Is anyone else having this issue? Whenever I exit an app and go to the home screen, I have to wait for the home screen to load up again. EVERY TIME!
Could it be the stock task manager closing the launcher? Also can I put it on the ignore list, because I didn't see an option for that.
If anyone knows how to get rid of this inconvenience, please let me know. Thanks.

That used to happen on my EVO Shift all the time after gingerbread was released. Decreasing the number of widgets helped back then. Hopefully this is an issue that will be addressed as I have seen it mentioned a couple times.
To fix it on the Shift if you were rooted you could download an app called AutoKiller Memory Optimizer and change some setting. I can't remember since all the custom roms I used made the change. Maybe it would work in this case as well. I think the memory management section is what helped. The presets HTC uses are aggressive I think and kill off the Launcher to free up more memory before it's really needed. The app isn't really a task killer but more of an app you can use to tweak the point at which the phone starts freeing up memory.
It's happened to me after using the phone for a while. Noticed this after WiFi at home is not connected and been using the world's fastest way to get frustrated, using 3g service. What I've done is restart the phone and works excelent. Don't think that's he right answer but it's been working.

I even uninstalled the stock task manager but that didn't work either. Unless there is one built into sense that I don't have access to. I'm rooted but my bootloader isn't unlocked.

My phone randomely does this as well...I dont understand why since it has plenty of horsepower and I dont run any heavy widgets..they def need to release an update to address these issues as well as the multitasking issues..two things that my older evos had no issue with
One app that bugged my phone was McAfee security, uninstalled and runs more smoothly. Have had all 3 EVO phones and same thing, one app running on background takes up to much memory.

there is a fix for this in the one x forums somewhere. you have to modify and recompile some system files if you are rooted. I am not rooted, and I hate this. sense 4 is seriously hog-party sloppy
there is a way to fix it if you are rooted,
what you are doing in esense is keeping the launcher from being dropped in the menory and making it a pryority app
In terminal emulator:
type
Code:
su
Then type
Code:
echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 >> /data/local.prop
and enter
Then reboot.
thank you, seriously. need root

Been a known and frustrating problem with sense for some time.
Take a look at the last post on this thread is you want all the links that discuss this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680020
Problem started on my OG EVO a few months ago and was right back on the LTE. From reading the threads it looks like it is worse on the LTE for a lot of people. I did get a response from HTC to a Facebook post about this, they suggested I take out the battery and wait a bit then put it back in! LOL
What stopped me from going nuts about it and perhaps returning the phone was the Nova launcher which has stopped the problem completely.
Rooting and tweaking of course can solve it as well, but I'm wanting to hold off on that for a bit until we see if any major OTA will be coming out.

Yep, Nova worked for me as well. The phone was not having the problem initially, just started happening after a few hours
Thanks runandhide05 but the command didn't work after i rebooted the phone.
@midmofan I really don't want a custom launcher. I'm probably just gonna unlock the bootloader and start flashing ROMs. I wanted to wait so i didnt have to use HTCDev, but this issue makes me not even want to use my phone anymore.

lag issues? i'm not familiar with blade buddy or that touch screen app for galaxy.
i haven't done anything *too* intensive on the phone but i have rarely experience any type of lag on this device. the lack of lagging has been very impressive to me.
if you are on the stock ROM and kernel and still experiecing lag, based on my personal experience, you might want to look into taking it back for an exchange as it could be a hardware issue.
if you don't experience the lag on a stock ROM and kernel, it might be whatever custom ROM or kernel you're using has an issue or bug. if you're on a custom ROM/kernel, also good to check in those specific threads to see if anybody else has reported a similar issue so the dev knows to look into it and resolve.
hope that helps!
Yea when I first got the phone the xda east major laggy and that's before I rooted so I guess I need to take it back then cuz this sucks...since I rooted its been flawless but couple days later the lag would come back and now my screen is becoming unresponsive at time for like 2-3 secs!!!

