Anyone else get this issue?

Sometimes I will click on a link in a web page, and it will appear to load, and finish loading, but the new page will not appear - it stays on the previous page, and at its worst, has taken almost 30 seconds to show you the new page, even though it has clearly finished loading the data. This happens on both wifi and mobile. Clearing cache seems to have little effect.

Additionally, the browser often completely ignores clicks even though it has registered, and up to 2 or 3 (or more) attempts is required until it will do anything.

Anyone else with the issue? I don't really want to use alternative browsers, as most of them aren't really very good IMO.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Zhousibo:
Getting this myself but always assumed it was part considered a lag issue (am running stock JG4 no lag fix at the moment). I did notice the stalling less on Dolphin but my personal preference is the stock browser.

Just curious if anyone get's this still with the lagfix enabled?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] snapper.fishes:
Had experienced this as well. I suspect that it's actually loading in the background, but it just won't show any indications about that.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nicolopolus:
Had been on JM2 with the sd card ext4 fix and was getting this lag - sometimes I'd press menu button and the search bar would pop up. Other times the back b. utton and menu would be very unresponsive. However am now on JM5, using Hackeclair and one click lag fix and it seems much, much better. Not perfect, but much better. Pressing menu now does work much more consistently.

Hi All,

I have recently fashed down from JP3 to JP2 to JM5. I am with BT Mobile and it keeps adding me onto Vodafone. When I click on Settings > Wireless and Network > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names > Add. I can only type in settings manually.

I flashed with the following files:

PDA: I9000XWJM5

Phone: I9000XXJM3

CSC: I9000OXXJM1

I was able to choose from a list of providers on the stock ROM and also with JP3 & JP2 and select BT Mobile.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to get these settings automatically as opposed to trying to find all the relevant settings and input them manually?

Thanks in advance

I got this game back on my Eris with 1.5 and really liked it, but haven't been able to find it since. It was in the marketplace, but doesn't show up anymore, not sure if it was pulled or what, but if someone has a copy of the .apk for tetrads (tetris game, pname=com.rdg.android.tetrads), I'd appreciate it.

What is baseband?

I have a friend who seems to have updated his baseband, but not his firmware. I confused about these terms, can someone please set me straight?

From what I can tell, it has something to do with the communication hardware, sorta a subset of the firmware.

Is that right? Can they be flashed separately?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guney:
I'm having some unusual problems using custom audio files as ringtones and notifications. I've looked through a lot of existing discussions about this, but none of them seem to fully match the issues I'm experiencing.

Most questions about setting custom MP3 ringtones and notifications are replied by descriptions of how a set of "notifications" and "ringtones" folders should be created on your SD card, and so on. The weirdest part of my experience is that, I have done that, and it had initially worked, but now it no longer does!

I can't figure out what has changed. I did experiment with changing the cluster size of my SD card from 32KB to 4KB since the last time it had worked, but I've since changed it back to 4KB (suspecting that might be the reason), but that didn't fix the problem.

Here's the other strange part of what I'm seeing:

I launch Astro

I navigate to an audio file on my SD card

I tap-and-hold, and pick "Music Options"

The "Set as Ringtone" option is enabled". "Nice", you'd think. "Just set your ringtone that way." But hold on, we're not done yet!

I then copy and paste this audio file to create a duplicate copy under a different name right in the same folder

I tap-and-hold the new copy and select Music Options. The "Set as Ringtone" option now shows up as disabled for this file!

What the...? The files are identical in everythine but name (which only has a "2" added at the end)!!! Can anyone give me even a remotely plausible explanation of this? Does anyone here know what the unmentioned criteria are for an audio file to be considered a valid ringtone?

It didn't end there. I tried going around the problem by installing Tone Picker. That allowed me to set the phone ringtone to the audio file I want without too much hassle. I also set in Tone Picker the notification ringtone used for my calendar appointments. No such luck, though! The phone ringtone works fine, but none of the audio files that I've tried so far for setting as the notification sound via Tone Picker worked. I hear no sound when the notification is shown. It works perfectly fine if I revert the notification sound to an Android system sound by bypassing Tone Picker.

Anybody got a clue?

Oh, and I'm using my Xperia X10 unrooted, with firmware build number R2BA026 in the USA with AT&T. (But it's not an AT&T branded device.)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guney:
Hold the presses...

The custom notification sounds have suddenly started working, too. And what I've done differently is... nothing. The only thing I've done additionally is connect my phone via USB to my laptop, which promptly sounded the custom notification sound. That reminded me that I made a mistake, since I didn't want that sound as the default notification sound, but just for calendar notifications. So, after fixing the default notification back to what it used to be and setting the calendar notification to my desired custom sound (just for the heck of it) one more time, this time it happened to work. Hah! That's cute. Now I have no idea why it now works or what was ever wrong!... :rolleyes:

I suppose I'll have to try the switch to 4KB clusters again, to understand if it had anything to do with starting these issues--otherwise I'll be wasting something like 30% of the capacity of my 16GB SD card if I stay with 32KB clusters (a lot of cached map tiles...).
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guney:
I realize I'm dancing to my own fiddle here, but I thought I should add this, too, for the benefit of anyone else who might experience similar issues and come across this thread, because I've never seen this being discussed about audio files in Android when used for ringtones and notifications:

I came across one more clue after my last posting. I happened to be fiddling around with the Mediascape app. I tested tapping the audio file (WAV) I wanted to use as my custom calendar notification sound. It brought up the file for playback but displayed a temporary pop-up message saying "No license. File skipped." Now, I'm not sure if it was saying this about the file I intended to select, because I believe I was actually picking the "Unknown" artist selection, and there might have been some other audio file(s) on the SD card that was assumed to belong to artist "Unknown" as well, to which that message might have applied. In any case, it required a second tap on the "Play" button for it to play the file. (It then played fine, which doesn't make sense if the app really thought it was unlicensed. But never mind.) Meanwhile, the second copy of that same audio file, also showing up in Mediascape as an artist "Unknown" track, played back fine with a single tap and no pop-up about any missing license.

