HTC Home 2.0.1025.721 (New version) - Is it working for you?

I've tried this new version found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1769023) hoping that it would solve the freezing-on-incoming-call problem that I experience intermittently.
I've unionstalled the old version, rebooted, installed the new, rebooted again for the sake of safety, but it doesn't show up in the screen, even if I've enalbed it in Today settings.
Are you experiencing this problem too?
@mamaich, and the others: how can we solve?

Hi Bro,
I've totally given up with any version of HTC Home Today no matter how cool it is as it locks up the phone when receiving calls.
The only solution to avoid crash is to run in portrait mode which unfortunately doesn't suit me. Instead, I'll wait for HTC Shift's SnapVue to run in Uni, why not? It runs on HTC Athena!?
Cheers!

yeah, even the HTC Home runs in the athena... it runs in the kaiser...and in the touch, too... so why shouldn't it run on the Universal...
argh... i hate the universal!!!

I think only a few of us are having the freeze/crash problem. Most Uni users don't seem to have any problems at all.

I don't think so. Most uni users switch ROM every 2 days and they don't use the PDA for anything serious at all.
If something suddendly stops working (as it is frequently the case) they just hard reset the device.
I want to use my universal and upgrade the ROM only when needed, when something really new comes out.

Hi guys,
I too get this same problem, and it is very annoying, and yes I do use my Uni for more than just a toy.
Hope we get a working solution soon
ciao

confirmed... hangs upon incoming call.... the phone would keep vibrating while all keys/buttons/screen area are locked, no way to answer it....does not stop so had to reset.

you mean this new version? or the old version?

Nice to see "some" of you with the "crash on receiving calls in laptop mode" problem post here!
I use my Uni too as a PDA & a business tool & that made me to conclude that plugin is not for me. The plugin is a beauty but functionality comes first to me. Unless a solution can be found I've learned to live without it!
Going back on topic, haven't tried this version yet but the previous 2.xxxx versions installs well but causes the horrible crash.

I think the version i've found is newer... the version number is higher, and the file was posted just yesterday (29th december) ... in contrast, the version found at your link was posted on november... (but we may well give it a try!)
thanks tho...

HTC Home v.2.1.1005.722 is more then HTC Home v.2.0.1025.721

you are right
but i don't think that version has the VGA fix applied...

Anyway even the link pointed to by wuwuwu doesn't work. Same thing. HTC HOme selected in the setting but it doesn't appear.

me too have the same issue. I have switched to JW 1533 which i feel is the most stable ROM

Battery Drain

How can you say that? When the device is in standby, no other program is running. When the device is on, HTC Home causes no major cpu usage (except maybe once a minute, when btw every plugin has a greater chance to use the CPU to redraw itself)

V10K OTA UK Update available NOW!!!

Ok, apologies if this is old news, but didn't see. But I've just updated my O3D OTA in South London, UK. Not that it would make a difference but I'm T-Mobile in case anyone intereted.

Im having random restarts since update. Anyone else having this problem?
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA App

Yes some people complain about restarts like I. I install bootlog uptime and i discover that phone restart every few days, mostly when i'm not watching

I had that problem in the beginning but after a factory reset it stopped doing that.

Mobile Phone Support: We are expecting the Gingerbread version of Android to be available no later than November. The faults that you have experienced isn't a known issue unfortunately, I can only suggest that you continue to check the support tool for upcoming updates.
from lg phone support

I've not noticed any restarts as yet, though only been few hours. Not sure if it makes any difference but the only people I've seen reporting this prob are those who updated manually.
Would be nice if LG listed a change log, obviously there is the 3D converter, which is cool but I'm not sure it's as good as the native stuff as people suggest, though need to play with more. I was actually getting happy with my battery on V10D, so will see how this compares over a few days,. Other than Flash Player settings not sure if anything else has been added/changed....?

Yes i am having the same problem,i have reinstalled sw twice and its still doing it.
Sent a message to LG about it and they dont want to know about it and blame the problem on the carriers..

I have to say my initial impression of the battery life is negative.
I went to bed with the phone almost fully charged, and as I do every night I disabled internet, wifi, GPS and refreshing and and waking up this morning my battery is 67%, that's really poor considering I was getting about %5 drop before.
Guess I will see what it does during the day, though I'm now worrying it won't last till the work day!

This firmware has problems with Wifi. On an 'n' network, the phone keeps rebooting. On a 'g' network I get some reboots. Turning Wifi off solves the problem, but sometimes it's impossible to turn it back on unless you reboot...
It's a shame because the battery life with this firmware is finally 'normal' for a smartphone: 24 hours vs 7 hours before that.

