Dissapear apps? - Atrix 4G General

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.

Screen Refresh after boot.

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.

Weather Animation Lag

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

CM6 - apps on SD do not auto startup?

Apologies if this has been answered before but I've tried for a few days and can't find the answer. Basically, I have a N1 with the latest stable CM6 release with FAT32 on my sd. If an app is transfered over to sd (app2sd or manage apps), it no longer auto starts up on boot and it may not show up on the widget list (Engadget app, for example). I just wondered if there was a way around this problem? Or do I need to use a ext2 partition for this to work better? Thanks in advance for any suggestions or help.

Apps with widgets and/or background processes shouldn't be put on SD. Widgets can get screwed up a number of ways, exactly how can depend on your launcher (both ADW and Launcher Pro will drop them from the widget list after a reboot). Background stuff either won't start on boot, or will cut out if you plug it in and turn on mass storage mode. Live wallpapers will disappear from your homescreen, and you'll have to go back into the menu and reapply it.
Indeed, don't put anything on SD for which you require a widget or uninterrupted operation when SD is not mounted.
As for just plain apps, I find that it takes 30-60 seconds after boot appears to have completed, for my SD apps to start functioning and for their icons to appear properly in ADWLauncher.

Problems with the "apps in SD card" icons 4.0.1.A.0.283

Take a look here:
http://talk.sonyericsson.com/message/113091#113091
When I boot the phone, sometimes the icons of the apps stored in the sd donĀ“t appear. I always wait for the exclamation symbol to dissapear when i boot the phone to start doing things. Here is a screenshot:
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/262/screenshot201110031010.png/
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

Samsung S4 slower than S3 - Lagging issues

I'm experiencing some serious lag with my Bell Mobility samsung s4 at times. For example:
- sometimes when I go to open the phone application, the screen will go black for literally 2-3 seconds before the phone screen will actually appear, same applies to gallery, contacts, messaging
- when I open my folders the animation of the app icon scatterings out is sometimes very choppy and slow to load as well
- on the lock screen, the time sometimes lags for about 2-3 seconds before updating to the most recent time
I'm actually running less apps than I did on my S3, I only have one page with no widgets on it other than a HTC sense clock widget, I've also got a 16gb expandable sd card in their. I have most of the functions off with the exception of air view, aire gesture and power saving.
Anyone have any ideas as to why my s4 is running so slow?

Well its should not create this much of issue try finding if any partticular app is causing any issue
1,
U can try clearing all apps from task manger and also clear ram and reboot most issue should be solved
2,
check if there is any update on ur cell from about device - software update
3, if nothing works try a factory reset completly
I also had those shamy lags, and then I installed Nova Launcher... Amazing how Samsung can cripple such a powerful device with such a crappy interface !