Leaving aside for a moment the question whether that message about the missing license meant what I thought it might have meant, this clued me in to the possibility, in general, that the mysterious selectiveness of Astro in disabling and enabling the "Set as Ringtone" option (and my root cause of not being able to see some MP3 files in the selection list when picking audio files for ringtones/notifications in Android's system menus) may have to do with some perceived license issue related to the files. It shouldn't, actually, because both audio files are homecooked audio files I've put together in an audio editor. But, apparently, Android may be paranoid enough to "assume the worst" about audio files with no licensing info and treat them as unlicensed. That might be the unspoken criterion, to which I was referring earlier, for an audio file to be considered valid for use as a ringtone, etc. (or for playback in general, naturally).

At least, that will be my operating assumption going forward. If anyone happens to see this "monolog" and has a better idea, they should feel free to chime in...

[General Questions and Answers] Mageer:
Hi!

I live in Norway and want to buy the PSX4android app from the android market.

When I use my Norwegian SIM card I can't see any apps that cost money, when I use a US SIM card I can see the apps. I use an US SIM card and if I was making a call to the US from Norway it would obviously cost a lot more than what it would if I made the call in the US. My question is, if I put in my bank account information and buy an app, will I have to pay more money because I am in Norway and not in the US?

thanks in advance

Or if you use or try out an Android release, make sure to put off the SD Card which contains the Android files, 'cause I've met several people who had the same issue as you have, and this proceed helped them to solve the problem!

I'm not sure why, but the ported Android builds may modify the Sense and its files, and that's why it crashes every time when you want to use it!

The old shots are from around April, and the Current are from the past month odd (even though this problem has been around for the past 3 odd).

As you can see the picture quality is horrible - and the lens is clean. I don't know if this could be a software issue / setting - i did try do a full restore of my phone, but nadda! (Close up shots do look a little better - as you can see below)

To me they just seem like out of focus. Might sound like a stupid question, but did you go through your camera settings?

Also, try reflashing the ROM without wiping. You'll keep all the settings, but if something is wrong, it might just get fixed.

All you need to do is reboot the phone with a button combination (can't remember which, but I think it's menu+volume up), and get rebooted. the phone is untouched.

Then do the process again. This red screen is what HTC put in front of the recovery screen, but it is nothing bad.

Hey all,

I was unable to find this same issue, so if it was posted already sorry, but i am having an odd one. My phone seems to be freezing randomly after phone calls, staying on a black screen. However the led light still blinks, if i have a message or whatever, and the hard keys on the front do light up. It doesn't happen all the time, just some times after a call, and only happens with phone calls, and i need to pop the batt out to get it working.

Any ideas?

Thanks

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Assassin5150:
Do you have oct V1.5? If you do that is the problem there are numerious complaints in that thread about V1.5 locking the phone up during or after calls. It has to do with the dynamic clocking. some people have had luck by turning the dynamic clocking off . It didn't work for me so I went back to V1.4.1. I'm sure the issue will be fixed in the next release.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
Proposal to merge all Galaxy S family into 1 neat and big sub forum consisting of 13 sub forums:

Currently we have all these 25 sub forums to go through when searching for something regarding the SGS

1. Samsung Galaxy S I9000 (x5 sub forums)

2. Samsung Fascinate (x4 sub forums)

3. Samsung Captivate (x5 sub forums)

4. Samsung Vibrant (x5 sub forums)

5. Samsung Epic 4G (x4 sub forums)

6. Samsung Galaxy Tab (x1 sub forums)

This is one of the major concerns

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7716554&postcount=12

if we do a little re-org, all the forums can be neatly compacted into 13 easy to navigate sub forums making it easier for new user and old user alikes, to find and look for information pertaining to the phones.

it will also be easier for cross models development, and ask for user feedback in 1 place, rather than having to make a topic on 5 or more different forums

for example, the SGS Tablet is coming out soon, it's still the same family as SGS, but without the radio.

if a Developer were to make an App for the SGS, now he/she would need to visit 6 or more different sub forums to do the research, its frustrating and time consuming, as regular forum users we don't have the power to make a topic that can cross post across different forums.

Also there are countless examples of new people that just purchased the phone and have no idea which model sub forum they should read/post question on; and most importantly which ROMS to use, i've already helped rescue many users to that loaded the wrong ROM due all the confusion currently going on.

If it's a matter of not enough hands (people) to Mod & Maintain these forums, I'll volunteer to help... as I spend quite a lot of time in here anyways.

Here are some sample highlights from more concerned XDA citizens"

it's very frustrating having to go through different sub forums to look for the same thing.

A great example that I'm sure most of you would recognize is the Unlock Project, it originally started as only a local thing only for the Bell Vibrant i9000M Unlock Bounty and AT&T SGH-i897 Captivate Unlock Bounty
