[Q] Why Sense is restarting? - HTC One X

Hi!
I've got a friend who's One X is restarting Sense randomly.
What's up with that? Someone else who are having this "feature"?
Is there a way to get rid of this?
I told him to factory restore the phone and put one app at the time on the phone to see if it was a running app that was the problem, but no it was not. It does restart Sense without any installed apps.

Hi,
It's the task manager of HTC, when you use a a program that use much memory (Internet with flash, games), the application manager of HTC kills un-used programs, like Sense, to clean up memory...

I would recommend using a different launcher, such as apex, and setting the option to keep it in memory. its far faster, better looking imho and doesn't restart all the time
However, saying that, issues with Sense were fixed in one of the earlier updates

He told me he have had this problem on all his HTC phones besides ONE HTC Desire HD!
He have had: HD2, Desire, Desire HD, Sensation and now One X.
My One X does not do this all the time, after a game it does reloads Sense not when browsing or using the phone.
It have never happened to me.

Hello, I also have the same probleme with my sensation but only since the official OTA ICS update.

When i was on my first custom ICS ROM on Sensation i had this problem as well, but i thought it was because Sense 4 was not made for Sensation. I solved it by using System Tuner. But he is not rooted, so.... or maybe it is working with system Tuner and the taskmanager without root?
Must check this!

I said the problem is present when you use Internet with heavy flash content (like HD flash videos)

[Q] Are the HD sense roms slower than the normal Sense roms?

Greetings XDA members,
I bought a desire 3 weeks ago and so far I am really satisfied with it.
After exploring this site, I learned that it is possible to load the new sense on the desire. With the camera working, it becomes even more attractive.
My question is: are the HD sense roms slower than the normal sense roms?
Because this is one thing I really want: a speedy phone (no lag when browsing menus, homescreens, etc...). Is it possible to compare a quadrant score?
I now run stock unrooted 2.2 froyo.
Thanx!
im actually experiencing WAY faster response, the original sense had some lag, the HD does not. but this is my experience.
I Switched from Modaco R9 to RCmixHD yesterday as the Camera fix came out.
My Experience ist that the HD ROM is much faster and more responsive.
Quadrant is about 1650 +-50 points.
The first boot of RCmixHD takes a very long time, but after that it runs like hell!
Yep, HD ROM is noticeably quicker than stock Sense
good ROM, stable, quick, no lag for the moment.
1st boot really long.
Yep, new-Sense seems faster to me despite all the pretty animations. Quadrant confirms this, despite the fact that I'm using the same richardtrip kernel as I was with Auraxt.

I have the same quadrant score running aurax so thats not a score. I've been trying RCMixHD but came back to stock sense.. nothing special for now. When the new sense officially appear for desire it will be much more new custom, better roms.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
But the non-HD ROMs are all tweaked up to hell to get them quick. I get 1700+ with NO tweaks made to the ROM and on the stock kernel that it comes with. If I was to play with UVOC and the like we could be over 2000
Nice, i'll try it again if the camera fully work.

Which way to root?
okay, thanks for the quick replies. I'm pretty sure the HD rom is better than what I have now
Second question: What is the best way to root my phone because I find dozens of methods to do it and some say it won't work on 2.2 etc?
I had 2.2 when I bought the phone.
software-number: 2.10.405.2
H-boot: 0.93
Can I use unrevoked 3.21? Or is that not possible because I already have 2.2?
Thank you again for the help!
As I remember you have to downgrade your hboot and then try unrevorked. Best and easy.

