Anyone else have this ?
My homescreen consists of Beautiful Small Home, Audiomanager Small, couple of other smaller Beautiful Widgets, and SD Card and Internal Memory Widgets.
On other screens I have Facebook and messages widget.
My question is this.
On a reboot, when everything appears to have loaded, my homescreen still has blank entries for most of the widgets, unless I swipe to another screen and back again, and then they refresh.
Why does it do this ?

I have this issue as well. Doesn't seem to happen when sense is disabled.
Is any body else experiencing lag for their weather animation on the Home tab? I don't have this problem on my Weather tab, it looks great. Only when in my home tab, it looks like it runs smooth for half the time, then it gets really chopppy and slow.
I've already tried messing with my shortcuts, and removing my sd card, but those aren't the problems. I also have BSB Tweaks installed, and tried disabling the power saver option, but that didn't do anything either.
Mine does that as well sometimes, not always.
You could try disabling "V-Sync" on the device. Or instead of having the HTC Sense userinterface allocate resources "as needed", you could increase the minimum and maximum amount of resources it is always guaranteed to be utilizing at any given time.
Try searching the forums for those minor registry tweaks and I'm sure you won't be disappointed.
Just did a hard reset, that seemed to do the trick. Also using a 8GB class 6 SD card now, with not too much performance increase. May go back to the stock 16GB class 2 card for more storage.
check ur task manager.
you could be using up too much memory. if you have applications running in the background when the home screen weather animation is loading it could slow it down.
i noticed this with my touch pro 2 as well.
I have noticed the HD2 is lagging terrible when The wifi is trying to connect or the data connection changes. When the signal changes it even lags the device. I am not sure if this is a radio problem or what because all roms so far have this issue
Any updates on this issue?
I've discovered that when I hard reset my HD2, it turns out pretty nice. No lag at all, clouds and screenwipers really smooth =)
But then the breaking point, I install the cookie's tabs, it installs .net framework, immediately the weather animations start to lag..
I don't wanna uninstall the cookies tab (and .net) because I'm using pretty much every application from those quick links. the winter is coming, I wanna enable the weather animations, but I can't do it right now because it's too irritating and slowing the quick link screen changes. they become laggy too.
oops.. just came here with google search and didn't notice that its t-mobile thread. hope it's not a problem.
So far,
I've done every performance trick mention in these forums, but nothing has changed.
This thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=629388
has specific tweaks supposed to increase the performance but no, nothing has changed. VSync is disabled, SENSE memory is increased, but still lagging in the weather application.
Should I just switch to a custom ROM? Makes me think that this'll not solve it since it was running just fine before .net 3.5 as I mentioned before.
Weather is annoying me now because it refuses to update. When I click "update now", the little arrow moves in a circle for a few minutes then nothing changes. It's been doing this since I had my stock 2.13 ROM...I did a Task 29, hard reset, formatted my class 6 SD card, and installed Spike's ROM and it still does the same damn thing...
If I disable phone altogether and turn on WiFi, it will update.
How can I just disable Weather altogether on my home screen without disabling Sense?
Oh yeah, and the stuttering does seem to be related to the data connection trying to sync after coming out of sleep...
You could try installing Cookies Home Tab and using the editor to turn off the animations all together. As far as I know you can't "uninstall" weather from the home tab, but you can turn the animations off and just make it a static image.

Slide to the weather tab tap menu/settings and uncheck update.
hi,
I just figure out the BSB tweaks make animation lag, (since Im new user to HD2) I notice it after installation yesterday, right know after uninstalling the bsb tweak, the cloud motion is not lag anymore....
im on duttylacreme
That annoyed the crap out of me also. When I flashed a new rom it smoothed out. I get stutters when I turn the screen on and it immediately does a check to update the weather, but every other time it's smooth. I'm on miri and dinik's anastasia one from the non tmous roms page. It also fixed any sms lag I had too, if you're experiencing that.
So there's no way to remove the weather app from the phone?

I suppose if you're using cookies home editor you could choose a different weather app to associate with the weather tab of sense and that would not update unless you chose it manually.
you do not need to install or tweak anything to turn the animation from the home screen off, simply select animated wallpaper and choose any wallpaper you want from your sd card or device just as if you were choosing a weather wallpaper
I installed CM 7.02 to eMMC yesterday.
Is there a sort of CM7 GUI user guide? I don't know if it behaves like it should or not.
For example, in the status bar I see notification icons for some programs. But when I click on them only narrow gray panel with few stripes pops up. Is it normal?
I can see full-screen notification panel only if I tap "circle with green arrow" icon.
I used rooted NC stock 1.1 before and I used Titanium backup.
After installing CM7 I downloaded Titanium backup from Market and restored most of the apps (>100). I restored "apps with data" but not system data. Is it the right way to migrate from stock?
Some apps work but for example, Amazon Appstore can't accept my login/password. Should I uninstall it and reinstall from web? Will it recognize device and allow to use apps that were free for one day but now paid?
Google Market only offers me to re-install paid apps, not free ones.
Added: And I also restored autostarts. It disables certain apps from starting after certain events. I used it with stock. Its settings seem to be restored to. Can this damage CM7?
What's the best way to migrate apps from stock to CM7?
How can I read/write data on my Nook from Windows through USB?
I understand that CM7 uses Linux partition and I need some tools (?) but why can't I see my SD card in NC as I used to do with stock ROM? I don't have ADB or SDK on PC, didn't need it for stock.
My SD card is formatted FAT32. I don't think CM7 altered it because from Nook I can see all files.
But in Windows I only see two drive letters when I connect NC with USB, no data can be read, it says "device not ready".

This is normal, try dragging the little panel with the stripes that pops up to the top of your screen.

Eh, the market works for me. It's usually pretty quick to just grab whatever isn't installed off the market when i need it.

You may need to manually tell cm7 to share with windows, there will be an option for that in the notification bar when you plug it it.
You could also try a different USB port. Sometimes when i'm in windows it will stop working when plugged into the front of my computer, sometimes when plugged into the back. Switching to another port always clears things up.
It also sounds like you may want to turn off "Compatibility Mode" under the Spare Parts app...
Thanks a lot, everything works now.
It looks like Zeam launcher scrolls screens a bit slower in CM7 than in stock ROM. Not that smooth and I overclocked to 925MHz "on demand".
I tried ADW with minimum icons and it looks a bit smoother. But Zeam has >100 icons on 5 screens. Don't know how ADW will behave with that many. And I like many icons on bottom dock that Zeam allows.
What is the recommended fast launcher for CM7 with configurable dock?
I just remove the battery to put another one and when I turned the phone on, I notice that all the widgets dissapear and a game RIPTIDE that I have almost passed dissapear too! Its that normal? Thanks!
If you moved the apps to SDcard (apps2sd / link2sd) then the widgets won't work - they need to be kept in phone memory.

Take a look here:

When I boot the phone, sometimes the icons of the apps stored in the sd don´t appear. I always wait for the exclamation symbol to dissapear when i boot the phone to start doing things. Here is a screenshot:

I want to mention that sometimes randomly all the icons of this apps in the SD appear disordered (all the icons go to the last window of the app windows and only the icons of the apps in the phone mantain his order/position)
Please sony fix this in the next update.
when you reboot or simply boot your phone the apps. stored in sd card take extra time to load.
so you normally get the proper icons after 20-30 seconds........
disordering is the common problem......disorder is common in arc launcher since 2.3.2
you can sort your icon is some other way to avoid the disordering
