Slow keyboard response in landscape mode?

Hello again,
Some little faults are beginning to annoy me now with my kaiser, i have the official HTC rom (you would think this would be the most stable) and whenever i type on the keyboard, it takes seconds for it to update on the screen.
I have no apps running in the background, can anybody help? or is it time to look at a new rom?

Im Having exactly the same prob mate. can anyone help?

That just started to happen on my week old Vario III (T-mob version of Kaiser) too! GRRRR

pretty much, if i cant solve this, i will get rid of my kaiser. And go back to a normal phone. Atfirst it was good, but now ive realised its as unreliable as my old XDA Mini S (wizard).
I am getting lots of niggly faults, the screen takes 4 seconds to rotate, sms slows down the phone when receiving, incoming calls always revert to ring only, not vibrate.

GPS stop when I switch the screen off

Hi to all,
excuse me if I open a discussion allready post but I tried with the search function and I din't found anythings about my proble.
The last week I tried to log the GPS to geotag same photos that I was shooting.
I used VisualGPSce and all was fine untill I switched off the screen to save battery, it lost the signal till I reactivate the screen, I had the same problem with other GPS utils to log.
I'm pretty sure that before the GSP was logged with the screen off to.
I updated the radio rom, my configuration is.
[Radio ROM]1.56.70.11
udK 6.1 R1 Lizard WM6 OS 5.2.1933 Build 18533.0.7.0)
Any idea ?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.

I have yet to find a solution for your GPS problems in TomTom.
This is what I do to save battery power in TomTom.
1. Turn on the safety feature (example, above 70 kph. It displays a static screen that uses much less battery power than the live moving maps do.
2. Turn down the back light.
3. Plug it into the 12v when in a vehicle.
I use NoniGPS and it is possible to have this app running in the background and switch off the screen to save battery life with a little app called Screen Switch. This app will not work with TomTom.

Hi, thanks for the answer.
I don't have the problem with TomTom but I need to screen off while logging GPS, so you solution could be ok for me, I'll try it.

have a look at PsShutXP. You can turn the screen of with this, there are a few other options as well. Its a free program, and is skinable too!

off
in tomtom, there is a feature that you can turn off the screen.... it will dim followed by the PDA settings

Thanks to all for the hel and the answers, I tried some ways and some softwares that you suggest me and I discover that the problem is present only when I shut down the screen using the shortcut AE Button Plus, using then same function in HomeScreen PlusPlus UI the GPS don't stop to work.
Thanks again.
Ciao.

GPS Standby Hack

Hey guys,
Well I have just got the new Hyper Dragon rom on my phone and I am looking for a possible hack...
I am going on holiday in a few days skiing in the Alpes and have a GPS tracking tool called SatSKI, its pretty wicked and tracks your days activities.
Problem is, when it goes into standby or the screen is off then the GPS goes off, even though the program is still running. I had this same issue with TomTOM a while ago.
Any help would be great.
Cheers guys
Mike

Look into TrackMe, it has a boatload of features and has a Screen Off feature which keeps the phone on but turns the screen off for battery savings.
You can also try DeltaLock. But you gotta make sure the phone doesn't turn off, so you'll also have to modify the Power settings.

up
in the same boat, would like to run my satski on the kaiser with the screen off, but obviously keep the program and GPS running?
The above 2 programs are no good, as satski has the piste maps, which is what you want to use it for

You can run Trackme in addition to your ski program in the worst case...

Satski and Switching off

Hi the way to keep your phone on is to change the settings on switing off a program after a period of time , in setting programs normally are set to switch off after 30 min if not used . Also be sure to use the Satski Lock screen in the Satski Menue this will also save your battery.

Xperia doesn't turn off Backlight sporadically

Hi @all,
i hope you can help me with my issue.
I searched very long here and at google, but i didn't find any solution for this.
My xperia is set to "turn off unit after 1 Min", and no dimming light.
Now it is so, that in 49 of 50 cases is works probably, but in 1 case, te display doesn't turn off.
Backlight runs and runs and runs, till i turn unit off manually.
When problem starts, only a softresets helps to turn it back to normal
proberties.
I didn't install any Tf3D, oder any other profil programm.
Can someone help me please?
ps, sorry for my bad english, once i was very good, but i didn't speak it very long time.
Thanks

Are there any programs which is running? any cables which are connected while it happens?

