White HTC screen after exiting to home

As the subject says, whenever I exit an app or the browser, it goes to the white htc screen and then it says loading for abt 15 second and it'll take me back home. Anyone know what causes this?

Are you using a task killer?
Sounds suspiciously like rosie is being killed by something every time it goes to the background.

it's a RAM issue! I solved it by uninstalling the new Market App (I cannot use the new functionality here in Europe, anyway) and other services that I didn't used that I had running in the background!
Problem solved!
With all the love I have for my Sensation, I feel HTC should have gone with more memory!!

How can I get the old market back?

I would have to say it's HTC's over-bloated Sense that is the problem. With CM7 I always have 300-200 Mb of unused memory. I can run games, videos, anything memory intensive and still never use it all.
As for the white screen when hitting home... It's a memory issue with Sense. I would get that back when I ran stock ROM.

inspire stuck on htc screen! [will pay whoever helps]

wrong section...delete please

How long has it sat on the HTC screen? Are you sure it is the bootloader HTC screen? All ROMs, when fresh installed, will show the white HTC logo after opening the lock screen the first time while loading the setup wizard. It can take up to a couple minutes(and even longer, once for me) to get past it.

Check the md5 sum as well. Best bet is to redownload it all together and start fresh.

Ignore that, read my signature first
You should First try the three button restart, which is volume up + volume down + power button
then try adb restart....(see Sig) you'll need adb and drivers installed
If that doesn't work then and only then remove battery

+1. The three button restart and adb are handy. But more often than not, in a system freeze, both become unresponsive and a battery pull is the only remainnig option...you could use that as a final resort, as suggested by most members on our forums.
Or simply do what i do, if battery pull is the only option remaining... which is to still not pull the battery!!
I just leave the phone aside and forget about it. Ususlly, in about half an hour or so, it reboots on it's own. It sounds counter-intuitive, i know, but this happens, probably because i've had the patience to actually let the phone sit untouched without fidgeting around.
Sometimes it doesn't reboot on its own. In those cases, i just let it sit there and allow the battery to run out (it will discharge to 0% at sometime you know; we're not using nuclear power for cellphones just yet!!)
Once it switches off after running out of power, you can connect it to the charger and reboot into recovery and do what needs to be done.
In my experience with flashing ROMs and other add-on stuff, which i do all the time, i've encountered system freeze in new and beta builds a total of 8 times. In 5 of them, the system froze while booted up into a ROM, and the first phenomenon that i have mentioned above, happened, i.e an auto-restart in 30-60 mins. On the other 3 occasions, incompatible beta flashes rendered phone unresponsive at HTC splash screen and i had to wait it out before the phone discharged itself, and then i picked it up from there.
It does take a little patience, but after knowing full well that a battery pull often results in permanent damage to the DS, it would be really foolish and cavalier on anybody's part to do it, just because you can't wait a few hours! Saves you a lot of sleepless hours later on, posting "HELP" threads all over xda and haggling with HTC support.
I still stand by this method, and absolutely condemn battery pulling. It is not justified on the DS for whatever reason you may think of! But hey, it's your phone, so do want you want with it. I'm secure in the knowledge that with this technique, mine is 100% safe...

You can also check if you have the vulnerable emmc card, like I have! Then u know to be extra careful.
Search for the thread about it

You mean there is two emmc chips : one which is vulnerable, and one which is not ? how do you know which one you have, and if it is "vulnerable" ?

There is a batch which everyone who has had bricked failures had the same batch of emmc.
There are threads about it you should be able to find... I'm not searching whilst on my phone

Back button leads to mytouch startup screen

I don't know if the phone is supposed to do this or what, but it only does it every once in awhile.
I hit the back button or home button, and it goes to the white mytouch screen, and reloads everything. Its real annoying, and takes 15-20 seconds to start back up. Is this a legit problem? Or is this how it is supposed to be.
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using xda premium

Mine does that too sometime. Only when I just got done using a cpu intensive app though usually.

Are u on virtuous quatro

Not even rooted. All stock. It just did it.. lol. It goes back to the mytouch screen for about five seconds then opens the homepage for about ten seconds and says "loading".

I hear what you are saying with an "cpu intensive" app, but this is a dual core phone!! I had my g2 overclocked to 1.2ghz, and it never did that.. surely there is a problem with this phone.
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using xda premium

The problem is the phone dont have enough RAM to keep home in the memory, being dual core has nothing to do with it, HTC is still setting some memory options too aggresive so home gets killed out for all the other apps to run. All this is things that can be changed with a little scripting and some build.prop edits

That makes a little more sense. I mean, the cpu in these phones should never be overloaded. The first thing I noticed when I got my phone was that, and wondered why it did it. Surely in testing they had to have seen it, then that leads to the question, why release an unfinished product? They spit these phones out like nothing, with what seems little to no testing. Pretty pathetic, for the people who spend hundreds of dollars on these little devices expecting a superior product. Maybe that's why they are handing them out like candy to all of us g2 owners.

I'd say, root the phone and load up the MIUI port on your phone, it's the most stable rom for now, every other rom i tried, I keep getting these reboots and they get annoying. However, i'm still waiting for virtuous team to roll out a steady and stable rom for this phone

then your on the newest radio...from the latest OTA update.....thats not stable with most Roms/kernels flash this radio http://a.22aaf3.com/doubleshot/radio/10.48.9007.00U_10.12.9007.07/PG59IMG.zip

Factory reset....most likely your kernel wasn't installed properly

I don't think a factory reset re-installs the kernel does it?
I thought it just wipes all the data?

Sense getting very slow, restarts itself sometimes

Hi Folks
I have a stock HOX, over the last month or two sense has been getting veeerrrryy sloooow, so slow that when flipping between home screens I actually have to stop and wait as the screens judder across. This usually happens when I start using the phone after not haveing interacted with it for an hour or two or when it has just been turned on if it was off for some reason...
Most of the slowness goes after a couple of minutes, except for on the home button, most of the time I press it and nothing hapens so I press again and again, then all of a sudden all the home presses act at once at the screens start flipping around like crazy!
Also if the phone is on charge and screen is off I usually have to press the power button several times before the screen will trn on again...
Another issue that seems to also be cropping up is, especially while on charge, the phone will jsut turn itself off! Sometimes itwill restart again by itself, sometimes it doesnt!
Anyone have any solution to get my phone back in good health?
Ta

Do you have the cpu speed changed to 192mhz when screens off?

Ummm, I don't know... where can I find that setting? I do usually have power save on if that would enable the cpu speed change...though I also meant to mention that even with this on my battery performance seems to be getting worse and worse

What Rom? Typically its in a performance setting or done using a 3rd party app.

Bah! Egg on my face! Clearly I didn't read attentively enough.
My apologies. Your options are to factory reset or RUU, if neither of those work, It's a hardware issue.

Factory reset. I would also try another launcher to see if it behaves the same. I (still) have problems with sense being choppy but ONLY when I use the Yahoo mail official app, for some reason slows down the system considerably. I stopped using it all together and use the stock sense mail app and everything is going well now. You might have a rogue app, so i would try a reset.
