Sense forcing reload?

I have an unrooted HTC Incredible that up until recently was running Go Launcher EX. I uninstalled it because I've been having problems with the recent update and lag that was making my phone unusable. However, since I uninstalled the launcher, every time I leave an application, whether I hit the home button or back out of it, it reloads Sense. Luckily it doesn't take more than 10-15 seconds, probably because I only use 3 screens, but its annoying and makes it hard to use the phone quickly. I'm trying to use the home function as little as possible right now by using the app switcher and notification bar to get around but I'd really like full function of my phone back!
Does anyone know any fixes?

[Q] HTC Sense restarting all the time?

I've got a stock evo shift with the most recent OTA update (Android 2.3.3 Sense 2.1 Software number 2.76.651) and my Sense has been restarting ALL THE TIME. I'll be using an app, hit the home button or the back button to get to my home screen, and it'll show a white screen with the green HTC then show my home screen with a loading message for 5-10 seconds. This only started happening after updating and it's starting to get pretty annoying. Anyone else have this problem/know of a solution for it? I've tried reboots and it usually seems to make it happen less for a little while but it always starts to happen again.

Since you said Stock. Does that mean unrooted? It is a known issue on Stock Gingerbread. The Memory settings are to agressive. You can try AutoKiller Memory Optimizer to change the settings. But it will only help so much.

I had the same problem - got to where almost every time I switched back to the home screen from doing anything, it would have to reload. I tried disabling fast boot and it didn't do anything for me. I did a factory reset, re-downloaded the apps I wanted to keep, and that seemed to fix the problem. Very rarely happens anymore, only seems to occur when I am in the browser for a long time or playing a game for a while. Hope this helps.

I'm rooted, on the stock rom, and sense would re-load. I use Launcher Pro now, and while I still get a few reloads, the launcher refreshes much quicker than sense, and it does have widgets similar to Sense. I had paid for LP Pro last year, with my Evo, so I figure I'd use my paid app.

[Q] HTC Sense keeps shutting down on 2.3.4

I recently upgraded to Android 2.3.4 and have the stock ROM. Now when I'm e.g listening with Spotify and surfing on the web after I press the home button, the HTC splash screen will appear and the home screen starts to load. On 2.3.3 I never had this to happen, but now it seems to occur even on light use. What keeps shutting down Sense?

Happens to me from time to time and im still on 2.3.3. I also want to know what causes these random sense reboot
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA Premium App

happens to me on 2.3.3 only when i exit the browser after heavy browsing...and must add its very irritating.

I had this problem when using Camera. Had to pull-out battery. After few times the problem disappeared. Since using custom ROMs, never had this problem again.

Hello all,
I upgraded my sensation to official 2.3.4 and I'm experiencing the same issue. After going into apps, it could be browser / peep / third apps and even sms app, htc sense keeps rebooting with a disgraced white screen ...
I had also this kind of issue with 2.3.3 but it wasn't so frequently, i really hope HTC will fix that soon cause it's really embarassing.

Hello everyone,
I had this problem very often when I was using stock HTC Sense, but since I started using other ROMs the problem has completely disappeared. I remeber this being very annoying, and sometimes the HTC screen would come up everytime I went back to home! This happened more often when I had the Friend Stream Lockscreen applied.
Now, I'm not entirely sure of what I am saying, but I am just trying to help, if anyone knows better please confirm/correct what I am saying:
This white screen is due to the HTC Sense launcher rebooting. I believe this is because the phone runs out of RAM, and thus shuts down applications.
What I found helpful to kinda fix the problem:
Download the app "Android System Info" from the Play Store. Once downloaded, open it, and go to the "Tasks" tab. Press menu and sort by memory usage. Now you see all your processes (no need for root) sorted by memory usage. You can notice that HTC Sense is often on the top, using up most of the RAM.
Now you problably think: "Why doesn't my phone exclude HTC Sense from the apps it can kill to free memory?". Well I think this happens when another app uses even more RAM than HTC Sense, and the phone then believes the other application is more important, and shuts HTC Sense down, and it then needs to reboot. I noticed that when I had applied the Friend Stream Lockscreen, it was often using about the same amount of RAM as HTC sense, and when it actually used more, and the phone ran out of RAM (for example during heavy browsing), HTC Sense was shut down.
So the way to fix this is to find out which process uses most of the RAM when it shouldn't (not the process "android system" for example), using Android System Info. Either it is, as for my case, one of the cool features of HTC Sense, then you should disable it or it is another application, then you should either uninstall it, which you probably won't because it is an important application, in which case you would have to limit its use.
At least you know what application is causing the problem, but look rather at different times on your phone, to see which process CONSTANTLY uses a lot of RAM. If you are browsing, it is normal that your browser uses up a lot of RAM for example.
This is not a perfect fix, I still experienced Sense reboots after doing that (disabling HTC Friendstream Lockscreen for me), but less often, and this helps without having to root your phone or change ROM.
This is very annoying, and HTC should have fixed this by now, or should had put more RAM in the Sensation to cover that high usage, but I believe they fixed it with Sense 4.0 (going on the new HTC One series), which we won't have for a long time, by making HTC Sense use less RAM.
Please press the "Thank" button if I helped.

