[Q] Windows 8 RP Stoe download speed is very slow!!! - Windows 8 General

Hi all:
My windows 8 release preview 8400 Store apps download speed is very slow.
how to resolve this problem???

It could be your internet, Contact your ISP and they might take action. If not. Try stopping the download and starting again.

Any solution? I don't think is my ISP... everything else goes right.
Does the Store use a special port to download? I mean other than 80 or 8080?

Offline browser

Hi
Does anybody know if there is a offline browser for HTC HD2 Winmo or Android that works well.
It would be really nice to be able to download selected web sites, with a pre set number of link levels.
So that I can download web pages when in WiFi zones, and read them when on the bus etc, without being charged for data
I know there are such programs for PCs, like Httrack Website Copier.
There is no such apps?
Really need it, hope somebody makes on in that case.

Android SDK working but computer now suffering (paths directory prob?)

Hello.
I've installed android SDK on my acer aspire ax1300 computer twice now & the android SDK works fine but has left my computer running horrible. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem or perhaps has a solution?
Specifically the problem i get is that when i try to open a web page at random times throughout the day i will get "windows can not display the web page" it offers a point to select diagnose problem so i do & it comes back "there does not seem to be anything wrong" It then refreshes the web page to where i was going and everything works fine. It does this maybe 10x in a day. Also i noticed that trying to view web pages takes a lot more time..i mean A LOT more & the time it takes to shut down has increased as well. I know android sdk is a huge file but i still have a ton of memory left so I know its not a memory issue or a installed issue since its working fine. My thought was maybe it was a paths directory issue but i cant find any info to support this or even why i thought this...jus do i guess,. lol.
solutions i've tried​1st) i uninstalled android sdk to see if it would do it with it uninstalled which it does not...only when android sdk is installed do i have these problems
2nd) i double checked to make sure my computer meets the requirements set forth by google which it does
3rd) i tried to look through countless forums including videos from theunlockr.com & have not came across anyone with this problem or similiar for that matter
4th) i defragmented my hard drive
5th) i disabled indexing
6th) cleared computer of unwanted files & disabled unnecessary files from within the start up menu
7th) i finally caved and came to the experts here on xda for help...please help me fix this issue or i will have to ban my hopes of having android sdk & a working computer
8th) i disabled Aero
9th) i ran avg pc tuneup including cleanup/defrag/tweaks/optimize/registry repair & registry defragment all of which did not seem to help the issue
10th) installed firefox to see if i would have the same issue...will report back after some time using to see if it helped
Thanks in advance to any help any member gives or any nudge in the right direction ?:^D​
also if i kill the process to adb.exe & java.exe i notice a huge system improvement..soo... . i then tried to visit sites that had been giving me problems & i did not seem to have those same issues. web sites seem to load much faster also signing out of yahoo is much quicker. (it would take a very long time to sign out of yahoo before..normally i would have to click sign out many times)
anyone with info/help & also wouldn't mind passing it along i would be very appreciative.
so i figured out what was causing my problem..not to sure how to fx it but i wanted to list it just incase someone else runs into the same issue i have had.
i have a cisco router which worked fine when i dont have android sdk installed but when i do i cant use the router. well i can but it gives me the problems listed above. when i unplug the router my computer runs & works just fine so i know its the router that has been giving me problems. i guess i'll look for a new router and hopefully i wont have that problem anymore.

[Q] (Omnia 7) Internet Explorer crashes

Since wednesday IE crashes on my unlocked T-Mobile (Germany) Omnia 7 with MANGO
Starting IE or clicking links from Bing, Facebook (built in and App) and many more does not work. (using Surf Cube since then)
- OS: 7.10.8107.79
- Firmware: 2424.11.9.4
I did many App-updates on this day.
Unfortunately I did not remember which Apps and I upgradet my laptop to Windows 8 X64 and forgot to backup my backup.
My last WP7 Backup/Sync on external HDD was three months ago.
When I restore my Phone to this point, will all my Text Messages/SMS, Game Saves Calls and so on be deleted?
Any other Ideas to get my IE working?
Another question:
I want the Apps from LG, NOKIA, HTC and so on…
When in use some custom ROM’s/upgrade to them, will my Messages/SMS, Game Saves and so on be taken over?
Thanks for the answers!
Installing Custom Roms will wipe your entire phone clean it will not be possible to input the data from your stock to the custom Rom regrettfully...for now...I have the mi7ROM 1.3 installed on my Omnia 7 and I have no problems you can get all the apps you need by just following the thread.

My IE works fine with mi7ROMs
Hi, try to disable open all links in new tab in settings. I got this problem where my tabs in IE do not work anymore and when IE is parameterized to open links in new tabs then it won't open at all.
Tell me if it worked.

Hello,
I have the same problem with my Omnia 7. Internet Explorer crashes right after i tap the IE tab. I disabled open all links in new tab from setting, cleared my history, reset the phone....still not working. Other browsers are not working as well. I have the same problem with my yahoo mail account. I can see the inbox but when i tap a certain message it crashes the same way as IE. The facebook app on the other hand works fine, so there are no connection problems. What can I do? Thanks.

