some apps shrinking to half screen size - HTC EVO 3D

I noticed that certain apps such as "taxi magic" and "radar now" shrink when opened and only fill a little over half of the screen. It makes it really hard to use the app. These are apps that filled the whole screen on my evo 4g. Is this because of the screen dimensions of the 3d? anyone else having the issue or know how to fix?

Download Spare Parts from the market and uncheck compatability mode, reboot.

xiia live lite does it on mine. that is the only one so far. might try spare parts. i noticed the weather won't show the first digit if it goes up to 3 digit temps on lock screen. i saw this on the evo 4g roms but thought if was because the screen is different. didn't expect to see it on my 3d

Thank you... This has been driving me nutz!

There's two apps called Spare Parts in the Market and both are from different developers. Is there a difference between them?

Does anybody use this app? If so, has anyone noticed a bad lag when using it to download videos, especially when dragging down the status bar?
Been using it for a while now. Haven't noticed any lag but I usually don't pay too much attention. Gonna D/L something now.

Cool, let me know.
The only thing that really lags is when I try to pull down the notification bar when it's downloading. Scrolling through the home screens seems fine.

Well I just download about 10 different videos over 3G, 4G & Wifi. Didn't see any lag when pulling down the notification bar or the phone in general. Maybe you need to do a restart maybe? Sorry I couldn't re-create the problem you are having.

I've used it for years. No problems here

Still having the problem even after rebooting, uninstalling and reinstalling. Is there any advantage JetVD has over TubeMate?
So uninstalled JetVD, installed TubeMate and downloaded a Youtube file without any lag. I like JetVD's interface a lot better but I can't deal with the notification bar freezing up so I guess I'll keep TubeMate unless there's a better option.
I've been using FreeDi Youtube Downloader since I got my OG Evo 4G and I've loved it. Now continue to use it flawlessly on the Evo 3D.

App screen size?

Some apps are not normal size, they are very small when opened, so I was just wondering if anyone had that problem with some apps?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Yup. They need to update their apps.

That sucks so bad....
Is there no app that can resize for you?

You're not alone. Some apps can be made to fit the screen by installing spare parts and unchecking the compatible mode.
Thanks a lot this worked on like half my apps

Sense Slowdown

I've had my HTC EVO LTE for two weeks now. About there our for days ago, I started to notice that sometimes sense is slow when returning to my home screen.
It doesn't happen all the time. But sometimes, when I touch the home button, I get my wall paper with a "wait" circle. It takes about 15 out 20 seconds for the screen to become active.
I'm assuming it had to do with some app out apps I've installed, but who knows?
How do I troubleshoot this?

It's likely a app this happened to me when i had chainfire installed.

Must be an app, but inclase clear the data for the launcher and see what happens

It's in all apps . HTC Sense

It happens to me too. It's a sense thing I think. Low ram or something. I'm not too happy with my evo, considering returning it and waiting for the sgs3.

Maybe try wiping app caches as well.

Try removing some Widgets and see if it still happens. Or try a different launcher. I use nova. I don't care much for sense. No reloads on other launchers and they're more customizable.

Yeah, on my og EVO I used go launcher for the past 6 or 8 months, but I like sense. I'd like to keep it if possible.
I don't have many widgets.
Is there any log of when apps were installed? That would be helpful in trying to determine if a specific app caused this.

Car mode orientation

Is there a way to flip the car mode orientation? I can't find it. I would rather have my phone the other way, to get the cords out of my immediate view.
Both vlingo and HTC car mode auto orient to landscape, with the 'bottom' on the natural left side of the phone.
Thanks

Set orientation will be your best friend. I even use it to play temple run in landscape mode.

Thx! I downloaded it and so far so good. I've been looking for something like this since I purchased my EVO LTE. Quick question... How is this app on the phone battery? Have you noticed any big drains on your battery? I hope not...
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Nope it hasn't effected my battery life. It only keeps that persistent notification so that Sense doesn't go and kill it. I personally disable it when I know I won't be using it for awhile only because I try to save as much memory as possible and because it's not the best looking icon to have on my screen haha.

Is it ics, sense or just my apps?

XDA hd
Usaa
Slacker radio
These three apps have a problem on my phone. If I use the app the next time I use it I have to force close it first then open it up again except the force close isn't the same as when there was a problem on the old evo. Hard to explain but non the less time consuming.
Sent from my EVO using XDA Premium HD app
Ok here is a little more detail. With Slacker I click the icon and the screen goes blank for a sec then I have to click it again.
Usaa when I open it I get a toast that says logoff successful then it says sorry usaa app has closed then I click it again and it's fine.
XDA does the same thing but without the logoff toast message.

Have never had those issues, but on the xda app on sense ROMs, the boot up image for xda would always have vertical black bars along the sides, squishing the xda pic. On AOSP, like CMX by Deck, that doesn't happen. So it is likely Sense doing that in my case. Weird, but annoying.
