sorry if someone else has posted this
i have recently been getting this message
"the application htc sense (process com.htc.cs) has stopped unexpectedly"
i have seen plenty of posts around the net relating to com.htc.launcher but few mentioning .cs.
I have a desire HD running 2.2.1 software 1.72.405.3
this is happening everytime i unlock the phone and when i run alot of apps.
i have found that if i disable htc sense sync then it doesnt happen.
i have uninstalled all apps that have been installed recently but still no fix.
i like htc sence and would prefer to keep sync active, so if anybody could help i would very much appreciate it.
The general feeling on here is that you should disable HTC Sense as:
A/ It's heavy on the CPU and consumes a lot of battery.
B/ The website side of things is still beta and mostly broken anyway.
Sorry that's not what you want to hear, but I think that's what most people will tell you I'm afraid.
Why do you want to keep it? Maybe there's an alternative app(s) that can do the same thing for you.

if its the only way i suppose i will have to keep it disabled. is there any part of the website i could still use. i like the phone location feature and ring lost phone feature.
if i kept it disabled is there a way to keep them features.

Thanks for the reply

Hopefully with the release of all the new phones from HTC it will be working sooner rather than later! Only HTC know when though. You could email and ask. If anything it will show them they need to hurry up as people want to use it properly.
As for keeping phone location and ring features, they're not something I use personally so I don't have any specific recommendations but a good place to start would be here:

I'm actually going to look into them myself now too!
ok then i like the look of waveSecure but any idea on a way of making my phone ring at full volume even if its on silent. ive used this feature a couple of times and i find it very handy.
thank you
Sorry mate, no idea! Best bet is to check out the app descriptions and test them out.

I know this is an old thread but if you're still looking you can use 'wheres my droid' one of the first apps I ever downloaded. You just text your phone with a certain message and it will ring loud as you wish. Also if your gps receiver is on you can even gets its gps co-ordinates
Guys have a look at "lockout mobile security" you can track your phone, rings etc.

There is no denying that ICS is a major step forward for android phones (and it is awesome!) but what feature etc. do you feel should be included in the next major update?
One thing I would like is a quick access button to toggle the auto-rotate screen on and off! I use my phone a lot in bed and it`s imposable to use the phone with auto-rotate on (as with many smartphones I have tried).

Another is the ability to stop, pause, fast forward music from the lock screen.

You are right, after a restart is now there on the top... interesting!
download a widget app like Widgetsoid. You can make yourself an auto-rotate on/off widget
USB host OTG (promised but not delivered).
Syncing of the default browser with Chromium or Chrome.
I'd like to see some Siri competition.
Onboard external storage with ssd speeds. Even tighter and consistent integration with hardware and software. Methinks there is still going to be a clusterfuck of hardware and software still to come. Oem overlays should be optional and/or pick and choose what you like from their launcher. Still boggles my mind people buy a samsung or motorola phone and want sense on their rom. No sense if you ask me.

PS: Didn't mean to thank you - wrong button, but oh well!
I want the stock Gallery App to be as smooth and as quick just like the rest of the OS. How come when you flick through photos and do pinch to zoom it's still sluggish just like on Android 2.2? Can't it be fast like the Browser?
Cannot think of much anything major yet, but here some minor ones:
The Google search bar is really unnecessary.
A disable option for the shutter sound would be nice but I guess they don't have it for legal reasons.
Maybe a pre-loaded plain black wall paper.
I would like to see integration with google talk throughout the device. I woild love for it to be like bbm/imessanger. I use it a lot and feel like it has great potential.

Will never happen.
BBM and iMessage work because the only devices that can communicate via those methods are the mobile phones themselves.
Google Talk works with computers too. Meaning that there is a large margin for disjointed conversations where part of the conversation is completely lost and unable to be referenced without getting the other person to repeat themselves.

It better be silent on vibrate! Would be great if on vibrate the flash didn't go off either lol
Id like to see the ability to copy and paste pics, rather than having to save them and then send them

I'd be surprised if they took that out - where when the phone is in silent/vibrate there is no shutter sound. That's how it's always been on my OG Droid, especially back when it was stock.

Or simply have it do exactly what it does now, and sync conversations across devices? All that needs to be done is have Android device detection, like iMessaging, so that sms conversations automatically switch to Talk (or a rebranded version of Talk).
Regarding shutter sound: Can't we just rename/delete the soundfile, so it cannot be played? What's the filename and where do I find it?