Most Metro Apps crashing

Hi all!
I have installed a Windows 8 Pro on a Desktop PC (W8, 64bit at E8400 with 8GB RAM on Samsung SSD Serie 830).
After that, I logged in with my Windows Live Account. I start setting up the Mail App, with a few imap Accounts and an Exchange 2010 SP2U6 Account. I have installed ATI Radeon Drivers 12.8 for my Serie 5xxx graphiccard and the win7 Drivers (there are no w8 Drivers) for my Soundblaster X-fi Titanium.
Than I noticed problems, while using Metro apps. Some are working a few clicks, like mail, calender, contacts, before they crash, some apps crashing directly after starting them (apps loaded by store are crashing, too. Some apps are working fine.)
I tried a W8 refresh. After refresh I thought this will work now, cause for a few minutes, the apps worked, than they start crashing again.
After that, I installed W8 Enterprise on a DELL XT2 with Touchscreen. After Installation, I logged in with my Live-Account.
Most informations got synced, like mailboxaccounts, and other settings. Now, what happend, after working with the Metro apps? They crashed! Same Problem at the other PC System, with a fresh Installation of another w8 Version.
Both Images are official from my MSDN account and not cracked or modified.
I got the following Event entrys (example for mail app Crash, every appcrash Event looks same...my win8 is german, so the logs are in german, too...sorry):

Can somebody help me?
Thank you.
I read about a problem with the MS Live Account. It seems, the problem is cause of a bug inside that account. This would explain, why I get this error on both pc´s (thought about it before). The problem is.....how can I fix this, without changing to an local account? It seems, Microsoft has to fix it. Until that, W8 is useless for me.
That´s really a bad start for W8 and me
Anyone else got this problems?
Go I to ease of access. Look for something about tabs, shut it off. It causes issues in preview. It was left on in the preview but is off in the RTM.

Swipe the charm bar on the right.
Go to settings.
Go to change pc settings in bottom right
go to ease of access.
This bug isn't in the RTM but is in the consumer preview and release preview
Shut off any ease of access. The culprit for me was one that had something to do with tabs. The RTM trial i am running now doesn't have it but the consumer and release preview i used previously did.
Hope that helps!
Sorry, didn´t help, this are all RTM...there are no Consumer Previews from Professional or Enterprise...
I still have this problems, and many others, too...
There is no chance to solve that at the moment, Windows 8 is useless for me
Try to Update Your Video Card if your Manufacturer does not have a driver for the windows 8 Try not to update your VGA When you perform Refresh or reinstall
Thanks for the offer, but again...I can use different PC´s with Windows 8...can just use yours once and will get the problem, it´s not a local problem. With my own PC, I use the amd drivers 12.8 since beginning, the other is a Intel GMA Card, so I use standard Win7 drivers for this...I can setup more and more pc´s, it´s possible, cause I have a big infrastructur, but the problem is reproduciable on every system whit my MS Live Account.
Maybe a problem with SAN Certificats at the Exchange Server, or a problem with the Exchange Mailbox Rules, to protect the PC, or maybe a problem, cause using a MS Live ID with own login address and using this address with another IMAp Account...but it´s definitely a problem with the MS Live Account.
I can´t and don´t wanne change this account, cause with this account I have some WP7 purchase, many configs, Microsoft VLS, MSDN Technet....
I think it´s just buggy and needs to be fixed by Microsoft
Do you have the machine joined to a domain? Lots of problems with group policy settings. There is a thread on Microsoft forums about the issue and solutions.

Not sure if this is related to your issues but I recently caused all my Metro apps by adding sharing permissions to my entire C: drive. Apparently a dumb thing to do since adding sharing to the hidden folder "Application data" will break all Metro apps from working. And I thought the solution would be as simple as un-sharing that folder but apparently not.
I've bought Windows 8 Pro 64Bit today, upgraded my Win7 with it and got the same Problem....Apps are crashing immediately after clicking on them.
Same here... even MS apps crash. Updated from 7 Pro to 8 pro two days ago and this is really bad. Looks like a semi-finished product...
A bit late maybe, but try (as test) to use the standard Microsofts Display adapter.
(Control Panel > Device Manager > Display adapters.)
My metro apps started crashing as soon as I updated my (intel) video card's driver.
When I changed back to the "default" video driver all was okay again.
Are any of you guys using AVAST Anti Virus?? I had the same problem with apps crashing after clicking on them until I updated to the newest version of Avast and everything started working properly.
Anyone find out why this happens? And how do I fix it? I do no have any antivirus installed. I am unable to download apps from the store. It says not connected to internet. Its driving me crazy.

i have the same problem.... i can't log in anymore with my MS account :crying:
Okay I see a lot of people complaining that metro apps are not working.Here is what you should do:
1)First of all ,check your screen res.Apps need a minimum resolution of 1024 x 728 to work.
2)Download the latest updates for your video drivers
3)Uninstall avast antivirus.Use windows defender instead.
4)Check the apps reviews whether the app works for others.
5)Do a detailed Search on google

It is as i said, the first time i was able to sing in with MS account and after a few days i made a recovery (because i changed "owners permission") but without erasing my files and now i can't log in anymore...
The metro apps crashed and i can't see anything online
I searched a lot (i used fix from MS with account sync and windows app store) i followed all the steps but it's the same.... i was thinking to make a fresh installation without my files and deleting pc permisson on MS profile.... maybe it will work...

First I would try and create another user account. Then log in with that one and see if it works. That will tell you if Windows 8 itself is hosed up.

[Q] New SIM unlock Samsung Galaxy software. FAKE???

Folks,
Bumped into this youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lw-6vwjJI4
Looks fake (too easy), and a dare devil friend downloaded the software (after filling up several marketing pages), and install in his VM machine. The software asked to download 'patches' and that's when he kill it!!!
Have anyone else try it?
