Anyone else having lots of force closes with this recently? Suspect it's the recent app revisions and not anything on the phone, but you never know.

I have been having problems for a few days now and have been wondering if there was something I did to cause this. Hopefully it gets adressed, may have to change widgets because of this.
Every day. It seems to be the only app that fcs on my phone
ditto for me as well.
had to uninstall it until i hear of an update that addresses the issue...
running stock kernel (did the same with birdman's test20, and JT's OC and stock clock voodoo kernel's as well.)
no task manager, and using the blue breeze clean rom
I've been having FC issues with Beautiful Widgets for a couple weeks now. I, too, uninstalled it and will go back and try it every time there is an update.
Kind of unfortunate, liked the weather.
Weather Channel and Weatherbug don't cut it, at all.
Dunno what changed but I haven't had another fc. Running birdmans kernel and bunny's magic rom

I have had the exact opposite experience with BW. With Voodoo and Birdman's kernel, BW would FC at least 3 times a day. It would also play havoc with noLED when a notification would come to the phone. BW would FC and i couldn't get to the notification for about 30 seconds. While in my car dock it would do it 5 or more times during a 5-6 hour road trip. I will caveat that by saying that along with BW, several other apps would FC when using my car dock and having the Voodoo and/or Birdman's kernel installed.
I went back to the stock kernel and all seems well for the past 3 days.
I've had FC issues for a couple weeks with BW. Thought about uninstalling it several times but really love having it on my home screen. I'm presently running Dirk's LV 1000 Vodoo kernel and have only had a couple FCs over the last few days.
I have FC notifications at least once or twice a day, but i hit the force close button and it doesn't actually stop the widget or anything, I just continue on with my day.
I have not had any problems. I occasionally get a FC here or there. but it is not a common occurrence.
i ended up switching to weather & toggle widget. no where as good as beautiful widgets but it has an awesome htc skin, h7c
Are you guys running adw? Mine was doing the same switched to Zeam problems went away.

Guys,
I have recently started to have an issue with pulling the Notification Bar down.
Occasionally (and for no apparent reason) when I attempt to pull down the window it opens just a fraction with only the bottom grey part of the window showing.
No matter what I do I can not get it to open fully. The only course of action is to reboot the phone which then clears the problem.
Any ideas what is going on here?
I have also noticed this behaviour and wondered about it

Hello,
I get that as well from time to time. Only way to display the bar is to go in the main screen, press the menu button and sellect 'Notifications'.
Hope it will be fixed soon as it is really anoying bug.

Thanks for the tip... Forgot all about the Menu/Notification. I'll try it the next time it happens.
I have the same problem. I cannot, or only partially, pull down the notification bar. Menu -> notifications still works. It started 2 dags ago after i used Samsung's own RAM manager to clear level1 and level2 memory. First time I ever used this feature, and will also be the last. A reboot does not solve my issues.
Is there a way to clear notification bar cache, or the notification bar settings? This information must be stored somewhere, similar to that of other apps?
/edit
Yes, I also use launcher Pro.
On another note, after removing the battery when the phone was still on (so no proper shutdown) the problem disappeared.
hi,
could it be you guys are using launcher or launcher pro? I had the very same behaviour and installed adw launcher, wanted to compare those two anyway ... since I had installed adw launcher and used it the problem vanished ... so I assume its a problem of launcher pro ...

Ohh, give it time... If the little blighter has already been seen to happen there's a fair chance it will pop back up again right bang when you don't expect it.
I went well over a week without it myself then all of a sudden up it popped.

You mean you had the phone connected to a charger, otherwise it would simply reboot.
Only got to experience this once after 2.2 update. No apparent in 2.1. Here are my other observations. It does not pull down on portrait, but does on landscape. I am also using Launcher Pro, not sure if same thing happens if I am on TwLauncher. I installed z4mod lag fix thinking this has something to do with Samsung's programming. Haven't encountered it since. I would die if I would. LOL.
I just noticed that even after the z4mod lag fix, my Galaxy S is still not top notch in snappiness--lags from time to time, but way worst before the lag fix, phone was bordering useless due to how many times it froze. Kinda of irritating seeing that my X10, a much cheaper and technologically lesser phone, does not have this problem. I hope Samsung gets their act together as this phone has so much potential.
I have the same issue but I am on stock froyo, no lag fix or root. looks like a bug

I had the same problem with my galaxy s untill i uninstalled the Juicedefender app. Now it works great with no problem whatsoever (i use laucher pro).
I encounter the same issue once in a while, on stock froyo official update. Using launcher pro and zeam. Read somewhere that some apps that appear on the notification bar may cause the issue, so I've uninstalled them. Mines sticks whether in portrait or landscape format, and I believe after a notification appears. Shutting off and turning on doesn't always help but the problem usually goes away after a few days.

Don't forget hitting Menu and selecting Notifications will bring the Notification window down.

Unfortunately I have done it multiple times and continue to have the issue.
Read the reviews. Everyone said it sucks. Granted most of those people dont know how to operate a phone. I installed ran fine, just drained my battery in like 2 hours, with the status bar temp thing, so its gone now.

