Launcher Pro is by far my favorite launcher application but I have noticed a few bugs with it on my Vibrant lately. I know it's Launcher Pro causing them because my device doesn't duplicate them when running stock TouchWiz or ADW Launcher.
Bug #1 - When activating GPS it causes the entire phone to freeze and sometimes restart.
Bug #2 - Sometimes apps will not launch at all until I reset my device. If I click on a app it closes will open and close within 1 second.
Has anyone else experienced these bugs?
Been using LP for a few weeks now and haven't noticed either of those bus. In fact, LP has given me no problems at all.
I've had LauncherPro installed since the day I purchased my phone in mid-July. Experienced none of these bugs. I don't think it's LP-related on your end.
The dialer also does not connect to an in call dialer. If you get a phone call and exit out of the dialer, you cannot get back to that dialer. When you click your dialer application, it gives you a fresh dialer acting like no one is connected.

If you pull down on the notification bar, and then press on the green phone icon, it will take you back to your call that is already in progress.
I'm using launcher pro and I've also experienced both of the issues mentioned in the OP. I've been using LP almost since day one, so I can't say whether or not they're LP bugs specifically. The app launching issue I've noticed more with Handcent than any other. On the GPS issue, I don't have any of the "fixes" applied, so it's not that. I'm thinking about reloading a completely stock ROM to see if that might fix it.

I understand this, but the dialer application should work. Thanks for the tip though.

i like launcher pro, but it makes my vibrant noticeable slower than the tw launcher.
LP since July 15th... absolutely no issues.
what other things have you done to the phone? Rom? Lag Fix? Etc?

I'm still on the stock rom. No lag fixes, gps fixes, etc. It's rooted, but that's about it.

I have also had these happen but just with lp. Since the last update I haven't experienced them again. At least for now.

I don't notice any bugs with LP but I mostly use the stock launcher. Just not a fan of the stock android look...
I do notice one bug in ADW launcher though which I use from time to time and that's the scrolling of the home screens. Sometimes I'll try to flick to the next screen and all it'll do is bounce and stay on the same screen. I had this some problem on the mytouch slide so I know it's not a vibrant issue.
YES! I AM EXPERIENCE CONTINUOUS REBOOTS!
My Epic 2.1.1 rooted with 'one-click' method seemed fine for a day. But once I installed LauncherPro, the device stared to reboot continously every 30sec.
I had to go into recovery mode and wipe/factory reset!
Any ideas?
^ did you try and install a system app? Only way I can see that possible... would have absolutely nothing to do with LP.
My launcher pro is working great. I bought the pro version though, thought I might add that launcher was updated today the 3rd.

Yeah, I am LOVING the new twitter widget.. only going to get better.
I've had no problems with LP, but I have with ADW. When opening the tray it keeps, for the lack of better words rebooting the tray. It will show the zoom in effect like 3-5 times before it loads the tray.
My phone is rebooting every 30sec once again! DAMN!
After the first bout, I re-rooted using one-click method, installed supseruser and titaniumbackup, then proceeded to restore all new app+data...
I stayed away from LP, but I went with ADW.Launcher. As far as system apps, I dont believe I installed anything like this; what would be an example of a system app?
I was good for one day, and then this morning, it seemed fine but the batt was very low. After plugging in the charger.... a few min later, this reboot cycle began!
I am on my 3rd recovery wipe/factory reset now.
Anyone else experience this or have recommendations?
I have a bug where it doesn't size live wallpapers properly when changing to landscape mode and the keeps the off size when rotating back to portrait. A dealbreaker for me since I love my lw's

Hi. I've had my aria for a couple of weeks and I downloaded a task manager. But I soon realized that AT&T Navigator opens up every time I receive a SMS. Is there a way to stop it from opening? Thanks in advance.
That's weird. Root it and get rid of that crap. In all seriousness someone smarter than I can probably help you.

Root,flash a new rom, and don't ever use a task manager again.

The best thing I found for this is a program called Autostarts (in the market for a few cents). You have to be rooted, but even on the stock ROM (if you don't want to switch) you can go in and stop programs from running at certain instances. I could never figure it out either, but AT&T Navigator is set to open every time you send or receive a text. Be careful if you do use Autostarts though, you can do some damage if you don't watch what you're doing.
Just in case you decide to jump ship and flash a different ROM, here's the APK for Navigator. Sometimes I prefer it over Google.
How do I download the HTC Sync app so my phone works on HTC Sense? I use it for Phone Finding, and that.
htcsense.com should work (if HTC has the service working) just by adding a HTC Sense account in settings.
except i'm on cm7
Far as I know, the HTCSense integration will only work if you actually run HTC Sense.
use apps like plan b

Won't work on Cyanogen roms, only sense roms, sorry.
Doesn't seem to work anyway, even using stock Sense ROM. (Missus lost her phone this week. Not happy.)

I'm on Leedroid and I use Lookout. Best app out there in my opinion for this sort of thing. Picked up the location of my phone within a few metres or so within about 30 seconds.
I tried WaveSecure which works via a text messaging service instead of the wifi/data connection but nothing seemed to work so I uninstalled it. Then 20 minutes after I uninstalled it I started getting silly texts with all sorts of symbols in them. I had to go onto the Wavesecure site and disable my account to stop them.
I mean, what good is this sort of app when the text to start the tracking or whatever doesnt get there for 45 minutes? The thief could be abroad by then.
Ive had various success with the HTC Sence phone finder in the past, but latley it has been working ok for me.
Ive also tried the Lookout one, that seems to be a bit more reliable than HTC's implimentation.
Also, being logged in to HTC really drains the battery imo.
Yeah, it does, but I had mine set to sync manually which helped beat battery drain.
There's already a thread about this
I'm having the problem with almost alot of twitter apps i've tried. After about an hour of any twitter app running on my phones background it just freezes up!! If anyone could help me I would appreciate it greatly!!
maybe u can try a sense rom and use htc twitter app.
How would I go about doing that? If you don't mind me asking?

Why not just kill those apps? Plus, so long as they aren't causing high battery drain it really doesn't matter. Some things like FB, GMaps, Email etc. just pop up randomly even when auto-sync is off, but normally they don't affect the phone much at all.
try Autorun killers
Try using autorun kill apps, i'm using "Autostarts" and it's good , it organizes apps by events so you can decide which periods you want to kill apps totally, like afterstartup, duringstartup, .... etc.
i killed google play, Maps and eMail and some apps that launch at startup and it works fine

A lot of things are going to start up by themselves, it depends what is set at start use an autostart profram to disable some. But even so, when you kill an app, it sometimes force starts again because well its supposed to. YOu have to go into that program and remove every background service from it in the settings menu if you can. Also some apps are placed in the "empty applications" OOM grouping.. Androids memory management is really hard to fully understand.. the apps in empty applications group are pretty pointless. They do nothing. No CPU usage. THere is a webpage which greatly explains what each group does and i dont remember where it is -.- sorry just google "Android OOM groupings explained" and it should get you some results
Thanks so much for the responses guys!appreciate it
