What does this limit, apps running in the background?
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
Yes it limits the apps in background, so it "multi tasks" even worse.
More importantly, it doesn't solve the problem. Didn't help me at all. Some others report it may help at first, but it comes back.
well I set it back to standard and I still haven't seen that issue yet anymore.

It's actually Sense reloading when you exit from an app. Instead of going right to the home Page, you get a little rotating circle for up to 20 seconds. It's been a problem with Sense for a while on a number of different platforms with different updates. Been reported on both the LTE and the One X.

Really if you use almost any alternative launcher it well be better, Rosie is slow and bloated. Still amazed how little free ram this phone has on boot, thought sense 4 was supposed to be lighter...

Its just cuz of what HTC set the OOM values to, and apparently didn't set Rosie to be locked in memory. Can be modified with root. But I, personally, set Nova as the default launcher.

You should try ram manager app by juwe if your rooted. Works great completely fixes the multi task issue. I paid for it but i think theres a free one with less options. It works like v6 supercharger script, has a nice widget with available ram batt and temp. Give it a go, i always have between 150 and 250 md of available ram and apps don't get killed.

This was happening to me too. I accidentally put my phone into safe mode. I did a Google search and was able to get out of safe mode by turning off the phone and restarting holding the volume up. The phone doesn't seem to have the problem anymore. I also noticed that some of my widgets(tether and bookmarks) were gone, which might have been the problem in the first place. I hope this helps somehow.

My wife and I both have Rezounds. I went to show her the Usage Monitor so she could track her minutes, and its not in her App Drawer. Titanium Backup shows it as installed though. I've tried to freeze and defrost it in an effort to make it come back, but it didn't work. Any suggestions?
Look at settings - power - battery usage.

Appreciate the reply, but I think you misunderstood. The Rezound comes with an app that lets you track your minutes/text/data usage so you don't go over your monthly allowance. I'm not looking to track battery usage.
Go to your widgets its not an app.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
No, what the op is referring to is an app, not a widget.
Op try clearing cache and restarting. If that doesn't work...try a different launcher and see if that gets the app to show up in the app drawer. If that doesn't work, I'd look at getting adb running and shell in to the system to see if u can see the app listed in /system/app, if so copy it to the sdcard and try installing it on the phone from there.
Otherwise, worst case scenario, a restore.

I had this issue on my incredible 2 running sense 3.5 roms. If you have Verizon my mobile app installed it overwrites or hides the usage monitor app.
If you uninstall Verizon my mobile and restart the rezound usage monitor will show up.
I just tried it and it worked. The one Dev I mentioned it to back on the inc2 hypothesized that the apks are similar and thus causes the stock usage app to disappear.

There's loads of threads on this. Change dalvik cache size or just use Nova launcher. IMO it's better.

Use Nova as the poster above said or go to android.mimic.ca and upload your services.jar and it'll change the oom priorities so the launcher isn't killed.

You could try checkrom's latest release, they have tweaked tw to reduce redraws, I haven't noticed the problem since I flashed it.

Any reason why you recommend nova as to apex. I read they are so similar. I wanna know the best so I can pay for the full one

Still does it whether on custom roms or whether you apply any and all the tweaks on the forum, it also happens with all the launchers.
Serious problem that needs to be addressed.
You will also notice multitasking is a complete no no as all the other apps reload too.
More ram is needed or many many less running apps.
Go launcher doesn't seem to redraw if you can stand such an old launcher.
Peace.

Couldn't disagree more, I don't get any redraws using checkrom. And when it comes to go launcher, it's probably the most bloated and clunky browser there is albeit highly customizable. Nova and Apex are probably just a good as each other. Touchwiz seems to use less resources than other launchers but it is lacking in features.

I don't think so.
The only options would be to flash newer firmware manually with Odin (may our may not help) or use market launcher such as nova or apex. They have option in settings to keep launcher in memory. It can help, but not always prevent launcher getting killed off.

Hey everyone! I know some people have done this and said it helped but I'm sure there's a bunch who have never heard of this so figured I'd make a thread. What I'm going to explain is how to change the min free values and make the multitasking slightly less aggressive.
1.download system tuner (you can do this in the free version if you haven't gotten the pro version but pro is definafely worth the cost)
2.open up system tuner, grant superuser, and click "tweaks"
3.now it should bring you to a screen with 6 slider bars if you will and in the bottom it says presets.
4.click presets and then select very light.
5.(optional) if you want this to stay between reboots click "boot settings" at the bottom and then select "re-apply memory limits" and select "on boot completed. (I think this is only in pro, someone with free report back )
6. Enjoy a slightly less aggressive task manager.
Note: this will not completely fix the issue but it does help a bit. In the task manager app that comes on our phone my phones free memory would never dip below 110mb give or take and now it will go down as far as 65mb(from what I've seen) before it starts to close things. So don't flame if it doesn't completely fix the issue because this isn't going to do it, but its a start haha

Try the Holo Launcher 4 posted here on XDA. It uses less memory than Rosie and can multitask better. Doesn't completely fix it though. That's going to take AOSP.

Any idea how to figure out why my notification shows the rotating sync icon forever even though nothing is downloading and nothing in task manager looks like a culprit?
I'm on meanrom 4.2 s-off & rooted and I used titanium to delete a bunch of stuff like everything to do with weather, wiper, twitter, sense social, flikr.
I'm guessing there's a mismatch somewhere where something I did not delete is expecting something from something I did delete, and it's never going to happen?
I've rebooted and it just comes back and it stays permanent, as in 12 hours so far since last boot. With perfectly good net connection both on 3g and wifi the whole time.

There was an item in titanium called something like htc social manager that couldnt uninstall because it said can't find apk, but it was able to freeze it, whatever that means. I also uninstalled htc facebook for sense but left the market facebook app installed which I don't remember if I did that last time.

The only shock to me is that the gap between the two is so small given GEL is coming from a much improved system in terms of system resource usage. I can only hope that once it is integrated with KitKat itself it is somehow lighter.

The Google launcher is mostly just placeholders for search. Its bare bones. All pure stock android is always basic. Everybody wants it and says they want the stock experience and then a couple of weeks go by and they are running a 3rd party launcher cause stock has no options. Lg made a launcher with options and therefore uses more resources.
I use nova launcher and I get 1GB to 1.2GB of free ram after I cleared taskmanager. BTW I also disabled a some apps.
