Home button goes to dock?!?! - HTC Sensation

My sensation home button just recently started taking me to this dock!!! I never told it too!!! Is anyone else's doing that and is there a fix!! It drives me crazy!!!

What dock???? Assuming it is some app you should try clearing defaults in the application.

mine went mad yesterday and started taking screen shots everytime i pressed the homekey. related to the touchscreen issue perhaps?

My brothers did the same **** right after he updated, I had him disable the quick reboot in settings and pull the battery. Worked fine since.

Dock Home is an app that is included with the Sensation. I think it is an HTC app that comes on automatically when you dock your phone with the HTC Desk dock. You can also find it in your list of apps. All it appears to do is produce a single page homescreen with only a few bits of information on it and with few ways you can change it.
So pretty useless I guess, unless somebody knows any more about it.

I tried this on my lock screen and it worked.

Try it at own risk, I am not responsible for any problems. It worked for me
This is my second sensation with the same issue. I got my second sensation approximately 6 days ago, after my first sensation developed the lock screen issues. Well today I started to experience the same lock screen issues that plagued my first sensation. Well I did a little checking around and I think I might have found a solution to the problem. I have an app installed called mybackup pro. I have been using this app for a while and it has come in real handy in restoring my phone. There is a free version available in the market. I used the paid version. I opened mybackup pro, and I just like to say that I DON'T HAVE anything to do with the app in regards to any monetary gain, basically I just use the app. I opened the ap, i clicked on cancel for the password, clicked on back up, data, local (/mnt/sdcard) check all, and let it back up all the settings. Well I went into my settings/applications/manageapplications/all. i then clicked on the first htc sense tab and cleared the data. You will be prompted with something to the pop up stating that all the applications data will be permanently deleted. I clicked ok and then clicked on the second htc sense tab and did the same thing. You will notice that all your widgets and everything will be deleted from your phone. I rebooted my phone and then opened mybackup pro and clicked on restore, data, local (/mnt/sdcard), data and the most resent date, I ONLY CHECKED MARKED SYSTEM SETTINGS, ANDROID HOME, AND CLICKED ON OK. Let it do its thing and when it is finished it will ask you to reboot your phone. Your phone should be extremely close to the way you had it before (widget wise). And in my case my lock screen is working again. I hope this helps anyone else. Again, It worked for me.

Please update this thread periodically even if your method doesn't work.
Did this allow sense to operate more smoothly on your device?
I don't even understand what the issue was meant to be in the first place!!
Sorry for the long entry but i was trying to be as specific as i possibly could for everyone, and yes my lock screen responds perfectly.
This post was meant for anyone experiencing lockscreen unresponsiveness on their phones.

I already tried clearing the data from both Sense applications and then rebooted my phone. I didn't make a back up of everything so Sense was back to the way it came from the factory. Long story short. It didn't work for me. I still had the lock screen issue.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
also another trick to faulty lockscreen found on another post, when the phone lay flat on table lock seems to be trouble to unlock unless u pick the phone up in ur hands...but if u have it laying on table flat and grab left side of lock and drag it to the left and the up it works everytime for me...seems the left part of the lockscreen is always ok lol (something to do with phone being grounded)
Ok, the only difference is that I restored my settings using mybackup pro. Could that have been the difference.

I think the way the app and ring move together is what causes the lock issue. I think its just the physics of the ring/app moving together causing the issue. Thats my guess. Other than the lockscreen buggy I have no touch screen issues. YOU?
Wifi problem and as of today the lock screen issue started. He lockscreen issue has been resolved.

Yup, I think I agree with that. There are some issues that just don't make any sense though. Why does it become responsive after touching the ring two to three times. It will stay responsive like it should until you turn the display off. I just can't wrap my finger around it.
Could it be something with sense?

Probably is. I seriously don't know why everyone praises HTC. They are going in the wrong direction with Sense. Instead of making it less intrusive, there making it more intrusive with SENSELESS eye candy. HTC needs to take a page out of Samsung's book in my opinion. There making there UI (Touch Wiz) less intrusive but still keeping the features that make Android better.
Sorry to say but this 3D eye candy isn't making anything better and it's quite obvious HTC half assed Sense 3.0.

Are you charging this via the stock charger, or via USB pc? If using a wall charger is the outlet grounded or the old two prong style outlet? I had this issue when using the stock charger in an ungrounded outlet when I was at a friends house for the week.

I don't know if this works for you guys .. but I had that lockscreen issue as well. I noticed that when I play with my wifes phone its perfectly smooth and unlocks with a single swipe. And she can unlock mine easily and never been a problem.The only thing difference is that she didn't take off that screen protector. I have oily skin type so I guess it must be my finger getting sticky. Went to tmobile and got a screen protector and it solves all the problem. Sounds silly but it worked for me and I haven't had a single lockscreen issue in four days as opposed to 4 out of five times before. Hope this helps ..