Just try Unrevoked without downgrading something, it will work
Don't forget to install the modded USB-Drivers...
You don't need to downgrade just run unrevoked and it will work.
after reading HD rom is faster than stock rom, i would love to flash it on my desire....i have a rooted desire running Leedroid 2.2f, what version of HD rom do you suggest ? also how do i back up everything except the system apps etc ? the leedroid i flashed was after i rooted my desire for the first time and i am a newbie at flashing, rooting etc
And my last question...
okay thanks, I just don't want to brick my phone. That's the reason for all my questions...
last question: Today I use HTC Sync to sync playlists with itunes and contacts and agenda with outlook. I now you have to uninstall HTC Sync to perform the rooting and flashing. But can you use it afterwards to sync all that info and media?
Thank you!
I found it is much faster since using the HD rom has anyone signed up to the htcsense.com service? Or are you leaving it incase the desire officially gets the new sense.
i think there faster then ne most sense roms. some of the HD Sense Rom´s are slowly but most of them are fast
You have to uninstall HTC Sync before rooting!
After u can reinstall it again!
Some things in the HD ROMs are definately slower (even if only some) .. for example one important thing: pulling out the notification area lags a bit if you didn't do it for a while. Might sound minor bit annoyed me after some time...
Ge...ta...ta...tapatalked mit meinem Desire
Firstly, Quadrant and such I ignore and they mean nothing to me. Actual usage dictates.
Desire HD Sense is faster/smoother/more responsive overall. It's also more polished up in many areas. I've noticed the speed with certain apps (camera/those using camera) and the browser. I'm saying this with over 20 constantly sync'ing, chunky widgets on the screens which made the HTC Desire 2.2 Sense lag. Especially Pure Messenger.
The only semi-bug I have is network band switching causing a high amount of lag when it occurs. Pretty much everything freezes up for a few seconds at those moments while I don't get that on the typical HTC 2.2 ROM. This still may not be ROM related though.
I sincerely think anyone comfortable with stock 2.2 or a tweaked version of it will love the HD ROM once they've tried it. My experience is only with RCMixHD to make it clear.

HTC DHD gingerbread update related queries.

I recently got an OTA update for gingerbread in HTC desire HD.
The problem is.
1) as I heard, gingerbread give way better battery optimization compared to froyo, but I find no difference. Still I find my DHD consuming a lot of energy and Atleast is comes to 30 by end of the day.
2) as my phone is not rooted. Where can I find .apk skins and sense for my DHD.
3) My lockscreen is the same what I had in froyo. Gingerbread has a new one. How can I change it.
4) And my keyboard is also the same as before. I m not able to locate the default gingerbread keyboard.
5) The UI is pretty much the same what I had in froyo. Does that mean I m still using froyo though I find my software version as 2.3.3 gingerbread.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
1) Try not keeping Wifi & 3G on, for me those have been using lots of power even when im not using them
2) HTC Hub or here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048894
3) Because the DHD has Sense it has the HTC lockscreen, im pretty sure you can install the stock lockscreen though.
4) Again, since it's Sense you are given HTC's keyboard, but if you search around you can find an apk of the stock gingerbread keyboard (i've seen it in the marketplace)
5) The UI is still HTC Sense 2.1, but yes it's Gingerbread. It just doesn't look like stock gingerbread does (green battery logo, menus, etc)
Thanks Sromer. That almost answered all my doubts.

[Q] Best ROM for Desire Z for BEST RAM PERFORMANCE

Hello. I need help regarding the best ROM for my Desire Z. I need either sense 3.0 or sense 3.5 and need the best possible ram as i have already installed 4 ROMs and i have had problems with lags in messages and the lag in circle ring lock. overall homescreens as smooth but i need ram for reading msgs fast and applications launch quickly like on my default sense 2.1. i have tried runnydroid which is probably the fastest in homescreen scrolling but very weak in ram and opening apps. currently running desire HD rom with sense 3.0 v1.3 which is slightly better but i need something better in terms of RAM and with sense 3.0 or 3.5
help would be really appreciated
thanks
first of all, let's clear things out... sense 3.x was never meant to run on our desire z, i say HTC made a mistake when they released an official 3.x update
second, sense 3.x needs LOTS of ram to work. So, you don't have enough ram to run apps, solution? try the v6 supercharger script, set it as multitasking settings...
want more? make a SWAP partition on your sdcard, SWAP makes a part of your sdcard to work as ram...
want even more, you can bulletproof you messages app in order not to automatically kill it when in need of ram
i'll give you links if you want

