Has anyone running Newsbreak on WM6 noticed Newsbreak hanging? I’ve seen repeatedly that if you open a feed item that has images that it’s trying to download (over GPRS for example) and you then back out of the feed item before the images load it freezes your device for 5-10 seconds in the feed list view with part of the top of the screen still showing the feed item that was just viewed, and the rest of the screen showing the feed list.
I’ve tried a reinstall of Newsbreak, still happens, this never happened all the way up through AKU3.2, now is happening on Helmi's V1.1 WM6 ROM.
If is or isn't happening for you, which WM6 ROM are you running?

I am using SPB Insight with WM6 no problems so far. I suppose if the number of subscriptions are limited to maximum 4 or 5 your problem may be solved.
Hmm.. I have way more than 4-5 subscriptions, but I imported my subscriptions from before (so I started with the same # as I had in AKU 3.2) and never had problems before. I'll try deleting them all and seeing if I have the problem with just a couple of subscriptions.

I tried uninstalling and then using only a few subscriptions, still had the same problem. Also no matter where the app or channel data was stored, same problem.

Good morning, guyz and galz.
I just installed, via CAB, the latest version of SPB weather. After the installation, it was not showing up on my Today screen so I decided to restart. Unfortunately, now my Wizard hangs on the third splash screen.
Any ideas on how to correct the problem aside from reflashing?
Thanx.
From what it seems, you are having a classic not supported Today plugins. I'm not sure, where did you obtained your SPB Weather? The official site? And is it stated WM6 compatible? Did you install that on a Storage card? What other Today plugin do you have?
If it were to be the 'classic' Today plugin incompatible issue, there isn't much you can do except hardreset.
I downloaded the SPB Weather directly from their site. Of course, I didn't check to see if it was WM6 compatible before I installed it. It was installed to the device. As for other Today plugins, I have PhoneAlarmPro, TodayAgenda, and BatteryStatus.
Thanx.
Did you try to reset (via reset button on side) a few times. This sometimes happens with spb software. After I install spb, i hang on the 3rd screen a few times, after you reset it a few times it normally clears up.
Yep, that's what it was...I had to reset it about five times, but it finally came back up.
Thanx.
Is there any way to add some cities to this app? Nearest supported city to me is 60 miles away, so weather can't really be that accurate.

i think is possible to add a "custom" city using a gps device, (i did it once long time ago) but not sure if can do it in the new versions.
hope these info can help u a bit.
Good luck!
Hi all,
I am really disappointed with the performance of my Orbit 2. At least once a day, it slows down and eventually grinds to a halt - a problem I never had with the Artemis.
In particular he seems to hang when using the RSS Hub program (although I have tried numerous alternatives including News Gator and the SPB Insight). Sometimes accessing the Internet, or even creating an SMS causes the hang.
I have read through the tips in the forums here and recently upgraded the ROM to Bepe's 0.66, but still have the issues.
Is anyone else suffering from these problems? Any ideas for possible fixes?
Tim
Nope. I have over 30 apps installed a couple of today screen plug-ins and the TC runs just fine. Perhaps you were not closing your applications (just minimizing)? Or maybe you needed to use a tool like MemMaid to clean your device?
I am using the stock rom.
On the stock ROM and use RSS Hub a lot. Can't say I ever had those problems either.
cant say i have a problem either
use quite a bit of software on a regular basis and i dont ever shut mine off or restart unless i want to escape my wife.....
NetFront is the culprit
OK following some further research (read "tearing hair out"), I believe I have found the culprit to be NetFront. This otherwise fantastic browser appears to hog CPU at around 99%.
Has anyone else noticed this behaviour with NetFront? Its a real shame as its by far the best browser I have found. Opera would be great but doesn't work with the HTC keypad. So next task is to find a decent browser!!

Yep....it's a known issue. The problem is when Netfront is put into the background. If you continue to use it, just make sure you close (not minimize) it before leaving to go to another app or even your today screen.
I'd like to announce freshly baked version of FTouchSL 2.10.
The new version brings better compatibility with newest HTC Touch devices (HD, Diamond, Pro) as well as work on Samsung Omia i900 was significantly improved. Of course, we've tried to fix all bugs known at the moment.

