When I try to access the manage applications option under settings, it shows the spinning icon stating its working and then finally the apps look like they're loaded and when I try to scroll down it is EXTREMELY slow. After scrolling for a couple of seconds, it slows down and then stops. After being frozen for about a minute, I get the infamous black popup stating: process com.android.settings has stopped unexpectedly...force close. Is this a known issue? Is there a fix for it?
Also, I am unable to add quick dial contacts. I can get to the screen where it show 1-9 options with Voicemail alredy being #1, but I long press the number I want to edit and then select the contact to use but when it exits back to the quick dial page the contact I just chose is not there. Am I doing something wrong?
Last thing: I have the extended battery and prior to the GB update, my battery widget was showing 4200-4230 for the mV readings. Now, it is only showing up to 4155. I put the stock battery in to check that and the same thing, it stops at 4155. How can I fix the battery read problem?
Thanks in advance for any help that can be offered.

I noticed.. when I open up my phone and try to close it, it will not close. I try to close all, close it individually, and the phone icon will just sit there no matter what I do.
So then I go in and check the "Dont show when inactive" and it finally got rid of it..
Now I noticed when I load up my phone, the icon isn't a phone icon anymore.. instead I get a broken MS note icon thing..
Anyone else have this problem?
I've tried to go back in and uncheck the "dont show when inactive", and the icon is still broken.. also tried a soft reset.. still a broken icon.
The Phone app does not close once you open Speed Dial or History. This is not a problem. Get a better Close Button app like HandySwitcher or, even better, wClose.
Hi All,
I've tried various search strings looking for an answer to my issue but found nothing related. Anyone else have an intermittent problem whereby pressing softkey for "Messaging" yields no body or list, only a title bar and softkey menu as normal? When it occurs, I just see the Today Screen where either the message contents or list of messages should be displayed. After some fumbling and clicking around I can usually get the content/list to appear. I only noticed this problem when I first loaded summiter's ROM but now I have the official Cingular ROM loaded and problem still exists.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts or solutions.
can you access the messaging if you go through the start menu or do you have the same problem there??
is your soft key mapped right to the messaging link?
softkey mapped
Thanks for response, yes, softkey is mapped; as I mentioned earlier, when you launch messaging, I get only the top and bottom elements of the program (Title, New, Menu) but the middle content (message, list of) is missing)--you see only the Today Screen in foreground.
It happened to me as well once I started to force 'exit' on all the apps instead of just minimizing them. Part of Pocket Plus close button.
I'm not sure if this is the same case as you are experiencing but it looks like after the Messaging program is completely terminating, the softkey cannot launch the complete program. I was still able to launch it from the start menu with no problems (sounds very strange, I know).
The way I recovered from that is to put the "Messaging" program in the exception list of the close program; this way it stays in memory and I get the messaging complete program every time I press the softkey now.
I *Hope* that helps...
maybe???
interesting thought... well, i don't use that program BUT i am using smartkey and that likely shares the same process SO i will try that from now on after soft-reset and report back...
Thanks for the tip! It's definitely one of those hard to track down the cause kind of issues, how did you come about that as a solution?
My pocket IE closes on its own from time to time. Has anybody else had this problem? I can't isolate the cause, but it seems to happen whenever I'm scrolling using the bar on the right, or when I try to scroll while pages are still loading. It doesn't happen consistently so I can't say for sure. I tried searching Hermes_Problems, wiki, and searched forums but couldn't find a relevant thread.
I have seen this happen if you have your temp. files and cookies, etc. set to your storage card.
Try changing that and see what happens

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes it does happen. However it is not closing down it is merely minimising itself. So if you install a task manager that shows an icons for open applications on the task bar, all you have to do is tap the iIE icon and back up it comes exactly on the page you were on. I forget now if the likes of Magic Button task manager shows the iconson the task bar - I think it does. (So might be worth installing it?)

I'm pretty sure mine closes it altogether. when i open IE back up it starts at the default screen. I know when i press the red hang-up button it minimizes IE because I can open it back up to the page I was browsing, so I know that's not it. hmmmmm...... defective model? it must be a software problem but it didn't go away with my flashing to WM6.
My client has this problem which seems like a bug but I'm not sure.
Whenever he starts typing in the search widget or in the market search field - what happens is that two or more seconds later it loses focus and the text is gone (or it gets submitted? I'll ask him). Either way he can't use it because he doesn't get enough typing.
Any ideas?
This is CyanogenMod and reflashing didn't help the whole thing.
I am trying to solve this issue for my mom. She is running completely stock from Verizon. The issue is when she tries to forward a text message from the stock app, it occasionally will not recognize the long press on the text bubble. The issue seems to be intermittent . When I attempted to test the issue, it was having no problems, then I closed all open processes / applications and the problem reappeared.
When I attempt a long press on the text bubble, it will grey out for a split second, then act as if I never touched the screen. However it recognizes the touch to scroll if that makes sense. The problem seems isolated to the text messaging app. A long press in Gmail still will start the copy / paste function.
I pulled the battery and loaded the messaging app first and the problem seems to start from start up. Unless there is a process that loads on startup that I need to make inactive.
Anyone else have a similar issue, or possible solution?
