my amaze is reloading home everytime i go into an app and press the home button to go back to the launcher. It gives me a white background with the green htc logo and then has the loading wheel saying loading... It take like 20 seconds or so to reload the launcher. I have not installed or modified any app in weeks and this started happening yesterday randomly. I rebooted it and still didnt help. i even cleared the data in htc sense in application settings. Can someone help me fix this? Thanks in advance
I would call HTC support. I found them to be helpful in sorting an issue last week. because that's an odd one. there is a good chance they will have factory reset the device though.

Do a factory reset by going to settings storage factory reset.
What ROM are you using? do you have an app that kills any app you back out of? If so that's the problem. Your launcher is reloading every time.
Please post questions in the correct area

Had the same issue
I had the same problem. I tried the factory reset, flashing the stock RUU, but I still had the issue. Relief didn't come to me until I received this replacement phone from T-Mobile a few days ago. I haven't had the issue yet at all when I would have it almost anytime I closed an app with my old phone. Good luck!
You guys do know this was posted on December of 2011, right?
LOL!! Trolled!!! ^^^^^^^

So I ran across this article today about improving voice quality http://androidforums.com/htc-evo-3d...r-vocoder-settings-improve-voice-quality.html
After trying this method when I rebooted phone, low and behold my missing phone icon was back on the lockscreen! What the heck? Figured I'd better let everyone know my findings!
Any idea why the phone icon disappeared? I got the same prob and I searched for like half an hour thru the phone

If you did the update you will lose your phone icon. You need to go into HTC updates as there is another update available in there if you hav not done that one. It will give you your phone icon back after you update and soft reset your device.
I had to keep checking for the update before it actually showed available.
ota
I did the OTA update and still had phone icon
I did a hard reset and while the phone icon returns, as soon as you cange the lock screen icons, it's gone again. You will have to download the update mentioned previously.

Make sure to go into settings, software updates and check the HTC one. If it doesn't come up, keep checking throughout the day. That is what I had to do after I hard reset when device after taking the 1st update.
You will need the additional software update to get your phone icon back as that update does not stick on a hard reset. It will show up without it, but once you change it will not be available again like mentioned.
Strange... You may be right though my icon is back

Problem is when I apply a new Rom everything works fine for about one week. Then I start getting this issue if i go to settings or messaging I can't back out. I have to do a battery pull. Search back menu home. When i touch those options nothing happens. Kinda like its froze up. Power option works too to reboot the phone and everything works fine for another week then starts up again. Not sure if its a hardware issue or not. Haven't tried going back to stock. Has anybody had this issue. Would appreciate any help.

Are you using a 3rd party app for messages or a theme or launcher? What rom you on?
no real weird i have tried multiple roms does the same thing on all of them. did not start having this issue until that last ota update, i relocked my phone unrooted etc. then updated to that last ota, waited for some devs to come out with roms based on that ota, then unlocked again and rooted and applied viper rom it happened on that rom, tried scotts clean rom same thing and a few others i get the same thing after about a weeks of use i start getting the freezing thing where i cant back out of certain things, like if i go to setting mms etc. pretty much anythaing i go into i cant back out or the search or home menu and menu does not work when i touch it, only way i can get out is power button reboot or just battery pull, then everything is back to normal for a week, im thinking its a hardware issue but not sure. i guess im going to try to relock unroot again and see if i get the same issue, if i do wouldnt you think its a hardware issue ? And i am not using any special launchers just what comes with the rom.
I got this out my phone a few weeks ago when I checked to see if I had an ICS update :thumbdown:
Of course I didn't.
Well now this message "connecting to DM server" stays in my notification bar. It also stays running. I did a check to see how much they battery life it was eating and it was well over 60%.
I tried the settings, manage apps, att update, clear cache but it still ran.
I finally used app quarantine to stop it.
Well now that we may get ICS soon I want the update option to run with out it running at all times.
Anyone else having this issue?

Connecting to DM Server
I had the problem today. Went to manage Running Apps and was able to stop.
If this does not work, did you try rebooting the phone?
I have tried resting the phone.
I even shut the phone off and took the battery out for 5 min.
It won't go away unless I put it in app quarantine.

I'm also having this same problem and have done everything that you've done to try and fix the problem, but it's still happening. Have found a fix by chance? This has been going on for about a week or two.

