Slow landscape/portrait change - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

got kaiser 2 weeks ago, overall great phone but it is a little slow.
particulary when oppening the keypad, it takes about 5+ seconds to change to landscape mode. and when it does it still slow (slow responce, particulary from keyboard) for another 10-15 sec.
is there any solution to this problem?
thanks

Thats indeed strange, mines responses instantly.
have u tried increasing font, glyph caches? That may help a lot!
FYI (experiment with numbers to get your own best results)
This stuff is included in kaiser tweak, but you really cant modify the numbers to your own!
Increase font cache
To increase the font cache, speeding up font rendering at the cost of a bit of memory:
HKLM\SYSTEM\GDI\GLYPHCACHE\limit = 16384 (DWORD decimal)
To change it back to the default:
HKLM\SYSTEM\GDI\GLYPHCACHE\limit = 8192 (DWORD decimal)
You can set the value to pretty much anything you like
Enable FileSystem cache
To enable the FileSystem cache, speeding up overall performance at the risk of the cache not being written on a sudden reset:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS\EnableCache = 1 (DWORD decimal)
To disable again:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS\EnableCache = 0 (DWORD decimal)
Note that by default, the cache size is zero, and you will see no effect. See "Increase FileSystem cache" to incease the cache size
Increase FileSystem cache
To increase the file system cache:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize = 4096 (DWORD decimal)
To return the file system cache to zero:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize = 0 (DWORD decimal)
You can set the value to pretty much anything you like
Increase FileSystem filter cache
To enable the file system filter cache, speeding up overall performance with file mangement:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\ReplStoreCacheSize = 4096 (DWORD decimal)
To return the file system filter cache to zero:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\ReplStoreCacheSize = 0 (DWORD decimal)
You can set the value to pretty much anything you like

hmm, i actually have those tweeks enabled, and have not noticed any change in performance of landscape mode.
what ROM do you have on your kaiser? if it's standard then which by which company?
i have UK vodafone one.

Today plugins
Have you installed any 3rd party today plugins? More importantly, are they on?
I had (still have, in a way... bear with me) this problem with SPB Diary.
Without it being represented on Today, the reorientation portrait-lanscape-portrait took maybe 2-3 seconds, with keys being immediately responsive. With Diary ON, it's closer to the 30-second mark, and keys remain unresponsive for another 10-15 seconds. GAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!
(and this even on a newly-HR'ed machine, mind you)
The problem went away once I started using SBSH Pocket Breeze instead, although it irked me having to buy another app to do the same thing, sigh...
What's funny is that my boss is using the very same incarnation of Kaiser and he has no problems whatsoever with SPB Diary...
So, I say you switch off everything bar HTC Home and try again. If it works well, then start experimenting with plugins, you will identify the culprit.
If it's NOT that... sry, no clue.

Thanks for the suggestion.
just tried disabling all today plugins, didnt do a thing.
it takes exactly 3-3.5 seconds to switch. keys become responsive pretty much instnatly but dont show up on screen for 4 seconds.
i did have spb diary installed but i hated the way it took up most of the screen so i deleted it.
i just need a simple, today/tomorrow meeting list that's all.
will give pocketbreeze a try.
i'm suprised to learn this is not a general prolem, i've seen 3 kaisers and all are slow when you open up the keyboard, but if some people dont have this problem then surely there is a way to fix it.

yup.
use their stuff.
sorry, but CNRM

I got the same problem, 3-4 sec for switchin portrait to landscape or viceversa.
I notice it as I used a PalmOS device previously and everything was almost istantaneous there.
It is really annoying.
Mine has ROM v 1.56.408.5
Any solution / patches?

Original OEM ROMs are known to have a lot of "bloat" installed that can cause overall system lag.
I am running NoThrills WWE based off of the most "official" WM 6.1 ROM to date, and of the 20+ ROMs I've flashed to date, it is the fastest performing ROM by far.

non stock
I'd flash new rom and radio and before installing cabs and changing settings to test the performance besides the normal performance settings and see what that does.

