My Droid 2 freezes when im Texting

Hello my droid 2 freezes up only when I am texting I need help?

THIS ISSUE IS ALL OVER THIS BOARD.  THIS IS MY RESPONSE TO SAME QUESTION FROM ANOTHER PERSON:
The locking up while typing text or emails and throwing you out to the internet or wherever was caused by the software update in Sept 2011.  My phone was perfectly fine until this update - absolutely NO problems.   I have had this issue on 3 phones since then (VERIZON would send me new phones because they thought it was a phone problem) - IT IS NOT THE PHONE!  They replace it and it happens in another 4-6 weeks.  "Clearing the Cache" / clearing data works for awhile then you have to clear it again or do another "fix".  This is not a $9.99 phone - I should not have to clear anything but maybe my emails every 4-6 weeks and this was not a problem till they forced the software update on us!  I asked both Verizon and Motorola to restore my phone to the previous software and they refused to do this.
I honestly cannot believe that  if Verizon has been having this problem since Sept that they are still giving answers like the one from AnthonyTA !  They did a factory reset on my 2nd droid 2 and all it did was cause me work to reinstall eveything.  The problems came back 6 wks later.  They have records of all the times I have called (phone has had this problem about once a month since Sept) and the fixes they have tried - doesn't anyone look into this stuff?!
(I am not using any third party messaging or keyboard applications on my device as AnthonyTA mentioned - it is pretty much as they sold it to me.)
I was only able to text if I didn't leave a space between my words - IJustCapitalizedTheFirstLetterOfEachWord - but if I accidentally hit the space bar I was screwed - it would lock up! This has happened so many times since Sept that my family and friends now know when my phone is messing up again by my texts - time to call Verizon!!!
My recommendation - keep a record of all your calls with Verizon - dates, times, length of phone call, who you talked to, etc.  Do NOT leave them alone till your phone is working correctly...do not settle.  I used to LOVE my phone - now I just hate Motorola!  Verizon should be pushing Motorola to fix this!!!  Motorola was NO help after over an hour and a half on the phone (with numerous people from the Philippines & FLA).  They said they had no issues with the Droid 2!  Huh?  Do they read the internet or communicate with Verizon?!?!  Good luck!

  • Program freezes when adding text to clip

    Hi,
    I have sent a 40 minute slideshow to PE7. I am splitting the slide show at various points and inserting short video clips. After having added text to both photos and video two or three times, I now find that the program freezes when I either try to add further text or even if I try to edit previously inserted text.
    Has anyone a solution to this please?
    Thanks
    Jim
    P.S. the reason I am adding video to the slide show and not the other way around is that I like the pan and zoom facility of the slide show which is not available as a transition in PE7.
    Apparently I cannot add video clips to slide shows in PSE 7 - or at least not more than 5 seconds of video at a time.

    Hi, Thanks for you reply.
    The photos are between 1 to 3 MB each if thats any help, My Sony Handycam was set to 16:9 format but I can't select this in Project preferences which seems fixed at 4:3. The point is that I have used photos of this size in a project containing both photos and video previously without problems. I have not tried to splice video footage into an imported slide show before.
    I will investigate further later.
    Thanks again

  • FrameMaker freezes when selecting text on Windows Vista

    FrameMaker freezes on Windows Vista (forcing me to kill the process). The problem occurs both on FrameMaker 7.1 and FrameMaker 8. It seems to occur when I'm selecting text though I can't seem to create a scenario that reliably duplicates the problem. I'm running on a Fujitsu lifebook with 4 GB of memory.
    I saw an earlier post in the archive but there didn't seem to be a resolution. Has anyone been able to solve this problem?
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Eric, did you ever find a fix for this? The same thing happens to me running FM v8 on Windows 7. Did installing all updates solve your problem?
    Thanks,

  • InDesign freezes when resizing text frames

    I've placed a Word document with lots of tables and other graphics, and when I try to resize a text frame, InDesign frequently freezes. I have to shut it down in Task Manager and restart, often losing a lot of work. This happened once before with a similar project from the same client. I thought maybe it was some odd corruption in that file, so I muscled through it, but here it is happening again. Anybody have this issue before and know how to resolve or prevent it?
    I'm working with CS6 in Windows 8.
    Thanks.
    ~Valerie

    First of all, ID CS6 has a auto-recovery feature, so when closing it in the task manager you should not loose a lot of work, but the one since the last auto-save.
    However, software is not prefect, so the one way to prevent it would be to place a PDF version of your Word file, making it uneditable.

