for the most part the phone appears to work good. however, when i use the stock browser or chrome, i get random lockup with the following message. "unfortunately, internet has stopped"
this used to happen at random. and i would have to go to task manager and shutdown all programs and clear the ram, otherwise this message would pop up again real quick....like multiple times in a row.
so i did a master reset several times which did not help. i even had my sd card out of the phone to see if that was the issue, and nope. sprint store did a couple tweaks, but it still locked up and gave me that message. so then sprint connected the phone to their computer and did a performance test. one category failed and the tech said he never seen that before. so they ordered me a new replacement. well, first day with the new phone the error message popped up. and then every once in a while.
well, today things got really worse. the phone locked up and then spit out that same error message "unfortunately, internet has stopped". and i tried clearing. the message would go away and the phone would lock up if i pressed anything else on the screen. even just opening task manager, by holding the home button. however during this latest episode of the error messages, i had a notification on my drag down notification bar, and it said something about some offer from sprint zone for some item.....eureka?? i think that was the name. i cleared that and the phone ran smooth after that, for now. could there be something from sprintzone causing this? also, my bookmarks widget doesnt show my bookmarks anymore. its just blank.
any ideas??? i'm getting a little fed up.:'(
