Hi all,
I am loving my TP2 but have a couple of annoying issues. anyone else experiencing the same...?
Firstly Opera keeps crashing. Tends to happen when trying to log in to a site. www.facebook.com mobile site is fine but crashes if I try to log in to the full site. I downloaded Opera 9.7beta and it does the same on that one too.
Also my internet connection keeps dropping. If downloading emails it might download the headers then lose the connection. Sometimes pressing send/receive gets it back online but othertimes it wont connect again until I go in to comm manager and turn the phone radio off then back on.
Frustrating problems that I didn't expect from a brand new device.
Never tried logging into the full site. I tried it right now but it I can't even input my username. So I gave up. Using the mobile site is just as good. I don't think it can handle the full site anyway.
I have never lost my connection in a good reception area. It could be your area or your carrier that has a weak reception. Try in a different area or try the phone using another network or carrier. Ask a friend to help you that uses a different network.
Make sure they are ok with you using data tho.
I had the same problem when logging on full Facebook site on my old Kaiser with Opera 9b1, it was crashing.
But on my TP2 using the included Opera, its working quite good without crashing.
Maybe you installed another sofware that uses all the memory ? just a random guess.
Looks like the HTC built in T-Mobile settings could be the cause.
The built in settings have a Proxy Server setting that I couldnt remove so I set up a new connection using:
general.t-mobile.uk
user
pass
And did not set up a static IP address. It seems to be stabler in the 20 mins I have used it and I can now log in using the WM Facebook program as previously it would not let me log in.
Hope that helps someone.
I'm back again for some help!
I have managed to get Facebook working and Opera no longer crashes using the new data settings I entered but I am still losing my data connection.
When I lose it I get the "Cannnot connect for an unknown reason" pop up box. If I clear it I can occassionally get the connection to then activate but usually I am having to cycle the phone radio within Comm Manager before it will go online. This is really annoying as if the box comes up it won't check for email till I OK the message and get the data connection working again.
I am using a T-Mob sim that worked fine in my Tytn II and checked all settings but all seems ok.
Could it be a faulty radio that keeps kicking me offline? Calls seem ok. I have dropped a few but have also had 30 min + calls so seems to be specific to data.

I had the same problem when i first got mine had to do 2 hard resets before it went away, after it returned again i just started using the energy rom and never looked back
Opera 9.7 beta
I tried installing the new Opera beta on the unlocked/unbranded Touch Pro 2 it either doesn't start getting stuck at the splash screen or it starts and then crashes after a click or two. I am unable to use it at all. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

Okay I am really starting to regret this phone as its being a pain. I have an ATT tilt2 on Rogers and settings all work.
On my Kaiser when an app needed the Data it would turn it on and all would be good. Then after a certain amt of time of non use it would disconnect the data. Is there a setting that allows the phone to turn on the data when its needed? It seems that its either on or off.
This leads me to the second issue. About 5 times a day I get a message that the connection failed. I can then go to the settings and turn on the data connection and the internet will work again. I have never turned it off nor do I have any programs that restrict it.
Lastly, I have a bunch of factory connections that I can not use as I am not on ATT's service plus a few I created when I was first setting up the phone. I can delete some of them in connection manager how do I get rid of them permanantly?
It seems to me that there is way less user configuration in 6.5 than in 6.1 yet thanks to ATT its 3 times as large. Can anyone suggest a work around for the Data on demand issue?

I use HD Tweak and it works fairly well. Because the hardware is a little different, not all of the settings translate, but the things that are common between both phones works fine. You can find the link on this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452505
Under section 6 (Data), there is a "Disconnect After", which I set for 2 minutes. Once the data is idle for 2 mins, it disconnects. The next time a program needs it again, the data connects again. Don't forget to soft reset after making changes.
Hope this helps
Okay got it working
Thanks its working now. I had installed that but there must have been somthing corrupt in my ROM as I was also unable to Harddpl it. I did two hard resets in a row, was able to flash then reistalled and now it seems to work fine.
Now if someone would make an app that uses different LED's for different notices similar to the Kaiser Notification app that was awsome.
I recently bought a new HTC s620(EXCA 100) phone with Windows Mobile 5.0. I have subscribed for internet thru a local GPRS carrier, everything works fine except my internet access. Initially everytime i access a web site (using IE) it works for about 4 mins max then gives a time out. It has worsened with time now i only browse for 30 secs and it times out.
I have tried:
An alternative browser (Skyfire) and this as well times out from time to time, so i have eliminated that the browser has the fault. My common sites are m.facebook.com and mobile.yahoo.com, which are secure site, but i even get the issue with non-secure sites.
A hard reset on the phone which has proved futile in rectifying the problem.
Reconfiguring the internet settings with my GPRS provider
I have also tried my sim card in another phone, this sim card worked to browse online with no issues. Then after hooked my phone onto my PC at work and browsed via the company’s LAN, I had no problem there either.
I can only conclude that my phone has the problem.
The errors I constantly get are:
- Alert..The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again later.
- Error.. Cannot connect. Verify you have network coverage and try again.
Thanx in advance… awaiting ur assistance.

You can try to update your rom to a more recent version.
Having the same problem here...
My Dash just started having the dame problem recently. And it's driving me bananas! I have tried everything EXCEPT flashing the Rom. I"m trying to not have to flash the Rom because it's always a major pain in the ass to do it...i always get the 3% error and get stuck in the loop of all the fixes, which without fail, DON'T work.
Anyway, does anyone have a work around for this that doesn't require flashing the Rom?
I had the same problem too with my Dash. What I did was go to my service provider's website and copy the settings for my phone. By default, using the Connection Setup of the Dash would configure the GPRS as it were inserted a postpaid SIM. Since I am on a prepaid service SIM, I had to manually change some of the access points (example: from www to http) as instructed by my provider's website. After that I had no problems connecting through either Internet Explorer or Opera Mini 5.

