I've got a question where i can't find the answer to when i use the search-option on this site.
I have a HTC Sensation XE, all recent updates done.
When i'm browsing the web and i push the home button i allways get "loading" on my screen. (For about 10seconds). How come the phone seems to be slow when i do that? Is it a problem with HTC Sense? Will it run faster on Go Launcher or is there an other solution for my problem? I like the apperiance of HTC Sense so would prefer to keep using it . If anyone has a solution i'll be happy to read it.
Thanks in advance
Best solution would be to flash a custom ROM or root it at least and change a line in your build prop to prevent from doing what you describe.

I think that happens when Android automatically kills HTC Sense as it needs more memory.
Using Golauncher might solve it. Or you could set the built in task killer to be more aggressive.

Depends what ROM you are using, I think on Gingerbread you could use the Spare Parts app but not sure.

To do so i must "root" the phone right ? Thanks for your reply.
No, you don't need root for the spare parts app. There should be other apps on the Market that do similar things too if Spare Parts doesn't work.

Most of the time my phone is very fast indeed
It's just when something is loading in the browser or when you're playing a game (Angry birds in this case) and i push the "home" button, than i have to wait a few seconds until the home-screen is loaded. You can also see that the clock settings (24hrs) reload at that time. (clock is displayed first in AM-PM-mode)
Greetz and thanks

Spare Parts didn't solve my problem. The white screen with HTC logo appears sometimes followed bij "loading" on the home screen.... Of anyone had an idea to solve this.... I'll be welcome to hear...
I removed antivirus app and now its seems solved

There is actually a thread on this because I was able to explain to the person why your phone in fact does this..
A lot of the time you will unwittingly have a few browser windows open, each page you have open roughly uses about 10-40MB of RAM depending on the rendering, flash etc.
When you hit the 'Home' button, your phone doesn't actually close the web browser. It just puts it as a background application. The chances are that your phone doesn't actually have enough RAM to switch from the Browser to Sense and so it kills sense and reloads it.
Custom ROM's do not have this problem as they have RAM optimizations, however I'm sure if I opened 5 windows and opened YouTube in every window then hit the home button, that I'd have the same problem.

For now it seems fine. Removing lookout anti-virus made everything faster I tried to make it happen again but phone stayed smooth and fast. I hope it stays this way now.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium
It just happend again. To much apps open and it happens. I will try moving apps to internal memory as it would help Android closing them to free RAM....
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium
With too many apps open it happens again. Must be a memory and closing sense-problem. Is there no possibility to select programs like Sense and 3g-watchdog to remain allways open? Movings apps back to internal memory seems not possible with the software I've got....
It doesn't matter where the apps are, it's just the stupid RAM.

I'm afraid do.... Would replacing Sense with another app solve this problem ?

I was wondering what kind of tricks and tips you could tell to keep the sensation as fast as it was before installing any apps ?
i know its not possible unless i wipe it off but i'm a heavy user and want to know what kind of tricks out there to make it as fast as possible.
i'm sick of HTC green logo white screen "Loading..." everytime i hit Home button or return to any of the homescreens from any app which takes 5-10 seconds to finish
in the same time i dont think it worth going to sensation XE to benefit from the 0.3Ghz CPU power
u could try launcherpro and keep homescreen in memory. This should help make ur homescreen snappier.
There is a fix for that add this line to the bottom if build prop
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1
Had same issue this sorts the issue

I can root and do all fancy stuff if that speed things up, been playing with my HTC hero in the past and loaded all kind of stuff with it.
after rooting which ROM do you recommend? read another thread talking about sense 3.5 would it be better? I'm a huge SenseUI fan, actually can't live with it
Sense 3.5 has its perks one thing let's it down is the video sound its horrible
Sense 3.0 is old but its solid n video sound is great if u turn stero sound off
But its all down to personal preferences

Hello,
I have mine and my wives sensations s-off and rooted and both running the latest Android Revoluttion 3.5 Roms with beats. My phone is fast and everything works great, apart from very occasional black screen freeze and lock up. Quick battery removal/restart fixes it. But the wives phone lags, freezez, loses WiFi. What should I do to fix it? Tried reflashing the Rom, but to no avail. She wants me to make it s on and remove root. Any suggestions before I do?
Thanks

Just redo your wife phone ,use superwipe from mike thread .
Ps, this should be in Q&A

What radio are you using? Is the the new ICS leaks you are using?
You might want to ask stuff like this in sensation Q&A dude. Many people including devs might not appreciate this post in the dev section.

P.s don't remove root. Its like going back to stone age
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using xda premium
reflash with the full super wipes and if it is the ics rom, its only test version so don't expect it to be perfect. if all else fails, swap sensations to satisfy her
un-root it. your wife sounds like mine. they don't care and they don't want you messing with their phone.
Thanks for all the replies. I super wiped, redownloaded and replaced 3.6.11 AR ROM, and reflashed. So far so good. If it starts acting up, ill just remove the root. I dont need the extra nagging!

hi...........
i used many ICS sense 3.6 roms and in all rom i have noticed a lag while playing a 720p video..........and games also have video lag...........
how to solve it ????????
please help
I haven't seen this bug, however I would guess that with the system still being Beta, this has something to do with it.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using XDA App
Yeah it's probably due to the 'beta status' of the ROM's.
You might just have to wait for the final release for it to be fixed.
but even 2 mb games gets stuck on this versions
It could also be to do with the qHd of the screen. I know this sounds rather strange, but if you try using a game such as NinJump, you'll find that the application completely locks up. This is due to some applications not supporting the display and I would certainly double check that this isn't the issue you are experiencing.

For video games, disbale force gpu option in development setting.
It depends what you want, but custom roms tend to be better. You have almost unlimited support and the freedom of being able to switch to and from New features.

I'm also on ordroid, but, when I take a photo on instagram, all freezes and stops responding (non of buttons working on instagram or other buttons), when screen lights out and press turn on button (hope to go to lock screen) it boots on as switched on. Reinstall does all the same
Works fine on VI 4.0.1. Although personally I don't see what is all the hype about.

What's the benefit of using Instagram?
It's another 'cool' app to have for photo blogging - effects are quite nice
Just installed instagram.. currently using sense 4.0 insert coin rc1.. took some photos and upload it to fb.. one FC occurred when to choose profile pic.. the rest seems to be ok...

I cant really see an actual benefit of using it. It seems this app is aimed towards hipsters and females
I always try to take the best picture with realistic colours , why would I ruin it with lame filters that mimic old camera ?

After installing a sense 4 port I noticed that the messages in the stock app were very large and there wasn't anything in message settings to change it.
However, I found out by accident that you can pinch and zoom to resize. This also works in 3.6 Roms.
Hope others find this useful.
