Last night I changed my HTC home icons and the clock and so far today the phone has been lagging really bad. It takes 8-10 seconds for text messages to show up when i hit the icon on the home screen. Also just turning on the screen takes almost 6 seconds now. Loading the internet takes forever as well as go through settings. I went in and changed the buttons to original and no luck. I also went into cpuscaler in Batterystatus and added boost to 273 and it helps a little bit but not much. Any help would be great. I have 19-20 meg of running memory and 25 of storage no running applications and its still very slow.
I changed htc home icons few times and everytime was the pda working normally. No such problem like yours. I think u will have to reflash the rom.
Ive run NBD 8.3 rom for a couple months now with no problems what so ever. Why the sudden change? I also downloaded a lot of apperance items for HTC home the day before that so maybe that could be the cause.
Does anyone know how to delete those once they are downloaded?

Is there anybody who's having lockups while the phone is in standby with TF3D desactivated? I'm trying to isolate the problem of lockups and resets during the night or when the phone is a longer time in standby.
not had any so far. will turn tf3d off for the next few days and see what happens.
For info, just in case it's something else causing it, i'll get together a list of the programs and tweaks i've done so that a proper comparison can be made.
I had my share of lockups with Touchflo. After I de-activated Touchflo and installed Spb-mobile-shell, I have had no more lockups. Everything works faster and more stable. Not trying to push Spb just making the point that the lockups came from Touchflo. At least in my case.
Cheers
Same here, disactived touchflo and everyting seems very smooth now. No more lockups.
I'll report back in a few days.
well, hard reset and turned tf3d off and it has worked fine for the entire weekend without so much as needing charging.
granted, the battery was below 10% when i got into work this morning, but it survived. not one single crash or hang.
This thing has to be one of the most stable windows mobile devices i have ever used....!
I've been getting problems coming out of stand-by while charging. With TF3F off (just using regular today-screen stuff), these problems seem to disappear.
Hey guys,
So basically I do have a hell of a lot of apps and stuff install, and I was wondering, what's a decent about of time for HTC Sense to finish loading?
It take probably 3 mins from when I press the power button to when I can start moving around on the phone.
Is there a way to maybe decrease the time spent on the splash screen (not the animated one, I have a a cool gif and sound for that, but for the screen that follows)
I don't particularly mind that much coz at the end of the day its just 3/4 mins and then I'm on my way but I've been in such a tweaking mood the past few weeks with my HD2 I just keep wanting to make it perfect!
I noticed when I upgraded from Energy's 9th may to 13th may with the same maybe a few more mods installed, the duration of the "launching HTC Sense" has gone down by a minute or so.
Oh and also, I have extensvely checked the forums around for this but it seems all there is, is changing the ink shortcuts but that's not what I want. When I press the end end, it coz up with the quicklist, then I have to click turn off and then the slidetoshutdown comes up. I want to go straight to the sidetoshutdown screen and skip the quick list. I've tried changing the end key in settings>personal>buttons but still nothing
EDIT 19/5/10:
Seems to have found a fix, deleted all my emails and sense now loads in 20 seconds or so. My emails and messages are stored on my SD card via relocation in Pocket Mechanic, maybe keeping them on the device resolves the issue, haven't tested.
Bump please
Sometimes it jungs hangs. Touch the screen if it gets stuck and it should come back just fine.
There's no need to wait until it remembers where it's supposed to be.
It doesn't hang randomly at all, it's just takes a longish time to load when i start up my phone
Maybe have a look in \Windows\Startup\ Maybe with so many installed apps and games this folder is full of shortcuts to let the apps start on startup for quicker access. Cleaning some out of heren maybe makes the phone faster. good luck!
Fair enough, you don't mind the wait, and I understand (it's not as if you restart your phone every 10 minutes!)
But, there's definitely something doing something. I've got plenty of software on mine, and from power off and pressing the power button, right up to a completely loaded and stutter-free Sense, it takes just over a minute (I just timed it at 1:02).
For the end key leading to the slide to shutdown automatically, search the energy thread, I honestly can't remember exactly where it was, but a member posted a fix for it...the same guy that posted the Home button fix, the music player, etc.
Same here.
It's Sense that takes a huge time to completely load. Appears quickly, but veeeery slow and laggy for one or two minutes. Same when i only relaunch Sense, not only after a reboot.
Don't have much in the startup folder, a lot of tabs deactivated (music, docs, footprints, ebboks, twitter, facebook etc), but still...
And even after a fresh flash - with different roms from different cooks.
It does that too when i unplug the phone from a usb connection with my computer - but not if it was connected in activesync mode.
--edit--
just thought of something while typing this. i tried with no sc-card in: way way much faster.
so basically, Sense is scanning my whole 16gb card when it starts?...
Wow I actually cracked it,
I spent like a good hour or so experimenting around with everything possible from apps, to addons to random registry fixes I made. NONE of them did anything.
My sense now loads in 20 seconds flat.
How?
I deleted all my emails... lol
I think it is an SC card issue, because basically I have all me emails and messages stored onto my SD card (made the relocation via pocket mechanic)
Everytime I reflashed new roms, I install me apps games and whatever first, restart and its fine. I import my PIM backup stuff last and then it goes slow, I never really picked up on it because I'm usually finding other random cabs I forgot to install and add them at the same time, leading me to think its those that slow it down. But no, its all the emails, which I suppose makes sense seeing I have a couple of thousand stored.
Hopefully this will work for you guys, move/delete you emails from your SD card! Or it could well be an SD card issue in general.
Edit: I know this is in the wrong place, I didn't scroll down enough! I can't find the option to delete and re-post it in the proper place though :-(
Hello XDA.
Ok. Got my x10 in September prior to the 2.1 "update"
Since the update I've had loads of issues.
-Occasionally (upto once a week) everything will vanish. All my apps, my menu is empty and my home screens are empty. I tried changing to pro Launcher but it didn't make any difference. While in this "mode" I can use the phone as normal as long as the app is already open in the background. To fix it - reboot the phone.
-the phone is generally slow. It hangs loading the phonebook, the menu and general UI is slow and lags when doing anything including making, receiving and ending phone calls - and sending texts.
- Occasionally (at least twice a week) my phone will not send a text, ie I have to "resend message".
- Daily (at least once a day, when I notice it) the phone will decide to drop all network communication for no reason. One second I have 4-5 bars then all of a sudden a X appears over the status. It only lasts about 5 seconds and has not actually bothered me because it dosn't seem to happen in call but it's strange.
The major issue is that it's generally slow and sluggish.
I have: Re-installed the OS twice to no help. It's even slow and sluggish with nothing installed apart from the default SE stuff.
So, firstly is this normal? Also, can I just install another android version (eg one from HTC or something) onto the phone - Android is all open and happy so I assume this can be done right?
Thanks
Hi,
I've only had my Nexus S for a couple of days and loving it so far, but this morning I had a problem. Here's how it happened:
When my alarm clock went off I hit the snooze button and turned the screen off, went back to sleep. 10 minutes later the alarm went off again later as expected and so I hit snooze again and turned the screen off like before. 5 minutes later I decided to get up as otherwise I would have been late for work, so I go to my phone to disable the alarm as otherwise it would be buzzing when I'm in the shower and the missus would get annoyed. The problem however was that I couldn't unlock the screen! I was jabbing at the power button repeatedly to get it to come on but no response at all. I ending up removing the battery. I should also add that my phone was plugged in a the time as I'd left it charging over night.
Has this ever happened to anyone else? I will try and replicate the problem. Here's how my phone is at the moment:
All my homescreens are bare apart from the main one where I have a 4 shortcuts, google search bar and the analogue clock widget. Apps I currently have installed are: Ebay official, facebook official, Twitter official, 3G watchdog, Fruit Ninja, Angy Birds, Live Holdem, Google maps, Gmail Unread Count, Movies, TV Guide.
I'm hoping that this problem was just a one-off.
Thanks
sort of same here. i bought it last thursday and today i can't use the lower part of the screen, right where the phone, menu and browser icons are. Space bar won't work when writing text, etc.
If anyone knows how to fix, pls share
The device is stock 2.3.3, i9023XXKB1, didn't root.

