It comes and goes...Its fast again now, but most of the time its painfully slow.
What is very strange is the nature of this speed problem.
When I request a page, it sits there fo like 40 seconds , and then suddenly loads the page quickly. This tells me its not a bandwidth issue. Either there is a config problem on the webserver, or it simply is putting requests in a queue or something.

Or maybe even a DNS problem... coz it sometimes complain about the DNS or the name could not be found or such..
Anyway, it's a pain in the ass...

Odds of getting a virus on smartphone?

Well I ask because for the past day or 2 now my phone is constantly freezing. Usually just sending texts. Can anyone help me fix this, or is it a virus? Or what?

What ROM are you using? A hard reset will probably fix it. I've heard viruses exist for smartphones but I've never seen or heard of anyone getting one. Most likely a virus/malware for a phone would be used for information collecting and not to cripple a device, since you could just hard reset or flash a ROM to make it go away. BB's, Androids, and WinMo, all have that feature, I'm sure palm and symbian do too although I've never used those OS's.

Im using the 3vo rom. Up untill a few days ago, it was perfect. I was running aim mobile (not oz) msn, core player, and texting. Now it freezes just reciving a text. I reset it constantly and it never helps. It will be fine again for a while, and then its frozen again. Its really pissing me off.

woah. it the same with meh. just until yesterday i got it bad enough that it froze my phone completely. No hard reset can fix...:C help any one?

Now my phone is going nutz. It starts everytime I start texting. I guess I'll have to try another rom or reformat it.

wait try clearing ur internet cache

Its too late for that. But why would the cache make the texts lag?

memory, n try to delete ur textes that could b one too. n oh wat u mean its too late

I already reformated my phone thinking it was a virus or something. It dawned on me afterwards that I had to have about 50 - 100 texts in thread mode. I think it was just too many texts vs cpu power. ._. i feel so silly.

I'd rule out Virus in the equation, there has only ever been a small amount of Virus's reported for WM and they tended to be like malware rather than to decapitate phone, software can easily cause problems over time things get corrupted etc, very much like your home PC's but far less tools to fix it "often a hard-reset best bet", or even a flash of the stock ROM as even when flashing things can be left the can cause problems in the future.
Regards texts: Should be able to store 1000's without a problem Only time had problems is restoring that amount of texts after a flash tends to make the phone slow.
ClearTemp is good to keep up to date with cleaning you'd be surprised the amount that builds up.
Also keeping as much space as you can on device so only installing programs needed to start up to device and installing other stuff to SD, exception for me is CorePlayer to take the lag off card read "since large data needs to be read at a time"
See you got it sorted Just wanted to leave 2c and may be useful for future

Did u, by any chance, completely drain ur battery and the phone autoswitch off while texting. that happened to me a while ago, and after i restarted texting was never the same, all the incidents ur describing where happening, so i figured out the database got corrupt cause of sudden off. a hard reset fixed it.

ya but wat about my fone? mines is frozen on the start up screen, n i reflashed it tons of times. and i did lots of hard resets but it wont leave that screen....can any one tell me wats going on?

Maybe a virus
I have seen virus infecting nokia phones, and all they do is try to replicate and copy themselves to other cellphones. And in smartphone maybe the same, why dont you try to get a AirScanner AV, for smartphone, maybe that could help. I have the cab, but i cant upload it right now cuz im at work but i can maybe later i will try to share it. take care pal!

Try installing Kaspersky mobile. It´s a 30 day trial, but if there is a virus, it might get detected and cleaned within this 30 day period.
Regards.

wow i nvr had to figure that i had to protect my phone against viruses

LoL this's kinda funny sumtimes windows mobile crashes thats all u had going on hard resets all u can do like you did i bet tho these phones data is all stolen for sure Wifi tho should be safest tho id think anyhows no virus's but im sure theres one two out there but wouldnt really count on it happening lol.

Exactly
As previously stated, wouldn't waiste resources RAM/Battery to run an extra program to find zilch, if really paranoid scan items on desktop before transfer.
In a couple of years time we'll all be running AV's on phones picking up false positives and being baught into the paranoid AV world

In fact, I don´t... I do as Stylez said... scan files BEFORE let them in the phone.

How to on last page ClearTemp
Also pretty sure IE has the choice in settings
The same as on computer a little bit of cleaning will help.

Hmm... is zune marketplace down?

First time I've had issues with it. It will let me get to the point where I select try or buy but then when I go to verify it just continuously loads. I tried afterwards on the PC and it just says none of the above items are available for purchase. This was initially found on the moron test but I am having the same issue occur with all apps.

I had that happen about a week ago on the weekend. Come Monday, the market started working again.

quite lame... I can't even update my apps...

Neither could I. And some of the apps were paid apps that needed updating. It was quite annoying. But I was glad to see it working again come that Monday, without the need to do a hard reset.

yup, having that issue here too, i think it's tied to either your account, or your location... not quite sure why tho...

I have had issue with market place a couple of times. Mostly the update won't succeed and I'll need to delete the app then install it again.

Having the same problem here to. Can't update or download apps (sweden).

