I'm running Cynogen 5.0.5
I never seemed to have the issue running kspec lite 1.1
I flashed Kspec 2 over top of 1.1 and started noticing the issue.
Since then I flashed NexTHEME-Revisions-2 and switched to the HelixLauncher2 but still having the issue.
If i do a reboot it fixes the issue and I haven't been able to narrow down exactly what causes it. I'm trying to replicate it. Think it's caused by flashing several themes over top of one another?

I see it from time to time, I believe if the app drawer is drawn in landscape (home screen rotated 90 degrees) the very first time it launches, it will do that. rather then rebooting, you can also just restart launcher2 (if you are still using helix, or any form of it (nextheme has helix launcher system mod)) then you can juts press menu, configure, scroll down and click restart launcher2.
that did it! I was about to do a backup and redo Cynogen and just the one theme.. That's much easier

Not sure if anyone has had this problem but I'm seeing some really odd issues, sometimes the screen starts moving really quick almost like flickering but from left to right as if I'm holding finger on the screen and moving it extremely fast. Sometimes it seems like touch screen doesn't work until I hit power and menu right after, also randomly core apps would crash.
I'm on jf1.42 rc33.
are you using any themes? I've encountered similar problems, but only after flashing multiple themes without wiping. i've never had any problems after a fresh wipe and reflash of JF 1.1*.

i'm having similar problems but wasn't sure if something i did screwed it up, i was getting random core apps crashing on 1.41 RC33 and to test a script i wrote and an app made by another i completely wiped every thing to where the phone wouldn't start at all, i achieved this with adb shell wipe all
i wouldn't suggest doing that unless you have an update.zip waiting to be flashed to your phone, i put the phone back to warrenty standards and then started EVERYTHING all over so i could test the things i wanted to. when i finished testing i rooted and put 1.42 on and it seemed a little better all day until it popped up and phone process, settings, and core all three crashed at the same time about 30 minutes ago. my flash was 100% clean as there was nothing on the phone at all including OS, i completely wiped the system partition and data and refused to flash my nandroid back up since i didn't want the same problems. i hope someone else knows what's going on and we can fix this
I went from stock rc 30, rooted, JF RC 30, Themes (many), RC 33,JF ADP 1.1, then back to RC 33.
I had an issue of contacts not syncing, and the import contacts from sim caused a core force close.
So i did a freash install of JF 1.43 RC33 and it worked again. No screen problems but I did have a few core apps force closing. It hasnt happened since my last install of RC 33. Im running a modified theme now, my own with very little changes.

No themes, if I do a wipe, what happens with paid apps that I have installed does anyone know?
Looks like it was the related to multi touch, after doing another wipe and installing a build with out multi touch the problem went away no more rapid screen movement and apps are not crashing
Whenever I try to change one of the dock icons it only changes the one on the far left. is there anyway to fix this?
How are you trying to change them?
Press and hold the icon/location in the dock that your want to replace. It'll pop up the selection for what you want.
I've changed mine from the defaults to what I wanted and then with the latest update back to the same apps I docked but using the default "ghosted" icons that come with the app.
That's what I'm doing, but it doesn't matter which icon i press it only changes the first one.
Weird...
Have you tried uninstalling and re-downloading and installing?
Just tried this myself (didn't know you could even change the icons before) and it does the same thing for me. I tried to change the Messaging icon to GMail, and it changed the Phone icon on the left instead. Confirmed as far as I'm concerned.
mine change, no problem. droid incredible.

Just set up LauncherPro myself yesterday and all icons are changing fine for me. G1 running SuperE 1.0.2 at the moment...
And the person with the Incredible can't be running CM because as far as I know, the Incredible is still unrooted.
That was my point.... You're not running CM either. It's not a problem with LauncherPro. It's a problem with LauncherPro and CM. Anyone not running CM will work fine. Anyone running any CM5.0.7+ will have problems. THis is the point I'm trying to make.
After about 4 months of being rock solid, my Transformer has started acting up this past week. After about a day of use, the homescreen will freeze up, stop responding to touch, and then have to be force-closed. After Launcher restarts, it will immediately crash again. During this crash cycle, I am unable to launch any new apps - however, I can switch between my already open apps using the "Recent Apps" button, no problem - they will even run perfectly for hours. But to launch new apps, I have to reboot. (NOTE: this is different than the well-known issue where the homescreen icons disappear, but swiping/touching still works. In my case, the icons and widgets are just "stuck" there.)
Things I have tried: Cold boot, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, change to static wallpaper. (problem still recurs)
I am using the same ROM/kernel/OC/UV settings that I always have (1.2 GHz, -25 mV on all).
I'm stumped. Anyone else see this?
I have the same kind of issue since 3 days ago. Launcher crashing, no icons on desktop but can switch between empty desktop. "Recent Apps" available. Cold reboot helps but problem will recurs. Stock Asus ROM, Android 4.0.3, kernel 2.6.39.4.
Hi slybin, yours is actually the more common issue - disappearing icons, but swipe/touch works. Mine is the opposite - the icons are visible, but swipe/touch does NOT work.
I'm guessing you are on stock kernel? Disappearing icons is fixed with Guevor's kernel, or possibly others.
Im on team eos JB and never faced any of the issues you mentioned above.. try flashing a different ROM after wiping everything...
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda app-developers app
zAlbee: Yes, I'm on a stock kernel. I just find it strange that it suddenly started Monday without any new kernel update from Asus.
udupa82: I saw that EOS is developed on the Xoom, did you had any other issue with that ROM? Which build did you use?
So, I've been having issues with my TF101 for a while now. At first I thought it was ROM related, but I've seen this issue across a couple different ROMs, including the stock ICS update. The issue is that frequently, the launcher will crash and restart when swiping off the main homescreen. Other times, the UI overlay will crash. That is to say, the icons and everything will vanish, but the background will still be there. Sometimes a widget might be frozen on the screen (it's visible regardless of swiping, and you can't interact with it). I can still swipe, the background is still visible scrolling, and if you know where something should be, you can even tap it and it will open. Has anyone else experienced this? I've noticed the issue in the stock ICS launcher, Apex, or Trebuchet. When it happens, I either have to restart or at least re-apply the system them. Even the lock screen UI vanishes.
FWIW, my TF101 is a B60 unit, rooted, running RaymanFX's CM10 (4.1.2) ROM, and TWRP.
So no one's seen this kind of issue before?
I have a similar problem. Hitting the "home" button (it never disappears) solves the problem, no need for other apps or reboot or anything. I just plain hit the home button and everything reappears.

Sometimes, my UI vanishes, but if I wait about 10 seconds or so, it comes back. I guess the launcher crashes, but is automatically restarted by the kernel. I use the K.A.T kernel, maybe that is better with the re-launch when it crashes?
Hi guys. Apologies if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find anything that was exactly this issue.
Galaxy S3 running Alliance rom v22 with (though I had the same issue with v21).
Using Nova Launcher 2.3 or TW Launcher (haven't tried any other launchers)
When closing an app or the app drawer using the home button, many times the screen just goes black. I have to hit the power button to turn the display off, then again to turn it on to get anything to show on the display. I thought it may have been something with the Nova Launcher, so I tried TW, and had the same issue. I have done multiple clean wipes and installs with this and the v21 Alliance rom. Not sure it matters, but I am currently using the Beans Stock kernel, but saw the same issues with the Lean kernel.
This happens at least 10 times a day and is getting very aggravating, to the point where I went back to the 4.1.3 Jelly Beans rom after trying v21. I came back when v22 was released hoping something may have changed. Does anyone have any ideas of settings I might change or something like that that could fix this? Thanks!
