[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] klbjr:
I don't think its the RAM. Actually I know it isn't. I've had the G1, Hero, Moment, OG Evo, Epic, Evo 3D & E4GT. That's 7 different Android phones, 4 of which are HTC, all had either less or same amount of RAM and none of them suffered from this problem. HTC even admitted that they intentionally screwed up the multitasking. Now I'm not doubting that more RAM wouldn't be awesome because the GSIII has absolutely no lag whatsoever that I can tell from playing with it and it mutitasks correctly like every Android phone up until the One Series did, but the lag & screwed up multitasking lies squarely at the feet of HTC and this new Sense 4. Wish they could port a older version of Sense cause 4 SUCKS!!!

Sense is garbage, and always has been. It may look pretty but it's sluggish and broken half the time. The build quality of the Evo LTE sold me, but if I couldn't root and install a custom ROM from day one (running MeanROM with Apex launcher), you couldn't pay me to use this phone.

The stock Sense 4 rom with broken multi-tasking, laggy UI, lack of settings and broken notifications, I wonder how the phone made it to market.

If not for XDA, I'd probably hate Sense.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] davidsj656:
I will try it if it ever becomes available but I always see myself going back to sense. hopefully sense will smooth itself out with project buttery goodness :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] str8upx:
I know sense 4 is the problem but if the phone had more ram the lag wouldn't be a problem. The multitasking is a completely different issue and it can be fixed with an update (if enough people ***** about it). I love my evo 3d and if there was a 100% working port of sense 3.6 I wouldn't think twice about flashing it.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] str8upx:
I have to ask all you guys that say sense sucks, why would you buy an htc phone? Samsung's flagship devices almost always has better specs then htc's. Not to mention htc's brick like form factor so many people despise. The only other selling points like Beats, 3D, 4G, Sense widgets, etc are all lost when you put asop on it. What other possible motivation does one have to go with the htc brand?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
Then don't buy HTC.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
Also I wouldn't drop sense 4. I'd use bootmanager and run aosp and miui off my SD card
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] whitenickcannon:
Yes in a heartbeat. However one week later I may be rocking another Sense rom. That freedom is the basis for my infatuation with Android. For me more options = more fun.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 18th.abn:
Just a tip for anyone having lag problems, based from sense 4. Open up >settings>developer options, scroll down and tick the Force 2D gpu rendering box to turn on the feature and it may help with lag issues. Also, check your task manager app that's built in. It's great at freeing up some ram and killing idles unused in the backgroung. Hope this helps u guys a little:D

Have you gotten Boot Manager to work on this device? I tried, and I could not get a ROM installed on internal storage to boot.

P.S. Sorry for the off-topic :eek:

No:( I saw your posts in the bootmanager thread on their website lol I was the one who posted the cmd screenshot of all the partition info:)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] klbjr:
I never said Sense sucks. Just this version of it. I for one love HTC phones. Always have. But I also usually buy and walk around with the Samsung equivalent. So I always have had a constant comparison and have always chosen Sense over TW and all the other launchers, except this time. HTC really screwed the pooch with Sense 4.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] harvickgm:
i have never liked the way any AOSP rom has looked, so if you dont like Sense then why buy a Sense phone.. that has puzzled me for years.. i have gotten so use to the way Sense looks that most else drives me nuts for some reason.. but i am willing to try pretty much anything, hell my OG Evo probably had over 200+ flashes on it.. she got abused lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Wakawaka024:
I also hate sense, but I only buy HTC phones. I buy for the hardware not the software thats what Roms are for. I'll never buy a sammy again, I owned the almighty moment.... Nuff said
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PsiPhiDan:
Better camera, better battery life, better build quality, no stupid hard home button, better looking phone, I loved the development of my last HTC phone, and I heard Sense 4 was light and unobtrusive. Plus, I knew AOSP would only be a few months away. It's a pretty easy choice actually.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gevoxda:
Yes, I am actually just waiting for AOSP.

I had a Galaxy Nexus but the radios didn't work well where I live (1 bar in my house/work) and dropped calls, but the EVO LTE gets max signal.

I would have much rather kept the nexus and AOSP.

Plus the EVO LTE's screen is just... unbelievable.

I can't give up Image Sense so no thank you.I'll stick to Sense with Nova Launcher running on top of it.

[HTC Wildfire S] hardav:
Hi All

I have a frustrating problem with my stock standard s-on wilfire S, it is hard to switch on but when it does the phone goes through all the screens to unlock then shuts off and goes back to the green HTC screen and starts all over again. It will sometimes power into the settings screen (I have reset to factory) but after a short time powers down.The phone goes into vibrate sometimes continuous with orange flashing led when connected to charger. Any thoughts. If it is a software problem can I reload the stock rom from the sd card.

Any help would be appreciated.
[HTC Wildfire S] Thrawed:
Hi dave, that sounds like a hardware issue, perhaps you should RMA it.
[HTC Wildfire S] hardav:
RMA that does not sound good
[HTC Wildfire S] Thrawed:
Return merchandise authorization.
[HTC Wildfire S] hardav:
Problem is no warranty, so it looks like I will have to round bin it as cost of repair will probably be more than the phones worth.

