Good morning,
first of all i present myself. My name is Gianni and write from Italy, so excuse me for my bad english.
I've a HTC EVO3D unrooted, bought in may 2012 updated to Ics 4.0.3, HTC SENSE 3.6, software number 3.28.401.1, kernel version 3.0.16-ge733189, browser version WebKit/534.30.
Sometimes i have some troubles:
1 - sometimes touch doesn't work, i can't touch any app on the screen, or any button (home, menu, find or backbottom), it's like freezed
2 - sometimes when i scroll screen to find gadgets it freezes and the display is uncontrollable
3 - sometimes during a calling i can't close, i must remove the battery
4 - sometimes using qwerty keyboard it doesn't work good (with and without swiftkey3).
I thought that, installing a lot of third part apps, i use something uncompatible:
- es file manager
- office suite pro
- photo resizer
- tomtom
- sygic
- realcalculator plus
- skype
- aptoide
- app backup and restore
- sms backup and restore
- swiftkey 3
- something else.
So, i resetted to farm settings 5/6 times.
Now i'm testing it installing 1 app a time, anyway i don't install Es file manager (maybe it causes problems).
It freezes again, but not like before.
I write to ask you if there are any troubleshooting known, and if there are solutions, or apps uncompatible.
I hope to receive an answer ASAP,
all the best
Gianni

Uhhhh. Your digitizer might be going bad, Go to developer options and check "show touches" you'll be able to see what's going on.
And all of those apps are fine and are not causing your problem.

Yours is still Locked and unrooted, so maybe running a RUU specific to your device might solve the problem. But before that try using your phone for few hours with the simcard removed and see if it still freezes. I cant say if thats what is causing it but one of the carriers tower near my house had some issues and it made all the phones using there service freeze and unresponsive to touch every now and then. When they use other sim card the phones were working fine.
R: [Q] troubleshooting in Evo3d unrooted - ICS
I don't think that is caused by simcard. I try. Anyway it freeze Aldo during a calling so i can't close.
The apps i've now:
App backup and restore, colornote, convertpad, Skype, file manager, dea developer.
This morning it freezed two times during two calls.
Any advice?

It freezing is just your screen being unresponsive No app out there (for the most part) are gonna break your phone, At the worst they'll drain battery. So listing your apps isn't helping, Though it is nice to be thurough.
I also suggest find a RUU for you specific phone and hboot and resetting all of your software, if that doesn't help you'll have to buy a new screen or take it into a repair store;

OK - I'm starting to think I'm the only person that has this issue as I haven't seen it reported..
Sometimes, my Photon won't launch apps. Apps that are already running continue to run and I can switch back and forth between them, but trying to start a new app, it just doesn't start! Fix has been to either reboot, or have it go to sleep and wake it up 15 minutes later and try again. I've had it do this while a system task manager was running, so could see that there was plenty of free memory (RAM) available..
This includes launching apps from apps that are already running. i.e. - sometimes the browser doesn't launch from a search query. (mostly though pressing an icon on the STOCK launcher doesn't launch it..)
Anyone else see this?
-mark
Yeah mine seems to do it every once in a while too. I noticed that if you open the task manager and kill the market then whatever app your trying to open will end up opening up right after the market closes.

One of the reasons, I took mine back to the Sprint Store. When they fix it, I may buy it again... otherwise, my OG Evo is perfectly fine.
I can't believe more people aren't experiencing this. I do have LauncherPro installed but I don't think that's the reason. I can recreate this all the time. After installing an app through Market, I randomly can't open apps from the home screen.
Nothing happens unless I force close the Marketplace.
Any input on this?

The new market is absolute crap in my opinion, way to many FC's with it and it just doesn't do what it needs to. If I can go faster than it can download, select, etc then it needs to be reworked, also I get a lot of packet errors, have to download apps two or three times just to get it to install.. Great idea but it needs a patch bad!
I wouldn't see why this is a reason to take the Photon back and go back to an Evo, I mean the Evo is a cool phone but the hardware on it is sub par compared to this phone. I used to have one, and it doesn't even hold a candle. But to each their own.

I have only had this happen a few times I was told that it is associated with the battery manager settings if you don't use performance it can cause issues that was what was causing the muted audio issues the battery management settings put it on performance and I don't see the issue.

