For the first time of using Touch HD, I experiencing some freezes in the normal operation of my applications.
Explaing what I'm saying, when I'm using an applications sudendly it stops responding for 4-5 secs, or that happens even when I use the touch screen.
It is happening a few times and in no specific time intervals.
Does anyone knows anything about or face similar situation with me?

Wich "applications" are you talking about?
Because I use a lot of Resco Explorer, it is the firtst app that came in mind that I have seen the "freeze" problem.
Other times that I have seen is when I press the "X" to close an application.
I confirm this comportement with Resco Explorer: do you have installed cf3.5?
Yes, I have installed cf3.5
I get this in Opera and text messaging. Just becomes unresponsive for a few seconds. Is most annoying..
Noticed this as well, I don't think it is related to Resco Explorer, because it happened on my device when I was typing an email or sms and I don't have Resco Explorer installed. Not a big deal to me though, as long as I don't see it too often
That's the problem with new phones today, because of competition they are shipped with beta firmware. Then, a few months later, a new firmware is released and that's it because they are working on a new model.
(A good example is Touch Diamond)
What would you do if your car had a software bug that caused the engine to loose power a few seconds now and then?
Why should we be so forgiving because it's only a phone?
I'm tired of being an unpaid betatester
I have noticed this about 3 times just today whilst writing SMS. Very annoying indeed!
I've got the same problem. At random in Opera and in sms application. 2-3-4 seconds of... nothing!!!
The problem is that it came out after the first week... the first week never got stops.
Maybe, if we make a little list of programs we have on... soo too understand where the problem can be
I am not sure if it is an application related problem, because as I was trying to remember, I have the feeling that I have seen the problem even before install any kind of programs
Zakkosekk, I totally agree with you, when we have pay 700euro to buy a pocket pc, it has at least to be bugs free.

Yes, I have the same problem. Random freezing for a couple of seconds every once in awhile.
I also had this problem. After hard reset and reinstalling everything (incl. Resco), but without net cf 3.5 i do not have this problem anymore. looks like related to cf 3.5 ?
... Sorry, problem is still there

Hmmm, interesting. I do have .net running, but it's required for some apps.
I only installed cf3.5 today, and had this issue before and after, I don't think it's the problem. It is almost like some background app is taking all the cpu for a bit?
Same problem to mine!
I think we should let HTC see this thread!
i dont think cf3.5 is the problem. i dont have it installed
but expirience the same problem while texting and opera. it's very annoying!
deixi
I sent an email in HTC's technical support, with the topic's address.
I have noticed this problem also. We can easily check is it software related, does someone want to do hard reset and check?
no need for a hard reset, mine is brand new & i have nothig installed on it! but i have the problem.

sorry but im glad im not the only one too lol dont no how bad it is either but i dont want pesonal details, crad details etc took from my phone
can anyone help us?
I can confirm that none of you have a virus. Don't read a virus report for a PC and think it's the same on windows mobile. They're VERY different beasts.
There's very few viruses out there that affect WM, in relation to PCs.
If it makes you feel better, there is AV software out there. Uncle Googles can help you get that.
You've got a software problem. It's probably something that you installed that caused a problem, or something you uninstalled but it didn't uninstall correctly.
viruses on mobiles are incredibly rare, almost always only seen as proof of concept. if the phone is working fine its pretty safe to just turn off error reporting and forget about it. (I always do, and never give it a second thought)
if you really want to hunt down the culprit try removing programs you have added one at a time till it stops.
thanks guys...thats a big relief..i'm brand new to WM hence the apprehensions...i do have a 'F-secure' AV carried it on when i dumped my N96 .
I've had the services.exe error a few times. But only get it when sending texts. The text still sends, so don't really know what it's moaning about.
I'm only running apps that came with the phone and also HTC official hotfixes. No deep tinkering yet for me.
I think its related to using the animated weather wallpaper, which I've since turned off and not got the error since.
Got it also everytime when I start up my phone. Doesn't seem to affect the performance of it, services.exe runs on normally in the background. But it is kinda annoying...
EDIT: To "solve" it I just switched off the error reporting in Settings, System. I seemed to have been blind, I think...
thanks alot guys, really appreciate the replies,
im glad to here it isnt a virus as i had personal details stored on phone,
im not to bothered about the error reporting so ill probably just turn it off
once again many thanks
It could be an app that you installed, as I'm noticing it too sometimes. I more often notice it when after installing, it prompts me to reset my device.
I've had it go away for good after uninstalling the problem app.
Hey all.
I've got a Nexus one last week. I seem to have a problem with the phone. My phone freezes and crashes a few times a day. Most of the times it happens when i run a game. One time it happened when browsing with the default browser. Another time it happened when someone was calling me. It just freezes and reboots by itself. I uninstalled all my apps and made a factory reset. The first time it happened i was browsing the internet on the first day i got it. No extra apps installed. I did 2 factory resets after that and no change. I'm in Europe...i hope i don't have to send it back for repairs all the way to the US. Oh, yeah, it was bought from the US.
What do you think its the problem?
Thanks.

