Do your Programs Close Automatically? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

Come in and discuss
do u guys have the same problem too?
give us a feedback
i use coreplayer to listen to my music.
but when i open a message and the coreplayer is left to play at the background, after a while the coreplayer exits itself. i takes a few seconds after i went into the messaging. or any other programs.
it seems like coreplayer wont run when other programs are running?
any idea on this guys?

Dude I've had that problem with CorePlayer for the last year and a half. It's the only reason I still use WM Player sometimes.
What happens is the program sees that the amount of memory it needs to operate isn't available and simply shuts down. Opera Mini 4.2 does the same exact thing.
It's annoying and the only solution I know of currently is to get a phone with more internal memory.

hmm.. well.. i have some ort of problem with the wm player.. the songs play just for 12 seconds and it will jump to the next song. every music is da same.. wonder whats the problem..
i didnt have problem last time when i was using boogs rom. i had opera mini with coreplayer running and the messaging program on. its basically 3 programs running at the same time. well tat rom had 30meg of free program memory after a fresh boot.
could be something to do with da rom?

well actually the memory is sufficient to run both messaging and coreplayer. theres still 10 megs left but it still shuts down on it own

I run into that with Media Player sometimes also. I have no freaking clue why.

i have the same problem as well sometimes not with coreplayer but pocket tunes or beejive i think typing in the messaging app uses a lot of memory probably also the reason why half the time im waiting for my hermes when im already done waiting to press send

hmm.. seems like.. everyone should have this problem eh.. shud we bring more people in to discuss?

Of course we should. I believe there is a registry fix so programs do not automatically change. I'll do a search in a little bit and see what I find.
Edit:
Appears someone with our beloved Hermes ran into this late 2008. I don't know if this will work in WM 6.5 but we can try. It's the 3rd (last) post in the link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=463388

well im using 6.1. haha.. hopefully it works. trying out now. thanks!

Good. Please give me a detailed map of where you find it in the registry as I'm lost in the maze.

the registry edit needs HTC task manager on.. but im not using it.. im on wktask eh..

well.. i installed HTC task manager now.
the programs dont kill themselves automatically anymore until it reaches below 9mb or memory.
but i couldnt find the registry key there..
the "EnableAutokill" isnt there.

In Advanced Config --> HTC Task Manager --> Auto Kill
Put it to disabled.
It solved the problem for me for years. But I don't know why in the last 6.5 versions I have the same problem with it disable. Or maybe it's another different problem....

did the advanced config thing..
programs dont close on its own already.. good fix eh.

WM6: Playing Music-stops after few seconds?

Hello, I have a 8525, and currently running Black 2.0. On all the ROMs WM6, I have an issue that whenever I try to play mp3 or videos through windows media player or even CorePlayer, they play for about 3-5 seconds then it stops. I didnt have this issue that i can recall when running WM5.
I am not even concerned about doing this through my BT headset yet, just simply trying to play media. This issue happens if the media is on the device or the storage card. I have searched the forums, and still have not found anything.
Any ideas?

Cant say ive ran into this issue AT ALL, what apps do you have running/installed??
(Could you update your sig and profile with your devices details and your country/provider?? helps ALOT)
Even when I do a fresh install of a new ROM, it does not matter. For example, I just flashed the new 'dutty' WM6 build (I did the premium version) and still no different. Even if I use the PocketPlayer Trial which is included in the ROM or WM Player. Does not matter if MP3 or AAC files. It is almost like I get a buffer overload or something?
Any ideas would be helpful....thanks in advance.
Have you tried flashing WM5 again and seeing what happens?
not yet, this was my next step if someone does not have any other ideas. I cant believe no one else has this isssue on WM6 and the 8525?? Hopefully, over the next few days, people will make some suggestions. If not, in the next few days, I will try flashing WM5 simply to test. Thanks
I had this problem.

