Marketplace Hang my HD7

I noticed that if I scroll through Marketplace for apps, e.g. under All-New, after scrolling down for sometime, maybe 10 to 20 mins, sometimes shorter, my Marketplace app will hang. If I try to go back to Home screen and start the app again, it will not start.
Anyone encounter this problem?
I'm using HD7.
Thanks.

Hi Zard,
yes, this is a known issue/bug.

Thanks. Thought I was the only with that problem.

It happens on my HTC Surround as well, a simple reset corrects the issue.

[Q] Marketplace not loading

im wondering if anyone has seen this before, when ever i click on the marketplace or music + zune apps it goes to the loading screen but then eventually after a few seconds goes back to app list and does not enter the app. I rebooted the phone and worked for a little bit and then started doing this again.
btw, i am using a Focus, which i just got yesterday.

Known bug with WP7, only a reboot will fix it. One of the fixes we would like to see from MS ASAP. Please post your issue here http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsphone7/threads, maybe MS will eventually fix the glaring errors with the OS.

Youtube app hanging the entire phone with severe graphical corruption on screen.

Has it ever happened to you? It has happened to me a few times lately. It looks like a gpu failure to me, the screens just gets all f-ed up, with graphical corruption in places, but it only happened to me when using youtube, I never had any other app crash my phone like that (or crash my phone at all). After that happens, the hardware buttons still responds and the sound of the video I was watching continues to play (for a while, then it starts stuttering and dies), but the screen remains glitched and doesn't move. The only thing I can do when that happens is hard reset the phone with power + vol-up.

Happend too me2h ago, same thing, screen went gray. Had to do hard reset

I had this a few times also. Only way to fix it is with power+vol up reset.

Do you think this is some weird incompatibilty with our phone or does it happen to other phones too? I was looking through the comments (which have been mostly negative lately), many people complain about the app being slow and not loading video in a huge range of phones (from Galaxy SIII to old crappy phones), but none complains about crashing. Also, other than the random crashing (which is rare) it's working perfectly for me. I wonder what causes it.

Can't connect to camera

Hey guys!
So just as the subject reads, the phone from time to time can't connect to my camera and I just get a black screen. Switching between the front and back when this happens triggers the error message and tells me to send a diagnostic report to Google. One of the things I tried was to force close the camera process and still nothing. Only fix is to reboot the phone, but eventually in a day or two the camera will crash again.
Just to rule out any kind of corruption, I wiped the phone to factory settings via recovery and the phone still behaves like this. One of the apps I noticed does not play well with the phone is snapchat (current beta). The app is super laggy and wondering if this could cause the camera overall to eventually crash. Any ideas or thoughts are welcome!
Overall I'm kind if disappointed with the performance of the phone over several days. Upon reboot its quick and over a day or two the phone gets pretty sluggish, even locking up at times for a few seconds without being able to do anything. Sometimes exiting an app and going to the main screen takes a solid 5 to 10 seconds.

Yeah the camera app is very, very bugging. Really hoping there'll be an update that fixes the problems with that and 3rd party cameras.

I though I was the only one, the camera takes forever to open and bogs the whole system down, I just the l got the security updates and no camera bugs were addressed

Actually that's exactly the way my Nexus 4 behaved, which was the main reason I had to replace it now. Hope 5X won't do that, or I'd be pretty pissed off. I thought it was a hardware issue, but now according to what you write I suspect this might relate to some application installed.

I'll add myself to the list. Sometimes It doesn't even make picture, just get stuck and does nothing for a while, then for whatever reason it start shooting a sequence of pointless picture. Many times it take 2 pics in a row, like a not asked, not wanted crappy pointless multishot

Camera was completely fine for me until I got an OTA update 2 days ago and now its completely dog ****. Freezes for a while when I open the app, and crashes if I turn the phone to landscape.

I just rooted my phone and camera stopped working. Reset to default did nothing.
I'm on B29K. Do I need to downgrade?

How exactly did you root? And if you flashed a modified boot.img, which one fid you flash? Also, what does "reset to default" mean? Does this mean that you flashed the factory image for MMB29K?

camera crashing and not taking pictures

Completely stock. Out of nowhere today, the camera app has started crashing. Pressing the shutter or vol buttons does nothing, and no pictures are taken. I rebooted the phone and took two pictures and camera force closed immediately. If things were working properly there would still be at least two seconds before pressing shutter and a picture being taken. This phone SUCKS, it's the most disappointing Android experience I've had.

This started happening to my phone as well. I force stopped it, then rebooted and it works for days again. I notice it usually happens if I go from Camera on taking photos to screen off. A closer look shows that if the app is doing something such as changing rotation from landscape to portrait when you screen off, it goes completely bonkers. It's as if the sensors are locked in an orphaned process and can't be accessed. This is proven by launching another app that uses the camera and it'll do the same thing. Black screen loading the app.

this is happening all the time now, especially when i take many pictures in a short duration. the camera will go all black and then a random app will open, seriously. the stock camera app does this.

Do you guys have any Layers themes on?

i do not

Welcome to the club. This phone is a total lemon. Just waiting for the latest udpate to check if it fixes this issue. Its close to 5+ months now and google hasn't still fixed the issue so far.
I think i am done with the nexus line with this phone........
i have had nexus 4, 5 and now 5x.., and 5X is the most horrible in terms of lag/slowness. My N5, which is still own and use is much faster with the same set of apps.. when using / launching apps side-by-side.

why are so few people acknowledging this? moreover, why are so few people livid about it? i am! i can't open the ****ing share menu from any app without 3 seconds of lag. it's bull****. the android experience i want is simple: 1) nexus line so i don't have to wait for updates and deal with bloat, 2) no lag because it's 2016 and 3) a phone that's not sized like a ****ing tablet. i don't understand why i have to use a surfboard to get the higher end hardware. it's bull****.