Load titanium backup and freeze it, or you could delete it too.
I just deleted it.....g
Mine just started showing this in the notification tray yesterday. I can freeze it and the notification goes away, but I don't think we want to delete it though, right? Isn't this how the phone connects to the AT&T server to get software updates? I figure I'll freeze it for a few days then defrost it and see if it fixes itself or connects to the server.
Ok, I'm gonna keep it as short as possible.
I got a used S2, it was fine, it told me that it had to do a software update, so I did (the phone was being charged). When I turned it on, there was no homescreen, just black.. after a while it said something like "application is not responding".. the top bar still works and by using that I could get into the playstore and installed Nova Launcher. Then I got a new homescreen and menu, but lock screen still doesn't work. If the phone gets rebooted or if I press back sometimes, it gets back into the black screen and freezes, showing the not responding message again.. The camera and Whatsapp also don't work. I did factory reset, cashe wipe, tried rooting it with Odin, it still has this problem..
My head is exploding. Does anyone know what else I can try? Or like a way to make a launcher (for example Nova Launcher) the start-up homescreen?
Have you tried Odin'ing a stock firmware back to it? Its worked every time I've bricked mine

I tried CF-roots.. I'm searching for a firmware, but I don't know which one I need. The phone is from Switzerland, but I don't see Switzerland listed anywhere.
Edit: I also tried I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXALPQ_I9100XXLPQ_HOME.tar

For Odin firmwares, check this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487
its where I grabbed my first few ICS updates before I gave up on TW and moved on to AOKP
Also, it doesn't really matter where you're handset's from, as long as you only flash the firmware/software for the i9100 (as opposed to i9100g or i777 or something) its fine, the code's universal, and it doesn't change the system language when you flash it, and as long as you're not going from 4.1 back to 4.0, it keeps all your apps, setting, data, son and so forth without an issue (so if you're on 4.0.4 at the moment, you shouldn't have an issue going back to 4.0.3 is that's all you can find)

I did, still nothing.
The 4.3 update of my HTC One got 2.8MB downloaded and then stopped. I let it sit for a couple hours and it didn't change at all. I tried several things to "kick" it into motion, but nothing worked (turning on/off data, etc.).
In a desparate attempt to get it to continue, I restarted my phone (bad choice, I see). Now, when I touch "Check for updates" on the "AT&T software update" screen, it doesn't do anything. No dialogs -- nothing.
Is there a way I can clear out the partial download and reset the state of that process and trigger it to start again?
Thanks for any help!

Mine did the same thing. What I found is that it needs Wifi to complete the download. If you restart the phone and let it see Wifi, it should resume the download without any interaction from the user.
Try this
1. I disabled Power Saver Mode and all the options obviously
2. I turned off the option in the Settings --> Power --> Turned off the sleep mode where the data connection gets cut off during long periods of inactivity after the screen is off
3. Went to Settings --> Wifi --> Advanced and then turned on the option for best WiFi performance
4. Set the screen time out to 10 minutes, try to keep the screen from timing out just in case and dont use your phone while it is downloading
5. Powercycled my Router and Modem
6. Restarted the Phone and tried to update then!
GOODLUCK!

This was exactly the issue! I actually didn't need to restart the phone though. I just enabled WiFi and the download resumed.
Perfect. Thank you soooo much!

A different twist for me...
I'm experiencing a similar issue, but with a twist...
After what looked like a successful DL of the OTA 4.3 OS Update on my AT&T HTC One, the actual update never kicked off.
Now when I touch "Check for updates" on the "AT&T software update" screen, it doesn't do anything. You can see the button move, but you get no response, No dialog, Nothing....
Is there a way I can kick off the DL'ed update file or clear out the [possibly corupted?] download and reset the state of that process and trigger it to start again?
The DL happened Thurs Oct 10th 9AM.. I had a similar type hiccup the last Maintenance Update that AT&T / HTC sent out, and waiting 24 hrs cured that... But, as of now, more than 24 hrs later, No Joy!!
Anyone out there have a fix??
Please Advise.

Try disabling fastboot and restarting your phone. Mine kinda did that on the maintenance update. Hope it works for you..

Sadly, that did not work for me...
I spoke with the AT&T Support folks and they have indicated that the only way to resolve this issue is to do a Factory Reset.... Ugghh!!
I'm backing up my phone now and seriously thinking of doing just that.. Can anyone talk me off that ledge??
Much Joy!!

So, being the patient kind of guy I am, I fought back the urge to do a Master Reset, as the good folks @ AT&T told me was the only way to remedy my issue, and instead slept on it....
Lo and behold, 48hrs after the initial failed DL / No Upgrade, I got the "Update available for my Device" pop-up... The DL was a bit faster, at the end the Upgrade kicked off as expected, and all is well...
Patience is one of the most important tools you can keep in your bag-o'-tricks... Good luck to all out there...
