The web exception most likely indicates a problem communicating with a web server (not definitely - just most likely). This problem may just disappear after a while, but it may not. I'm afraid getting in touch with the devs is the only thing you can really do, since this problem is specific to the software.
Just make sure that you can browse the internet okay before trying it again, then be 100% sure that you're using the correct username and password (try logging into the twitter site first, to be sure). Other than that, there really isn't anything you can do.
Although, saying that, since you've only spent £1.69 (or there-abouts), I'd recommend getting Panoramic moTweets instead. It's much better
Found the solution
I from the Netherlands and there was a change in the Internet settings. I need to remove the portal.mmm and now it works good again!
Can i intall TT 1.6 again after a hard reset? I heard something about that Marketplace removes the .cab after install. But there was a solution for that. But prob it's too late now. Or not?

Despite the many knocks that marketplace gets, when it does something right, it really does do it right. You just go back to marketplace and you can reinstall any previously purchased apps from the front page. I have to do it quite regularly. Just 1 click and it installs all the crap I've bought from them lol.
Haha ok thank u very much!
I have the same problem
Where are the file that you have removed?
A new problem.
TouchTwit is not working anymore because of an update of Twitter wich was better for some security parts or someting.
Code:
The email from Twitter:
Over the coming weeks, we will be making two important updates that will impact how you interact with Twitter applications. We are sending this notice to all Twitter users to make sure you are aware of these changes.
What are applications?
There are over 250,000 applications built using the Twitter API. To use most applications, you first authorize the application to access your Twitter account, after which you can use it to read and post Tweets, discover new users and more. Applications come in many varieties, including desktop applications like TweetDeck, Seesmic, or EchoFon, websites such as TweetMeme, fflick, or Topsy, or mobile applications such as Twitter for iPhone, Twitter for Blackberry, or Foursquare.
Update 1: New authorization rules for applications
Starting August 31, all applications will be required to use “OAuth” to access your Twitter account.
What's OAuth?
• OAuth is a technology that enables applications to access Twitter on your behalf with your approval without asking you directly for your password.
• Desktop and mobile applications may still ask for your password once, but after that request, they are required to use OAuth in order to access your timeline or allow you to tweet.
What does this mean for me?
• Applications are no longer allowed to store your password.
• If you change your password, the applications will continue to work.
• Some applications you have been using may require you to reauthorize them or may stop functioning at the time of this change.
• All applications you have authorized will be listed at http://twitter.com/settings/connections.
• You can revoke access to any application at any time from the list.
But TouchTwit has not done an update. I have already e-mailed to them but i dont get any awnser. Anybody knows if there comes an update for TouchTwit? I payed for it...
same goes for me... I'm using v1.7...
Touch Twit have announced a while back to stop supporting wm 6.5 (they consider it a dead OS) and looking forward to WP 7 (bah!). While Twitter changed the way you login, TT didn.t (and probably will not) release an update to fix this. So the chances to see TT work again on wm 6.5 platform are pretty slim.(you can always bug the developers to fix it...who knows). I suggest you switch over to Panoramic moTweets (they still support the app currently 1.8.5) - payed app or PocketTwit (i.m not sure about this one if it still works) or just use HTC Peep (although it kind of slows down the whole system)
Cheers!
Edit: In my opinion, if you paid the app you should get support for it ( i mean it.s not that hard to change the login procedure on the current version)
Well, still no reply from touchtwit devs, after lots of mails.
I can accept a "we will not support blah blah" answer from them, but I absolutely won't accept no answer.
And to think that I recently bought this app... and it stopped working less than two weeks afterwards. Really feel stupid for something I paid which I could use for free. Pun intended. That's why I'm so damn furious.
I gotta rethink my "try & buy" policy really hard I suppose...
I also bought it a few months ago but still have no awnser to my emails. I don't think that there is comming an update or something.
Using the free version of MoTweets now.
So, we are going to ask the developers or not? There just 2 members in this topic who have the problem
I asked the developers to resolve this issue: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=793754
touchtwit market place cab removal
kinda new at this ,but i thought that if you have sktools there is an option were you can create a cab file from a program installed on your phone. so if someone were to purchase this tt1.8 you can recreate it using sktools. anyone can correct me if i am wrong
For almost 2 years I used a Touch Diamond. While WiMo is far from perfect in todays world with a bit of tweaking and some extra software I had a device that did what I wanted it to do. Sure, WiMo isnt what you´d call fast but as said, it did what it had to do.
For the past few days I´ve been using android with my new htc legend. I heard a lot of good things about android and that is why I decided to switch. But even after a few days I´m already having a feeling of regret. While android is very fast and finger friendly the OS/apps itself just don't cut it compared to WiMo. About 75% of the things I did on a daily basis with my phone just don't work (properly) on android.
Syncing mail with hotmail is a *****. It for example does not sync read messages so everytime I login with my pc I still have to click all new messages while I already read them on my phone. This worked perfectly with WiMo.
No automatic 3g disconnect. Now this isnt default on WiMo either but there are apps that just disconnect a idle data connection. Now android has a whole bunch of apps like juicedefender but they just dont work properly and are overcomplicated. Just disconnect if I don't use it. Thats all I want. Let apps and whatever connect when they want to and kill the connection when they are done. Simple you'd think but impossible on android it seems.
Youtube is a epic fail. In the exact same place, with the exact same simcard I just can't load a movie. They all stop after 3 seconds and don't load further. Also there is no option for always having HQ. The WiMo app had this and I could always load HQ movies without trouble.
But it gets even worse when it comes to much more practical things. The browser won't save exchange webmail login info. So now I'm expected to loging like 5 times a day to my uni mail by typing my info every time? Not nice.
And what about displaying agenda items? can't do that on the lockscreen. There are apps to do this but not on the htc sense one as far as I've seen. So I have to manually check my agenda which is just a ***** because I'm just to seeing things come up on the homescreen.
Also I can't login to the uni website. You should get a login popup but the android browser doesnt seem to be capable of this. Ofcourse this was no problem at all with a 2 year old browser... So now I can't check schedules and all.
Also there is no way to stream my favorite internet radio station.
Basically I pay 10 euro's a month for internet on my phone but all apps I regulairy use with internet don't work or only work a bit on android.
Don't get me wrong, I love the speed and all but what good is speed to me if I can't use most of the functions that are important to me? What is even more disturbing is that non of the things I want to do are very special. This should all just work but it seems to be far above what android is capable of.
Basically to me android is a disfunctional OS. If the above things would work, I'd love it but now all I got is speed, but no way of doing the things I want.
Nice try, but not quite it.

