Something rather weird happened today... I wanted to turn my P800 off, but nothing happened. I didn't change the key mapping or anything. I just installed Handy Day 2.5... had to take the battery out to turn this bastard off.
Did anyone else have this problem, too?

Alright... it seems that this "automatic startup" option thingie in Handy Day caused this. I turned it off, and it didn't happen again... yet!

I got the Handy Day 2.5 but there is no option for auto start when I turn on the phone .. It always starts when I turn on but I don't want it to .. I just looked at the preferences section but there is nothing to disable auto start .. How can I disable it ?

Oh by the way new version of BugMe has this auto start thingy and I also could not find a way to disable it too .. Somebody help ?

It's not called autostart, I just didn't dare to translate it.
It's supposed to be the 2nd option, called "show when flip is open" or something like that.
Cheers!

Handy Day has been the single source of most problems I have recently. It keeps crashing the phone, it wouldn't load on pressing the blue button, and it gives problems during backup. I don't know if it's because I run the program on the MS. Even booting the phone up is slow.

I removed Handy Day finally, and the phone was ok. It seems it had given all the problems.

Eventually, it was only good for locking the phone with flip off, and even so it used more memory than it deserves.

Anymore flip off phone locking proggies out there?

I've found with Handy Day 2.5 everynow and then the clock stops (in fact I've just looked at it now and it's sat on 8:04am when the time is 8:27am). The only way around I've found is to reboot the phone or it will keep sticking.
Another problem is that the blue button doesn't always call Handy Day, sometimes it reverts back to calling the internet (I've had to delete my homepage to stop the bloody thing connecting to GPRS).
