I'm having this problem. And the sms delay on writting too. It is a real annoyance 'cause I can not write nice poems to my love anymore. :?
But I think would be better to open another thread. So I'm doing it...
PD: the prooooooooooooooooblemmmmmmmmmmmm with words repeating were showing on 2003SE also....
i also get it but only on wm5
annoyance
c'mon, people, nobody with a solution???
I have the same problem.
Some programs in WM5 tend to take up processor cycles, and appear to be causing the problem.
Problem is, there are MANY possible programs (causes).
For me, the most common cause is Internet Explorer. Go to "Memory" in Settings, and close all tasks. Then try using the keyboard again. If it works, then you know that's the cause. Then, you can try to narrow down the program that's the processor hog.
Good luck!
turn down the repeating speed, it is in start>settings>keyboard>repeat settings. set it low so it will not repeat like that
First of all, thanks for your answers!

Yeah, I thought so, anyway I'm having the same problem on the SMS window. It seems to do a redraw (or better, a recalc) every time I push a letter on my keyboard, and it looses words. Took me 'bout 10 times to get the right number on the 'To:' field. I was always getting +3423888888888 etc...

Didn't you guys are having this havoc on your devices??
I don't know what is happening with my baby
Any Ideas??
Maybe a little fix.
Also had a problem about the words repeating thing.
But that time my device is downclocked to 299mhz by that time.
I did a soft reset first then overclocked my device to 531mhz.
after writting a message it seem to have improved significantly.(But it still lags
for a second or half sometimes.)and the words repeating seems to be gone.
But im not totally quite sure.Still need to check it more.And tell you how's it going.
O and lastly im just wondering how come it's soo slow to open a message and switch to other messages?Unlike 2003 se which only takes a second or soo......
I'm using pocket hack master to over/downclock my device.

Ok, i'll try that....

The reson for the redraw, I think, is the number of characters in the message display at the bottom (i.e 1/168)
If I write an email the redraw problem is not present - if I swith to SMS it comes back...
Yeah, a clever think would be to switch this counter off. I haven't found it on the registry, nor a hack.
My question: if before it was ok, why change it?
Well anyway it is not the only reason for this word repeating problem. It appears on other programs also.
And no solution yet
Haven't had time to try brentchua solution...

stop complaining... if u don't like it just downgrade back to 2003 se and everything will work. You should realise that the blue angel wasn't made for WM5. That it works with WM5 is great...but as long as there is no official release u shouldn't complain..... It's just the way it is...

1- I'm complaining because this problem was already happening on 2003se (please, read above).
2- After so many problems with bluetooth, AD2P, etc, don't you think we deserve more attention from the ones that sold this devices to us?
3- If I stay on WM5 is because I realize the BA performs just ok on this OS. I'm using it mainly for work purposes.
4- Complaining is also a way of start doing things later. Something has to come first... :!: I've complained to I-mate about this problem when I had the original 2003se. No answer to date. That's why I decide turn back here and do this wonderful upgrades to my device.
What I find is this forums (as all of them in the 'net) are quite hard to search and find answers. Somehow we should find the answers given and put them in a common place (the good answers!!) i.e. the Wiki!
Anyway, what I'm looking for is answers and share them...
etc-.
ad2p
My keyboard problems seems to have almost dissapeared after turning off the word correction option. It seems is a CPU intensive program or so... Inside Word, however, the problem sometimes arises...

Any ad2p with blueangel and wm5 yet, boys? I can't find anything but this:

I´m having again this problem. I´ve done what have been suggested about changing the registry values for adjusting the priority values... still having this problem.
I use the device for writing a lot and any help would be very handy.
Anyone, please?
Thanks!
problem is fixed in newer roms which pagepool size have been increased.
try the AKU3.5 ROMs
Hi tut,
that was a great rom you have made. I am compltly enjoyin it. I am going to do it on my pda 2k too which is running on 2003 SE edition, i bought xda2s because of the low microphone problems in pda2k, noone could hear what i speak- i had to yell,drilled a bigger hole at the mic, still didnt work. I upgraded your WM5 on my xda 2s. works like a dream. Even the speaker icon problem is solved once the handsfree is removed from startup. I have only one problem which is annoying me:
When i select lock all buttons except power - the buttons like mail still do work. It used to happen all the item in the previous mamiach version. Now it happens once every three times or so. Its very annoying as i use the phone in a case and into my pocket and when power it on all kinds of programmes are on and the phone is usually hangs at this time.
Can i use the same patch which is buttons or something like that into your version? Because it did work in the previous version by mamiach.
And do you think mic problem on my pda2k will be solved with this 1.3version? As iv heard that mic has to be replaced or something for it to work well.
Regards,
Varun

