Al of a sudden my qtek is slow as hell. I had PDA Viet 4003 on it, I don't have any extra app installed and the phone is basically used for tasks, appointments, contacts, listen to music on my 4gb SD card, and a solitaire game here and there. I "formated" it and installed smart1.3 again (the one I had before) and nothing seems to speed the thing up. It is slow, slow slow. Even the wm5 novendor id was slow when I was switching. And bluetooth activesync went berserk too. How come? Anyone has any advice?
help....
Maybe is your SD. If it´s not an original one, it could be that is slowering your S200.
I have experienced that with a "false" SD, my apps were slowering a lot my PPC, as it was accessing the SD to read data, but the SD was not quick enough
Sorry about my english...
It could well be the SD Card. my vendor adviced me against a 4 Gb for the prophet for the same reason and suggested a 2 Gb instead.
Pull it out and give it a try.
Ok guys I really need your help because I am running out of options. I removed the SD card, tried without it and there's no way. The only way it seem to work is by using WM5.
Am I the only one here with that problem? I flashed (almost) every one of the available ROMs with the same results: S L O W !
What could have happened? Do I have to do to use my qt s200 with a wm6 rom? Or should I just pipe down, let it go and just use WM5?
Help!
I have found a serious issue with my HD today. Whenever I connect to my laptop using the usb cable any applications I am running on the HD at the time will crash. So far I have had crashes with Microsoft Reader, Pocket Informant and even the built in file explorer. Microsoft Reader then won't restart until I soft reset the device.
Is anyone else having problems or have I just got a duff unit?
Cheers,
David
well that is normal i think coz the device get overloaded it is better to wait until it is fully sync then u cn use what ever appl u want
This is normal!
This is a normal behavior when you use "Festplatte" as profile sorry i have the german version guess the translation would be Harddisk, the phone looses acces to the Storage Card. For that reason each app. running on the storage card would crash. It is like pulling out the Hard Disk from your PC
The explorer hangs because he cann´t see the Storage Card anymore..
Hope this helps

This is normal. When your PC starts treating the storage card as a USB memory stick, it is necessary to close all applications that comes out of it. If I'm not mistaken, applications that you have installed on your device is still okay, right?
Hi,
I've read some posts regarding this issue but I was unable to find if there's already a definite solution to the memory card corruption on P3600.
Can anyone update me about that, please?
I have a 2 GB A-Data Super 80X mini SD that worked fine for 2 years since I bought this HTC. 2 months ago I sent it to warranty for exchange of the peeling covers and they also updated the WM5 ROM. After that I took some photos and used the card on the PC to save a few Tom-Tom updates and 2 weeks later Tom-Tom complained that it couldn’t find any voices. When I opened File Explorer there it was, the funny characters replaced a few folders. Before that I was using the first Portuguese official ROM that activated the GPS.
Tips and tricks I've already found around here:
To workaround the problem you can set the device to turn itself off after 1 minute in the power options, then let the device turn itself off instead of pressing the power button.
Install WM6 - Is this confirmed to solve the problem?
Memory performance tweaks-File system cache is too big, there could be some problems with your storage card, so decrease your file system cache - Is this confirmed to solve the problem forever?
As long as I copy files to/from the card using an external card reader (and not via active sync), I have no problems. - It is slower but if this works I can live with it.
Soft-reset - This didn't work for me.
Thats the one thing i hate about my trinity. I haven't got a card reader, so everything gets sent via activesync. Unfortunately anything above 15mb just crashes the card and i have to soft reset and hopefully delete the files on there.
The only solution i have found that (sometimes) works is transfering over wi-fi.
I have got a corruption problem as well. I installed a game that failed but after soft resetting i was left with files i couldn't delete, but i dont want to format yet as tomtom and other larger files can be tedious transfering over wifi.
I would like to know if there is a way to get rid of this without formatting, and why activesync crashes at 15mb
After installing a WM6.5 ROM and formating the card this problem never appeared again. The 2gb mini SD card is working as it should work without any extra tweaks or drivers.
But now I have a spare micro SDHC of 4gb and will buy a mini sd adapter to upgrade my 2gb card on trinity. I'll post my experience with the 4gb card after testing it exaustively.
For people that are having issues with the SD card on WM5, maybe its a good idea to try some alternate drivers like these:

i'm getting really ******** with the HD, and if you guys can't help i'm going back to my nokia n73

TC,
Flash a custom ROM if you want a stable and smooth performance.
You won't regret it
Cheers.

