Help - I can't view all Images on the internet - Touch HD General

I've been trawling this site but can't find a thread anywehere. I love the phone but when using Opera it only lets me view some images on the web and not all they jsut come up as a blank box.
I've tried to change the settings with no luck, it's getting really annoying now and messing up facebook etc.
Cheers
Ziggy

I have the same problem and it only happened a few weeks after i got the phone.
Only a few images load and its different ones each time.
It keeps crashing and losing bookmarks, and dangerously my spb wireless monitor gets reset also!
I read another thread with a similar issue but the op resorted to another rom, which i'd rather not do.
Have i got too much going on in the phone's mem perhaps?

Uh-Oh!
Just us then.

Pocket IE does not like to stay open in the background

I have been running 4.00.11 for quite sometime now the 2 main problems I have with this version is
1) If I'm using PIE & task switch or go to today or any other applications, when I try to come back to PIE it's been closed. I then have to re-open PIE & it loads my default page not where I was. It seems very tempermental in this version closing down whenever it is in the background, but not all the time. Very strange. Since I am using data each web page load this seems like a error that would benefit the service provider. :roll: Odd since I never had this problem in earlier versions (keep in mind all these versions are on the same build) Hmmmm?
2) If I reg hack to put my cookies, history, & temp internet files on SD & I get disconnected from the network it will, from that point forward start using main memory again. If I delete these files from main memory it then starts using SD card again which tells me the reg hack was never actually changed back to what it was before my edit. How strange is that? For some reason it just starts using RAM even though the registry is set to tell it to use SD. Go figure? Again not ever occurring in previous versions.
Has anyone else experienced this? Just curious.
I still think Ozone version was still the most stable minus the Alarms issue which still plagues many of the non-phone edition 2003 devices.
It would be nice to see a ROM version based on Ozone minus the alarms issue & the 2 battery icons w/the new version of WinModem coming from O2 included in the new O2-XDA2. I think this would be an ideal ROM. Just a blind item suggestion... :wink: and of course whatever other little programs can be fit 8)
Try freeing up more ram.
I find if I multitask too many the os will start closing them especially PIE and EzWap when you have
web pages open.
Oh yah cache for PIE dont work too well either it always reload from the net when I go back to previous pages.This is true for the deaktop IE so I dont know what the cache is suppose to do.
For EzWap it does reload from cache but maybe because I am usually surfing Wap pages.
Oh sorry I did not notice your saying that you are alright with earlier versions.
All I can say is its a mystery
Maybe we should start a poll to see how many successful wm2k3 upgraders.

T-Mobile Wing, Text Message Locking Up

I have a Wing and about two weeks ago, I put my first calendar event in it and since, it has been acting up. I deleted the calendar event and it worked ok. So last week I put another event in there I needed and now it runs a LOT slower and locks up when I try to text message. Once I slide it to use the keyboard, sometimes I can put in who I'm sending it to but once I get to the message, locks up. I can't close the program or continue typing. I close the slider and it stays in landscape mode. Every other program on here works well but sometimes slow. After lurking on here, i thought it was a memory issue, program or storage. I've done a couple things to move stuff to the memory card so it shouldn't be memory. I have plenty of space on there and nothing helps. I have an overclock program on here and run it at 228 instead of 186 but nothing changes. I also downloaded MemMaid and have played around with it trying to help but no. Anyone have an idea what could be wrong? Is there a way to reload just the text program to work right again? I don't want to do a hard reset because I have almost 200 contact #'s and I really don't want to lose all those or have to write them down and retype them all in. Thoughts? I know I'm not the only one and after searching/lurking on here for a few days, i'm not finding the help needed. Thanks!!!
forgot to state the facts.
Storage memory 27.56mb free, program memory 16.51mb free. I did delete the MyFavs program which helped dramatically.
Are you using the stock Rom? If so have you tried changing your pagepool? My experience with using the stock rom was disappointment and eventually changed to a custom rom. But I do agree with you it does sound like a memory issue.
Also I would consider finding a Contacts backup program so when it all goes to crap you are safe. There are many options for backing up so I would recommend just using your favorite search engine. But sooner or later your wing will get so unresponsive you will want to reinstall and a backup is a nice option with that many contacts.
I am going to do a backup tomorrow for sure but I don't think it's a memory issue. If it was, how do people have wings working perfectly with 4-8mb and I'm consistantly 13-16? It has to be a software issue which means it can be fixed. Anyone else have this problem? I saw a few people on Yahoo Answers but no one stated a fix to the issue. Beuller?
Also forgot which it just did again is once in a blue moon when I go to do a screen lock, it gives me an all white screen then won't let me unlock it. I have to do a soft reset. Another piece to the puzzle that no one is figuring out. lol
Lately it's starting to do it when I even try to type using IE, say to log into a gmail account or to put in a URL. Somehow the keyboard is locking up the phone all together. If I get a call during a time when it's locked up, it ends up ringing but won't let me click answer or ignore. It seems like it's memory but at all times I have between 14-16 megs of program available with over 26 megs of storage. SOMEONE here has to have an idea, right?
Apparently I've stumped the developers here... time to find someone who can help me.
The stock T-mobile Wing rom sucks... it has memory leaks and it doesn't work very well. Very often, you try to open a program like the camera, and it will say "not enough memory to run" ... or texting will freeze up ..etc...
Best thing to do is install a 3rd party rom...
go here to find one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=349
I personally reccommend ITJE or ASERG roms... I've used both of their roms extensively and have found them to be the most professional, fast and stable.
Awesome man! I will look into them when I get home and will try them out on my Wing. I'll look into the rom you're running because I'm sure it's stable enough. My question is, do any of these roms or are there any plug ins that can let me use multiple schedules on the calendar? If I could have up to 4 or 5, that would be ideal! I use 4 different schedules for work and would like to have a personal one as well. You're my hero.
anyone think this is a stock Rom issue? It's now starting to lock up anytime I try to use the keyboard. No matter the program. Thoughts?