Hey Guys.....i was referred to this website by the HTC customer care......
I am in serious trouble.....
I bought this new tilt which had the At&t rom and worked really great.....Dont know what got into me.....I read a lot about custom roms and I installed Duttys official WM 6.1 after installing the Flash Hard SPL......It was perfect except the phone call function wasnt working any more.....I mean when I called my home number....i got the ring, but when the phone is picked up i couldnt hear anything nor did anybody on the other side.....I tried this many times on different numbers....
Realizing the mistake I downloaded the latest tilt rom from the HTC website and installed it......The phone restarted fine....screen alignment.....showed the today screen and then it goes through all the AT&T customization......The phone restarts after the customization.....shows the AT&T initial screen and then the 3G animation......after that it goes to a very dim dark blue blank screen.......the phone is on...the key lights turns on when clicked.....but the today screen doesnt boot up......This is were I am rite now.....stuck with this blank dark blue screen......The phone goes to standby more after about 1 min I guess.....and when the phone is waken up from the standby mode I see a screen with a mixed color screen.....I am not talking about the red blue green boot loader screen....this is colors all over the screen.....each pixel is different color.
I dont know what to do.....
Please if anyone can give me some advice and help me out......
Thank you so much in advance.....

ummm what happens when you do a hard reset?
To perform a hard reset place two fingers, one of the left softkey and one on the right, and insert the stylus into the reset hole to the right of the usb port.
let the phone reboot and tell me what happens.

shouldn't be a radio issue if he downloaded the latest tilt rom from htc website because a radio is attached with that rom.
Sorry....forgot to mention that.....I did do hard reset by holding down the soft keys and by inserting the stylus......It goes through the entire cycle of reloading....today screen....customization and finally I end up with the blank screen I talked about before which comes right after the windows screen at the startup.....

after you inserted the stylus while holding down the two softkeys "calender" "contacts", did the device inform you to hit the "send" key on two occasions?
yea, i noticed that......but what he described is what happens when you have an incompatible radio.....
the only thing i can think of is......the radio from hell.....

good call but did dutty ever put it with one of his roms? He wouldn't be that mean
maybe he can tell us what it says when it boots up...the R G D numbers..since he probably cant go to start and device info for us
R 1.65.17.10
G 25.83.40.02H
D 1.62.00.00
This is what I see at the startup....at the bottom of the screen with a At&t background.....

well you installed the radio from hell before you installed dutty's rom thats why you couldn't hear anything.
Now you need to remove it or find a compatible rom.

I followed exactly like it said in the link and Hurray.......my phone is alive......
Thanku all once again.....
The best forum ever....
Guys did i have that phone call problem because of the hard SPL or Duttys Official WM6.1. If it was because i installed the hardspl first, can I go back to Duttys Official WM6.1 without any future problems by just flashing the ROM with duttys WM straight skipping the hardspl step..
I really liked that version....but wud like to make phone calls obviously....I know the mistake is from my part....screwed up somewere....cause I see so many ppl using custom roms without any problems...
Please tell me what could be the best solution....
Thanks a lot...
hi
plz tell me if any one hv solution for this.
I hv m1000 wid Broken screen which i hv replaced today and updated my m1000 from WM5 to WM6. But the Start Menu takes 20-25 seconds to pop up. All other Menu like Tap and hold are also taking same time to popup. volume Bubble aslo hv same issue and there is no sound. Every thing else is working fine like file explorer, other programs , phone ETC.
I hv tried these
1. Switch back to old LCD .(No luck)
2. Switch back to different wm5 and wm6 rom. (same issue)
3. Switch back to wm3 Rom.(Every thing works well)
4. Too many Hard Reset.(no luck)
5. Battery Removal for long time.(no luck)
6. DOC re partitioning.(no luck)
GOT MY DEVICE FIXED
Thanks to all here for their support. I got my device fixed. Problem was in my New Lcd it has a faulty Belt which only works if some pressure is applied on it so i putted a rubber behind it and now it is working. But bad luck is that i hv given the Positive feedback for that LCD on ebay.
hi
Ye i had the same issue. Keep reflashing until a rom gets to a decent speed then reflash back to the rom you want.
Or it might be that the rom is not for himalaya?
Definately keep reflashing.
it worked with me
BTW: The rom in the signature picture is wrong i think.
My rom is WM 6.5 CE OS 5.2.23409.5.4.0 by zjw831

