I have had my TF for a week and the keyboard dock for a day. Love them both. I do have one quirk to deal with, however. A couple of days ago, my TF began booting to the screen one frame to the left of my homescreen (to #2 instead of #3). I would like to fix this annoyance. Does anyone know the secret?
Follow-up question: Does anyone know the magical procedure to set which of the five screens is their home screen?
You have obviously installed some app or launcher which is making it do this. You'll have to start uninstalling things a few at a time to see which one is causing it.

I don't know if I just never noticed this since I just got the phone on Friday but every time I slide out the keyboard, it'll show the landscape home screen for a few seconds and then open up the phone and I have to hit home to get back. Same when I slide the keyboard back in. I have changed a couple things like the clock, icons, slider, landscape icons, and so that the portrait left softkey opens contacts instead of phone. Any ideas? Thanks!
im actually having the same problem, everytime i open up the phone say to respond to a text message or something the phone screen (dialer screen) pops up and i have to close it and then go back to my text message inbox.
anyone know whats causing this?
This is a known problem that HTC needs to do something about. Some of the custom ROM's tend to do this with less frequency.
Same problem here! Have had the phone for around 3 weeks, just started happening yesterday.
Any solutions?
Thread isn't getting much attention.
I flashed NATF's latest Raphael RoOM (4.1) around a week ago, and I haven't had the problem again.

I believe theres a reg edit for this, but you must re enable it after a while.
Hi i had thesame problem, is something to do with animated taskbar icons, uninstal them and see whats hapened
I've encountered a problems/bugs with the main Sense Home Screen Clock:
1)
Very occasionally when I resume/power on the phone, the clock does not correctly roll over to the actual time, it still shows the last time that the phone was at when the phone was previously powered on, simply moving from one home screen to another or pressing the power button a couple of times resolves this.
This has happened twice now, that I've noticed....in the last fortnight, since I've had the phone, as I don't wear a watch this is extremely annoying, and the reason why I've happened to notice this.
Fortunately I've not yet missed a plane/train/bus or engagement! But surely its only a matter of time (no pun intended!)
Has anyone else noticed this? this must be a Sense software problem and therefore hopefully fixable.
2)
The second is not so much a bug but a cosmetic annoyance, its the way that it the clock always rolls over hours and minutes to the actual time, rather than simply saving the animation and showing the real time to start with, I know on my Diamond2 with Sense in WM6.5 I applied a fix to stop it doing this which simply removed the animation, any ideas if this is possible on DesireS with Android.
As someone without a watch I don't want to wait for animation to complete each time, I want to know what the time is straight away
Thanks
Perhaps you may want to try Beautiful Widget.
It almost had the same clock as the HTC Sense, minus the animation.

hey guys
i just got my nexus s yesterday and i've been experiencing some touch screen responsiveness issues.
it only happens during the homescreen. whenever i'm swiping through homescreens, it would not respond to the touch at all, except sometimes when pressed slowly with lots of force. everything else (unlocking device, app drawer, texting, everything) responded well EXCEPT swiping through homescreens...
a simple reboot fixed this problem and i havn't seen it happen yet so far, but has anyone else had something like this happen to them?
-----------------------------
also, when i'm trying to put a new event into the calendar, i get the message:
"You have no calendar"
any way to fix this issue?
Thanks,
----------------------------
edit: sorry for the long post, but is there any way to get back the old market? the new one is quite laggy on my phone.. (it automatically updated itself the second time i opened market)
Hello everyone,
I have my Nexus 5 since january. It`s been a really great experience.
I love to customize my N5. I am always changing icons, wallpapers and lockscreen looks.
For that, I keep looking for new apps in foruns like this, or Mycolorscreen, or Deviantart and etc.
One of this days, I found these lockscreen apps:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lockscreen.galaxy
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lockscreen.optimus
and
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lockscreen.sony
All of them are from the same developer. They are really beautiful, well designed and I was very happy with the look and experience that those apps gave me.
But soon I notice something strange when I first boot my phone in the morning: the N5 kept the home screen lit... It did not matter how many times I pushed the main button, trying to turn the scrren off and get the lockscreen working. I also noticed that the apps that usually open in the first boot were not getting started. Their notifications were not showing up. The screen kept ligthen up in my homescreen...
I was suspecting that these apps that were working properly before the installation of the three lockscreen apps above, were "fighting" with the new apps (the lockscreen apps). As the lcokscreen apps are from the same developer, I figured that they were the problem. So I unsitalled them. The apps that have always been working fine before the lockscreen apps have been installed are:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rageconsulting.android.lightflow
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.rgruet.android.g3watchdog
and
http://www.amazon.com.br/MacroPinch-Bateria-Pro/dp/B0085YOD1A/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1399848399&sr=8-3&keywords=bateria
I have been using the stock lockscreen since then...
Today (May 11th), I found the following lockscreen app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.qiigame.flocker.global
and decided to give it a try. And I loved it. It is a very beautiful lockscreen.
But after trying it for some time, learning how to use it... I reeboted my N5...
Unfortunally, the issue I (tried to) describe above happened again. After reeboting, the screen got lightened all the time. I push the main button and the scrren did not turn off. 3G watchdog, Battery and Lighfolw don`t show the notifications of starting up.
So, I am back in Nexus 5 sotck lockscreen!
I would love to use these lockscreen apps. But I don`t know what is going on. Can someone pelas help me???
I am sorry if this thread is confused. It is not easy to try to explain it in english. lol
I think this is just a case of buggy apps. I read through reviews for these apps from nexus 5 users, others are experiencing the same problems. The author of the last lock screen app you are using said to try going into the apps setting and choose "home button settings" and follow the three steps there, whatever those are, to solve your problem.
Anyone seen SEVERE lag (5s+) with Apex when going to the home screen? This all started a couple of weeks ago, every time the phone wakes up from a prolonged sleep, e.g. in the morning. I pull down the notifications bar, see emails arrived overnight, go straight to Gmail, read the emails then tap home to go to my home screen.... and nothing happens for a LONG time, sometimes in excess of 10s, but at least 5s. Not sure when I first noticed it and whether it was triggered by an Apex update or me installing something else. Things I have tried that make no difference:
1) Uninstall and reinstall Apex
2) Force quite Apex and flush its cache
3) Flush Davlik
4) Remove all widgets on all screens - on the assumption that Apex may be waiting on one of them to auto-update its info
When I switch from Apex to LG Home the problem goes away, but now I end up with a launcher that is always a tad laggy and not nearly as nice. I really would rather not give up Apex, so if anyone has suggestions please speak up. Thanks!
Desperation bump... I am seeing somewhat similar behavior on a tablet with completely different hardware running some other ROM so I am starting to think that it is partially APEX. However, even XGELS is showing this issue to an extent - every once in a while out of the blue it will lag for 1s or so. I am almost ready to wipe and reinstall from scratch. Any suggestions before I go through that pain?
Humm. I'll have to check over the next few days to see if it's Apex or Timely. I have had occasions where it has taken a bit for the phone to get back on-line. So far it seems a Timely issue, but I will get back here with a follow up on the coming weekend.
