Easy fix for that..
In your /system/build.prop add the following as the last line, make sure you hit enter at the end of the line, save the file and reboot.
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1
it will lock the launcher in memory so it won't have to reload.
You need to be rooted to do this, and a good file manager is "es-file explorer" look for it in the market, and in its options, remember to activate root access an mount system as read/write.
If I have helped, please click the Thanks button.

When you say rooted are you saying my phone has to be flashed? Because I really don't want to root it since its still under Warranty.. Thanks.

OK, well, if you don't want to root your phone, then you will have to have a look at some of the Apps or widgets you have loaded, one of them is taking too much memory. Call htc support, they are quite good.
Only way to add that line in your build.prop file is if your phone is rooted so I can't help you.
Warmly, Marty

I have encountered this problem and a factory reset has solved it.
Are you using HTC Agenda calendar ? For me that was the reason. Try editing it and leave only the calendar that actually needs to be synced ie your gmail.
Thanks Marty. Pikabat, I do use that but I need all the agendas, outlook (exchange) for work, gmail for personal, and facebook just because why not if I can. I really don't want to not use a feature that HTC made, but did not look at how it can affect other applications/sense. HTC needs to give us an update and add that line Marty mentioned (if possible) .. Let me know if there are any better alternatives. Thanks guys!

You can still use the app though right? It's probably just the widget thats causing this problem.
Alternatively, you can use a launcher replacement like Launcher Pro. That's what I did because I got tired of dealing with it refreshing.

Nice Thanks for the tip
Worked Great !
did you install anything recently? I had this problem after installing swype, it would restart after every app install, very annoying
Try defragmenting your micro sd and checking for errors. I had a problem just this morning whenever I go to friend stream widget screen, sense would restart. I defragmented my micro sd and let windows check and fix errors, problem went away after that. Worth a try. Maybe it was just a coincidence though. give it a shot, what have you got to loose.
Try using a different skin (not provided by htc). look in the themes section, it should stop it or at least reduce it's frequency.
Same problem on my girls phone and was in the line with T-Mobile for 1hr one day and 15 mins the next and they are sending her a new phone after a hard reset and removal of the b of a app that suppose to cause all her BS
Oh and they also told me over the phone on the first time I called that HTC was aware and wouldn't trade the phone out for another. So I called 3 days later and I had the option for an LG g2x or another sensation ......... why the option I asked? She said it just popped up on her screen so I'm thinking there is a flaw with this phone. Let me know if anyone else falls in this category.

Ive been haivng this issue for a while now so was running another launcher.
Having read all the threads, I Did this...
Defragged the SD card and I also changed the theme/skin I was running.
It's a branded (ROM) Vodafone sensation, so I changed to the standard HTC theme/skin that looks the same.
And Hey Presto,
no more crashing at all. Not one since yesterday lunchtime.
So not sure if it is the skin or the defrag, but mine isnt crashing anymore at the moment.

Okay I found the answer on another thread on another site dat I don't remember but all I have to do is
Use root explorer or another file manager with root access
Go to system and edit the build prop file
And then add this line: ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1

Decided to go onto the markeylt to have a look for some alps as you do when I noticed the now on the market where it has the 3 short cut options apps games and my apps now shoes apps games and vodafone.... On there is a bunch of apps they reccomend, apps I already know about and don't use because I don't want to so I was a little annoyed to see the my apps button removed
You branded vodafone

I have a thread open about this. Restart the phone and it goes back to normal. I don't think we were supposed to see this yet. I'm expecting it to become permanent in the future, perhaps to coincide with a ROM update.

Unbranded handsets still say 'HTC' instead of My Apps - looks like it's going no matter what
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15401386&postcount=15
Ive just noticed an app in my app drawer called Vodafone Rescue. Im sure it wasnt there before. As anyone else got this?
Found its description HERE.
I think it can be uninstalled but im sure ive never noticed that before.
yea you are right this wasnt there before, I noticed this on my first sensation when I sent it back and got a new one it wasnt there, it appeared when I had to restart my phone, the Vodafone Branding came on the market and the Rescue service also appeared.
I assume its remote access if you are having problems, voda can take controle of your phone and sort any issues.
Can it be related to which SIM card you have in your phone? I have a Vodafone branded Sensation but still with the SIM card of my current operator (going to Vodafone in a month) and in the market it still says My Apps.
I would assume that vodafone send down some form of 'Ping' at some point that adds Vodafone Rescue and changes the market menu link, but I cant be 100% sure, but I would assume it has something to do with the sim
Unbranded FW now says 'HTC' instead of My Apps but you can still get it by going Menu>My Apps
cheers eddie, i feel the removal of apps on android is a drawn out task, I know using launcher pro enables you to drag and drop apps inot the bin to uninstall but I would think this should be a standard feature
Just had this chat with Htc:
I do have rescue but i can't see any changes to the market, and i have restarted phone recently.... Hmmm....
the quicker we get s-off with perma root, the better. I dont like how vodafone have the ability and right to install their crap without permission or warning, on a device I own and that I have paid for.
Custom unbranded rom please!
Oke folks i have a simple question.
I need a WORKING call policy app, i dont care whether paid or free. I've tried several apps from Android Market but theres one problem with them, neither runs in background or automatically starts after phone restart. Even if the description says they do ... they dont, like Call Manager PRO for instance. All i need from this app is when i set up a time interval, example 8PM-8AM, only certain phone numbers will be able to call me/reach me in this time period, rest will get either redirected or sent back SMS with some random "not available, will call laters" sms. I was getting through out the Sensation apps and setting and theres nothing like that build-in by default, unlike iPhone for example.
Is it realy so hard to find a working app, which doesnt autoclose when i start another app or auto starts after phone restart. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Use root call blocked pro. I have been using it for a month now. Works for me.

