[Q] (HTC HD2) How do I restart Sense when it is frozen? (Without restarting device) - General Questions and Answers

I have a T-Mobile HTC HD2. I do NOT want to update it or do anything that requires a factory reset. Whenever my Sense application freezes (quite often, and usually when I open a new text), I am unable to access the Settings menu to turn off or restart Sense in the Today Screen settings, because I cannot GET to the Today settings. It simply does nothing when I tap "Settings" in the start menu. If I have to restart the phone, it takes approximately 2 minutes and 30 seconds to turn back on, which is unacceptable. I want to know how to restart a frozen Sense without restarting the Device (in a minute or less). I have tried ReSense and it does not work. I have also tried looking for the Today settings application in the File Explorer, with no success there either.

Try to use CleanRAM, and select level 3. Hope this helps, Google will be your friend.

Thanks! That worked to restart Sense and speed up my phone as well.

Hi guys,
I will let my experience here...
I had a very specific kind of freeze tha happened about 3 months since the last hard reset.
This freeze occurs this way:
- Someday (i don't know how and neither why...) when my phone restarts after about 2 to 5 minutes it freeze if still on any sense screen... and nothing works, except for push windows button that make it goes to start screen... On windows screen if I wait more than a minute to do something it freezes again and I need to push windows button again, then I can go to my folders and run any program...
- sometimes it just freezes if I push lock\end button and when I try to slide the unlocker it freezes and the only thing that works again is the start button.
- If I restart my HD2 without the memory card inside I never get any freezing at all...
- The solution: I deleted (on storage card) the "HTC" folder (in the "application data" folder and every file called "device" or "album" or "thumbnail" on storage card. On restart the phone create new files and foders like that, but the freezes disapears !!!

Help! Restart Doesn't Complete

Can someone advise me with a problem I'm currently having on my HTC Touch Cruise running WM6.0? I recently tried to uninstall a program (TomTom, which came installed on the device) but the "Remove Programs" application became locked in what seemed to be an endless loop. The progress wheel kept turning around and around without stopping. I figured out a way to use the rest of my programs but the Remove Programs application continued to run without getting anywhere. After about half an hour of this I reset the device using the recessed reset button. The device began to reboot, but got stuck on the green "Windows Mobile" screen during the reboot, and hasn't gotten any further. I've tried further resets, removing and reinstalling the battery, etc. but the device will not reboot beyond that green screen. Can anyone think of a way I can get my device up and running again without having to wipe the system? (I have some data in device memory that I don't want to lose.)
Try a hard-reset!!

I don't want to do a hard reset because I don't want to lose my data and programs.

[Q] HTC TD2 Power On-Off - Virus?

My TD2 keeps wanting to turn off - the power off screen comes up (do you want to turn off your device?). If I select yes, it shuts down and immediately restarts. If I select no, it pops up again within a few minutes.
The device doesn't respond to the power button. I can't perform a hard reset, soft reset works OK, but problem continues. IF left sitting, the phone goes to sleep but wakes up soon after and the power dialog comes up again. If I remove and replace the battery, device starts OK but problem continues.
It may be coincidence, but this started hapenning the day after I (stupidly) opened a strange MMS and tried to play the attached "video" - which didn't play.
Haven't tried to reflash ROM - not sure what ROM I should be looking for. Current ROM version is 2.31.841.6 (64646) WWE. Should I just look for that? (This is a Telstra TD2 that I have had for bout a year - bought online)
Thanks.

Phone Freezing and Won't Start Properly

Hi all,
I recently tried changing the wallpaper on my phone from a live background to regular image. The background went black and the phone froze.
I removed the battery and restarted the phone but it now often freezes on the LG logo. When it does occasionally start up the touch screen will not respond so I cannot get past my lock pattern. If I press the stand by button at the top of the phone, the screen goes off and cannot be turned on again, but the phone is still running - as I can tell this when connected to the computer.
I don't have my phone rooted and do not know much about that. I was hoping there was a way to fix this without having to lose all of my data or root/mod my phone. Otherwise I would be happy just to have my phone working.
Can anyone please help with this problem or tell me why the touch screen will not respond the times it does start up?
Cheers
UPDATE - I started the phone holding the volume button down and went into the recovery mode. I'm not sure exactly which option I then selected, as I hit the home key a couple of times, but I think it was "Clear cache and recovery" or something similar.
The phone managed to start back up with all my apps and photos, etc. Although I had to go through the startup wizard again and sign into the Market, LG World, etc.
Now I have a problem with quite a few of my apps. Whenever I click on them, they start very briefly and then I get the message "The application had stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" and have to force close. This happens with apps such as Adobe Reader, GTA 3 and Viber, so it's not a specific type of app.
I also noticed with the few apps that work, data is missing from some and not others. For example, I still have high scores in one game, but not in another.
Does anyone know what the problem is here or why this recovery is maybe causing this?
Thanks very much
Still haven't fixed this problem if anyone could please help. Most of the apps before the recovery still force close upon starting.
Some of these can be fixed temporarily by moving to phone/SD depending on location, but this only lasts for so long, before I have to move again. Others will open up each time as though it's the first opening of the app, e.g. Do you accept....
Apps downloaded after the recovery seem to work fine.
Any suggestions people?

[Q] Phone restart causes home screen to uninstall

For some reason, when i shut off my phone lately, and restart it, it starts up fine but when i unlock it, it brings up a black screen. Luckily i have titanium backup so i just pull up Google from the bottom and open titanium that way but anyway when i open it up and find the home screen, it shows as uninstalled, of course though i just re install from a backup (Thank god i have one) and then its fine. I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem and if there's something that might be causing this because i don't like having to re install the home screen every time i restart my phone.
