It's a known behaviour of the Xda II with Caller ID / Photo Contact.

The reason why Caller ID sometimes display the picture and sometime it doesn't, is because Caller ID is quietly killed by the 32-processes limit. Please do a search on the 32-process limitation to know more. However, Caller ID in the new ROM is rather robust as it would reload itself in a shorter time after it has been killed by the OS.

the explanation of the 32-process limitation can be found here: http://www.ppcw.net/index.php?itemid=1645

Now, for a phone edition pocket pc, you "seemingly" can do multitaksing on such small capacity of RAM and processor speed ... however the truth is ONLY 32 processes can be run at any one time. So, when you hit the limit, the operating system will have to kill off the old and idle process to allow a new process to take place. Here's why IA Caller ID takes the hit all the time, as it was loaded at startup and probably have not been active much. :)

Nothing much you can do, just try to close each program when you don't use it anymore. Use "Running Programs" to close them.
