My sisters evo shift restarts EVERY app - EVO Shift 4G General

Okay, so I'm a rooted evo user and my sister has a unrooted shift. I understand that this is a known problem but I haven't found any real solution to it. Whenever she goes from one app another, the app before gets closed. So if she went back to that app it'd restart(whether it'd be HTC sense or a game she went back to after replying to a text)
This kind of angers me because I'm pretty much a android fan boy and I dont like the fact that my sisters getting the wrong impression of android; she wants to go back to blackberry. Any one have a clear cut solution?

Did she do the latest sense update? It fixes a lot of the bugs from the new update

I was having the same problem then I did a force software update and that fixed almost all of the sense restarts. I had a couple of apps that would still restarted so i went in and cleared the cache and that fixed those apps. setting > applications > manage applications > scroll to apps still FC and select > then hit "clear cache" or just uninstall and then reinstall from market

What ROM is she running? Sense based or not? CM7?

Unrooted shift = Sense

The latest OTA update still does not fix the HTC Sense reloads. I just ended up installing the GO Launcher EX as a replacement launcher.. no sense widgets but no more stupid loading screen

I font know about you but after about a day, Go Launcher seemed to slow down my phone

[Q] home switcher wont stick?

hi, im perm rooted with s=off and a clockwork recovery, when ever i default a launcher with the app "home switcher" it never sticks. i was wondering if anyone else has the same problem
Home switcher says right in the download that it doesn't work with Froyo... however, it does work with some ROMS better than others as I've been playing with on my Evo for about 4 months. Sometimes it acts just like you describe. Sometimes it lets me actually stick with a default. Blame the author... he isn't updating it.
Oh wow thanks I didn't even see that lol but yeah I switched to homeshack and it works!

Never heard of that one and it doesn't come up in market. Where did you get it?
Homesmack** sorry for the typo

Actually, it does work with Froyo even though it says that in the Market (that's probably the official line, so we can't ***** about it). If you read comments & online there are plenty confirmed working w/Froyo.
I had it on my MT4G and it worked fine until I permrooted w/S=OFF. Now any time the phone restarts I have to choose the default launcher again.
So, OP is correct, but since it's officially not supported... Glad you found an alternative.
oops didnt refresh page before posting
Fyi, I've tried Home Manager and it doesn't stick either.
Sent from my ROOTED HTC Glacier using XDA App
Home Switcher has an app made for Froyo (HomeSwitcher for Froyo) I use it and it works very good. There is an added step to take before it sticks but it never fails.
Why do you need a home switcher? Its not hard to change defaults through your settings.

One of our customers had that issue and it turned out his screen was somehow messed up and causing the issues with HTC Sense Fc'ing. Have a tech take a look at it.
I have had this happen to me. First back up your apps using titanium backup then wipe data and then restore the apps. This got rid of my sense fc issue.

default launcher issue

So lately I've been having an issue with any launcher I set as default. I'm rooted S-off running Iced Glacier 1.1.6 and just about every time i push the home button I get asked which launcher I'd like to use, no matter which I set as default...So I wiped cache partition and Dalvik cache and when that didn't work I did a data/factory reset and reinstalled Iced Glacier 1.1.6....any one else come across this?
Thanks in advance
Ditto here, can I push ADW to overwrite the sense launcher? if yes how. This is a real PIA.

Just asking to make sure, but are you selecting the "set as default launcher" checkbox before you make your selection? That box must be ticked for your selection to stick.
Sent from my HTC Glacier
I have selected it. It sometimes holds for a bit but aster using a few apps it starts asking again.
I actually had same issue with my g1 running cyanogen mod when I installed the market version.

Try using an app from the market called home switcher. It makes it easier to switch default launchers and may help locking yours in. Don't know but it's worth a shot.

The other option you have is deleting the launchers that you are not using.
I tried home switcher for froyo. And home smack, still same. I'll try backup, wipe and only install adw tonight, see if that makes a difference.

I be careful though, i don't know what it'll do to the rest of the sense framework since everything is tied together.

Things That I Noticed In the Gingerbread Leak

1. The downloads app shows up in the app drawer.
2. When holding the power button and selecting shut down, the phone is put into hibernate mode. Pressing the power button to turn it back on yields very very short 2 second boot time. Do a battery pull to compare boot times. Option to turn this off is in Setting >> Applications
3. You must do a battery pull, hold down on the volume rocker, and then power to boot up into bootloader mode.
4. The animations are much smoother and different now.
5. When you receive a new message, a green and black number notificiation shows up on the messages icon on the homescreen.
6. The phone has just overall been going quicker.
Let me know if you guys noticed anything else?
Ihtfp69 said there should be an option in the settings to turn on/off "quick boot."