I'm having the same problem on the phone and trying to install from the Zune PC marketplace.

Me too

yes, same in Dalian China from 19th Mar.
I tried to install apps from Zune on my PC but got error "None of the selected items is available for purchase". Anyway it worked well before. And then I tried to install using marketplace on my Focus but got another error "Can't get this info right now. Check back in a little while."
Some Chinese uses got same error, but some can still download/install apps from marketplace. So it's very strange issue. Is it related to my live id?
Anyone can help on this? I only found US ZUNE support number but I cannot dial.

Just wait a day. Monday will bring it back to normal. It effects users at different times. MS might be doing some kind of tuning to the market to help refine it. At least that's what I rationalize it to be.

It's working this morning, I was able to download a few free apps and buy some songs without any issues.

I still have the Problem, and also never got that pre-nodo update... Truly sucks...

XDA **VERY** slow loading

Hi, i'm facing a really annoying problem.
My browser takes ages to load a page. I mean, the top div gets loaded very fast (as you expect) but the rest takes about 1 minute or more to load the rest of the page.
I have this strange problem only if working in my notebook. With my mobile everything works like a charm.
Is someone in the same situation?
Is XDA doing some maintenance stuff or something?
Thanks

Was having this issue yesterday during work but today it seems to be gone. Could have been an issue with something down the line (DNS, regional routing, whatever) that just caused a temporary slow down.
Short answer is no you aren't alone. Should be gone by now or soon.

I hope so, thanks

i have the same problem

I think I found a solution (even if it is not absolute).
Go to you profile page and set the sytle (at the bottom of the page) at xda classic
Now try to navigate... it is as fast as it should be.
At least, it is for me!

Yesterday in particular the site was slow because we had processed some upgrades that didn't go quite right. Things should be good now.

Thanks for the reply.
I'm still having the problem.
However, I tries my "solution" on another machine, and it works too.
If it can help other user, you can add to FAQ main page.
I hope it's only a matter of time as the 2010 theme is really pretty. The classic one is just a little bit... old-fashioned.

so many background scripts running, because too much function and too much rules.
post limit to access certain service, wth....
i got bugs to inform the developer but ending to make several useless posts here first.
xD
If xda very slow, be patient!

works well for me

I think i didn't get your point...
I just tried to understand what is happening here...
I also found out that changing theme speed-up the loading process, and i want to share this with other user that are having these same issue... if you want to wait ages to check a page you are free to do so, but please leave other do what they prefer!!

It occurred to me quite often in the last months but, probably, I was "great" enough to decide loading xda when they perform the maintenance of the forum...

Today i noticed a very slow loading here...
I checked my ping and noticed that everytime i open XDA my ping goes from 20ms to 1500-2000, even after not loading any threads and leaving the PC alone for many minutes. When i close XDA, ping goes down to normal.
Please fix it. Maybe some buggy ads or something else.

I think it's media.xda-forum-com... My browsers goes stuck right there.

also cdn.viglink.com is blocking for a long time
Can you please fix it?

Fix available (at least for me):
change DNS in your router config to the ones offered by opendns...
Now everything works like a charm.

i shouldn't have posted this here! just notice what section I was in (found this thread in a search)

i'm using ie9 and when i post a reply(not quick reply) and I try to click my mouse pointer in between letters of the words I type, the mouse pointer is not displayed.

Cannot signin to game..

Hello.
When i log in to Tower Defense (by Com2Us), my phone keeps signing in (loading). I can play the game as normal, but not sign in to the Com2Us network.. My password and username is correct, because i can log in to Slice IT (same developer, from the same phone). Login to towerdefence stopped working a few days ago. I re installed the game, and wiped the cache (normal and dalvik) of the phone, with no luck.
I tried to accounts at Com2Us, none of them can sign in if its the game Tower Defense, and they can both sign in in the other game (Slice It).
Im running a custom rom, i used this rom earlier, it worked on that rom - but with my current rom it does not work.. Im NOT sure its ROM-related..
Any suggestions or someone heard about this before? Im posting it here and not at the Com2Us support, because my account is okay, its from the game itself - and it worked earlier with the same account, as said.. And the account is not "broken". The second account i tried was freshly made, still no luck...
Kind Regards

As you are not having any problems with there other games I would suggest getting in contact with Com2Us. I can't think of any other reason it would not be working unless they are having some server issues as of late. Com2Us have a forum and customer support on there website http://global.com2us.com/.

Hello Meelelord.
Well, the game have worked before, on this phone, just never (i think) on this ROM.. Its been an issue a few days now, and signin on their website and other games works fine... I'll try their support, but i guess i shouldnt tell them my rom is custom..

If they are lazy, they could blame the ROM. If not, it could be useful diagnostic information.

That is why i wont tell them straight up - they'll 100% blame the ROM.. Still waiting for a response from them, they say it takes 2-3 business days..

If they have any common sense then they should realize that android is an open system which is worked on and altered by many developers. I am pretty sure they know this. Have you tried using another rom just for testing purposes?

Sv: Cannot signin to game..
The problem is not solved, but I use titanium backup now, to save app data and thus game progress.
