Does anyone else experience this bug? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

OK, here is the situation. I have a favorite contacts widget on one of my screens. And naturally, the contacts have picture associated with them. Here is the funny bug, if for whatever reason, the home screen needs to refresh, all the pictures on the widget get pixelated, and I have to go back and reset the pictures manually. I thought this was a bug in the ROM I had (Stock rooted), so i tried some other ROMs(Ava and now Myn), and same thing happens. This is not so much a problem as it is annoying.
Thanks in advanced and sorry if this question has already been asked and answered.

So? No one else has this problem then? :-(

Actually, that's the one I use too. Just pixelates all my contacts pictures upon any home refresh.

[Q] Problem with my Messages

I have searched everywhere for this answer, but I thought it would be worth a shot asking here.
I have been trying for a month now to get this problem fixed and its on my last nerve. When I send or receive a message from my girlfriend, it pops up as two names instead of one. (refer to the attachment) The contact named "David" pops in front of her name every time. I have tried reinstalling and deleting or even re adding both people's contact. Nothing has worked and would absolutely LOVE some input on this. It happens with a few of my other contacts, but this one is the one I use all the time so you can understand my torment.
I cant go into the thread to send a message, because everything i send goes to both people obviously (very annoying)
I appreciate any help....BTW I use handcent for messaging

Isn't it weird.... i didn't have one problem with this on 2.1. When i wiped everything... including cache... for SkyRaider the first time thats when it started. I have had to wipe many times for SkyRaider ROM updates and every time i do, i still get this problem in some form.
It wouldn't be ROM related would it... or is it a Froyo thing? grr
This pic shows it a little better.

did someone mess with your phone and save your girls number under david lee as well? Also, did you text both of them in the same message? Can you confirm that david lee is not receiving your texts as well?

No one has messed with my phone at all. I just checked again and they are both totally separate. David Lee does not have Chelsea's in his contact numbers and Chelsea does not have Davids.
Yes if i actually send a message through that thread it will go to both of them. With my brother's contact, its worse. When the thread pops up for his it's not just two people, its like 9. The only way to ensure that she only receives my message is to go to her contact and select the "send message" button with her cell number.
Did you originally send both of them the same message?

No, I never send either of them the same message and originally I probably sent a message to Chelsea and that's what it looks like everytime instead of her name by itself.

As you tell from this picture, it doesn't really fix it. I deleted his contact...un synced Facebook....uninstalled and reinstalled handcent to arrive at what I have in that picture. How in the Hell the number still shows up even after the contact is gone is ridiculous...

[Q] Adding contact favorites to Virtuous Doubleshot v1.0.1 G2 ROM

I love this ROM, but I keep getting stuck at Group texting Activation when trying to setup contact favorites. Progress gets stuck at 33%.
Anyone else having this issue?

I saw this very same issue (thought it was me). I stopped using it as some of my widgets aren't sizing correctly as well.
Anyone find a work around to this?

[Q] Which e-mail app shall we use?

Hi, Guys...
I have been using official gmail app but the problem I have is, the app doesn't resize the incoming emails which can fit to the screen... and you always have to scroll right-left / up-down to see whole content...
Is there any settings where this can be done (couldn't find)? Or shall I change my app? And if yes, which app would you recommend...
As an ex-iphone user, this is an annoying issue for myself...
Thanx in advance...
I think the stock email app (not gmail) works better, just add your gmail account.
EDIT: Never mind, I tried it myself and its as bad as gmail app..

Anyone facing problem with dialer and phone storage?

Sent from my HTC One V using xda app-developers app
Whenever I try to dial someone's number using htc stock dialer, I often receive a message saying "com.android.phone has stopped working. would you like to send report? " and sometimes it happens with people app too. I just did the latest system update but the problem still persists. My phone is unrooted and has stock htc rom. Please help me with the issue.

I have the same problem. My one v is on the latest update(2.09.720.1). This is the only complaint I have with my otherwise awesome phone. :crying:
Does anyone have simlar problems? Is there anything you have done to rectify it?
Yea i thought the problem occurs due to large phone storage(Facebook, Google, twitter ) I have. So i kept only Google and removed everything else, but even that didn't help. Have u tried anything for it?

Problem disappeared! But still I use exDialer

The dialer seems to work a lot better now. Thanks for that :laugh: . But the contacts storage app takes a lot of time to load and crashes frequently. Can you suggest anything for that?
In my contacts storage, everything except for phone is unchecked but I have still been facing this problem for 3 months now. So frustrated!

Facebook app crashing

Everything else on the phone works fine, but the Facebook app crashes multiple times a day.
I have to go to the home screen and then recent apps and swipe it away to get it working again. Sometimes even that doesn't work, and I have to go to the task manager and end the task before it'll work. Any ideas why?

its application's fault, not your note 2.... official facebook app has been known to crash very frequently
One of the more stable versions is 2.0, I use that but to be honest I in some ways prefer the website alternative. Bookmark the Facebook site in your browser, add a shortcut to this on your home screen and it's a somewhat better way to use Facebook. I was getting annoyed with it being so slow and running in the background so much. Each to their own though!

I don't know where this comes from because it works pretty much ok in my experience.