That's why I don't allow programs to run in the background and give me "updates". If I want to see the weather I'll pull up the program.
I pulled a noob and just created my own thread about the same problem... oops!
I've been having the same problem, it also happens with Shazaam. I have to delete and reinstall both every time I reboot the phone.
Talk about pulling a noob, I responded to your post not realizing you asked for it to be deleted! Here was my response to your post:
I also have this issue with both WeatherBug Elite and Shazam Encore. I actually uninstalled Shazam (at the time I noticed it) because I installed SoundHound Infinity.
However, I just manually rebooted my phone and, yes, my WeatherBug Elite came back with the error (after re-installing and setting it up).
I tested my other Amazon apps (Airport Mania: First Flight, Angry Birds Rio, Angry Birds Seasons, Diner Dash 2, Doodle Jump, Flight Control, Fruit Ninja, SoundHound Infinity, and Talking Tom Cat) and it's only the WeatherBug Elite and Shazam Encore.
Something is going on with the rebooting for just those two apps. I can't believe it's an Amazon specific thing.
I'm running a Droid X with Liberty 1.5 ROM.
Hmm rebooted and got the same issue... interesting. Ill try deleting app data and using TiBackup the next time after that.
In Amazon app store you can send issues to the developers.. i sent them this issue. Hopefully more users do the same and we get an update.

What was weird is that it alerted in the taskbar just fine.

Doing a little research with a few people here (with Droid X's) is that it only happens on my phone.
The difference between mine and the others is that I'm running a custom ROM (Liberty 1.5).
It works fine for my Droid X friends that 1) is stock and 2) rooted, but stock ROM.
So, for me, it looks like there is something with the app and the fact that I'm running a custom ROM.
I too experienced fc on weather bug and shazam on Phoenix Ultimate and current rom Unleashed. May be it's an issue with the app itself. Other than those 2 apps, all works without any issues.

I was having an issue where Weatherbug Elite would say I had to enable one of the location services (GPS or Network location) even though I leave network locating on. I tried clearing the app cache by going to menu>settings>applications>manage applications, hit the ALL tab at the top, go down to Weatherbug Elite and hit Clear Data. This cleared up my problem. Maybe it'll help yours.
I have the same problem. Everything else works fine but this thing is the Devil. I cannot get it to work on my EVO. I have tried everything. I mean everything and now I'm more confused then an Amish Electrician.
Hey guys.
I've had this issue with YouTube being unresponsive in portrait mode after going to the main menu after I've watched a video. Hasn't bothered me because I'd just go to landscape to choose the video I wanted.
Today its now gotten worse. After a random xda force close, the shortcut on the homescreen isn't working. Every other shortcut works without issue though. Deleted and re-added the shortcut isn't working. Neither is an uninstall/reinstall. Its also spread to a few other apps.
Anyone encountered this before?
Just a few details:
Overcome 1.4.3 - Hevent upgraded yet, might later to see if the issue continues.
OC 1.4ghz
Nothing strange has happened prior to these random issues (no drops, rom flashes etc)
Sent from inside a whale.
The new xda app did the same to me after it updated itself, so I went to titanium, deleted the new version, then reinstalled the old from backup. No issues since.
Youtube has always had a mind of it's own, whether it's changing orientation, or even playing. Patience is all I can suggest there.
I had a similar problem (somewhat sporadic) and after the overcome 1.6 I don't notice it any more. although it's early days
I'm having similar issues with the keyboard - regardless of the type - stock or purchased - they lag or do not rwspond and all randomly

Clear the youtube data (wipe it from applications). Always helps me with youtube quirkiness.

Have you tried going down to 1.2ghz instead of 1.4? The FC's could be happening when it peaks 1.4ghz and doesn't like it. *shrug*
Only thing similar I've experienced is sometimes the capacitive buttons don't respond, but it's totally random and usually gets fixed if I hit any other button (even one of the other capacitives)
Amiga, is there any chance all your cavorting with gingerbread is a cause?
Its not force closing, it doesn't respond when its in portrait, if I switch to landscape everything is fine.. Really struggling to figure this out. And I've tried going back to stock (dissabling setcpu) and it still happens.

If you are using Google as your weather source try changing to Accuweather. It seems Google is blocking to many requests from the same I.P. address and since your carrier often looks like 1 I.P. it may be blocking your update.

Love the new ROM, but Market only works/installs apps through browser is there gonna be an actual market app with an icon?
My Market Icon
I installed [ROM][RC2] HoneyStreak HD7 V1.5 (3.1) and the Market icon was there because I downloaded from the market. The next time after I rebooted, I lost the Market icon. It disappeared and has never come back. I have also lost other icons. I'm not sure how to fix this. Everything worked good on RC1. I need help.
No icons and WiFi with HC
Since I've installed HC RC2, I keep losing my icons. Every time I start back up, I have to set up the WiFi again. This never happened before. Help!!!
Are you sure it's not just a display issue. Some of the icons get cut off on rc2. Try going to menu/settings/applications/manageapplications and scroll through to see if they're there.

My Icons are Back with RC3
After I installed RC3, all my missing Icons returned. I'm still testing but everything looks good so far. Compared to other tablets, this DS7 seems very fast.
I 've been having market issues too. Waiting to install hangs a lot but it works off and on... works more often than not so its not a complaint. Maybe my network. Also a couple reboots and no Bluetooth... not that I use it. Very happy with rc3.
