My stock browser used to crash immediately upon launch, no matter where it was being launched from. So I always have to start the browser twice.
But I recently rooted and went with xtrSense. At first it all seemed smoother, but after a few days, it's back to crashing on launch again. Once I re-launch, it seems to work fine, but this is still a hassle.
Thought rooting would b my magic "fix-all".

I tried changing the homepage, but it still crashes. Ever since upgrading to 2.1 OTA, the browser has always seemed to crash on first load. Launching the browser a second time brings it back up instantly. It's rather annoying. Anyone else notice this? Is there a tweak/change available to try?

I'm looking for feedback from xtrSense fans that have used both.
While I am currently using Froyo (CELB 3.2), I want to have a 2.1 ROM "on deck" for those times when I just want every last thing to work flawlessly. (e.g. I have the Froyo undead call bug in mind, and a better camera app).
Probably I would be running it with no cache2sd, no apps2sd, standard OC'ing (245-710), zanfur kernel.
Is there any reason to prefer 4.2.1 over 4.6, when "bug free" is the highest priority?
For the first few weeks youtube worked fine on my evo. The past week anytime I try to either use the youtube app or play a youtube video it shows a black screen for a split second and then closes immediately. Anyone else have this problem? I wish I could just uninstall/reinstall the youtube app but I don't think you can do that.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have an Android app that in the onCreate() method, preloads a lot of graphics.
When I test my app on my HTC Aria and launch it, it runs fine. However, if I press the back button to exit my app, and then launch the app again, it crashes with an OutOfMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds VM budget. If I then launch the app for the third time (right after it has crashed) it launches fine. Then if I close and re-launch it, it crashes again with out of memory. It continues this every-other-time-crashing pattern forever if I keep trying.
I checked to see what life cycle methods were being called and onStop() and onDestroy() are both being called when I exit the app, yet I have a feeling that something is not yet being cleaned up and that by "crashing" the app when I try to launch it the second time, it somehow free's the memory.
Any thoughts on what could be happening or how to remedy this? Please let me know if you need me to post more info.
Info: My app is fairly simple and only has 1 activity that plays some frame animations.

I have a G1 Android that's been rooted. My problem is that Market and Gmail crashes on launch. I also cannot get to the Data Synchronization page. It displays the page for a split second and then instantly closes out. Is there a way to reset the apps? I've tried factory reset and upgrading to a newer version of Cyanogen mod without success.

View 13 Replies View RelatedI'm still running stock 2.1 and am pretty happy with it. I've heard so much praise of rooting and it's very tempting. After looking at all the ROMs, xtrSense 4 seems like it would be my top pick because it has SenseUI, it's new and very up-to-date, and it is known to run so well with so few issues.
But I was thinking, what's the point of rooting and going through the process to put on that ROM, when it will be almost the same as stock 2.1?
Are the benefits really worth it? How much more speed, enhancements over stock is it?
I am currently using PlainJane2 and like the ROM a lot and haven't really experienced any problems with it. However, I keep reading about how good XtrSense is and was wondering if anyone has used both of these and can compare them. From the descriptions, they seem fairly similar. I just don't know if XtrSense is faster and/or smoother.
I'm also thinking about trying the "non-sense" route and trying Xtr using either ADW or LauncherPro.
I'm currently running xtrsense but am curious about xtrrom and some of the extra features that it has (ie. live wallpapers). I'm currently running a2sd and cache2sd and wondering if all my apps and associated data will still be there and accessible once I run the gscript to turn their features on in xtrROM after wiping my phone and installing? Or should I turn a2sd and cache2sd off while still running Sense so that everything comes back to the phone's internal memory, back them up with Titanium, and turn apps and cache2sd back on once I do the ROM switch?
View 11 Replies View RelatedI'm considering switching roms sometime soon. I have xtrROM currently installed and was considering going to xtrSense. I'm assuming since I already used the dev's method for AP2SD that I won't need to do anything again. Does this mean all my current apps will boot up automatically when I flash xtrSense?

View 12 Replies View RelatedI have an Incredible, so not familiar with Eris, but I want to root my wife's phone and install XtrSense 4.1, as it seems to be a fast and stable ROM with no tweaks needed.
So, here are the steps:
1) One click root on XDA, install the rootme.zip file, reboot and should be rooted.
2) Run a nandroid backup
3) copy Xtr ROM to root of SD, wipe, and flash via "install from zip"
Is there anything I am missing, seems straightforward. The one step that confused me is this:
Wipe SD:ext partition
What does that step do?
I flashed xtrsense yesterday with no major problems, but it seems as if my battery is running down faster than before :/ i just finished charging it, from zero to 100 and then i just watched a short youtube vid (like 3 min) and surfed the web and now im at 86...any ideas to improve my battery life?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI flashed xtrSENSE (my first custom ROM btw) a couple of days ago. As many others have said, things have been just fantastic. It's really like having a new phone. Anyway, today I came across an issue which I doubt would be related to the ROM but I don't have any other ideas.
Once in a while I use a Bluetooth headset. When I tried today, it would not work. It used to work without issue with my stock 2.1 OTA ROM. When I tried it today, Bluetooth would activate on the phone but the headset would never successfully connect. I put the phone in discoverable mode but I never saw the headset appear in the list.
Any way to make the TB light blink faster and with all notifications?

So yesterday I flashed XTRSense4.0.6.1 to both mine and my wife's Eris. My phone has been running great with no problems whatsoever. This afternoon my wife calls me freaking out because her contacts have disappeared... all of them. She said they were all there this morning and all of a sudden they're just gone. I told her to go to Settings, Accounts/Sync, and to Sync Google but that didn't help. She rebooted her phone, synced again and still nothing. Finally I walked her through the process of rebooting into recovery mode, wiping cache, doing a factory reset, and finally a NAND restore which got her back to pre-XTRSense and all her contacts came back without issue. What could have caused this issue and what can I do to prevent future occurrences? I'd really like to flash XTRSense back to her phone because it seemed to fix her other issues but not if its going to cause more problems than it fixes.

What are the major differences between xtrROM and xtrSENSE?
From what I understand, these are two very popular roms for n00bs to start with.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of each?
Everytime i use the gscript app to make a new script for apps2sd on, and i reboot, it still says that i have 27mb of internal memory. When i used kaos froyo and white widow 4.6 it always said that i had around 100mb of internal memory... i have partitioned my sd card and did the ex2 to ex3.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am having a problem with the default browser on my HTC Desire where it will stop loading web pages (or not load them at all) even when I have a H connection or 3G connection.

I tried this morning on the following sites:

And none would open. The little green bar gets stuck about 3mm in. I have a H showing in the status bar. When I first loaded the browsed and went to HTC - Mobile Phones, Smartphones, Cell Phones, PDAs this worked fine. However, this has also stopped loading as I type.

It was mentioned on the other thread that someone has informed 3UK of the problem and they have informed HTC, but if any other people are having the same problem please detail it here and inform your carrier and HTC.
