    Default I'm getting constant Sense reloads now...

    I was fine the first week of owning this phone but now I'm getting Sense restarts probably 50% of the time I hit the home button.

    Is it worth going to the Sprint store and trying to get a replacement? Anything I should know before going that route?

    Multitasking solution, without needing to root (I think!)

    Also try Nova or Apex launcher. They don't reload so heavily. We're on our own until HTC pushes out their 1st main update.

    Unless the replacement has extra ram you'll have the same issues. Get a better launcher and it will help

    One thing I noticed today with the stock browser is that every time it's launched (manually or via a link) it opens the new page in a new tab. I clicked on Menu>Tabs (in the browser) and there were like 20 tabs opened! I'm not sure how much of a resource hog this is, but it might be worth checking and closing them out to see if it helps. It does sound like you have some kind of background app that is using enough resources to cause Sense to crash and reload. You can try uninstalling recently installed apps to see if that helps to resolve the problem as well.

    20 tabs opened? My stock browser only allows a maximum of 6.

    I'm looking forward to multitasking issues to be fixed in the first software update.

    Well, it might not have been 20 but it was way more than 6 for sure.

    Yeah, I'm really looking forward to an update fix SOON.

    I'm not a complainer and I do love the EVO LTE, but this multitasking issue just plain sucks. I upgraded from a 2 year-old EVO 4G that rarely (if ever) had to reload the browser or any other apps. Watching a new, high end, beautifully crafted HTC phone constantly reloading like this is simply painful

    NOTE: I did try the "fix" at this link ( Multitasking solution, without needing to root (I think!) ) and it helped, but only if no more than 4 or 5 apps are active.

    Thanks, this actually helped me as long as I'm under 5apps.

    Sorry to state the obvious, but have you tried rebooting the phone? Everytime I experience odd behavior after having the phone on for several days at a time, whether it be odd battery life, or random app activity or sense reloads, a simple reboot fixes it right up for at least 5+ days.

    You need to manage your memory resources better. If you did, you wouldn't see so many sense reloads.

    Stock, I would only get about 250-300 MB maxed out of Ram. After rooting and disabling sense and using Apex launcher I easily can get 350-420 MB maxed out of RAM. This helps the multitasking and Sense reloading problem. However, it seems that HTC put a default "lock" on the amount of RAM you can have before the phone starts to kill of tasks. The "lock" should be lowered because it becomes annoying when I'm loading a YouTube video and come back to find it reloaded again.

    And by "you" you mean HTC Sense, right?
