[Q] Multiple launchers give same issues on BM MIUI ROM - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm running the latest version of BM's MIUI ROM but every launcher I've tried ends up running really sluggishly and/or restarts itself, especially when closing the app draw. Rebooting the phone doesn't seem to cure the problem and I have now tried the Go Launcher and the premium ADW launcher. The standard MIUI launcher also seems sluggish when scrolling through the home screen pages although not to the same extent. Anyone else had this issue? Any suggestions that I could try?
Pressing the home button deposits me on the blank home screen as the icons slowly reappear.

Do a full wipe and try. A full wipe should fix it.
Or... You can use my MIUI SwAT rom!

Ok, will try and full wipe. If that doesn't work I'll give your ROM a whirl

[question] Does anyone else notice ADW getting slower throughout the day?

I've been using ADW both on the stock 1.47 ROM and now on CM6 (both nightlies and now RC1) and have found that as the day goes on the performance of ADW seems to suffer. This is particularly noticeable in the "return to home" performance (i.e. the time it takes for the phone to return to the main home screen after pressing the home button). Performance is restored with a reboot.
As I stated, I've noticed this on multiple configurations (and I always do a full wipe between installing new ROMs).
Does anyone else notice this? I did a quick search and didn't see anything.
I am having the same issues. It seems like touch lag switching between home screens.

Yup, after my phone has been on for a while, it takes forever for the home button to return me to the home screen. Running CM6-RC1.
I seem top be having the same issue. Nightly 28#1

Widget Issues

I am and have been running Vegan 5.1.1 since day one with no issues other than the little quirks that have been discussed here. Anyway, lately when I load widgets all seems fine until I power down and then back up. The widget is just black and says "problem loading widget". I remove them and add again and all is well until I power down and back up again. Any insight or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Funny thing: a couple of days ago I started having the same problem, running TnT-lite 4.2.5.
Been busy over the weekend and didn't pick up my tab again until this evening, turned it on and experiencing it again; searching around in the forums for a fix.
Interesting. Most of other Android users get this after they move or install certain apps to SD, but on our tablet that option is non issue.
Will try clearing Dalvik-cache in CWM .8 and wipe cache see if that helps.

Just rebooted 3 times, without clearing anything and Widgets load fine. Hmmm.
What launcher?
Happens to me one in about every 30 starts. Gotten used to it so I just delete and reload widgets. Takes 30 secs. Think it might have something to do with when launcher starts in load sequence.
I've rarely seen this on ADW (both my DX and Tab). I just go into ADW settings and restart ADW.
I use Zeam as default, have LauncherPro and ADW installed.

Blank home screen

I'm using apex Launcher (non rooted)
So this started happening to me on a daily basis : I go into any particular app or perform a task and when I return to what it supposed to be the home screen I instead see just the wallpaper. The wallpaper still scrolls and if I tap in the areas I know the icons are supposed to be I can still access them. Please help, I don't know what is causing this and lately I'm having to reboot the system or force stop the launcher to get it back to normal. Anyone else experience this issue?
Nothing....
factory reset
Try to uninstall the launcher and reboot.
If you keep having these problems do a factory reset and you will loose less time than trying to find why these troubles happen.

[Q] Why is my UI vanishing?

So, I've been having issues with my TF101 for a while now. At first I thought it was ROM related, but I've seen this issue across a couple different ROMs, including the stock ICS update. The issue is that frequently, the launcher will crash and restart when swiping off the main homescreen. Other times, the UI overlay will crash. That is to say, the icons and everything will vanish, but the background will still be there. Sometimes a widget might be frozen on the screen (it's visible regardless of swiping, and you can't interact with it). I can still swipe, the background is still visible scrolling, and if you know where something should be, you can even tap it and it will open. Has anyone else experienced this? I've noticed the issue in the stock ICS launcher, Apex, or Trebuchet. When it happens, I either have to restart or at least re-apply the system them. Even the lock screen UI vanishes.
FWIW, my TF101 is a B60 unit, rooted, running RaymanFX's CM10 (4.1.2) ROM, and TWRP.
So no one's seen this kind of issue before?
I have a similar problem. Hitting the "home" button (it never disappears) solves the problem, no need for other apps or reboot or anything. I just plain hit the home button and everything reappears.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sometimes, my UI vanishes, but if I wait about 10 seconds or so, it comes back. I guess the launcher crashes, but is automatically restarted by the kernel. I use the K.A.T kernel, maybe that is better with the re-launch when it crashes?

[Q] Black Screen on Home button - Alliance Rom

Hi guys. Apologies if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find anything that was exactly this issue.
Galaxy S3 running Alliance rom v22 with (though I had the same issue with v21).
Using Nova Launcher 2.3 or TW Launcher (haven't tried any other launchers)
When closing an app or the app drawer using the home button, many times the screen just goes black. I have to hit the power button to turn the display off, then again to turn it on to get anything to show on the display. I thought it may have been something with the Nova Launcher, so I tried TW, and had the same issue. I have done multiple clean wipes and installs with this and the v21 Alliance rom. Not sure it matters, but I am currently using the Beans Stock kernel, but saw the same issues with the Lean kernel.
This happens at least 10 times a day and is getting very aggravating, to the point where I went back to the 4.1.3 Jelly Beans rom after trying v21. I came back when v22 was released hoping something may have changed. Does anyone have any ideas of settings I might change or something like that that could fix this? Thanks!
