So since I can remember, whenever I first launch Blinkfeed launcher after a reboot, it shows up very faint. I have to exit and then hit app drawer button again and then its back to normal. Any ideas on how to disable this? It also happens randomly, but I can always make it do it after a reboot.
I had this issue before root and after.

Ok so I couldn't find anyone having the same issue in the Leedroid rom thread, so I figured I would ask here.
Does anyone elses screen freeze on the app drawer or home screens and only unfreezes when you pull the notification bar down?
I have tried turning the screen off and then back on and going into the app drawer changing the home screen (only freezes when I get to that point).
It doesn't happen all the time either. And it has been happening since the phone was stock and even now as it is rooted. I'm trying to say, I will press power button, slide lock ring, enter pattern, screen will show up, try to spin to another home screen but screen will not move, touch buttons work and volume works and power works but screen will not move. Press app drqwer and it opens but will not move either.....drag the notification bar down and everything works again.....
Twice now, out of the clear blue (that I can tell) the ICS Launcher crashed, so my entire desktop disappeared.
I couldn't find a way to restart it, so my only choice was to reboot the tablet, a pain.
Any suggestions...? Or, at least, a way to re-launch the Launcher without rebooting...
Thanks.
Tap the clock in bottom right corner, tap the setting icon, go down to apps, select all, tap on launcher, tap force close, tap the home button a few times.
Desktop should then reload, may need a while as this restarts launcher from scratch including widgets and app drawer.
Happens to me from time to time since ICS update, hopefully a patch will resolve this soon.
Last night, my AT&T HOX discharged completely. I'm thinking it might have reset and went into a constant bootloop, but I'm only guessing. So I plugged up to the charger and let it get charged about 10% before really messing with it. So rebooting the phone led me to a "frozen" screen. At first I thought it was the Picture Password Lockscreen app so I uninstalled it. No change.
I then realized it wasn't a frozen screen (although the slow start up continue after each reboot, but the home key would not function. Menu button will function, so would the back button. Only problem was that despite having the haptic response from the keys, I couldn't get to the home screen. It was just a white screen at and the notification bar at the top. The only way I was able to get a launcher to open was due to the Play Store notification that allowed me to open my ADW launcher from the app list. I installed a home switcher, but still, could not get the home button to work. The hepatic response was back, but it would not yield going directly to ADW as my default launcher, nor select one once I cleared defaults. So I dirty flashed my ROM (Venom XL 3.2.6) and again got the slow start and the inability fort he home key to bring me to the homescreen (or the option to select). I then thought the perhaps it was an issue with the kernel, but still the same thing occurs after flashing the stock kernel. I get the haptic response and the screen does a quick flash. Nothing else.
Has anyone encountered this before or have any idea what controls this function and how to fix it?
From launcher, check your hone button settings, preferences-gesture settings. Check Home key - it should say that it is set to Show home screen. If that doesnt work check to see if in pocket detection is enabled. If it is, try disabling.

Thanks for the tip, but I couldn't get it to work. Had to end up wiping data. Thanks anyway.
Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this. After the latest Sense Home update, my phone has slowed down when returning to the home screen or opening the app drawer. When I unlock my phone, it takes about two seconds before before the launcher or home screen widgets appear. They used to appear instantaneously. Also, when I go to open the app drawer I see the spinning circle for 2 or 3 seconds before app icons appear. Did this happen to anyone else?
Hello,
After a few days of using the phone, I installed Lightning Launcher and set it as default. I got some bugs with the lockscreen (i'll explain later) so I reverted back to the Xperia original launcher.
Now, after not using LL, I still have that same issue. I'm pretty sure it hasn't anything to do with LL or anything, but I prefer mentionning it just in case.
(tl;dr)
Whenever I press power button, it is supposed to immediately scan the fingerprint. It doesn't anymore and instead of the normal lockscreen I have a completely blank screen, only with Back and Home button.
Finger is not scanned, I can't swipe in any direction BUT, if I press the Home button, lockscreen shows up (it slides from the left side), as if I already swiped to the right.
That's pretty annoying when the purpose of fingerprint scan is to immediately unlock
Got any idea ? Somebody has the same problem maybe ?
EDIT:
Okay my bad. I uninstalled LL completely and the problem didn't show up anymore. I reinstalled because I remembered it can also be used as a lockscreen, and i disabled that in its settings. I'll check if problem continues but if not, I'll come back to inform about it.
