Hello everyone, starting last night, my manilla.exe/Sense crashes any time Twitter tries to download new tweets (Using the Twitter client built into Sense). Sense closes and relaunches, no new Tweets are displayed. Happens with both a manual refresh or the automated Twitter refresh.
Thinking it was maybe something funky in my Twitter feed, I logged out of Twitter and logged into a secondary almost unused twitter, and ran into the same problem.
Any idea what is causing this?
My next step would be to delete the file the tweets are stored in, in case this has some how gotten corrupt. Any idea what file to delete, or where to find a menu command to do this? Logging out doesn't delete your old Tweets, just causes them to not be displayed.
I'm sure a hard reset would fix this, but I've got a ton of software I don't want to reinstall.
Running the Sprint version of the TP2, using the stock 6.5 ROM.
As I had the same problem, since today (manilla crashing) I started browsing the forum and found that others too thought peep could be the problem. This is how I came to your thread.
I don't have a solution, but it seems to me the problem has got something to do with some or other update...
When I close phone connection (boot and then don't enter pin-code) then everything keeps working great. Updating and downloading through WiFi. even Peep!
Very strange....
Thanks. Not sure what peep is, but I don't use that. I did find the Temp folder for Twitter, and deleted everything in that, didn't help.
I did see when I tried to reconnect that it processed two tweets before crashing (based on the images it downloaded into the Temp folder). So either Twitter changed something that's messing up the client, or there's another database/cache somewhere I haven't been able to locate that needs to be rebuilt.
Guess I'll try PocketTwit in the meantime.
HTC Peep is the built-in twitter app. If you disable autosync in peep everything runs smoothly. Twitter probably made some change in protocol or sth...
An other twitter app will have to do ;-)
Oh ok. Didn't see the name Peep anywhere, or on the .exe. Good to know. Even with auto turned off, it was still crashing. However, it looks like its a Twitter issue:
A known API issue is causing some clients to crash 1 hour ago
There is an issue with the API that is causing some clients to crash. A fix is being deployed now

Taken from their blog.
Twitter support says: problem solved!
Still not working for me, and its been about 50 minutes since they posted it was fixed to their status page. Peep still crashes on refresh, and Pocketwit refuses to show any updates.
Any updates on this? I'm still crashing this morning.

use sktools to clean the twitter-cache. works for me.
I got it working last night. Took about 3 hours from when they posted it had been fixed, for when the built-in Twitter client started working again without crashing.
PocketTwit refused to work until I deleted the account and recreated it.
Both are working today.
Mine is still crashing. Damnit.
Try going into the Temp folder on your phone's root, and deleting all the twitter db/cache files.

Perfect! Thanks!
I have a horrible feeling that when Twitter turn off the auth-ouath thing (http://countdowntooauth.com/) all the older phones who have a Sense tab that runs Twitter will stop working
Both my phones, HD2 stock rom and TD2 Energy rom, crashes on trying to update the twitter feed. Trying to delete the cache in \temp doesnt help. Strange. Maybe salemfox is correct, one does hope that HTC fixes Peep asap then...
Hey, my TD2 with Energy-Rom GTX 25 aug.. is working again!! Jippie! I did delete my accountsettings on the TD2 first ... But logged in now and no crashes anymore!!
I was right! Any idea is there's ANY fix for this? I doubt it, it would require a new manilla or at least us replacing some files (the ones with all the numbers in their names) in the Windows directory. It's happened on Android too...

Yup. This is frustrating. Not only does Peep not work with Oath, but neither does Pockettwit. Anyone know of any Windows Mobile Twitter clients (that are good) that work with Oath?
When peep stopped working because of the bad auth connection to twitter, on the upside it resolved my SOD problem. This is on windows mobile 6.5, after I already applied the htc patch for the sms memory leak. Unfortunately last night the phone automagically seemed to try to make contact again (i heard the typical message twirp sound) and truth be told this morning the tp2 once again slept the sleep of death. I just disabled the service for the time being but i would love to know how to remove peep altogether manually. Still not clear on that.
I've noticed lately that any app I download that has a live tile crashes when I try to run it. Any other app runs fine. I was curious that this might be a result of the 15 push app limit. So, I went thru all my apps that have live tiles, removed them from my start screen, and unchecked "live tile," "push notification" or whatever option they had. This did not fix the problem, even after a reboot. If i re-pin one of the old apps and enable live tile, they work just fine.
I'm wondering this is just a glitch with my phone, or whether wp7 doesn't have the ability to release the "hold" that an app has on one of the 15 available channels. Is anyone having this same experience?
Did you ever find a resolution for this other than a hard rest? I am experiencing the same problem and have also tried disabling all my notification apps. Im debating weather I should wait till NoDo and see if it fixes the problem before I hard reset.
On another note, is there any way or do any of my games data get saved when hard resetting? I really dont want to loose that saved data.
Thanks.

