Weird data connection problem
 

I've been having a weird data connection problem all day, and I'm hoping someone can help. I'll give a quick narrative:

The first time I used my phone today, I tried to update my feeds in RSS Hub. I kept getting an error message about "not enough storage," even though there was tons of space left. So I opened PocketExpress to try to check some headlines there. There I got a connection error message when I tried to update the headlines. I finally just opened Opera and looked at a few favorite news sites and moved on.

Later I was trying to play some videos on the YouTube app. It would update the lists of most popular, most viewed, etc. videos, but give me a connection error message when I tried to view any of the videos. At this point, I decided to test every app I could think of that uses the data connection.

Opera works fine--can go to any site as normal.
Sprint TV will play channels, but gives an error if I try to update the list of channes.
YouTube updates the lists of videos, but gives an error if I try to watch a video.
RSS Hub says "not enough storage."
PocketExpress says "weak signal or phone is in airplane mode, try again later."
Weather Tab gives an error message when I try to update.
Mail tab lets me send/receive with no problem.

Also, I keep getting a shell32.exe fail message.

I'm running the Sprint stock ROM. I've been on the TP since November, but only had this unit for just over a month. I did a hard reset out of the box, and I made most of the performance reg edits listed in the stickies. I installed a bunch of stuff on the first day, but I haven't really installed much since then, and it's been working great (until now). I did just activate PocketExpress and use RSS Hub for the first time yesterday, though...

I tried this, but it didn't fix the problem (mine was already set to 1 anyway, not 0).

Please help!

What custom rom are you on? What edits or hacks have you done?Howe long have you had the phone? Didi you hardreset after you got the phone?

Also...are you sure you have "tons of space". Did you check the device and the storage card? How much available do you have on each?

Sorry, should have put that stuff to begin with (will edit OP).

I have about 176 megs on the phone and 3 gigs on the card.

Did you change radios?

Re: Weird data connection problem
 

No, I never have. Isn't it bizarre that I can connect to the internet through Opera with no problems, but not through the other apps?

Re: Weird data connection problem
 

Don't know if this helps, but I get the shell32.exe error message when I try to update the weather. When I close the error message, the weather is updated, so I guess it's connecting...

Also, YouTube app now gives the error message right away. It won't even show a list of videos now.

just do a hard reset man. it's obvious something pretty serious is screwed up with all those strange problem. click on start-settings-system tab-clear storage. Then after a few minutes your phone will be back to 100%.
CAUTION - Doing a hard reset will reinstall your OS rom and erase all the data on your phone. It will not erase anything on the microsd card.

Yeah, I have finally accepted that that's what I'll have to do. I just didn't want to have to re-do all the tweaks and re-install all the software. It takes like two hours to get everything put back how it was. I imagine if no one has posted a solution yet, there must not be one available, though.
