Can anyone help?????
I have an XDAIIs which over the last few days constantly launches internet explorer on its own accord.
I have tried going into running programs and closing it down, but within 30 sec, explorer opens up. The phone is not bumped or touched in any way, in fact sitting here at my desk now, it is continually launching IE
Internet Explorer opens on its own
I had hoped for some advice on this topic. Perhaps no-one has experienced it or perhaps no -one is interested.
Anyway, after some investigation, it appears this auto-launching of Internet Explorer does occur every thirty seconds or so, but only when the unit is "OFF CHARGE".
If the unit is charging it does not seem to happen.
PLEASE, CAN SOMEONE HELP ME. I HAVE NOT HAD THE BEST EXPERINCE WITH THE XDA2s AND AM HOPING THESE LITTLE ISSUES CAN BE RESOLVED
happens to me too i have but the button lock on which helps but doesent totally cure the problem.

Anyone else finding that PhoneEx locks up on them after awile? Seems like a great program otherwise but 2 or three times a day I'll bring it up and it won't do anything other than hide and show itself. It won't navigate between favorits, calls, contacts, etc. It is completely unresponsive. Attempting to kill the process with MemMaid generally toasts the phone and I have to reset it.
Just wondering if I'm alone in this, or if anyone else has discovered a magic combination of things that may be leading to this.
AJ
Well I can possibly answer my own question. On a hunch, I disabled S2U2 from automatic startup and I haven't had PhoneEx lockup once since.
Would suck cause I like S2U2, with PhoneEx I can ditch about three other programs I've been using, so I guess if it continues to work I will have to do without S2U2. Or perhaps I will try fiddling with it to see if there's a particular setting in S2 that is causing this issue.
AJ
Although since removing S2U2 the PhoneEx lockups have diminished in freqeuncy, they haven't gone entirely. I woke up this morning to find that PhoneEx was unresponsive, but, as is always the case, the rest of the system works normally (I haven't yet received a call with it in this state - it will be interesting to find out what happens).
Has no one else experienced this problem, or does no one else use PhoneEx?

PhoneEx
I am... for about 4 days on two phones...nothing like that happend...yet and hopefully never does. love s2u2 and PhoneEx...i personally do not use phoneex to answer the incoming calls...i let the s2u2 to do all the job including the notifications....which is better to let s2u2 to deal with them so you won't get any conflicts...take care
Ps.
by the way a new version it's gonna pop up any day now 1.4 the russians done a new improved version it take about four times less memory(about 300kb instead of 1000 kb) and fixed some bugs to it...it's out there already but only in chirilic language...the only problem i have so far is that i can't use the speaker button it kinda do weird noise when activate as if the speaker it's to close to the mic.
PhoneEX
I does not lock up for me, although it took me 2 days to note that the keboard locks during a call and you have to unlock it to use the keyboard (could that be your problem?)
I do have another problem though and that is if I do a soft reset for whatever reason PhoneEx then spends 3 or 4 minutes "Intialising Contacts" before I can use my HTC Touch HD.
Anyone got a solution for this.