Why run this Rom when cm7s been on gb for months?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
I don't remember the original ROM having a restart option....
The "downloads" app has always been in the apps drawer on every gingerbread rom. Its a cool feature but it's useless unless you use the stock browser, I wish you could use it with any browser.
I tried CM7 a few times and it always ran like crap after about 12-24 hours and I had to take it off. I flashed OMFGB like two days ago and it runs great, except that it doesn't like to display my widgets some times (I'm using ADW EX).
I'm tempted to try out the leak, but I think I'll wait a few days until it gets tweaked more and/or has Sense >=2.0
OP, in regards to your hibernation question. There should be an option somewhere in the settings that allows you to enable/disable Fastboot. It's sort of like a hot restart.
Sent from my HTC Evo 4G
In my experience, this leak has been running much smoother for me than CM and the battery life is better.

some people like sense over ASOP. Gingerbread and sense seems like a good combination to me
well, i noticed everything you did but one other also... NETFLIX ISNT WORKING!!!! is there any way to fix this? it doesnt seem to work with any sense+gingerbread combos as im running the Kingdom rom and it still doesnt work any ideas?
Touchdown app works, the license app doesn't which sucks, no Netflix...
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
The leak has been great for me! Runs so much better than froyo did. Really smooth animations, and I like the fast boot option
Anyone else's Swype not working with the leak? That sucks. It does run well but I can't wait for the developers to get to work on it, and why no Sense 2.0?
sloow
I wish I knew why gingerbread/sense 3.0 is running so slow for me, Im killing off
Apps but I can barley squeeze out 100mb free memory...could this be a kernel
Holdup?
netflix seems to be having issues with other devices as well.
Something that I noticed is in froyo when I am in the messaging app and the screen times out I don't recieve notifications but I do with the update. Not sure if this is a setting I missed in 2.2 but either way I'm glad it works now.
FYI I use the stock messaging app and realize if I used Handcent it would not have been an issue but I prefer the stock app.
anyone else having an issue with Google Talk not working? It force-closes every time when trying to launch. Anybody know of a fix? Other than that, loving the Gingerbread experience so far.

V6 supercharger

I was wondering if anyone here was using the v6 supercharger I found on the evo section on the shift?
Sent from my speedy miui with 1.9 of overclocked goodness..
Yes i have used v6 supercharger script and it works very well. Just make sure the rom you are running doesnt already have ram script built in. I cant remember what settings i used, i know i used 12 (bulletproof launcher) and i think it was 3, or 8 but im not sure. I run mikshiftedG and the latest update has juwe11's ramscript built in so not really a need for v6 anymore...
Sent from my PG06100 using Tapatalk
Have used V6 SuperCharger. Don't need it now, but it does work very well . You just have to experiment to find the right settings for your use.
thanks for the input.. im currently using miui 1.8.26 and mainly wanted to test out the turbo 3g
Where do we find this script?
Sent from my MiuiSpeedy
The Script is on the thread for V6 SuperCharger . The installation thread is HERE.
What setting have you guys seen the best results with?
Sent from my MiuiSpeedy
It's been a while, but if I remember right I was running setting #8 . Also, ran #6 for a bit. Liked #8 better, but as I said it's been a while. You should experiment and see what works best for your particular setup.
And what is this exactly for/benefit?

Helps your System better manage the Ram it has. So you can have more Free Ram available at any given time.

It alters the internal ram management settings so its tweaked for your device instead of using the default generic settings. People should be using this and not task killers on android 2.1+.

I was thinking of using this cause i had to get a refurbished phone from sprint and it came with 2.3.3 and im constanttly getting the htc loading screen. If i temp root my phone and run this, will the changes it makes stick after i reboot?

Nope... The script manager app needs root to run. Meaning every reboot you would have to re-temp root your device start script manager and choose your options.

But it still might be worth the effort from what I've seen. Stock unrooted GB Sense reloads constantly .
Agreed

Thanks for the answer, that's what I figured. I've been calling sprint trying to get a different phone cause I love this phone rooted, but without root its terrible. Sense reloads are driving me insane. I use my phone a lot but id have to say I had at least 30 sense reloads yesterday.

You might have to downgrade your busybox... Xda search v6 supercharger and in the thread it will tell you what version of busybox is compatable...
