Weird HTC Home problem? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De

I get these odd white lines across HTC HOME when closing the SMS application in Dutty's new rom. Its like Home doesn't update as fast as the rest of the today screen and is stuck with this odd distortion for a split second or so. Any ideas?

That symptom kinda looks familar, but not sure. I recommend posting that question in the Dutty ROM thread that relates, you will get a more focused audience there.
Good luck.

I did post it in there, but that thread moves so fast that there was no chance anyone saw it. I figured I would put it into its own thread because it is possible people in other roms have the same problem.

PM HIM! That should do the trick!

I don't want to bug dutty... im sure he gets millions of redundant PMs a day.

Come on guys. I tried to search but nothing came up.

I have that issue too

Have you found anything to fix it?

Im gonna flash a new rom. Im leaning towards the L26 rom

**Solution**
well I have had that problem also but either of the 2 things i did keeps clearing it up.
1) reinstall the HTC HOME
2) reset the HTC Home theme if you messed with it.
both of those cleared my issue now i just leave the default theme and i have not had to reinstall the HTC Home.

I had a similar issue but it was with the dial pad for the phone.... The screen was white on the bottom half and had red/blue/yellow lines running horizontal behind the numbers. I did a hard reset and still had the same issue, reflashed the rom, same issue. I "fixed" it by installing the black dialer skin.

Could use suggestions on an issue

I recently flashed to Shav3d on my wing camera worked 1 time then neither the button or shortcuts would work thinking some how i might have corrupted a file or the rom just didn't like me i went over to numb3rs .. still no camera so i jumped back to shav3d again at this time i still have no camera and was wondering if anyone had had this particuler problem and if so if you might be able to reccommend a fix. Thanks ahead of time for your advice and input.
have you tried anybody elses WM6.5 Roms? All the ones listed were made by Ace who isn't doing any updates (Atleast i don't believe he is) but i don't think anyone else had those problems with his ROMs
Good point i'll try another this evening. Open to suggestions on which. didn't figure was a common. Problem as didn't see mention of anthing about it posted. Thanks for the respond.
they are all good... really just depends what you want M2D or titanium or niether.

Yea, that's weird. I would hazard to guess that the phone's hardware is having a problem somewhere. I don't have that problem at all.
As to updates to my ROM's, well, if these TP2 people would stop freakin releasing soooo many ROM's, then I could work on mine! I'm trying to tweak up the visuals, and fix some minor bugs. But there's nothing that really needs a major update, just some very minor things.
But there's millions of ROM's out there now. You can try everything. It's impossible to say which is good now.
Thanks guys ill keep chasing the issue except for that one minor matter i love your ROM's Ace so keep it up
I'm still a noob, but whenever I've done something or tried a ROM that jacked up my wing, I revert back to stock ROM, and try again from scratch. I know it's probobly a long way about the problem, but it works for me. lol! like I said, still a noob. lol.
Sorry to have to resurrect this thread. I'd really like to stick with the numb3rs ROM, there has to be a way to fix the camera; I'm hoping someone knows how.
I also noticed the home screen & tmail randomly crashes when I open a message & it halts on "loading". grr.
Unless anyone knows of a cleaner ROM with a similar UI?
Check to make sure your SD Card is working properly?

Widget display issues...

I'm having problems with some of the widgets displaying on my home screens.
Some, but not all of them, have what I would describe as a static appearance covering part of the icon, usually in a bar across the width of the icon.
The issue affects different widgets at different times but would appear to only be ones added by the apps I've downloaded rather than the "stock" ones.
I'm hoping I'm not alone in this and that better still, someone knows how to sort it?

I had that too. On one widget. I simply rebooted my device, and it went away. Not come back since. Not totally sure what it is to be honest.

Cheers guys will give that a go....
On another note, how are you finding the Sensation? I came from a rooted Desire so the leap doesn't seem quite as big as maybe I'd hoped, not too impressed with the "locally stored" navigation maps not being free as it was always publicised...
Apart from that I'm well impressed, as are my colleagues more importantly! ;-)

I am very impressed by the device. Looks amazing. I love the new screen, much better than the WVGA on the Desire HD. qHD is lovely. Missing the root though. Really hope there are some breakthroughs when more devs have the device.
Have same problem too. noticed it on the stock android power widget and also the facebook widget. I can only describe it like "bad tv reception". hoping it will clear up after a reboot. haven't noticed it with any of the htc widgets.
Just picked up Sensation today. So far loving it. this has been the only problem I've encountered so far.
From what I have read so far this issue is known and is believed to be a software issue. I have experienced this on a few non htc widgets. I tend to agree with the notion that it's because not all apps can keep up with the new qHD screen.
Agreed: Only 'major' issue for me as well

