Hah thanks for the laugh xD
Anyway, I should have worded that differently: "Have you flashed a ROM that helps with the multitasking issue".
Most of them do, but if you don't want to flash a ROM some people reported that if you change the setting within developer options to 'At most 4 processes' for the background process limit it helps alleviate this issue.
This is by far my biggest problem with this phone. From what I've heard, stock ICS doesn't have the same issue.
Yeah, it pisses me off when I scroll through a list and go out of the window, ONLY to have that damn list reload back to the first item.
There HAS to be a way to get rid of that permanently if stock ICS phones don't have this problem?
Yeah, the multitasking is the only issue I have with this phone. Reminds me of the fail WP7 has with multitasking :/
Yeah a lot of the issues with this phone can only be alleviated through rooting it and flashing a custom rom. As I stated in another thread with my opinions of this phone and the pros/cons, this phone requires the user to root it in order to have a pleasurable experience.

Which is really disappointing. We shouldn't have to root in order to get things like this to work properly. If HTC is going to place a button dedicated to a specific function on their phones, you'd think that function would actually work.

No one is arguing against it, we are merely providing solutions to the problem. Furthermore, if we want to nitpick the button isn't a 'multitasking' one, it simply brings up a recent apps list. That being said I do hope HTC fixes this. It seems to affect all the Sense 4.0 phones. I know the One X has this problem by simply looking at their forum and from what I tested the One S at T-Mobile while helping my parents get a new phone, it seems that the S also has the same problem.
Rooting and flashing roms hasn't fixed my multitasking issues..I think its a deeper sense issue..I've manually adjusted min free settings with no luck..so Im assuming that its Kernel related buried deep..its my only gripe with this otherwise perfect device..and some people actually like its killing of apps..although it doesn't seem to free up any extra ram ...edit - hasn't the issue been resolved with the att hox with an ota? I thought I saw that somewhere
Yep rooted and romed. I dont want to say which one because u don't think it matters. Non of it would bother me so much if my new phone wasn't slower than my old one. Kinda sucks to have full signal but can't load a Page, stick it in my pocket it becomes a hand warmer and the battery is dead next time I use it.

The worst is when I play Sega's Sonic Adventure app or open up stumble upon and every single time I go back to the home screen, sense has to reload. I've never experienced that with my Xoom.
Are the ROMs effective at fixing the multitasking issue? That, ps3 bluetooth, and otg support would be the only major reasons I'd root my phone (maybe titanium backup too for contingency). I'm not root shy, my OG EVO was rooted two weeks after I got it, but, in the long run, everything seems more consistent when running completely stock, and I can pretty much find an app for everything I need.
Also, do you guys think that if we send in enough complaints that HTC would get its act together for the jelly bean update?

Return it, get a Gnex on Verizon. Problem solved.
I'll also have to agree that rooting and. A custom rom still don't do much to alleviate the issue. Chrome still reloads every time I come back. It's baffling because we can blame it on sense, but sense has ALWAYS been bloated, but the evos before this didn't have such an issue.

I don't find sense 4 very bloated at all actually. When sense 4 was ported over to the Sensation, it didn't have this multitasking issue, which is leading me to believe that there will be a fix soon for it.

Well they did promised that every phone after the 3D will have a unlocked bootloader. That even means the hero 4G also.

i understand that but why would you have to replace the HBOOT if it came unlocked ?
I understand that HTC is trying to cheap malware and such away from the phone but most people who are going to get it are people downloading infected apps from the market I would think? Does having a locked bootloader protect that? I would also think encrypting everything would take more resources then not? I dont know much but thankfully my flashing withdraws will stop soon

My bad Cheesy. My previous post means nothing due to the fact that i dont even believe that it shipped s-off. if it did there would be no reason to check and make sure it deosnt say s-on or replacing the HBOOT for that matter. So your OP does make sense and rings a bell. I guess HTC went back on their word again, either that or they thought the CHA CHA wasnt really that important to unlock.
Well since my EVO 3D is going back on Tuesday and i am waiting on the SGS2 to come out i won't miss the playing around with root from HTC and the Dev's...I am sorry but i do not believe S-OFF was leaked and went on youtube they are not that big that they would have leaks.
So enjoy and hope you guys get the root soon from either one of the sources.

You don't believe it? There is video proof. And it wasn't a leak per se, one of the members just accidentally posted the video publicly. S-OFF is coming soon, probably within a week or so. Sooner than the GS2 is coming to Sprint. So if it is a matter of not wanting to wait...I'd reconsider.

