then just hit the X in the top corner. That still works as expected.
Hi,
I've just updated to the new ROM and have found a few issues. One I think I've already seen on here where when you tap on an email it does not respond but instead you have to go to the inbox manually.
The other problem is with Skyfire 1.5. Since the update I'm having issues with certain sites such as BBC iPlayer and TVCatchup.com both telling me that I'm not in the UK.
These sites worked perfectly before the update.
Any ideas?
lock
Sometimes lock does not work - device wake up without lock.
Have to go to winmo settings and lock manually.
Yes me too!
Email doesn't open when tapped - inbox is only way
Also noticed that Volume up/down control hasn't been sorted - doesn't work
Screen lock sometimes activates, most of the time it is off now
SMS seems to be okay now
Weather Screen doesn't move as fluid as before
Still some work to do HTC
Yes I've just noticed my lock screen has stopped working and also when I go to reply to an SMS it takes 3 to 4 taps to get the screen to reply. It used to reply on the first tap!
Wish I had not done this update!

How do you rearrange the bookmarks in your favorites by dragging? I see that you can hit that little icon on the bottom middle of the page when viewing your favorites and arrange the icons alphabetically, by time viewed,etc., but I used to be able to rearrange them any way I wanted by dragging and dropping. Did that go away with the latest update?

I emailed Boat support the same question and no answer yet. But I found it on my own.
Go to the Home page that shows the speed dial bookmarks and long press on the very first icon (it didn't happen when I just long pressed on the page itself), and a Manage scareen appears. Click Manage and then you can drag things around.
My bigger problem with Boat, however, is that it uploaded automatically to a new version and now it CRASHES within a minute no matter which web site I am on.
I Uninstalled and reinstalled Boat but within a few minutes, the crashing reoccurred.
In face all of my browsers, except Chrome, seem to be crashing now.
I may have to do a Factory Reset but it's a hassle to reload all my bookmarks again.

That moves the speed dial icons around but I am talking about the bookmarks. That doesn't seem to work for the bookmarks.
Bummer about the crashes. Boat works OK for me except the loss of ability to move my bookmarks around.
Hi All
I've just (stupidly?) upgraded the firmware on my Galaxy Note 3 to the new 4.4.2. I use the built-in web browser and have discovered that despite being able to have a number of windows open simultaneously (I currently have nine according to the tab in the top right corner), I'm only able to preview a maximum of four and can no longer scroll through all the open pages and tap on the one I want to access. If I close a page, one that I already have open pops up at the bottom, and if I open a new page, the oldest one gets bumped from the list but seems to still be open.
I've been through the settings available and can't seem to find any options to change this. Has anyone experienced this and knows how to fix it? Otherwise I'm open to any suggestions
Thank you!