I've had my phone for a few days (luck to find a Walmart that sold it to me). I received "static lines" on my power widget. I rebooted this once, and all is well. It only affected that one widget. Reminds me of a video card going out on a computer (again just on the widget).
Oh, I also noticed that the voice recorder widget (from htc Hub) wouldn't turn on when I pressed the widget.
I'm having this static lines issue also. Do the guys from HTC know that? Hope it is gonna be fixed in the new firmware.
I'm having a serious issue with the widgets, worse than what I've seen described here. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to it. It can affect almost all widgets at one time or perhaps just a few. Rebooting sometimes but by no means always helps, as does switching skins.
I expect it is indeed a software issue. I'm hoping an update with smooth things out a bit, but I sure as heck haven't heard of any updates any time soon for T-Mobile, S-OFF or otherwise.
I had this issue too. Where random widgets would show some static graphic corruption. But yesterday I got the OTA update and after that all these issues seems gone. So definitely a software issue.
I have now started to get this, I have found killing HTC sense removes this for a while but it then comes back....
Never had until now..and had for month or so now...
Could anyone with this issue please have a look at this thread and confirm that these are same problems?

Same problem - horizontal "rainbow" lines through widgets.
Can anyone else who got the OTA update confirm that it fixes this issue?

I had the same problem.the power widget,youtube widget and PowerAamp widget all have those horizontal rainbow lines.i just deleted them from the screen then added them back...that cleared the problem for me.
I actually noticed something very similar to this, but it was in Wordfeud. Across the bottom, where all your letters are, I had the same thing happening. I did a reset and it hasn't come back... as of now, anyways.

Ive always seen some black lines in the letters in wordfued... figured it was a compatability issue. The always go away as soon as I touch the screen..
Same problem here, it happens with 3rd party apps and also with with stock apps like google search bar or tips widget(it's random)
I hope that it will be fixed soon.
Had this twice, first time after Hub downloads second time just happened but the phone had like 80 RAM left. First time did a reset and never again touched the damn buggy Hub (didn't let me login again anyway). Second time a battery pull fixed it. Awful stuff.

EDIT 2: Okay! I got it. Here are the other apps I installed this morning that gave me the problems again but are not gone after I uninstalled them: Linpack and Quadrant. Please give feedback as to which apps I've uninstalled that you currently have on your phone.
EDIT: Never mind. It came back again. I'm still trying to find the culprit. I'll update you guys if I find anything.
I think I may know why we have this problem. I noticed this happen to me when I first started installing apps on my phone which I bought just 3 days ago. At first, I rebooted to get rid of it, but then it would come back as soon as I touched the screen, not even on an icon or widget. So I thought of the last app I installed and uninstall it. After rebooting, the problem was gone. I did a few tests and it seems to only happen with apps that require root access.
Can you guys confirm this for me?
So far my theory is working. I've tested with apps like ROM Manager, SetCPU, Root Explorer, etc. Right after I install, the problem appears. After uninstalling, I reboot and the problem is gone.

Auto rotation problem in custom ics rom

Hi guys
Last night I installed the fallout rom on my desire s and it's all done.
I'm facing a problem, that is even when I disable auto-rotate from display settings, it still keeps rotating the phone. (In settings menu, and everywhere else unless I disable auto rotate in some app but most don't even have the auto rotate setting and follow the default settings, which is set to disable but is still on for some reason)
Basically I want to disable auto rotate permanently. I do not ever need it.
Any idea how to do this? There must be a way. This is really a deal breaker for me for this rom and it's the first custom rom i've installed on my phone.
This bug is known about Fallout. There is no fix.
You can try a newer Sense 4 ROM (like Nik Project X)

Not making a lot of sense there.
I understand ROM loyalty and am convinced that fallout is a great ROM and one which I want to stick with. However, your experience of never having had a certain problem does not mean that you can say it doesn't exist.

You may have a point but it isn't valid in this case as the problem started two months after the installation.
Actually I lean to the feeling that this is not a problem with the ROM but I'm finding it interesting that I have now found several people mentioning this problem associated with this ROM - so I'm now seeking clarification, which is not really helped by apparently automatic denial that a problem exists by people who have no knowledge of it.