The discount is still available for xDA Developers members.

they are on ver 2.9 sooo i think there is something wrong with there website
Problems with Blackstone
I installed version 2.10 and put the data key in the folder with the program. I then set it up by enabling scrolling and disabling native scrolling. For a while it was absolutely brilliant, as brilliant as it's been on other phones I've had, like the Trinity.
But then when I went back to TF3D and scrolled around my tabs, I discovered that the weather tab froze when it went to update the forecast. Soft reset. Likewise the stocks tab, which also updates when it's activated. Soft reset. Other tabs - photos tab, programs tab, etc - had no problems and scrolled and took gestures as expected.
The problem never resolved itself, so I uninstalled FTouchSL. But guess what - those two tabs never worked at all after that. Any time I so much as visit them, Manila just freezes, and nothing short of a soft reset fixes the problem. I decided I could live without the two tabs, but due to the wierd combination of tabs I have and a kludgy relationship with the Advanced Configuration program, I've been unable to remove them.
Ultimately I had to hard reset and restore an old backup. Lost rather a bit of data, though of course that's hardly your fault.
There seems to be an incompatibility between FTouchSL and the updating function in TF3D; what it could be I have no idea.
Is the discount still valid?
I don't know why this happens but I cannot install any new today plugin items anymore.
I use winmo 6.1 on ipaq 612c.
I think this started ever since i changed the today plugin order using Memmaid. I'm not sure exactly if this the entire reason though. I've uninstalled memmaid but problem still remains. So i reinstalled memmaid because i find it useful for doing other stuff.
Has anyone ever heard of such a problem? Please no hard reset suggestion. thx
nobody having similar issues?
Hi,
What other software have you installed that could be causing compatability issues? Give me a list of what you have, ive not heard of today plugins not showing if installed correctly, unless you are using a different today screen (such as tf3d for example).
You say you cant install correctly? Are you given an error message?
i have done these things:
i have disabled all start ups...
I have disabled all start up plugins
And even after doing those things i still can't install and new apps with today plugins.
To work I have to delete the today dll component first then the today page returns to normal again and main application starts.
This happens with pocket music, spb insight and others (all of them basically).
Multiple today page plugins definitely wont run.
On top of the typical today plugins i have skype and wefi...
After 225 pages of reading the Opera Mobile thread I found no answers to these problems. Perhaps I missed them. After a week there were hardly any new posts on that thread, so I am assuming that it is not as active as it used to be. So I am starting a new one.
These problems are with NinjaDuck repack 1.3 ro.fl.xxx
1) Pages are displayed too wide. Even if the screen is landscape mode, mobile sites or zoomed views of normal sites display about twice as wide as they should be. In the stock 9.5 both mobile version of sites and non mobile versions that are zoomed to 100% would fill the screen horizontally, but not more. So no horizontal scrolling is needed. But now I need to scroll left to right in order to read most sites.
2) Sometimes I get blank screens loaded.
3) Most times I have to tap a link 5- 10 times before it will actually work. Each time I press the link the blue box shows but nothing happens.
4) Flash does not work, on any site. Not even m.youtube
5) In Opera 9.5 using m.facebook I could close the browser and reopen it dozens of times over the course of weeks and I was always logged in. In this version I get logged out of the site at least once a day, sometimes 2 or 3 times. And most times when I try to log back in I get error messages. I have to try to log in process several times before it will log back in. Sometimes it even takes restarting the browser, or soft resetting the phone b4 it will work.
6) Every time I use opera 10 my ram usage will go up to almost 90% with only 1 or 2 tabs open. This is with a fresh re boot and 50+% of ram is free before opening opera. With 9.5 I could have 5 tabs open and still be around 70%ram usage.
Any help?
I am using the newest USA tmo version of WM 6.5 The inbuilt version of 9.5 with that rom sucks!! I loved the version from USA Tmo WM6.1- wish I could have that back.
I would gladly give up auto-rotation and flash to have ALL the other problems fixed.
Thanks for any and all help.
Merge/close redundant post/thread
No need to open a new thread with same topic, this go against the rules, if your question has not been answered wait and have patience, Official thread is the most likely place to get your answer and don´t think because you opened a new one with same question will help.
I use to had a Rhodium and used Opera 10 with no ant issue, of course never with a stock ROM, since day one I changed to Energy ROM and was smooth and able to open several tabs with no speeds or stability issues.
Thanks. Info is noted.