yea. as a last resort test, i'd flash everything back to stock and run it for a day. see if its still laggy. if it is still laggy, find good examples of when it lags so when you take it back, you can show the person how laggy it is through the examples.
hopefully you can swap out for a device w/no issues!

lol yea, given the unknown area rooting a device currently sits from a legal standpoint, i'd avoid anything related to rooting the device as a prime example.
ideally, if you're experiencing lag on the device, it will occur frequently in common tasks like making/ending a phone call or moving between text messages or moving between menus in the settings screen, etc. it makes the best case for having an issue when you're able to demonstrate it lags during normal routine operations.

if you find some good common tasks which cause the device to lag, post them back here as people with the same or similar issues might find this thread through searching and it'll give them some rough benchmark to compare against.
i've yet to see this device lag through any common tasks i run. previous android phones ive had would experience lag so this device has definitely impressed me!

i put mine back to stock and my screen well freeze or lag couple times a day and i have to hit power button to put it to sleep and wake it back up to stop it from doing that and that last only a couple hours.
I waited and waited. Thought about rooting and using a ROM before the official ICS update came from AT&T but just decided to wait. Finally got the update via Kies, excited like a school girl. Initially it was a cool new bit of scenery, and as the OS settled in with me, i found myself disappointed and wanting my gingy back. I've been upgrade for a couple months now i think, and had plenty of time to try to get used to it.
I am finding lots of things that just plain suck.
1 - Text message notification audible alert discontinues after awhile (unknown amount of time), only resolution I've found is to reboot the phone. This sucks because just out of nowhere my text notification tone stops. Everything else like ringtone etc is fine. This is a dealbreaker for me almost. This worked fine on Ginerbread.
2 - new Swype software gives me problems when the word suggestion feature stops working completely. Swype is hard to do without word suggestions at times. Only solution i've found is again, reboot the phone. This sucks. I know, don't use swype, but i WANT to use it. It worked perfectly on Gingerbread.
3 - the widget for Google Voice is super tiny now, and i don't see a way of making it bigger. It's approximately the size of 4 icons, whereas before on Gingerbread it was huge and you could easily read/see your voicemails. Maybe i'm missing something on how to change the widget size, but i see no way of doing it.
4 - my News and Weather widget, which i used for weather and news all the time, since my original Galaxy S, does not display any weather information anymore. Just says "No Weather Information". this worked fine on Gingerbread. I guess different phone OS makes widgets work differently. I just want mine to work as expected. News still comes through fine though.
5 - Unlocking the screen seems more difficult now, usually takes me a couple tries, whereas it seemed really smooth and awesome before the update
6 - Power Saving widget is huge now, takes up half of one screen, whereas before it was just 1 row and you could scroll across. Why make it bigger and take up more room with no additional functionality?
After listing all this out, i'm trying to think of the things i LIKE about ICS update, and i can only think of one, which is the data monitoring/limiting which is kind of a cool feature. I doesn't seem any faster really than before. So overall, i honestly was happier with Gingerbread. 6 things that i find that suck versus one thing i like.
Maybe this is me being picky, but as excited as I was to get ICS, i'm equally disappointed in the upgrade. My wife uses a Galaxy Note and it is available for her phone now, and I told her don't bother with the upgrade.
Anyone have any advice??? experience the same problems? I know i could root, install a custom rom etc, but i really like the touchwiz stuff from samsung and i was really happy with just the stock gingerbread OS, even with all the bloatware, i just disregard all that junk.
I'm having the same problem with text notification I just notice that I get a text it would sound but just about an hour ago it just stopped I would get a text and nothing ringtones works and everyrhing but I think is a ics bug maybe it would get fixed in the new update 4.0.4

at&t sucks. bottom line.
Advice, if you want to stick with touchjizz, run a custom one, there are plenty that *should* have those issues taken care of.
But the widget size issue, thats just looks, with a different launcher can change size of widgets.
Lol I called this one. A bunch of people upgrade to stock ICS. Then they complain and want to switch back, mess it up, and start new threads. Hopefully they all learned their lesson about carrier upgrades . I mean even I tried it, just to see what it looked like and how it functioned. Then again I knew how to get back to a custom Rom Before I did it. It's actually not too bad, but there were just too many bugs and battery life was too bad for my taste.

