If you have not noticed the one x is not really multi tasking. My GN does multi tasking different.
When I switch to an app on the GN, it freezes that state of that app and when I switch back to it, it's where I left off.
On the one x, it refreshes the app, not freeze it.
Is this something that can hacked to get it to work like the GN?
^This. O/S is randomly killing apps. I've frozen every possible culprit, switched launchers, etc. Keeps happening. I think it's HTC's battery paranoia and they've done something in the Kernel.

Yea I think a lot of us noticed this.
My biggest issue is the message app. When I go into, all of the messages display the numbers and not the name. It'll take a good 2-3 seconds before it refreshes and replace the numbers with names. This bothers me the most!
I've noticed it as well. It's really frustrating when you're listening to a podcast and Pocket Casts just dies. It's probably something in memory management. There's a tool floating around somewhere that lets you tinker with these values, I'll have to find it.
hmm i was wondering about this too. i thought ics was supposed to have really great multitasking but my ipad does multitasking way better in this case (resuming a game exactly where you were instead of just restarting it like it does now... really it's the same as just going and launching the app again...) come to think about it, its basically the same as the old hold down home and see the recently launched apps in gingerbread. would love to see it really resume apps that were closed...
Could this be why Pandora sometimes plays first second or so and then buffering to new sing? Lol never happened before now

Oh my god I can't stand it is especially on this xda app. I switch back to a post I'm reading and it refreshes me back to the home link, then I gotta go back and find the post again. I really hope we can stop it when root comes out or sooner. Honestly almost makes me miss my gs2

What's even wrong? You're hearing background music from a different app?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
seems to me like the OP is saying that the previous app can be seen through the current app - like the newly opened app is semi-transparent or something...
Anyway, that's how I read it, and that is weird, and no you shouldn't have to use a task killer to fix something like that - that's a proper bug.

I had a weird YouTube bug with my MT4G running CM7 RC2. I paused a video and turned the screen off to go do something for a few minutes, and when I went back to the video, it froze and I had to force-close youtube to get any sort of control.
But the audio from the video was still going! I had to reboot to stop it--even opening another video in youtube just made two audios playing at once LOL.

Woah yeah that's not normal. What if you in to another app after XDA? Does it then show XDA in the backround? You're best off getting a new one off TMo tbh.

This is rom related and has nothing to do with android itself.

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?

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 ..

Has anyone tried playing Words With Friends on their new One S yet? It works, but as the title suggests, it's painfully slow when trying to return to the game from the ads after taking my turn (if there was a paid version I would buy it to avoid this). And it even tries to force close! I'm using the most recent version - 4.83.
Just curious if anyone else is having the same experience?
Thanks y'all.
It's probably an issue with the app on ICS rather than your specific model. I haven't played it yet on my phone but I remember even on my SGS2 it started to get annoyingly laggy!

Thanks unclespoon. I have to admit - I never considered for a moment that it was actually a problem with the One S. That phone RULES. I just wondered if others had a similar experience.
Hopefully it will get optimized for the One S and other ICS devices sometime soon.

It doesn't ever sort of stutter or time out on the way back in from the ads? Do you have the newest version of the app? Maybe I'll uninstall/reinstall?
Anyone else out there?
Try going to app info and clearing data/cache. Never seems to stutter at all for me.

Tried this. It's somewhat better, but not smooth. It was never perfect, but it didn't try to force close either. Got one more force close this AM after clearing the data/cache. Still stumped on this one.
I picked up the One S a few days ago...same issues for me, including the FC when it gets tired of waiting. Definitely not the phone--the phone is sick as hell. It was the one to finally knock my HD2 off its perch, and I haven't looked back yet (though I did keep the old girl as CM9 and ICS are still being developed at a nice clip for that device).

I've tried the mods, but it just still doesn't seem like this phone is multitasking. It seems more time based than it does ram availability.
I don't know... My prior phone was an infuse and it just seems like when I went back to apps they were always where I left them, and if I had stuff typed in... It would still be there.
Anyone agree or disagree and if you do disagree, how do you have your multitasking modded or setup?
Thanks

I too have always had a problem with multitasking. For instance MOG just pauses for no reason if I have more than one app open. Same with another app called doods music player. Browser refreshes if I leave it for more than 10 seconds. I've tried everything, used min free, flashed clean roms multitask fix and it still sucks. I am a huge music buff and without true multi tasking it sucks.

Is it normal for the ATT hox to make a clicking noise when you press capacitive buttons or when typing? Does anyone else notice this? Its like a small clicking noise every 2 or 3 presses. I was just wondering if this was normal because my hox has no other problems. I have exchanged mine 4 times and don't want to do it again.
Normal-ish. Mine does it from time to time, and others' do also. Mostly when speed typing for me. Doesn't bother me. Or my phone, apparently.

I have noticed this every once in a while. It doesn't bother me much but it worried me in the beginning. I really notice it when pressing on the right side of the screen like when I am pressing the letter M. I don't think it is too much to worry about seeing as how many people have noticed it.
What do you guys think it might be caused by?
Maybe it can be fixed by a software update?
It does this to me sometimes. I noticed it before buy haven't noticed a lot lately. You can check if it's the case or screen