phoneEx is a great program. my friend has it and he has never had a problem with it on his windows mobile device.PhoneEx is a great program people with a windows mobile device should definatly look in to the program . i am curenty using the trial i am about to get the program i am looking forward to it i canot wait i can already see its going to be great . my phone is doing great with this program i love it and thanks Iconsoft you guys are really smart for putting the program on there . you can get the program by going to www.iconsoft.com
i recomend it it is a great program
Installed PhoneEx (no to answer phone) on my Elf today after a week of using S2U2 - and had four lockups already. Any hope for this? *trying again with the "don't use keyboard lock " setting set to true as per another thread/post.
Has ANYONE else run into this problem at all? This is the second time in two days of extensive OM use and it's starting to bother me. It seems that after a certain amount of time with Opera Mobile 9.5 (stock ROM - the version that came with the Alltel TP) open and running, typing using the on-screen (TouchPal) keyboard and just other general browser features, all of a sudden, my Call, End and slide out keyboard buttons don't work. The keyboard backlight doesn't even turn on when I open it and sometimes the orientation doesn't even change it gets so bad/laggy.
If memory serves correctly, it also only seems to happen when I'm charging it too. Does anyone else even have this problem? Could someone suggest some registry settings that I might have modified to cause this? I'm 95% sure it's Opera Mobile because I don't think (remember) this has ever happened with anything else from the Phone app to Texts to Total Commander.
Anyone?
(I should also add that even when I close OM it shows about 30-40MB of RAM being used that shouldn't be used. It's normally about 125-130MB of free RAM but when this happens it drops to 95MB free with NOTHING running)
It happens to me too.After extensive use of opera mobile...
Even without charging sometimes.All I can do to fix it is soft reset.It is really annoying.I am waiting for a new firmware update from the greek operator to resolve this. I think the opera mobile version is the culprit too,but I can't install another version,I cannot flash anothe firmware because I will lose my guarantee.Other than that I am very pleased with touch pro!
I just wanted to bump this to see if I could get a couple more replies. I'll give it a few more bumps, as it's 2AM EST right now, so I'm probably missing the peaktime traffic hours
Hello!
I had similar problem with my tp. After extensive use of opera over wifi set to best performance phone gets hot, the keybord does not respond and in a while phone hangs. After soft reset all is back to normal.
It never happened diring browsing over 3g/hsdpa
BHole
I've got the same problem, i'm using touch pro. Running messenger but it seems to auto close as it likes i'm use to it. And after running opera for quite long time, sometimes it auto close together with the messenger, sometimes huge lag occurs that made my keyboard unworkerable. Soft reset cleared all.. Any ideal to fix it???
Hi everyone, I hope someone can help me.
I just upgrade to the offical Verizon ROM to WM 6.5 and I'm having some issues.
The main problem: I take my phone off of sleep mode or stop it from entering just prior to and my TF3D home screen shows but the banner reads "messaging" instead of "start" like I'm in my messages and the virtual keyboard will pop up. This also happens 85% of the time when I recieve a new txt/mms not with emails however. This is a new development I;ve had the ROM since launch.
Before I call VZW and get stuck on hold for 50 years I figured i would see if anyone else has this issue or knows of a .cab that might fix the issue. I have had luck with .cabs in the past for other issues.
Side note, has anyone successfully stopped the clock from flipping an hour and two minutes? I have checked the fourms downloaded all the .cabs and nothing seems to actually stop it.
I am in the exact same boat as you my friend. I am also having diffuculty locating a background for all tabs .cab and a working rotator for all screens that functions in the VZ TP2 6.5update

I have a very similar problem to you my friend. When I check my messages (txt or emails) and close out of them the Messaging will pop up like yours, although my keyboard doesn't show up. Sometimes it takes 5 seconds sometimes 30 seconds.
My main issue is it will turn my screen back on when this happens. So if I read a txt and close it and I don't wait for it to pop up, my screen will stay on. It's killing my battery life and some funky things happen when its in my pocket turned on..
Any idea if anyone has come across a solution to this?
My Optimus 3D has suddenly developed some serious problems and I have no idea what is going on.
First indication was Power Off refused to work, it would blank the screen but the backlight and capacitive button light would remain on forever. So I have had to force off by holding the power button.
After doing this a few times its now taking AGES to finish bootup and most of the widgets are working sporadically. One minute they will be working, the next they won't and might respond to a touch half an hour later. Yet, a few of them still work fine. I have tested using LG Home as well as Launcher Pro, the same problem occurs on both.
Worst problem of all though is typing has stopped working. First time it did it I simply rebooted and it worked again, but its stopped functioning again and rebooting every day is unacceptable when it was fine before.
Basically any text input form I press, the keyboard pops up and I start typing, but the text doesn't go into the text input field. This is with any keyboard selected.
This is really frustrating as prior to these problems I was really loving this phone and hardly ever had to reboot it.
It seems it all started after something caused the phone to reboot itself in the night (the bootup jingle woke me but I was too tired to check) and then I think it locked up during the reboot as battery monitor widget shows no log entries after the reboot, just the battery suddenly at 100% again as I charged it before powering it back up the next day.
I would prefer to know how to fix it in case it happens again but if I am forced to restore to factory settings, any advise for what and how to backup what is on there so I have minimal work to get it back to this state (hopefully without the glitches)?
I have had both internal and external SD mounted over Mass Storage and done an error check from Windows on them which found no errors, as I suspected it was corruption on internal SD but clearly not.
The weird thing is, other than the above the phone works fine - but its fairly useless when I can't type on it and I am concerned the widgets hanging is degrading the battery life.
Flash a clean stock rom and see if it fixes it

