Everytime I reboot my icons change to the green uploading icons and not to the normal ones. I have to manually remove them and add them again. Another thing i've notices is once in a while distorted horizontal lines appear across some apps. They will not go away most of the time unless I reboot.?:confused:
[HTC Sensation] bonebeatz1234:
Sometimes my widgets get colored lines in it and i have to reboot to. My.contacts app disappear and turn into to people app all on its on til i reboot. Hope they fix these issues but no updates in site tmobile and phone companies have bad service.
[HTC Sensation] jmazz3:
I have the same problem but it only happens with a few specific games every time. It's annoying but I've just stopped fixing it and leave them as the android icon.
[HTC Sensation] Neville.Holland:
Mine was doing this for SD installed apps... Solved in the last update however...

Change the theme and back to restore the icons... marginally better than deleting and re-adding
[HTC Sensation] Warhero141:
You could also change the language, go to the main page, change the language back to what is was and it'll solve the problem.
[HTC Sensation] Mainspring:
move the apps that are loosing it's icons from sd to internal memory.

few of my games were doing this on reboot.

soon as I moved them to internal, no more problems.

kinda sucks that we can't take advantage of app2sd feature that comes with some of apps but until we get an update that fixes this bug, this is the only sure way I've found.
[HTC Sensation] jmazz3:
Yep, that fixed it after a restart. Why do some games install on the phone and some on SD? There doesn't seem to be any consistency.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
I don't think apps install on the SD unless specified. As for the icons changing on reboot. This has been a problem on Android since apps to SD was implemented.
[HTC Sensation] cyrarchy:
Guys try going to settings then manage applications then all then click on HTC sense and force stop it.

HTC sense will reload and your icons will return .This works for me hope it does for you
[HTC Sensation] kru20o1:
I'm having the same problem as well with my game icons.

That worked, Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] knagl:
My Facebook app on my main screen does the same thing -- I do have it moved to the SD card. Randomly the correct icon/logo appears on it, but most of the time it's the generic Android icon. I've learned to live with it -- maybe they'll fix it someday. :cool:
[HTC Sensation] waydavis:
My icons return after a reboot, when I turn the phone off/on.

Got a 5 min wait for new user to post...
[HTC Sensation] rswett:
I tried this and it didn't work, until I realized that there were two Sense applications running and I killed the wrong one...D'oh!
[HTC Sensation] sampacool:
I tried to force stop HTC sense and dashboard.... none of this worked.

So I tried changing the theme and IT WORKED!!!! When I restored my previous theme, all the icons went back to normal.

This the easiest non-frustrating method. From time to time, my phone crashes and restarts by itself and all my icons would change.
[HTC Sensation] steve841:
Has anyone tried using Rom Manager and run "fix permissions" with any luck?
[HTC Sensation] Kupfel:
It is not a permissions issue. It is quite simple.. the desktop icons are loaded before the sd card is mounted and accessible so it can't load the icons and won't retry later. Causing sense to reload in any way after the SD card is mounted will reload the icons. Changing themes works. Killing sense to force a reload works. Using titanium backup to freeze/unfreeze any of the sense Widgets works. I'm sure there are plenty more ways of making sense reload :)

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamie.Desire.HD:
Hi, and thanks in advance for anyone who can help.

I have a desire hd phone, witch I love anyways I had it rooted a few months ago by a local phone shop, but I didn’t really see the benefit from it, in fact it caused problems so I performed a full factory reset within a few days, and thought that was the end of it.

Anyways my phone received the option to update to the 2.3 gingerbread on Monday, it downloads fine, and then when the install starts it freezes at about 20% of the way thorough.

I have contacted HTC several times about it, they say the phone will not update if it’s been rooted and I have to send it back to them to have it re-flashed, one person said it would cost £30, another said £200 so I would rather not send it to them. the last guy I spoke to was very helpful, he said it was possible for me to reflash the phone to its original ''shipped'' state, and if I joined a help forum I could possibly get some help, but he was unable to advise me on this., so here I am!!!

I received the phone new in January and it has had no updates until the one on Moday, and it was rooted using visionary a few months ago, I have performed several factory restores since then.

Current software is:

android version 2.2

baseband version 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26_m

build number 1.37.771.3 CL290190

software number 1.37.771.3

im in the uk, and on the 3 network

Many thanks,

Jamie
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doktaphex:
Hey dude, this link should help. I'm currently downloading it so that I can help you further when you get it also.

I would think twice about reverting everything back to stock though. You are now in the right place, the shop you went to, to get your phone rooted was the wrong place! :D We are a friendly bunch for the most part so do some reading in the desire HD general section and you'll find some nice ROMs that are close to stock firmware but perform better. If they're not for you then feel free to flash the official ROM from your provider that I have linked to above.

Oh yeah, Welcome to XDA! :D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamie.Desire.HD:
Thanks for that, How do i go about installing it, and will it completely revert the phone back to its original state so i can use the ota update and get the 2.3 gingerbread?

And thanks again for your help :):):)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doktaphex:
Damnit, what I've linked to is actually someones backup of a stock 3 ROM so it won't be quite back to factory fresh. Let me do some digging, I'll be back.