When I first flashed one of the original Kyphur releases, there was a issue as to whether we should set the page pool memory to static 4mb or set it to 0mb and let the applications choose the amount of page pool memory needed. I set mine to 4mb and Media Player would not run. When I changed the registry key to 0mb to allow the applications to set page memory as needed, the problem went away. Not sure if this is your problem, but I see that someone has set memory page pool on this release to 4mb.

You could try deleting the MSMETADATA folder on your storage card/device and then rebuild your library. I always do this when WMP starts playing up and 9/10 it solves the problem.
S.K.

seriously low memory issues after upgrading to WM6

while on WM5 my free memory never really went below 10 M , even with several programs running.
loaded the new generic WM6 to my generic s620 and while it's nice looking, i'm having serious RAM problems. after a clean boot, free memory is around 18 M.
BUT, having a couple apps open like calendar, messaging, msn, it suddenly drops to only 2 MB available! right now, as I'm typing this it has 1,100K free ram and i have skype and IE open, everything else is closed. yes, ie cache is clean.
i did install voice command and at first suspected it for this sh*t but after disabling (removed from startup).
any ideas?
thx
Greg
Try uninstalling Skype and VoiceCommand for a few days, see how it runs then.
IE will also eat ram and not give it back until it is killed. I always remember to use celetask to close it after i'm done using it.

Talking about kill process, what's the best task manager available for smartphone?
I don't know celetask but I'll give this a try.
The question is - does your device run slowly or not allow you to run applications? Or are you just worried about a small number?
I see the same thing on mine, but it nevers runs slow and I have never hit a 'no memory' problem.
I have calendar, inbox, tasks, contacts, phone history, IE, Communicator, MSN and File Explorer open.
I agree with the above post, IE is a hog and you need to kill it from time to time.
My s620 has been running the HTC official WM6 ROM since the day it was posted and I have rebooted once since then, and that was only because I shut it down for a long flight
Maybe I'm just not a 'power user'?
It's not slow but it kicks out some apps from time to time as there is not enough memory.
For example, when browsing with IE, Skype closes sometimes. That pisses me off.

That's normal behavior when system closes some apps for wiping memory, you should try to avoid big memory "eaters" and close some of them..
For me i always try to keep 3-4 apps opened and got no problems..

yep, I know this. My problem is that WM5 vs. WM6 --> 10 MB is missing "somewhere"....
I only have Messages and Skype running, everything else is closed. But when I launch IE and it kills Skype I get pissed!
I upgraded mine to wm6 and i have no idea whats wrong, it runs beyond slow! nothin running, and lag like no other! it gets so bad sometimes that i have to restart my phone, and to restart my phone i have to pull my micro sd because i guess it doesnt like 1gig sticks! how and what do i do to fix this! also i would re rom it but i just to want to have to go through the hassle of getting BBConnect working again!
Hmmm... doesn't make sense, as mine actually runs >a lot< faster. Is yours under warranty? Sounds like yours is defective, you should talk to your carrier about a replacement device

I am not using Skype, but gonna think Skype is very "hungry" for memory, for ex for me: when no apps started i have 15mb free, after IE and other 3-4 apps it's 5-6mb free and still no problems..

lag

Hi
I have my dash on 6.1
and after a while it starts to get laggy or really slow
any ideas what to do?
Off and On again
You can either restart as the phone tends to build up in the amount of programs being opened, or you can always click the tzones button and it will direct you to the task manager where u can close programs to make the phone less laggy...
Install (and then purchase) Celetask. Best darn task manager around and with its 'free memory' tool I can keep my dash at 18MB free program memory all day
You should also get SKTools, clean out the Notification Que once in a while.. that slows down the Dash as well.

Celetask does not need to be purchased as it comes with the new 6.1 rom remade by Ricky... version 24...
i have celetask and free memory but still not running that smooth
there have been times where the phone just locks up and ihave to pull the battery out.
any other ideas why?
running winmo6.1
can be due to the fact that my phone is actively sync to exchange server??

maybe cause it's actively synced to your gayness level, and it overloads the phone
jk, from my experience, whenever i install cabs, my phone ends up slowing down alot faster than a reflash without any cabs. maybe you could reflash and only install the cabs you need?
if not, then try restarting the phone often, cause its like those old computers we used to use back in the day where a restart was almost necessary every day
also, clearing the mass amounts of text messages (and deleting them from the trash) makes my dash faster

Agree just try restarting it once a day as well as clearing up the texts... Also run SKTools in order to clean up and free some bytes... You can find the link to download SKTools below in the programs for smartphone... Just download the lite version okay if you would like... I also have the other version but read the readme file for that version...

