Wow, i installed it, awesome...right?
Kinda, except the home button is glitchy, i click it and the current app im on will disappear and reappear, so i click it again and the same happens so im stuck in the app. The only way is to reset the phone.
Please help.
Thanks
btw, if i just keep clicking the back button, it will just keep flicking me through apps, not to the home screen.
You need to say what build you are using.
And I Cant tell whats happening to you. Anyway you can post a video?
Basically, it will work fine for ages, easily flicking through apps, going back to the home screen when i click the button. But then it will randomly stop, ill be in an app, internet for example, and then ill click the home button, the app will disappear to the left, and then just reappear and ill be stuck.
I'm using FroyoStone Series by darkstone 2.2 with 2.08 HSPL.
Thanks

You will have much better luck getting your questioned answered in Cookies Thread.

This happened to me randomly after installing an older version of WKtasks. If that's the case, search for the wktasks optimized for the HD2 thread. Or better still, I switched to xTasks, which is much more versatile.
if you don't have wktasks, then sorry, can't help you here. I suggest you uninstall your programs backwards, and see if the problem recurs.
This is madly weird. I've been flashing roms on HTC phones for years and what I have just found with my HTC HD is after flashing to a new ROM is that I can not go back to the home screen with either the hardware button or the soft home button in the start menu. It just will not have it. The phone works but weirdly with no home screen. The start menu works as does to the call hardware button to take me to the phone dialer etc. Just no ability ot get to the homescreen.... only time i have ever seen it is after restart, but then homescreen will hang and when I navigate away from it, ie with start or call button I can not get back and screen refreshes are bad.
The only way i seem to be able to use my phone any more is not have manila of any flavour running?
Weird, any thoughts. Sorry for the ramble - I have done loads of searches to try and sort this but to no avail.
FIXED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very weird, FIXED...
FIXED by deleting app data on memory card. Found this out by accident as it worked without mem card in phone. WEIRD.
app data?
what do you mean by "app data on memory card"?
uhm... the application data folder?

This is a well known problem with 23xxx ROMs. Deleting the application data folder solves a number of problems. Check out Energy's thread for more info.
I've searched everywhere and haven't come across anyone with similar problems. When I boot up, everything is working fine, can see the big beautiful clock and use the touchflo slider at the bottom. After a few minutes, the screen just freezes at whatever screen it was on last. Touch interface doesn't work at all. Only when I click the start menu hard button and bring up the start menu does the touch screen work again. The thing is, I can't go back to the home screen again. I can only use the phone's functions from the start menu, which is very annoying. Also, when I launch an application, everything is fine, but when I exit it, the screen remains at whatever it was showing at the last view. Again, have to click to the start menu hard button to bring up any functionality and never see the home screen again.
Anyone know whats wrong?
Also: Using Miri v24, Radio 2.15.
I had a similar problem with Miri v24. I gave up in the end and installed Arthemis ROM instead. Works fine now.
Out of curiosity, are you using CHT?
Sounds like somethings causing Sense/Manila to crash.......
Try uninstalling CHT (if your using it)
Or hard reset.....
If you can still use the start menu then its not a "screen problem"....
it sounds like a software problem that should be sorted by a hard reset..
hope that helps

Nope. Fresh install of Miri with nothing added. I'll try Arthemis and see how it goes. Thanks!
I found a way to take sreenshots with the built in method.
You have to press home button and then quickly hit the back button.
And voila you have your Screenshot. They are stored in /sdcard/sreencapture.
Don't you mean hold the back key then quickly press the home button?
Been using that since last year on the leaked froyo roms.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Yea you are right its easier. I just didnt knew it before. Its easier than using shoot me.
This will only work if you have ScreenCaptureService.apk in system/app
A lot of custom roms do not have it.
/qsec
Hold Back key Then Press Home key
Isn't it the opposite?
Holding the Back Button, then pressing the Home button?
At least that's how it works on my SGS...
Edit: I was replying to OP
I have also been using this feature since JPY (or maybe earlier) but has anyone noticed some applications action the "back" while holding the back button, so you get a screenshot of the wrong screen! Pretty irritating.... for an example, try to take a screenshot while viewing an image in gallery application - you'll get a capture of the folder you came from and not the image you're looking at. Anyone know how to get around this? *shrugs*
Im using jvk and.. hold back button plus hit home button works great.. makes a cool camera noise and everything... thanks guys...

i also got same problem with some apps when i press and hold back button they go on back screen
i am using screen shot it it works well and i can take sceenshot of almost any page
Holding back button and pressing home works like a charm thnx!
edit: exept when i try to take screenshot of a screen other then my homescreen. (it jumps back to home screen when i push the button)
How do i prevent going back to the homescreen?
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW! No, seriously, WOW! Best built-in feature. Babai Shootme. You were great! :$
It is old thing...Was somebody put thread in our forum about it, some months ago...
Regards
^^Yep. Quite old.
For the people facing problems with the screens changing, try opening a menu in the screen you want a screenshot of. The menu will go back to the original screen and a screen shot will be taken.

hey, another bruneian on xda!
flash news: It's something known since froyo appeared
Sadly still doesn't work for me... when I'm in the app list an try to take scrrenshot it goes back to homescreen and takes screenshot of that. When I open a menu in the app list it stays there when I take screenshot... think I'll have to go and get an app for this..
Hi all, a noobie here, I have a DZ running 2.3.3, although I had this problem before the OTA update. When I press the home button, on what is becoming annoying frequently, it crashes, the screen goes white with HTC in green, then the home screen appears, greyed out, with loading in the centre, for 15 to 30 seconds. I have tried uninstalling various apps, to see if they are the cause but it seems to make no difference. Any ideas to at least try and find out what is causing this? I have thought of doing a factory reset but would rather not if there is an easier way.
I have the same problem, It's annoying every now and again, but i've tried a factory reset which hasn't helped in anyway.
I'm not impressed with the 2.3.3 ROM..
It sounds like the launcher is closing itself to save memory. You probably have a memory-hogging app constantly running in the background. You could try force-closing the app in the App Settings menu, or you could install an alternative launcher such as LauncherPro (link) off the Market.
Just trying launcherpro now, so far so good, as stated earlier, I'm a join, would I be correct, from what I have seen so far using it, that I am no longer using HTC Sense?

Your ROM is still HTC Sense. You're just using a new launcher.