I just noticed my battery mode was set to Nighttime Saver. Hadn't even looked at this option. I went ahead and changed it to Performance Mode and will see if it happens again.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Mine does it too. After the update that just came out it seems to do it less now.
Just started having this issue today. App launches and others won't launch unless you kill the "hanging" app or the market.
I have no idea if this is a bug in blur or some kind of hardware defect (memory). It seems to be a software issue.
Problem persists after complete hard reset and app cache clear.
I'm using an 8 GB Samsung class 2 microSD card (from old Evo 4G). It has been reformatted.
Other symptoms: Back button and select widgets become unresponsive.
App count at time problem started: 72
yeah i have the same issues. not sure how to fix it. Usually a reboot does it but man i hate to reboot it all the time.
Could you list any changes, apps, app counts, microSD card, or settings your Photon has?
Mine is working smoothly after redoing my Photon for the 2nd time, reformating the microSD card via the phone, keeping my App count below 70, setting the Battery mode to Performance, and not installing Bump or Sensorly.
Still trying to narrow down the issue but it's looking like it's software related.
still happening
Is this problem still happening to anyone's phone?? It's starting to get really annoying, I tried a hard reset twice on two different photons and the problem's still occurring.
I fixed this by installing the automemory manager. Details in my thread called lag be gone.

I have not used it a few days and now it gets a more flashy gui. Then it kept crashing. I have to "Uninstall Updates" to go to the old gui and it seems to work. Manage Applications still show the same version number.
However, that's not the end of story. A few minutes later, it gets back to the new version and it keeps crashing again.
Does anyone have similar problem?
Thanks!
Go to device settings and set your language to english (even if its already that). This will fix it. Did for me anyway.

I finally rebooted for the first time since receiving the device 7 days ago. I realized that would probably take care of some of the issues.
Hey Gutta624,
I'm having force close issues with my Sony Tablet S too. I wasn't getting any when I first got the tablet but ever since the 3.2.1 update I have been. I can't even access the Google Accounts app and sync the device to my google account.
I've started a thread called "Constant force closes since 3.2.1" on the androidtablets forum. I'd post a link but the best I can do is androidtablets (dot) net because this is my first post here at xda-developers.
I plan to take my device to the nearest service center this week so I'll let you know how that goes.

Do you sync your brower bookmarks with your google account? I have the same issues when activating the sync.
I have to say, this is a worrying thing with this Tablet. My other half has an ipad 2, and although it doesn't have flash, the rest of it does work as it should. Whereas the Sony seems to have all these niggly issues with it.
So now I have to weigh up the options - no flash but reliable os, or flash support but seemingly endless problems.
I've just got a nagging doubt about the Sony that if I get one I'm going to end up regretting it and wishing I'd just got a proper ipad instead.
Anyone have a problem free, happy Sony tablet experience?
Love the device... the software is miserable.
1. Social App and the Browser sometimes force close.
2. Zinio is frequently unresponsive and has to be force closed - happens regularly now that I have a few magazines in my library.
3. Stock browser is awefully laggy. This in comparison with my HTC Desire Z running Gingerbread. Try [www techradar com]. Very very slow and generally unresponsive. This is but one example. the lastest has been a laggy Sony app selection website. Oh... Opera often closes with no warning or error.
4. Dammit... Stanard Keyboard just force closed typing this.
5. The text selection is terribly buggy. Often can't select the right spot... the green arrows jump around erractically making the whole experience frustrating. Happens right here on XDA.
6. Predicition isn't't as good as the HTC devices... and they keyboard is not as responsive as the demo unit... either because of a software upgrade or the sony screen protector. Find that keys aren't't registering... most evident on the space bar.
The above isn't't at all acceptable and I'm hoping asoftware upgrade fixes it.
7. We were sold this device (in singapore) as a playsation certified device... and there isn't a store available... bad sony!!!
8. swapping between devices in the remote control app is too slow.
9. The DNLA app is frustrating.... slowt ransfers over wireless network... doesn't handle 90% of the video I have (from HTC and Panasonic) devices. Also clumsy interface... Doesn't even remember prior folder selections.
10. Battery drainage on standby is really mindboggling. Lose about 16% per day. I get about 4 maybe 5 at best out of the device. charging is awefully slow compared to other devices. Typically 3 to 4 hrs to recharge fully (from 14%).
I've taken a lot of time andcare diagnosing andcan't attribute the issues to anything otherthan software.... and this line was me typing at full speed with keyboard lag.
Would appreciate feedback.
Oh... how do I stop the autoreplace from forcing a replacement? I know you can select it but that would save it to the dictionary which I don't want. On the HTCs you simply click the empty space following the word and it's ignored.

I am also from Singapore..download the account manager apk and sign up..u will be able to download free PS games...

Just curious how many people are having issues with stock Google apps and the stock browser after the ota update. The Gmail and maps will get stuck on a white screen as does the stock browser and the play store will just lock up on whatever screen it was currently on. Google wallet will freeze during the unlocking your device notice. These are the only ones I have found so far but I had none of these issues before the ota update. A phone restart will fix it for a period of time but I'm currently having to restart my phone 2 times a day to get the apps to work properly again.
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
I also forgot to add that during the restart after the screen turns off you can will change the ring volume up and down and hear it change for 2-3 seconds before the phone actually does restart. I noticed this when I had my Bluetooth headset still connected and it was not telling me it was disconnected for at least 4-5 seconds after the screen turned off unlike before the update when it was no more than a second.

