Wondered if any one has had this problem.
When i launch the contacts app from the contacts side of the cube
not only does the contacts app open but several of my system folders open
at the same time...
For example... i bring up the cube, press the contacts app and the comm
manager, settings folder, programs folder and activesync all open at the same time. I close out the contacts app and then i have to close out all the other apps as well.
It's getting frustrating... i've done a hard reset to test this out and before i install or do any thing to my device i try to launch it and it happens again...
I thought was because of a tweak but am seeing that this is not the problem..
Any insight to this problem.. fix.. any one else have this ... please
post a thought...
I've tried to look in the registry to see where the app launches but can't find it... i'm frustrated
Thanks...

No theories....
What ROM are you running? That's not normal behavior.
You might want to try flashing the stock ROM.
That's just it... it is the stock rom...
I've always been afraid to flash a new Rom
that wasn't official...
Got it brand new...
It's frustrating... wondered if any thing in the Registry
would fix this...
Can't seem to find the reg entry for the quicklauncher
contacts only part... all i find in the registry is the 9
configurable choices...

I'd take it in to a store and show them what's going on. Back up your info first, though. They may be able to help you, or they may order you a new phone.
Upgraded to new 3.35 ROM.
Installed HTC Home, Home customizer, Pocket mechanic, Google maps, Memmaid, and then a few games.
When I go to Settings > System > Backlight, I can't adjust either of the settings for Brightness (on battery power, on external power). Both are 'stuck' all the way to the left.
Another interesting thing on Brightness. After installing the HTC Home, it has a button on the launcher tab set for 'Brightness' That doesn't work anymore either.
Anyone else seeing this?
reinstalled ROM. Working now. I'll test after each program install to see if it was a specific app that causes it.
Pretty sure it's HTC Home causing it. I've had similar issues. I need to look around at the different versions of Home, maybe one of them has it working correctly.

Which version are you using..try the 2.1 hermes for Home and v1.0 for the customizer that is the latest and greatest.
Thanks for the tip. I hate trying to track down latest versions of everything.
Could be HTC home. I don't remember which I installed before the ROM reinstall. But this time I installed a version I have that is called 'Schen 2.1 with N2A weatherpatch'
I had this same problem, oddly enough, after installing Nadavi Task Manager 2.0.31261.1. Uninstalling it didn't work and now I'm spellunking looking for a fix.
My Backlight adjustment wasn't working as well after I upgraded the ROM and reinstalled a bunch of stuff. After reading this thread I uninstalled the copy of HTC Home and voila, brightness adjustment works again.
The version of HTC home that futzes up the Brightness adjustment on the TITAN that I installed was: JUVS HTC Home.v2_1_1005722_s0.zip
I got this from the "All Extracted HTC Apps" Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=344533
Thanks for the tip, else I'd ended uninstalling things left and right to figure out what caused the problem.
PS I probably won't be reloading another version of HTC Home... it's quite a memory hog.
Hey guys, I appreciate all the work you have done on the manilla app. I am having a couple of issues though and am wondering if anyone knows what I can do. Everything was working perfectly on my i760, but all of a sudden I can no longer add contacts to the contacts screen, programs to the program screen, and if I hit the Sync Data, Wallpaper, Sounds or about buttons on the settings tab nothing happens either. I really would like this to work out since I loved using it for a few days while it was working, but now I can't do things that are essential to this app. I realize this is a beta, but is there anything that you guys may know of that I can do to get this back up and running correctly? Thanks in advance guys.
same experience
I have had the same experience running m2d on a iphone clone wm6 device (m88) ......lost count of the number of times I have wiped it all and started fresh : but ive got about 85% of this thing working .......what is essential is to go one step at a time......reset between each step ......even when you load m2d and the md2 patch for non htc devices (even though I read somewhere to load the two contiguously) ....then 1 app at a time ......still cant get the audiomanager to work or the photo/ camera app .....just renoved them with the m2dconfig app ......
I tried this many times and got into the "loaded one too many apps mode" ...things stopped working and I had to start fresh again .......be patient

