Here's a neat trick that completely hoses your memory management. Hopefully somebody can tell me why. If you have other directories in Start Menu, you can only run one program at a time.....??????!!!!!!!!!!!!
I use Quickmenu, and like to set up my windows startup folders like so:
Programs
Media
Utilities
Office Apps
Settings
This allows me to be just a couple clicks from everything.
I recently flashed DCD's latest and LOVED all the extra memory to play with. I could just see myself driving down the road, listening to S2P, following my progress in Google Maps, switching over to check scores on the browser then answer a text....
AND I COULD! when I first loaded the ROM, I didn't have time to make my normal changes to the windows startup and went to work doing just what I illustrated.
Then when I got home, I sat down to set the folders up.
next day on the way to work...I had my music pumpin and opened up Google to check traffic....the music stopped....I lost S2P.
in fact...I could only run one app at once....seriously...if I was browsing this forum and tried to answer a text message, the browser would get dumped....
I couldn't figure it out....I started uninstalling, stuff left and right...but nothing helped. Then I moved my folders out of Start Menu and dropped them under Program Files
Program Files
-----Media
-----Office Apps
-----Utilites
Settings
Low and behold...I could run more than one program again...
SOMEBODY TELL WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON! ;-P
I haven't set up subfolders in Quickmenu for several ROMS now, but...
just guessing, what do you have your "ok" button set for in the Quickmenu options, or for that matter the "x-button" setting? I would play around with those settings. Maybe if the setting is a certain way, scolling and selecting an additional app through the menu structure also simultaneously closes the one thats active?

Thank you for the reply....If what you are suggesting is true, then I wouldn't matter how my folders were set up....the mere fact that I'm using QuickMenu is somehow closing the current app because of settings.
1. My settings do not change based on folder setup
2. Only when I have more than Programs and Settings in Start Menu do I have the problem.
I'm tellin' ya...there's something funky going on.
I know there is a way to do this but for some reason when I search all i get is how to factory reset the entire phone.
I simply want to restore the app data on my phone so that I can chose what application will do what when pushed.
FOR EXAMPLE:
When you first install Launcher Pro, the phone asks which Launcher would you like to use. After that, there is writing on how to remove that default. I cannot find how to do that.
Any help? I currently have vplayer on my phone, which I do not want to remove and reinstall but I do not want to it be my default player for certain media types.
Thanks
You need to go to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Select whatever app you're looking for to clear defaults for, and hit the clear defaults button once you select that app.

do what the guy above me said, or for easier use, download app "cleardefaults"
and then scroll down click clear defaults, click home and you can choose again.
So I got a picture message from a friend and when I clicked it to enlarge I got a choice of what to open it with: mediascape, gallery, or astro image viewer. Unwittingly I chose gallery and checked "always...", and the images wont load that way. Now every time I try to open a picture message I get the same error.
I tried deselecting gallery as default in "manage applications" but it didn't change anything.
Can anyone help without making me reset the phone?

Try clearing the cache of gallery and see if that works. If is does not, try uninstalling and reinstalling it after you set mediascape (or any other apk) as your default.
thanks, it worked. i uninstalled gallery and mediascape with titanium. unfortunately, now it wont let me restore them lol.
off to android development to try a new rom i guess
I'm just wondering if it is normal for system apps to show up as a downloaded app? I'm seeing the Dialer, Dialer storage and also two Settings apps. Is there a reason why they would show up there? Thank you in advance.

It should show under the "ALL" tab but not the "Downloaded" tab unless it's a 3rd party dialer. So no I don't think it's normal.
And if I dont have a 3rd party dialer? I'm not sure if it should have changed back but I flashed a new nightly, still there.... ?

hi how can i preform a total exit from stock browser in ics (with sense4)?
i mean, all the time that i'm exsiting from the browser, when i open it again it shows me the last page i was, instead my home-page like in the computer browser. so i wanna know how i'll be able to preform a totall exit, so when i'll enter again the browser it will show me my home-page?
sorry for my spelling,
tnx.
Go to browser settings > tab settings > uncheck restore tabs.
I don't know if it's a bug in the browser or in ICS or in the rom I use but if I turn off the restore tabs setting the browser always crashes when I open it after it's been killed. I open the browser and nothing happens. I try to go to my bookmarks and the browser force closes. I open the browser again and the same thing happens. It works fine after the third attempt.
did u already tried pressing back until exit? when u did that,go to task manager and close it. I seldom use stock browser because of that..