EDIT: What exactly did the shop do, other than use visionary? You could try AMT tools from here and query the device info, that should at least let us know what they have and haven't done to the phone. I suspect that they have set a super CID hence why the update won't go through. Try AMT and report back.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamie.Desire.HD:
Thankyou very much your help is appreciated.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamie.Desire.HD:
Should i try the link you posted earlier??
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doktaphex:
Just use AMT tools that I linked to above in one of my edits and check the CID, If it is just the CID that has been altered, then you can use this tool to reflash a 3UK CID which is H3G__001
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamie.Desire.HD:
when i use AMT it says AMT is designed for use with Desire HD and Dsire z / G2 ONLY But i have a desire HD ????
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doktaphex:
Strange, is there an option to click OK or ignore?

EDIT: Weird, I just booted into windows and I get the same thing with AMT tools. Now I'm really confused. Try using the other tool that I linked to and see what that displays.

EDIT 2: Just had a thought. Pull your battery then put it back in. Hold 'down' on the volume rocker then press the power button. Your phone should start in the bootloader and we should be able to get some more info. Once you've done this, list everything that it says in the bootloader screen.

Sorry, my brain is a bit slow today for some reason.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamie.Desire.HD:
Ok ill do that now, i have also just rooted my phone again using visionary (i followed the link in your earlier message. so its rooted again now. cant believe i paid £20-00 to have that done, it took me less than 5 minutes to do it :(

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doktaphex:
OK, so it would seem as though all they did was root it and leave most things intact, I think they must have changed your CID though probably using the jkoljo's radio S-OFF tool.

Run that tool and try to change your CID to whatever it was that I said before H3G__001 I think it was, or you could equally use that tool to get radio s-off super-CID and sim-unlock, then install ROM manager from the market, flash Clockwork Mod Recovery and then flash a custom ROM after making a backup of course.

The world is your lobster at this point and flashing new ROMs can be fun. I might have to re-flash my current ROM myself as I think I've screwed something up with it from messing around too much earlier today :D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamie.Desire.HD:
i dont understand the open "Desire HD easy radio tool.exe'' where is that??

Please remember i am a complete noob when it comes to this, lol

i had to download the visionary app using my phone as my laptop kept saying it had a virus.

i have downloaded the premium rom manager app, can you recomend and good roms, or where i can get a list of them? also could you explain in noob terms how to change my phone so i can get the 2.3 update? the cid bit!!!

Thank you, you have been very helpfull.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doktaphex:
I'm gonna point you to this thread as it has everything you could possibly want or need to know in it. There is a link there to a thread all about how to flash a ROM, what tools you need on your PC etc..

With regards to how to get 2.3 onto your phone pretty much every ROM you'll find in the DEV section is based on 2.3. That thread I've linked also has links to pretty much every ROM currently available for the DHD and everything is explained far better than I would be able to explain things.

The tool to get Super-CID, which really only helps when it comes to flashing Radio's (which is something I would avoid until you've found your feet a little, however it's worth doing now, as it is simple and relatively worry free) is at the bottom of this post.

Happy reading and just remember that as long as you read all the instructions for something before starting it and you feel comfortable with what the instructions are explaining, then you will succeed with your end goal.

I have downloaded this, but i have no idea how to use it! i extracted the files to my desktop, it has a few different applications in there, one says start here but when i open it a command prompt comes up on my pc screen, i dont know where to go from there :(
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doktaphex:
You should extract them into one folder, then from there you should be able to double click the only thing that looks like a program icon. If nothing is happening it would suggest that you need to update your .NET framework. Do that by running windows update or going here.

Honestly....... the best thing to do would be to go here and read the basic setup bit so that your PC is ready for everything, and then read the rest of that little guide and it should hold your hand through the whole process.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamie.Desire.HD:
im going to attempt a custom rom form the link you gave me (everything desire hd) do you have any recomendations??
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doktaphex:
Cyanogenmod is interesting as it more like stock Android, MIUI is similar to iOS and then you have the sense ROMs with tweaks and whatnot. Have a look at the options available in the screenshots and see what you like the look of, it's a very subjective thing as some like one thing and others like something else.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamie.Desire.HD:
the link you gave me for the rado code was missing the important bit!

i managed to find it somewhere else

http://igyaan.in/2011/01/how-to-root-htc-desire-hd-included-downgrade-from-1-72-405-3-to-1-32/

have a look at the link you gave me, it is missing the main programme.

do you have to go through the root procedure every time you use the radio tool, or will it work every time after the phone is rooted. the reason i ask is that i just tried to do it and it said ''operation failed, probably connection'' ill try it again now
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doktaphex:
It usually fails the first time, I don't know why. After a reboot it worked for me, keep your phone screen on though as the package will request superuser permission.

That link is definitely not missing anything as I've downloaded and run it from that link several times, but maybe your download got corrupted.

Glad all seems well now anyway.

when i attempted to use it i get an error message saying bootloader corrupt DO NOT REBOOT please contact xda??

