maps application closing down by itself :mad:
 

Even after reflashing, rebooting and formatting the internal memory card, i cant open a number of applications. They just close themselves down within a fraction of a second. For example When I try to open the maps application, which i used to love using very much, the little [Maps - loading] box comes up and after that a blank window titled with the title of the application, in this case Maps appears for a fraction of a second before closing it self down. Very annoying:mad:. The same happens for email which loads but dosen't show up at all. The rest of my applications work fine. Oh, and it happened with maemo mapper before i had reflashed.

Please help me. Please.
And can somebody tell me how you 'Thank' people for their replys, i can say thank you easy but not in that.. green way.

Thanks...

Hi;

I've only had my N810 for two days, not an expert. I've had your problem happen very occasionally. I'm wondering if I'm hitting a button without realizing it. Overall mine is very stable. Pidgin is crashing on me, but no other apps. Try installing load-applet; it will run on the status bar and tell you when the n810 has high cpu utilization.

What version of the OS is running? (control panel , about product). I'm running 2.2007.51-3, obtained yesterday.

Regarding the green thanks - can you provide details? All I have to do is click on it. BTW, when posting from the n810, I use the Mobile I interface ; it does not have the "Thanks" button. but it is a lot easier and faster to use.

Ello again

I've checked and I'm running the same version of the OS as you. ive tried reflashing but i have the same problem. maemo maps works now though and ive installed the load applet and I have a low cpu.
Dont know what 2 do. :confused:

Oh, and I cant see the thanks button.

Shall I post what happens on youtube?

Hi;

Sure, youtube would be cool. Hey other members with big pulsating brains - jump in here!

On a semi-related note, I was being driven MaD by my screen intermittently going dim. Last night I realized I was covering the light senor with my thumb. ( my daughter called me a 'tard again).

Regarding the missing thanks button - try the "classic" view. I can see it when using classic, but not mobile I or mobile II.

Have you confirmed the email address you've registered with the fora? The "Thanks!" button does not appear for users without confirmed email addresses. Also, it never appears in a few, select forums, such as "Off-Topic".

I might have found it..

Re: applications keep on closing themselves down

ive just posted it to yout tube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuNd9YGkGf4
The quality is a little crappy becuase I recorded with my phone.

Re: applications keep on closing themselves down
 

Hmmm.

Watching your vid, it seems like you went to Extras to run Map. On my n810, it is the first app in the My Selection Section.

Have you tried uninstalling Map and re-installing?

Sorry I am not much help. I'm very new here.

I wonder if you could get the attention of more experts if you re-post in the troubleshooting section?

Hi;

I saw this in another thread:
This sounds a lot like the problem you are having.
