Hello, my sw2 is slow meaning when I open apps, loading shows up and couple of seconds it opens this happens to all apps except built in and Facebook and twitter. previously my SW1 never did that it would open straight away using the same apps and I wanted to know is it a SW2 problem or is just my Watch. Thanks

Having the same problem. It sometimes takes 8 seconds to open the app. And mostly I have to run it 2 times...
Any solution?
Sent from Galaxy Mega using xda premium HD
I noticed that this happens when the bluetooth connection is weak (e.g. when the watch and the smartphone are too far apart)

I have this issue even when the phone is in my pocket or close to me ?

I have same issue with opening apps. Everything works like charm when fresh installation of sony smartwatch sw2 app but after couple minutes I cant open any external app. Only reinstall help for few minutes

Yeah, sometimes it tooks so long that the watchface comes and have to try to open the app again. Usually needs 2-3 attemps to open some app. Some apps work better, some dont... The calender app is terrible, on everytime i need to try to open it 2-3 times, but for example the mail app works great on everytime.

My problem was solved. Any htc sense rom is not compatible with sw2. Pure rom based on aosp work well

Good to hear that. But what you are saying is not true. I am using HTC One SV with sense 5 and did not have any issues with the smartwatch at all.

Sorry, I ment any Sense rom on HTC ONE V. Mabye lack of RAM on this model is problem because sony app that handles connection with watches needs about 25mb.
Anyway sorry for misinterpretation.
I think the 3rd party apps get downloaded to the watch's RAM and once the app is closed the ram is cleared. I guess some apps close when the watch face comes up too. this explains why the 3rd party apps are greyed out when there is no BT connection.
As far as I can tell, it has to do with your CPU, at least on my HOX+. I have CPU stats installed and I can see my CPU load on taskbar. With high usage it takes a while to start an app on my SW2, sometimes 3-6 seconds, sometimes they don't start at all. When usage is low, it's only a matter of one or two seconds.

I've been using a CM 7 highly build for a week now and its been going great. However there are a few problems I hope you guys can help solve.
When I'm in an app, maybe sms or android market and I hit home, there is a long delay before I see the homescreen.
In some cases it can take up to 5 secs. It doesn't always do this but it usually does when I have been in an app for a while.
Another issue I have is the phone behaves oddly. It will forget what ringtone I've assigned and when the alarm goes off sometimes nothing will appear on screen.
But my main issue is the home screen lag. Any ideas?

I've found the default launcher with CW7 to lag (without heavy tweaking); I gave up on it a long time ago and use LauncherPro, which I find to be quicker. Try using a different launcher, if you're not sold on CM7s default.

Thank you. Just what I needed. So far the slowdown is gone and so is the lockscreen lag I experienced. Cheers.

Is anyone else having a problem with Sense continually crashing? Almost every other time I go into an app and use it for any length of time, when I exit the app Sense has crashed and I have to watch the stupid loading animation while it restarts. It's happening really regularly.
Cheers.

Check how much ram is free.
And check the developers options for background tasks.

Incredible how much ram Sense is taking up.
I figured it would take less considering it's more stream lined to look at compared to say Sense 3.
At times it feels like we've got two operating systems competing with each other for resources but slapped together.
It's definitely not ram related. It just did it again with 313 mb free.

I initially noticed this too. Then I went and disabled auto updates to HTC sense and voila, no more seemingly crashes in Sense.

Hi globalgpj, can you tell me how you disabled auto updates? I got my new device yesterday and I find that my touch screen and buttons become unresponsive fairly often. The only solution is to press the power button briefly to switch off the screen and on again and the response is ok.
Thanks.
I had this problem too 1st time i started my phone.
What helped for me was a complete system restore and skip the setup-wizard and do all that manually one in SENSE.
Here it shows how it was on my phone (look at 0:30)
Goog luck!

If this bothers you return the phone. Htc has had this issue since the Sensation. It will rear its head at some point. It's because Sense uses too much ram and isn't locked in memory so Android will dump it from ram to make room for other apps and then it has to reload which takes longer than most launchers. This reason alone is why I'm staying away from Sense. Try using an 3rd party launcher and it'll work better.

You don't understand. This issue has been confirmed by many people on Sensation running Gingerbread and ICS including me. Adding a line to the build file forcing Sense to be locked in memory. The moment you remove that line (how it is by default) it starts happening.
It's fine, just don't expect this issue to be fixed because to htc its not an issue. It's just the way it is.