Problems you describe should not occur even with stock rom. Sounds like something is wrong with your device. Have you recently tried changing anything, i.e. a new custom rom, radio etc etc?
not changed anything on the unit.
it has standard orange rom, and has never been changed.
this is the second HD with this problem.
i was thinking it might just be Orange have made a mess of it!!!
tried new roms etc on the first one. still no better.
so i rang orange and they changed it.. but this new one is just the same
in fact its worse!!!!!

Something is seriously amiss with your device. I'd advise you to backup whatever you need and then do a hardreset if you want to keep your current rom, or try a custom rom.
Whilst I can't speak for the Touch HD specifically, this would be far from the first time Orange (or any other network for that matter) had screwed up a phone's software by way of their branding.
The best thing you can do is try replacing the ROM with an un-Orange-ified one.
I got a similar experience, and I installed the latest stock ROM from HTC using USPL. (RUU_BlackStone_HTC_Europe_1.56.401.0_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe)
It was pretty easy (It took me about 15 min to flash the ROM) and it was worth.
the only pain was to reconfigure all your applications, but it depends on how many you have added.
TomTom is working perfectly.
can anyone recomend a ROM & Radio to flash to a HD on UK orange?

Hey Mate,
I had experienced similar issues with the stock Telstra branded ROM, I am now using Windows 6.5.1 (Build 230XX) on my mobile which has a much better touch user interface to WM 6.1. 6.5.1 would be a little less stable than 6.5 (Build 218xx).

Are 2 great Newer ROMS
I'd advise you to check the file system of your memory card.
I had a similar issue where pocket player was taking minutes to start up, device was hanging, etc.
The disk check found and corrected a number of errors and everything is working normally since then,
Just connect the phone as a disk drive to the pc and run a disk check.
ya just before i mentioned this thing in somewhere else on forum orange provider htc touch hd is crap i dont know what hey have done with it but it was seriously lagging then my one of vodafone....... even touch flow 3d doesnot work good enough.
i am saying this having experience of my bros mobile.of orange network
thanks god vodafone saved me. though htc touch hd 2 is giving me greed...

Definately sounds like the problems you can be having with messed up SD card. I had similar experience, so try removing the memory card first and if this does not help - hard reset (could be some bad application you installed) or new ROM. Plenty of them around here most of them pretty good.
what id do is the following:
grab http://www.business.orange.co.uk/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Business&cid=1135315301990&c=OUKPage&rootid=1130996672026&roottype=NavMenuItem&extarg1=1044137233185&extarg2=HTC+Touch+HD%E2%84%A2&extarg4=select
remove sim + SD card
hard-reset & let it configure
connect to pc (activesync) and run orange's latest RUU
allow to configure
test your issues to see if their resolved
if fixed, re-insert sim+SD card
SD card has various ways todo it. i just connect phone to pc, use 'storage card' option for conneciton type, then format as the lowest format (fat preferably, but usually fat32. NTFS has issues according to many, i havent tried)
i havent tested the mp3 playback on my HD (dont use it), but i've found too many issues with cooked roms i've now reverted back to shipping ROM's just to get a 100% working reliable phone.
ime cooked roms all have one of the following wrong with them:
- beta release software causing instability
- slow performance
- buggy features (Dutty's Leo R6 has bluetooth issues)
that said, there is a ton of reasons to go with cooked roms, just the con's outweigh the pro's for me.

many thx guys and gals
nokia back in the draw
Sorry if this topic has been covered, but I need a solution for this.
My 32GB Kingston Class 4 MicroSD get either partially wiped or totally wiped out when finishing a transfer och when transfer anything.
Anybody know what the cause may be? Its FAT32 so that is not the case.
Help will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
Possibly a bad card. I've run into several flaky 32gb micro-SD cards before, all from different manufacturers. They don't seem to be as reliable as the smaller ones. I would suggest removing the micro-SD card and reformatting it in a computer, PC or Mac. Make sure the allocation size is set to 32KB, and DON'T use quick format.
Alternatively, use SDFormatter to do the format. Then try again.
Just out of curiosity, what brand was that card?
Kingston 32 GB Class 4.
I dont believe its the card, I believe this is a software problem because I had similar problems with my previous 16 one and same thing happened a few times.
I formatted already will see how it works out.