Not flaming but very curious. What does your last two post have to do with the topic @ hand. Secondly, why would a group of developers who have been on the android scene and responsible for previous s-off exploits have to lie and manipulate the android community to gain brownie points. Seems out of character and a first time ever in developer history as far as I know.Maybe you should do a little research before making poor assumptions.

If I've said it once I've said it a million times. Samsung Android phones are garbage, the only savior was the Nexus S. Everything else was crap.
I've yet to see one with completely functional GPS, a radio that works, a build quality that doesn't seem like some dollar toy you buy from china, capacitive buttons that work properly, hardware that properly reads battery levels, ect ect ect. Jesus man, Samsung can't even get the font on their lock screen right, You see the top 1/2 of each letter of the month, and only 3 letters max will show up
That is just the basics. The real issues run so much deeper.

The SGS2 GSM has been doing very well.There is not going to be a lot of difference from gsm to cdma and again if all fails without spending a dime i can come back to the 3D if i wish and maybe by that time HTC OR THE DEV'S might stop playing around with S-OFF so i do not lose out i try out the photon for 45 days free sell it get the SGS2 try it out most likely keep it due to the phone being better but if not the can i can always switch back.
You realize you have one chance to do a 30 day I don't like my phone exchange?
Good luck with the SGS2, they said the same thing about the regular SGS and that phone was a pile.

As someone who has tried both brands multiple times in the distant past, recent past and very recently I am going to have to call bull****... True, any brand of anything has its pros and cons, but when comparing samsung and htc htc doesn't even come close to samsung in the problematic-issues category.... There are some issues that go back many generations of samsung smartphone that seem like they will never get resolved.

I have no clue why or who ever in Samsung development messed this up, but when you stream flash videos in full screen the notification does not auto hide. To me this is completely unacceptable as it ruins the possibility of "full screen" and it can actually damage the oled in these phones.
I think this fix should be a MUST for any developer currently making rooms for this phone. The only from currently that I know of that fixes it is Cyanogen.. but I do want a stable ICS and oh boy can't we all dream of a perfect aosp from... dreams of super fast clean friendly user experience...

AS said above, it looks like your are running ICS which is in beta and has not been officially released, you are complaining about an unfinished, unofficially released BETA rom.
You may need some time of reflection and a lot of reading to understand what you are doing......
Why be a dev if your goal is half ass roms?
You answer your question yourself why build a rom based on a half assed buggy beta release .
Put in a very simple way . Why waste time on a buggy beta build that may be very different come release day .
When ICS is released and if a dev thinks its worth fixing your problem i am sure they will .
jje
OK it sounds like no one understood , I will attempt to explain this better. This is NOT an ICS problem this problem is with EVERY rom including stock update strait from Kies. I went as far as contacting Samsung to get a fix, but as you can see in my profile I live in the US and the US Samsung will not help me with my UK phone. Why everything between us is so divided beats me but still the issue remains.
As I stated currently the only rom that fixes it is Cyanogen but just as JJ stated why use a buggy beta when the release will be much different/better. Also I am currently running ICS and have not encountered a single bug. Everything works perfect except for Samsung's stupid attempt to burn in my screen. I don't know about everyone else but I paid $580 for this phone and the last thing I want is a permanent" 3g" on my screen...

Then give us more information. Saying that streaming videos don't go full screen is no where near enough. What ROM, website, browser etc are you using because the last time I tried this (Not long after the S2 was released) it worked just fine. I tried a 720p video from megaupload and it went full screen just fine. Same with youtube/youtube app. Give more information, not attitude. Also, i'd wager than there is zero chance of your display burning in a 3G icon. Perhaps the full notification bar if you use MIUI/a white or light theme but I highly doubt the majority of people will experience any burn in, never mind such a small specific burn in.
Fair enough.. more info. I usually run completely stock and decided to play around with ics. A main site I stream with is twitch.TV (I am a big starcraft2 player and use the pro streams to get better) while I'm at work I watch for hours sometimes 7 hours straight. This WILL cause burn in.
When the problem occurs:
Watching ANY true flash video online(not YouTube app) while in full screen mode in any browser or Rom besides cyanogen.
If you don't believe me test it yourself. Go to twitch.TV pick a stream let the video load and click the full screen button. If you have a rom that the notification bar disappears let me know and you won't hear.me "moan" anymore.
Or maybe one of you super nice Brits can call UK Samsung and get an official fix. The number is 08702420303.

Download the diff, check for relevant changes (there's not many for fullscreen) and mod your own browser. Before you ask, I'm not going to hold your hand on this one, and am not willing to do it for you either (I don't use an ICS ROM).