It's quite possible that the installed apps aren't handling the disabling of notifications correctly and clearing the channel. So if they've already registered a channel, they'll still count towards the 15.
Try uninstalling one of them, and check if that helps.
Incidentally, the apps shouldn't crash when they can't register a channel, they should catch the error and let you know. Let the developer know what's happening so they can fix it (don't do it via a review, try emailing them).

It definately seems like the apps are not releasing the channel properly. Is there any way to go into the registry and manually removed them? Also I have removed several of the apps that had Live Tilese enabled then disabled but I still cannot enable Live Tiles in new apps without receiving an error.
Edit: I went through and removed several other apps including one in which I was having issues on and off with live tiles. After uninstalling that app Live Tiles seems to be working on all my other apps. I'm not sure if the problem was the specific app or not but the issue appears to be cleared up. Thanks dgaust for the advise.
guys, i have 4 email live tile, HTC, Mo tweet, and i do not have any issues, i am using HD7.
It's not a problem with your phone, it's a problem in the app. The SDK launchs a exception when you are over 15. Write to the developper to fix this problem

The problem I as having was that I wasnt over the 15 limit, I was at something closer to 5-10 but some of my previous apps apparently had not removed themselves from the list when I disabled them.

Well none of the MS apps count towards the live tile limits. but even the you were no where near the 15 limit.
I didn't see a thread about any issues regarding post-Nodo forced update. I originally posted my issue, but have since resolved mine, but there are some out there with issues. Post them here, I'll try to keep main page updated w/ any options/suggestions for FIXES. Thanks

Nice. I guess it's a personal issue with my device. I've heard of people having this issue just in general, and sometimes a hard reset worked. I'm just afraid of going back to the original pre-pre-nodo settings. Would that be the case? or would a hard reset still have nodo update on it?
everything is working good for me as well....only app giving me problems is one of the theme color changers and just my luck is was my fav one...no problems with marketplace apps...
I just updated my Focus on AT&T. The only problem I've found is with the Zune software. I'm currently re-syncing my entire music collection back to the phone (since I had to remove a lot of content to get the install to go through), and after a random amount of time, the sync will stop. The error is that the USB connection has been removed, but it hasn't been touched.

Some of my live tiles have been blank in the past but rebooting fixed some, just opening the program from the tile fixed some, re-pinning fixed one and reinstalling fixed another.
Anybody notice that you make a phone call it no longer vibrates on connect? I really liked that... wonder if there's a way to bring it back...?
I played it safe and uninstalled all 3rd party apps, deleted all provxml files but left it dev unlocked as i did nodo update. Seems to have paid off cos it is still unlocked and sideloading is still possible.

QUite unnecessary if you would've followed the Prevent Relock instructions. I just left mine registry unlocked and updated to NoDo and my phone and all 3rd party apps are still functional. Even installed an XAP just to be sure.

10-4 there big dog. So, about this vibrate on connect issue...anybody got any ideas? Maybe it's a setting in the registry?
Posted this on the Omnia form but no replies....Screen resoluti1on on my Omnia is poorer for some web pages (specifically noticed the pictures on Bing are really banded but used to be crystal clear, WPCentral webpage also even more banded than it used to be).
Anyone else noticed this? was hoping there may be a firmware fix, but haven't found anything (was running XEN JK1 prior to the NoDo update).

woah, I just noticed the same thing, samsung focus here
also, when i attempt to access "find my phone" it gives me a "setting up find my phone..." dialog box with an ok button, when I hit the ok it goes back to my start screen
Fixed my issue
I said "F it" and did a hard reset, and, voila, after downloading all my 3rd party apps again, the live tiles are working. Didn't take long to set everything back up, as outlook had all of my contacts set up. It restored to factory settings, but with NoDo update
Yahoo! Issues
I installed NoDo Yesterday and this morning I went to check my e-mails however now I cant sync my e-mails with yahoo! anymore =S anyone else having the same problem? Or hopefully know how to fix it?
Nevermind fixed it myself apparently when it updated to NoDo Yahoo! figured it connecting was suspicious so I changed my password and all works now =) Thanks anyway!
I lost windows live calendar and contact sync. Even inside of Settings>email & accounts>Windows Live, I only have the checkbox to sync email. I tried adding another Windows Live account and that is able to sync both contacts and calendar. I am going to try to remove the original account and re-add it. Will post results shortly.
Edit: So you can't even delete the original Windows Live account you set your phone up with. I don't want to hard reset, but I will if I have to. Any other ideas?
I noticed after the Pre-NoDo Update that on the Lock Screen text is running off the screen instead of wrapping, so now it looks like utter **** in addition to being unreadable because my Calendar is filled with items that may start off the same, but the part that isn't hte same is off the screen. I'm 100% sure this was wrapping before that Pre-Update. Before it looked like this:
Calendar Item Line 1
Calendar Item Line 2
Calendar Location
Time
Now it looks like this:

Facebook and Weatherlive still not working. This sucks. The only time they update is when I manually launch the apps.
At times I think the live tiles get stuck for a day or two. This seems to be considerably less with Mango and Mango enabled apps, however.
I don't know if Facebook is working now, but it was yesterday.
WeatherLive has refused to automatically update since I installed it. I don't think the problem is on MS's end.