Suddenly having extremely weird system issues/resets.

Hello there everyone. I've had my HTC Sensation since September and so far it has been a very enjoyable experience, with only one abnormal reset. However, in the past two days, some weird stuff has happened.
Every once in a while, I see the stock lockscreen flicker over my current screen (Even in an app). It is currently disabled by WidgetLocker as well.
The first day I had installed SweeterHome 2, StatusBar +, and also the application Faster Drawer. The first reset happened as I went to open Faster Drawer (Not for the first time, however). It then rebooted, but things seemed to work fine. Also, the app Profile Scheduler was no longer able to change the screen brightness when I clicked on a profile, just the other settings. I had to go into Android settings to do it manually. (There I found the slider down to 0 as I wanted it, and when I touched it, the screen brightness lowered to where it was supposed to be)
The second reset happened today and was even weirder. I was looking through my Minimal Reader widget when I was interrupted by the white and green HTC boot logo, and the phone took a few minutes to reset. When it came to, all of my widgets were gone, and replaced by "Tap to restore" squares (On both WidgetLocker and SweeterHome 2)
I really have no clue what is going on, though I am very disappointed by the reboots, especially for losing the widgets (Basically my entire homescreen was made of them, it will take a long time to restore). The only thing I messed with was the Accessibility applications; I had to check the one for StatusBar + and I clicked the one for WidgetSoid Notifications, but then disabled it. (Which by the way, the WidgetSoid notification toggles no longer work until I use the system toggle for data, then I can start using them)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am using a stock, unrooted HTC Sensation 4G on T-Mobile, running 2.3.4, and it had that firmware update by T-Mobile a few months ago.

the most ugly thing is i saw it with another sensation user in my famely to before i bought my phone. it got sended away by warrenty got back prob solved but more arised it began also after couple months. mine started doing it i rooted/s-off mine and started testing roms wich one feld like i wanted to use. because of quick changing i cound watch that after an rom from here the prob got solved so here are my suggestions:
1 send it and maybe get a worse phone back(telling from experience)
2 root/s-off test some roms and away goes problem

The issue just became worse. This time, without a reset, my WidgetLocker widgets were lost again, and replaced by the "Tap to restore" dialog. I was playing music at the time with the screen off (no other apps running), and it was not interrupted. When I went to unlock the phone, they were gone.

Any thoughts? This seems like a pretty serious issue to me. I'd like to stay stock since I don't have the money to replace the phone if something were to go wrong.

Try removin the apps and see if that helps,you seem to have alot on there that removes or modifies functionality

[Q] Htc one x problems

So Ive been having issues with my Htc One X and I decided to send it back to Htc (through warranty) to fix the issues... The following are issues I have encountered with the phone on Jb..
Phone randomly reboots after selecting an app
Background Wallpaper would just disappear and turn black
I would select to use an app such as Instagram for example, and it would pop up for a second but then go back to home screen each time
Text messages would come hours late but say received at an earlier time
Keyboard would disappear when texting
Signal would drop to no signal because the phone is "preparing sim" (like when it first comes on) (which is randomly)
Htc Sense would randomly close along with process com.android..etc. (see picture for screenshot, notice task bar has also diapered. )
After the pop up notifications of Htc sense or whatever crashing or stopping I would have to press ok like 50 times to get it to stop popping up..or try to hurry up and restart before it comes back up
Can anyone explain what's going on??????? I have sent my phone to Htc multiple (at least more than 5) times to be fixed and before this time it was a refurbished device because they messed up my usb port on my original phone. I do not run a lot of apps and even with some apps uninstalled it still continues to act like this and I would usually have to restart.. I wish I could unlock boot loader and flash new ROM to fix it.. but they always send it with Jelly Bean installed from stock.

That's quite a collection of issues! Since the phone is bone stock, I'd just try a factory reset, then installing a minimum of apps, and see if the issues still occur. Or run the phone in Safe Mode, and see how it behaves. If its still acting up, send it back again.

Could not honestly tell you, maybe it is some setting you have on the phone. Or may be it is a genuine hardware issue that needs to be repair or replaced. If you sent it 5 times, you should be able to get a brand new phone. I know with AT&T, after the third time, they will replace the phone with a comparable phone
