Problem with IExplorer - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

When i was using IE once, i tried to view it in full screen, by clicking on..... full screen. it went to full screen, but then i can't do anything with it! Each time IE is opened now, it goes automatically to fullscreen and i can't actually use it at all i have htc mobile.htc.com on the screen and that's it! No icons, nothing happens when i touch the screen
Has anyone else experienced this? and how can i fix it??
hope someone can help
thanks!

I don't use IE as Opera is much better, but mine does the same, apparently no way to exit full screen without hitting one of the hardware keys to get out of it completely!

so that means I can't resolve this?? and ie is totally unusable?????
i agree about opera being better tho, i wasn't really using ie much, but i just hate having something that i can't actually use at all!!!

Sorry I'm being a dumbass.
Was getting confused cause the WM6.5 ROM on my HD is different (automatic full screen with button in corner) and I've only had the TP2 a week!
Tap and hold while full screened in IE to get the menu, select full screen again to go back to normal windowed mode
Shows how much I use IE

well of course that was the simple thing to do and i didn't do it!!!! gahhhh!!!
thanks!!!!

Apps random minimize

Hello everybody,
today I have to ask if somebody has a solution for me
When I click sometimes on different apps just with the finger they minimze. I don't know why is there a special gesture or something? Its really strange..
FTouchFlo is disabled of course..
But maybe my device is just going to die
You know what, i have had that happen to me too!! Mine mostly happens when I press the centre key in the dpad, but i think it has happened one other time when i didnt use that key too.
I dont think its your device, might be something that has to do with WM6.1. Never had that happen in WM6.0.

This behavior is very strange..
I didn't noticed it with the dpad keys yet, just when pressing the touch screen somewhere.. It also seems to happen more often when the memory is very full or pressing on the right screen edge. Regards

This happens also to me When I am in the PIE, and making the scroll down in the Scrollbar and press the black right screen edge.

Well, didn't found any solution yet but will looking for..
I agree with ICE, it does happen to me when using touch screen also. Maybe its an alignment issue?
It is an alignment issue! I am having this too! Touch screen smoetimes thinks that you press upper corner of the screen! I think this is Windows Mobile problem but also it may be a hardware issue!

So I might be able to fix that when I align the screen again?
I have the same problem.. it does it every once in awhile.. so annoying

I guess early WM6.0 releases had some screen alignment issues, but the more i read, it is related to hardware issue...LOL
I have the same problem!!!
Never had screen alignment issues, but my screen has damages from stylus on the "X" button from pressing there and on the scroll bar from scrolling while surfing the internet, I think that is the cause of the problem with my device..
I must say it is really annoying and made me realize I will NEVER use stylus in my life..
Just my 2 cents..
I've noticed the same problem occasionally, and from memory it (maybe) happened a lot more on some of the early WM6.1 ROMs. I haven't noticed it for a while though.
Do you think its the same as in the wiki? HT646 on http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Problems
Where the right corner keeps touching. If you've got any xbutton installed, its bound to minimize. Some of the problems farther down link this to the screen heating up and eventually not working till it cools down.

Well it happens even in the morning when the phone is fully charged, and hasnt been used/touched/handled in over 8 hours, so I doubt its a heat issue.
Shamanix, are you saying this whole problem may be caused by the HTC X Button software?
Happens to me also but only since I switched to 6.1 ROM's
I also had this issue on 6.0.
Can't really believe that this is an hardware bug, maybe a special hermes "feature"
Yesterday, when I was scrolling over the edge I saw the x button going down *lol*
Would be interesting if kaiser users have the same problems.
No I am not saying it is because of X-Button software... I said that I have damaged my screen when I was pressing "X" and "OK" button with stylus in the top right corner and that I have damaged right part of the screen where the scroll bar is again with stylus while I was surfing the web and scrolling so now when I press over the damaged area ( right side of the screen ) I can see X button going down just like Pay said..
So my problem is in damaged screen...
You can`t see the damage, but you can feel it with the stylus...
i have apps closing in random occasions as well. it didn't happen before using wm6.0 but it happened on almost every wm6.1 rom i flashed. i try avoiding the htx x button so i don't think it's related to it.
Im on WM6 with ftouchflo enabled and x-button bind to close apps. Happens to me also sometimes A bit annoying but I think I'll manage.
There appear to be many issues concerning the screenpart of the Hermes. I am not suggesting that this problem actualy is one of them but you might have a closer look to the space between the screen and the plastic of the housing. My whitescreenissues and the screen alignmentissues many people suffer from are caused by the thin layer of foam that HTC sticks the screen to the housing with. I recently put some new foam/tape in between and it helped me with my whitescreen issues. In the beginning I put to much and at that time touching the top plastic parts caused all sorts of reactions normally caused by touching the screen,.
Just a thought...

