So for some reason, and no rhyme or reason. Ill be on my phone either flipping through home screen, or coming out of app or text etc.
And my screen goes white, displays HTC. Then says "loading" in a small box in the center of the screen and back to the home screen rebooting. Its the OG launcher, nonrooted or messed with.:thinking:
 
"Dial *#*#4636#*#* Under phone info you will find that the network is factory set to [COLOR=#0054a6 !important][FONT=inherit !important][COLOR=#0054A6 ! important][FONT=inherit ! important]WCDMA[/FONT][/FONT][/COLOR][/COLOR] preferred. I guess the SIM card decides sometime along the way that it doesn't like that much... Setting the network to CDMA [COLOR=#0054a6 !important][FONT=inherit !important][COLOR=#0054a6 !important][FONT=inherit !important]EVDO[/FONT][/FONT][/COLOR][/COLOR]/LTE - Auto completely corrects the problem and the phone is humming along once again."

Mine has done the same thing a few times, but it's not like a complete reboot, or stuck in a loop. It's more like it's resetting the home screen. You just see the white htc screen and the dial timer spinning for a few seconds, then it goes back to normal. Trying to remember, but it seems like it has usually happened after installing and setting up new apps that needed more tweaking in the settings like a music player and it was like a pause while it applied the changes.

guys, this isn't a bootloop at all.


this means you have TOO MUCH running in the background, so Sense CLOSED ITSELF to free up memory. the screen you see is the startup screen for sense. it's "loading" because it's reloading sense. try not running so much in the background
Makes sense. Even running a ATK, is there a better app killer thats geared more to the Sense overly?

dont use a task killer. you do not need to be killing apps on android, especially since google coded gingerbread and up to specifically not work. by killing apps you don't think should be open (like bloatware), you waste more battery because those apps open right back up the second you close them, thereby using more cpu power and then battery. there's no reason to use a task killer because how Linux handles memory is entirely different than windows.

i use system panel to only close an app that is out of control, or when an app misbehaved and i need to refresh it, like Facebook all the damn time lol. i never use "end all" or auto kill anything or end any bloatware. it's not how it works basically. no need to use one.

I use task manager, it was on my phone when I got it so I assumed it was an OEM app.
So when I manually shut down apps, it does more harm to my device then good?
I like to close apps that I'm not using or ones running in the background, just to stay on top of memory use.
You're saying I should just let them run?

basically, yeah. see, though, task manager is an OEM app from HTC, and it doesn't show you all processes..it really only shows you HTC stock apps that you can close. yeah, if you really want to see higher memory, then close some, but honestly, they're just going to open again anyway. having free ram on android is a waste, whereas free ram on a windows platform is good. i would just leave it alone, if i were you.

Since deleting the task killers I have yet had the screen reset!
