Too many cards error, getting it daily

**biggamer3** · 09/07/2009, 10:03 AM

Can't be Google maps as I haven't used it all month

I am having this issue too, haven't tried any suggestions yet on fixing it, but will as soon as I'm done.

I noticed it started happening after downloading the Pre app for Tweed. befre that I was almost all homebrew apps with no problem.
Just if people are curious as to potential apps causing it.

In my observations, Camera and Photos are the two biggest memory hogs I've experienced; "Too Many Cards Open" (memory leaks) after running these two

biggamer3 - thanks for being willing to take the baton and to try and run with it (further debugging what's really happening). Whatever you might learn should be helpful, but even if you aren't able to ascertain anything, my suggestions for avoiding the problems should work for you.

EDIT: PS: I'm pretty sure Palm has already debugged the problem. Learning more will likely just satisfy our curiosity.

i used to get that problem with a few websites, i think hotmail was one of them. they may have fixed it by now, but yah.

**edbtzy** · 09/07/2009, 05:39 PM

in linux, when i use the "all" +m command, it looks like lunasysmgr is eating all my memory up...i don't know what to do, i dont want to keep rebooting my phone everytime i get this error...i guess i just have to wait for 1.2 and hope for thebestt

I open 2 apps after a reboot, and i get the same card message

**nmoreman** · 09/08/2009, 07:06 AM

I have a question on where to find the program "top" I will try this in Development Mode, not rooted, to see. I am having this problem too, have none of the above apps, and it occurs with only 1 or 2 cards open. The only way I can operate my phone is to remove batter for reset.

Pclancy, thanks for great post!

Mainly used Web and Camera App along with Twee last two days, got error again both days.

This i got right now, comical with just one App open!

For those of you who get this error when running the Web, the cause is a script running on the webpage that doesn't load correctly. It builds upon itself and continues to use system memory. Exponential growth, so to speak. If you close the card and wait for a few minutes, the Pre will end the process.

It seems that the Web application needs some work, as the same thing happens in Internet Explorer 8 on Windows XP.

But i am using the same sites since i got the Pre and only started getting these errors after 1.1

Will there be a fix for me or am i screwed with this error daily?

If i have music playing i have to shut it down completely to start up a web page most of the time which is nuts

**pogeypre** · 09/08/2009, 12:11 PM

I have documented a few sites that give me the error most. Tops on my list are these:

ESPN: The Worldwide Leader In Sports

Yahoo!

NBA.COM - The Game Happens Here

TV Network for Primetime, Daytime and Late Night Television Shows - NBC Official Site

I really only see this error weekly. I reported the error, so we shall see if anything changes with WebOs 1.2.

Dont use any of these sites, but if its the Web app causing these errors, i hope 1.2 solves the problem as its getting to the point i would have to return my Pre if the situation isnt fixed

I too have been getting this error a lot more frequently than before. I am sure its from an app causing memory leak, I just don't know which one. I may have to do some testing here in the next couple of days if it persists.

I'm getting the same thing over and over again now. I literally can't open up a single card.

Even after a reboot? What apps have you run since the reboot?

You should run webosdoctor to bring your phone back to a default state and see if the problem exists there. (I suspect it won't.) Then slowly add more programs, one or two at a time - waiting long enough for the problem to resurface or not, and when you find any app that is causing the problem, report that app (and any relevant configuration of it) here.

I feel bummed that you are having such problems. It's time you treat it like cancer and operate to remove it. Once you have treated the symptom you can then go back and start researching the cause.

**biggamer3** · 09/09/2009, 12:30 PM

not even using many homebrew apps.

Basically just using web for last few weeks
