"The application HTC Sense (process com.htc.launcher) has stopped unexpectedly." - Error I was getting.
Background/Issue - I had LauncherPro set up(luckily) so had a launcher to fall back on, which I am/was using as default and installed/uninstalled several apps but had no issues... I decided to try HTC Sense again and was getting this error only when I launched HTC Sense... Restarting the phone or anything else didn't help. When I used LauncherPro everything was fine but when I tried HTC Sense got the error. Not sure if it was HTC Sense malfunctioning because of any conflicts with certain apps. I read a few posts and everybody had tried different apps before getting HTC Sense launcher error.
Solution 1 - The only solution I could find in posts was a factory reset which meant starting with a clean slate and customizing the whole thing and backing up stuff on the phone, data, etc... So I was reluctant to do that.
Since I was using LauncherPro I could use/access my phone flawlessly using LauncherPro, so if you have only HTC Sense and getting this error then I am not sure what you can do, maybe some other folks can share their experience. But this is how I solved it.
Solution 2 - Went to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > HTC Sense > Clear Data. When I pressed Clear Data it gave me a message "All of this application's data will be deleted permanently. This includes all files, settings, accounts, databases and so on."I was hoping it wouldn't clean my entire phone like factory reset but when I clicked "OK" all I saw was it reset the HTC Sense's 7 screens(which I can deal with). All the data, SMS, Phone numbers, Accounts, Apps, etc. everything is intact... Phew!
Hope this helps somebody out there! If you have a different experience/solution please feel free to share it. All comments are welcome!
Started my first thread so please be gentle and hope it's in the right category, if not then mod could you please move it. Thanks and love this forum...