You shouldn't have any problem with flashing if you follow correctly the instructions error 270/3% while flashing
Hello
I have a strange problem with Wi-Fi in my rhodium. I have to wait about one minute to load any data from Internet (for example load google page in web browser). It heppens only after i soft reset or switch on rhodium. I enable Wi-Fi and then try to load google or something other - I wait about minute to load page. After that everything works fine. If i switch off Wi-Fi and switch on again it also works good. My problem heppens only after fresh wi-fi start after reset. It heppens at all web browsers and others applications. I tried also hard reset. I have stock rom 6.1. Someone can help me? I have no idea :/

Does this only happen with a single wifi location (i.e. your home), or anywhere you use wifi?
If this is related to your home wifi, you might be able to sign into your router's management portal page and watch to see if the router shows an active connection with your TP2 as soon as the phone says it's connected, or if there's a delay there..
I didn't check it with other location than my home network - becouse I don't switch off my pda when im outside, but i will try it Today i rebooted my router and pda and then turned on wi-fi on pda. After that.. wi-fi worked without wait, i repeated it 3 times and it works lol. Router see connection of pda without delay. I have no idea now what it is but im happy that it works now. I reboot my router often so i dont think that it could be a router problem which disappear after reboot, but time will show. I will write if this problem comes again.
I have a annoying problem with the inbuilt Google Talk app on my Desire.
When I turn the screen off Google Talk disconnects from the server and I don't receive any new messages until I turn the screen back on. Google Talk displays a message saying "Lost connection to server. Messages will be sent when online".
I have "always-on mobile data" active in my network settings. Have tried to disable the automatic away status and even resetting the phone to no avail. I have also created a new Google account and that hasn't helped either.
I use my phone on the Aussie 3 network. Can anyone else with Desire on the Aussie 3 network tell me whether or not theirs is doing the same? Also my Desire is the Aussie Telstra branded one.
Just to note the only way I can use Google Talk properly is if I use eBuddy. eBuddy does not disconnect when the screen is off.
Hi danielhtc,
How did you go with solving this problem?
I too have a HTC Desire and use the 3 network in Brisbane. All was working fine with Google Talk up to a few weeks ago when I started noticing that I would just loose connection. Not sure if the problem started immediately after the Froyo update, I wish I paid more attention now.
Using the GTalk Service App from the market I see that I'm loosing connection all the time. At first it appeared to be random, and know it is almost everytime the phone screen locks.
I spent hours trawling the net and still have no answer. I have flushed the cached data for Talk, Factory reset the phone and even tried a new Gmail account with a factory reset of the phone, all to no avail.
I've talked with 3 and they calim they can't do anything to help me figure out what is going on as it not a 3 Australia supplied handset so no guarantees etc..
Strange thing is that it was working fine for months, and then all at a sudden problems... At the moment my money is that 3 has done something to their data network, however it still could be an issue with the phone. Unfortunately until I can try my account with a new Desire I wont know for certain.

I upgraded from my G1 to the new G2.
I am in the military and currently deployed to Iraq. I pay for wifi internet in my dorm. Using my Laptop or my G1 i am able to connect to a wifi service out here that i pay for. once i connect i pull up the browser and it will redirect me to the log in page for the server (where we have to enter a username and pass to allow acceses to the internet. without entering it we are only connected localy). when i use my G2 i can connect to the wifi hotspot no problem, it shows me "obtaining IP adress" and then says "connected to balad-hotspot" just like it would on my computer or G1. but when i pull up the browser it just goes to a "web page not available" for anything i type in. it wont automatically redirct me like both my laptop and G1 do. i even tried typing in the adress it pulls up on my computer when it loads the log in screen, but still shows me "web page not available" Does the G1 and G2 use the same browser? and if so why doesnt it redirect me? what else could cause this problem or fix it please?
with the new OTA update for wifi calling and sms messages you can see why i would love to have this issure fixed. also if i go to a free wifi area (such as a recreational center, where there is no log in neccessary, just connect and go) i have no problem connecting with my G2. so i know the wifi works with it. it just wont seem to redirect my to the log in page or allow it to come up.
firstly: thanks for what you do for our country.
try a different browser. i recommend dolphin HD
thank you!
hmm ok, ill try looking for that tomorrow. can be found in market?
Yes, it is in the market
Wow, they have WiFi at Balad now? Man, when I was there 3 years ago we had to wait in line for a computer! As the others have said, try using a different browser. I'm always switching between the default and Opera depending on what page I'm trying to access.
Oh yeah, if it's anything like Google Voice, the new update may not work for WiFi calling, depending on what country the IP address you snag is registered to. I had Google Voice on my G1, and as soon as I went to Europe and tried to use it on a WiFi hotspot, I got a message saying that Google Voice was not usable in the country I was in.
Stay safe and don't eat too much Taco Bell or Burger King!
haha ya, but its a HUGE rip off. way expensive and slow as can be. but its really our only option to get interent in dorm so im a sucker and bought it.
and for the goodle voice, hmmm i have it on my laptop and it works with this internet. dont know if it will be different with G2 but we shall see.
I tried Dolphine HD and Opera and still having the same issue. it only ever pulls up "web page cannot be displayed" The Internet guys out here said it was my browser. i confirmed with tmo that the browser is the same for the G1 and the G2. yet it works with G1 and not G2. and still wont work with any of the new browsers. Im stuck and this blows!!!
