[Q] HTC Settings app broken - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all
I got a bit of a problem. I recently upgraded to 2.29 and rooted again. Now when i launch the settings app after reboot, it works.
But when i close it and try to open it again it just doesnt show and throws me back to my home screen.
Any ideas about what could be the problem?
Using DATA2SD btw, also killing Settings app has no effect + hot reboot has no effect. Only full reboot fixes it temporarly
TY

I'm not familiar with this problem, but can you explain how you updated it? Have you done it correctly I mean.

it seems not to be a problem with the ROM, titanium backup is restoring an app or setting that seems to be causing it.
EDIT: Theft Aware was the problem

Phone getting stuck a low clock speeds

Every once in a while when I wake my phone up, the clock speed stays at what it gets set to when the screen is off. The profiles seem to not work at this point until I reboot. I'm running stable cyanogenmod. Is there any way to remedy this?

I thought that I had this problem on my cliq... turns out that the profiles were switching but the widget wasnt updating...could that be your issue?

No. I did have that problem on my G1 but on this phone when it says it's running at 300 Mhz, it is. Apps open slower, linpack is low. It's definitely getting stuck somwhere.

I wkuld recomend auto detecting speeds to make sure its got the right info for your kernel. Then i would reboot the phone. Also try turning the widget off. If your still stuck uninstall setcpu and start frrom scratch. I would reflash my kernel at this point as well.

Anyone? Please this makes the phone almost unusable!
Give us a little more info;
Are you using a stock ROM? if not what modifications have you made?
Does this only happen when you run the app or does it happen from cold boot?
Is this happening every boot? Have you tried clearing cache or resetting to factory settings?
Unfortunately this is the only option I can think of which should definitely resolve this.
Stock Htc 1.72 no root
I cleared camera cache and have rebooted multiple times
How would I back up all my data, themes ansa apps?

Hi,
here is the solution.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14069881&postcount=6333
I had same problem downloaded from market and it FC so just un-installed it
as far as im aware its the same for all GB build as the battery info isnt got from the engineer mode like in froyo (*#*#4636#*#*) its got from settings - about phone - battery. This is why spareparts is FC when u select battery history

Wiped data with cm7

Hi people,
Go a question about cm7. I really like the rom, and want to use it. I have had it installed with data2ext script. All's going good until I restart the phone. Then all of my user data is wiped. I have to log on to most apps again except for market and my contacts were still there. Even the wallpaper had changed. Anybody got a clue. Is it the d2e script?
Thanx in advance for any replys!

Strange effects after ending a call

Sometimes having weird stuff happening after i end a call: goes to some random contact in edit mode / dropbox app opens / etc
Tested carefully and it's not due to accidental touches around the "end call" button, it even did it once or twice without me ending the call...call ended by the other side, calling screen got closed and some contact popped out.
happens rarely, but wtf?
Are u on custom rom???

I'm unrooted and I get the same things. It's like I pushed something bit I heaven't. I hope that HTC will address this issue in their next update

The thing that pops up... is it the last thing you used or used recently?
Like cronus101 asked, if the apps that show after ending the call are the most recently used apps, then I'm guessing HTC Sense (the launcher) is crashing each time and since there's no home screen to go to, it displays the last used app. Pressing back will also cycle through the recently used. This is my guess. Try clearing data of HTC Sense in Settings-Manage apps. The best way to get rid of this is to do a factory reset and start afresh. There could be many reasons why Sense is crashing. This behaviour is typical of any launcher when it FCs. If you don't want to factory reset, you can try using a different launcher (Apex, Nova) and see if this still happens.

Hm, out of ideas. Factory reset should fix it once and for all.
