[Q] Launcher Pro constantly restarting - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I've got a problem with Launcher Pro - it restarts everytime I return to it from an app.
I tried getting rid of a few background apps to decrease the used memory and tinkered with the memory settings of Launcher Pro - all to no help
Anyone got an idea what might be the problem here?
Froyd 1.2.2 w/ shipped kernel

try uninstalling pro launcher and reinstalling that worked for me in the past

I updated to 7.6.0, and up till now, no fcs!

I'm using the same FV 1.2.2 Rom and I must say that the same thing has been happening to my Hero. In fact, since installing FV 1.2.2, I have been getting so many FC's from Launcher Pro and music tracks keep stopping in mid stream.
I also find that the phone just switches itself off randomly.
Almost returned to VR12.0 because I had NO trouble with it but saw an update to Launcher Pro (I bought the 'Plus' version) and just installed it, so lets hold thumbs.

[Q] Noticing lag 3 weeks after root...what should i do?

I've had my vibrant about 3 weeks and its been rooted since the first day i've had it.....but now i notice a lag...particularly sliding between home screens. i've only installed about 5 apps plus the neccesary ones for root (Rom Manager, Root Explorer, Titanium Backup). So far i've only uninstalled and deleted The Sims 3 for TMobile. I've read about lag-fixes but i'm not sure if i need it. Would removing more of the bloatware that came with the phone speed it back up or should i apply a lag-fix....and if so which one is the best? Thanks in advance
Go to the market and search one click lag fix (app) thatz what i used it rooted my phone and applied the lag fix. Look for it on here the dev name is ryanza

Thanks....downloading now....but my phone is already rooted....will this app un root it when I install it?
You running Touch Wiz and many Widgets? I turned off the widgets and or I switched to Launcher Pro and I don't really experience any lag. Honestly I think all those lag fixes are over rated and many have suggested that after a week or so the lag comes back even worse.
No it will not un root your phone. Ryanza's lag fix will really speed things up.
ok....thanks for your input guys....i'll try it out and if it starts to lag again then i'll just remove it....thanks again guys

[Q] Home Nav Bar Problem

I'm still very new to android but I wanted to know if anyone is experiencing this same problem. whenever i swipe left/right at home to back/forth between diff. desktops, the contacts and call button do not go away. It's particularly annoying... Has anyone else had to experience this? is it a general android problem? Is there a fix for it?
I have attached a screenshot. Look at the bottom how they are overlapping.
Are you sure they're not part of your wall paper?

looks to me as tho you've installed launcher pro, and havent set it as the default home launcher, what u can do is download an app such as Home Switcher, and choose launcher pro as the default launcher for the phone, this should get rid of the default Blue launcher which is what you are seeing in the background
i installed launcher pro before and then restored the phone to factory settings because it happened a few days ago... so after that, i decided to stay away from launcher pro because i figured it might have had some bugs since the Atrix is brand new, blah blah blah.. Well, without touching launcher pro, it just happened again earlier today... I didn't install anything either. I might have unplugged the phone or something but other than that i have not installed any new apps today... I cannot remove it through the apps and it's not a part of the background... What can I do to fix this? There has to be some easier way than reseting to factory everytime? anyone else have any ideas? am i the only one experiencing this so far?
I still get the same problem... I find that when I go into the running application 'Home' and click clear data, the problem is solved. My icons and all my desktops are also cleared... Is there some sort of config file I could edit instead of losing my icons everytime this bug occurs? I also don't have launcher pro or any other launcher app installed atm.
i'd do another factory restore if not take it back to ATT if u bought it from them.
were you rooted before, and did you install the custom rom?
Both times it happened, I was rooted. I never installed the custom rom. I'm still trying to look into what's going on and see if I can find a config file that I can edit to change it.
Same problem with my new ATRIX
Hey everyone, I just bought the Atrix last week and had problems with it freezing right out of the box. The next day I noticed that the direction arrows that pop up when switching screens would pop up and overlap my call and contact buttons instead of them dissapearing just like he said. So I went and got it replaced yesterday and all last night and all today my phone was working flawlessly and I was very impressed and thought I must of had a dud until just now my phone froze while playing a game. GRRR not this again So I was forced to take out the battery to restart it and then I scrolled over to the next screen and the stupid arrows were overlapping the call and contact button again I think this must be a common problem. Two phones in a row this has happened. This is kind of pissing me off. Surely more than just the two of us must have this problem? And no I haven't done any of the things you guys said could have caused the problem. The first time it happened I hadn't downloaded anything other than facebook or ebuddy.
I was super excited for the atrix but now am wondering if I should have got something else.
So it turns out that it may have been a program called mixzing music player thatwas causing the problem. After having some problems with the app I removed it and reset my phone and the problem has resolved itself. If anyone with the same problem has mixzing on their phone I strongly recommend using something like winamp instead. My phone works great now and Bell finally released an update today aswell

Launcher constantly restarting

Hi all,
A while ago I my launcher began restarting itself very frequently. I thought it was the app (ADWLauncher EX) so I switched to GO Launcher and it still happened. So I guessed something was corrupted in the OS and I upgraded from 2.2 to 2.3.3. Still restarting frequently. Going back to the newest version of ADW Launcher didn't help either. Today I switched to SPB Shell 3D and guess what? It happens more than ever!
There is no force close message, but when I press the home button I have to wait for the launcher to start up again (several times per hour).
Something in my phone doesn't like launchers. Everything was fine until a couple of months ago when this problem suddenly appeared.
Has anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions?
Specs:
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S Captivate (I896)
OS: 2.3.3 (Samsung stock)
Carrier: Rogers (Canada)
No app killer running
Thanks in advance,

This is due to alot of ram being used and the OS is closing it out. A custom rom sets the launcher at a harder to level.
It is because your phone has less ram available on that time. If you are loading a heavy Ram software, it will automatically kill those apps so it will have more ram to load those heavy stuff. It is usual.

Thanks for the replies. Everything was fine until a couple of months ago so I must have installed a memory-hog app at some point.
How can I tell which app is using all the RAM?
Thanks in advance,

[Q] Resurrection Remix ics v1.0 PRO

Hey guys i just installed Resurrection Remix ics v1.0 PRO into my SG S2...is anyone else getting weird freezes for a few seconds during games and such??
And does anyone know a way to organize the application drawer manually without sorting??
Thanks.
1. Change kernel
2. What launcher are you using? It's possible sorting manually on TW Launcher, not on Nova or Apex.
I've been using this for some time now, the only issue I'm experiencing is that the phone freezez for 20 seconds when I try to delete a contact. Any ideas? Did I mess up kernel-wise?
Am using apex launcher....bah too bad...but i can live without manual organising xD

i dun get freazes when deleting contacts...just some incompatibility issues with accuweather and some other programs....everything else running great....
Does it force close after freezing? cus earlier when i used resurrection it used to freeze and force close. Its a problem related to the build.
Sometimes i get force close on some appls like skype and some games

[Q] A number of my apps are malfunctioning

Hello, I'd like to ask if anyone found any issues with the following apps as I did:
- WidgetLocker Lockscreen
- Zombie Tsunami
Zombie Tsunami hangs and crashes after a few seconds of running it, and it only happens to my S3. My friends and colleagues who are also on the S3 can run their app just fine, and we're all on the same version of the app. I've tried reinstalling, but no luck.
With regards to WidgetLocker, I can't add widgets to it. This was an issue with the app for the past few months or so, but even after yesterday's update I still can't add any. That said, the app may still just be broken.
In any case, I'm wondering whether it's my phone that's the problem. I'm running stock rooted JB 4.1.2, XXEME2. Thanks.
Factory reset