My wifi is on all the time but is set to switch off when the screen is locked.
I'm not having problem at all with the phone and to be honest it's much better than before.
It seems to be running more smoothly and I can see that the battery management has improved a lot!
I'd say that I'm having the same number of hours that I had with my iPhone 4 doing the same stuff that I usually do before a recharge. So, at least for me the update has been a good thing.
Hopefully will get GB sooner than later.

I also must add that right after flashing 10k the battery was pretty bad and with the rebot problem.
After a factory reset the reboot problem was solved and the battery became super.

cheers for the tip.
What sort of data gets lost/reset on a factory default?

I presume everything gets wiped with a factory reset. So my question is if its possible to backup application settings WITHOUT rooting my phone?
Everyone seems to recommend Titanium to backup settings but I do not want to run the risk of problems with the Gingerbread update by rooting my phone, but I also do not want to lose my game progress either.
Its a shame there is no option to sync all application settings to Google servers, considering one of the huge advantages to me is that the contacts and calendar do exactly that.

I've downloaded 4 times now over wifi and every time I get an invalid software package notification and it will not proceed.
I'm on stock rom (rooted) with no Rom manager gubbins.
Strange, anyone else have this please?

I'm looking but my phone says i'm upto date on V10D??
My phones on Orange if that makes a difference?
Thanks in advance

Open LG's Mobile Support and go to "Customer support > Support Model" check for Orange and you will see the version that i available for you.
The last time I saw, Orange was stuck with v10D and T-Mobile with F.
UK and Carphone are on K version.

Yeah you can do it using the KDZ file or rooting and flashing with clockwork recovery.

Sorry for being a Noob I've looked but can't find a guide thats for a real noob. Only been running Android for 6 days? but the 3D convert was the main selling point so if someone could help or link I would say a big thanks.

[Q] New Google Maps flickers on CM10.1

Some of you may have noticed that the new maps app flickers on MT4GS running CM10.1. I reflashed gapps with the old maps, turned off auto-updates and it still updated itself. It is just useless.
Does anyone have a solution? I doubt google cares.

Saw you mention this in one of the dev threads as well. I'm running SilverL's Unofficial CM 10.1 and haven't personally noticed this issue, while I saw someone else back you up with similar problems.
Maybe you pulled a map update I haven't seen yet? I'm showing version 6.14.4(#6140400) Web
Are you higher? Do you have a lot of layers on maybe?

Yes, version 7 is out. auto-updated earlier week on my phone. dev threads? i don't recall, posting anything, I don't think I have permission to post there.
Anyway, I figured it out. I reflashed gapps, but it doesn't contain the maps app, and that's why it was ineffective. I uninstalled version 7, and pulled the version 6 apk from a friend's phone and installed it.
I also turned off auto-update in play.

Sorry, saw someone mention it, thought it was you! Glad to hear it was sorted, I'll be sure to avoid a map update if I see one pop, but I haven't yet. Maybe it was causing issues outside of custom roms and google stopped pushing it until they got it sorted.

interesting, i was also having this issue.i was on the jellykang rom 1.8 and changed to silverL's 10.1 unofficial cm and im seeing a version 7.0.1 and it look like its working fine. ill report back if i see anything messing up again. but looking at android polices coverage of this update release reported that there were several versions getting pushed all over the place so maybe some work better than others..

Interesting. I finally popped for the map update yesterday, and after reading this I figured I'll give it a shot. I like everyone else definitely had issues with the map, the jitteryness, the menu icon on bottom left slightly off screen. I uninstalled and reverted to 6.14.4 from my backup and it's just fine again. Hope this does get fixed, the new map looks nice if it was working. Wondering if you really are issue free or just didn't notice anything real quick.
It did seem like as I was playing with location options (use network for location, gps radio on or off, let google always allow access, having a gps lock or not) sometimes it seemed like it would smooth out for a second or two, then get all glitchy again. Wonder if any official JB handsets are getting the issue, I think I know what I'll google next.

yea you were right, i just did a glance look at it and didint really dive into it that far. i checked it out again and it is still all messed up so nevermind ..
are there any custom roms that dont have the issue i wonder. maybe this can help narrow down the root cause. unless its just an inherent problem with the app as it stands today. it almost reminds me of this issues i was having with ingress when i was on stock.

