opera mobile 9.7 bug - HD2 General

I noticed on my phone (and in a lot of reviews) when opera mobile 9.7 has finished loading a page the progress bar still hangs half way for about 7-8 seconds. Anyone else noticed this?

Yes, but never when using WiFi. I just assumed it was due to a slow data connection

okay, maybe it is actually loading something because i just tested it on wifi too and the loading bar didnt hang.

Opera is very good at making the page usable very quickly, the chances are opera is still loading pictures and text that are currently off screen.

How serious is your device freezing/hanging problem?

The title says it all. This is a survey to gauge the magnitude of the problem among the early adopters of Touch HD.
Please cast your vote only after you have AT LEAST 1 WEEK of experience using the device.
Thanks and cheers.
Mine hangs quite often, when typing SMS very fast. Also it hangs constantly, when browsing in landscape mode with opera. Very, very annoying.

Tried hard reset? Tried reflashing the ROM? Tried getting a replacement?
Mine hangs often but I can live with it as it is my secondary device and I don't use it much.
Mine hangs occasionally but i found most of the times was "Active Sync" fault, simply close it and it stops hanging
So far, more than 50% of you are saying it never hang even once. This is amazing! I had never thought in my widest dream that it is so good.
I've mine since the 5th of November... so it's about 3 weeks today... and I’ve already forgotten where is the Soft Reset button...
I think that you should include in the poll, another option, something like the 2nd and 3rd options, but that it bothers us.
Since we paid a lot of money for HD and it does not work as it should, it is really annoying and it bothers us.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortuntely, posters are not able to make this change. Can our moderator help?
Never
I clicked 'never hangs'.
Strictly not true. Have found that if CorePlayer is open, and i try to manually switch off, it won't. Subsequent attempts also fail (even after closing CP), and the only fix is to press the power button a few seconds and turn off. (i guess this is one 'below' a soft-reset but dunno).
Also strange is that if it auto-shuts down with CP open, generally it turns off, but when turned on CorePlayer has no video, and must be closed and opened to fix.
i guess the 2 issues are related to Coreplayer's incomplete Qtv driver - and will be soon fixed.
Else has never hung (2 weeks use) which is brilliant compared to my last PDA (ipaq) - tho' it was often the fingerprint reader that hung. btw i would pay more for the HD with biometric security. i think this is needed, given the amount/type of data most people have on their devices it should nearly be illegal to make 'em without .
I've select never, however I've had a couple of application issues... 1 with network settings and the other with a 3rd party application which both caused application crashes.
How are you defining a hang? WinMo crash screen (application dies) or device becomes unusable and requires a soft reset? My phone has never crashed that bad I've never had to reset it.

Freezes. Not responding to user action, or so slow and unuseable that it requires a soft reset.
So far, one out of four are reporting that freezing occurs frequently, but more than 90% of us are not bothered by this. Any more vote?
Interesting poll!
But i have to mention, i'm absolutly sure the freezing problem is on every HD. It's just a question of the installed software, the running applications and their kind of use.
If i play the whole day SPB sudoku i have not to report any freezings and i'm lucky. But the HD turns me crazy while writing the whole day SMS with permanent freezes.
Just a joke!
surely all these freezing problems will be fixed once we get cooked roms?

On my Athena, the freezing problem largely disappeared with ROM updates from HTC, but the cooked ROM were far more stable.
So, I believe the same will happen here.
I've had mine for a week now and get regular freezes - mostly when using opera and particularly with opera in landscape mode. Also get freezes when typeing emails although these usually sort themselves out if I'm prepared to wait a while. Every now and again it seems like the wireless connection stops working (i.e. the progress bar for loading a page freezes and won't load any further although all the other apps seem to be ok) - soft reset seems to solve each time.
The most annoying problem for me though at the moment is that I have to close all applications before connecting to my laptop via usb or the running apps just crash as soon as it connects - again probably an activesync issue I guess.
I have never used a cooked rom before but you guys seem to swear by them so hopefully one will come out which sorts these issues - or maybe HTC will post an update.