I hv reflashed alot but the problem is still there But One of Ather's Rom is working little good. at that rom Start Menu is working But no Sound and Other POPUP Menus are still Very Slow.
And signatures are not wrong cause i hv 4 devices.
it could be a faulty RAM, or you screwed the device too hard or too lose, try to check that

hi nd thnks for ur support.But how a faulty device works in WM3.and will a faulty Ram behave differently with diff. roms?
It´s because diffent parts of the memory are used. Look at aeroflylubys kitchen. He has got an equal issue with broken ram. He can´t flash/use WM6.5 anymore. On WM 6.1 everything works fine. Strange, but not impossible! Good Luck.
PS: As Senior I guess you know how to hard reset, as it differs from Wm2k3!
hey I hv just open my device nd chk for any physical damage. But nothing is there. And after re-assembling
1. Sound Works.
2. No slowdown at all.
3. Backlight Goes permanently off. (during boot also)
I hv tried the wm3 rom now it has sound but no backlight and no TOUCH in wm3.

All of a sudden the power button on my HTC Opal just refuse to work.
I had this problem a few months ago but it started to work within a day normally.
So right now the only ways i can use my phone is keeping it on without suspending power,plugging into charger every now and then to wake,or using the handsfree,or call my cell from another and wake it...im using Evolution-beta(6.5.3) rom..
I would love to get the power button working again.
Anyone has pics on how to open the Opal???I am even ready to physically open it an clean anything if required

You'd ruin the warranty dude...you stay in Mumbai,there is a htc service center at Borivali West in Thakkar Shopping Centre,S.V.Road. S.G.Infotech is the name and here goes the phone number-02228338063.
Call them and quote the warranty.Better not ruin anything.Before you do so,please flash the stock rom in my signature and do not overclock it as they will realise that u have violated the t&C of warranty.Just trying to save your money.They also have service centre at Andheri.Call and you may know.
thanks shr...but will have to wait for exams to finish to service my phone.
In the meantime you could use the following registry tweak to turn on your phone using any button (not just the power button):
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd
set the "defaultkeylock" value to 0, and soft reset. You'll be able to wake your device up with any button (the D-Pad and the Answer/End buttons).
To lock your device in your pocket use S2U2 or the default Windows Mobile lock. I prefer S2U2 because you can set it to turn off your phone in 5 seconds, so if the phone wakes up accidentally in your pocket you won't waste your battery power.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Well, it works for me, and I'm using the same ROM (Evo Ultimate Beta)!
Why it doesn't work for you? Are you using any other lock programs? Did you soft-reset after the tweak?

It works only if i press any key within a certain time.
I guess my power button is always internally pressed because I get the warning about saving data even just after resets.

Thanks, like I've said in the title - you saved my Viva!
@Falcon_16
I was having the same problem. Phone still under warranty so... I hoped it will be repaired (a dirty contact I've presumed).
Nope! It wasn't the switch fault. It was a corroded ribbon connector on the MB. Not serviceable, the only choice being a MB replacement, not under warranty hence there are corrosion signs. That meaning over 150 USD...
So, thanks again GFX for the advice, the phone seems now still usable.
(meantime I've bought a Wildfire...)

You're welcome ivan_who. Glad the tip helped you keep your phone in a usable state.
I found that trick in the net somewhere, so I cannot take direct credit for it. I merely copied it here because I thought it could help someone, and it did.
