WebOS update 3.0.4 has messed up my TP!

I am pretty new  to the TP, but I was very  happy with  it until... They released the last update. Now there is huge last with almost everything I do now. (even typing  has a half to full second last after every key stroke. NO app sounds seem to work anymore, (simple clock, sleep sounds by RockY something, my card game, and even music player all no longer have sound, but web based stuff, like YouTube, or websites with sounds play, (although cuts in & out). Suggestions? Love this little thing and  want to get it working right again. Thanks!
Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

When I first installed the 3.0.4 update, things did not work properly, (slow and had random bugs)
I had to use the webos doctor to fix it.

  • New Update 10.3.1 has messed up My Blackberry Z10

    hi, im trying to find a way to fix my Z10, i just updated to the new OS yesterday and I am so frustrated I'm about to just give up on smartphones, i really dont need it anymore and Blackberry is so far behind it is unreal!  so since the update when i unlock my phone it will automatically zoom in..then its almost impossible to get it to zoom back out to the correct size to type or view anything. Also the sides of my touchscreen arnt working properly.. i can use the back key during texts... i have to use the "M" key then slide my finger over to hit backspace. This is my first and my last BLACKBERRY.. no aps have ever worked that i wanted ..anyway how can i switch back to my old OS? or what do i have to do to fix this? im going to end up just getting an iphone.. so if i dont find a fix.. im making a video and smashing my phone.. thanks for all the bullcrap!

    yes there is a current bug that makes the Picture Password not practical when the magnifying glass is activated. Hopefully this will be fixed soon.

  • I downloaded the iOS 7 update on my iPad 2 and I hate it! It has messed up many things.  Can I go back to iOS 6?

    I downloaded the iOS 7 update on my iPad 2 and I hate it! It has messed up many things.  Can I go back to iOS 6?

    Sorry but Apple doesn't support downgrading.
    There are a few things you can do to help change the appearance. You can go to settings, general, accessibility and adjust the contrast, text size, bold the text. You can also adjust the brightness in the control panel. Maybe this will make it a little better looking for you.

  • My Wishlist for WebOs Update 1.4.5 - ALL REASONABLE AND Somewhat EASY.

