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.

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.

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.

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.
Hi guys, i like my fuze but damn, its not perfect, i have had this thing freeze couple times, but here are the problems ive had so far. sometimes when im receiving a phone call it will ring for 1 second then hang up, ring 1 second again, hang up, it keeps doing it, and after each ring & hang up session it makes it appear as a missed call. another problem ive had is with the End key, its not responsive sometimes, when i try to hang up a call i will think it ended because the dialpad went away but the call is still going and will go to voicemail or whatever. also if i havent turned off the phone for a while sometimes i cant access the messaging portion of the phone unless i soft reset. is there anyway to cure these problems, and am i the only one having these problems.
If your on a stock rom FLASH IT... the At&t Rom sucks, download advanced config and change the end call delay to something WAY LESS then 3000 milliseconds (which is a 3 second delay just for hitting the end key) mine is at like 50 milliseconds... put the ROMeOS rom for the Fuze on it or something else whatever you feel is the best i use ROMeOS.... oh and when the phone hangs itself up is it all the time or is it only when its in your pocket?
About half the time, when I try to answer an incoming call, my Verizon TP2 will only mute the ring without answering the call. It responds the same whether I use the touch screen to answer or press the send key, and whether or not the phone is locked or unlocked when the call arrives. Has anyone had a similar problem or know of a fix? Thanks.
I got this behavior the first time I finished getting the phone set up how I wanted. I eventually had to hard reset to fix it.
I think it was probably s2u2 interfering with the nonstandard dialer / answer bits on the phone. Even uninstalling it didn't help though. I have not bothered to try reinstalling s2u2 after the reset though to see if it causes the problem again.
i have this same problem. as i recall there was some registry tweak you could do to fix it, but i cant remember it to save my life. I have the worst problem with being on the internet and trying to answer a call. anyone know of a fix? whenever i am on opera and try to answer an incoming call it just freezes and i have to exit opera and call the person back. anyone with a fix for this other than a hard reset?
i had the same problem before i flashed to 6.5 on my vzw tp2. I also suspected that it was because of s2u2: I followed to uninstalling and i kept on getting a message about s2u2.exe not being a valid app or something. I also thought it could have been because of the dialer i had. The dusk dialer...for sense2.1 while i had manilla. after the flash i reinstalled s2u2, and will see if this persists to happen again.
It happened to me for the first tiem twice yesterday, my phone awoke and I could see my taskbar icon switch to 1x but I didn't see a call then I got a voicemail, when I called the person back they said it rang 6 times and went to voicemail, and it happened again later where i saw the call box and slide to answer come up but the screen was stuck and I couldn't answer it, not even with the hardware key.
Same thing is happening to me. The first time someone calls it won't answer whether I use the soft key or the hard key and the screen just freezes. However when the person calls back, it answers immediately when I click the answer button. I don't have S2U2 or any other phone/lock apps which interfere with answering a call.
Same here guys, I have been having the same issue, but as I can see for weeks now I haven't been able to nail down a solution either...
I too have had the same issue for several weeks. More prevalent when the screen is locked. Rings once and goes to voicemail.
stupid double post.
I've only run across this issue when I am using too much RAM. Try using cleanram and closing out tasks that you are not using.
I have virtualized my RAM so that it never utilizes over 50 % available and have also made sure that all applications utilizing memory were closed down. The problem still persists and can not identify its cause.

have you tried s2u2 and their call answering interface?
This may be nonsense but I'm beginning to get a suspicion about S2U2 potentially being the cause of data connectivity issues for me.
I'm hoping I'm wrong because it's such a great program and I've used it on my last couple of phones.
Basically when I had my Touch HD, I had to reboot it pretty much daily if I wanted my data connection to work, otherwise I would get connectivity problems, but they would always be solved by a reboot.
I never figured out why this was, even though it was mega annoying. In the end I installed a cab to do a scheduled reset each night and it helped quite a bit.
Since I got my HD2 it has behaved perfectly as far as data is concerned and has not had a single connection fail with use every day for emails & browsing, UNTIL I installed S2U2 yesterday late afternoon, then last night it failed to connect. Yes you've guessed it, a reboot solved it.
I know that's hardly conclusive and I'm hoping it's not the case as I love using this program as an unlock screen, but I was wondering if anyone else has had any problems like this?
I was wondering if it was somehow also linked to my carrier too. The reason for this is that my friend also had a Touch HD and used S2U2 and never had this problem but he uses a different phone company. He now also has the HD2, and has installed S2U2 again and is fine, but mine is acting up, so it seems weird that it happens to both my phones but neither of his....
I know I could remove it to see if the problem goes away but programs sometimes leave bits behind when you uninstall.
Cheers