Thanks for your help

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Tunderpimp:
I notice that a lot of apps run on start up and after I stop them they'll just start again 5 or 10 mins later. I use adv task killer and the stock task manager. Is there an app I can download to manage them better or is there something in settings ive missed.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Task killers, especially automated ones, went out of favor when better memory management came in over the last couple Android releases.

Something like Titanium Backup will let you "freeze" apps/services that you don't think you need and, perhaps more importantly, easily unfreeze them when you realize you really did need them. Root is generally required.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Wodensman:
The more you stop an app, the more it's going to keep trying to run. Don't use task managers. Let your phone do what it wants. When you need the memory to do something, just do it! You're phone will know how to allocate the RAM and freeze tasks. If you want an app to never run, that you can't get rid of, freeze it with Titanium Backup. Be careful with that, though.

Edit: Damn jeff, posted at the same time!

Edit 2: Of course, this would be common knowledge if he would bother to do the basic research I thought most people do when they first get a device. I knew task killers were bad before I even knew about custom roms.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
I use Gemini to stop apps from auto starting when the phone boots up
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Tunderpimp:
The problem is that my phone doesn't allocate. I play a game called peggle and when I run it , it runs really slow and laggy but if I clear all of the processes running in the back ground the game runs fine. I was hoping to get more control over my phone once I rooted it. Don't get me wrong I can flash roms and use Titanium Backup to uninstall the stuff I couldn't. But it feel like thats where it stops. I use gmail and facebook but I only want them to run when I'am using them, kinda like my computer. But we can't alway get what we want.

P.S sorry I couldn't find the sticky on why task managers are bad to use, finding stickys on this site is sometimes like trying to find a pirate's buried gold
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
I'll admit that there is a lot of "old" information out there on task killers and things like Juice Defender. It can be pretty confusing. It took me a good year before I realized that the Android world had changed from the times of those posts and reviews. Basically, as I understand it, prior to Froyo, memory management was pretty poor in Android. Task killers were a "user-land" way of making up for OS-level deficiencies. Froyo and certainly GB have much better memory management, making task killers more of a source of system instability than the benefit they once were.

There isn't a good way to be able to say "I don't want this, that, and the next service to not be running while I'm running this game/app." Those things are running services generally because they need to stay in contact with the mother ship to do something you want, like keeping abreast of changes, or sometimes something you don't want, like tracking your surfing habits or location. A service also runs when the app needs to keep track of or respond to something else happening on your phone, like battery/bandwidth monitoring tools, or notifiers of various sorts. A well-designed app will try to restart its services when it detects they have stopped.

You might be able to freeze things with TiBackup or the like, kill the services, play the game, unfreeze, then continue. I've never tried anything that fancy. I seem to recall that TiBackup could use the tagging from Apps Organizer to select things for batch operations, but I haven't tried it myself.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] adobrakic:
+1 to this. I've tried everything from killing apps to freezing them. I finally stuck with using Gemini to stop apps from auto-opening. Apps such as Maps, DSP Settings, etc. This allows you to stop the apps from turning on until you turn them on.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
To add to what jeff said, another thing even if it says facebook is running it might not be. But it could be a service that facebook borrows from android so you dont need fifteen instances of gps running simultaneously. Instead android gps is used by fifteen different apps. And if it happens to turn on to update your locations facebook thinks it needs to also update so if you want to tell you friends your at the local brothel automagically you can.

That is why it appears when you kill a process and 10 seconds later it is started back up. Something is using it for some reason.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Warrenforfree:
Maybe you can try this one.. https://play.google.com/store/apps/...vbS5lbHNkb2VyZmVyLmFuZHJvaWQuYXV0b3N0YXJ0cyJd... i've been using it and it works great for me..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Tunderpimp:
Thanks! I flashed a new rom hoping it would use less system rescources. I use valhalla final , before valhalla my system used around 225megs sysyem ram after it droped to around 186. then I unistall some stuff i didnt use that came with it and it got to around 178. Now peggle plays fine. but when I kill apps running in the background the system only uses 156megs. then my emulators run fine. It drives me nuts when programs run rampant. They should only run when I use them, like my computer. My gf reminded me that its just a phone and maybe iam asking too much
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Glad you are up and going! If you like Valhalla Final, you might want to try FB's trimmed-down version of Raver's Valhalla Black. It comes with one of AntonX's kernels and is a little snappier and leaner version than the "Valhalla Final" version, in my opinion. You can try later versions of AntonX's kernels as well. (Links for both in my sig).

Your phone is a computer. It's just that Windows is a lot better at "hiding" all the crap that is running in the background!

I have a Rogers Wireless (Canada) Galaxy Nexus,

and about 2 hours ago, it would refuse to send out any text messages. Everytime I send a text, it just says "text not sent". I can make calls fine, and use internet and data fine as well. I tried taking the battery out and restarting, but that doesn't work either.

Can anyone help resolve the problem?