    I just bought a Palm Pre and I love it far more than any windows or blackberry phone I ever had and far more than my old iphone. Its also, in my opinion, more of a draw for me than the android is.
    And I am sure that even though I am posting this, many users have mentioned this and Palm is aware. But I figure I could voice my opinion and hopefully make these things more of a reality than not. Now basically the options I added would help me to work better with my Pre. But there are some items that just need to be there which are in almost all smartphones these days. I put two ** next to those items. The other stuff would just make my life easier as well as other peoples lives and would put the pre ahead of the competition. I know most of these can be used by adding patches. But its a hassle to have to add them and then remove them everytime an update comes along. So for now, I say go ahead with the planned 1.4.1 WebOS update. But I do think that by 1.4.5, it should have these features.
    So here goes:
    Contacts:
    *Support for LDAP Syncing
    *More than one photo
    *Add  videos of the person
    **Categories
    **Better search including the ability to search for categories or in general even in the notes.
    *An option to link Contacts to their spouses and children.
    **Add more options for anniversaries and dates and such and have it show up on the calendar automatically.
    *Ability to add a different video and or photo to each type of phone number.
    **Ability to Jump to a letter or category.
    **A sorting feature to sort by companies, phone number, last name, first name, address, etc....
    *Ability to add a middle name as well as a Maiden Name.
    *Ability to add more than one note and child.
    Calls:
    *Ability to customize what details are shown on the call screen, such as what phone number they are calling from, multiple photos or even a video of the person.
    **Ability to see Received calls, missed calls, placed calls along with a duration and timestamp. (I know some of these are there already).
    *Add a fast dialing system for the first digits 1 through 0. Basically you can assign a number to speed dial. Holding that button will allow the speed dial to dial automatically.
    **Before dialing from Missed calls or contacts, let it ask you if you want to call. Dont just call right away.
    Verizon Specific:
    **Support for Visual VoiceMail
    **VZ Navigator 5
    *Vcast Videos and music
    Calendar:
    **Ability to search calendar
    **Ability to see colors on month view.
    *Year View - This is possible. I have seen this on other devices with smaller screens.
    *Ability to add a contact to the Calendar Event.
    *Attachments from the calendar.
    Messaging:
    *Changing the theme of the IM screen.
    **Seeing the character and page count as we type
    *Automatically changing to MMS to add Video, sound and pictures.
    **Ability to beam messages and conversations.
    *Ability to not only view as conversations, but also individual messages.
    *IM logins for MSN, MSN Live, ICQ, Yahoo Messenger, Facebook.
    Camera:
    **Add support for Panaramic view
    **Add support for digital zoom in and out using the volume keys and multi touch.
    **Add an option for Shutter Sound
    **Support for Face recognition and light detection.
    **Ability to set the resolution of the pictures and videos being taken.
    **A menu option for all of this.
    *Add features for Focus and Exposure.
    *Image modes such as Black and White, Watercolor and other colors.
    **Scene modes such as Landscape, portrait, Sunset, Dusk, Night time and Action.
    *After taking a photo, let it come up with an option on if you want to save or discard the photo, while it shows you a preview of the image.
    **An option to add the photo video to your contacts, facebook, google Orkut, Twitter, MySpace, photobucket and others.
    **Ability to send as MMS after taking the photo/video along with an option to resize it to MMS size quality.
    *Timer so that the camera can shoot after a specific time.
    *An option to add backgrounds and scenery.
    Browser:
    **iPhone Spoofing.
    *Ability to send page link
    **Ability to remember passwords and logins
    **Ability to type in a new web URL while on any page.
    Messaging:
    *Smiley faces
    Device Settings:
    *A setting where you can tell it to never shut off if its plugged in. This way the device is always on while being plugged in.
    *Led Notifications.
    Launcher:
    **Ability to add new pages
    **Ability to set how many items are displayed per row
    *Ability to have page tabs and either name them or go by number.
    *Ability to change launcher background or make it transparent.
    **When moving an icon around, can there be a way of doing a cut and paste on the icon, rather than dragging it across screens? One option would be to hold your finger down, it cuts it, then goto the page you want to move it to and click on it and it gets pasted.
    New Features:
    **An on screen Keyboard
    **Many if not all apps and features should support the accelerometer, landscape/portrait and instant flipping.
    *An option to control the transitions when flipping with the accelerometer.
    *On the launch bar, add an IM icon since a lot of people use that more than the E-mail Icon.
    *On the launch bar, Add a speed Dialer contacts view which would display 15 contacts by photo and you can click one to dial.
    *An ability to start with the launcher opened or with just a background,
    Title Bar:
    **Date and time with day of the week: Day of the Week mm/dd/yy hh/mm/ss/am-pm: EG: Mon 2/12/10 11:13:05AM
    **Put the percentage of the battery next to the battery icon.
    Music Player:
    *Add an option for bookmarking.
    **Add a scrollbar to move to a position in the song.
    *Ability to create your own playlist.
    *Ability to find Lyrics online
    *Basically whatever the music player remix can do.
    Bluetooth:
    **Ability to sync with other Microsoft devices.
    Volume Settings:
    **Add from loudest to quietest to Vibrate to no sound at all. I miss the vibrate option on this phone as a setting.
    Enhancements:
    **Better battery life
    **Faster loading (Even though I think it does well already)
    **Bug fixes.
    Possible features for programming:
    *Support for Allegro
    *Support for LUA
    *Support for OpenGL (If its not supported currently)
    *Support for QT (If its not supported currently)
    *Support for AngelScript
    If anyone wants to add or agree, go ahead. But please use the same format as I just did. Thanks for listening Palm.