That's hardly Android error - it just seems to be a bug in the mail client app. Maybe yry another one?

It's not as simple as it sounds - android has to have an active data connection to enable IM messages as well as gmail imap notifications. Unlike POP3 e-mail accounts where you have to querry the server for new e-mails once in a while, gmail actually sends information to your phone when you get an email. And this wouldn't be possible if the connection was turned off.
And if you don't want to use gmail or gtalk, just disable background data in android's data sync settings and the 3g module won't eat your battery when unneeded. Don't worry, android is much smarter with power management than winMo and the fact that you didn't disable something by hand doesn't mean that it's eating your battery.
It's like GPS - even if it;s turned on in options/on power control wigdet the module isn't physically powered up until an app requests to use it. And when it's done the module powers down again. But still you see people disabling gps support in options after exiting maps believing that it will save some battery, or even requesting an app that would disable the switch on power control wigdet.
So just remember - it's a different OS, it has different rules and the fact that you did something by hand in winMo doesn't mean you have to do it here.
Youtube is a epic fail. In the exact same place, with the exact same simcard I just can't load a movie. They all stop after 3 seconds and don't load further. Also there is no option for always having HQ. The WiMo app had this and I could always load HQ movies without trouble.

Again, this seems to be a problem with your rom/app version. I (and many other people) don't have any trouble with YT on android.
As for the HQ, it's turned on automatically when you're on wifi, on a gsm connection it defaults to standard quality. Personally i like this behavior but i agree that there should be an option to change that for people with huge/unlimited data plans.
But it gets even worse when it comes to much more practical things. The browser won't save exchange webmail login info. So now I'm expected to loging like 5 times a day to my uni mail by typing my info every time? Not nice.

Weird, but also not android bug, just the browser. You might want to try some alternatives (like dolphin, skyfire, opera mini)

Okay, and since when does WinMo display the agenda without any additional software? But i agree, htc really should make some "upcomming events" widget, and default android could use one as well. For now i use "CalWidget" and i know of "pure calendar widget" (paid). I don't know it they're compatible with sense but it may be worth a try

There is no way to do that or maybe you just don't know a way to do it? Try DroidLive (it might even have this station in its database) or StreamFurious. Both have usable free versions.

Well, seems to me that you don't really have a problem with android but you just got screwed by HTC and their customized version of android
If i were you, i'd just look for an unofficial rom. It might actually fix all your problems.
Also, part of your woes seems to be the fact that you knew winMo, knew the tweaks and apps you needed to make the device do what you want. Going over to android is a fresh start where you have to find out everything again. I know, i had similar feelings on a stock rom on my G1 after being a hardcore winMo user But after some research and grabbing a new rom and few extra apps android is way more functional than winMo for me and i don't feel like ever going back.
Just give it a chance and do some research.
Android platform has to mature a lot.
WM without xda is a hell.
You really need to find a new ROM. I've never had one single issue you're talking about.
Edit: And I'm using a myTouch running 1.6.

I know all that. But for me it does not seem to work perfectly. If I disable data connection always on (I never actually completely disable it), it still leaves it open. I checked overnight compared with just totally disabling it and it made a clear difference in the battery charge left. Its not like GPS where the icon actally dissapears when you don't use it but this doesnt happen with 3g so far as I can see it, it still uses more power than when disabling it.
I understand all the google stuff needs it, but I don't use any of it so for me its rather useless.

I did some more reachers on this and the problems seems to exist on a lot of different models/rom versions. I got the latest 2.1 rom for legend so I should have the latest (v1.5 I believe).

