From the start menu choose Settings, then Menu->All settings. Click on "Today". At the bottom of the screen choose "Items". Check that "HTC Sense" (and nothing else) is checked then press okay at the top right of the screen. Press your home button and see if the problem is fixed.
Good luck.

Blank Start Menu 1.90 Asia WWE, Help!

When I press the start button the start menu is Black and only shows the contents once i press up or down.
Is there a fix for this. I have searched all over the forum. (Is there a way of using google search just on this forum rather than the entire site?)

What do you mean press up or down? A screenshot would be helpful.

There is an option Search this thread right above your message. (see attachment).
The start menu drops down but it is totally Black. Solid.
Only the search at the top of the page uses google. The other search uses the useless forum search tool.
Is there anything in \windows\start menu\programs? There should be the shortcuts for your programs (set at
Start -> Settings -> Menus).
Yes, It is odd, as soon as I press the direction pad on the phone all the items suddenly appear.
I am also getting this problem. I just recently installed and ran MemMaid. I did a quick fix thing, and optimised my DLLs, could that be what is effecting it?
I have just solved my problem. In the System tweaks area of MemMaid, I checked the two boxes 'Animate Windows' and 'Animate Menus'. When I unchecked these, my start menu now displays correctly.
Thanks Nalixor, sorted me out as well

[Q] How to get into the test menu on my X10

Obviously I've scearched the site and found
From key lock screen, press "menu > back > back > menu > back > menu > menu > back"
which does nothing what so ever
and
*#*#4636#*#*
Which gets me into a nice menu with some usefull info but nothing that will allow me to test the different parts of the phone.
The reason I need this is to test my screen, it will sometimes not react when I touch the borders of the screen, some other times, like when writing messages, it will show the letter "a" in big, but it will not actually be added to my message.
Is this a common problem, the message system (It does the same on internet browser) or is it just my phone.
And how do I get into the menu from lockscreen?
I got rooted stock .435 with .54bb
Tks for an excellent site
It's home back back home back home home back

Thanks a lot!
Smal but significant difference between home and menu buttons...
;-)
Anyone has similar issues with the letters not performing properly? The touchscreen seems to be working properly, I whited almost all the screen.
Is it a common .435 problem?

Yes, it is! But the combination you had at the begining is for Donut 1.6. For 2.1 is with home button.
For the typing, I recomend to use another keyboard since stock have this problem with the side letters.
is there any chance, to get into this menu with a 2.2 custom rom ?

[Q] Home-button action

HI all
Yesterday I've installed MiniCM7 Pro latest version. It worked, but I've ran into a problem which I can't find the right setting for.
I've caused this problem myself. When I click on my home-button, a pop-up appeared on my screen asking which action it should take for the home-button. I had 2 choices: SE home screen, and menu-list.
I ticked the checkbox "always take this action" and selected the SE-option. It should've been the menu-list though. Whenever I quit an application with the home-button now, it goes directly to my home screen (which I find very annoying).
Where is the setting located to adjust this?

go to settings>applications>installed applications>all applications and tap on your SE Homescreen and then Clear defaults. this will solve your problem
Thank you so much, that did the trick indeed! Couldn't find it trough all these topics here on XDA.

New to S2 Homescreen questions

Got my S2 today and love it. But I have a few questions.
1. When I delete items on my home screen and don't add any I get this dumb message that stays on the home screen that I can't get rid off it say
"Press and hold this page to add content"
Well I don't want anything on their, so how do I get rid of that?
Thanks..
Never seen that .
Home screen remove app
Edit
Drag icon to bin

Also how do I rename a folder in the app drawer? I've tried everything and I can't seem to get it....

open the folder and long press the name and an edit box will pop up
When I do that it just drags the folder to the home screen. Its a folder I created to put all the bloatware into. I want to name it bloatware, but all it says is folder 1.
Edit
Add Folder
Drag Folder to Page
Enter Name Box Opens
TYPE NAME
Yes
Close
= named folder .

I have a different question re the home screen - can you set screen 3 to be the default screen the phone goes to when you press the home button? Kinda makes more since being able to scroll a screen left or right.. starting at 1 means you can only go one direction..

I'm sorry, what?? What are you talking about? Your post is so incoherent it's frustrating. How does this have anything to do with what falcon26 was asking?
@falcon26: This is apparently another one of AT&T's "bright" ideas, and I agree, I hate looking at it. I wish those fuktards at AT&T would stop wiping their stinky, sh!tty codemonkey fingers all over my device. I can't wait to get my Otterbox commuter so I can cover up the stupid AT&T logo on the front.
Ranting aside, I don't think this message displays on blank pages of the international variant of the SGH-i9100 (someone correct me if I'm mistaken). I'm sure there is a way to remove it, but I'm not sure what that is. I would definitely appreciate it if someone would chime in and offer a permanent solution (i.e. what code/picture to remove from whatever .xml/launcher file/directory, etc.), but in the mean time, I have a band-aid that works around this and ultimately accomplishes the same thing.
1. Go to https://market.android.com/details?id=org.hk.sticky
2. Install Sticky Widget
3. Add Sticky Widget to the screen you want to remove the "Press and hold this page to add content" message from.
4. When you add the widget a preferences screen will pop-up. Set the background to "Transparent" and press "Set".
4. Presto! No more idiot message. Just be mindful of where you put the widget so you don't press it by accident.
@micks_address:
1. From the Home screen, press the Menu button.
2. Press Edit. Thumbnails of all your homescreens will then appear in a matrix, with the "Remove" trashcan icon at the bottom.
3. Press the Menu button again.
4. Then press "Set as Home".
5. Press the thumbnail of the screen that you wish to become the default Home screen.
6. Press "Done"
7. Done

[Q] How to save arranged icons on Samsung Galaxy S2

I have arranged the icons on my Samsung Galaxy S2 to my preference.
However, every time I turn on the phone (after turning it off) all the icons kept rearranging itself.
Can anyone please tell me how to solve this problem?
Thanks
You have to clear data from touchwiz. Go to settings, manage applications, and funds touchwiz. Worked for me.

can't find it
Hi, sorry for not getting back earlier.
Go to "settings", then press" applications". Then press the second button, "manage applications". Once in there, press the second button called "all", scroll down to "TwLauncher", and once in there, press "Clear data." You will have to setup your icons again, then it should work right. Mine was doing that, and that's what helped me.
Let us know how you go.

Have same issue, and it didnt work for me.
Update: Tried same again, and it seems to be working, cheers, but i think it will reset again later.
Anyway, it's better than nothing.
many thanks for the tips
will try it later
GoEx also allows you to save/backup your page/icon layouts. I've restored mine successfully after ensuring the app linked to a each icon was restored first.
Use AppZorter