My desire s with stock rom is experiencing some issue, i called htc up, tech told me to do a factory reset, hey that solve the problem, but wait, i dont think that should be the solution, ROLL OUT ANOTHER OTA!!!
Same case here, just do a fresh clean install, with backup apps and data. If after 2 months it happen again, then come back and report. Or you expecting fallout v6, which in my case i dont mind :victory: in xda new roms are always welcome.
The dev or someone with expertise needs to experience the issue for you to have clarification, if non are having u only get assumptions from people who are not knowledgeable enuf.

So following your advice I did a totally clean install and the problem was still with me - so I figured it was a problem with the phone. Just to be sure I installed a different ROM and the problem was gone. That suggests to me, regretably, that it is problem with this ROM. Why it should happen to some people and not others is a bit of a mystery.
I felt it was both arrogant and ignorant of me to give feedback with a diiferent Rom on my phone, so I decided to flash fallout before making a reply since I had the zip on my pc. Never like going back to older roms, always going for the newer ones.
And result is, rotation works. No issue here. On and it rotates, with the phone still tilted I off and it went back to vertical without me tilting it back.
Sad that this Rom is having issue with your phone.

Touchscreen doesn't work for first few seconds

This was one of the similar threads found, but it didn't give me a solution. I messed around with the different CPU governor's but none of them solve my problem. When I unlock the phone, it doesn't respond well to my touch for a few seconds. I'm using CM10 and I've never had this problem before. It only came up recently when I replaced my lcd and digitizer because I was having touchscreen problems. Now the problems are mostly gone except at the lock screen. I've tried 3 different roms (one was a Sense 3.6 rom) and they all had this problem. Outside of the lock screen, it mostly worked well except inside the "phone app" in the sense rom. I called someone and they didn't hear it ringing, so it went to voicemail. I didn't want to record a message so I pressed end call like 30 times but it didn't work until i took out the battery. It happens in CM10 too, but its not as bad, usually ends the call after the 3rd or 4th time.
To troubleshoot the problem, I turned on "Show touches-show visual feedback for touches" under Developer options. I also made this video so you guys can see what it looks like.

Take a look at this thread, maybe it helps. I would say update your firmware to 3.33, and try cleaning and pulling out the gray pin on the back of the phone. Hope it helps
Did you replace the digitizer yourself? If yes, I'd go back and make sure nothing is wrong. Make sure everything is properly put back together. Hope this helps. best wishes.

I did replace it myself and I think that's probably the problem but my dad is refusing to help me take it apart again. We're going to go to a cell phone repair store to see if they can give us some advice, then he'll probably agree to open it up again and see what's going on.

It looks like you've opened 2 treads for the same problem, so here's what I answered you earlier - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34955821&postcount=3
Ah yes, I made some new discoveries since then and I forgot to check on that thread so I ended up making a new one. The digitizer/lcd I bought is supposedly new, and it's the one that says HTC in the middle (no T-Mobile logo on the side) I'm updating Cyanogen Mod to the newest version and flashing new firmware, so if that doesn't fix it then that'll rule out software issues. After that, I'll re-install the lcd/digitizer and see if I can get it to work.
Also, you said "when you change displays it's never the same as the original" I've been looking through hundreds of forums and many people have successfully replaced their screen only for the problem to come back again a few weeks later. I'm thinking it has something to do with static buildup caused by third-party batteries or chargers, as seen in this thread that i forgot to mention. I've changed my charger so all that remains is taking apart the screen again.
Thanks to dennis8, my screen is now fixed. He linked me to this thread and it worked right away after that. Finally my freaking phone works :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

[Q] New Google Maps flickers on CM10.1

Some of you may have noticed that the new maps app flickers on MT4GS running CM10.1. I reflashed gapps with the old maps, turned off auto-updates and it still updated itself. It is just useless.
Does anyone have a solution? I doubt google cares.

Saw you mention this in one of the dev threads as well. I'm running SilverL's Unofficial CM 10.1 and haven't personally noticed this issue, while I saw someone else back you up with similar problems.
Maybe you pulled a map update I haven't seen yet? I'm showing version 6.14.4(#6140400) Web
Are you higher? Do you have a lot of layers on maybe?

Yes, version 7 is out. auto-updated earlier week on my phone. dev threads? i don't recall, posting anything, I don't think I have permission to post there.
Anyway, I figured it out. I reflashed gapps, but it doesn't contain the maps app, and that's why it was ineffective. I uninstalled version 7, and pulled the version 6 apk from a friend's phone and installed it.
I also turned off auto-update in play.

