Has anyone else been having issues with icons and widgets overlaying on top of itself. Every so often when I re-start my phone my icons and widgets create duplicates. Is there some kind of fix to this?
what rom do you have? ive been having that problem since myns rc2 and it does get quite annoying
Im using myn's rls3

I have a theory about this. I think its Titanium Backup. Although, since switching from Fresh to Myn's I haven't had the problem.
It is annoying though, and it also slows the **** out of your phone.
Just reboot

I have the same issue on a fully stock unrooted rom.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Yup, I think this can be caused by not wiping the data partition. I have had it happen before running titanium.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
actually rebooting is what causes it
the only kindof solution ive found so far is to save the scene once you have it set up and switch out and back when they duplicate
and i dont think its titanium as i always wipe my data thouroughly and never restore everything, just specifically one by one

All the other kernels are making me get a line in my screen when scrolling. The only one that didn't do that was stock#17, can someone help me fix my kernel problem or least direct me to stock 17. Thanks in advance, I appreciate it.

You do know rls5 is out right?
What did you wipe before you flashed it? I would highly recommend using Calikulin's format all zip
Flash this, and then reflash the ROM. This should help you
Make sure everything is up to date (PRI, PRL, Radio)
Then flash a #15 kernel. That will fix your problem. Netarchy has a couple of good ones out and MS79723 has a really good SBC one out as well.
RLS4 is packaged with an outdated kernel, which when everything is updated causes screen tearing which is what you're experiencing.
Update everything, update kernel and you're good to go.
As an alternative, RLS5 has an updated kernel if you don't wanna go 3rd party with the kernel flashing, so backing up with titanium backup or my backup (both have free versions in the market) and then doing a full wipe and flash will also fix your problem.
Hope this helps.
The only thing wrong with 5 is me updating the radios. I didn't wanna do the full wipe for optimal use. The screen tearing happened on 5 and 4. Any kernal besides stock.

So that format all gives me updated software or what?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
So I decided to just update my PRL and that worked. My phone is not lagging or tearing. I didn't think that would do the trick but it worked. Thanks guys.

i am having MAJOR problems with rls 5 though. i'll see if i can get them sorted out. if not, i'll post. i think caulkin's 1.8 extended data settings messed me up, bcuz now i can only get text messages while in a phone call, and i dont think i am getting 3g.
One reason why I just stuck with 4. My internet was slow AND I had that browser slowness 4 host file flashed..just went back to 4..

I am running Syndicate Rom Frozen 1.0.3 with Twilight Zone kernel. I was browsing Facebook when my phone froze and i had to pull the battery to reset it. After rebooting, every time i tried to open the default messaging app it kept FC'ing along with ChompSMS. I uninstalled chomp to try to fix it but nothing. I am wondering what the next step is. Do i Factory reset the phone? I am trying to avoid this cause I do not want to reroot, reconvert to ext4 etc...Thanks
It sounds like u got data corruption u might have to reflash the rom again

I am updating to Syndicate Rom 1.1.0 hopefully that will fix it. Thank you
So every time I flash I wipe data/cache/Dalvik/Battstats. I was using CWM2 for a while and when every ROM continued to slow down and lock up I tried upgrading to CWM3, narrowing my ROM choices but not solving the problem. Whenever I flash, my phone will return to it's snappy self for a varying amount of time before crapping out again. I've tried Sense, AOSP, Evo, and Z ROMs and all behave the same for no apparent reason. What am I doing wrong? My phone used to be lightning quick, I sampled many ROMs and kernels without incident, only experimented with OC briefly, and all of a sudden it's gotten painfully slow no matter what i do. Please help me make my Incredible, "incredible" again
Is it still slow on the Stock ROM? If you haven't tried that already, I would try that. It's possible something else may be wrong with the phone if you've tried many different ROMS and all do the same thing. Do you have all the same apps installed as well, or are they different for the most part?
try fixing permissions
Try wiping your SD card and when you sign in your gmail account don't let it restore all of your apps. Setcpu is also a good investment if you have not already purchased it

will i need to re-flash my ROM after doing this?
Nope, doesn't delete anything.

