Why is my Kaiser so Laggy?!? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I think its a little bit toooo laggy and I'm upset with this. Is there anyway to make my application switches a bit faster and when i go to landscape mode and back, or reply to a new message, it takes forever to get to the next screen...
help please? Thanks in advance.

having same problem.
takes 3-6 seconds to go from portrait to landscape. was rather dissapointed when i saw that iphone does it instantly. it should be same here.

so theres no fix to this?

well, from what i can gather, all screen functions are done software wise because there are no 3d drivers avaliable.
once those are out i'd imagine functions like portrait/landscape switch would become must faster.

Give kyphur's XDA-Live ROM a try. It's incredibly quick.

wow my switches instantly(roughly 1 second) and gives a cool animation. only time it would not do that is if you are insufficient of RAM! but than again my kaiser is tweaked.
So try these steps:
close all programs with a handy task manger like WkTask[personal best, displays all running programs in the taskbar like a desktop so you can alt-tab between stuff](or htc w.e u perfer)[sometimes programs stay active in the background that just take up ram, might aswell close it since they normally start up as quickly] If you dont notice a performance gain, try the following tweaks...
increase glyph, font cache etc. You can use Kaiser tweak to do that, but i perfer to do it manually(so i can insert my own values instead of low medium high) than soft reset. [play around with numbers to get your own "best" value]
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

thanks for the well written response.
One questions though. What shte DWORD decimal after every command?

Its pretty much the value type, Decimal i believe. It should be defaulted to dword so just change the value. Oh yeah, and i copy pasted the reg tweaks so its not really a well written response!

You might also want to try running Dutty's latest rom. It's quite fast.
What rom are you running right now anyway?

funny thing is, with my t-mobile chip in, its fast... with the O2 chip, its slower

well, i dont know what rom im running. I'm running everything stock from att except i customized the home screen w/ some plugins and such.

I have the same problem. I have tried all kinds of tweaks and increasing cache and it is still slow. Sometimes taking 7-10 seconds to switch from portrait to landscape.

No seriously,, you may want to try and re-flash to a HTC 'type' ROM that you will find on this forum.
Doing that, you have to take into consideration that you will lose your operator settings and have to search for the Network settings cab also.
It looks very much like the AT&T ROM is a very early version slowed even more by AT&T's bloatware!

Even with a stock rom my T-Mob was quiet quick. Takes under 2 sec for a portrait - landscape switch with dutys latest rom.

Seriously, any of them.
They all are a little different, they all have different applications, it really comes down to a personal preference.

I understand but is there a link to all the different roms?

Hey what's up Skyyline? I'm gonna try to help you out here.. First thing you need to do is HardSPL your phone. To do this, go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679
After you have done that, go here and decide which rom is best for you..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=378
(You will have to sift through the threads to find the roms. Look for threads started by: dutty, schaps, sleuth, custel, _alex_, helmi_c, kyphur, ect)
To be honest they are all very fast and much better than the one ATT shipped.
I hope all this helps you out.

BA WM5 extra registry speed tweaks

I ran across some extra registry tweaks at Aximsite for the X51v which seems to have improved performance on my BA. The extra reg settings are
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize=4096
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\EnableCache=0x1(1)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\ReplStoreCacheSize=4096
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\ MSFlash\FATFS\DataCacheSize=4096
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\ MSFlash\FATFS\Flags=40
The first two registry entries are already included in the wm5 fixes cab by mamaich but with a diferent value for the cache. I have been using the 4096 cache value myself already. I also tried the extra settings in bold and found it gave another boost to the PPC speed. Here is the original thread http://www.aximsite.com/boards/showthread.php?t=104366&page=1&pp=20 Anyone else like to try and post feedback on their results? If confirmed maybe it can be added to the wm5 cab file.
Edit: Can anyone try setting this reg key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\ MSFlash\FATFS\DataCacheSize=2048 instead of 4096 as above. For me it seems to work slightly better.
I also tried changing these two entries for PIE, unfortunately PIE runs so slow i cant tell if it has any positive effect
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
"MaxConnectionsPerServer"=dword:10(dec) - default 4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
"MaxRequestThreads"=dword:10(dec) - default 5
1. BA still works
2. Noticeable faster.
this seting realy speedUP BlueAngel running WM 2005 ????
noticed a a fair amount of speed increase in my BA, nice trick, i hope more tweaks like these come up
baniaczek, which reg keys did you apply?
For anyone else trying this, please state which registry entries you applied.
applied all reg settings to my system, but I guess the first 2 are the ones that made a significant difference in my device
Is this a general WM2005 tip?
Is it worth trying on Universal?
UPDATE
Did this on my Universal (XDA Exec) and it seems faster, where did you see the main speed increases...
Wow
Noticable faster.
Thanks.