Mine does this as well, the only "fix" I have found for it is rebooting the phone. Then it works for a few days until it randomly decides to freeze again.

Also been having the same problem since updating, most noticable with the browser just being a white screen. Tried wiping cache & dalvik cache again, doesn't seem to help. Stock ROM with S-OFF. Surprised I haven't seen more mentions of this problem, but perhaps it's not widespread?
Well as I've learned over my time at xda updates are always catch 22's. That's why I choose to wait and read users feedback on how the latest ota is functioning. However none if this is revelant to your issues just figured I'd post it for future reference. Also have you guys tried a full wipe of your current rom? After you make a backup of your data of course to see if that will help ??

Yeah...I was having the same problem after the ota, but after a couple of reboots things started to work right.
Im having this too, is getting very annoying. Sometimes i just want to use the phone quickly for something and have to re-start the phone... I feel like breaking it against the floor.

I wound up here after searching for this error, which just started with me yesterday with the browser (stock). It just displays a white screen when I try to use it.
I've had the latest update (flashed with 1.22.651.3 odexed ROM from xHausx and firmware from Captain Throwback) about a week now and this just started happening yesterday.
Yesterday I somehow got it to work again by clearing the Internet cache and then I performed a search from the Google search bar and all was well. I was thinking at the time that it was stuck on a particular page and that this got around it. But that fix isn't working for me today, so I'm going to try to clear dalvik/cache from twrp as recommended here and see where that gets me.
It's good to know I'm not the only one though... I wonder if there's anything else more specific we all have in common since we seem to be a fairly small subset. Maybe we all flashed the Odexed update for example?
EDITED TO ADD: Appears to affect Gmail too. And possibly several other Google apps as mentioned here and in other threads. Since there was a Gmail update I did yesterday, I'm going to try to uninstall that as mentioned in this other thread I found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1810829

NOT helpful at all since it affects not only the stock browser but other Google apps as well.
Refer back to my original post which I updated with additional information.
I've found if I reboot and never use the stock browser I don't have the white screen problem. I set maxthon as the default and act like the stock browser doesn't exist.

I reverted back to the previous version of Gmail yesterday hoping that would fix the problem but it still happened. This morning when I clicked an email notification from my status bar, Gmail did the white screen thing and needed to be shut down manually. Just to verify that this and the browser incident were related, I tried to launch the stock browser and it too was white screen.
So those of you suggesting to install an alternate browser to get around this issue need to understand that this is a lot more widespread than the browser alone. For me, both my Gmail and Google Offers were white screens this morning upon trying to launch them so it definitely appears to affect all Google apps.
Yeah this happens to me as well. Its really bad now. Nothing fixes. It does it on all the roms with newer OTA for me. Only two roms will work for me without this problem. I have tried everything. Wiped everything, Reflashed, Checked my sd card, factory reset, you name it. It even does it on restored roms that didn't have the problem before. I don't know what to do....
A developer told me to try and manual flash boot.img through fastboot but I'm not even sure how to do that. Need to read up on it.
I have had the issue to wear when I am trying to open the browser app, it will actually freeze the entire phone until I hit the home button repeatedly in play store will not load anything until I fully restart the phone I've tried fixing for missions do a nandroid restore nothing seems to work

Hello everyone, I got the Inc4G on launch day. It's rooted, but still running everything as stock. One of the problems I've been having is that from time to time, some of my app assocations (default apps) will reset -- not ask me what I want as default (like when you install a new app or an update), but it just resets. It's happened with a few, but the most common is the "Web URLS" (which should probably be "Web URLs," now that I look at it) reseting from my choice, Dolphin Browser Mini, to the default Android browser.
Has anyone else seen this and/or have any ideas as to how to fix it?

I haven't noticed any of my presets change. I put everything to my SD card, and it stays. I don't use Dolphin, so it could be specific to that browser.
I have not seen this, either. However, my ringtones always seem to change after connecting to PC (as storage). Looking forward to root so I can put all of my custom ringtones in the system area.

Thanks guys! It hasn't happened recently, so I'm not sure what caused it. If it does start happening again, I got the idea from a different thread to disable (not uninstall or remove) the stock browser, so maybe then it won't be able to change it back to anything?
Unfortunately you cannot disable the stock browser without root.
I've had my app associations reset once already. It also happened on my old EVO 4G LTE (Sprint).