First of all thanks for your kind replies. Riro Zizo thanks alot for these links. Can you tell me which ROM what work the best with these? the thing is that there must be a ROM which would be better in RAM performance. like my desire HD rom was better than runnydroid at least it was usable. now what do u mean by official sense 3.0 update? my last update was android 2.3.3 with 2.1 sense which is why i installed custom roms to get newer sense. thanks a lot
and blackknightavalon what do u mean by AOSP?
thanks a lot
oh one more thing. ive heard that with swap the sdcard gets a lower life and it dies quickly after a while

Same position as you on Desire Z and HAD to have Sense 3 - well after trying Unity and Affinity and another that wouldn't even boot and loads of crashes and mem issues I gave up. Yes I did the swap partition (for Leedroid/Ace but those never would install via CM recovery 5) didn't do the supercharger thing...but eventually went to G-Lite and really happy.
Sense is great but slow/laggy, even on Virtuous Sense or my stock rom...my OTA GB was slow too. Best to find or invest in a few apps or widgets and switch to a non Sense rom like G-Lite cos RAM is a real issue on the Z it seems (reason for rooting apart from the usual privacy/adware stuffs was speed, upset at seeing LOADING every time I opened my homescreen)

I agree... Sense-less ROMs are the best ones and they run the smoothest on Desire Z. I first took on CM7 and then moved to Bulletproof's MIUI which stopped me from selling my phone. However, even then the phone started to lag after a months use. Next step was to move to Elitemod244 which is basically based on CM7 but supercharged and ultra-fast. This stopped me from dumping my phone to get a Galaxy Nexus.
I would recommend that you try Elitemod244 (or the latest version if you want) and then modify it to your liking. It will take some time, but at least your phone will be fast and would work as it should instead of hanging or reloading the launcher time n time again.
thanks for your kind replies but the thing is i NEED sense 3.0 or 3.5 and i will run this desire HD rom if i dont get any other roms. ive already used cyangenmod already but i need sense. are there any roms which might be better than the desire HD rom? and im recently having an issue that i dont receive all text messages and some of these are lost in this particular rom. any way to fix this?

In that case i would go for Virtuous Sense, doesn't have to much bullsht in it..
And for the lost messages, there is standard an app installed in these roms that collects all your messages.
Btw.. I'm surfing xda for 2 years now daily, and today is the first time i made an account Really EVERYTHING about everything has been asked before i came here, so there was no need for it.
Just wanted to say this...
you can try any sense rom you want without any issues if you do all these tweaks i told you about... launcher reloads can be solved by making a file called "local.prop" in /data/ (if you already have the file, edit it) and put this inside it
Code:
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1
and reboot... this WILL solve your problem, GUARANTEED
Why do you need Sense that bad? We're trying to get rid of it over on the MT4GS boards.

Just curious, what do you need Sense for?
I was losing text messages also, but I solved that by preventing the messaging apk from being closed. It's a simple setting in Cyanogenmod, but I believe that is what Riro Zizo is talking about when they say Bulletproof an app.

Blackout incredible has Sense 3.6 And when I apply the v6Supercharger it works pretty fine. But remember that you need to Format your SD card before you install it. It gives you extra performance. atleast it happened to me.
I fully understand why you might want a SENSE rom.
I have tried many roms since my DZ is out of warranty, the Mimicry one was nearly the best, except it had bad performances after some weeks of usage.
And this AOSP was a android 4 rom with nice custom features, but there was a LOT i missed from SENSE. Let's just talk about the weather/clock widget, the audio player, the FM radio app, the nice interface, the perfect virtual keyboard...
Sense really offers the best user experience on that phone.
A few days ago I finally the perfect rom, you should try it: TrickDroid 4.0.0
As told in the corresponding topic on xda, you just absolutely need to enable swap because it's a full Sense 4.
And if you want some specific tweaks from AOSP, of you want to remove some things from Sense, the TrickDroid Tweaks allows you to simply do that.