Yes, I have the same problem. Also want to organize icons in seperate windows but sometimes they move.
Same problem on JPA and JPO (not sure if I had this on JM1)
EDIT: It seems to also happen when I install new applications, don't even have to reboot to see the problem.
same problem here

Do you by any chance use the customized TWLauncher (tgt)?

nope ootb official android on galaxy s with the app "apps organizer"
Just for info are these the apps which are on the SD card? If yes, then move these to phone. Just a shot in the dark. Thought it might work.

Hi,
having the exact same problem as described. Tried different versions of Darky's ROM, currently running on 9.3. Extreme. But also experienced on 9.2. Can't remember if it occured on preinstalled Samsung Froyo.
Isn't there really any solution to this ? It's really annoying not to have an option to sort your icons when they keeps messing up after reboot.
What ROMs are you having, guys ?

Looks like lots of things can move your icons update of apps can shift stuff around .
But if you are not updating> factory resetting etc then the apps should stay where they are on a stock rom after a reboot .

Solution
Guys, this issue has a relatively simple solution, the problem is with your touchwiz not saving correctly setting, do the following:
Go to Settings > Applications > All
In here, go find TwLauncher and click it, DON'T click force stop now just click the "clear data" button.
After this, your icons will mess around again, ordered alphabetically, just restart phone.
That should do it, next time you organize your apps they should stay where you left them.
I hope it help you guys, cheers!
EDIT:
If the above wasn't enough (in most cases it should), you can try to get Root Explorer and go to:
/dbdata/databases/
find the com.sec.android.app.twlauncher folder and delete it.
This is harmless, but it will again order alphabetically your apps, this folder will be restored again on next boot, so restart phone after.

Clearing the data worked for me! Thank you very much!

I had the problem, changed ROM and solved.
Hello guys,
I have a P1010 with Gingerbread 2.3.6 and have the newest official skypeversion installed. Unfortunately the video-chat still doesn't work. I have found several versions here on the forum but I'm still not sure which one to install. Can someone help me here? Is it safe to uninstall my current skypeversion?
Thx in advance for your help!
I finally got it working after searching and working out that there are several builds of signedcom.skype.raider_2.1.0.46 floating around and not all of them work! In fact the Advanced Settings section varied wildly between them.
The one that I used with success was Build v11 at www.multiupload.co.uk/6WEIZZGTX7.
In Advanced Settings, I had to set the following:
Force-enable video-calling > ON
Avoid setFPS > ON
Use valid preview surface > ON
Then you will have to tweak Rotation in Advanced Settings>Front Camera (270) to get your face to appear in the correct orientation if using portrait.
I'm sure some other combinations and versions will work too but this is what has worked for me.
Hope it helps
Thx for your help mate . Do you by any chance know if its safe to uninstall skype. With Froyo I had the problem that I couldn't install Skype after I uninstalled it because there was some residual file (which could only be removed by rooting the tab).
I didn't have any residual file problems and I must have installed 4 or 5 different versions.
Give it a go.

Where can I find Advanced Settings? The app seems to have vanished from the Market Place.
You need to uninstall the Market version of Skype and download the one I linked to above.
Next install this version and sign in.
Now you can use the Menu button and you'll see Advanced settings as one of the menu items.
You don't need anything from the Market.
Its works! Thank you so much! Wouldn't have thought it would finally work ^_^.
Sadly with multiupload down and the multiple builds of signedcom.skype.raider_2.1.0.46 out there as you mentioned I am having trouble tracking down the exact build you used. Does anyone have a working link for the version japester36 is talking about? Would love to get this working.
I've uploaded signedcom.skype.raider_2.1.0.46 Build 11 to my Dropbox, you can get it from here.
Hope it helps.

It does the same for me. I'll play with some settings, but not too much. I can't believe it works!