Sure it will, you just have to be willing to put in some work. Namely, as I already said, downloading the diff, checking for relevant changes (I think there's only two changes relating to full screen) and getting them into your Browser.apk. You're probably going to need to do some reading.

I disagree I went from the Skyrocket and my Note was a lot slower and really laggy. I just swapped my Note for another one today and WOW this new one I got today is totally different. It is just as smooth and fast as my Skyrocket. If anybody is having performance issues you need to get it swapped out ASAP you will wish you had sooner.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
That's not really so funny.
I also came from the Skyrocket and initially thought the Note was fast. Than I came on Xda and alot of user were reporting on how slow their phones were. Than I started noticing lag every where. Now after not thinking about it for awhile I dont notice the lag anymore. So my point is that by others saying how bad it was I started seeing the same0, whether it was there or not.

I have the note, although it is the international version.
When I first got it, it had just a little lag here and there. I don't use touchwiz, I use go launcher. I've had 4 updates, now at 2.36, LB2 and this last update (got it Thursday night) made this thing smooth with ZERO lag. Even scrolling apps in the app drawer, which, would lag for maybe 1-2 flips, then smooth out, is smooth as
silk with zero lag.
I lost root some time back, so it isn't a root issue, but perhaps on the at&t version it has to do with the bloat apps that run all the time?

okay not bashing here so dont take this wrong but I'm just trying to wrap my head around this statement, so you pay $300+ for your device but dont expect stock ROM performance to be any good?...seriously? I dont understand why someone wouldn't of course, and if it did underperform (mine runs fine) as a consumer you have every right to take it back. I think alot of people lose sight of the fact that it's still a PHONE that can now do amazing things that you would not have had the luxury of just a few short years back. And granted, the awesome development we enjoy through these forums does improve quality and enjoyment value of these devices to the point of maybe spoiling us as advanced users, but remember the vast majority of consumers of these devices are typical users and to them (and me) the Note on GB/Touchwiz although not a perfect machine is still an amazing device right "out of the box".

It is an amazing device but the Carrier$ load it down with u$ele$$ and unnece$$ary $oftware to $queeze more money from you. In the process the Bloatware DOES in fact hinder the performance as they run even when you don't launch them yourself. By getting rid of the bloatware you are unleashing the true potential of this beast of a phone.
Think of it this way... If you bought say a Subaru WRX STi and when you went to go pick it up and it had a bunch of useless Car Dealer stickons and random crap that hindered the performance, you are saying you wouldn't be upset ?

Very true. I'd probably be using an iphone if it weren't for the DEVs here. Sad that we need them to unlock the full potential of our devices. We also get better support from them than the companies that make them. A great example of that is the HP Touchpad.
Support your local DEVs. I do so by adding to their beer/coffee funds. Coffee is better as it keeps them up longer to work on things

I don't want to abandon the custom ROMs and Android but this is getting too time consuming and causing problems. This is my final request for some solutions.

I don't quite understand. You don't have to flash, customize, or tinker with your phone at all. How much time you spend doing this is up to you. The phone works fine out of the box which is what you'll get with iPhone. If you want to get rid of bloat, then root it and remove the stuff you don't want.

Solution might be to find a ROM and stay with it, keep in mind flashing and or using custom ROMs are not for everyone, if you enjoy learning and bettering your knowledge and device well then it's the ticket for you, but if you find things are not working for you and you have hard time understanding, then maybe flashing custom ROMs are not your game...
There is nothing wrong with staying Stock and or Stock straight out of the box, as stated some have found that best for them.
Thank You.
Just go with iPhone we done anybody waffling back and forth. Goodbye!

I would never consider an iPhone as an option...
That being said, I have always had issues with Paranoid Android... either on my Note and on my Nexus S. I would suggest the ROM in my signature. I love it. Lots of features, stable and smooth. But in the end, everyone tries many ROMs before settling one one that works best for them. Happy flashing!
I'll give a bunny to anyone that helps.

I really don't want to get an iPhone again. I got rid of the 4S 64GB factory unlocked. It's like an ipod with some phone functionality, meaning I cant use it for much. I have Tmobile and this particular phone for various reasons and the root is very necessary.
I would prefer someone help. It's obvious something I'm flashing or how I am flashing it is borking the phones. Most likely the latter.
Wipe cache, wipe system, wipe Dalvik before flashing. Or follow the instructions on the ROM page's first few posts.
Bye crapple
@dubsteps what signature? There isn't one showing on your posts.