Will HTC Sense 4.0 be available for Desire from xda when released?

Main features from Sense 4.0 as follows:
Based on Ice-cream sandwich (long waited android OS)
Better DropBox integration with 50GB online storage (can auto mount as network drive.)
Notifications on lock screen (like iOS 5)
Enhanced email with new Sense
Guest Mode
Beats audio is now standard from HTC now on ...

Depends...
The memory footprint for sense keeps on growing and becoming larger with each new version
I suspect ICS + Sense 4.0 will take up a huge amount of memory.
I'm quite sure there will be a way to get it, but your internal memory will be less.

I thought they (htc) were suppose to have optimized 3.5 a lot for low-spec phones (i.e. bliss).
I'd guess that unless it comes to the Desire HD / Sensation then it might be a bit unlikely. ICS with sense 3.5 from the sensation doesn't seem to have had a successful port yet.

True. That have optimized the newer versions for performance and speed.
However, along the way, they have been adding new apps and widgets which take up space. (fb chat, reader, watch, notes, tasks etc) this means the footprint gets larger.
However, I have read that HTC are aware that their Sense UI has started to become bloated, and they say Sense 4.0 will be a lot different.
Hopefully that's the case.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
i think that no... and if we run one, will be asop...
Of course it's possible, just a matter of time
it'd be easy to reduce the load on sense though by removing some of the bloatware
laputa, stocks for example I always rip out - fb chat, reader, watch can probably easily go too
i still think the BEST way for HTC to go with the likes of bloatware would be to just simply move it to HTC hub as optional downloads/installs rather than forcing crap on users

I agree on this, most of the HTC apps should be optional which could speed up the system. One of the main problem is get the hardware CPU/GPU support from Qualcomm optimize for ICS.
Am I the only one thinking that Sense 4 so far seems to be to cosmetic? Just like 3 was, i think they stepped it up only with 3.5

I thought Sense 2.1 -> Sense 3.0 was one of the bigger overhauls - but even then most of it was minor (i.e. new lockscreen was fairly major, but 3D widgets and carousel was fairly minor)
I guess Sense 1.x -> 2.0/2.1 was fairly major too as they added HTC Sense and HTC Hub - but again one major feature to a lot of minor tweaks..
3.x to 4.x seems to be about the same, with the major update being.... ? the menu animations?

Runnymede sense 3.5 rom is fast for me too.
Just add a video link (1st post) showing the new sense look.
Tried Runnymede and lots of ROM from XDA. It looks great,but I always felt lag in it.
Then I go back to Sense 2.1+3.0 ROM. A lot faster than Runnymede. And I do no want to use Runnymede again. Class 4 SD used.
Just put 2 Desires on table, one with Runnymede and other with, let's say, Revolution ROM. And then tell me which one works fast and smooth? Also, on which ROM battery will last longer, under same conditions?
Please, be real and objective.
3.5 ROMs are slow on Desire compared to 2.1+3.0. Period.

Seen videos of the new Sense on the One X (if anyone is interested click here)
Seems theres a new Typeface, lockscreen seems the same as before with slightly tweaked functionality, the launcher at the bottom of the screen is changed to look a bit more like things like GoLauncher, LauncherPro etc.
Side swipe through menu with altered modes (like your favourites, recent etc) something I couldn't make out near the top as well, looks like market loader, a delete function (?)
They seem to have also altered the ICS recent apps thing, if I'm honest it looks a bit like Windows Vista/7 window view.
It seems a lot smoother and neater actually, but on the Desire? 3.5 is still clunky compared to Earlier Pure Sense (2.x etc)and Hybrids, so I'm guessing it'll be a long time till its useable, but I would love to see it implemented!
Before someone says anything like 'Yu havenet used 3.5 its awesomez and supa dupa fast' I have used it with a class 6 card, CoolBliss, did not like it, slow and juttery, went back to the Hybrids. My opinion, don't flame.