I don't quite understand. Why is it that when you bring computers into this equation, part of the conversation is liable to being lost?

There is an app called Smart Rotator which I use to only allow certain apps (ie Gallery) to autorotate. Very handy.
i wonder how ICS's keyboard is like.. Particularly, the horizontal keyboard. For some reason, in many of the text fields when using (practically) any type of keyboard, default, swiftkey, (and i don't remember the names of the other ones that i've tried in the past), the horizontal keyboard does not show the background at all. It makes a big text field of the field that you are typing and the touch keyboard takes up the rest with the "next" or "done" at the top right.
It's extremely un-user friendly. I want the apple style keyboard where regardless which orientation you are in, you can still see half of the keyboard, AND add a row to show all of the corrections/suggestions.
Hope that's in ICS, if not, please make it happen in the next update!
Cant front, autocorrection on the stock keyboard sucks majorly. Is there an option to turn up the level of auto correction or do you guys know of a better keyboard? Im thinking of installing the LatinIME gingerbread keyboard. Also, i cant seem to find the option to turn off haptic feedback on tge stock keyboard.
What do you guys reccomend?
settings > language and input > hit "default Engilsh (US) - Android Keyboard)" > hit "Configure input methods" > hit the "settings icon" next to "android keyboard.
In here, there are lots of options. Vibrate on keypress, sound on keypress, etc. If you click on "Auto Correction" it has different settings. By default it is on "modest". There is "aggressive" and "very aggressive". There is also advanced settings at the bottom.
i am not sure how you type, but i have no issue with the auto correction of the stock keyboard.
in fact, i am well impressed with it as well. as there is some sort of blind type DNA in the stock keyboard, that is for sure.
I've had no problems with it so far and I'm a novice when it comes to typing on an Android phone (Even though I've been using them for 5 years) auto correct is doing its jobs worth for me.
my only issue is that I keep hitting the "b" button instead of a space because of the larger screen... and 80% of the time it fixes that automatically.
The ICS keyboard is very good IMO. The only alternative I would recommend is SwiftKeyX but I didn't like it. It was too aggressive and screwed me up more then my typing.
Seriously, are you typing without looking at the screen? I've misspelled some words pretty bad and auto correct hasn't gotten it wrong once yet for me. Not sure what you're doing...

Sometimes lol, but no seriously, i like auto capitalization of "i" and auto punctuation sometimes. I like the aesthetics of the keyboard but simple stuff like correctjng these coomon words that im tryjnh to type here and tge keyboard doesny aytocorrect. I think i type pretty fast in landscape so id like for mg simple mistakes to be corrected so im not slowed down much. I also have pretty decent sized hands so maybe that plays in as well.
Okay, i just turned off the haptic feedback and turned up autocorrection to aggressive. Howevrr, i jusg notice that there was an optkon to show suggested word corrections. I made sure it was on. However, as i tgpe no suggestions appear like tgey did on the gingerbread keyboard. Also, you can, see my mispelled words. None autocorrections were made on "aggressive" setting. Do yiu guys get auto correction suggestion popups?
I'm having same issues, a lot of words end up garbled nonsense as well. Must mean I really suck at typing on that thing but I am definitely quite a bit slower than on real keyboards like palm pre and G1.
Tgiz sentence is tyoed with autocorrection on very aggresive. As you can see i am sgill making manh mistakes and none are beinh corrected. Not one time has a suggestion popped uo and corrected my mistakes. Tge is not corrcted to "the" as yiu can still see! Am i foing somethijg wrong?
It seems so as I typed a lot of mistakes on the default keyboard with this message and they all corrected

Is your autocorrect just not working at all??
Stock keyboard would be a lot better if it was bigger. Like compare to the wp7 KB on the htc titan and androids is pathetically small. I think I'm going to take a stab at making a wp7esk KB for android...yea all current options are that bad IMO. Swype is to small, thumb KB is right size but is to slow. Might be able to go straight off of ics source...