Had phone for one week, no longer recognizing fast swipes.

For the first week, I could do a fast swipe across my home screen to get it spinning. Worked 100% of the time. As of yesterday, it literally no longer recognizes these swipes. It won't move at all, or sometimes it will think I clicked on an app instead of swiping.
Same thing applies to the lock screen. I have to slowly bring up the ring to unlock. Extremely irritating.
What saddens me is this happened on my first phone as well after about a week (exchanged that phone because of dust). Looks like it wasn't just that phone.

Same thing happened to me. Seems like after a week things get funky. Probably just some crappy software coding because the Evo3d doesn't have that problem at all.

Same thing happened to me last week. Thought it was because I had installed a bunch of apps, but it wasn't that. What I did was I cleaned the phone with a cloth (inside & out) and VIOLA, it started swiping fast again.

Seems like a grounding issue, but we don't exactly know what's causing the problem. It works sometimes, doesn't work others.
This really sucks. Just the other day I could get it to spin with one swipe. It's impossible to do with any amount of swipes now.
I have to double swipe to get it to work. I have to kill all the running processes in the quick settings first.
What's the point of the carousel super spin? Mine doesn't do it unless I hit it just right, but in my eyes its a total novelty.

Agree, not just useless but a waste of time if you trigger it accidentally. Sense REALLY needs a "performance" setting that disables all the animation crap, like Windows has. That sliding home screen after unlocking is also really silly. I want snap, not spins and gradual fades. If they want to make everyone happy they need to maximize customization.

Yes we all agree that the effect itself is not important. But it shows the responsiveness of the touchscreen. If you cant get it to spin, your phone feels like ass when you swipe things.Well hell not just swiping, anything touch related. I removed my sim card, battery and SD card to take it back and exchange it and all of a sudden it started working great. Has been flawless for the past few days, real happy! until today.. I left it on the roof of my car and it hit the road at about 55 and got ran over multiple times. I couldn't find it when i went back to try and save my sim for the trusty N1 but my Bluetooth earpiece came on when in the vicinity and i actually got a phone call when i was waiting to cross the road to pick up the carcass. Had to use the BT though unlocking on the screen would slice your fingers open. So now i'm back to a non responsive touchscreen! DAMMIT! I finished it off prying it open to get the sim, battery and SD card out. Asurion replacement to be here Friday.
I had the same problem after three weeks of the touch screen working perfectly. I followed the instructions in the touch screen issues thread and it fixed it!. I didn't even wait an hour like it said. Turn off your phone, take the battery out, put the back cover back on, hold the pet button for like 15 seconds then Open it up and put the battery back in and turn it on. Worked for me!

That process didn't work at all for me. Left the battery out for just over an hour. All screen issues of being unresponsive are still there. No fast scrolling and lockscreen issue getting quite bad. Can't get carousel at all anymore. And it takes about 5 tries to unlock lockscreen.

T-Mobile Sensation 4G screenshot bug

So I found a bug where in I was able to take screenshots when pressing the home button. But it would happen everytime I pressed the home button so I kept taking screenshots all the time. This happened when I just sent a message on Gtalk, the keyboard was still active and pressed home and it said something along the lines of screenshot saved. The only way to stop this was to turn it off then on, but the first try to press the power down button, it did not want to turn the screen off.
Anyway, just letting the crowd know out there what they could expect. Seems more bugs that I've personally come across than before the update.
This is annoying the hell out of me!
Since the update I did earlier this has happened numerous times and the only way out of it is pressing the arrow key.
It goes back to normal after a few minutes then acts up again...
VERY odd.
Just checked out some other forums. This seems to be a pretty common error. The update did provide the ability to take a screen shot by holding the power button and hitting the home key.

If interested, there is a temporary workaround if you are rooted.
That is, edit your build.prop file (/system/build.prop) with terminal or file explorer with root privileges and look for the line "ro.htc.framework.screencapture = true".
Either comment this line ("#") or change "true" to "false" then save build.prop and reboot twice.
THIS WILL DISABLE BUILT-IN SCREEN SHOOTS!! But it will also get rid of this bug.
Now go grab an app from Market if you need to take screen shoots, but don't like this bug.

Also the power button doesn't always turn the screen off and vice versa, it doesn't always turn it on. The screen comes on by itself at random times and sometimes when you press the power button, the screen turns off but then back on by itself.

Has anyone heard more on this? My girlfriend's phone is doing it and she's afraid of voiding her warranty by rooting it.
Is there a way to stop this bug without the rooting of the phone ?
Mine just did this for the first time today. I didn't even know the Sensation was capable of taking screenshots until the home button just randomly started snapping them today. That was annoying.

