The dialer also does not connect to an in call dialer. If you get a phone call and exit out of the dialer, you cannot get back to that dialer. When you click your dialer application, it gives you a fresh dialer acting like no one is connected.
[Vibrant General] hockeyrcks9901:
If you pull down on the notification bar, and then press on the green phone icon, it will take you back to your call that is already in progress.
[Vibrant General] murse:
I'm using launcher pro and I've also experienced both of the issues mentioned in the OP. I've been using LP almost since day one, so I can't say whether or not they're LP bugs specifically. The app launching issue I've noticed more with Handcent than any other. On the GPS issue, I don't have any of the "fixes" applied, so it's not that. I'm thinking about reloading a completely stock ROM to see if that might fix it.
[Vibrant General] Mark271:
I understand this, but the dialer application should work. Thanks for the tip though.
[Vibrant General] clivo360:
i like launcher pro, but it makes my vibrant noticeable slower than the tw launcher.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
LP since July 15th... absolutely no issues.

what other things have you done to the phone? Rom? Lag Fix? Etc?
[Vibrant General] murse:
I'm still on the stock rom. No lag fixes, gps fixes, etc. It's rooted, but that's about it.
[Vibrant General] bdveteran18:
I have also had these happen but just with lp. Since the last update I haven't experienced them again. At least for now.
[Vibrant General] kcbboy:
I don't notice any bugs with LP but I mostly use the stock launcher. Just not a fan of the stock android look...

I do notice one bug in ADW launcher though which I use from time to time and that's the scrolling of the home screens. Sometimes I'll try to flick to the next screen and all it'll do is bounce and stay on the same screen. I had this some problem on the mytouch slide so I know it's not a vibrant issue.
[Vibrant General] guruleenyc:
YES! I AM EXPERIENCE CONTINUOUS REBOOTS!

My Epic 2.1.1 rooted with 'one-click' method seemed fine for a day. But once I installed LauncherPro, the device stared to reboot continously every 30sec.

I had to go into recovery mode and wipe/factory reset!

Any ideas?
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
^ did you try and install a system app? Only way I can see that possible... would have absolutely nothing to do with LP.
[Vibrant General] DaSmittyman:
My launcher pro is working great. I bought the pro version though, thought I might add that launcher was updated today the 3rd.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
Yeah, I am LOVING the new twitter widget.. only going to get better.
[Vibrant General] j0hnZ:
I've had no problems with LP, but I have with ADW. When opening the tray it keeps, for the lack of better words rebooting the tray. It will show the zoom in effect like 3-5 times before it loads the tray.
[Vibrant General] guruleenyc:
My phone is rebooting every 30sec once again! DAMN!

After the first bout, I re-rooted using one-click method, installed supseruser and titaniumbackup, then proceeded to restore all new app+data...

I stayed away from LP, but I went with ADW.Launcher. As far as system apps, I dont believe I installed anything like this; what would be an example of a system app?

I was good for one day, and then this morning, it seemed fine but the batt was very low. After plugging in the charger.... a few min later, this reboot cycle began!

I am on my 3rd recovery wipe/factory reset now.

Anyone else experience this or have recommendations?
[Vibrant General] sl0play:
I have a bug where it doesn't size live wallpapers properly when changing to landscape mode and the keeps the off size when rotating back to portrait. A dealbreaker for me since I love my lw's

Yeah me either
[Vibrant General] p()()pypants:
Do a manual root, forget the one click thing your doing, I wouldn't touch anything that I couldn't have control of every step along the way...

What roms and other mods are you installing?

Pooped from my Samsung Vibrant using XDA app... Dont mind the skidmarks...
[Vibrant General] SugarMouth:
I notice an outline on the icons that is not there with the TW launcher or even ADW. I can't live with it and un-installed Launcher Pro.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xmRipper:
Hello,

I'm looking for a g-sensor disabled kernel.

Kernel developers, please make a gsensor disabled kernel, i don't need it, i don't use it.

It causes screen freezing.

To prove it, you can download this sensors application.

http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.julian.apps.Sensors

Run it and rotate/shake/etc. your HD2 rapidly. Screen will freeze and sensor graph on app will stop.

-----------------------

Edit:

Shadiku has released a g-sensor disabled kernel:

The freeze problem has totally gone, but of course g-sensor does not work.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hoss_n2:
why not to wish for a fixed kernal istead of removing the option from the device , many of us is using the g sensor
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xmRipper:
I mean it should be disabled until it is fixed -_-'
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rbadal:
You can disbale it urself right? Just put auto rotate off.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xmRipper:
Disabling auto-rotate won't disable the g-sensor.