Nope, not in the browsers. In messaginh and other apps, just not the browsers. On androidfroums they say its a known issue. So hopefully google fixes it in the next update.

auto correct does not work at all places.
you can define certain type of field it is to disable auto correct.
for example, when you type in password field, auto correction is disabled by default.
in browser, its set to the mode where there is no auto correction.
Swiftkey is much better keyboard but the only problem I have is the voice input with swiftkey isnt native. They have their own processing engine that returns 3 options. The google one types as you speak.
I had issues with hitting letters instead of space and it got too annoying. SwiftKey auto predict and customization is so much better.
I tried SwiftKey X as an alternative, but thought it was trying to be a tad too smart for its own good *shrugs
I've always used Better Keyboard leading up to getting my GN, however have not felt the need to upgrade from the stock ICS keyboard as yet, its doing an A+ job imo.
Looking at your passages, it looks as though auto correct isn't even turned on lol,
I can see the mistakes you're making and i make the same mistakes in my texts, emails and tweets, however ICS keyboard corrects all for me just fine
Used to use only swift key, but once I got my nexus, I stuck with the ics keyboard and just put it to aggressive and I'm liking it much better, although it was great for a stock one, aggressive is MUCH better

I've used just about every browser but have been pretty happy with the stock Android browser since ICS until now.
I've noticed since I've upgraded to JB official version via ota that just touching the screen and scrolling starts zooming. This doesn't always happen and is hard to intentionally replicate because it seems to happen more on some sites than others but it is becoming increasingly annoying.
I like just beinc able to double tap to zoom but now it seems to zoom at random with just one press.
The other small improvements to the factory browser are pretty nice but I'm not sure what's going on here.
I Googled this issue and even tried to look up specific JB changes pertaining to the stock Android browser but haven't seen anything about single touch zoom or rather random zoom.
Any thoughts (besides just download xyz browser)?

Your touching the left or right side of the screen, slide up is zoom in, slide down is zoom out....was trippin me out to until I figured out where to touch. Allows for one finger zoom and works in dolphin as well, prolly other browsers but haven't tested any yet.

Excellent that seems to be correct. Thank you. It was driving me crazy.

Does anyone know how to disable this? I HATE IT!
^ this..
Bump. I hate this as well. It's redundant when we already have a gesture for zooming: pinching. And we can't afford to waste any more screen real estate on our phones.
Ditto
hope there's an option soon to disable. hate going to stock email app, opening an email, wanting to scroll through fast to read but instead zoom that thing large enough for my great grandmother to read. And it always seems easier for me to zoom in rather than zoom out. hahaha
Too annoying!
Hard to believe there is no option to disable this obnoxious annoyance. I'm fairly new to Android but if this was my old winmo I'd scour the registry and surely locate an entry to tweak.
Is there somewhere similar on the Android filesystem or through the terminal I could begin to look for a tweak?

I think I read in the MOAR thread that it was disabled in MA6.
Android is hard-coded. Samsung are morons.

What I am finding is the Android environment is pretty much all hard-coded. So unless the developer have you a setting where you could flip a switch, you're stuck with it, or you are downloading customs from here.
I actually like the slide zoom feature although as others have stated, at first I thought there was a bug that was causing it to zoom on its own. l suspect, like you I am used to using the slider in Windows at the right edge to scroll down the page of email.
Anyway, I have since gotten used to it and now am not going to perform the update to MA6/MB1 because I depend on it for one handed email.
What is most frustrating is to know they know it is a hard-coded environment and they could have just as easily added a switch to disable the feature (which by the way is undocumented - and Samsung chat support will tell you doesn't exist) rather than to simply disable. it.

Ah, so they did disable it. I was going nuts trying to figure out why it no longer worked. I was actually starting to like it too- it was pretty handy for one-handed browsing. They should've just kept it as a settings option.
So I'm not sure how to go about describing this issue, so I'll just take a stab at it by saying that the android keyboard will not ever autocorrect "youre" to "you're". Instead it would rather correct it to "your". Yes this bothers me a lot because now I have to manually spell out that word whenever I use it. Is there some setting in the android keyboard that I'm missing that makes it understand the difference between your and you're? Some default setting perhaps? I've already cleared out my personal dictionaries for this as well as attempted to add "youre" manually to the personal dictionaries but go figure, the phone won't let that happen. The other reason I'm using the android keyboard is because ever since jellybean came out, the default lg keyboard in the phone seems to have become very slow. And by that I mean I can type faster than the key pop ups have time to pop up. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
Since you've done the only things I could think about, I'm sorry I can't be more helpful. My only recommendation would be trying a different keyboard, I've used Swiftkey for years and really enjoy it! You can try a free trial (1month). Otherwise just try some other free ones?