I reacherd a bit more and it seems to be a IIS and android problem. Wm and Iphone have the same problem but they just ignore the IIS message and continue. I tried Opera and it has the same problem. Btw, I think Opera on android is a long way off from Opera on WM. Still missing lots of functions I think.
IIS problem for the website login btw. Not sure why the exchange site doesnt save credentials but that seems to be misconfiguration. For example it wont even work on most desktop browsers either.

Maybe you are right. I know everything about WM and for me android still has a lot of things beneath its skin I don't know. If the apps I want exist I could fix some of my problems.
But some problems are just android related. The whole website thing is a combination of android and IIS configuration that don't play nice. Nothing HTC can do about this, nor can any custom rom. Its something google needs to fix. Ofcourse, if my uni would change their IIS settings it could also fix the problem but I don't think I can get them to change settings just for me.
For me that really needs to work because its a daily function for me.
Also I wonder if some things can be done. For example in WM you can just select to only use your provider. I still havn't found a way to completely disable roaming on android. Fortunatly its easy to prevent data roaming.
Hi, I've been trying to find a decent IRC app for wp7. Sadly no luck to date. There's a number of fairly great ones in the marketplace - WPirc looks great and most of the time works great as well.
But it has one problem that I've currently noticed in all other apps. It doesn't have a background agent so when I switch out of it, it automatically disconnects me from the network I'm on. Same thing when the lockscreen goes over it.
Does anyone know an IRC app, even paid, that doesn't do this? Not talking about disconnecting on the lockscreen if connection over wifi. Just disconnecting when not in focus.
No luck on this one
Unfortunately, the current 'Mango' version of Windows Phone does not allow 'true' background processes to give you real time updates of anything. So don't expect anything like you are asking to appear in the marketplace soon.
The best any developer can do at this moment is to create an app that checks for new messages every 30 minutes for a very brief time. And even then, the app is only allowed to give you a small toast message, but never open (or put in focus) the application by itself.
Well, it is permissible for apps to continue running under the lock screen (although MS is very strict about when they allow an app to use that permission, I think chat apps qualify). Real background processing is actually possible - the phone runs a fully multitasking OS - but the official APIs don't allow it.

Yes, but to stay on-topic I read the question as 'Are there any apps in the marketplace that allow me to run IRC in the background, supporting multitasking (staying connected) even if I use other apps'. From that perspective the answer is unfortunately no.
You can use ZNC and keep a persistent connection going on a remote computer, which will save and replay the conversation when you lose connection. You can also couple SuperToasty with the ZNCPush plugin I've forked at github (I have to update my branch and poke the dev to pull the fork.) to push alert you when someone mentions you, PM's you etc.
Any of the IRC clients in the market should work fine with this setup... though, I haven't tried.
Hello everyone,
i noticed (http://www.wpcentral.com/skype-causi...stay-connected)
that if i install the app "i love radio" and hit play, the wifi stays on even if i turn off the screen.
Even if i pause the stream and close the app (back-button), the wifi stays connected.
I really love that (i know i cause my battery draining).
My question is. Is it posible to make a autorun entry so that the app starts with the os?
I've installed a custom fully unlocked rom, right now i have a htc trophy with ROM RUU_Spark_HTC_Europe_5.12.
Best regards,
Crawler009
It should be possible, yes. The phone has an Autorun folder (but you need high permissions to write to it) and there's an API for creating shortcuts. You'd need a small piece of native code, either a native EXE or a Silverlight app that uses COM, to call the CreateShortcut API. You'd also need to know the command-line to launch the app the way you want it, which may require a little research.
You have seen Keep Alive in the Marketplace? It maintains WiFi connection.

Hi All,
I moved from Galaxy S2 to Lumia 820 just 3 days, Since start up to now I found many issue as below;
- Skype is cannot Logout and when someone call its ringing then I answer but it didn't answer, its reload application!!!
- WeChat, IM+ every time minimize it always reload when call it again
- No file explorer
Seem not multitasking OS, it is waste a lot of time to start loading application. I cannot chat immediately when I got a notifications.
Can someone tell me this can fix by any setting? if it cannot improve I'll back to my android with sold this one away. :crying:
Thanks.
Skype is a preview version and not the full monty so bugs are to be expected, Cannot comment on Wechat, There has never been a File explorer on Windows Phone but you can access them via windows explorer on PC, Hope this helps.
This multitasking "issue" is pretty annoying. Thank god I use my 820 as my business phone and my S3 as my private phone. I cant even use messaging properly. Everytime the screen locks internet access cuts off and I get messages once I unlock my phone and reopen IM+ again... COMMON MICROSOFT! WHAT IS THIS!

Thanks to remind me it is a 'Preview' version with don't know how long to be official version even it is MS product seem Nokia app developer is coding much better than Skype team.
File explorer is never available in WP but it doesn't mean it will always not available until it disappear from market. The problem is not only copy a file between Computer and Phone but it is a phone and email, I cannot save some attached file or even I can save it into phone and edit it but I cannot attached it and send back to my team mate. This is a simple job for business phone but WP cannot.