    Holy crap your asking for a lot. Some of it I certainly agree with, but, some of it frankly would appeal to too few users or is so much beyond what the competition is offering in the price range that I wouldn't hold your breath. That said, you asked for a few things that are already there that you were perhaps either unaware of or maybe don't function the way you would like them to (in which case be more specific.)
    **A sorting feature to sort by companies, phone number, last name, first name, address, etc....
    -There are some sorting features available. When in the contacts main screen, press the menu bar and go to preferences. The top option labeled "List Order" is a sort function. Available options are "First Name," "Last Name," "Company & first name," "Company & last name."
    *Ability to add a middle name as well as a Maiden Name.
    -If you tap the menu bar while editing a contact you will see an option for "Name Details." This will bring up a screen with fields for Prefix, First Name, Middle Name, Last Name, and Suffix.
    *Ability to add more than one note and child.
    -Not sure I understand the need for multiple notes, but each their own etc... As for child, the field is labeled "Children" I'm not sure why you need anything more than to separate multiple childrens names with a comma. Just curious as to why you want an individual field per child (not judging, just curious.)
    *Add a fast dialing system for the first digits 1 through 0. Basically you can assign a number to speed dial. Holding that button will allow the speed dial to dial automatically.
    -This is already there. When viewing a contact (not editing), press the menu bar. Second option down is "Set Speed Dial." Once there Palm has done you one better than 0-9 by offering you nearly every key on the qwerty keyboard. Caveat, best as I've been able to determine the press and hold only works in the phone app or home/launcher screens.
    *Ability to send page link
    -This can already be done. While viewing a web page, press the menu bar, then Page. One of the options is "Share." Selecting this will open a new e-mail with the link and embed a .png thumbnail of the page.
    **Ability to type in a new web URL while on any page.
    - Unless the system "carat" is in a text field of some sort at the time. Just starting to type will bring up the address box.
    *Led Notifications.
    - As someone else pointed out, this was added with 1.4.0. It's settings are located within "Screen&Lock" on the 3rd launcher page. I don't know what affect having a 3rd party patch addressing the same functionality would have if you played with the built in settings while the patch is installed.
    **Add from loudest to quietest to Vibrate to no sound at all. I miss the vibrate option on this phone as a setting.
    - Not really sure what you're asking for here. Volume keys can get you from loudest to no sound at all. There is also a physical switch next to the power button which depending on what you choose in the "Sounds & Ringtones" on the 3rd launcher page can be either silent or vibrate.
    *On the launch bar, add an IM icon since a lot of people use that more than the E-mail Icon.
    - If you're talking about replacing the e-mail icon with the messaging app, you can do this now. It's done the same way you move icons within the launcher.
    *On the launch bar, Add a speed Dialer contacts view which would display 15 contacts by photo and you can click one to dial.
    - This can be accomplished by a number of 3rd party apps. Check the App Catalogue.
    Okay onto my soapbox:
    Contacts:
    Yes, LDAP is an old and useful early net protocol. But it's also one that has fallen largely into disuse. Not saying you shouldn't use it or like it, but you may be the first person I've seen even mention it in a good 6-8yrs.
    I'm not sure why the need for multiple contact photos. Definitely don't see the need for video other than the play with it once "ooh nifty" factor. You acknowledge it's "gimmicky" and then expect Palm to provide it free as opposed to buying a 3rd party app. That's not something that many people are going to want let alone need. If you want it, and someone agrees with you and wants to develop it then you can pay for it. Personally, I'd rather Palm being a smaller company focus its attentions elsewhere including some of the points on your list.
    Agree 100% with categories and better searching as well as the need for birthdays/aniversaries etc. showing up in the calendar.
    Calls:
    More details would be nice but again I disagree with mult photos or video.
    I too would like it to be a little less quick to dial. I'm thinking a press and hold on the screen to dial rather than an additional confirmation prompt. In my mind that would be enough to guard against accidental dialing without being a nuisance when dialing is desired.
    Verizon:
    Visual VoiceMail would be nice definitely. However it's support may not be a Palm issues so much as a Verizon (and/or what ever subcontractor handles that for them) issue. No comment on VZNav and Vcast, have never and don't use them.
    Calendar:
    Funny thing about the adding contacts to events. The under-the-hood support for that functionality I've discovered is actually there. It seems there is just no way to access it when creating or modifying existing events. I recieved an mms with an event from a blackberry that had persons attached and when loaded into my calendar I was able to see and IIRC even modify attached e-mail addresses (which Synergy resolved to the appropriate contacts in my phone.)
    Messaging:
    **Ability to beam messages and conversations.
    -Not sure what you mean by this. Beaming used to refer to IR transfers. Pre/Pixi don't have IR transceivers so I'm not sure what it is your asking for.
    Camera:
    Panorama wouldn't really be useful. The camera is fixed zoom with a physically determined aspect ratio. All Palm could do through software is crop the top and bottom of the image so that what's left is a panoramic looking image. It would not however be any wider a view than what you would getting taking a landscape oriented photo. Unless of course you mean taking multiple photos that would get stitched together which is another matter entirely.
    As for the rest, I think your giving a smart phone camera too much credit and using to replace a purpose built camera. I've occasionally seen one or two of the other requests in smart/camera phones but never all. Being a full on camera is just not what they're designed for. Obviously you can ask, but I wouldn't hold your breath for Palm to add those features. The demand is probably not there among the majority of the userbase and targeted demos for the devices.
    Launcher:
    Everything you've asked for is available in PreWare as a patch. I've got several of 'em installed. The code to add launcher pages was apparently already within the OS and the patch merely enables this existing code. So I imagine much of these requests will be officially enabled at some point in a future webOS update.
    Other:
    I'm curious, in your follow up post you state that face recognition has been on every other smart phone you've owned. Which phones? I've never seen that on anything other than proper cameras (possible exception may be iPhone 3GS which I haven't played with.) Regardless, don't expect it on the Pre. It's a fixed focus camera so face recognition will do virtually nothing but take up processing power (well could be used for exposure but...)
    Not trying to be critical but a lot (but not all) off the stuff you asked for is probably way to niche in terms of the majority of users or potential users for it to be worth Palm to devote resources to over other future features and bug fixes. Some of it might be nice to have (including much of your camera list,) but I'd have to call it low priority since much of it can be done in other ways (off phone) without much difficulty or potentially with 3rd party down the road.

