sometimes everything from the desktop dissappear for few seconds

[gigavolt]

Hello.
Sometimes after I end some app. (chrome, game, maps,... ) my desktop is without all icons and widgets for cca 5 seconds, only wallpaper is there. After short time it is okay. What's wrong?

With android 4.1.2. it didn't happen, with 4.2.2. 15.3.A.0.26 and also 15.3.A.1.14. it is there. After update I done factory reset.

Thanks for answers.

Probably the system crashes.Do you have a task killer?

No.

Do you have a lot of processes at one time?(sync,apps,games).Try to force restart the phone(power button+vol up until the phone vibrates).

I have this problem as well.

It's so annoying!

This is normal Android behavior in case of low memory situations - Applications in background get killed. The desktop is an ordinary app, so it is closed sometimes too. When you exit the memory-thirsty application, your home screen just needs to load itself again, which takes some time.

You may try to reduce amount of background running applications. This may not fix the issue, but should cause it to happen less often.
