Glitch in Apex Launcher - General Questions and Answers

Hi there.
Ive got a question regarding apex Launcher.
Everytime i browse through my homescreens, a glitch (dark square) in the top left corner of the screen appears and keeps flashing(while swiping my finger on the screen) . sometimes after exitting an app it stays on the screen and i have to tap something to get rid of it. Has anyone of you guys experienced that kind of glitch on your devices?
I have a rooted htc one s with a Trickdroid 7.1 rom. sorry for my bad English,havent been using it for a while. anyway, i attached a photo, so if anyone got that kind of bug, write here:good:

Hey,
same here on my one s, but only when i tab/swipe my finger on the screen.
i suspect that it is since the update to 4.04....
i have a unrooted device.

Same on my unrooted One S using Apex.

[Q] Launcher carousel lag

Is it just me or is really hard getting the carousel to work. Everytime I try messing around my phone to get the carousel effect I end up selecting something. For the life of me I just cant get the dam carousel effect. Anyone else having this issue?
I don't own it yet, but on all 4 of the sensation's i've had my hands on i thought it was pretty simple. In only two swipes you should be able to get that thing spinning. Oddly enough, I don't really know it adds any real functionality but it does look cool. Are you experiencing any other oddities with your touchscreen or is that it? Just to make sure that it works try swiping across two blank screens and see if you can do it. Two quick little swipes is all it takes.

Having a 2 blank screens may help as I have widgets on all my screens although I shouldnt have any issues to begin with. I have notice in a few evo 3d reviews on youtube that its a lot more fluent and talking about touch response ive notice that sometimes I have to press the power button to be able to select some widgets or icon shortcuts I have on my home screens. Im not liking this at all.

I saw those EVO 3D comparison videos too and was a little shocked. The reason I was shocked is because the sensations that I tried out didn't have any of that lag in the videos. I've also read about some people here saying they have homescreen lag, and others that don't. Have you tried a factory reset? I should have mentioned the devices I tried had all 7 screen loaded with junk, and I was still able to spin the carousel with two swipes.

video online.

Lol, yeah I think the one in that video looks pretty nasty. Not a fair comparison at all if you ask me. Maybe it needed to be restarted or something.
works like a charm on my sensation! just one gentle swipe and there it goes...
Mines lag or very hard to make it spin... Hmmm

Just started using mine today and I'm having the same issue...must be a trick to this Sence
Mine is really smooth. It stutters once in awhile, but it's no big deal.
Just exchanged mine at Walmart for the same reason... It didn't recognize fast swipes... Try pulling the notification bar up and down real fast and see if it lets it go.... The new phone I got works fine for now.

anyone notice that having a screen protector makes the carousel much harder to spin?

iv been reading that thread for awhile and have posted in it... just curious about the screen protector aspect
Some reported it affected problem, some said it didn't. Pull it off and see for yourself I guess.

HELP--HTC sense has stopped unexpectedly- wtf

for like the past week my sensation has been telling me that "htc sense has stopped unexpectedly" it does it in random places, nothing i have been able to track. then whenever im done doing whatever im doing and push the home button the white HTC splash screen pops up with the green writing and then starts loading as if i had just restarted the phone.
any idea????
Had similar issues before rooting/CM7A... got that white HTC screen almost every time I went back to home screen. Was thinking maybe a resource issue?
any idea how to fix it, its annoying as hellllllzz
I fixed it by rooting and installing CM7 Alpha.
my phone is rooted too but im still having the problem, are you still using the sense launcher? i kept the stock rom and everything, just rooted to freeze the bloatware
have you tried to clear data in htc sense?
i'm having this problem after install kernel looks like no solution for me if wanna use custom kernel
CoreDroid fixed the issue. Try it. Plus it's themed and let's you turn on and off tge Spinning SENSE animation and colors of the clock, etc.

Ive tried all the fixes,clear data.
Best one so far is to remove the new funky android Market app and go back to the old style one. Sense is only rebooting a few times a day now, not all the time.
Im on Stock Vodafone ROm, 2.3.4 No Root etc...
Bloke
Just back everything up (not system files) and factory reset and reflash. Its from a Dodgey install

I actually have this problem and am using CoreDroid.
I think I read it may be the new market that's messing with some things.
What widgets are you running?

Only One Thing I Don't Like

Only one thing so far I don't like about HOX. Bone stock, non-root.
Sense 4 stutters in the app tray when swiping between app screens. I think my gnex with official 4.04 is smoother. With more powerful hardware on the HOX, you wouldn't think even Sense 4 could slow it down. But it is consistently laggy or stutters when swiping between app tray screens. Not bad mind you, just a little stutter step during the first 1/3 of the transition as you swipe side to side.
I actually find Sense 4 to be quite usable so have no complaints with it. Just wish it were smoother. Maybe one day I will use a de-sensed rom but that will have to wait until I've owned it a month. We'll see.
Just use another launcher like Apex and Nova and you should be fine.
Sometimes it takes a second for my app drawer to pop up if I haven't opened it for a while, but not once has it stuttered swiping between screens. You really should root, that's what xda is for ya know...
Thanks, I tried Nova and liked it. Smooth.
Sense is so pervasive throughout though I couldn't get over the idea that I was running one launcher on top of another so decided that the Sense 4 stuttering app tray bothered me less than using two launchers and the resources that might suck up. It's not that bad, just mind boggling that HTC can't get this one part right.

[Q] Changing wallpaper, and amount of screens

First time using sense fyi.
Everytime I try to change wallpaper it says it was changed, but its still the stock sense theme wallpaper. I can change themes no issue, but doesn't change to one I want. What's the deal?
Next, stock it came with like 7 screens. I only use 3, maybe 4. For the life of me I can't find a way to reduce the amount. Help me out here?
Thank you sorry just got the one s last night. Came from nexus one. Haven't tried rooting this or anything yet. Just getting used to the phone itself first.

[Q] Screen redraws

What's up all. Was wondering if anyone is seeing slight screen redraws when pressing the home button. Typically I see it with the moto circle widget where it flashes on the screen and redraws itself to the screen. I know back I the day HTC phones had it and doing a build. Prop edit fixed it or something. Was wondering if anyone else noticed it.
I am rooted and have some X posed stuff working but I saw it before I rooted as well. Just curious

Would like to know this as well. My Maxx runs super smooth, only not smooth thing I have noticed is when I press home the Moto Droid circle widget redraws sometimes. A fix would be appreciated!

I'm pretty sure a fix is going to have to come from Moto itself. I was wondering if anyone could find a work around in the meantime.
I see the Droid circle widget redraw every once in a while. It's so fast that it doesn't bother me at all.