I can't remember exactly. But it did solve my problem of sense constantly loading which causes lag or delay in sense loading.
However, check the following:
Go into settings, and at the very bottom is Developer options. Click this option. Then see if this item is ticked :"Show screen updates"... if it is ticked, untick it.
The only thing I have ticked in this option is "Animation", everything else is unticked.
The other thing I also do, is I try not to have my widgets updated constantly. I have my emails checked only every 3 hours, my news reader, greader pro, every 12 hours.
Let me know if this has helped you.

I believe you can only use this script with a rooted device. Is that correct ?
Many people with HTC One X may be locked into a carrier for some period of time and therefore on a Stock ROM !
adding echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 to the local.prop solved the problem on my Desire Z, luckily temproot was enough to edit the file.
I don't suppose there is a way to temproot the One X yet?! I'm not interested in perm rooting my One just yet... I'm too fond of my 2yrs. warranty

This is a confirmed bug (countless people reported it).
I find this very strange.. i have in the last week had one force close on sense, other than that it has been fine
I haven't seen a single force close on anything yet. Had a few random close-without errors on Route 66 and one or two on Sygic, but this is infinitely more stable than my ICS Asus Transformers...

I have to agree with you . That was my problem in the beginning. So I installed Touch Calendar app, and since then, no more problems.

PS. I also went into SETTINGS, clicked on "Accounts and Sync" and check under my gmail account to see how many things were auto syncing. I removed most of them and chose to do them when I needed to. This helped conserve battery and possibly a smoother SENSE operation.
Sometimes having weird stuff happening after i end a call: goes to some random contact in edit mode / dropbox app opens / etc
Tested carefully and it's not due to accidental touches around the "end call" button, it even did it once or twice without me ending the call...call ended by the other side, calling screen got closed and some contact popped out.
happens rarely, but wtf?

I'm unrooted and I get the same things. It's like I pushed something bit I heaven't. I hope that HTC will address this issue in their next update
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
The thing that pops up... is it the last thing you used or used recently?
Like cronus101 asked, if the apps that show after ending the call are the most recently used apps, then I'm guessing HTC Sense (the launcher) is crashing each time and since there's no home screen to go to, it displays the last used app. Pressing back will also cycle through the recently used. This is my guess. Try clearing data of HTC Sense in Settings-Manage apps. The best way to get rid of this is to do a factory reset and start afresh. There could be many reasons why Sense is crashing. This behaviour is typical of any launcher when it FCs. If you don't want to factory reset, you can try using a different launcher (Apex, Nova) and see if this still happens.

So why does my phone start to lag after a day. No matter what ROM or kernel I am on, after about 20 hours my phone starts to lag. If I restart my phone all is good. Does anyone have an explanation? Is this a great 4.2.2 feature? This wasn't happening before that.

Is that even pure stock? There are several posts on this already. There isn't a genuine solution but some have suggested some ways to minimize lag on 4.2.2.

Check your memory usage. I have this problem too - and it seems like my memory if full. Try to see what services run in the background and maybe you can stop some of them. Also look at 'Greenify' - it is an app that stops background processing for apps you don't want hanging in the background. It requires root, though.
do you use twrp? i had that problem until someone mentioned that twrp doesnt wipe completely and used cmw.

would it be too much of apps running at the background and causing it lag?
I'm reading about this issue more and more everyday ... one solution i saw was that to install "Clean master" from Play store and clear cache with that to minimize lag i believe it only affects custom roms and not stock based roms :/
Does anyone have their tablet freeze randomly for a bit, and make it unresponsive for a while (few seconds)?
Or is this the touch screen issue everyone is talking about?
Occasionally, but then again, my first n7 does this loads, as well as my phone, probably an android problem Tbf, every device I've used, including apple products have occasional few seconds of hold ups

I've noticed this on mine as well... I think it has to do with the touchscreen issues. In some spots, I'll tap and there is a few milliseconds delay. In other spots, the taps are recognized immediately.

Use Chrome Beta as your default and just disable Chrome Stable. It doesn't happen on the Beta builds at all. The most recent Chrome Stable update has an issue within it.
yes this happens, and even turning the screen off won't register. it's a system wide freeze, not a touch screen issue.

yeah exactly my problem.
For me, the freezing occurs while I am using a browser such as dolphin or Chrome.
The devs in the Nexus 4 section have decided it has to do with the JSS build of 4.3 which is what we have as stock. Its not device specific and looks to be a big problem.

The freeze goes away for me with an alternate kernel.