I still use the stock rom, of course, I haven't had any of the problems you do. It acted up when I first bought it, but I hard reset and followed the steps in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326655.
From what I've read, T-mobiles roms are highly inconsistent. (surprise, surprise...) Some work decent if you don't mind a soft reset every morning, and some are just rotten apples. Try the mods and a hard reset 1st, but it sounds like you need a new rom.
Huh?

Tmobile USA 1st day minor problems

So far, mostly a positive experience switching from my HTC Advantage. As expected, the capacitive thing will take a few days/weeks to adjust to, but I've found that a light touch does wonders.
Thanks to the xda-people & searching, I've found solutions to many problems I had (like tcpmp crashing till I got the correct cab). A do have a small list I'm looking for help on that I have not found a solution for.
(if I missed it in searching, sorry - please send me a link!)
- Automatic Phone profiles. I used to use SPB's Phone Suite, which isn't compatible with 6.5. I tried Phoneweaver last night and it worked very well - but is crashing all over the place today. Just sent them an email. Is anyone using an automatic volume adjuster with no problems?
- Speaking of crashing, getting the &*@%& battery lid off is a problem. Probably needs to work in a bit, but I can't do it without a mini-flat screwdrive, and I already put one scrach into the back of the case They just couldn't put it someone more accessible?
- Mentioned in another thread, but I can't seem to find any software that remaps any of the buttons (especially volume buttons). I've read that Voldpad & AEButtons work for other people, but nothing working here yet.
- My other big crashing problems seems centered around contacts. Adding them to my favorites is causing lock-ups about half the time, but when I reboot the changes took. Editing a contact (say adding a ring-tone) is also locking up the phone when I save/go back.
- Synching: probably related to contacts above. 1st synch works well. Afterwords, it is getting hung on contacts as well. If I delete the partnership is synch ok again the first time.
I think that's my big ones for now. I'm only 1 day in, and yesterday was pretty busy so I hope to have more time today to do some installs & play more.
Thanks for any help!!
Phil
PS - I didn't install any Freecell or Sudoku yet. I'm used to VGA. Anyone have a recommendation on ones that work very well with the HD2 (I didn't even google this yet, but thought I'd ask)

I hated the battery cover, until I found an easy way of lifting it up without tools.
use your right hand, and place your index finger to leverage the phone (face down) at the bottom of the phone near your buttons. (make sure you grip the back of the phone too just in case it tends to fly off)
use your left hand and have the thumb push up against the battery cover on the side with the indent in it. you should be able to lift your battery cover off without problems.
after 1-2 tries, it should be easier to lift off. I like the security knowing that it's not going to fall off, but it's really tight to get off at 1st.
Sounds similar to the video I saw on youtube. Time permitting, I plan on opening & closing the lid many times today (using screwdriver if needed) to loosen it up so I can take it off when needed.
----
In other news, I'm not using a screen-protector (yet) - need to read the thread on the protectors. I'm not too worried about scratches, but the fingerprint on the screen is worse then I thought it would be.
I'm carrying around a small microfiber now. Might have to find a small one in a sleeve or something to carry permanently. I have glasses, so I probably should have one handy anyway.
---
Next, a minor problem with Resco Pocket Player that I just read a solution to, but thought I'd post it for anyone else - you can't click on the screen to change settings in options. To get around it, bring up a keyboard with arrows & use those and enter keys instead.
--------
Finally - on the Sense Photo & Music tabs - is there an easy way I'm missing to specify and/or limit directories to look at? For now, I disabled both tabs in favor of Resco Photo Manager & Conduits Pocket Player. I did read about a hack to make Resco Photo work in sense, but haven't tried it yet.