Well it's been 10 days and bth apps have been uninstalled twice. There my only two apps that I turn on live tiles for.
If you look at the thread posted by the OP you'll see comments that the problem is still present.
I have been experiencing issues with Live tiles for my Whatsapp and Facebook app for around 2 weeks now.
If you have too many apps using push notifications, they stop working for some reason - I can't remember what the limit is, but try turning off push notifications on some apps and see if that works.
seem to work decent for MS apps - but most others don't update worth a ****
Weather Live refused to automatically update the live tile. I have Hong Kong Weather installed and it can automatically update the live tile with the current weather together with the update time stamp. This is not OS issue but the application problem. Weather Live needs to study and push the update to the exisiting buyer.
This bug is the most annoying and happens 3 times a day minimum...
When I'm listening to Zune, after 10 or 15 minutes the music will stop and the device wll freeze.

It's an HTC bug, not a Mango bug. The sound enhancer is the culprit, have you updated it? Once I updated it, I disabled all it's features, restarted the phone, and reenabled it, no issues. I know that's a ***** of a bug, but it isn't Microsoft's fault, it's HTC's.

No problem, I hope that's your issue and it fixes the problem. When you update sound enhancer, it'll be in the Settings page and not a standalone app anymore, in case you can't find it.
I uninstalled the sound enhancer app like 2 weeks ago hoping that it would solve the problem. Well, it didn't. The phone freezes every time I play songs with shuffle enabled. I have an HTC Mozart and I'd like to install the app Sound Enhancer again (if it doesn't solve the problem I'd rather have it installed!). Does anyone know how I can install it??? I isn't in the HTC Hub or in the HTC Apps section in the Marketplace. I don't wanna have to restore the phone because I have saved lots of data since I updated to Mango! Any help, please?

Not sure what would cause it then. I know I had the problem, it was the most annoying thing since I download all of my music through the Zune Marketplace and shuffle throughout the day.
And it isn't in the marketplace? Seriously? Lol... I guess it still had issues. I'm glad I reinstalled it when I did.

Remember to click the "me too" button to keep the pressure on HTC/MS to fix this soon.
I had this problem during the beta mango and have also had it now I'm using the "proper" version.
It will always happen to me if I sync any songs to my phone at a lower bit rate than they are on my pc. They are all MP3's on my pc at 320 kbs. If I sync them directly I have no problems, as soon as I try and lower the quality then it will freeze at the end of a song.
I have put 32gb memory in my phone so at 320 kbps I can still have quite a bit of music on my phone, but I'd like the option to lower the quality and have more without it breaking.
Green Samot -
Try turning off Zune desktop audio conversion before you sync your MP3s (Settings->Phone->Conversion Settings).
In my tests MP3 files play OK as long at they are not converted by the Zune sync software.
I only have problems with tracks encoded with WMA 9.2 or later.

Sorry, but this is a completely unacceptable suggestion. Performing a hard reset destroys any saved SMS, any game saves, app settings, system settings, email account setup, and all installed apps. And before anyone tries to suggest it, connecting to Zune after a hard reset does not reinstall all apps, only the most recent ones. Plus, if I recently installed and then uninstalled an app, Zune tries to reinstall it again.
I refuse to go through that much inconvenience just to correct someone else's incompetence. The last time I had to go through a hard reset, it took over three hours to get my phone back to where it was, and even then all of my SMS and game saves were lost.
If Microsoft offered the ability to save/restore SMS, and to back up system/app settings and game saves, and the ability to review my marketplace history, and select the apps I want to reinstall after a reset, then it would be acceptable.
As it is now, however, no way. Not gonna happen. If they can't fix these issues without requiring a hard reset or provide the missing tools so that recovering from a hard reset isn't such a nightmare, they will lose customers.

Well you can either spend just 3 hours to make a fresh hard reset or you can wait weeks or even months for a fix, it's your decision. You can copy your most important sms to a word document and upload it to SkyDrive. It's just a recommendation.

Correction: you can spend three (or more) hours on the slim hope that it will improve some of the issues, with no guarantee that it will. No thanks. And copying SMS to a Word document is probably the stupidest "solution" I think I have ever heard. It is tedious, time-consuming, and doesn't offer any ability to restore or transfer them.