All of them.
-----------------------
Of course not everything goes faster.
Example - Settings menu. First time since reboot - no difference. Second time - very fast. Setting/Phone - like a dream.
File manager - looking into \windows - very fast.
regedit - refresh tree. Very good.
Green key [phone] - very, very, very nice.
Starting programs - first time - probably no difference.
BA WM5 extra registry speed tweaks - maybe not
I've just tested this using GXMark on an o2 xda iis with wm5 and patch 3.
It's also worth noting I'm running the overclocking util that was posted here a while back.
The results are:
Before applying change: 1755
After applying change: 1735
How accurate GXMark is for determining "perceived" benefits over actual ones I don't know.
Anyways, thats my £0.01
Very nice! Changing from using the WiFi to GPRS as Internet connetion takes a few seconds to apply. It took ten! Also other operations seems noticeably faster. Good catch indeed!
Interesting. Speed was my main problem with WM5; i might install it again sometimes in the future...
Nice, my SX66 seems a bit faster too now.
The "EnableCache" was set but the others where not.
What about the sound problems? e.g. the skipping in WMP/TCPMP?
My Hero!!
CacheSize was 256 and it was very slow, by the time the phone rang (made a noise) and you pressed the green telephone key the divert on no-answer had kicked in.
After all the above settings being applied it's turbo charged by comparison!!!
Didn't notice that because nobody called me yesterday, but you're right!
Speed in sms writing still slow? i went back to 2003se cause of that..
I'm tempted to try wm5 again but the sms problem makes the device unusable...
Nope, doesen't look like that.
Just re-flashed WM5v3 and applied this registry entries. Awesome that's all I can say, thanks dude. I'm testing the sound with TCPMP and no skips so far. If it stays as good as it is now, I'm back to WM5.......
any feedbacks about the Pocket IE on showing the missing pictures? I need to know, otherwise I won't upgrade still it needs some tweaks..

Diamond Tweaks

Hey guys i used the advanced config and customized the File system cache to 8mb and file system filter cache to 131072 ....there is massive improvement in touchflo 3d and in the other functions of the phone.
Mate nice tip, thats HEAPS faster
Advanced Config? Is that a feature in the phone (only had it a few hours) or a third party app?
I just D/l it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317070
Hi, which version do you download and run, there seem to be a few variants! Thanks!
I am no expert but I just downloaded the latest one, seemed to work fine

Schaps_AdvancedConfig_v2.1.0.0.CAB (396.4 KB, 20753 views)
Can someone try spb benchmark to see what gain we have in speed?
Huge improvements! Touch Flo stuff flies now!
its interessting to see that this tweak increases the performance so much, wonders me why htc doesnt enable it by default.
I was seriously considering selling this phone if there was no way to pick up the speed, I didn't even bother installing ll the ussual stuff until this.
Hey guys i also did a registry optimization with sktools and i think there is also some performance gain also...i think my Diamond starts to shine......