You just seem like you want people to brick and make more topics about how they tried to reset and bricked. You also need to think of Google searches that link to this topic and they read it and see you said reset and they do it.

The only way to go "back" to Gingerbread is to flash UCKH7 straight stock or one of the Gingerbread stock plus root packages in Entropy512's thread. So yes, use that, or one of my guides.
Didn't see anywhere in the thread if the bluetooth was or wasn't working. Just though I'd let you guys know that bluetooth crashes my Tbolt. I've tried it a few times, just turning it on crashes and when I try to view the bluetooth menu. And now I'm stuck in a bootloop. This is my first post and due to the sight rules I can't post on the actual thread, perhaps a mod can move this to it. Otherwise this has been great!
Try flashing the imoseyon kernal. This should fix your Bluetooth issues.

I see that it is a GB kernel and this is an ICS rom. I don't know if that makes a difference. Still pretty new at this, that's why I'm asking.
My apologies. No you cannot use this with ICS. Its early in the morning and thought I read the title to be about Jesters other ROM Jellyblur (GB ROM themed to look like ICS). There are no custom kernals yet for the Thunderbolts ICS until HTC drops the source. I will try to re-create this issue and I will get back with you unless someone gives a solution before me lol. Once again my apologies.
If you are in a bootloop you may have to re-wipe and re-install the ROM. It may have been a bad flash if BT was not working and caused a bootloop.
EDIT: although irrelevent for this ROM, the link you provided is an outdated custom kernal. The Dev has since then updated to 6.2.1

Hi,
Well you are in luck I had the exact same problem today and finally found the fix. I was using the . 9 radio was working fine so thought its ok but since bluetooth was my only issue I flashed ( in hboot) the . 19 radio and now no bluetooth problem. Not only turn it on and off able to use it!
Phone has not rebooted once since I did this.
Hope this helps you out,

Since the problem got solved...figured I'd jump in with a couple issues that I'm having with this rom.
1* I go into settings and to my apps. When I click an app and it brings up the space used and other info...everything says computing and doesn't show a value. I'm trying to move my apps to the SD and it does nothing since they wont compute. Anybody with this issue...a fix?
2* When I get a SMS, the LED keeps blinking after the message is closed or replied to. It stops after a few minutes, but its annoying. I have GoSMS.

1. Wait and let it total all the apps before entering to move them. It may take a minute if you have a lot of apps.
2. That's a bug with gosms. I never could figure out a fix other than disabling the led notification.

Usually a reboot and waiting 5 after boot corrects this problem.

What about reseating the sdcard?

Gads. I've waited 2 years to root my phone and the first ROM I flash toasts it. I downloaded the Skyraider Zeus 1.3 and everything looked fine. When it rebooted, though, I realized I'm not able to do anything.
I slide the lock to get into the phone and I'm greeted by a dialog about in-call volume. All I can do is hit the Silent button and it switches between that and bluetooth volume. I can't figure out how to get past it so I can actually do anything.
Ideas?
ETA: Now I'm really sick to my stomach. I decided to restore from backup. Neither one of the backups I made prior to flashing are working.
Error while restoring /data!
WTF? Now I'm dead in the water.
4pm Update: I figured I have a brick now so I wiped data/factory reset, wiped cache. Now I'm trying to re-install Skyraider. I'm not holding my breath.
You're not bricked.
Go back into recovery...
Wipe data/factory reset 3x, wipe cache, and then wipe dalvik cache.
Flash the ROM.
You should be good.

Thanks. I did that and it worked. I guess I have to reinstall everything.
Why would two different backups fail to restore? The first I did manually last night through Titanium. The second I did when I flashed through ROM Manager.
That's your problem using rom manager. Download 4ext in the play store and you wont have backup issues.