I actually figured out what is wrong and its bizarre. It was my router!
Basically I upgraded DD-WRT to the latest version (which has since been taken offline so obviously buggy) and it caused all the above symptoms. The instant I disconnected from WiFi all events which were meant to happen suddenly happened all at the same time, then everything was back to normal. Connect to WiFi and it hangs again.
I have no idea how a bug on my router can cause such a wide variety of problems but there you go. Downgraded the router back to the previous firmware and all is well again.
I briefly had the "no text input" error happening after i removed some bloatware with root explorer. It was really starting to irritate me but when i turned the phone on it's side it worked again and has never stuffed up since!
Just thought I'd share my experience.

Well unfortunately I was wrong, problem started again today and I even tested at a friends house. Basically, when connected to WiFi my phone goes AWOL with widgets hanging and text input randomly stopping working.
Earlier to search marketplace I had to disconnect from WiFi, type the search string, reconnect, purchase, disconnect (it refused to download) and use HSDPA instead. This is really frustrating as I'm about to get 40Mbit broadband which is going to suck being forced to use T-Slowbiles pathetic 1Mbit HSDPA to download instead. Perhaps not the end of the world, but its really really weird.
Hi all, I did a search with no luck, so hopefully this is a valid question!
I have a weird problem with my moto G3 2015 and was hoping you guys wouldn't mind reading about and possibly offering some kind of advice if it's not too much trouble.
Every so often, I'd say at least once a day, the screen becomes unusable until I press the power button a couple of times (to turn the screen off and on again). Even when I do this quick fix, the problem comes back very shortly afterwards. It only goes away after 10 minutes or so, or if I get annoyed and put my phone away. I thought this was a hardware issue but don't believe that now due to the following:
1. It is a different problem depending on the app I am using. In facebook, scrolling is no longer smooth, and doesn't continue scrolling if I flick down the feed. It only scrolls down while my finger is actually on the screen. I am also unable to actually 'click' on anything, only scroll. In Brave (my browser) it acts as if I've just double tapped the screen, as in if I move my finger down it zooms in, and if up then it zooms out. In snapchat when watching a friend's story it acts as if I've held down on the screen in order to forward their snap to somebody else, and then it doesn't respond at all to any touch.
2. The 3 buttons at the bottom are always functional no matter what
3. If the problem begins when I'm in an app, if I go to my home screen, I am able to navigate my home screen and app drawer with no problems. It's as if the problem is contained within the apps.
This started a few months ago while I was running the copy of android that the phone came with. I put on lineage OS (lineage-14.1-20170629-nightly-osprey-signed) and pico gapps (open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20170629). This seemed to fix the problem for a while but then it started again a week or so in.
The fact that the problem is only happening while I am in the apps, and disappears when I exit out of them makes me think it can't be a hardware issue? I am also no expert with phones or android, but am somewhat experienced in rooting and playing with settings etc. (I'm not sure if it happens in other apps I'm afraid, I can test if need be next time it happens).
Thanks so much for any help, and please let me know if there is any more info I can give you!
P.s. The new ROM is much better than the old one.! The battery definitely drains faster though, but that's a whole other problem

That is actually typical behavior on older devices using as many social media apps as you're using. Especially Facebook and Messenger if you're also using it.
Have you tried booting to recovery and wiping cache when this happens?

Thanks for replying!
When I flashed lineage OS I believe I wiped the cache. I will do it again though to see if it helps.

Yeah, you wipe cache when you flashed, or at least you should have.

Hi there
If the issue was software related, a change of rom should have solved it.
If the issue is kernel related, all users must face the same issue...but that is still not the case.
So This might be an issue with the screen being old. When the power consumption fluctuates, lcd screens can misbehave.