  • Ios6 has messed up my i4 ft quality has gone down the tube reconnecting every 5-10 seconds any ideas how to fix

    The new updates to 6.0.1 has messed up my phone. Face time is always every5-10 seconds saying reconnecting poor quality when both users have full wifi signal with nothing else running in the back ground taking up bandwidth. What's the deal an it seems like I am not the only iPhone user that I have come across that is having this problem iPhones ranging from the 4,4s,5,ipad2 and ipad3 users seem to be having this same issue is there a fix. If not is there a way to go back to the 5.0 iOS that was alot more stable with no issues.

    Problem Solved!!! :) No need Of Any AntiVirus !
    Got back into '''Firefox 5.0.1''' !!
    Its Working Great!

  • Update to IOS 6 has been a nightmare. Facebook would allow me to save pictures unless I granted access to my foto album. Does this mean my pictures are going be planted all over the web? The safari keeps crashing and loading is slow.

    update to IOS 6 has been a nightmare. Facebook would allow me to save pictures unless I granted access to my foto album. Does this mean my pictures are going be planted all over the web? The safari keeps crashing and loading is slow. Most infuriating is that YouTube was deleted from my entertainment apps and I now have to pay for it if I want it back!! This is a bloody disgrace.

    Back up all data.
    Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.

    During an app update it froze and has said waiting for 2 days and I am unable to open or delete. How do I recover my app?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • Ipod cannot be updated, an unknown error has occurred. (-48)

    I'm at the end of my tether right now. I updated iTunes to the newest version, then updated my iPod. Now I'm getting the error message "Ipod cannot be updated, an unknown error has occurred. (-48)". I've searched the site and other forums and I can't find anyone with that same message who can help me. I've tried installing an older version of iTunes but I can't use it because my iPod has been updated to work with the newest one. I've uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, nothing helped.
    So my questions are:
    1) Any way I can uninstall the update I did for my iPod? That is, so it is compatible with older versions again.
    2) What could be causing this message?
    3) Is there an e-mail address for apple, who seem wholly uninterested in what happens with their product once the £235 has been paid for it?
    Any help is appreciated.

    Interesting, that error code doesn't seem to appear on the iPod support pages. Since it's saying "The iPod cannot be updated" it sounds like it's indicating there's a problem with the iPod... although with "unknown error" it's hard to say for sure. My recommendation would be that you try restoring your iPod, and then giving it another go. If you're uncertain about the restore process, take a look at this article, it should answer your questions.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
    Once you restore it, try updating it again in iTunes. If you have any more problems or questions, feel free to reply, and I'll see what I can do to help.
    Best wishes!

  • The ipod "name" cannot be updated, an unknown error has occurred (-48)

    a few nights ago while i was updating songs to my ipod video, this thing appeared on the screen in a quick flash and i wasnt able to read what it said. then my computer blinked and resetted, causing my ipod to unplug without ejecting properly. so i pulled out the plug from the butt of the ipod only to find out that when i opened it, all my songs were gone. a good 3000 i think. i think i also pressed menu and play at the same time after that.
    the ipod "name" cannot be updated, an unknown error has occurred (-48)
    this is what keeps appearing on my i-tunes everytime i try to transfer songs to my ipod vid. the weird thing is that when i drag and drop songs from i-tunes to the ipod icon, it says its updating. but when its all done, not a single song appears on my ipod. and it also said something like "cannot be restored" and "ipod service error" on the ipod updater. i've tried on both computer and laptop and am experiencing the same problem. as of now, my ipod is working but it's just all empty. could anyone help? im so frustrated coz this is the second ipod i've purchased since the last one that broke down. thanks.

    k i tried that but i couldnt find cupertino usa on my ipod. i did: date and time - set time zone - then a list of places come out with (DST) beside each of em. i chose bangkok (dst). tried to plug it again on i-tunes and the same darn thing appears. that dreaded -48 error. ill check out the rest of those links you guys posted anyway. thanks again for tryin to help.

I don't know if this is a hack or what, I brought my computer into the shop to get some work done so it may be their account, I just need the account removed.

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store may prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app may be something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
    File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
    Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
    Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
    Raw Query
    as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
    The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.

    I have just tried to update my ipod touch and the update failed but it has locked my ipod.  All I get is a picture of the itunes logo and the usb lead.  I am unable to get the ipod to move and I don't know what to do.  I think I should be recompenced by Apple if I have to pay to get it fixed!

    The logo is saying connect it to your computer with iTunes installed on the computer.  I assume when yo do this that the iPod is not seen in iTunes. to make iTunes appear try:
    - Resetting the iPod:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Place the iPod in recovery mode.  See:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Place the iPod in DFU mode:
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    If the iPod appears in iTunes restore the iPOd.  If not I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