Any ideas what that means??
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doktaphex:
Sounds like you're trying to do HBoot S-Off, just try again, and make sure to keep the screen on and accept any Super User requests.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamie.Desire.HD:
i just tried it again without ticking the radio off box clicked and it worked.

im getting there slowly, my brain is fried, this is all hard work, lol.

[Galaxy 3 General] Rapier07:
Check out the last post of the mentioned thread ...

M sure this will end in the same way!
[Galaxy 3 General] hillbeast:
It should become a rule on XDA that developers are not allowed to use a benchmark to show how great their firmware is because benchmarks really do mean nothing. I remember using a ROM ages ago that got a massive score in Quadrant, and now I can't even beat the most basic phone in the list on Quadrant. Is my phone slower now than it was then? No. It's faster now.

Developers should provide a video of the firmware working, not a picture of a benchmark: that's what I reckon should be a rule.

but since you brought it up it can be done with any file explorer that can mount /system. as well as adb.

You can actually uninstal Sprint wallet, radio, NASCAR, and blockbuster without temp root.
[HTC EVO 3D] wormyMNT:
Dude, I know that. But all the ones I've seen like(root explorer) cost money, and I was lookin for apps that r free that work with the temp root.. I also was trying to help other ppl out too. Everyone knows that if u have the temp root and do something to ur phone and then restart, it will go away and u have to do it again. That's why its a temp root. Don't try to be a smart ass, if u don't have anything useful to say to help others, don't reply
[HTC EVO 3D] wormyMNT:
Ur welcome
[HTC EVO 3D] wormyMNT:
Really? How? Cuz I couldn't find out how, u can't do it thro the market even tho that's where they r
[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
Correct.

So they are just frozen.

They still take up exactly the same amount of space on your emmc.

Unless they are system hogs, and run in the background, DAE know what the point of 'uninstalling' these might be?

Unless you just don't like to see the icons, I just don't see the point..

I want to install CM7 on my ntelos Milestone X . I havent rooted it yet, but I'm sure it wont be a problem, I just want to know if CM7 will run on it and anything i might have to do to make it work. CM7=sweetness!

Links to d/l the proper version/software would be helpful, but beggers can't be choosers! lol

Also I read somewhere if you install cm7, it will change the network from ntelos to verizon, that would be a huge problem, and is there any work-arounds?
[Milestone XT720 General] teruyume:
as title suggested, I have been enjoying the MIUIXT, it is the most reponsive n stable rom out of all other I have used, including, Dexter 1.3 + bugfix v3, CBW 2.2, wanhu, 2.1 Strikes back

the problem is I hate the Setting Menu, Option Menu, Lock Screen so much, does anyone how have them back to Stock Android ?

or is there other rom has the same Stability and Speed ??
[Milestone XT720 General] syrenz:
After a lot of testing the only one that has the same speed (if not faster) is eclair strikes back imo. Unfortunately it has stability issues sometimes (freezes fairly often). I'm on it right now.

I've used every ROM including WanHu and Khal WanHu.
[Milestone XT720 General] eejin2:
v4

you can try khals v4 rom. its good with a little overclocking and also has a LOT of free ram. didnt bother using swap. very responsive for me and very few FCs too. the most stable rom. its as good as, if not better than miui on my phone. :D
[Milestone XT720 General] Vistaus:
WanHu is just as speedy :)
[Milestone XT720 General] 3rdstring:
I'd agree with that. I find Wanhu's to be very responsive + the FM Radio volume works, the Media key works & magnification during cursor positioning works. Personally the MIUI Lock screen & responsiveness are the only things I really liked about MIUI.
[Milestone XT720 General] jjackichan:
You can change menu in setting to get the android style, use other launcher and custom your lock screen. It will be fine.

But i think you should try Wanhu.
[Milestone XT720 General] syrenz:
lol, guess I need to move back to froyo: http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/2011/07/new-android-market-for-phones-with.html

You know what I find it hilarious? People talk about fragmentation in android a lot, but the only apps/things that are froyo+ exclusive that I want are google ones (new market, music, youtube, gmail). Google is the one who is making everything fragmented for me lol.
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
Bingo. I couldn't care less about flash. I found the lack of animated .gif more annoying than lack of flash. ;)
[Milestone XT720 General] syrenz:
Yeah, right after I first installed 2.2 I immediately installed flash because that's what everyone talks about for 2.2. I uninstalled it a few minutes later, wondering what use I have for it on my phone (only slows things down).

Anyways I guess I'm gonna put MIUI on again. WanHu and Khal's ROM are good, but for some reason don't play nice with my fav app SPB shell 3D and MIUI seems a bit faster I think. Just don't like all the IOSy stuff, but what can you do... Bah, I wish someone would get some progress with CM7 already. Wish there was a way to get a bunch of experienced devs to just port it easily lol.
[Milestone XT720 General] alexhks:
i'm back to MIUI from WanHu, MIUI runs more smooth and faster. My apps run all fine on MIUI.
[Milestone XT720 General] chandanbs:

i also reverted to khals miui final v2 from wanhu.... i think in terms of customization and user interface and feature rich ui... this is the best... hope oyang releases an english rom with latest miui base pack....!