Speeding up displaying of windows, menu's...

Hey guys,
I find it a bit slow when i press on a button and a menu or window takes a 2/3 of a second to come up. It there any way to speed this up? i would ideally like the flicking through menu's to be as quick as possible.
Thanks.

Got this from google<3
Okay you can set them all to 32768, unless you need the overabundance of RAM which you would probably not use.

Speed Up Camera's Picture Taking Delay In Older ROMs

I know this has been covered before (somewhere), but I did a Google search and found nothing but my own post elsewhere. This has been made moot by most newer ROMs, which have this tweak or another built-in to speed up the camera.
I grew tired of having to wait 2.5 seconds or so for a picture to be taken with the Kaiser's camera, so I found the following regkeys and made the appropriate value changes:
Two DWORD values are in HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\Captparam. They are, CapKeyDelayTime and EnableCapKeyDelay.
To disable delay of picture being taken, change CapKeyDelayTime to 0 and EnableCapKeyDelay to 0.
CapKeyDelayTime is in milliseconds, so 2500 is 2.5 seconds. Change to your heart's content.
EnableCapKeyDelay is if you want to disable/enable the CapKeyDelayTime without changing its value. Disable/enable at your leisure.
Also of note is the CaptureTimer DWORD, which can be altered to increase or decrease the time the camera waits for timer pictures.
For those who do not have a registry editor, here are some helpful links:
PHM Registry Editor (free), Total Commander (free file explorer w/ registry editor), Resco Explorer 2007 ($29.95, free registry add-on)
A great tip that. i just made the changes and it make the camera almost useable !!
Thanks
hey thanks for the tip, everyone should do this! put this in the wiki, lots of people will benefit from this. thanks alot!

CapKeyDelayTime is set to 1500 by default in Dutty's Apr 09 ROM.
EnableKeyDelay is set to 0 by default in Dutty's Apr 09 ROM.
Maybe these two changes are part of what the HTC patch does to make the camera more useable.
WOW! this helps alot!
Thanks!
Hi there, great improvement for me but do you know if it is possible to change the resolution for sports or burst mode to at least 2Mpx???

I’ve been looking for the same thing as my 2 year old niece will not stay still for long enough. I use sports mode but 640*480 is ok on the phone but it would be nice if it was 1600*1200 or similar so I can print them.
Thank you very much!
it works
Change EnableDateFolder from 0 to 1
Adds date and time stamp to photos AND creates a folder for each day. Great if you're taking many photos as you'll have date time etc when taken. Great for a trip or other similar photos!
Change SportSpeedFast , SportSpeedMed, and SportSpeedSlow to control your burst speeds. Time again is in m-sec, so 125 = .125 seconds.
Change DefBurstCount to the amount of pictures you can take in burst mode.

Yeah, as stated in the first post, most users of newer ROMs don't need to bother with this, as the chefs know what they're doing. The HTC patch doesn't touch these settings, though.
As for an increased size of Sports Mode picture taking, the P7 key under HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\ is the controller of the Sports Mode. I tried setting the size to the same as is under the main picture setting P1, 1024x1748 (see the MainCamCaptSize and MainCamSupportCaptSize), but the camera locked up without saving the first picture. I also tried 768x1024 without luck. Seems it might be a problem with the speed of encoding? I'm not sure.

I have the original rom ver 1.81.415.4 WWE with CapKeyDelayTime set to 1500 and EnableKeyDelay set to 0 but the delay is almost 6 seconds..
I change the value of CapKeyDelayTime to 0, also tried EnableKeyDelay to 1, no luck
How can I capture instantly directly at button press..

Do you have the camera set to capture with half-press or full-press? I used to use full and my pictures would take 4-6 seconds to capture. With half-press, my camera snaps within 2 seconds.
Setting to half press and turning off shutter sound made a very big difference in lag time. Just be careful that without the shutter sound you still need to hold camera for a second after the focus locks (brackets turn green).
Changing these reg values made the camera even more responsive. Thanks!