Stuttering Sense

Hi guys,
Anyone experience stuttering homescreens on their One X? I have every single page of my Launcher filled, I'm running Stock Sense and I am using the Sense Launcher.
Don't tell me 'simple fix; don't use all of your homescreens' when I was using my Desire HD, and even Desire this problem was not apparent.
I think it sucks that we have LiveWallpaper issues, Sense issues, boot issues (if near low battery), HTC have had plenty of bugs to iron out these problems! Not to mention Gingerbread kernel (oh daym)

I talked to HTC Jeff Gordon about this and lets hope they listen
Hi hamdir,
I have been through the thread you provided the link to & tried to post there but was not allowed to. I have tried to install the ultrasmooth but am I still stuttering so I was wondering if you could take a look at what I'm doing because it's probably not correct. Apologies but this is my first android phone, which I only got yesterday & I don't understand a lot of the terminology. So this is what I have done so far:
Rooted phone, installed ARHD 6.0 & bricked kernel 3.0. To install ultrasmooth I have -
Downloaded version for 1.29.401.11 (this is correct one for me) & saved to the downloads folder in my One X.
Boot the phone into Clockworkmod recovery & choose install file from sd card.
Locate Ultrasmooth zip file in the One X downloads folder & install.
Install completes successfully & when I reboot it tells me that android is updating but then when I get to the home screen it's still far from smooth.
Thanks
I have been in contact with HTC discussing the stuttering issue and the pausing live wallpaper when moving between screens, I went though a few processes escalation teams etc. The most recent reply I got was that my request had been forwarded to their r&d department in Taiwan to try and put the fixes in a future update

seriously? :| far from smooth? you are the first to experience this
you did the correct process, i never tricked bricked kernel, im on stock
did you still have the 3d widgets layers? this is how u can tell if its applied
edit: why dont u try the latest ARHD 6.1.0 its included and asks if you want to be installed while flashing the ROM
Thanks for the quick reply.
The widgets do look 3D still so I guess either I'm doing something not quite right or that it doesn't work with bricked kernel.

did you ever uninstall and re install sense launcher?
I'm expierencing micro stuttering on this phone all around. I'm finding it to be largely unrelated to the launcher, as it is by no means stutter free on Apex either. I'm on stock, unrooted and very disappointed my quad core phone stuttters more than the galaxy y (€ 59,-) we have laying around here.

I've never unistalled the sense launcher, should I try that?
Thanks

no I have no idea why its not working for you, you can try arhd 6.1.0
@schiphol after ultra stutter is unrelated to launcher its a device fresh out of the one so expect performance updates
by the way I definitely had no micro stutter due to supercharger die hard patch
I just switched to hard to kill and micro stutter is back
Cheers, I'll give it a try
The home screen stutter is definitely due to those sense Widgets. When I remove them the UI is very smooth. But of course not using those widgets doesn't make any sense (.......)

Hi guys,
Anyone experience stuttering homescreens on their One X? I have every single page of my Launcher filled, I'm running Stock Sense and I am using the Sense Launcher.
Don't tell me 'simple fix; don't use all of your homescreens' when I was using my Desire HD, and even Desire this problem was not apparent.
I think it sucks that we have LiveWallpaper issues, Sense issues, boot issues (if near low battery), HTC have had plenty of bugs to iron out these problems! Not to mention Gingerbread kernel (oh daym)

Never experienced any lag on my One X (Completely stock).
Also, while 2.6.x kernels have been largely used in gingerbread roms, the 2.6.x kernel series are not Gingerbread-specific. Yes it's an old kernel series and 3.x (particularly 3.4) would be a lot better for android, linux kernel versions are not associated with any one version of android
I have stutter when switching between my clock page and my Twitter sense app. Apart from that no stutter. I have all pages filled up with HTC widgets aswell. Sense doesn't lag though. Only stutters ever so slightly. I'm not sure why though.:/
