When I used to select ringtones I had an option between HTC app or a ringtone app. I accidentally hit the wrong one with remember this choice checked. How can I change that so it asks me again?
goto settings, hit applications, manage applications, all, scroll down to com.htc, press clear defaults the press force stop it should be reset next time you chose a ringtone it will give you the choice of you htc app or ringtone app
Thank You, That worked
No problem glade it did

I think it happened after buying the Launcher Pro Plus home screen replacement. I have since uninstalled it but depending on the app that I'm in, when I hit the soft "home" button on the phone, the system asks me which home screen application I want to use. Sense is set as the default in the application settings so I have no clue why this happens. Anyone experience this?
If sense is set as the default and launcher pro is uninstalled it should stop prompting you to choose a default have you tried a restart or a battery pull?

When that happens again and you get the prompt check the box you want it to default to and that should set it. Make sure the check box is highlighted.

I'm sure I've pulled the battery since then but I'll try again. And yes I do put a check mark in the default box when I am prompted. Funny thing is it only happens from some applications and while I'm in certain menus in certain apps. I'll see if I can pin point when it happens but it happens enough to irritate me. Shouldn't happen at all. Maybe I'll uninstall all home screen replacements and see if that stops it. Maybe if there's no choice but Sense, it will stop. If it doesn't I dont know what to do.
Just did a few more tests, Doesn't happen from the Internet app, Market but if I load up Astro it happens if I hit the home button or if I try to back myself out of the app to the home screen with the back button. However, it seems that if I place the checkmark in the default box when I'm prompted, then it doesn't happen again for that app. Strange huh? You would think this would be global but its acting as if it's per app.
Uninstall qik.

yeah, the new qik update was my problem too.
My fix was to load the latest OTA. Weird huh?
I'm rooted so I don't have the latest ota update. I removed the latest qik update. Let's see if that helps

Install CM6. Fixed it for me.
the best way to replicate the problem for me is to launch an app, hold the home button while in the app, launch another app from the list, and then push the home button once.
The bug triggers when you use the recent application list by holding the home button.
I also noticed that HTC Sense would show up in the recent list ever since I update qik.
Does anyone know if there a way to change the mail application on the lock screen to Handcent? The only time I use the default app is to send MMS because Handcent wont send them for some odd reason.
I have already tried the 'Replace default maill application' setting in Handcent and it doesnt do anything that I can see.
Press menu > personalize > lock screen, scroll over to the one you're using so its selected, press settings, then you should be able to long press the sms app, then change it.

Interesting, I rarely use it, but when I did, it popped up in about five seconds.
Whenever I press the B button it brings up the stock browser, G brings up Gmail and, S brings up the Messaging app.
It makes it difficult to type as I have to keep missing these letters out.
I have not changed any settings on my phone, it suddenly started to happen today..
Any ideas?
Go to settings, applications, quicklaunch. And disable all keyboard shortcuts.

Try a hard reboot (turn off the phone with fastboot disabled if you have Sense). This happened to me when I was running MIUI for abit, a reboot eliminated the problem.

This is the easiest way. No one really uses those.

Holding down the search key for 4 seconds fixes it as well

Go into manage applications and go to the phone / dialer app. There will be a "Clear defaults" option. Next time you press teh icon, you should have that prompt again.
I have put a MP3 tone into the notification folder that I would like to use for my SMS notifications on my M8 but for although I select it and press apply it doesn't play it goes back to the default tone Dahlia. Any Ideas why that is happening?

You need to give Messages (or whatever app you're using) permission to access Storage.
Go to Settings
scroll to and select Apps
scroll to and select Messages
select Permissions
enable Storage