It won't solve the screen freeze problem.

I want g-sensor driver totaly disabled.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fi3ry_icy:
if it is disabled, no1 can test it so how will the devs know they have got it working?

unless u intend for the devs to keep trying it themselves with no help from fellow hd2 users... :-/
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xmRipper:
I can reproduce the problem easily just in a second.

This is enough to solve the problem for developers. They couldn't expect any more information from us about this issue.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fi3ry_icy:
errm.. so, did u send in a kernel log to the devs?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Crusoe86:
Very nice attitude...

And how should

I

play "Hyper Jump" or "Fall Down"?

Or how should I play "Teeter"???

Maybe you will build me a box of wood, with holes and a marble (but a steel one, I want the feedback when the marble hits the walls).

And I want several levels, so if you are not able to build that in one box, so you have to make several boxed, one for each level...

You are a little bit out of date, huh?

This is known since a while :p

Hey... Wake up... They do this in their spare time...

You (and I and the rest of us) are not able to give them enaugh help to solve that problem. Or why do you think one of the main problems are not solved?

Yeah... Really nice... And you guys from turkey are wondering why many germans don't like peoples like you?

You're acting like a little child...

I'm waiting for the day one of the main developers say that he won't work further on this project because we are not showing enaugh repect to their efforts.

I am not able to write software in C or C# or whatever they use...

I am only an AutoIt "script kiddie"...

So I have try to solve the problems my way (and it seems to work).

Take a look at the GIT shortlog. The part "htcleo: fixed AC charging problems" is a result of my efforts to fix that problem... I've write an E-Mail to Markinus with my detailed observations and how I fixed it temporarily. And a few minutes later he found a mistake in the source and released his changes...

I don't say "disanle the AC charging" (because it was working via USB)...

Maybe you should work a little bit more on the G-Sensor problem...

Try to disable the G-Sensor in Windows (its possible), play with the polling intervals. Maybe there are also some values in Android to change the polling interval to the G-Sensor and report your results... Maybe its to high or to low and that causes the problems...

I don't know it either... But you won't die on some attempts...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xmRipper:
You can play by using G-Sensor enabled kernel.

For the people who won't use g-sensor, there should be disabled kernel.

Got it? This is not hard to understand.

Making g-sensor disabled kernel couldn't be too hard for developers.

Open your eyes. I still see some poeple come up with different theories on this issue ...

I know they do this in their spare time, so that I'm

not

asking for when this problem will be solved, I'm asking for a workaround.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Crusoe86:
And what is when everybody use a G-Sensor disabled Kernel? :D

Who will then find out the issue of the freezing digitizer? :D

Yeah... And several years before some people claim the earth is flat like a Lahmacun... :p

The problem is the G-Sensor... Basta... If it's not, then it will be ordered :D (I love the army :p)

Workarounds on mass
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ugumba:
Hey OP, your point is moot. I use a kernel from michyprima, and have not experienced freezes in a long time. I've disabled autorotation cause I don't like it, yet I play many games (Abduction, NFS Shift, Labyrinth ...) which use it.

The only problem is that the g-sensor can't be calibrated, and is off by 10 degrees or so.

For the record, my base is kwbr 4.1 COM3 WinMo + darkstone's HD2Froyo 2.1. I just copied in the new kernel files (root, zImage and modules).
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rkalas:
I also use kernel from michyprima, I disabled autorotate, calibrated in WINMO, but always when I walk, the HD2 just don't react, which is very annoying. It also seems, that the CPU load is very high when this happens - which can lead to poor battery life.

Don't take this as a complain, as I know the developers are doing their best to fix this.

I'm prepared to test a new kernel as soon as it is out..., but in the mean time I would be thankful for a kernel with the disabled G-sensor.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xmRipper:
You should read previous posts in this topic. I answered same question.

--------------------

Read the two posts above. As I said, Some people still claim different things about this issue.

