Possible fix to the typing lag - HD2 General

I'm not sure if this really fixes the problem since I'm still testing it (so far, so good).
Since I've started using a new ROM I've had the lag problem, but today I've followed a sugestion, replacing the "eT9ime.dll" file by the one from the PTG stock 1.66 ROM, wich never gave me problems (and has a better T9 behaviour for me, that was why I've used it).

So, try to replace "eT9ime.dll" in the Windows directory by the one attached here. This worked nicely on mine (using latest Artemis ROM), but I can't guarantee it would be the same for you, so you should backup the original (or you can dump it from the ROM installer later).
Don't forget to restart the device.

So, no one else tried this?

i have 600 messges from 1 person, will this fix the loading/lag?

The typing lag while the messages are loading? I think it will help (dunno if it will solve the problem completely, but for me it helped).
Just try and report. Please save your important data before in case something goes wrong.

Hello!
I found a Reg entry that helps:
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCMessaging
there is a entry named:
DisableCacheWhenLengthierMessage
change this value from (1) to (0).
so the cache will be enabled.
the loading lag is still there, but 70-80% less then before.
i have for example 1 conversation with 75X messages. bevore this reg-edit, the loading time was by 30-60sec before i coul´d write without typing lag.
after this tweak i cane write without typing lag in 15-20 sec. enougth time to read the message and think about it what i want write back ^_^...
still not a end solution but better than bevore.
greatz!

Wow this has actually solved it for me or so it seems. Loading doesn't get in the way of typing now, I can type the same speed as when texts are fully loaded.
Definitely a tweak worth adding, thanks a lot for that. Not tried the file from the first post

i tried looking for that regkey in the registry but i dont seem to have it (in HTCMessaging)
i'm on 1.66WWE if that makes a difference?
Do you think it would work if i add the reg key?

Excellent!
Replacing that file gave me the stock behaviour of when I'm composing a text using T9 predictive input method I can now follow the actual written text in the message box instead of the suggested words, making it easier to enter the correctly suggested word
Many thanks for the find

That was the reason why I've replaced it
But don't you notice a speed improvement also? Or is it just me? lol

wait, im confused with what everyone is talking about.
does this fix the keyboard loading lag or does it fix the lag WHILE you are typing a message (example, you type a letter and it doesnt appear until 1 second later)?
And also, I dont use T9. I type every single letter out on the keyboard. would this fix be of any use for me?

Regarding the file I've posted, it helps reducing the typing lag, not loading lag... And only if you use T9.

This Reg Entry should work an any HD2 Rom.
Here are 2 CABs with the Reg Entry:

Select input method is really slow ?

Hi all
Hope you all had a great christmas
Okay, back to my question ... when you tap on the input method selection arrow at the bottom of your screen, does it take like forever ... okay, not forever, but more like 6-8 seconds ... for the popup menu to appear and let you select type of input method to use ?
Is there a way to speed this up ?
Takes forever here too. I did use Tweak2k2 to hide some SIPs I never use, plus I have Calligrapher installed.
If you've installed too many sips and uninstalled them....basically messed around with the SIPs (installing and uninstalling)....the registry gets messed up. This makes wm5 to keep thinking and looking for certain dlls until it gives up...
the only way is, do a cleanup (hard reset) and install only the ones you need and are sure of sticking with it until the next hard reset
cheers!

Do you have Voice Command installed? If you do, that will slow down the SIP selection.

Wonder if it's a WM5 thing because I noticed it on my Wizard and now on my Magician II and just assumed that it was due to the 200Mhz processor. If you're seeing in on a Universal then I guess it can't be a processor thing. It is BLOODY annoying as I only ever use Letter Recogniser and very occasionally the Keyboard, but for some reason it keeps defaulting to the keyboard, particularly aftr the (all too frequent in WM5) soft reset.

oh ohh,

Any tips?

Hmmm, as a matter of fact, i do have Voice Command installed ... but I seem to recall seeing this slow SIP selection even before that. Anyway, I have disabled Voice Command and it's still just as slow.
Can anyone else here who does not have Voice Command installed verify this ?

Indeed, it is bloody annoying ... I don't see how popping up a menu of available input methods can take that long. It's not like we're asking it to load all the input methods, we just wanna see the list of available methods.
I am also facing the same problem of defaulting to keyboard after a soft reset :roll:

I have a qtek 9000 running on the stock rom. My sip opens up almost instantaneously.
Before which, I had the same issue when I was beta testing calligrapher on another device running wm5. It apparently was a problem with one of the beta builds of calligrapher which they claim to have fixed in their final release...however, I've never installed the final release on my universal. So if you have CG installed, try not to install after a hard reset (Last time i had this issue, i had to hard reset...that was the only way out)

Input lag on 6.5 builds later than 23017

I, and others over at modaco have noticed a serious lag when inputting text on the newer builds. It takes almost a full second before there i am able to type another letter. And to zoom in on Opera i have to wait about a half second on the double taps.
If anyone else has experienced this lemme know, and also if anyone has found a fix that would be great. There are many of us that would like to to use the new 23034 build but cannot do to the lag creating an unusable circumstance.
Thanks all.