HELP! QuickMenu doesn't show up and load is VERY SLOW

Since last night my t-mo TP2 has been really slowing loading up (this is AFTER "windows 6.1" green screen and "loading TF3D"....even if i touch the screen nothing moves. touch flow works fine after 5 min but Opera Mobile and other programs open very slow. screen rotation doesn't react and also parts of the screen image from previous pg remain when i go to a new program. By "quick menu", i mean the top right corner where u can get to the task manager (i do have this turned ON in my settings).
Can someone pls help me??
i really don't wanna do a hard reset so do i have any other options? THX.
okay, quick menu finally shows up after 15 min or so? it seems like everything is running smooth.
i hope this isn't normal cuz it happens to me every time i power off and turn it back on.
Eeep, I'll be watching this, I love QuickMenu! If ATT ever releases the TP2, that is..
damn no replies. i'm having the same problem with my sprint touch pro 2. loading where i can actually use and that will respond fairly quickly takes a good 5 min. fortunately, after everything seems to work fine but there are times i soft reset to clear everything and slow load, EVERYTIME.
can someone help? I have S2U2 and have tried EVERY combination of options, don't think it can be any of the other utilities I installed
QuickMenu works just exactly the way it's always worked for me on the Tilt.. I haven't ever seen it run slowly. I ran the older version at first, then installed the new version so I could increase the spacing to make it easier for finger poking, both worked just fine.
Not sure however if I used it with TF3D, I nuked that after a day. I suppose it's easy enough to switch, so I did, and still no trouble. I have it assigned to my Win key, if I want to launch the "honeycomb" I tap the Start Menu text. I use a bit of a combo of both. I don't really use any special settings, about all I set is to auto start, register win key, right arrow to close program, x button long press to close, don't mess with anything else.

TF3D launches at startup but have to tap screen to display home screen.

When I boot up after reset or power off, the homescreen displays top task bar, bottom soft keys, and displays "launching TouchFlo3D..." and then... nothing. The screen stays like this until I tap it, and then it displays the home screen. Anybody else seeing this?
Even when just switching it on from a while on standby, I get a black screen.
I press the home or start buttons, and the home screen comes on ...... when it feels like it
I have never got no one to answer a question on here good luck...

Does touching the screen make it start?
I know that not turning off TF3D before installing some cabs can make it behave oddly- TF3D restarts, fails to launch at boot, etc...
Mine does the same thing except its just a plain screen until I touch it then it says launching tflo
Might have something to do with locking the device with a PIN/password. Try to disable that and see if many of your problems go away (switching to home screen on coming out of sleep or turning the screen on when in call and taking the phone away from the ear etc).

It has something to do with the PIN lock code, you're right.. now we just need someone to look into this further who knows how to troubleshoot these issues from the back-end.
Bump for more answers!
-mak
so i've tried checking on/off Today/Item/TF3D, tried Flight Mode, and it still won't work. i'm talking like only 30-50% of the time it does work. and I never had PIN1 enabled!
i'm no programmer but it is conflicting with apps we install because TF3D works perfectly when the phone was fresh or hard-resetted. btw i'm using 6.1 Stock T-mobile

problem with IE

Hi guys,
I was fooling around with my TP2 and started IE to see how it compared to Opera. I opened the menu and choose/ticked "full screen" to have a good comparising view to Opera. Problem now is I cannot find a way to leave the full screen anymore. Does someone know how to end the full screen mode in IE??
thanks in advance. Kuzibri
No one yet? I cannot believe that nobody has a solution for tis problem.
I think there is an option in the context menu (press and hold anywhere on the page). I can't check for sure because the new IE in WM6.5 doesn't have a non-fullscreen mode anymore, so of course there's no option.
Thanks Enisoc, that did the trick! I have tried everything to achieve this (double tapping, etc), but never thought of this simple solution!! Thnx again.
In IE: Menu, Settings, View, Mobile. This ability is one of the reasons I prefer the IE browser.
XATAGuy, the problem of the full screen mode in IE was that you could not get into menu cause it wasn't there. Only after tap and hold on the screen anywhere one could choose to "kill" the full screen mode and get back the menu option.