Nope, everytime i put something new and restart the tablet the things i just transfered are gone!
i've had this issue with 2, 4, 16 and 32Gb cards on my archos 101, g-tablet and iconia. 3 different manufacturers, 3 different android variants (not included various updates and roms)
adding .nomedia in the directory seems to stop files from disappearing, but why are they disappearing in the 1st place?

Do you write a text file .nomedia with the txt in the end or without? And do place it in the root of the SD?
Well it seems that this is something that must be fixed quickly by Acer or someone...
Just name a file. No media and place it in directories that you don't want to loose.... or you can do apps like no media manager in the market

Have this same problem. Added the nomedia file but still losing data off the card after reboot. Funny thing is I have afile on the card that survives reboot, and I think it was there before the last update.
Hope this gets fixed with 3.1

That really sucks, that's exactly the same problem the system lets 'some' file be there while other gets erased.
May I ask the size of your MicroSD and brand?
All the best.
Ok guys I think i've fixed the problem!
I have a faint memory of my 16 GB having the same problem before i bricked it and fixed it.
But at the time I was so preoccupied with unbricking it that i didnt think of of any bugs before that.
So, what I just did about 30 min ago is the following, I reflashed the tablet with the same software that I used previously found on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101859
And voila! I transfer stuff and restart and they are still there!
And another good thing is that all my stuff is still there, programs and emails.
Hope this helps anybody with this irritating problem.
We shouldnt have to do this everytime we change our External Memory card to a new or another. Hopefully the 3.1 update will fix this.
Dont forget to thank me!
Cheers!
Check that, problem is back.... fcuking hell... irritating...
Missing files?
Hi all.
Please post which version of the system build you are using if you are having this problem.
My Iconia is on 1.141.07 pushed by Acer last month. I have a Sandisk 16 gig and a Transend 32 gig external SD cards, and have had none of these problems, and I switch them back and forth quite often.
Also, I did a full format to Fat32 on the 16 gig, but didn't do anything to the 32 gig. In order to present this problem to Acer/Google we need as much specific data as possible to help them narrow down the culprit.
How many other people are having this problem?

Same experience with a harddisk connected to the Acer. Some files disappeared and i'm sure not deleted them. Keep an eye on it by regulary syncing with a backup-drive. Is there a way to 'save remove' usb data devices like in windows. ?

The only SURE way to safely remove a USB Drive from the Iconia is to power Down the tablet first.
Hey, you asked. Welcome to boot-up h-e-doublehockysticks.
Quick question..
Are the people having this problem using encription on your Tabs? I have read that strange things occur when encription is turned on.
If so, maybe turn it off and see what happens....
Just a thought.
Added: A fix for encription problems is supposed to be in the 3.1 update, by the way.
Im sorry for the nooby question, but what is encription?
I have a wintec filemate 16gb. While I haven't noticed this exact scenario, I have had files get currupted and later disappeared.
I transfered a bunch of pics and videos from a camera connected via USB to my micro sdcard. Later, I noticed that only 3 of the pics were viewable.. All the rest were there but gallery nor Astro would display them. I can't tell you if it was after a reboot or not that caused them to be currupted. But, they stayed there for weeks (countless reboots). Also, I never pulled the card out of the tablet.
Then one day, I noticed all the pictures (except those 3 good ones) were missing. Still had not ever removed the card.
I've connected several usb drives to the tablet, and never noticed files missing from them.
Not sure if this helps anyone, just wanted to add it to the knowledge base.
Encryption basically 'scrambles' the content on your storage device so it can't be read without authorization (password). It is commonly used for secure data transmission online, but you can go into Honeycomb settings and turn it on for you tablet.
NOT recommended until version 3.1 is released because of a few bugs.
