The HD7 marketplace has been a pain for me all night, kept locking up or kicking me to the front screen. Zune was also problematic.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Hi, yes i have the same problem, sometimes marketplace lock up and its not possible to start him and its still kicking me to the home screen. Then it helps only to turn off and on the mobile, what i will give for a task manager to close the application.
Been problem free since I got the phone on Saturday. Marketplace and Zune have been perfect.
Had this last night. Would start downloading something then hit back.
Black screen nothing happens. Hit HOME then back into Market and it just dumps me back out.
Had to power cycle to get it working again.
Seems problamatic.

yeah same issues, restart seems the only way to clear it - and agree a task manager would be pretty handy
Same issue here..... In between the app list scrolling and loading, it just locks up.. After i toggle my screen on and off to get back to the homescreen, it will refuse to load back up along with the zune app.... Very fustrating. Restart fixes it but its a real pain
Same here, It seems to lock up specially if you scroll to fast thru the lists. I have to do a restart in order to get in the market again.
The Marketplace seems to crap out when you exit out of it abruptly. Def needs a fix. Searching is also a pain.

Maybe we can start a sticky thread about applications that are not working right on the Eris. I don't mean apps that are designed for another version of Android, just apps that don't work for one reason or another(this could include apps that keep force closing).
Pandora can cause your phone to reset your phone then cause major force closes which require a factory reset to fix. It's not every time but it happens to me
PDANet force closes alot. And, brings my laptops internet with it. Sad days.
Grooveshark has the habit of not downloading music to play while on mobile network. It will try, fail, and wait for you to pause and play it again.
I had an odd problem the other day: when I rotated my phone to landscape the screen would fade to black as it was being rotated. Found this out by trying to use camera and had to do a factory reset in the options menu. Big pain in the ASS. Never had so many problems with my G1 or MT3G. Come-on HTC get the Eris together, this is not the only problem I have had either.
Iheartradio once in a while force closes. Also, not sure if this is an issue of the Eris(due to 3G connection issue not fully fixed), or an issue of the software, but certain stations cause my Eris to freeze a second and the won't work(I never been able to connect to a few stations).
For me it was Task Panel. After I did the manual update, every time I exited task panel, I got stuck on HTC screen for a while. I had HTC sense, HTC touch input, and thing needing to run on Ignore list, so I know they were not killed by task panel. Finally I deleted it and am fine....although am itchin to keep checking my memory
Ok lets say i am in yahoo (dowloaded offical app not the pre-installed at&t IM app). I will finish what i am doing in yahoo, leave it running and return to the HOME screen. A few minutes later (after receiving no messages) I wake up my phone & it is yahoo! It shold still be at the HOME screen as this is the last thing that was open before sleep mode. This also happens randomly with my text and call log. I will make a call and hang up. Phone times out in 15 seconds and is left on the home screen. I wake it up and my list of calls is on the display....this should NOT BE! Text messages show up after the wake up some times as well. Additionally I am on my 3rd captivate with a brand new sim card and I will be on the phone for 5 minutes in a COMPLETE singnal area and my call will not just "drop" it's almost like the entire phone app disables and I lose all signal for 10 seconds & it regains and the screen blanks out. What gives??!!! I am using task manager and I have the "phone" ignored as proccess that it should not auto-kill so I do not know! Any help with any of these issues will be appreciated!
I would uninstall task manager first to make sure it's not the problem. If its still happening keep uninstalling apps one at a time until you get back to the factory loadout.
My thinking is that if this is your third phone then it's most likely a software issue. I haven't seen anything around the forums about similar problems out of the door so I have to think its something you've modified or an app that is causing the issue.
The only alternative i can think of would be to start reading up on each app you've installed to see I'd they've been tested on the captivate.
Good luck

Hey, has anyone experienced the marketplace crashing?
Sometimes when I am in the marketplace, scrolling through it, it freezes & after about 30 secs. it closes down & brings me back to the dashboard. After that, I try to get back in the marketplace & the loading screen comes up but then it brings me back to the dashboard. I cannot access the marketplace until I power off/on my phone.
Anyone else experience this?

