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
About a week or two ago, my Note 10.1 started telling me pretty frequently that my Gmail app has stopped (pop up where screen goes dark and you can click Ok or Report). Clicking ok exits out and the app functions fine after that but will give the popup again 5-30 min later. It seems totally random but has become frequent enough to be annoying, especially when I am watching videos. I cleared the cache in the app settings but that doesn't seem to have stopped it.
I am avoiding clearing data because I have a lot of subfolders set up with unique notifications and its a pain in the ass to get that all back the way I like it.... but could that be the resolution? Anyone else encountering this issue?

Noticed a little while ago that some emails I was waiting for were sitting in Inbox (the app) all along. I've done some troubleshooting (reboot, clear cache, clear data, bouncing the notification settings in the app, bouncing sync).
In the end I uninstalled inbox and enabled gmail and went through all the above with that but no difference. Test emails, as well as genuine ones are all turning up immediately but I get no notification on the notification bar, led, no sound/vibrate etc.
I've tried in safe mode - same thing. I've turned priority mode on and off too.
Any ideas what I can try next? I did finally get the latest sony update a couple of days ago and I can't be certain this has worked properly since then (Inbox, which I quite like, is set to not notify me for the majority of emails i get.
Update: got home and tried a few other devices which were all fine, so not an account problem. Factory reset fixed it. Sweet.
I have a S6 and have been loving it, but lately (hangs out or other messaging programs are more noticeable) i some times do not get notification or sounds of a notification when my screen if off, some times i don't even get them if the app is running in the back ground but my phone is on.
I have no idea what the issue is and before the question is asked, yes i have wifi/data to remain on when i have my screen off
turning phone off/reset, turning off and on syncing, clearing app data all of these seem to not to help at all
edit more information: only way i have been able to fix it is have trillian and hangout on at the same time ( both google messaging apps) and get someone to send me a message. I will get one of the two notifications. this is a temp fix however it doesn't fix the problem perma.
Anyone else have this issue before. Today I restarted my phone after uninstalling package disabled and phone came back with most of the setting reset. Like all my Google keyboards turned off. My AOD turned on. Etc
I literally had to change almost all setting. It also lost the theme so I had to re-theme it. What's crazy is it even changed my icon layout to a layout that I had a night before.
I can't think of anything that could have made drastic other than the theme. Possible that the theme crashed and it reverted all settings but this is really weird and annoying.
This just happened to me. Now I can't re-active my Samsung Pass. I put my password in and then it fails when I try to register my iris or fingerprint. (Can't recognize fingerprint. Try again later.)
I've tried everything under the sun to fix it except a factory reset.
I just had this happen on my S8. Any developments since you noticed this?