Will do. What a debacle it started out to be. I think I'm ok now. I got the ROM working and for some reason although I wasn't able to boot into recovery and restore I have been able to restore my apps and data through Titanium. I have to say buying the Pro license was worth not having to acknowledge each install. :laugh:
One thing I noticed is that I used to be able to slide the task bar down and have two options. Initially it was set with notifications but I could select a tab to make quick selections like enable/disable the hotspot, etc. I'll have to figure out why I only see notifications now. Maybe that's just part of the ROM behavior.

That's strange that you don't see the quick settings tab.
Usually after flashing a ROM through recovery, I flash it an extra time so that I know it gets all the files through.
I know when I flashed Gingeritis 3D, I couldn't get the music player to stop force closing when I changed the music sound effects. The only way to fix these issues and a few others was to flash it a couple more times, without wiping anything at all. Dirty flashes (not wiping) could possibly fix any issues as long as you haven't changed any of the ROMs settings or set up anything.

Ha! I was just trying to grab a screenshot and found Quick Settings. I accidentally tapped the top of the window and now I see it. However, it only lists Wi-Fi, BT, GPS, and media volume. I really hope I can figure out how to add the hotspot.
ETA: Found it in Skyraider settings! I'm getting closer to where I wanna be!

To change those settings in that menu you would probably have to look in the skyraider settingsm

This is getting better. Now I'm posting from my netbook connected via WiFi tethering an not using the Verizon hotspot! This will save me another $30/mo.
So far this ROM seems to be much faster jumping between apps than stock. I'm going to play with it a few days and then throw caution to the wind and try the Skyraider ICS ROM. :silly:
Skyraider ics? I wasn't aware that they had an ics rom for the bolt.

My bad. I followed it from the Skyraider download but it's the ICS leak for HTC.

That rom blows. If you want a working decent sense 3.6 get nusense from the infectedrom forums.

Nusense is actually on my list. These are what I was initially looking at trying:
Liquid Smooth AOKP
SkyRaider Zeus 1.3
NuSense
I think I'm like most Tbolt users that are tired of waiting for ICS. I wasn't sure about Nusense because I was believing that Sense was the source of a lot of my problems. However, SkyRaider (even though it's neither ICS nor Sense-less) is running considerably better. My phone was next to useless. It might take 1-2 min just for the stupid thing to dial a # once it was selected. I'd tell people if I ever needed 911 I'd be dead before it even dialed. I also had a lot of problems with messaging and general performance. So maybe it was just a bloatware problem that was dragging me into the mud.
Now that I'm having a positive experience with SR I think I'm going to make NuSense my next one. It looks very promising. I appreciate the warning and help to steer me clear.

You should try Twisteds version of Liquid ICS AOSP . Only problem is Netflix and video can don't work. But other than that its a great rom --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33076925

Thanks. I'll give it a shot. I don't use Netflix much from the phone so that's not a deal breaker.
How is it with data? I flashed NuSense yesterday morning and flashed back to SkyRaider last night. I couldn't stay connected. The data drops were horrible. It was odd. I'd have the 3G/4G icon like I was connected but couldn't surf/email/etc. Then other times I'd lose the 3G/4G altogether. Sometimes resetting the mobile data would work and other times it would just laugh at me.
I guess I didn't give it much of a chance since it only lasted <12 hours but it was driving me nuts. Nothing like spending time with family and not being able to surf and escape.
Any liquid based ics rom is plagued with data drops.

I'm not getting them that bad. Maybe twice a day at best. Have you tried pulling your sim for a little bit.

You don't get data drops on other builds? Have you checked the gold tabs under your battery door and bald sure they aren't damaged? Maybe check to see if they are making good contact too.

Ugh. That's not good. SkyRaider has been rock solid on data. The only thing I've really run into is it seems flashing my apps with app2zip only works on some things. I end up having to re-flash Kindle, Lookout, and a few other apps once I'm up and running again.
I was really looking forward to ICS but not if data drops are the norm.
So I've been debating if to root or not for a couple of days now, I just got the phone last week, so I'm still getting used to sense 5.
Now heres what I ask myself, knowing that the development for our specific device is a bit slow, and flashing one of the international roms will make us loose some key features (like wifi calling).
It has me thinking what would be the real benefit to root out device right now?

