Realy confused and in need of help

I recently upgraded to wm6 from the t-mobile site. At first it was running flawlessly and very fast. I have installed windows live, resco and tcmp and still things were quick. after a few weeks, strange things started happening. When i went to my SMS/MMS and began to write a message, the flashing cursor would move along as i typed but no letters would show up on the screen. If i saved this message inot drafts then opened it again, i could then see all the text i had written and was previously hidden.
Soon aftet this started happening, the same began in windows live, then word etc...
recently, my athena has started to crash within an hour of a reset. Most of the time, if i start a program, just the bar at the top will load and nothing else, this is most serious in SMS/MMS. also, when this happens and i got to memory (the start menu and setting tab are still quick) it shows that i always have over 50 meg of ram left. Although, if this helps at all, the device runs slowest when turned on from sleep mode. Before i put the device in sleep mode, when i goto file explorer i can hear the microdrive fire up and this programme runs slow. after if has been in sleep for 20 mins or so, file explorer will never boot up properly and there is no noise from the microdrive.
I have tried hard rest, starts fast again, then slows to nothing after few days. I have tried various tweaks i have seen on here, such as disabling autooff and disabling the x-button programme. I have run spybot and antovirus software and nothing. Anyone got any ideas? thank you in advance

There are many many programs out there which hangs my devices and cause the behaviour you described. pocket hack master is one of them, which strangely works for others but not my device. Anothe is Touch Commander.
I usually uninstall the software once they cause freezes.
Try installing and testing your software one at a time to isolate it.

got a feeling it could be windows live. Unfortuantly, this is probably the programme i use the most. Is there any known issue with this?

I personally have had no problem with it, but sometimes one person's experience is not definitive. Try turning it off and see what happens.

mysterious double post deleted

i uninstalled all programmes and it seemed fine but when i put windows live back on. the problem started again. im using build 10.00026 i think. is there a later version than this that could help?

I think PK ROM is likely to have the latest version, but Powell is the one who could confirm this.

[Q] random notification sounds on G2 running CM6.1.1

I have a samsung vibrant, but my wife has the G2, so i haven't been following this forum too closely. I have a problem i'm hoping someone can shed some light on. I tried a search with no luck, so sorry if this has been discussed and/or fixed.
I rooted my wifes G2 for her a couple of months back and installed what ever release candidate was available for CM. After a while the phone had a few bugs that started rearing their ugly heads (as expected on an RC release). So when CM6.1 stable dropped I upgraded, but after a while the same bugs were still there and same with CM6.1.1.
The bugs that my wife and i have been noticing are the alarm doesn't vibrate when set to just vibrate, sometimes random notifications will sound but there will be no text or email (this mostly happens when playing slacker radio in the car), and sometimes the screen will become sporadically unresponsive when web browsing.
Has anyone else had these issues? I've tried doing all sorts of searches on google and here on xda but i haven't been able to find any thing about this. What should i do? full wipe? flash a different rom? trying to avoid that since its a huge pain in the ass to restore all her apps and texts.
Any help is appreciated. Sorry if this has been discussed, but i did try to search. also any suggestions on alternative roms would awesome as well. if it were my G2 i would have already tried them all. thanks!

Not sure if this will help but after I reformatted my micro SD card and copied all the data back to it, my G2 started making random sounds.
I went in and checked all the notification sounds and they were all set to default, I reassigned them the way they were before and that seemed to fix it...
Try it and see.

ok thanks. i'll give it a shot tonight. if that doesnt work i think i'll just do a full wipe and reflash...or try a different rom
thanks again for the response

[Q] Sync Icon

Ok, so I've done some searching and I've found my problem is pretty widespread over a few different devices. However, it seems like no one has come up with a solution. My problem is this, SO a couple weeks ago I had the sync icon pop up in my notification bar. But then it didn't go away. I've tried looking on other forums for this solution but nothing yet. Thought I'd see if anyone here has the same problem and if possible, how to fix it. I can't help but think my battery life is suffering since it seems that since this started happening I notice the battery drain a bit faster than it used to.
I've tried several different possible solutions, except a reset. I loathe the idea of a reset, but if that's what I have to do then I will.
Running stock version. 2.2

Solution...
I decided to give up on my weeks long search for an answer online and called support today. Figured out it was the ooVoo application I had installed for video chat. It seems to keep your device in this perpetual sync mode even though you're not in that application. Once I deleted it the damned thing went away. My Tab, now with more battery power for Angry Birds.

[Q] Bluetooth not working :(

Hi people This is my first post in the forum ... So hopefully my question is well placed. I previously searched this forum for an answer, and since I did not find one, Maybe my question is an interesting /valid one:
I have bought my nook colour 4 days ago. I rooted it and then installed Cyanogen Mods ... I am currently using the latest nightly with overclock kernel (1300 Mhz). I tested also older nighties (started with 64).
I press the Bluetooth softbutton, it keeps in "dark green" for some seconds and then turns off.
I go to configuration ,and turn on Bluetooth in the network options, it says "Activating" for a while, and then it goes back to inactive.
I tought that this was a solved issue and our nooks had their bluetooth working may be that my nook is too new, and b&n took the bluetooth module away ?
Regards,
Enrique

I have just bought a nook as well and this happened to me. after searching the forums I found a couple of suggestions and what worked for me was the hard power off method.
Basically just hold the power button down till the nook turns off, then turn it back on.
After it fully starts up immediately try to turn bt on. For mine, it worked right away and I just always leave bt turned on.

It worked - at least kinda of...
Hi n3cr0tic!
Thanks for the tip ... it successfully turned on the bluetooth. Now the thing is that I can see my phone, but apparently the nook does not expose any service at all (like "file transfer" for example) nor can see the services that my phone readily offers.
On the distance side, I would say that it discovered my phone up to two meters away ...
any further help is appreciated ... I am new to android itself, so it is most probably something pretty obvious I am missing, like for instance installing "the bluetooth services daemon" or similar ... I will search around...
Regards,
Enrique

Similar problem can't find the answer
I used Manual Nooter on my Version 2.2 Nook and I can't find any Bluetooth settings at all. I go to NookColor Settings on Zeam Launcher and there is no option for Bluetooth anywhere. I went through all the settings and NONE of them have anything that says bluetooth. I've tried searching the forum but most of the threads I've seen don't seem to have this problem.
Thanks for your help.

i don't believe BT is currently supported in rooted stock - option is not available in settings.

[Q] Market Question on 2 of 4 Nooks

So this morning has been busy for me, I have so far rooted my Nook HD+, my first kids NC but I am stuck on the second one when I click on the market it keeps going to the Nook's internal internet browser instead of letting me click accept. It did this on the first NC as well but then it just started working. I already did the limited vis check no luck. Please any help would be much appreciated. Oh I guess I need to ask a question. How do I fix this almighty NC Elite?
Update never mind it just fixed itself.

Are you working on Nook HD+'s or Nook Colors? It really does make a difference.
