Album and Notes take forever to load
 
Has anyone had this issue:

When calling notes, or the Voice Recorder app, or opening HTC Album, they take a very long time to become ready. The Album is usable but take 30-60seconds to populate the thumbnails, and the notes app just spins the wait icon for about the same time til its usable at all. It used to work fine...

I tried removing the storage card to see if its was the issue. Notes weren't ANY different, and the few wallpapers i had in internal storage still took longer than it should to show thumbnails.

Suggestions?

Edit: Well, deleting my videos seemed to resolve the thumbnail issue. I removed almost every voice note I could find on internal and storage card and the notes thing is still a problem.

Well the problem was more extensive than I thought:

Every app that loaded a file browser, ex. Word/Excel/PPT/Voice Recorder/Notes/etc took a good 30-60 seconds to load and save, and to choose a new folder to browse.

The built-in "File explorer" responded normally and quickly. I had not installed the "file dialog changer" or the file explorer extension.

Turns out, it was the "expose Network folder to other programs" option in Resco File Explorer. I use it all the time to transfer stuff to and from my other machines, so its kind of annoying that either I have the network folder, or programs are speedy and usable. Don't remember this being an issue with my Touch Pro or my 6700.

I guess it timed out trying to search the network folder for various file types every time the file browser appeared in a program.

Hope this helps someone...

I remember having that problem with Resco a long time ago & having to disable that feature so it wouldn't sit there looking for a network that only existed when I was on Wi-Fi.

Funny you mention this. The Pro1 with stock rom also does tis. Notes take forever to open. Kinda odd. Specially that notes are simple.

I guess it comes down to the search for the notes/files/whatever - if you have multiple external storage locations, the default integrated browser scans the whole lot. If your external storage is unavailable (wifi off) then you get a big long time out. Maybe there's a timeout setting in the registry for storage or network. I'm gonna hunt...
