Phone hangs after closing Opera - Touch HD General

Since a few weeks I have the following problem. Most of the time when I'm surfing on the internet and I close the browser, my phone hangs. I can 'press' the buttons below and it will vibrate. Also the powerbutton works, but the screen itself is totally locked and won't react to any touches.
Does anyone knows what the problem could be?
I'm using the standard NL ROM.
Thnx in advance.

I tried the search function in here, but couldn't find the problem. Is there an solution posted already?

if you installed the ati driver for VR hologram, remove it and you will get your problem fixed.
it is written somewhere here

I started a thread about this issue (here).
And no, removing the 3D driver didn't solve anything.

did you delete htcapi.dll?
uninstaling ati driver + deleting htcapi.dll solved the freezing problem for me

Hi,
Just want to ask why the time and date disappear on the screen during the time out period? Is this a bug or a feature for less battery power consumption?

it looks like the time and date only show in active status.
is the QVGA version has the same problem?
I think this is for QVGA resolution
Hi,
I think this homescreen is for 240x320 resolution because I just realized that I can not read the whole content of my Appointments. Hope correct version will be posted soon.
Also I am now having problems in uninstalling this from my phone. I tried using Settings in phone and also Add/Remove Program in ActiveSync but still no success. Can someone point me to the right direction?

if you want to unistall it,i think you might change the theme to another one,then unistall it.
i never tried to unistall it yet,just try
Yeah. Since I can not uninstall it, I think I better enjoy it.
I just hope a fix for the disappearing Time and Date will be posted soon on your forum site. Please keep us posted here in xda-dev for updates since the site is in chinese ok? Thanks a lot

I dont think its a bug, its a feature, the way it reappears does it in a "fade" fashion, anyway the time appears as fast as I press a key so no biggie there for me. This is originally for QVGA, but was resized for QQVGA (thx for the modifier!), unfortunately some elements were not properly converted like incoming mail and SMS preview going out of the box(or panel?), other than that its excellent, especially the WMP plugin showing an album art in the homescreen while playing. Cool!
Perfect!!
Now your talking. I have reflashed my phone since I can not uninstall the previous version. This is more flawless.
1. The items does not overlap the Glass selection thing especially in the Appointment tab.
2. I finally can see the Right arrow in the Glass selection thing which was missing on the first version.
3. The time and date still disappears from time to time. Can anyone verify that?
Conclusion: Still perfect.

How to uninstall previous version???

Please help. I have already reflashed many times before just to uninstall and install the newer version and I am already tired of it.

Still see timeout
Is it just me....I installed the CHome_2 and I still see the timeout problem.
Which is the better version?
Timeout problem
Regarding my post above....I only get the timeout problem, where the time display disappears, when the display timeout occurs when the phone is locked!
Hope this helps fix it once and for all if it is a bug.

[REQ]Skin for VITO SMS-Chat OR fix the Problem...

Hi Guys!
I've tried VITO SMS-Chat and i think its the best sms-software out there! The program is working fine, BUT when i go to landscape mode i cannot see anymore what iam typing!! the cursor is moving, but i cant see the letters...in portrait mode, everthing is working fine! but i have a htc kaiser and i'll use the hardware keyboard...
maybe this is a skin-problem??? if so, a new one will fix the problem??
maybe an other idea??
please help!
greetz
infernalshade
I have the same problem
Idk what to say bout this......I don't have this problem when I'm in landscape. And I'm using the HTC Touch which uses a SIP so no hardware kb for me
Do you find the scrolling really lumpy and jerky in this app also?
I love it but that drives me mad! Fun-Contact is the same
Try disable Clear-Type Settings->Screen->ClearType
I read somewhere that clear type messes with SMS-Chat sometimes
yes the problem is that version 1.1 has a problem with clear type and even if you do disable it . it will still not show the letters the only way to fix this is to download the latest version that VITO released 1.5 i believe. its an update and if u have bought the program legally you just need to download the exe file connect phone to computer through AS and run the exe file on your computer. the program automatically registers that u have the program activated on full version and keeps it that way.
with my phone (Wizard) and VITO SMS-Chat 1.16(not sure on the number, but the latest one...), in landscape mode using my hardware keyboard the SIP/softkey bottom bar shows up when i start typing and covers up the words im typing.
but it stops and fixes itself when i pause my typing for a bit. minor issue im sure, wonder if its related to your problem?
vito sms chat V1.16
i think this newer version of sms chat will solve your problem.
Attach cracked programs in a NON WAREZ forum again and kiss your booty BYE BYE!!
Have a great night!!

