Hi all,
Been using an HTC Rez for over 2 years, and I've been mostly happy with it. I'll probably switch soon to something newer, but in the meantime, I've run into a strange problem. This started about a week ago, and the symptom is that the phone appears to be locked for a while, then all the icons disappear from the notification bar, then start coming back. It acts like it's rebooting, but if I check the uptime, it hasn't changed, so it's not a full boot.
In the past, I've had problems with Sense doing this, so I switched to Nova Launcher, and things have been good for quite a while. But now this started happening. I know I could try a factory reset, but I'm reluctant to do it because of the effort involved. What I'd like to know first is, can I go into Apps and completely disable HTC Sense, to see if Sense is still somehow causing a problem? Or will disabling Sense completely brick the phone?
Other than disabling Sense or a factory reset, anyone have any other suggestions on things I can try to fix this, or at least figure out what's causing it?
Thanks!