It replaces the biotouch.dll. The one that comes with the newer wm6.5 builds causes this behaviour, so replacing the dll fixed it for me.
i've tried it but unfortunately the input lag is still there after installing and soft resetting my omnia. Though, i managed to eliminate the input lag by installing and enabling ftouchSL. wierd.
Change HKLM/System/GWE/Touch/Filter/MinimumTapTime to 0.

Mark message read when first opened, not delayed

I tried searching but couldn't find anything to solve my problem, maybe I was searching for the wrong thing but here's my dilemma.
I have a brand new Sprint TP2.
When I read a text message on the messages tab in Manila, neither the little number in the scroll bar or icon in the notifications bar goes away (marking it as read) unless I leave it on the message for an extended period of time. Does anyone know a registry key I can edit to shorten this time, or another work around.
Thanks!
I noticed the exact same thing... really annoying when the text messages are short and you can read it in a split second... seems to have some sort of a time limit before the notification goes away...
there has to be a registry file that can be edited to make the time go to 0...
Yep, does my head in too!
There HAS to be a way to reduce or remove this...
Anyone?
Yes I've noticed this too.. It's very annoying.
What you'll also notice is if you are texting someone with the WM6 interface and keep the contact's text window open, it never marks new texts as unread. So when you go back you'll have all these new texts.
However if you use HTC's interface you don't have this problem but the HTC's interface doesn't work very well and it's not very dominant.

Copy the dll to your windows directory and reboot and all will be well.

Reducing sms marked as read time

How can I reduce the time that it takes to register my SMS messages as read? Some of my messages are a word or two long and in the time it takes me to read them the phone is still displaying them as new messages as I haven't had them open for the length of time required to register them as read. Any ideas?

i'm sure its something that we can play with in the registry... but i rather leave that in more "capable" hands... lol
but as for now.. i haven't seen anything on our forums come up along those lines... although i do admit that i would also be interested in reducing the time as well... all i really need is 1 sec... i dislike having to wait there on the messaging tab, until the notification goes away....
+1
I'd love something like this. I hate that I get a text that says "yes" and I have to stare at that screen for about 5 seconds for it to be marked as read.
Me too...wouldn't it be a registry change or something within Manila?
bump for this issue. Anyone more knowledgeable have any solution to this?
lets try again. Im sure lots of people know if this is something that takes 2 seconds to change or if it would be tough.
most annoying bit is when ya get a few msgs and ya flck thru em that fast that theres always one that stays "unread" and ya have to open all msgs to find it or else hover over all the ones uv just read till the 1 goes away... vote 1 from me to sort this out, it should go as soon as the text has landed on the screen, and same with emails if anyone can sort that one too lol
+1 from me too! For SMS And Emails too
HKLM/Software/Jataayu/Messaging
MSFTUnreadCountFlag = 5
Mine is set to 5 (seconds) changing that to a lower value will work
good luck

use the registry editor to confirm the value has changed. Sometimes, a registry edid might not be saved
nah still no joy, its definatly changed the value tho. hmmm

Keyboard auto correction dictionary

I use to know where the config file that held all the auto corrections for the keyboard, but now I can't find it. I mistakenly typed in "thatd" so now every time I want to say "that's", I get the wrong word by default.
Does anyone know where the config file is so that I can delete the "thatd" entry?
Thanks
Joe, the file is named eT9MyWords, and it's in the Windows folder. Hope this helps.

try soft reset. I've often found that some words that come up as options when typing are lost when soft reset.

I just Task29 and flashed a new ROM and the mistake persisted
hehe, handy.
The next thing then is that the word generator throws up words based on your useage, , so type 'thats' again, but press the small symbol to the right of the words when they come up, and you should see 'that's' as one of the options. Choose it, and then type it again, and you should see it now comes up as the first option.
(Also, its worth making sure you are being very very accurate with the S and D keys, maybe your touch alignment is off a few milimeters, in which case it WILL offer you thatd, because thats what you typed, , , i do that myself practically daily with some words.)
edit - just double checked, and when i type thatd it doesnt offer me that's, and when i type thats it doesnt offer me thatd.
boo... That's so lame! I just typed 400+ chars worth of "thats" which I pressed the "that's" suggestion that came up every time, and i still get thatd... I even get thatd as the default suggestion for tjats, yhats and thatd... I did a search on my phone for thatd, and I got nothing (wasn't expecting to either)
I've Task29'd and flashed a new ROM and I still get THATD!!!! Really, I think I'm going to have to move away from the HTC Messaging....
So funny update. I typed "thatd" and thats was the first option to come up and I thought Yay! it's fixed! Then I tried typing thats and thatd came up
Does anyone know of a registry or config file somewhere that I need to edit to get rid of thatd?!
Thanks for any help!