Opera crash

Hi all,
each time I shut down Opera, it crashes, and I have a screen explaining me Opera crach ......
I've the stock release.
This issue appeared one day but I don't know when, maybe a problem with an installed application ????
Any idea to fix it ?
Kaz
Did you install Flashlite 3.1 ? That program makes opera slow and unstable.
thx for your answer,
no flashlite on my phone .......
Kaz
I have the same thing, I have installed quite a few things lately though.
Guess the only option is to hard reset and start over.
i have the same prob. installed latest beta last night still has the same prob. means i cant change the settings and save them, so cant impliment that iplayer fix as a result.
I think I solved the problem. In my case it appeared after I played with build 2808. Opera started crashing on exit and even hanging the device. It turned out that while I didn't have Flash installed, opera.ini still pointed to a non-existing plugin folder, \Windows\Opera9\plugins. So I simply went to opera:config, found the path setting, reset it to default (blank), and the problem is gone!
No, today it started crashing on exit again for no apparent reason, and what's worse, it hangs the device completely!
Does anybody have stock unmodified files so I can try to replace what I have in \Windows\Opera9?
when you say crash, is this when you get the thing asking you to send an error report to m$? if so i get the same thing. i'm unsure whats causing it and dont want to hard reset. the way i olook at it currently is it doesnt seem to crash when i actually use opera so i try and ignore it
Found it!
I had installed that Seismo thing that needs HTCAPI.DLL in the windows folder.
When I removed that, no more Opera crash (yes the one where it asks to send a report to MS)
And I did a hard reset for that!

In my case it was sometimes hanging the whole device. I had to reset it using the button in the battery compartment.
I solved the problem finally (at least it's been working for a whole day without any crashing) by uninstalling .Net CF 3.5 and Gyrator 2

Confirmed. I did it as well. I tried it before removing and got the crash. i removed it, loaded opera, exited it and no crash.
I installed that .dll because VR Hologram needed it.

Same here. Although the strange thing is why it's not crashing with this dll in my \Windows folder.
Maybe it's a trilateral conflict between Opera, .NET CF 3.5 and the dll, and removing one of the three solves the issue?

That sounds plausible, I still have .NET CF3.5 without the DLL and have not had Opera crashing since removing HTCAPI.DLL, I need .NET for more than that DLL.

I confirm. Removal of the htcapi.dll file also solved my opera crash problem.
HTCAPI.DLL versions
Hi All,
I had the same problem with Opera crashing the phone on exit.
today I found that I have 2 htcapi.dll on my desktop that it seems I have downloaded. I was about to delete one of them when I realized that they have different sizes. one around 7KB and the other one around 4 KB.
so I checked the one installed on my HD and it was the 7KB so I replaced it with the smaller one, and so far no crash anymore.
I hope this will help you guys.
I am attaching the file for you to try.
Regards
Bassem
Hey all. I am still having this problem even after deleting the above .dll. Basically when I go to exit opera, the whole phone locks up and I have to hard reset or remove the battery and reset the phone that way. Any suggestions as to what could be going on? It only started this 3 days ago, and I ahven't installed any new apps/programs in the past week.
Edit, solution found in other thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=468861

Recalibrating touchscreen on restart

Everytime i restart my phone, it starts the calibrating of the thouchscreen. Anyone else got this problem? Maybe there is a cab to fix it (i remember there was a similar issue on custom Prophet-ROMs).
thats a bug sometimes happens while making a hardreset.
just do another hardreset or search for the corrosponing key in the registry. dont know how its named though
I just installed all aplications on my new phone (no hardreset), so i would be glad if somebody can tell me the specifig regestry key.
I had have this bug a few resets before - i disabled the autostart of the calibration-tool with sktools. Any other autostart-manager should work too.
Can somebody suggest a free autostart-manager? Did a few searchs and found nothing.
Nobody got an alternative to sktools?
Nice idea...

