Hi,

I have ROM upgraded my 4150 to 1.10. I have used Media Player fine, but
a month ago, I stopped being able to click on a media file (MP3, WMV
etc) to start it playing in Media Player. If I manually started Media
Player first and then clicked on the file, it would launch in Media
Player and play fine.

Today I cannot even start Media Player by itself! I am unable to play
any media as Media Player no longer starts. I have soft reset over and
over, tested various methods, but it refuses to start. I see the title
bar change to "Media Player", but then it disaapears and is not loaded
in memory.

Any hints at all what I can do now?

/Peter

Did you change the theme in Media Player at some point in time? Did
this start after you changed anything or added/removed software from
your device?

Did you use PocketBreeze by any chance? If so, the d-pad mapping in Pocket
Breeze conflicts with that in MP. If I guessed right, then go into PB
configuration and turn off scrolling and tabbing with the d-pad.
