I am having a big problem...every time I use an app, when I press the home button the Home requires 5 seconds to load, like it was closed before...
There is a way to know if my Home crashes or Android closes it because the Ram has finished?!
It is almost unusable that way...

Is your sig up to date? Maybe you should update the firmware on it. Load 3.6.8.1 or even 3.9.9.1 (as it may be the next stable release from cyan)
You should use compcache and/or a swap partition as it does seem that android is killing vital apps for memory

I am on the 3.9.8 right now (9installed yesterday) but I'll try the latest tomorrow hoping this problem will go away because my G1 is unusable this way...I press the home button 200 times a day! I am wasting 5*200=1000 second of my time per day....Anyway how can I know if the home crashes or it is closed by Android? This can be useful also in the future.

If you update to 3.9.9.1, cyan took out the advanced launcher, so it should work much better for you
Hi does anyone think that an app could be developed to add the 3 button bar in sense ui to the launcher on stock g1s or could this app be implemented to a home replacement.
It's perfectly possible to make a sense-ui copy, but it's just a matter of doing it. Try getting in contact with someone who has already made a home replacement app and see if they will implement it.
Ok cool thanks for the reply
Is anyone willing to take on the challenge to create a sense ui clone
i think probably not... people are probably just gonna start telling you to get hero themes or roms lol
though i would also like SOME hero stuff.. not everything because having everything seems to slow the phone down..
Yh maybe but the reason I'm asking is because I like how the 3 button bar works and I also have a stock phone and don't really want to flash the danger spl
I'd rather not use the double tap apps in the Play Store, they don't seem to work. I really miss this feature from AOSP roms.
I'm looking for a tweak like this also. I've read an article and it said "many" ROMs have this feature, only reason I wanted to root and flash this thing, but is this not the case anymore?

i know custom sense roms have volume skip and pause
all custom roms or certain ones? Is it a mod? Or built into the rom? Where's the option for it?
I'm asking because I flashed a custom sense rom already (trickdroid) and have no idea how to turn this on.
I think it's on by default as long as screen is off long press vol up skips forward and long press vol down for play/pause

you can install this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1629653
you need root tho
renovate rom has it included
So no chance for volume track control with no root/custom ROM?
All you have to do is use the old HTC headphones which had a track next/previous button as well as the connect/disconnect button. I used my old headphones from my Desire HD and it works grand. I think you can still get the headphones from various sites on the internet.
You can use the headset you got with the phone and use a app that recognize how many press. Like 2 for next track 3 for previous etc
Here's one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=se.jays.headsetcontrol

It doesnt work on ONE
No button apps work for now with the One ... also modding for it to work causes Wakelocks and battery drain ... its not a perfect solution
I have written about this to HTC so many times that I almost was about to abuse them in last email .. Its just plain out ridiculous ... if you are selling this as a media powerhouse, this is one of the basic functions alongwith volume keys on the headset !
Hey guys,
So, I just picked up the HTC one today. As I expected, the hardware is great, but I have to admit i'm really disappointed in the software. It feels like a child's toy. So few options. I'm coming from an Xperia Ion. I thought the software on that was terrible and limited but HTC's is worse. It obviously didn't take me long to flash my Ion. and it seems I'm not even willing to give the HTC 24 hours to flash it either. So, I'm used to Cyanogen Roms and other xperia specific roms which were awesome. But I see no stock android roms for the HTC One. All seem to have HTC Stock Roms and that's exactly what I don't want. I don't want to be limited by the choices HTC gives me.
I was just wondering if anyone knew of a Stock 4.1.2 or 4.2 android rom for the HTC. And if not, if you recommend any particular Rom considering the following:
1. I need LTE
2. I want a barebones phone that I can add what i need to, not the other way around. I hate these freakin manufacturers and their obsessive need to add crap to a perfectly fine platform. I'd get the nexus 4 is it's hardware was better and had LTE and didn't look like ****, but hey, that's not an option.
Things I hate about the One.
1. the phone dialer buttons are badly placed
2. no control over headset button actions - even with 3rd party apps
3. No menu button that I can find - yes I know each app has one, but it's not standard and that's annoying
4. Can't seem to find a recent apps/multi-task button
5. Bunch of home app features missing or just too limited - yes I know i can replace with a launcher
Recent apps/Multi-tasking: Quickly double tap the Home key to get this.
(As you may have noticed, long-press Home opens Google Search)
Multitask by double tapping the home button. But ya I flashed to trickdroid for the One and its still HTC stock, but it is alot better, Gives you the option of making the long hold on the back button a menu button.
There a few minimal roms in the development forum.
@kuroneko007 -- thanks for that. looked everywhere. I even tried double tapping a couple times, but seems my timing was off, which is just a testament to how bad an idea that is. Double tap incorrectly and you end up on the home page. No big deal, but all these little things just irk me. Ya, I had noticed the long press home feature.
@sdla4ever -- trickdroid will take a look. was really hoping there'd be a non HTC option, but i realize it's a very new phone and maybe there just hasn't been enough dev time just yet. I am hoping that'll change.
I saw a thread on an app called SwipePad, which will help with getting around the phone from anywhere with gestures, which is cool, so that might help a bit, but i just feel like there are a lot of details I was spoiled with on my previous roms that I'm just not getting here at all. Anyway, any other tricks and tips you guys have found that boost your productivity or provide more options, i'm always open to hearing.
Thanks for your input guys.