If you have to ask, then don't root.

Bingo. Don't root without a compelling reason.
Im still not rooted and I have not missed it that much,
When AOSP gets stable on this phone however I will probably root and try it out and see If I prefer it over sense

i will be getting mine today, and i will root right away, mainly because i want to use the htc logo as a menu button and disable those three dots
I rooted mine day one (I got mine the day they released last month)
I am running a great ROM and I dont regret rooting one bit, it was totally worth it for the ROM that I am using right now. I still have WiFi calling and more.
Which Rom are you using?
And what features does it have if you don't mind me asking.

It has the latest HTC build for this phone, that includes better camera and GPS fixes and better response with the touch buttons. The phone seems snappier and it has better battetylife and it has no more bloat and in benchmarks I score higher now. I can install adaway on my phone now. And more will be in the 8.0 release. I also like the mods (like the percentage battery mod)

From what I've read none of the international roms have wifi calling....
I mean I know I can flash custom kernels and get certain things like HTC2menu or back2menu...
But as far as roms I thought they werent none out for us specifically right now... Or maybe I'm mistaken...

That ROM does have WiFi calling. It has tmobile specific features in the installer. You should try it out.

I have rooted every phone I've owned within 3 days of getting it. However, ive had my one for two weeks now and honestly I don't have a compelling reason to root. Bloat? Virtually non-existent. And what is there is "freezable" within the stock rom. Sense5 is remarkably robust, fast, and solid.
But that's just me.

I've been wanting to root but haven't yet. Only thing I want is WiFi tether and HTC button to work as menu key.
To me, I have to root HTC one due to annoyances. Don't get me wrong, sense is neat... But 3 dot menu bar needs to go, GPS indicator in the status bar is too clunky, and power saver message that won't go away??! If those things were different, I wouldn't root.

Gotta have Root for Me
There are alot of reasons for root for some users, and for some not so much. It is always one of the first things I do. You can have root and keep a stock ROM it just gives you options, and when you get bored with stock these amazing cooks on XDA always have something brewing for you to check out. Some of my reasons to root specific to the HTC One on TMO.
Flash a writable kernel so my system files are now writable. Currently using Bulletproof.
DoubleTap2Wake so I don't have to bang on the IR blaster all day. HTC buttons don't like to be used, they always end up failing or plain falling out.
got rid of the 3 button menu bar and now have the HTC Logo as the menu button. Sweeet!
Makes it easier to back up and restore. I use several devices so I can Box my Titanium files and quickly be in the same position across whatever device I decide to use at the time.
Customization. blue % battery mod, transparent app drawer, transparent blinkfeed clock. I can do custom icons and get rid on annoying ones likd NFC or GPS.
The most important is to beat the stupid enterprise settings on exchange. I have to have email on my device, but i cant stand using a PIN or Pattern. solution=root!
My $0.02
Root to use your Playstation 3 controller. =.3
That's the main reason. And there's a MOD that lets you map the HTC button. That's pretty cool. (Not to repeat what others have already stated)
Also, how important is WiFi Calling? People seem to really want that. I haven't used it. LoL!! I'm guessing it's good for those that travel a lot?

WiFi calling is pretty important to me, mainly because where I work I have zero signal but do have access to wifi (I'm right underneath the access point, which is nice).
Some people depend on it at home as well, such as my boss' son.
As far as root goes....I haven't rooted yet, I just haven't felt the need to. :shrug:
Only reason I rooted was to use my MOGA Pro as a regular gamepad. Now I'm running rooted stock ROM and cruising through FF7 in an emulator during my train commute
I am rooted running the ARHD 7.4 ROM with WiFi calling. It works great. Rooting allows me to use titanium backup for all my apps. Also making onandroid backups. And lots of little changes. Remove bloated apps, etc