You are right, its 2 second most of the time even if I am moving my hand, but still, I need an instant capture directly at button press..

TIP: How to make the Screen much more sensitive

You need to change the Following Registry Value:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\TouchPanel
Value = PressureThreshold
Change from the default dword:00000027
or 34.
to dword:000000f0
or 240 in decimal.
This is drastic improvment.
Enjoy,
Nadavi.
Nadavi, my value is 34 not 000000027?
How come?
What exacly improves?
Do you meen if you press some thing that you have to press less hard before it accepts it as a press???
Seems to make things smoother !
is this only for the diamond??? i know that its a diamond thread but can this work on a Touch?? my pressure threshold is 21977

Nadavi, thanks for clearing that up.
Awesome.
Thanks heaps,
Helps overcome the slight lack of sensitivity when using the included screen protector.
Now I get less accidental 'clicks' into my contacts when just trying to flick thru them.
Cheers,
ccg
In my TD there is only a string key, not a dword key.
So I changed the string name to "PressureThreshold Original". If the comming change is not working then you can easely change it to the original situation.
So I made a new dword key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\TouchPanel\PressureThreshold\
to dword: 240 in decimal.
And it works. Indeed better performance.
But now my question is; wat is the string doing with value 60... Iny ideas?
Does increasing the number make it more sensitive or less sensitive? I'm having trouble pressing the OK in the corner of the screen - is my screen faulty or "too used" or can this fix it?
gracias ..

Create a Scrollwheel app?

can someone out there create a scrollwheel app that makes it work for all apps, not just in a couple of apps?
great idea...
nice idea
What do you want to do with scroll wheel?
If you want to scroll the active app you can use your finger.
If you want to zoom in or out that's quite application specific which is not an easy task to do. (Config scrollwheel app for each application differently, maybe.)
Anyway the second one should be a good feature to use.
see & add reg HKLM/Software/HTC/SmartTouch/
you can use scrollwheel to any apps like jog.
Could you maybe give a more precise howto?
Yeah help us out here, I would like to know it too!? This would be great! Step by step for the noobies please!?

The registry there reads:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SmartTouch]
"Version"="1.00.31096"
"Threshold"=dword:00000008
"FirstThreshold"=dword:00000008
What should be added? I must say I'm a bit skeptic about this...
for example of RescoExplorer
Create key and value, as below
HKLM/Software/HTC/SmartTouch/RescoExplorer
(String Value) ClassName = RESCO_EXPLORER_CLASS
(DWORD Value) Mode = 4
(DWORD Value) WheelCount = 2
reset
you may use scrollwheel at RescoExplorer like jog.
if use other apps, you must know app's class.
RescoPhotoViwer's class = RESCO_PICVIEW_CLASS
InternetExplorer's class = IExplore
File Explorer 's class = FEXPLORE
CorePlayer's class = wCorePlayer
etc...
Dword Value "WheelCount"
1 = Movement of one every 36 degrees
5 = Movement of one every 180 degrees
10 = Movement of one every 360 degrees
Probably, you cannot delete created keys.
To delete it, stop SmartTouch Service.
HKLM/Services/SmartTouch
but...It doesn't seem to be so convenient...

yes pls! the wheel is useless!

problem with diamond tweak number two- boost performance / cachesize

reffering to the tweak list for the touch diamond;-
2. Boost TFL3D Performance --> HKLM\System\Storagemanager\Fatfs and change key Cachesize from 16384 to 32768
Ive been to Fatfs with PHM regedit and the value data in "cachesize" is displaying "0", shouldn't it be "16384" am I doing something wrong ?
Rom - 1.37.405.1.wwe, 12/6/08, protocol - 52.26a.25.09h
Will this tweak work with this rom?
Perhaps i should be using Advanced Config ?
couldn't find anything helpful in previous threads
any help is cool.
p.s., tried altering the "screen-off" setting, not much luck with that either