I have been using Nexus S for 4 months now, and I do have random reboots once in a while. Did the phone well work after the reboot?

I never had responsive problem on my phone other than the phone just freezing... Maybe theres something wrong, go ask Samsung.
unfortunately i also have such a problem now! since this morning my screen does not respond on touch correctly...it is very hard to unlock the screen (have to do it very slowly, bar is jumping like crazy) and after that it seems like the screen is reacting even on any reflection, suddenly the status bar is coming down, if i am in a menu, it always scrolls down and up...damned, that sux!
any ideas what i could do? or is this a case for samsung support?
ps: i did not flash anything in the last days, i even restored my nandbackup, that i made after 2.3.4-update (no custom kernel, no nothing), but that did not change anything...
Hello there everyone. I've had my HTC Sensation since September and so far it has been a very enjoyable experience, with only one abnormal reset. However, in the past two days, some weird stuff has happened.
Every once in a while, I see the stock lockscreen flicker over my current screen (Even in an app). It is currently disabled by WidgetLocker as well.
The first day I had installed SweeterHome 2, StatusBar +, and also the application Faster Drawer. The first reset happened as I went to open Faster Drawer (Not for the first time, however). It then rebooted, but things seemed to work fine. Also, the app Profile Scheduler was no longer able to change the screen brightness when I clicked on a profile, just the other settings. I had to go into Android settings to do it manually. (There I found the slider down to 0 as I wanted it, and when I touched it, the screen brightness lowered to where it was supposed to be)
The second reset happened today and was even weirder. I was looking through my Minimal Reader widget when I was interrupted by the white and green HTC boot logo, and the phone took a few minutes to reset. When it came to, all of my widgets were gone, and replaced by "Tap to restore" squares (On both WidgetLocker and SweeterHome 2)
I really have no clue what is going on, though I am very disappointed by the reboots, especially for losing the widgets (Basically my entire homescreen was made of them, it will take a long time to restore). The only thing I messed with was the Accessibility applications; I had to check the one for StatusBar + and I clicked the one for WidgetSoid Notifications, but then disabled it. (Which by the way, the WidgetSoid notification toggles no longer work until I use the system toggle for data, then I can start using them)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am using a stock, unrooted HTC Sensation 4G on T-Mobile, running 2.3.4, and it had that firmware update by T-Mobile a few months ago.

the most ugly thing is i saw it with another sensation user in my famely to before i bought my phone. it got sended away by warrenty got back prob solved but more arised it began also after couple months. mine started doing it i rooted/s-off mine and started testing roms wich one feld like i wanted to use. because of quick changing i cound watch that after an rom from here the prob got solved so here are my suggestions:
1 send it and maybe get a worse phone back(telling from experience)
2 root/s-off test some roms and away goes problem
The issue just became worse. This time, without a reset, my WidgetLocker widgets were lost again, and replaced by the "Tap to restore" dialog. I was playing music at the time with the screen off (no other apps running), and it was not interrupted. When I went to unlock the phone, they were gone.
Any thoughts? This seems like a pretty serious issue to me. I'd like to stay stock since I don't have the money to replace the phone if something were to go wrong.
Try removin the apps and see if that helps,you seem to have alot on there that removes or modifies functionality
