-- avantgo (http://discussion.visorcentral.com/vcforum/showthread.php?threadid=2958)

I downloaded Avantgo to my visor when I first got it and it worked reasonably well. Then I had to do a hard reset because I changed batteries? (even though I changed them within a minute) so I re downloaded avantgo. I chose my channels and when I sync everything says it has worked but my visor does not show the channels, just avantgo's welcome page.Can anyone help??Is there another web browser that is more reliable?
Also everytime I turn on my visor after an hour or so break it tells me i've had a hotsync problem even if I havn't synced for a couple of days. Thanks for any help in advance..

Having gone through this over the weekend, there's a few items you need to check:

- An uninstall of AvantGo/MobileLink on the desktop seems to work better than just reinstalling on top of an existing desktop installation.

- When you do uninstall AvantGo and MobileLink (uninstalling one does not uninstall the other), you should exit the HotSync Manager. This will allow the uninstall script to remove a registry setting.

- If you do not want to perform an uninstall/reinstall, check the HotSync conduits to ensure that the MobileLink conduit is *not* set to "Do Nothing". It should be set to "Synchronize data".

Note: Other than some added time, an uninstall/reinstall, despite being an invasive routine, won't kill your AvantGo channels-- remember, that information is stored on their server(s).

I think the advice to uninstall the mobile link on the desktop is well taken, but hey, avantGo has excellent support. shoot them an email.

As for better browsers, I personally find AvantGo is superb.