Yeah, me too. It's a known and common issue. MS will likely be addressing it in the January update...lets hope so.
Oh, okay. Lol, I should have checked the common issues first before posting this. Thought it was only me!
Thanks!
i have exact the same problem! maybe can someone report the same problem and have done update rom and the problem is over?
Count a "me too" on this one. Has happened multiple times, using eiher WiFi or 3G, seems to happen more often when I am "aggressively surfing" or scrolling around a lot in the marketplace. Have found no solution for it except to reboot
Note: I just blogged about it and planning on posting on few Googler's twitter to see if we can get some attention to fix these issues, if they already haven't started looking in to these! If you are interested, please visit "Is the latest Gingerbread (Android 2.3.3) OTA update for Nexus One buggy? "and share your experience with Android 2.3.3 on your NexusOne's the Android team can get a bigger picture of these issues! More the merrier!
By now, I have reset to factory default couple of times but still after about 50hrs of usage my Nexus One starts acting freaky! Performance slows down, launching apps gives me black screen, lock screen freezes until I receive a call and not answer it and finally forcing me to reboot the phone.
Is anyone else aware of these issues or experiencing these issues?
I've had a few, repeated issues since upgrading to Gingerbread:
The stock messaging application will sometimes crash after sending a text message. The message gets sent, but the program closes out and returns me to the home screen. When I try to get back into the app, it animates like it is opening, animates like its closing and then gives me an error message about it not responding. I have found the only way to get rid of this is to reboot the phone.
Occasionally, all of the items - icons, widgets, etc - will disappear from the home screen. All I can see is my background image (just a plain JPEG, nothing animated) and cant get anything else to happen. I've tried to give it a few minutes (coming from Windows Mobile, I've learned to be patient) but it never came back. As expected, only a full reboot of the phone fixed the problem.
I've been having strange WiFi and data connection problems. Sometimes when connecting to WiFi it takes several minutes to establish a working connection; however most times it is pretty instant. The data connection will sometimes completely drop out and not come back on its own - even in areas with known good signal (I'm on AT&T, insert jokes here). Again, the best solution I've found is a full reboot.
I have heard some reports from friends that they have experienced issues with Exchange support after the upgrade, but I haven't seen it personally. Other than those above issues (which are very annoying) Gingerbread is has been OK. As I like to tell everyone, I'm sure glad my phone makes a cool TV of animation but can't seem to want to send text messages... Thanks Google?

You are right, I've been having those home screen issues as well, though my wifi connectivity seems to be fine so far.

I can confirm Gingerbread on my N1 facing similar problem. Riddled with bugs such as battery drain, Wifi, Exchange Server, Date format on Notification Bar, Awake forever, just to name a few.
REverted back to 2.2.2 More stable amid less 'cheeky' in term of UI.
Also had force close issues with launcher and other programs getting a black screen after about 2 days without a reboot. Got tired of it and went back to Froyo
I've had trackball notification issues. First it stopped working entirely. After a restore it now only blinks notifications if the screen is off. Once the screen is turned on (even if the phone isn't unlocked) it stops. If the screen is on when the notification is recieved nothing happens.
I'm experiencing battery drain that i believe is associated with maps and location services (the alogcat shows it checking in all the time!).
I've had the launcher become unresponsive to touch. You can use the trackball to navigate, its slow, and once you're inside an app it works fine. Need to restart.
I've had the blank keyboard show up and need to restart.
I'm probably going to switch back to 2.2.2 tonight...
Wow! The issue seems to have touched a lot of NexusOne's. I just blogged about it and planning on posting on few Googler's twitter to see if we can get some attention to fix these issues, if they already haven't started looking in to these!

I have also been affected by the "black screen" problem after about 48 hours uptime. Returning to the home screen shows just the wallpaper and no icons. Pressing the "Home" button worked for a while to bring back the icons, but eventually most apps started showing some black screens and I had to reboot to fix the problem. I'm sticking with Gingerbread 2.3.3 for now, but it is disturbing after the multi-week uptimes I was getting under FroYo 2.2.2.
Google Play Music is really screwy. It works for the most part but sometimes when opening up a new interface like clicking on an album or artist it crashes my phone. The phone will freeze and it wont recognize any touch input. Turning the screen off and back on will just bring up the frozen page, it doesn't even bring up the lock screen. I have to either pull the battery or if i let it sit for a few minutes it automatically reboots. It continues to play music while frozen though. I uninstalled the app and got rid off my xposed mods that interacted with the app and then reinstalled it. I still have the same problem though. Sometimes it happens every few hours but I have had it happen every few minutes sometimes. I'm using the newest version of the Xtreme ROM but no one else seems to have this issue.