  • Outlook 2010 freezes when pasting text from email into filename

    I use Microsoft Outlook 2010 (32-bit version), in a 64-bit computer (Dell laptop) using Windows 7 Enterprise, SP1.  (I work in a company and can't change what version of the Outlook program I am using.)  If I copy text out of an Outlook email,
    and then go to save the email by printing it to a PDF file using Adobe Acrobat X Professional, and I try to paste the copied text into the file name I am typing for the email being saved/"printed", then Outlook freezes on me.  I've
    noted that I can copy text from other programs (such as WordPerfect X3 or Adobe PDF files), and successfully paste them into the file name without Outlook freezing.  I can also copy text from an Outlook email, paste it as plain text into a WordPerfect
    X3 document, and then copy that same text again out of the WordPerfect X document, and I am able to successfully paste the text into the file name of the email I want to save without Outlook freezing (i.e., moving the text out of Outlook and then back
    again to Outlook somehow sanitized the text so it wouldn't freeze Outlook).  Note that my office switched from Windows XP to Windows 7 a few weeks ago, and I also received a clean installation of Office at that time.  This problem did not exist prior
    to the change to Windows 7.  Does anyone know what is causing the problem?  Is there some setting I need to change in Outlook?  (Maybe I had the Outlook setting correct in the old installation of Outlook, but the new Outlook installation wiped
    out my prior settings, and the new default setting recently installed is creating the problem?)

    Hi,
    First please make sure your Office is up-to-date.
    I suspect this may be related to some 3rd-party add-ins or the security software, first please run Outlook in Safe Mode to determine if 3rd-party add-ins are related:
    Press Win + R and type “outlook.exe /safe” in the blank box, then press Enter.
    If there’s no problem copying and pasting in Safe Mode, disable the suspicious add-ins to verify which add-ins caused this issue.
    Please also disable the anti-virus program temporarily to check if this makes a difference.

  • Photoshop CS4 freezes when adding text to box.

    Typing text into a rectangle box freezes Photoshop with the unclose-able error box "Could not complete your request because of a program error"

  • Keynote freezes when pasting text

    Keynote freezes every time I try to paste text into a text box, whether I use Command V, Edit>Paste, Edit>Paste-and-Match-Style.
    This happens whether I am copying normal text from Word or from an identical text box on the same slide.
    I've filed about a dozen bug reports in case someone at Apple actually reads them, but I'm getting pretty frustrated.
    Has anyone else had this problem?
    I'm using 4.0.3 on OSX 10.5.5 on a Mac Book Air.

    This happens to me about half the time. I can't figure it out.

  • PSE freezes when adding text - help

    I have a MAC and have installed PSE 11 successfully.  I'm working on a birthday project and everytime I try to add text, the whole thing freezes.  I force shut down as it's the only thing to get me out of it, and reboot, and it does it again, and again and again.  Please help.  Thanks.

    Actually, before doing all that, let's check PSE itself. Go to the editor preferences>general, click this button, and restart the editor:

  • Becomes really slow, almost freezes when i text a certain person!

    Hello everyone
    I just joined. I've had my blackberry 8330 for about 5 months now and there has only been one small, but very annoying problem with it.
    Whenever I text this one person (who also has verizon), or receive a text from them, my blackberry takes almost 3 minutes to "send" the message to them. The message gets sent but my screen stays stuck on the reply message screen. eventually it goes back to the main desktop, but by the time it does that, i have alreadhy received the person's text and the whole slow process starts again!
    if this makes sense to anyone, pleaseeeeeee help me
    thank you!!!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I had this exact problem on my phone except it only happened when i would receive a message from this particular person or reply to a message from this person. What I did to fix the problem is go to my address book, select the person, then click SMS this person. For some reason, sending the person a message by going through the address book instead of replying to a previous message fixed the problem completely for me. It still messes up once a month or so but is immediately resolved by this method every time. Let me know if this fixes the problem.