Sorry, saw someone mention it, thought it was you! Glad to hear it was sorted, I'll be sure to avoid a map update if I see one pop, but I haven't yet. Maybe it was causing issues outside of custom roms and google stopped pushing it until they got it sorted.
interesting, i was also having this issue.i was on the jellykang rom 1.8 and changed to silverL's 10.1 unofficial cm and im seeing a version 7.0.1 and it look like its working fine. ill report back if i see anything messing up again. but looking at android polices coverage of this update release reported that there were several versions getting pushed all over the place so maybe some work better than others..

Interesting. I finally popped for the map update yesterday, and after reading this I figured I'll give it a shot. I like everyone else definitely had issues with the map, the jitteryness, the menu icon on bottom left slightly off screen. I uninstalled and reverted to 6.14.4 from my backup and it's just fine again. Hope this does get fixed, the new map looks nice if it was working. Wondering if you really are issue free or just didn't notice anything real quick.
It did seem like as I was playing with location options (use network for location, gps radio on or off, let google always allow access, having a gps lock or not) sometimes it seemed like it would smooth out for a second or two, then get all glitchy again. Wonder if any official JB handsets are getting the issue, I think I know what I'll google next.

yea you were right, i just did a glance look at it and didint really dive into it that far. i checked it out again and it is still all messed up so nevermind ..
are there any custom roms that dont have the issue i wonder. maybe this can help narrow down the root cause. unless its just an inherent problem with the app as it stands today. it almost reminds me of this issues i was having with ingress when i was on stock.

Unfortunately it seems to me to be an issue with all of the 10.1's at least, and from my googling before, it seems likely specific to our device, just not sure why
Anywho, I'm pretty OK with maps 6, it works, and still has separate navi app, and is what anyone with earlier than android 4.0 is stuck with anyway.
UPDATE: So I tried the 7/22 update that I got hit with, and it's weird. Initially it seemed OK, aside from the menu button still being half off screen. After fooling around for a bit with menus and settings, it got all flickery again. It seems like it heavily had to do with overlays/prompt dialogues showing up. The box would kind of disappear aside from the outline, but still respond. After fooling around quite a bit and disabling boxes from asking again, eventually everything seems to have evened out. Now I haven't actually done any kind of navigation or heavy use, but I've been using v 7.0.2 now on and off for a few days, and the stutter hasn't come back. Wish I had a more definitive way of what I did to get rid of it, or if it eventually just smoothes out on it's own, but for now it seems like I'm good with the new maps on a CM10.1 rom.

Yes, I'm having the exact same issues as you. Screen flickers and overlay menus keep blanking out so you can't read them. I have an HTC Inspire 4G running CM 10.1. Came across this thread searching for "Maps 7 screen flicker". I had to revert back to Maps 6 as 7 was unusable!

Im running PACman ROM v22.4.0, same issue as you guys with the new maps, and navigation is a stutterfest.
I'm on jellykang 1.8 and that's definitely happening to me. especially in the navigation app
Since others are now finding this thread outside of just us DS users, I figure I'll share this idea from a dev thread:

I hadn't, but that's a wonderful suggestion, wonder if anyone else has?
Edit: So after learning how to re-enable dev options, I just tried this, and it definitely seems to WAY help. Is there any downside to leaving this checked all the time?
So something for others to try/chime in on?
Guys, can you try disabling android debugging AND USB debugging in developer options?
I saw it on a sensation ROM forum and it seems to be working for me.

Hrm, I'll try it. Just loaded maps now, it was sketchy, disabled and seemed fine. Turned back on, and it was still fine, this one seems to be crazy inconsistent.
It wotk fine on my device

possible workaround?
I found another workaround that seems to work for me:
Turn on the "Extended Desktop" (or "Expanded"? I'm on German here). And it's gone. Strangely the flickers don't return when I turn it off again.
Extended Desktop Option has to be activated in the settings, if it's not available in the power switch menu.
Counter perspective
I've just been working with the newest CM builds for the MT4GS, and I don't encounter any flickering. This is with a complete wipe prior to installing however.
same issue with HTC G2 on CM10.1
Hello,
I experienced the same issue on my HTC G2 with CM10.1. I had to revert to Maps v6...the v7 would sometime work fine, but most of the time I had some part of the screen flickering and the navigation feature was not usable at all (the animation would not work). I first thought it might be because of the overclocking. but I tried with stock frequency and the issue persisted.
My wife's Sony Ericsson Mk16a also has the same issue but on a custom stock rom..
