Hi,
I flashed my phone to the 1.61 from 1.43, and suffer huge slowdowns at times.
It seems to be when the device is woken up & unlocked, the lock screen remains, and Sense / apps perform extremely slowly. I'm forced to reset to fix the problem.
Just out of curiosity (before I 'downgrade' to 1.48), anybody else had the same problems?
Many thanks,
Daniel.
ever tried clearing the caches out (opera etc)
161 is fine for me..
+ 1 for me too. No problem with slowdown. I clean regurarly using SK Tools.
Cheers guys, I'll try SK Tools out.

did you hard-reset after flash?
Should you always do a hard reset after a flash? Didn't know it was needed. I had assumed a flash was effectively the same as a hard-reset!
The flash only rewrites the ROM! It does NOT erase the "c:"
It is like to install a new os without formating the partition first! All files left by the previous build are still there and this may cause issues!

If you flash with the stock RUU, it does a hard reset for you. If you use the "customRUU" it doesn't do a hard reset.

Oh! so whenever we flash a new *official* ROM, we do not need to do a hard reset?

whenever you flash using the exe direct from htc you don't need to hard reset.
when you flash using sd card or using the custom ruu then you ned to manually hard reset
But regarding the slow down, yes I have the problem and I think its related to all the syncing with email/facebook/weather/etc... If you are on a G reception then it will take longer to download these updates, and if you have power saving option enabled then it will do this after the device "awakes" as it won't do it as well in Standby as it is power saving.
I've used BSB Tweaks and disabled the option which seemed to work for me

Cheers for your reply - so you disabled the power saving option? What effect does this have on battery life?

How to fully reformat WM? I got a little bug but it cannot fix it. I want fully reformat it. How?
What you mean, I think, is a hard resett. Shutdown the X1 and press the 2 silver buttons downside the display while you are turning on the X1. Than it comes a message like this "Would you really resett your Device? Press space to confirm".
cemetry
Ya. But not the hard rest. I just want to format my phone and reinstall. Because i try hard rest before the bug still here
I think you would need to reflash the ROM if it is the ROM that's giving you trouble.

Flash the Hard SPL into phone download the ROM release at XDA. Then only install the ROM. It is correct?
I'm not understanding you..
Try using the official R2A10 firmware?

Thanks! I ended up doing a hard reset. Didn't work using the settings version of a hard reset but did work when holding down the off button.

Agree because a hard reset will reset everything what you changed in the settings etc bring it back to the settings from the factory or rom maker, Also it will delete everything.

Hey there.
I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing this problem with your phone. Either your hardware is damaged or your software. My best guess is your software, seeing as your phone's touch screen stopped working right after you conducted a hard reset. Perhaps you can get your touch screen working again by flashing your original firmware through KDZ.
If you've got anymore problems and/or questions, feel free to ask!

That's gonna be a really big problem, I think. Can you boot into CWM and do a full factory reset along with wiping your cache and dalvik cache?

You said you conducted a hard reset on your phone which is what initially possibly caused your touch screen to stop working. Try to perform the exact same steps and conduct a hard reset again.
If I somehow brick my custom ROM and need to back up to a previous state, will this security app cause problems and not allow me to fix my phone?
Just wondering! Thanks.

I always used that,and never had a problem flashing roms (didnt turn it off before flashing)
i think it only stops say if you lost your phone, and somebody found it, and they did the hard reset option in storage (factory reset)
doesnt think it stops it at all at the custom recovery/ODIN level

Ah, that makes me feel a lot better. Thanks man.
But does that mean they could instead flash a backup or something onto the phone to bypass that "hard" reset?

yes, if a computer geek finds it you're done
but with sprint you can have them blacklist the EMEI
on GSM they could still use your phone

Install stock firmware, factory reset. You will lose ALL data and settings.

Yes, I also tried by factory reset. I cant explain exact issue, some virus/malware exist on my phone which makes my phone slow.
I tried many antiviruses but no luck so far.
So I want to format/repair/restructure folder/system files of phone so that infected files gets deleted from phone.
Factory reset and installing stock firmware is not replacing/deleting all folders/files of my phone.

How do you know your phone is infected though? Factory reset + flashing already overwrites all your system files.....

okay, but your phone being slow does not mean it is infected. the prob might be with something else. maybe hardware?