Unfortunately it seems to me to be an issue with all of the 10.1's at least, and from my googling before, it seems likely specific to our device, just not sure why
Anywho, I'm pretty OK with maps 6, it works, and still has separate navi app, and is what anyone with earlier than android 4.0 is stuck with anyway.
UPDATE: So I tried the 7/22 update that I got hit with, and it's weird. Initially it seemed OK, aside from the menu button still being half off screen. After fooling around for a bit with menus and settings, it got all flickery again. It seems like it heavily had to do with overlays/prompt dialogues showing up. The box would kind of disappear aside from the outline, but still respond. After fooling around quite a bit and disabling boxes from asking again, eventually everything seems to have evened out. Now I haven't actually done any kind of navigation or heavy use, but I've been using v 7.0.2 now on and off for a few days, and the stutter hasn't come back. Wish I had a more definitive way of what I did to get rid of it, or if it eventually just smoothes out on it's own, but for now it seems like I'm good with the new maps on a CM10.1 rom.

Bump for update, anyone else experiences with new maps?

Yes, I'm having the exact same issues as you. Screen flickers and overlay menus keep blanking out so you can't read them. I have an HTC Inspire 4G running CM 10.1. Came across this thread searching for "Maps 7 screen flicker". I had to revert back to Maps 6 as 7 was unusable!

Im running PACman ROM v22.4.0, same issue as you guys with the new maps, and navigation is a stutterfest.

I'm on jellykang 1.8 and that's definitely happening to me. especially in the navigation app

Since others are now finding this thread outside of just us DS users, I figure I'll share this idea from a dev thread:

I hadn't, but that's a wonderful suggestion, wonder if anyone else has?
Edit: So after learning how to re-enable dev options, I just tried this, and it definitely seems to WAY help. Is there any downside to leaving this checked all the time?
So something for others to try/chime in on?

Guys, can you try disabling android debugging AND USB debugging in developer options?
I saw it on a sensation ROM forum and it seems to be working for me.

Hrm, I'll try it. Just loaded maps now, it was sketchy, disabled and seemed fine. Turned back on, and it was still fine, this one seems to be crazy inconsistent.

It wotk fine on my device
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9505 mit Tapatalk 2

possible workaround?
I found another workaround that seems to work for me:
Turn on the "Extended Desktop" (or "Expanded"? I'm on German here). And it's gone. Strangely the flickers don't return when I turn it off again.
Extended Desktop Option has to be activated in the settings, if it's not available in the power switch menu.

Counter perspective
I've just been working with the newest CM builds for the MT4GS, and I don't encounter any flickering. This is with a complete wipe prior to installing however.

same issue with HTC G2 on CM10.1
Hello,
I experienced the same issue on my HTC G2 with CM10.1. I had to revert to Maps v6...the v7 would sometime work fine, but most of the time I had some part of the screen flickering and the navigation feature was not usable at all (the animation would not work). I first thought it might be because of the overclocking. but I tried with stock frequency and the issue persisted.
My wife's Sony Ericsson Mk16a also has the same issue but on a custom stock rom..

[Q] mm qcamera issue

Good morning all,
I'm sure most of you are familiar with the "mm qcamera" bug. In a nutshell it is a service used by the camera that *sometimes* stays open on some nexus devices (and possibly any Android device) consuming large amounts of battery in the background. By large I mean 20% an hour sometimes more!
The bug was supposedly reported in android 4.4.2 and fixed in a later version of Android. (4.4.4? I'm not sure). I can confirm this still happens to my nexus 5 once in awhile.
Upon researching, it seems most threads are about the 4.4.2 software, however my Nexus is running 4.4.4 and is still experiencing the bug. It is hard to find anything to read on 4.4.4, most search results talk about older software.
My question is this: Is anyone experiencing this bug on their nexus 5 (or really any android device) running 4.4.4? Has anyone found a solution other than rebooting the device?
Here is some more information on the topic

It only happens for some people and the reason behind it is unknown. For some it is a major issue, and for others it's never existed. Only way to get it to (maybe only temporarily) go away is to reboot. Not much you can do about it, but some have said it's better if camera apps are changed to user apps rather than leaving them as system apps.

I doubt it, it might be a hardware driver issue, nobody knows what the real cause is. Personally I don't have this issue, I don't think another ROM or kernel will change anything much, although it's worth a shot if the drain applies to you.

It gives me a good reason to change ROMs.. haha. Ill give it some time and see what happens thanks for the quick reply so early in the morning!

Depends where you are in the world.. 10:46pm here in Australia. :angel:
But yeah, I have no idea if another ROM would fix the issue in any way. If it helps a little it's more likely because it's a clean flash, not because of the ROM itself, but who knows. Kernel won't affect this at all.

well, the camera daemon is normal to show up, especially when you use the camera or apps that use the camera. and its normal for it to take a larger % of battery than the camera app itself. what you havent really done is actually describe your problem. as far as i know, you dont have an issue, at least until you describe it. again, its normal for the camera daemon to appeae. now please, describe your actual problem. screenies?
---------- Post added at 11:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:10 AM ----------
what's not normal is if it continues to drain battery, which i havent seen personally in a while, nor read any real complaints on it in a long time.