  • Indesign CS4 freezes when copying text to Word 2007

    I have a user that copies text from Indesign CS4 to Word 2007 documents.  She has Word 2007 open, then opens an InDesign file and copies the text.  She then clicks on the Word document and pastes the copied text.
    She is unable to go back to the Indesign file.  Clicking on InDesign on the toolbar does not activate the InDesign window.  The only open she has is to right-click and close InDesign.
    She has been doing this without any problems until approximately three weeks ago.
    Is this a known problem?  What is causing the conflict?

    The OS is XP SP3.  We are using Adobe Type Manager with Adobe fonts.  The only other application running was Outlook 2007.
    The user is out today but I will check if Alt Tab will cycle back.

  • Does anybones screen freeze when texting or using bbm?

    iv only had my 9300 for about 3 months and since day one the texting would freeze for about 5 seconds before it would allow me to type another letter and today its been a nightmare the screen freezes when im texting and using bbm for so long i have to take the battery out to turn it off. im not sure how to contact blackberry over this problem. its really annoying me.

    Sue,
    I actually installed new RAM - 2 GB, and the problem still seems to persist. It is on all the new movies we have imported and are attempting to edit. This all seems to have started when we went from iLife 05 to iLife 06. At that point, we did not have the added RAM, but now with the added RAM and I know we have 15-20 GB free on disk space, we are still having the screen freeze when playing back a scene or scenes we are trying to review after adding an effect or making audio changes, or just any change.
    I am still frustrated and I dont know what my options are as far as support or customer care. Can I go to a genius bar? Do I need to bring the machine to show them? Is there anywhere I can call to help? Would I call iLife support or hardware support?
    I am a windows guy and I am helping my kids and wife on this one, and everyone raves at how effortless and integrated a MAC is, but with this type of an issue I feel stuck and there is no good documentation or my searches never seem to product any decent results that even hint at helping. I have seen similar issues and heard about alot of issues with the MAC and trying to do the movie stuff, but that is what it is touted for?
    Give me some options and I will try anything.
    Are you an Apple employee or just a loyal user?

  • Keyboard freeze when texting in landscape mode

    I'm finding that my keyboard may freeze when texting in landscape mode. If I turn the phone upright, I can resume texting. If I type a few words and return to landscape mode, everything seems to work fine. This does not happen all of the time when texting in landscape mode...only on occasion. I have not had any other issues using the landscape keyboard in another application. Has anyone else had this issue? Any solutions? Using the iPhone 6 with iOS 8.

    Yep this is an ios8 issue. Never had it with ios7 or previous.
    This his is the most buggy iOS to date.
    Come on, Apple. Fix this.
    THis is with iphine 5 as well.

  • Help!iOS 7.3 its driving me crazy,it freeze when I use de zoom in texts what can o do?

    Help!Help!iOS 7.3 its driving me crazy,it freeze when I use de zoom in texts what can o do?

    I understand why you would think that, but logically it doesn't make sense. I can read and write to the ipod with windows explorer with no problems, so the flash drive seems to be ok. I can also load, read and play songs through Itunes 6 on the computer with no problems. The problems start in Itunes 7 and when the ipod is used as an ipod alone....not a drive. The diagnostic windows tell me the drive is fine and the battery is ok (just a little low on voltage) but hubby says not enough to worry about. If anything was wrong with the hardware I wouldn't be able to use it as a drive would I? Its almost as though the thing is "stuck" on the boot up window of "use Itunes to restore". I even tried to load rockbox. The software all loaded but I still got the itunes restore window on startup and thats as far as I can go. Another thing I noticed recently is I can't seem to turn the ipod off! I can reset it but it just "reboots". After the restore notice about 10 seconds later the whole screen will blank out. Also when I plug the ipod directly to the wall to charge, I also get the apple...then the itunes restore notice...but never a battery charge icon (like my classic 20gb)...is this normal? This nano was given to me - (Also, this is a first generation, but I posted in the second generation thread) Would a repartition work?
