[Q] JPY is almost perfect but..

Has anyone noticed this bug with JPY?:
When you first boot and open Gallery it is super fast with all the thumbnails preloaded. After a couple of hours when you open it again it says "Loading images" and re caches the thumbnails again taking some time. This is especially evident in folders with a lot of images. It would be ok for an hour and then bam! Loading images slowly when i open it again.
Clicking on a folder opens it with the first four pics showing and then scrolling you have to wait a few seconds for the thumbnails to appear whereas when it initially booted all the thumbnails were already there. Its like it deletes the thumbnails after a while and has to generate them again which takes some time especially if you have a lot of folders and pics.
Is this normal, I don't remember this in my old firmware? Its the only thing that is bugging me. Maybe they force close Gallery after a certain time avoid the sensor draining bug that was there with the previous firmware?
Can you please check a see if yours is the same so i dont have to do a factory reset

you can download SGS tools from the markup and upgrade your gallary app.. that's what i did and i don't have any problems with the gallery anymore..
goodluck

The gallery app in SGS tool is not compatible with JPY because of the new feature of selecting wall paper for lock screen. I gave it a try but it would force close everytime i wanted to select a wallpaper.

Absolutely the same and even more.... I have my picasa account connected to the gallery too, after an hour mainly picassa the gallery crashes - black screen, but no force close. Actually this one, the battery (not 100% after disconnecting) and the contacts app not closing, made me go back to JPP.

The contacts bug can be solved by uninstalling the task manager's update.

Yes, go to manage applications, find it and click uninstall updates to go to the previous version, and the contacts app will be ok.

I wouldn't say perfect but it's the best stock firmware yet.

[Q] Can not open my photo attachments

Hello guys, I have a HTC hero from sprint which I intalled the 2.2 android version. I never notice this till today, for some reason when i try to open a picture sent to me via text, I press the play icon on the screen and just for less the a secon I can see the picture but it goes back to the message; it wont stay open. please help.

I always had that happen with stock messaging app. Try handcent or chomp.

If its a pic just long press and save or view attachment. Might work.
Yea its me again with the
Modified Hero

Yeah, it's a hit or miss for me. When I can't view it, I do what he said above me.

The only problem with saving is if it's an animated .gif file, it won't animate. And if I'm not mistaken, stock messaging won't animate either. Not 100% since I haven't used stock messaging for quite some time.

Can Any Devs Fix This? (Multitasking Problem)

When you switch to another app via the multitasking window, there is a brief 0.5s where the "app" is grainy and doesn't actually scroll or work, then after the 0.5s, the app returns to actual quality and whatever happened during the delay (scrolling, button press, etc) then registers. It looks like it is initially loading up a snapshot image of the app in its last used state and then transitions into the actual app itself after the short delay. Sometimes the page or the app itself will actually refresh. I played with a GS4 and it does not do that.
Can this be changed?

bump

Those are just shortcuts. It's not like windows pc where you can open many windows at once and where you have plenty memory to go around. Remember the phone has only 2g of memory.
If you Google multitasking on cellphone, you will understand why.

Like I said, I played with a GS4 and it did not have that problem.

Horrible Multitasking?

I posted this in the Sprint HTC One forums and got little in reply, let me know whose you guys think
I don't know if this is an issue with 4.3 specifically because I don't recall if this was happening since I installed the update..but my multitasking with this phone has been horrible lately. I mean no matter what app I switch to it begins to reload, even if it's the last one I used or a light application (ex Google Now to Messaging). I already found it frustrating how upon switching apps with this phone it would show you a frozen image for a brief moment before before allowing you to interact with the actual application, but now apps are actually having to reload. I'm using apex pro and it's also redrawing nearly every time I go back to the homescreen, be it from internet, floorboard, messaging etc. Not sure why it's happening but it started like a week ago and my phone has been feeling pretty ****ty because of it. My GS4 w/touchwiz has less multitasking issues than this phone right now, any ideas on what's going on? Stock unrooted 4.3

Isn't there a specific setting that locks the launcher in memory to prevent the redraws? Are you running a custom rom or you're using apex on a stock rom?

There is that setting, but when it's enabled a notification sits in the dropdown that says to remove apex from the permanent memory, you can't swipe it away either. Really stupid, never seen a phone with that notification before, my s2 with 1gb of ram multitasked amazing. Regardless it's all aspects of multitasking not just launcher redraw, if I switch from messages to setting and then back to massages, it'll have to reload regardless of how light of an app it is.
Stock unrooted 4.3. Rebooting gives me a few days without hindrance but eventually the problem resurfaces, I barely have any apps installed and none of them are out of the ordinary.

Auto Rotate Lag in KK

Guys, any of you seeing the lag in auto rotate after the kitkat update? It's ridiculous to the point I've just turned it off. I'm talking like 5 secs for orientation to change. Plus when I open the messages app and the phones in portrait, it goes straight to landscape. -I'm thinking because at some point within the last 10 seconds the phone was oriented differently.
Is there a fix? Would rather not reset. ..

I'm not having any trouble with my auto-rotate, I just checked in like 8 apps just to make sure. But I am have a lag issue where when I am in the conversation list in messaging and open a conversation, it lags like 5 seconds until the text bubbles load.

Hmm Def strange. It's the worst for me in the messages app. I was looking on the t mobile forums and there are quite a few complaining about it there.
If it's not affecting everyone I'm optimistic that a reset might fix it...

Issue is definitely with the messages app.