No, sometimes it happens while phoning (then it dimms, but it doesn't turn off), then sometimes after looking for Messages, then sometimes after syncing. I can't repeat this issue. I even don't know why it happens ?
Is there something i can look in the registry?
Only thin i installed is
Calender+,
Task+,
SPB Insight,
Clifford Xperia Tweak (only thin is i switched off the Threaded SMS Look),
SPB Wallet,
Sprite backup
The Rest i run from SD Card, which was pre-installed from my old unit (Kaiser).
I put it out from Kaiser, then put in in Xperia, then i rebuild the links to programm folder.
so i saved the install Progress.

You said while phoning the light dims but it doesn't turn off. perhaps 1 of your config is set to "do not turn off screen while phoning"

You mean in Xperia Tweaks?
Sorry, no it isn't set so. I wonder because i used google and searched in all languages, and no one ever had this problem ?
Is tere any Key in registry what helps you to see, what can be the problem?

I had have this problem only when i tried an new Program like SPB Shell or something like this. Some programs are disabling the option for automatic turn off in the energy management. reenabling it fixed it evertime.
Another strange issue with my X1: every night an midnight it turns on - and after 1 minute (0:01 o'clock) it turns off. oO

But i have not installed SPB Shell, other Programms that do this?

Serious TF3D - Manila Issue...

I experience this two times..
When do some usual thinks, something happened.. and TD2 not responding.. Soft reset.. Restart.. and Manila never start until hard reset.. Try everything.. Wait for a long time, soft reset, remove battery.. nothing works..
.. and i'm use latest asian 1.40 rom.. and also new radio..

I have noticed with my Diamond 2 that manila does freeze from time to time. However if I just leave it for 10-20 seconds all is fine.

Yep, manila freezes up on me a lot, especially when I'm trying to do something important quickly!

freeze
do you guys also have trouble typing when turned into landscape modus for messaging?
it always takes up to half a minute to respond accurately!
this is a little bit annoying.
(and sometimes I even have weird issues when turning, e.g. keyboard is only half there and in wrong position. issue is gone when turned back to portrait and turned to landscape the second time...even hard-reset didn't change anything...seems to be manila-related)

So you've never suffered a lag of a few seconds when using manila? Wow I get lag quite a lot, especially going to the music tab. If I'm playing through all my music in random order it takes forever just to display the current album art.
I also get a delay in keyboard feedback sometimes which is infuriating.
Try rotating the phone to landscape when replying to an SMS and count how many seconds the phone takes to react!

I sometimes get slowdown the the predictive text wheni recieve a text at the same time fromt he person i am replying too, but only for a few seconds. I have been usign the phone since the 7th, never had to soft reset, but have had to turn off/on (im guessing it comes to the same affect). And manila is just TouchFLO 3d right?

I have never noticed any lag in Manila, and I use my device intensively.

Oh come on! Try viewing or flicking through high resolution photos or viewing the music tab when you've got a long playlist or sliding across tabs as soon as you've unlocked the phone, the list is endless!

Try taking out the memory card. See if it still hangs?

It's a BIG improvement on previous TFL from Stock ROMs on Diamond and HD... I can tell you. It still obviously has it's moments as do most UIs but Windows Mobile 6.1 isn't the smoothest of OSs either so... Once we get cooking it will be much better that's for sure and I agree with your comment on another thread here, that once WM6.5 is out perhaps TFL will be redundant... but we'll see. In the meantime each to his own.

Hi there,
I haven't seen any lags on my device either...
Rom versions are different depending in our countries. That's were the difference is, I guess
HastaSSSS
P.S.- Nice to see you here, christonge. Long time no see, since the Diamond gps lag thread...