Have you tried Netfront browser to see if that works better?
potential Freezing solution-worked for me
Don't laugh......this has worked for me. Go into Settings-systems-screen-clear type-uncheck enable clear type
I also have no aftermarket keyboard loaded-just using what came with device....no more freezing during SMS.
I cant get the auto name feature to dump into the SMS or email field when I type the name though

For those of you who became so frustrated with the freeze and voted the last option, could you all try out this solution and see if it work?

problem with www.lovefilm.com site

Hi,
I seem to suddenly have problems with http://www.lovefilm.com site.
It works fine on 3G but on wifi it almost finishes loading and then hangs my browser causing me to force close.
Can someone try http://www.lovefilm.com on Wifi and see if it's their site or my phone.
Thanks
I am on stock rom btw.
It's you
it seems to be the Shutter Island banner on the top which takes ages to load.
are you getting the same problem with that banner?
The banner only loads on Wifi, not 3G
Yeah I'm on wifi... the full page loads and I can navigate around, no force close needed.
Interesting...
I went to the site on 3G. It was loading smoothly and when it had maybe 10 percent left slowed to a halt. I got the popup asking if I wanted to close because it was unresponsive. I chose to wait.
The interesting this is that this is the first time my N 1 acted glitchy. I pressed the home buttoning and it took forever to go there. Then, once there, the nexus live wallpaper was stuttering, the running streams of color were skipping about. Weird, and a first. Though the page eventually loaded up when I returned to the browser.
Some bad mojo on that site!

thanks for the reply, thats exactly what happens to mine on wifi. Sure it's the top banner.
on 3G it's fine as the banner does not load, network must block it to load the page faster.
Glad its not my N1 anyway.

[Q] Browsing pages stops working randomly

Hi all,
I've had my Transformer now for about a week and while I first had some minor issues, I dealt with most of them by making a factory reset, although I can't get rid of this one. When browsing webpages it happends once in a while that I all of a sudden get the cannot view page message. The page itself doesnt matter, nor does restarting the browser. If I restart the transformer or reconnect to my network, the problem is resolved.
I've checked for updates but I'm already up-to-date (3.1), I've tried different Wi-Fi's, but the problem still persists. Does anyone know what could cause this? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Marthax
Doesn't anyone have any ideas?
As a side note, I can also say that the Wi-Fi seems to be shutting down everytime I close the screen. This can be resolved by rebooting the connection, but it's pretty annoying. I'm guessing that this is a bug that will get resolved by an update soon?
You can adjust the wifi disconnection policy in the settings under wifi and networks and then wifi settings. You can set it to not disconnect. It is set up as standard to disconnect when you switch off the unit to standby to conserve power. Hope this helps.
As far as the browser crashing which has been widely reported you can install opera from the market which has good flash support and has no lag when typing. I would also give thumb keypad a go from the market it is an excellent alternative to the stock keypad.

Had this issue in Opera Mobile the other day. The browser refused to load a page and just stuck like that. I think it might be a Flash issue as it was a Youtube page.
Thanks a bunch guys for the answers! Gonna give it a try.

Device WiFi stuck

I have a Nexus 6P running a custom ROM and kernel (Purenexus & Elemental X) and 6.0.1 is its current version. My problem is that most of the time I try to access a Web page via Chrome or any other browser it doesn't loads, the loading bar gets sort of stuck about 1/4 of the barbar, I hit refresh and nothing, my WiFi is pretty fast and this happens to me with every WiFi I use and even with my own data connection LTE. I found a way to get out of the being stuck by hitting the recent apps button and accessing again to the browser and it loads the page FAST, but I can't deny it's annoying that I have to that everytime single time that I get stuck. Like I said, my connection is pretty good but even though my Web pages don't load and remain blank.

Fire HD8 2017 5.4.0.0 Slow Browsing

Hi guys, just received my HD8 2017 version 5.4.0.0, i installed Google Play Services and of course, Google Play Store.
The system in pretty smooth and everything is working fine except for browsing: for some reason, on some websites it takes ages to load and sometime it won't load completely.
The fun fact is that i've got this problem with Silk but also with Google Chrome or Firefox.
I suspect the problem is somehow related to hardware acceleration but i might be wrong.
Is someone else experiencing that same issue?
Update
Appartently, the issue is somehow related to my wireless connection, i tried with another connection and the problem was no longer there.
The strange thing is that every other device in my house, android and windows, work just fine with any website.
I ran a speedtest(.net) on both my home wifi and my work wifi, which are both well above 50mbps connections, and seem to be capped at about 3.5mbps dl. When I switch to a mobile hotspot that I create with my GS7 Edge, I shoot up to about 35mbps. Any ideas as to why there would be a difference? Thanks!!
Yup, having the same issue. Would greatly appreciate any ideas as to why.
I'm using one and connections take what feels like 10 seconds to open. When I open a URL it takes that long before the page starts to open, then much longer before the images load. When Amazon pages update, there's a long delay as well. Seems to affect more than just the browser. It reminds me of what a connection with very high latency would feel like. I've tried resetting to factory to no avail.
UPDATE: @boom1995 gave me an idea to try out another connection. I fired up tethering on my phone and connected to that. It seems to have solved the problem...immediate page lots now. I guess there is something odd with the home wifi...even though my laptop works fine with the home wifi. Weird!
