Anyone have this problem? I'm using the 8525 and haven't installed anything recently that I can remember or would cause PIE to just close. It was random for a while but it's gotten worse and pretty much happens all the time now.
If anyone has any ideas as to why, I'd love to hear them!
TIA!
I had the same problem but it went away when I cleared PIE cache and cookies. Hope it works for you too.
Ahhh, thanks. I had been clearing the temp internet files and history but totally forgot about the cookies. I think that did the trick. It's behaving more nicely now.
Thanks!
In my when I applied the hack to store temporary internet files to the storage card it started to behave like this i.e closing down by itself but all became ok after I removed the hack

Hmmm... thanks, that's something to keep in mind. I did this hack. If it starts back up, I'll have to remove the hack.
Okay, PIE is still crashing so I want to reverse the "cache, etc on storage card" hack, but I don't remember the original settings.
Is it just \Windows\Cache, \Windows\Cookies\, and \Windows\Temp Internet Files?
TIA!
Well in my case IE seems to be saving the cache files at:
\windows\profiles\guest\content.IE5\

Actually its on every page im on. I doesn't go away :/
Hmm, odd one. Just had a play with both tweak progs, and a scan through the registry but can't see anything obvious. Sorry.
Go to task manger and kill the browser. Then it works fine.
i have tried to kill it in taskma but its still there...it seems that it dont want to go away.

It's always done this for me. As far as I was concerned, this is normal behaviour. Anyway, it doesn't actually stop anything working. Can't you just ignore it? It's only there when you're typing in a URL, so what's the big deal?
is there any chance of disabling PIE as a default browser
ive tried to change it in sktools but doesnt allow me

no problem, just download the final version of opera mobile 10 (found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5892646&postcount=1638 ) then install. right after the installation is complete a window will pop up asking if you want to set opera as your default browser, then just click yes.
hi guys,
just installed Opera 10 and it is much much better then IE. love the interface and the ease of use.
Just one quick question, is there a way to remove IE from the phone altogether? cause as you know, X2 is not really great on available memory.
i updated and of course, all internet browsers close as soon as a start using them. They open, let me go to a website or two, then close. I was super eager to test the full flash but i can barely get to the websites themselves without the browser closing suddenly. I updated the firmware, profile, prl, and everything. the phone was never rooted.
I'm about to do a hard reset but I figured i should check what you guys had to say first.

Hard reset is the only thing that has helped so far. Just do it, it will make the system work better anyway.
Will a hard reset effect firmware/froyo.
I had the same issues with the camera. Reset all folders permission to read and write.
sorry for my ignorance but how I can do a hard reset? and it will fix the problem?
No, a hard reset basically wipes your data and cache(?) partitions. All apps and data are deleted. This will return you to just your normal firmware, without any customizations. Then you can reinstall apps. I think that's the main problem, some apps aren't dealing with the upgrade too well, and as a result, you get some weird errors. It won't change any versions of your software though.
I'm having the same problem.. If we move the apps to the SD card we shouldn't have to reinstall them, correct? And if we re-install apps, does the settings/info saved on them return or would we have to change those as well? I'm getting ready to do a hard reset too and I spent alot of time with these apps and I was worried about losing info/settings..
Also, I'm using Launcher Pro, will it revert back to Sense after the Hard Reset?

Search "how to hard reset the HTC EVO". It can either be done through the settings menu or you can physically do it using the power and volume rocker.
My dad was having similar issues. And said that going into settings while in the browser and changing enable plugins from "always on" to "on demand" helps
Also the person using launcher pro go into the launcher pro settings or preferabces and all the way on the bottom you can backup your settings/homescreen.

It will return back to sense. It will be like a brand new phone. Before you hard reset backup your launcher pro settings and homescreen. Hard reset if my internet fix didn't work. Reinstall all apps and launcherpro and then restore launcher pro settings and homescreens.
Is hard reset the only way to fix this?
No you can remove Adobe flash and reinstall it.. worked flawless for myself.
James
I hate to ask this sounding like a noob, but I'm at work and can't do much research, but what would be the best way to backup all those files? Just with the USB drive or is there a backup app I can download, etc.
Nevermind, I figured out how to backup Launcher Pro, but how about apps still?

and how does one obtain Flash 10.1? It's not in the market

It should still be in the market, got it earlier for latest CM Nightly.
Yeah I don't see it either. I found Flash 10.1 beta on Appbrain, but it won't sync with my phone. I uninstalled and removed flash and my browser is still crashing.
Here is the APK. I had to uninstall it using titanium backup. was easier than going the ADB rm way
James
I had the same problem. Some are saying it's because of installing the half ass full flash version on 2.1 that came out a month ago.
I downloaded and reinstalled the apk and then it worked...for about 6 hours and then the browser starting crashing again.
The next time i uninstalled and then installed the flash 10.1 again, so far, so good.
When I get home I'm gonna try that and hope it works before I do a hard reset.
Nothing worked so I finally decided on the hard reset. I think one should do it anyway to get the best out of the update. Everything works fine now, glad to see that it remembers the apps I had already paid for. The whole thing seems to run smoother than ever, (I hated the baggy scrolling.) Southparkstudios works now, the entire video section of the new York times works now as well. Embedded YouTube videos work on Facebook they play without me having to leave the page/browser.
****ONE ISSUE***
Text fields act strange. I can't type status updates into the full Facebook site anymore, nothing happens when I tap the text field. That blows big time I hate using the Facebook apps I want the full site to work fully.
Similarly, I was never able to type into the text fields on the gmail full site. Now I can a little bit although Tue browser seems uber confused about whether it wants to deal with the text field or not. Any ideas why text fields (
Rich text fields) are such an issue?
I was hoping that yahoo games would work, especially yahoo pool but still no go.
So recently I've lost the ability to multitask, specifically in the way I could jump around from open app to open app and have them still be open as opposed to "restoring" their last state.
It's really annoying and feels alot like an iPhone. If I'm surfing a website or two and go to the text messaging program it's a black screen as if the program had just opened for the first time.
Then if I go back to my browser, all my tabs will "restore" back which is essentially like reloading them all from scratch whereas before I could jump back forth to between the programs and pick right back from where I was without waiting for some "restoring" nonsense.
Does anyone know how to fix this? I've tried different settings in autokiller but that didnt help either
Thanks in advance
So are you using a task killer? Try uninstalling it, soft reset, and try it.

I was going to say try a more lenient AutoKiller setting but if that's not cutting it, I don't know what would

I guess I could uninstall autokiller but I never used it until this problem started happening so idk what good it'd do. But I suppose it is worth a try!
Flashing worked, well I changed roms anyway but I'm sure reflashing would have worked too!
Now I get to enjoy Froyo