This seems to have fixed the problem, thank you so much.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Actually, on closer inspection, the permission fix only temporarily stopped the issue. I even switched to the nearly stock Nothing Special Peanut ROM and I still got a FC from Sense. Is my phone a dud?

How are you restoring apps? I would wipe everything and flash a fresh ROM. does it freeze up now? If not, my $$ is on a rogue app that doesn't like playing with your phone.

Hmm I just flashed OMFGB w/o restoring my apps. The only things I've installed are the Google Apps, Google Voice (which is my primary method of communication), XDA, and SetCPU. The fcs seem random, not tied to any particular action. They even happen when I'm not doing anything on the phone. Any ideas?
Thanks for the help everyone.

update: I think the problem stemmed from using the SetCPU widget with the refresh rate set to 5 seconds. Not sure if changing the setting makes a difference, but removing the widget from my home screen has solved all the issues insofar. We'll see if it takes this time.
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
setcpu is always a "use with caution" kind of app. you can get great results, but it's mostly educated trial and error with your rom/kernel combination.
Okay so I noticed that even with the Tiamat kernal my battery life hasn't been great. I always see above 60% android system usage. I recently did the "GPS FIX" but I never upgraded my pri or NV. I need some help, I may skipped a step.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I would update all of your radios. Also, I think in settings under privacy, unclick back-up. Also, have you considered turning down how often your phone syncs?
It also could be a rogue app stealing resources... Let's start with my first suggestion, radios are in my Sig.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Okay this is weird, I turned off background data and now no system use. Is that saying it's a rogue app?

How many days was it high android use?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Ever since I flashed the GPS fix but possibly after Google+ app. Either way its at 81% usage.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
It's still high as hell ATM. 77% consumption. I don't understand. Wish I could get some help.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
There is a fix for it you'll have to search for it I only saw it once
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Someone had a link for me in their sig but they changed it...and I searched to no avail. Sad cause I don't want to ditch cm7 for something so dumb. Just want my GPS to work without having my android system through the roof. Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo is on the other line. -.-
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I had the same problem. Here's the fixes I did before I finally just ditched CM7
I updated my radios (and everything else).
All my syncs were on 4 hour intervals (except weather = 1 hour)
lowered screen brightness
uninstalled facebook, g+ and gVoice (my 3 highest used apps).
rebooted about 6 times
held it wrong
prayed to the gods of android
flashed Synergy RC2
So if you were considering doing those, don't. They aren't the problem.
Ironically, my GPS has never had a problem on any aosp rom (and I've tried darn near all of them), but like you, even with the kernels my stuff just wouldn't work right. I think it has something to do with our phones just not liking the kernel. Give toastch's "godmode" kernel a try or flash back to stock to see if that helps.
Ok so switch kernals or just switch to synergy?

How do I find out which Android process is force closing? It happens every time I restart my phone. It doesn't happen too often but it happens at least once every time I restart. The notification does not say which process, it only says Android process. Sometimes my default keyboard, swiftkey x, is replaced by swype after force closing the Android process. Thanks in advance.
Edit: it actually says the application Android system force closes
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
That actually means "Android System" is force closing. I know useful right? I don't remember where to get the information that might help figure out why but typically a full wipe and a reflash will take care of it.

yea you may have deleted something thats acting up or maybe you installed something your phone is not happy with. I would try to do as the poster above said or run fix permissions in recovery or Rom Manager and see what happens
Are you on an EL13 build? What is your exact setup? If its EL, I may know why.

Yes I'm on calks 2.5, so I'm on el13. Also I don't mind reflashing and a wipe, but if there is an easier way, I would prefer to do that.

I do know that undervolting was causing a lot of people to have reboots including myself. I reduced it from 75 to 50. Also did you use Titanium Backup to restore data to your apps. That also causes some issues
I have neither manually undervolted my phone nor backed it up using titanium, so i dont think its from that

I was told that the Android System is calling a file that doesn't exist on EL13. Is it only when you power on phone? Strongsteve found it and fixed it on his ROM but I don't have the knowledge to locate it myself. Is 2.5 Calk's latest update? If he has a newer build, you may want to update. Maybe he found it and fixed it as well.

Since installing Calkulin's 2.6 and EL13, Google Maps has been force closing on me after reboots. I'll be watching this in case it's a related issue.