Keyboard doesnt pop up in landscape

Hi,
has anyone else the same problem?
the keyboard doesnt pop up when clicking on a text box. not even the keyboard-sign appears in the lower bar, so typing is not possible. it is esp. annoying in opera because browsing is kind of senseless without a keyboard.
i'm using my touch hd exclusively in landscape mode. The autorotate program is flip it and im running duttys v3.
would like to know if more ppl have this problem

that was me posting in the dutty v3 thread but there werent many replies. only one or two encountered the same problems since a lot of the dutty users seem not use landscape mode.
apart from that i dont really know if this has to be discussed in the dutty development thread since it could also be a problem of winmo or flipit or anything else. my research brought me to the conclusion that winmo is responsible for showing an input device whenever a text box is marked.
also the dutty thread is too big already. i have to read 10 or more pages to see if someone answered to the question. too many ppl asking how to flash or how to make their cats flash devices
so, if anyone has the same problem pls post here with your config
thx

Sorry if these same obvious or if you have already tried/stated these. I'm just asking these questions to get a better understanding of your problem and to see if I can replicate/solve your issue
Have you had similar problem on any other roms?
Is it standard HTC keyboard you are using?
Have you tried using HDTweak Automatic display pop up?
Have you tried a hard reset and then testing keyboard before installation of apps, then adding each app one at a time to see if any of them are conflicting with it?

I don't think I've had this problem on a non-Dutty ROM, but I'm not sure about that.
I use Fingerkeyboard.
I haven't tried the tweak you mention - but I'm not sure it would change anything since the problem is NOT PERMANENT! Sometimes the keyboard does pop up, sometimes it doesn't. Seems to be pretty random...

SOrry for the late reply...
i dont think i had the same problem with standard rom (autorotate app was changescreen)
i tried standard htc and fingerkeyboard
no, i havent tried hdtweak since the duttyroms are already tweaked by duttythroy and i dont want to mess it up. what exactly does the function "automatic display pop up"?
i hard reset after flash and tested directly afterwards. same problem.
does anyone know if this problem is still in duttys 3.3?
thx
hdizzel
The problem is still there in v3.3,i have read every possible thread and did every possible search,i cannot find anything mentioned about this and i cannot find a solution. It is kinda lame to have to rotate the phone everytime i need to write smthing on opera,but meh i can live with this inconvenience, Dutty's Rom is worth it tbh.
Even so if anyone finds anything pls report back would be nice to solve this

Currently using V3.3 and I'm still not replicating your problem. If I use Opera or msm in landscape fingerkeyboard automatically pops up for me.
I've used HD Tweak with basically every rom I've flashed and had no problems with it. I'd go as far as saying it actually improves the phones experience and userability.
Try using it and see if it also helps you with your keyboard display
The funny thing is that i have HD Tweak installed(and auto pop enabled),and had it on every rom i used(well basically all of Dutty's Roms since 2.4),dont know what is going on.Maybe it is smth else on my phone,will try reflashing and using Fingerkeyboard only as the first app.Btw this only happens in opera for me.

ok, I finally see were your coming from as I am experiencing it as well. Not sure why this is though. I'll look into it and see if I can find a solution.
I never really use landscape to be honest, especially in Opera as loading time of pages is slower.
well i use landscape on opera mainly for forum browsing cause i can see more text!anyways awaiting on news about this,and i am gonna try some tweaking around myself.
Arrgh!!! Really annoying, Clownshoes figured it out before me!!! LOL. Trust you mate!!
Ok mate, it seems it does work, you have to hold down for 2 secs in input field, no more, no less and it should then pop up. You can thank Clownshoes for that one!
Let me know how you get on

Hmm,i might be doing something wrong,i press and hold in the input field for 2secs or so and nothing really happens,well if i press for more the opera menu pops up "select all" but other than that nothing.
Maybe it has something to do with keyboard settings like the popup timer or something similar,although my settings are on default. i'll keep trying though.
Thanks for trying to solve this

ok, which method are you using to rotate opera? Are you using FlipIt?
I've noticed if I set flipit to 0 and 270 degrees and then enter opera. The first time the keyboard will not pop up. But if I exit opera and then re-enter it works fine.
Have you tried a soft reset?
It seems to be very sensitive. Try using just the tip or nail of your finger in the text entry area for about a second.
It also helps if you double tap to zoom into the text entry box.
I've just tested it by doing it over and over again and using the tip of my finger seems to work every time.
this is very weird,i got it to pop but it is extremely sensitive,dunno what makes it behave like this.
Anyways thanks for the solution guys.