I purchased a motoactv and couldn't use the notification feature because the app is only able to be downloaded on a Motorola handset through Android Market. I have a HTC Sensation and i get the yellow banner in market.
I was wondering if someone maybe has the Motoactv apk and could lend it out?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
you would get my eternal love and gratitude as well if you could post it! but how do you like yours so far MarsVoltron?
I love the concept of receiving notifications on my
Wrist since i always miss phone calls AND texts.
I just can't use the feature since I'm with HTC and not MOTO
I wish it did have more options for personalization, EQ for music, or use it as a remote to control music already on your Android device.
But until I get the MOTOACTV app its a big waste of cash.
Do you also have one?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
I tried messing around with my Nook to fool the market into thinking it was a motorola, no luck so far. I hope somebody with a moto phone can get this apk!
I will have a Motorola Droid a little later. I looked on Motorola's list of compatible phones and it was listed.
I was wondering what would be the easiest way to pull the apk? It's my friends phone and don't wanna mess it up.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
The way I've done it is to just install mybackup from the market, back up the app to the sd card, put the sd card in the computer and open the folder it backed up to. There will be an apk right inside the folder.
Would love for this app to work with my HTC Glacier Mytouch 4G. The fitness tracker isn't cheap and I want the full functionality. A thank you in advance to anyone that can pull the apk.
Yeah I know exactly how you feel. I purchased it primarily for the the notification feature. My guess is we probably won't see anything till a little bit after the new Razr is launched.
But ill have a droid later and pull it from there.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
i got the apk off a droid 2 but couldn't get it to install on my EVO, it would just fail saying application not installed, its attached in case any of you can figure out
after looking into it further it seems like the install fails because it requires access to com.motorola.blur.contacts.permission and blur.service.blur.Permissions.INTERACT_BLUR_SERVICE which both don't exist on my EVO...
anyone know a way around this?
Thanks for posting the apk. I found a way to remove the Blur permissions and it installed on my Samsung charge. I don't get the watch until tomorrow, but it looks like the app is working fine Someone with one check it out and let me know.

awesome...it worked! You da man! I don't know if future updates will install but this is definitely awesome, can you share how you removed the permissions so I'll know how to do it for future updates?
by the way...just tested it with my EVO and the watch and it works great, tried a few test txts and got the notification on the watch, and it listed the contact name too
Awesome I'm glad it works! I just searched around xda for some info on editing apk files and found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695701
Once you get it extracted there is a file named AndroidManifest.xml I opened it with notepad deleted the blur permissions, then used that app to repackage and sign the app. It was kind of a crap shoot on my part but it worked the first try
Awesome! Great job loaded on and paired with my watch perfectly I just have a problem receiving calls through the watch. Doesn't ring or anything with or without a headset attached.

Did you unzip the app first? I guess I didn't really need to zip it, try this one.
Thanks
Thanks guys have it installed on my Casio Commando, It is working great with text messages.
I dont have it working with phone calls but I think it is because I have standard headphones installed (no microphone) I will test that later.
Thanks a million
This is my first post but as someone who is striving to lose 30 more pounds after losing 55, this is awesome work. I own the EVO and this connectivity was the dealbreaker for me. For Motorola-tied huge to google to hitch their wagon to only Moto phones is a joke, especially on a device that runs Android.
Enough of my rant, thanks again for enabling this on other phones!!

I might be wrong on this, but you might need to pair the headset with the phone and not the watch. So both the watch and the headset are paired with the phone, give it a try.
For as long as T-mobile has allowed it, I've always had issues with it randomly disappearing then appearing regardless of what I do. Just to confirm modifying wasn't the cause, I completely restored my device to its out-of-box state to no avail. I've cleared the cache, uninstalled and reinstalled, installed different versions of the market, etc but still nothing
Then one day out of the blue, there it was. The very next day, gone. Not sure if this has been address before, and it's not a major issue, it simply annoys the hell out of me not knowing the cause! Anybody know why?

Very annoying!
Now as far as I know this happens if the app you are trying to purchase has to be paid to an account outside of the USA, but it seems like you were trying to purchase 4ext which I was easily able to pay with tmobile account

I had that too and it's not a problem with sense its the sense keyboard. If it says sense input then that's what it is. You can solve it by downloading another keyboard and put it in your sd card. Then Install it. You probably can't even download it from your phone so download it from your computer as an apk then send it through a usb. 4shared.com is a really good place to find apps for free