Drama queen. No one told you that you need to flash ROMs. Get the iPhone and please go "complain" on the iPhone forums. Roms are free and devs are taking their "own" time out of their personal lives to make em. If you can't be thankful, you don't deserve to be here.

No way I'd ever go to an iPhone again. I don't like being told what I am allowed to do with something I bought. Don't get me started on that though. IPhone is what you use until you know better, kinda like people used to use AOL until they learned more about the internet. We have several nice ROMs to pick from

I don't know. I've flashed a number of the ROMs on here. I just followed the directions as stated and haven't had any issues. Maybe it's cause you're on t-mobile.

I got the old one on stock rom stock recovery. Its the same, very unresponsive. It takes 5 minutes just to set the language on the att start screens. The other phone is balking at connections with odin, im trying to put in only a bootloader and its got a green bar but the big area says BOOT is not changing color yet, like its at the last step and it stopped. Its odin 1.85 since the newer ones seemed worse.
edit:
I got the old phone going, I think its fixed! I flashed the stock rom via odin thats on the forums. I used stock recovery to clear a couple caches. Then flashed cwm standard, from march or so, I used it to clear everything possible except sd card which was recently formatted as well but it has roms now. I flashed a nice safe collective mesosphere seraphim ics rom and its snappy and responsive. I think there is something wrong with some newer things, I dont know what, but I had no problems before I started with JB. fyi, bricking two phones is not normal for me.
The new phone wont talk to odin so it'll sit for a minute.
Going no where with this, so...

LOOOL I KNOW. but everytime i hear something new . and in your opinion, is flashing AOSP without 3D better, or Sense with 3D better?
I rooted my evo almost right out of the box, I saw no reason to have 3d, felt it was far better to go with an updated ROM than have HTC evil standard over bloated ROMs, love jb akop, cm10 or parandroid ROMs, hate sense, never going back to that crap again, kiss my azz HTC
(Don't ask me for help, as I don't care if your phone or tablet explodes, eh )
Flash its ok. Just sit down and have a beer before you have another stroke lol
3d in my opinion is just a gimmick I'm sure most of us belong in. 3d won't enhance the user experience either sense or aosp. Its a matter of preference to the end user and sense I'm on my vicoden I will calmly say this: unless HTC releases the source code for stock android evo 3d (which would require a petition from at least 2000 people) I'm sure that none of the developers will waste their time trying to build the code up from scratch. I love aosp don't mind at all losing 3d just to taste the new jelly bean 4.2 goodness. If you want 3d then you have a choice. Stick with sense 3.6 or try out jellybean.
Yeah, but I think that if I bought a phone that can manage the 3D, it would be awersome if newer versions of android (and sense lol) could manage this function..and if you don't need/like it, you can choose not to use it.
In my opinion htc has been really unfair to not relasing the sources for the camera, because they allow you to unlock the bootloader to install custm roms but almost no custom rom will fully work because of this...fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu D:
imo only agrabren has got the right knowledge to write the sources of the camera...he said it was working on it for jelly bean, but probably it won't happen in the immediate future because he is always busy with his work..and even if he could success in it, we don't know if only his rom will have this feautre or it would be possible to extend it to other (with or without sense) roms.
In addition, consider that htc has encrypted all the new jellybean RUU with sense 4+ available for the lastest one series, so this makes things more difficult.
All we can do is to cross our fingers..:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed: and hope for the best.
By now the only thing that you can try is this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679394 it's not AOSP but it's desensed, starting from the stock evo rom so you have all working (3D, hdmi out, wifi tether ecc ecc)

True true. The only thing that's an annoyance to me is the native WiFi tether has that bug where it kills the 3g when turned on. (Not sure if that got fixed. Havant been on a sense ROM in months) so the only thing is to download WiFi tether and use that instead.
Got a point about HTC though, they are sone evil little bastards. Throwing all kinds of obstacles our way just to prevent us from having freedom of customization for our phones. Their just mad because root kinda prevents people from wanting to buy their newer phones and can have the new software on our now dead evos. I could go on and on about this but I won't. Our community always manages to bypass their security encryptions. Maybe we will this time. Maybe we won't. I won't waste my money on slight hardware upgrades until the quad core phones become a common thing.

I still do. I keep up with updates on my favorite ROMs,kernels, and mods. While I'm over at the droid RAZR forums which honestly, is like the aftermath a party where everyone is passed out. I already said this is the best community out there. This wouldn't be what it is without the awesome devs and the gang of trolls to shake things up a bit.:cyclops:::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::