SKYFIRE New Version

This version open for public.
No need enter any email/password
Super fast, stable...
Yeah, I have been using this. Much faster than the previous version I was using. It even plays BBC IPlayer, a little jerky but amazing non the less. Shame they screwed up the logging in for Megaupload but all in all a good upgrade and by far the best browser on WM.
WHne I try to launch it is stucks on the screen:
LOCATIONG...
Version ...
Am then I have the MEMORY CRITICALLY LOW Error with the suggestion to close:
Skyfier or Phone
ANy clues???

Make sure nothing else is running (use something like wtask to close programs). You're low on memory, you could uninstall some stuff, get a lighter ROM?
Looks like its not that..
I got Errors when trying to use GPRS connection.
Over WiFi / AS it works like a charm..
Maciek
ps
My ROM is CRC 13.00 only with HTC Home
Make sure you dont have a proxy server set.. Skyfire uses its own, and my prevent it from connecting.
I never use any proxy... where shall I look for these settings...

Crashing
Keeps crashing on mine. have tried gizmodo.com only but that should be enough...
I've been using it for a little while now and find it quite fast and capable. It hasn't crashed on me once.
I did have to fix the proxy server setting, but other than that, I like it a lot.
The only thing I noticed is that it seems to use a lot of battery. I need to do some quantitative testing, I usually use Opera and it seems to use the battery much quicker than even the latest Opera, but I think my battery's on it's way out anyway, so it's hard to tell. Like I said, I'll have to try them with the same sites and conditions. I'll report back if I find anything helpful or conclusive.
Anyways, so far this seems to be a great browser. I've been a very staunch/die-hard Opera user/supporter for years and this is the first time I've found another browser I would even consider replacing it with. Good show. Thanks.
edit:
BTW it's an 8525, a HERM100 currently running CRC's latest stable rom 13.1 pre 6 or something. Anyway, great app. Thanks again.

Don't u think skyfire "EAT" Power too much, my x01ht only last 1.5 hrs if using it.
"To do, or not to do" That´s the question!
I´m using skyfire to see flashstreams. For all the other, i use opera mini!
Opera mini is very fast and this handling is easy.
In skyfire you must zooming the links, ...
Always and always the same procedures.
This is exhausting!
After installing the newest version or a server update by skyfire i have a new problem. in 1 minute reconnected my browser 32x. i have since 6 Month an account. everytime i don't have problems. if i use an older version, the the same problems.
are you have the same problems?
Thats the newest skyfire 8184

Thank you for the division.
Hey your most very welcome

new bee with a ? on the camra

so i got the tilt 2 (at&t) and some times when i go to use the camra i get an error says that there is to many programs running and asks if i want to shut some of them down . if i say yes it takes me to the task manager but there is nothing running so the camra will not work till i shut it off and resatart it . any ideas ? also on the opra browser is there any way to have more then two tabs open thanx for your help
Sounds like your ram is too high for the camera to work. Install the two attachments. From what I read about them, the phone sets aside a certain amount of ram for I think pictures. The dynamic proxy cab, fixes this problem by adjusting that amount to only what is needed at the time.
The no push internet cab will disable the pushed (is that the correct term?) bookmarks on your internet tab.
As for more tabs in Opera, do a search. I have seen a thread floating around here somewhere telling you how to add more tabs. I think it is in the registry settings.
I take no credit for the attached cabs. The website I got them from seems to no longer exist, so I can't exactly link you to them.
thank you for your help i will try that

You could also try using cleanram. Free app, and you can set it up to do it automatically at set intervals.