Thats got to be one of the best typos' I've seen, I'd rather not shove my HD2 in someone though!
I'm currently reading on the Tmobile US forums about the problems with Messaging causing problems (although I've only seen it with Contacts so far). But I don't use email messaging much, just SMS (don't know if it's the same subsystem).
Anyway, going to try the suggestions of switching from HTC messaging to standing messaging (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556614) and see that is my contacts/synch problem. I wanted to post it in case any lurkers have a similar problem. Will try to post later if this helps.
yes sense messaging causes lots of freezes if you get lots of texts saved and having swype enabled agravates the problem.
ive had no issues anywhere else or with contacts

As for your last point: At least on the Photo tab, you can specify the Folder shown up: Open up HTC Album and go to the folder you want. Then hit Menu and select as Favorite. Then this folder will only be shown in Photo tab.
Just saw this: http://pocketnow.com/software-1/bug-hd2s-sense-may-freeze-with-contact-favorites
Sure enough, one of my favorites (ie, my wife) has a lot of notes & doesn't have the xml stuff. Will try the fix tomorrow.
auto speaker?
anyone else having their speaker turn on automatically during a phone call
That is one I'm not having, HectikDroid.
I did reply to another thread about calls that went straight to voice mail.
Still not connecting to weather serivce either (yet another thread with little replies).
Actually, most frustrating part is trying to find out if others are having similar problems or it's it me (either bad phone or accidental messed up setting or the like).
Glad to see pocketnow posting about the big contact problem I had.

Serious freezing issues

I have reflashed the phone about three times with the stock rom and now have moved to custom ones which seem to be working a little better, but I am honestly getting annoyed with how much this phone freezes while in the text window. I have to do a battery pull every time because none of the hard buttons respond either. I have seen many posts and was wondering if anyone has found a fix to this. I might, however, have a bad phone. I did not but it from T-mobile, so if I brought it in to them would they even be able to replace it or how do I go about doing that?

The SMS freezing issue is widespread in this phone, I honestly don't think you have a bad piece of hardware.
One of the solutions that seems to work most frequently is to keep the number of text messages retained in your phone down to an absolute minimum (like 50 or less) at all times. Clearing them out regularly (and from the deleted folder as well) seems to have eliminated the issue for a bunch of people. If it's critical for you to retain messages longer than that would allow, I'd suggest just backing your messages up with myphone or something similar that allows you to access them off the phone.
I know that's not an ideal solution, but it seems to work. That's the strategy I use all the time, and I've never once had the sms lagging or lockup issues that so many others report.
I've been deleting all my texts as soon as they get over 20 just to minimalize the problem, everything else will start lagging as well if I let this happen. Thanks though. I hope they get a fix for this because I love this phone.
I was haVing the same issues but not as bad as you...you can also try changing the messages too standard not threaded. you can do that by selecting all messages then menu then options...also try running titanium. go to settings/all settings then select windows default I trash mine like that for a while. but what seems to have fixed my problems was just un installing cookies home tab...I mentioned to sirphunkee that in a few days I would install cookies again to see if my problems came back.
I think this MIGHT help you id the problem.
See if removing the memory card helps.
My first unit seemed as bad as yours, if not worse.
Whenever I removed the memory card, it would run SUPER smooth, so I thought to myself, maybe a higher class sdhc would do the trick?
Nope.
There is just something defective about all the TMOUS HD2s...they just fail imho.

2 Gmail Problems

I have searched the forums and scanned the results and can't seem to find any posts on this, so I'm wondering if I'm the only one with these two issues with gmail:
1) Choppy images - when I'm looking at my emails, when I scroll in any direction, the images take a noticeable fraction of a second to 're-focus' (for lack of a better word). They're not smooth. When I use the browser (for instance), I don't have this issue, so it's obviously Gmail-specific.
2) Auto-advance: older conversation - I love this feature, but wish it would actually work. I find that when I read my first email and archive/delete it, I move on to *AN* older one, but often Gmail skips an email or two in between. So I end up going back to the inbox and going through the process again, just to address all my new mail.
I can't imagine I'm the only one with these issues, but confirmation would be great. Also, I don't see any settings I could adjust to fix these, but if you have a suggestion, fire away. Both issues are minor, but they grate on the mind...
you can either wait for the update that's apparently going around slowly or use the "Wipe data" in the Recovery of the phone to reset your G2 back to the way it was when you bought it (erasing you apps data not your SD) then re-setup the phone. I don't know for sure if ANY of these options will work but i think they're the best you can do right now seeing as I've never heard of anyone having this problem, me included.
Thanks for trying to help - I'm definitely more concerned if this is just happening to my phone. I'll try a wipe of the data in the gmail app itself and if that doesn't work will just wait for the update and hope that fixes things. I really don't want to wipe the whole thing! Thanks again.