Look in the HTC One development forum there are ROMs that are even more minimal.
Give it a month or two. The phone has just been released and many people have not even got hold of their pre-ordered units yet.

Ya, I figured that was the case, but just thought I'd ask, on the off-chance i was missing something obvious. I wonder if Cyanogen will make a ROM for it. Of all the roms i've tried, I think i like the CM ones best, though not by much. SOme really good stuff out there.

I have the opposite problem - I hate the fact that for many apps which already have a menu button a separate menu button appears at the bottom of the screen, taking up valuable screen estate. Any way to stop this?

My suggestion would be to install the Renovator ROM with the de-sense option in AROMA, then install Apex launcher and set gestures for actions you want such as menu and search...etc. Or you could give the CM from the ATT version a shot, but it seems to be an early build so there could be some loose ends right now.
I think this is a great phone the has some questionable design decisions from HTC in both the hardware and software. But everything can be somewhat dealt with with a little trial and error and research.

I found a much better way - I installed this kernel and disabled the three menu button menu - now use the htc logo as the menu button!
@apd - that's exactly what I mean. Sure the apps have their own menu area, but it's a waste of space and not always in the same place for every app, which is annoying and like you said takes up real estate. if one of the capacitive buttons could serve as the menu button, that would be awesome. As for the last reply, what do you mean you disabled the 3 menu button menu? I understand that it's possible to use the htc logo as a cap button, but what other button are you referring to that you disabled? You referring to the software/app buttons that show up in every app? Please explain. I wonder what roms that kernel works with. Will have to look into that.
@lilhaiti - i agree. phone is solid, but there are a few things that imo weren't done with much thought. I am and have used Apex for a couple years, and between that and Swipe Pad, I've covered most of the basics, tho, essentially I'm installing apps to do what the phone should be able to do from the start. Whatever, no big deal, but these details are still important to me. As for the CM, I'll wait. I'm not in a huge rush, but I'll definitely try it once it's stable.

adding
Code:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
to your build.prop file will remove the three dot menus in all apps bar HTC's.
I did this and have the HTC Logo as a menu button.
Bonus question:
Does anyone know how to keep the three-dot menu in apps which implement it properly in the action bar, but hide it in apps where it appears as a black bar?
Ok guys and gals. Had my htc one for a few days now. Unlocked the bootloader today, installed twrp custom recovery so far and running stock.rom at the moment. Now the question i have is:
Like on my HTC Evo 3d you could replace the task buttons on the bottom of the screen up from the soft keys. Im not seeing how to do that now.
Any one have a clue about how to go about this? I removed a few apps and disabled a few for example the stock internet browser. And it took the task icon off the bar but i cant seem to replace it with anything. I am adding a attached screen shot pic for a better idea
I do appoligize if this has already been asked before. I have been the past while trying to make sure it hasnt been
