Cannot open links from outside the browser
 
Is this normal for my 700wx!?
:?
I receive a link in an e-mail or rss feed, I tap on the link and it doesn't open or do anything, even if the IE browser is opened in the back. I even installed other browser, still doesn't open...;

I am very frustrated with issue and I couldn't find any reference about it, whether is a service issue or hardware issue, or WM issue... :( ;

I suggest making a sprite backup and then hard reset. don't install any software after the hard reset and see if the problem persists.

This just started for me when I installed Opera and decided not to like it. Anyone know how to make PIE the default internet application

Did the hard reset on mine, restored functionality, thanks for advice Santos!! :thumbleft:

So much for installing your browser of choice, unless this links association with IE can be figured out..;

Happy to hear you're working now.

I used to be all gung-ho installing any software on my Treo. Then it started acting up, BT not working, constant soft-resets b/c IE wouldn't work, etc. Now, I only install software AFTER making a Sprite Backup so I can go back to a working state very easily.

It's worth the extra 2 minutes and 2 soft resets instead of the hours to get my device back to the way it was manually.
