Code:

killall hildon-home
# But may issue a REBOOT.
killall hildon-desktop


Doing killing hildon-desktop doesn't help.
I just do killing hildon-home, but it's boring to bring all stuffs back...
Anyway to make it faster? Or solve the problem?

First of all. Thank You all for Correcting my mistakes and also Thank You all for sharing your Experience here. =)

Moving on... Now maybe my battery is spoiled or the "Desktop command Execution" widget is showing the wrong information.
I also noticed that when my phone is fully charged it only shows a maximum number of 95%. Now is that widget problematic? I don't know, because even in "Battery Eye" and "Battery Graph" both show the same thing. Maximum 95%.
Anyways that is a different problem, i will look into this my self, but those who are facing the same problem do Share your experience =).

Now sticking to the topic. My hildon-home is dead and it had been over 4 hrs. Still no respond. I have to many applications to check it one by 1. More over this happens randomly, thus making it even more harder for me to find the problematic application.

No it isn't, the problem is that the battery reading really isn't that accurate. As a test of this, after your phone has been running a while (i.e. not just after you have rebooted it), type in a terminal as root "stop bme" followed by "start bme", this will restart the battery management entity, the program responsible for managing the charging and (apparently) estimating the charge level of the battery. I just did that on my n900 which has been running just over 25 hours since I last rebooted and the battery level dropped from 88% to 70% in less than a minute. Therefore it is not that rebooting your phone uses a lot of battery, but rather when you reboot bme makes a new estimate on the charge level of your battery.

Oh, and when I take my phone off charge it typically reads between 92% and 96%, I have seen it at 98%, but so long as it is in the 90s I'm not concerned, after all overcharging the battery will just cause it to deteriorate more quickly.

Thanks For the update =). I did not know that. I usually charge my phone only once it dies, and i only turn it back on when it is fully charged. Anyway now that the battery problem is solved.

Now! Any one got trough with the problem in the tittle? Hildon-home crashing? I am slowly trying 1 app at a time to figure out which one is causing the problem. Aren't there any developer people out there reading this topic?

Re: Hildon-Home Keeps crashing.
 
I think i have found what is cauing Hildon-home to crash. There is I think only 1 application, and it is the "DESKTOP COMMAND EXECUTION" Widget. I did some testing and only found that, the widget was actually causing hilldon-home to crash.

I am afraid not. I dont think they are bothered on fixing this bug.