I get problems either daily or bi-daily where I have to reboot my HD2 to get my data connection to work again, (its connected but doesn't work). Every time its solved by a reboot.
I dont have S2U2 installed. If you find the reason behind the issue let me know as I am about to start doing a search into it.
Hmmm, maybe it's just coincidence then. But why would it have worked perfectly up to that point though, that's the thing that makes me wonder.
Mine also appears to be fine in terms of still displaying the GPRS signal/sign, but trying to retrieve emails or open the browser etc gives an error. It's maddening, whatever causes it!
Same thing again this morning when I told the phone to get my emails - connection failed. Worked fine after a reboot.
I'll see what happens tomorrow. If it does it again then I'm going to uninstall S2U2 and see what happens from then onwards. If it doesn't fix it then I guess it'll be a hard reset on the cards....
Back to original HD2 screen lock from 2SUS
Dear all,
Can tell how to change back to original lock after installed disable the screen lock? I don't like 2SUS needed so long to slide...
Just uninstall it, then press your windows button and hit the lock softkey.
I've removed it myself tonight even though I'm a long term S2U2 fan.
Since installing it a few days ago I've had even worse problems with ghost unlocks than before.
Previously the only issue was accidentally cutting calls off, but with S2U2 in use (standard lock disabled) I had a text from a friend on Friday asking if I was drunk. Somehow, whilst locked in my pocket it unlocked and sent a gibberish sms!
Then today, it also somehow unlocked in my pocket and dialled my mum!
I'm just glad I wasn't playing Call of Duty when it happened or she would have just heard "Sh1t!!! You cheating f***!!! WTF??? You..... FFS!!!!" etc
But seriously - I love S2U2 from previous winmo phones but it's made my HD2 worse so I've uninstalled it tonight sadly.
Isn't there a working fix for these bastard hard buttons yet? I LOVE this phone but the bloody hard keys are ruining it.
Hi Cret,
Thank you so much for your response. I did remove 2SUS and selected the Screen Lock from pressing the Power buttom but it doesn't auto lock each time...
Can you tell what to do such change Registry or I need to restore the original setting?
Thank you, dude.

he wanted it back... not disable...
Go to HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd and change DeviceLockWhenSuspend to 1
This should re-enable the lock...
Thank you very much!
I will try to see it works on my HD2.
Mine was the same ie the lock would not return.
I already had BSB tweaks installed which had a toggle for the lock though, so I just activated that.

Hi, did uninstalling S2U2 help on the connection failures?
Well, I only removed it last night but so far yes. I have not had to reboot the phone this morning and the data is working flawlessly.
Also - and this is a biggie! The battery life on the phone is MILES better without S2U2.
Normally the phone would be down to about 70% by lunchtime without even doing anything and it's still on 96% now - that's a massive improvement!
However, one thing has occurred to me as a possible cause of these issues - I've realised I was using a very old version of the program - v 1.5.
I think I'll try the latest one - 2.22 and have a look through the changelogs to see if there's anything mentioned in there along these lines.

I think I'll try the latest one - 2.22 and have a look through the changelogs to see if there's anything mentioned in there along these lines.
Here's two fixes right away in the next version relating to battery use:
- fixed the v1.50 issue of occasionally high CPU usage during idle.
- save more power than the old version when the device is sleeping.
v1.6
- removed option "Power Save" as the power leak problem is found & fixed.
I can't really be arsed reading through the rest of it but it's obvious there have been power issues addressed by subsequent versions so I'll try the latest and see how it goes.
Since I've updated my phone to WM 6.5, I have an issue where frequently I will have to press the power button several times for it to exit sleep mode, and sometimes it will not exit sleep mode and I have to power cycle the phone.
Another issue I have, even more annoying than the former, is when I open my sms messages (via selecting all messages, not using the touch flo sms thing), and open a specific message, when I send a message and exit the message, most of the time it will freeze for about a minute and I can't do anything on my phone until it has finished thinking or whatever.
Any thoughts on how to fix either of these issues?
This question has been asked several times in this forum; Long story short, try searching first before posting. And welcome to the club. Many people have this problem, there appears to be no clear answer why, and Slide to unlock SEEMS to cure the problem, at least for me.
Thanks, yeah sorry I actually didn't look for a solution first, just kinda slipped my mind. Normally I do, but thanks for the reminder.
its just something to do with the stock roms on these devices. so far i dont think anyone has came up with a solution. my Verizon TP2 did the same exact thing CONSTANTLY, the texting thing happened always directly after a soft reset. i think its just kinda unavoidable and the only solution would probably be to switch to another rom. my 2 cents