Is it rooted?
No, just stock!
the problem with these smart phones is that they try to juggle knives while running from flaming ninjas before mastering the basics of coordination. But that's open source nature, we get the goodies first and fix the bugs later
This is not an ordinary bug. This makes the phone quite unusable.
My phone used to randomly reboot (about once a week). Rarely since rooting though.
I suggest running "adb logcat" in a command shell while its connected via usb. (make sure the drivers are installed and usb-debug is enabled)
This way you will see exactly what caused the reboot if it happens when youre logging.
My used to do the same when running stock ROM (freezing/rebooting). Haven't had any problem ever since rooting it (I am on BakedGoods 1.1).
That's another, not oft mentioned, benefit of rooting - with some ROMs you _are_ getting a _more stable system.
Never experienced instability/reboots/freezes even when mine was stock. Huh.
It happened to me once, but that about 2 weeks ago. Haven't experienced any freezing since then.
I know this is an old thread but just to update you guys, its been 2 months since i have the device and the random reboots have stopped after making like 10 factory resets. It still crashes like once a week or so when its in the browser. I suspect there's some nasty java script code that's braking the browser and it reboots. But its so rare now that its not annoying me anymore. The average up time now its about 200 hours.
So i'm a happy men now
Thank god! I've been worrying about this non stop since I first read it.

Hi guys.
I did a search on this issue but it didn't bring up any results.
I'm having issues with motweets crashing on me, anyone else had similar problems and if so can you recommend a fix please?
I'm a UK user on Virgin, I generally keep my phone clean and tidy. Not many apps on it to be honest, plenty of spare memory on both the phone and the memory card. I run cleanRAM and Temp Clear at least once a day and reboot the phone every couple of days just to be on the safe side. I've uninstalled (motweets) and reinstalled it several times on to both the phone and the card but it does the same on either. Basically it started crashing (completely closing with no warning) once a week or so, but now it does it almost immediately after it's updated when I start the programme. I'm pretty sure it's not a 'newer' version than the one I've been using for a few months now, with no issues previously, so I don't think it's a 'software update' problem from Panoramic.
Any suggestions because I can't work it out? Am I missing something really obvious, like a cache folder that needs emptying, or something similar.
I'm by no means an expert but neither would I say I'm a novice too, so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Darren.
I have no problems with Motweets,I'm also on Virgin and have loads of Apps loaded on my phone.
Currently running V 1.8.5 which I believe is the latest version brought out
to solve the Oauth log in problems...
Hope that is some help to you Flatcap ?
yip - have had the same problem today.
motweets has worked fine so far. but to say it crashes around 5-15 secs after opening

Sounds almost identical to my problem, very strange.
I was using HTC Peep but moved over to motweets after the OAuth c**k up. And to be honest, as a Twitter App, it's streets ahead of Peep so I stayed with it. I am using the free version though, the adverts are discreet enough, so I don't really see them as a problem.
Flatcap.
I had the same problem, went back to using the built in app for a while, then after a few days tried MoTweets again and it worked fine for a couple of weeks.
Now it's crashing as above once more!
I just switched on my computer and was notified that there was an update to kies which brought it to version 2.3.1.12044-18. I decided to upgrade and then connected my phone and was notified that there was a firmware upgrade.
The upgrade gave me me,
PDA JW4
Phone JW4
CSC JW5
I cannot say what the changes are, or what effect it will have on the operation of the phone as it's only been upgraded for 15 mins.
By all reports the only change (from CSC JW4 to JW5) is an upgrade of Play Books. Certainly I haven't noticed any other difference.
I updated too, wonder if it fixes the touchwiz issues since 2.3.6... hmm
I couldn't say. I've been using Go launcher since 2.3.6
I'm the same and hence why I wondered if anyone out there has noticed. Such a shame that a multi billion pound corporation can't get their own GUI working properly; it's like a bad joke.

Can you tell us what are the problems that you have found? With my limited expertise I haven't found any problems.
Thanks.

Ok, the update prior to this one had major freezing issues on the homescreen; literally an random times you can find that the homescreen freezes as you try to swipe between pages; it can freeze after you've exited an app. The freezes can last for 10 to 20 seconds and nothing you can do short of removing the battery will elicit a response from the phone. As soon as I started using GoLauncher I've had no such problems and ergo Touchwiz must be the culprit.

I experimented these troubles but after I have done a hard reset it is now solved.
I reinstalled almost all applications I have been using previoulsy (which were kept during initial firmware update done through KIES but lost after the hard reset) and I discovered that :
APN ON/OFF was not compatible (but was present after initial fimware update)
This was a possible candidate to explain the troubles encountered.
The other candidates are the 2 applications not reinstalled :
- Beautiful Widget (From Getjar)
- Quick Settings
There is another guy who complained about JW4 and who performed a reinstallation of all his applications one by one and said that troubles started as soon as Beautiful Widget was installed.
For the moment (so for Several weeks) I have not had any freeze.
Additional Info : As I saw Cut The Rope experiments was available for Free at Getzar I reinstalled Getzar and .... First Black Screen !!!

Olivier
Hmm, I only had Beautiful widgets installed briefly and I don't have APN on/off installed. Not heard of quick settings... at any rate I never had the issues until the update so it must be touchwiz or a samsung tweak as Golauncher works perfectly.
Never had BW or APN on/off installed so they weren't the problem. I also did a hard reset and still had the same problem, which I experienced as a huge lag, not a freeze.

Exactly the same for me : I had not any trouble until I update firmware to JW4.
But since I have done the hard reset and not reinstalled Beautiful Widgets (weather wallpaper + meteo widget), JW4 is working very good, it might me a sort of memory management issue which happens only if specific confirguration.
Please not also that When I said I reinstalled all applications it was from the market, no from a backup up.
Also no root performed (as before) so I couldn't blame any kernel ...