Go Launcher help - screen shifting and contact

There appears to be NO means to contact the go launcher folks (just spent 30 minutes trying gave up)
anyway LOVE go launcher. problem is the main desktop has 5 screens you can swipe/slide whatever between.
the MIDDLE one is primary. you then have 2 left and 2 right.
for some reason I keep ENDING UP at the far right screen which is very annoying cause I then have to swipe left twice to get back to my main screen.
it seems totally random I will turn on the phone and I am on the extreme right screen.
I also notice if I press home I go home but if I press home a SECOND time it ALSO takes me to the far right screen.
anyway to change/stop this from happening?
Strange... I've been using GO launcher for some time and never had an issue like that. Bad install, maybe?
Not sure. Just installed calkins rom. installed go clean instead of from backup.
will see if it happens again. VERY annoying. SO FAR so good. in fact now home does just what it SHOULD do.
takes me to the center screen and if I hit it twice GOES to center screen if not on center screen.
hopefully it was just a hinky install.
alas like an idiot I did not backup my contacts so the 4 hours I spend attaching pictures and correct numbers and entries in my contacts. all that work POOF. what a moron.
also all my circle launcher backups I carefully made are GONE. I had assumed they were saved to SD but apparently not. what is the point of backups if they go away with the program ???
U can change ur home screen by going into preview and clicking on the home button

Don't want to change the home screen. I want to stop it from moving around
it appears it was a "bad install" or something corrupt.
I installed calkins rom today and clean installed a fresh download of go launcher ex and so far its been PERFECT.
and in fact home works as it should double tapping it takes me to the "center" home screen.
so must have just been a goofy install or a corrupt file or something.
my reply stands ur home screen was not set as the middle screen but the far right one that's why it always went to it and u had to scroll to the left

You know I was about to make a snarky reply of ok smart a$$ you show me the setting. I have been through the settings and there IS NO SETTING for such a function.
and I would have kind of been right. there is a flat out hidden in plain site setting for it I happened upon by accident.
a screen I have NEVER seen before. in fact first time I saw it I had no clue how I did or or how to make it do it again.
after some experimentation I found out if I "swipe up" (something I usually have assigned to a function but had no done so yet on this install) this NEW window appeared that I never saw before.
it have all 5 of my "screens" displayed in miniature and the home screen was "green" but I was not ON the home screen (only reason it stood out to me otherwise I would have ignored it)
and then it hits me. I bet whichever one is "green" is the one it defaults too. sure enough if I touch the house on one of the other "screens" IT became green.
sure enough it was the "default" now.
I have no idea how it got changed (maybe when I was reaching in my pocket or something??? because i had never seen that screen before and I can find NO means to "invoke" that screen THOUGH hold on that give me an idea.
HAHAHA sure enough if I goto "EDIT" from the soft menu it brings up the same miniature window display. I had never bothered with THAT either
Just assumed it was to EDIT the "dock bar" which I had no desire to do.
so I must have gotten into that screen at some point and changed the "default" and never even knew it
how funny. of course I canceled the aggravated post and waited till I got home (now) to reply. Just found out "edit" did it right now too
I guess I misunderstood your original post. It sounded like you had been able to get to your intended home screen with one click, but a second click was sending you elsewhere. Sorry, guess I overthought it.
thats what it was doing.
many times it was at right screen (boot up wake up etc..)
sometimes it would take to home but hitting again would goto right screen.
I am almost certain I somehow "changed" the default screen as "home" without knowing it.
when I do it on purpose now it behaves exactly the same way it seems.
at least its fixed now and if it does it again I know whats wrong