--------------------

Disabling g-sensor from kernel drivers is exact solution.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Crusoe86:
Then you should write and compile your own kernel ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xmRipper:
I would do if I could, that's what I'm asking for from developers on this topic.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fi3ry_icy:
look, if the g-sensor is disabled, no one will get to test it, and it will never EVER be fixed because NO ONE will feedback to the devs where, when and how did the freeze occured..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hoss_n2:
It is g sensor problem for sure ,nothing else ,I have been two weeks testing different procedures and apps and it is for sure the g sensor problem ,I don,t know how it is related to the digitized ,but it is the cause of freezes. By the way disabling auto rotate doesn't disable g sensor ,it only disabled the auto rotate function not the g sensor

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shadiku:
I use Android Commander to replace the two files in /system/lib/modules/, but if you're using the latest shubCRAFT you can just put them in your Storage Card/Android/root/system/lib/modules/ folder and that'll work too.

No need for kernel with disabled g-sensor.With root explorer delete or move from /system/lib/hw sensors.bravo.so for sense builds or sensors.htcleo.so for shubcraft builds, reboot and no more g-sensor and screen freezes.And latest kernel with wifi tethering :D For manual rotate screen download from market ROTATED.Sense doesnt support landscape,but you can install launcher pro and change to it,when you want landscape and use rotated for manual rotation.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] johnlebaron:
I really appreciate your finding this and posting. But I really don't understand. I tried to go into the roof file and did not find the above files.

Also, with the various "periods" in the above quote I really can't figure out what to do. If I am the only one then I apologize for my ignorance. I will keep looking and trying as I would love to disable the G sensor without losing WiFi.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] johnlebaron:
I very much appreciate the above tutorial.

For those that did not figure this out: Any file explorer (hence "root explorer" above) program, such as Astro, will enable you to find system/lib/hw/sensors.bravo or the file (following the same path) in Shubcraft builds sensors.htcleo. The file can be deleted and then the "G" sensor is disabled once you reboot.

Then you can (without doing anything else) download RotateD and place two shortcuts (it places them as "RotateL" and "RotateP" in your list of programs). You can then put these where you want them and press one for lanscape and the other for portrait. That simple.

I Did not find any widgets (instead I found the app) for the RotateD. I found the RotateD system to only work with ADW Launcher. It did not work with HTC Sense. So I installed EasyHome (which switches from HTC Sense to ADW when I want to rotate the screen) and followed its instructions.

This is a great work around for stopping those annoying screen freezes if you do not "have to" have the auto rotation feature.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] plotzkella:
Sorry to say but this is NOT a solution, because ALL sensors are gone with this workaround. :mad:

That means no compass, no proximity sensor (display stay on during calls) etc.

Who wants to get a hot head during calls and a not locked screen? :D

shadiku, please go ahead with actual kernels or an overclocking kernel.

Big thanks!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shitmonkey:
This one did it for me (shubcraft 1.5). Also RotateD works (just make sure auto rotation is enabled on the device). Great tip!

Just as a note: I just renamed the file so it's easy to enable if needed.

Screen freezing and SODs have been the only reason for me not to use android daily. Hopefully these will disappear now. And of course I'm still hoping to see fix for the g-sensor bug in the future :).

Also I have to say this thread has its place and kudos for the one who started it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MvP77:
this disables the proximity sensor to so your screen stays on while your on a call. i say a kernal is a much better option.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] clio94:
Proximity sensor is also buggy for me.I take the phone from ear and it takes 4-5 sec for screen to open.And this is killing me.Sometimes if i have my hand on to the light-proximity sensor and try to open device,i am getting sod.When i use it for gps,it is very difficult to touch screen while moving.Everything is frozen..If you talk much,so this solution is not for you.But if you use android for messages and internet i think is better without sensors.Lets hope that devs will fix this
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MvP77:
good point. it does take long to wake after a call. Guess i will use a bluetooth more.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] precsmo:
I've been very very annoyed random freezes, and I really don't understand why so many claiming Android for HD2 is fit for daily use, it is not to me!! As a result, I rather prefer g-sensor removed till it is completely fixed.

G sensor disable enable on demand:

These are the g sensor enable disable script (commands) from Darkstone FroyoStone Sense V2 build:

Disable:

mv /system/bin/akmd /system/bin/akmd2

killall akmd

Enable:

mv /system/bin/akmd2 /system/bin/akmd

/system/bin/akmd

It takes effect in realtime. You can use gscript lite for single click usage or directly enter the commands to a terminal. These can be used to on demand and instantly enable disable g sensor with a g sensor enabled kernel. If you disable, it will get instantly disabled and will still be disabled after reboot unless you enable again. Basically renames the g sensor file and kills the process, and renames it back and starting it.