Another Confirmed Bug After OTA Update (Involves Putting Phone Into Standy)

Another bug to report with the new OTA. If you missed the first one, here it is:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226052
Multiple users have told me that they have this problem also. I thought it was just me at first, but since this seems to be an issue for others, attention should be drawn to it.
I have a phone-lock issue with the phone now after the update.
Basically, the phone doesn't register my first power button click to put the phone on standby.
I have to hit it twice for the phone to drop to standby.
At first, I thought it was a hardware issue, but I never have a problem waking the phone from standby. Therefore, it's not the power button. It's a problem with the update.
Anybody else have this? Any workarounds? Solutions?
I'm actually having the opposite problem. I sometimes have to press the power button twice to wake it up. And my battery life is so much worse now, other than that, I haven't noticed anything else for now.

I am definitely having that problem as well, looking for a way to just turn off screenshots until needed.
I´ve no problem at all after upgrade. My sensation was untouched before OTA message came and it was installed smooth and fast.
Battery usage are not known yet but after 6 hours it´s act like normal !!
None of mentioned issues on my Sensation after OTA (Central Europe - stock ROM, never rooted/S-OFFed/whatever).
To be perfectly honest, my Sensation went only better in all ways
I am having this same issue- but after the second time i hit the power button to wake up, the phone reboots. Is anyone else experiencing this??
Its dont it like 2-3 times today....happened a couple of other times since i updated a week ago.
Not had these issues at all. Did with my old Desire funnily enough, though
It has something to do with the home screen capture feature I'm pretty sure. If you press home in between the lock button taps it'll keep on takin shots. Random

Also I am running a custom ROM, Android Revolution HD 3.0.0, which is based on the WWE 2.3.4 rom.

Yup, if you try taking a screen shot with home and power button, then try to put it into standby, the phone definitely does show this problem.
I have the same problem. Power button is very buggy and doesn't turn the screen on every time and likewise, doesn't turn it off everytime. Screen comes on by itself at random times and sometimes when you press the power button, screen goes off but comes back on immediately.
just a question, is this a problem with sensation owners who went for the OTA from stock or those from S-OFF then installed the OTA, etc.?
no asian OTA as of the moment, i hope HTC pulls out a fix right away

Mytouch 4g slide keeps freezing

Hey all, i don't know if there's already a thread about this but i did a quick search and didn't really find one about my problem.
Anyways, my girlfriend has a mytouch 4g slide and it keeps freezing on her. If she's in a call, she can stay in the call but won't be able to hang up or use the screen in any way until a restart. She is completely stock. This is the second mytouch for her with the same problem. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

Well when I was stock, I never had any problems like this. I have heard about people having screen freezes with regards to the call screen, however. It could easily be one of the apps that she downloaded. It might be worth it to try a factory reset if the problem is persistent. Not to mention that sounds like a pretty annoying issue.
Yeah, we tried a factory reset before and it didn't work.

Huh, I talked to her more about this issue and it seems that it only freezes during a call. She didn't realize it until I asked her specifically about it. So any way to fix this issue.

If a factory reset doesn't solve your problem, you have two options:
Root and install a custom rom (could be a stock rom problem, even though it shouldn't be)
Get it replaced under warranty
is the device completely frozen, or can she get the screen to turn on by pressing the trackpad or something? come to think of it, the sensor doesn't seem to work perfectly on my device, so sometimes when i want to hang up a call, i need to press the trackpad to get the screen to turn on. i have never had the device become totally unresponsive tho.
Well, she says the screen is on but nothing happens when she taps it. The only way so far to get her phone to work again is a battery pull.
This is already a warranty replaced phone for the same problem. I would root her phone, but she is in San Francisco and I'm not. She is also not very tech savvy so she can't do it herself.

Have her try using GO! Dailer/Contacts. I know this issue is based within the Call Out screen. But try using GO! It can also an out of Ram issue. On stock, the more widgets you use. The worse the phone gets. You'll see that HTC Logo all the time. My Uncle has this phone, and he's 100% stock. He gets freezes, and the HTC Logo screen after every app. Since the phone has the highest priority in a call, in can be using to much RAM. Then the phones doing a Rosie reboot with out the HTC scrreen.
If she wants to. Install Zeam Launcher. She won't have any Sense widgets. But it'll free up about 120Mb of Ram. Then place the call, and see if it lags.

After a warranty replacement for my old phone, I haven't had time to fight rooting and have been experiencing similar issues... Memory mgmt seems to be cause. Ive removed some apps and it has reduced issues.
On initial use of phone, I reset it, inserted a full battery and followed the general "let it set" rules for a fresh rom install. At first, all was great, everything worked perfect. But as I added apps, it grew less stable. Also seeing phone freeze when rebooting into recovery... Eek. Tried multiple sd cards, batteries, to no avail.
Gonna call for another replacement. Ugh. Wrty is up in a couple months...

I've had a couple of freezes happen to me during phone calls and I realize what the problem was. It was apps automatically downloading in the background from the Play Store. If an auto update for apps is happening and I receive a phone call at the same time my phone will become unresponsive for a few minutes.