I've heard it only happens now when you leave the offending app that uses the camera (snapchat, skype, etc) running in the background. I can't confirm though as I've never had the issue even before the update.

I can confirm I have the continual drain, unfortunately this was the other day and since then I have rebooted and charged my phone. I'm glad its only once in a while but from what I researched it should have been fixed in 4.4.4.
More info is available in the link I posted in the 1st post including screenshots and even links to XDA. The problem I have experienced a few times so far on 4.4.4 is identical to the link in OP.

I can confirm I have the continual drain, unfortunately this was the other day and since then I have rebooted and charged my phone. I'm glad its only once in a while but from what I researched it should have been fixed in 4.4.4.
More info is available in the link I posted in the 1st post including screenshots and even links to XDA. The problem I have experienced a few times so far on 4.4.4 is identical to the link in OP.

do you have any apps that use the camera? and i mean any, there are many. if you used that app, and iy continued running in the background, the the camera daemon would also run in tbe background. if it is the old camera daemon issue that youre experiencing, then it would happen every time the camera is used, not occasionally. if its only once in a while, something else is causing your issue. i had the issue before, every single time i used the camera, not occasionally.

MMS Not receiving unless using HTC message app

So for the past week I have been using gboard and android messages to be able to send gifs, bitmoji, etc. All of a sudden for no reason I can't receive any MMS at all using any other message app than HTC messages. Has anyone else seen this? I have tried textra, verizon message+, etc. Once I uninstall the other apps i can get the messages again, but only with the HTC app.

Known problem with android.
https://textra.uservoice.com/knowle...-mms-timeouts-no-mobile-data-mms-send-failing

Again..
So the link above is for android 7.0... I have fixed the 7.0 problem in the past and did the whole new Sim activated on a newer vzw phone and had HD voice ect added and restarted my u11 with factor my reset. Fixed my mms issue for 6months until recently. Textra and any other app that isn't htc, fails to recieve mms. I have another u11 on 7.0 and it's not being used (long story) and put my sim in it and tested. Still no mms.
I did change my plan around the time the problem has started to occur again. Today I'm takin both u11s in and seeing if I can get mms to work by activating a new Sim. I'm frustrated cause I dont like htc sms app.
Anyone else having problems? Maybe the Sim card is just a bandaid?

Do you have a stock rom back up ? If so back up your current rom and data then restore the stock rom back up then boot it and let it update apps then reboot to recovery and save your updated stock rom to a new back up then restore your back up that you were originally using and it should text fine. I said to update apps and do another stock back up so you have a new updated back up for future fixes. I have had to do this a couple times but its usually after flashing things like I did through magisk I did the viper4android and it broke texting and data but doing this always seems to be a fix for me and others. Its not permanent fix but it will get your texts and data working again until you flash something again.

That is kind of odd as usually people on stock rom do not have these problems its usually just the people unlocked and on custom roms and flash any mod and the problem rears its ugly head but doing the fix I listed is usually a fix or RUU worse case and your fixed.

Ya, it happened randomly. I haven't done any mods to this Phone cause it works fine for me the way it is. It'll it was a vzw branded phone then I would put a custom ROM... Hate bloatware. If anything, I might tinker to get bands 2&4...Maybe.
But I'll try a factory reset tomorrow after work... So assuming I should remove sim before hand?

Try allowing access to background data and turn off power saving.

I checked to see if what you suggested was in those settings.... They are and yet I still am unable to 3rd party apps. Even message+ gets pics if I'm using wifi. It's really annoying

I actually have the same problem with my HTC U11 that's on Verizon services. I posted a new thread about before I seen this one. My problems started a week or so ago. I was using Android Messages at the time this stopped working. I have put my SIM card in 3 other phones with the same result. I then put my wife's SIM card in my HTC and was able to receive picture messages on the HTC using her number. So that said to me it's not a phone issue but my SIM card. I got a new one today and activated it using my G5. I was able to get picture messages on the G5 put the new card in my HTC and it was a no go. It's weird that her card would receive mms messages on my phone but my old card or new one won't. And now that I've put the new one in my HTC I can no longer get picture messages on my G5. I also noticed that on the G5 settings i was no longer able to turn on video calling. It said that service was not turned on and needed to be enabled on my plan. My wife still uses her G5 and it will let her turn on video calling. It's almost as if this problem is attached to my phone number and something fishy is going on with Verizon. Seems weird my new card worked in my G5 then lost that ability after putting my card in the HTC.

I tried that and it didn't work for me. Only the stock app works for MMS.

Ya, only stock app works properly. Message+ works right only on wifi. Surprised that there's not more ppl commenting on this or found a fix
