Harshal 11 Report post Posted April 28, 2011 (edited) Have any of you been facing a problem of freezing randomly, since moving to EC05? I am facing this issue too often now, upto 1-2 times a day. Several times I have been left stranded not even able to open the dialer app. Yesterday while playing Angry Birds Seasons (ABS), the screen suddenly froze and the phone was non-respondent. The only option after these epidsodes is to remove the battery and re-insert. Damn annoying. I have also been noticing some lag while playing games, especially in ABS the intro music plays broken up. Had faced a similar problem in the past (on DK28) found the culprit then. It was the compass widget which was either a memory hog or processor hog. Removed it and ABS music became just fine. Have removed a tonne of apps since, still to no avail. Anyway to find out if any particular app is causing this or is it a gerenral problem with EC05?

ankurcshah 112 Report post Posted April 28, 2011 Sorry for the noob question,but how do I "register" the divx player? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rishisuri 16 Report post Posted April 28, 2011 Go to settings ,about phone, legal information, licence settings, divx registretion process, register. Write down the code. Go to your pc download divx player go to register new put the code , you will get a divx file save it on pc and transfer on sd card. Go to my files and select the file , it will run and your player will be registered. Same process has to be done on all or any divx compatible devices. Sorry for the noob question,but how do I "register" the divx player? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Harshal 11 Report post Posted April 29, 2011 Right, hence have switched back to FW. Now getting some skins too. The main problem I had with FW is that you can customize it only once. So if you want to use 2 or more instances of it in different places, you cannot customize each one to be different, or have different features. Any how, hopefully have caught the culprit causing those crashes. lets c... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Harshal 11 Report post Posted April 30, 2011 My domestic help got it from some street side vendor in Santacruz West market in Mumbai. I just bought for him the Samasung Smooth and asked him to get a cover for it. And he got himmself a neoprene for 20 bucks. I told him to find one for my Epic, assuming there is no chance (because of the size). And he got it for 20 bucks too. Will ask him to get a few more covers, if available. Once he gets them, will keep you guys updated. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Okay so the non responsive dialer has completely gone after I removed this app. One issue still remains, there is a crazy battery drain during 1 particular event: 1. When there is sync happenning AND 2. The internet connection is not available (i.e. Wifi is connected but internet is slow or non-responsive, say may be due to utorrent on the PC dominating the connection OR 3G is connected but data not responding) For example I lost 20% battery in 40 minutes right now. The other symptoms when this occurs are: A) The phone heats up considerably B.) Apps like Task Killer are non responsive, in the sense they open up, but don't list any running apps to kill C) Some apps are completely non-responsive D) Like I said the sync symbol is stuck in status bar The only remedy I have found is to remove the battery and replace.