HTC Diamond black icons problem

I've installed a few games, and randomly, a few of these icons on my PDA turns black. As in it retains the shape, but just becomes pure black. SOft reseting solves the problem for a while, but after a period of time it randomly becomes black again.
What i want to know is:
1) does anyone know the cause of this. The stuff i installed are all VGA compatible and i play em with no problem
2) Should i be worried? Do i wait for an update, or should i claim warranty?
I have the same problem, everytime I install an application,
it's icon turns into black, I have format and retry the diamond many time, but still got this problem.
I try to install one program at a time, then soft reset it each time, then the icon restore back...
Don't know what is wrong.
It might be VGA related. I had the same problem and i have a previous version from you. The program works without a problem but the icon was a bit fuzzy in the beginning but after a while they turned out ok
yea but after a while it becomes fuzzy again

Most of them work properly. I haven't had to make any changes to my Touch.
The proper UK version of the Touch Diamond will also probably work properly too. However, 'properly' isn't good enough for most people here - we want AWESOME.
Increase the Icon Cache and soft reset:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\GLYPHCACHE]
"limit"=dword:00020000
Note: The dword 00020000 is hexadecimal which is equivalent to dword 131702 decimal.
KOR!

hey i changed to 131702 but its 0x20276 not 20000
doesnt fix the problem
bump this major bug for attention
IMPORTANT UPDATE (regarding black icons): It appears that the cause of our ugly black icons is not our VGA screen, but Touch Flo 3D itself. Looks like its a bit buggy. So we'll have to wait for a proper rom update regarding it (or perhaps someone can come up with a registry fix). Don't believe me? switch off your Touch Flo 3D, and soft reset your PDA. All icons should turn back to normal. Also, with Touch Flo 3D off, you can expect better battery life, as well as a significant increase in speed for your pda
Woo...Bugs in TouchFLO 3D. Oh well, at least HTC will be updating it for a while. That should be interesting...

They didn't do that for the Kaiser *cough* Drivers *cough*
Drivers are a more serious problem. UI problems are normally easy to fix. In other threads, people have already begun tweaking to improve TouchFLO 3D's performance...

In theory, yes, but whether HTC will do anything at all remains to be seen...
I think I might have found a workaround for this issue.
1st... I have increased the Icon Cache.
2nd... I switched off the TouchFlow 3D today plugin
3rd... I did a soft reset
Now the icons are displayed correctly and are cashed correctly.
4th... I switched the TouchFlow 3D today plugin on
The cashed icons remain nice now and will not turn black again, because the are cashed.
To increase the Icon Cache, use a registry editor and change
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\GLYPHCACHE]
"limit"=dword:00020000
Note: The dword 00020000 is hexadecimal which is equivalent to dword 131702 decimal.

Camera Touch Diamond

I think that the camera sucks in the diamond. All pictures blurry as soon as the object u taking a picture on moves just a little bit. So my question is, can i change the shutter speed on the camera?
I went into advanced options on the camera application and set it to "Super Fine" and it looks a lot better.
@ at All
here a quicktip from german forum:
Go into registry
HKLM/Software/HTC/Camera/Captparam/
and set
CapKeyDelayTime = 15 (old=1500)
CaptureTimer = 50 (old=5000)
and it may be better.
This works very fine on my O2 Diamond with german ROM.
greetz
pego2007
YES!
That was exactly what I was looking for! It worked perfectly, Thank you!
yes! thats i´m waiting for. thanks!
i see very minimal difference. Up close still focuses just fine. Why aren't these values there by default? I have a feeling it has to do with stability, although I haven't had any issues whatsoever.
nice find.

thanks for the fix.. i'm going to try it
i didnt know the camera will take THAT long to focus until yesterday when i was trying to take a pic.. took like 20 seconds b4 it takes it.. lol
can someone provide step by step instructions to get to the registry so I can try this out. I really want to get my camera working without blurring.
just to let you all know, if you use Sport or Burst mode, changing the CaptureTimer to equal 50 will cause both modes to crash when used (and actually freeze up the phone, requiring a soft reset). I haven't played around with changing 5000 to any other values (other than 0), so anyone with time is free to test out which value is stable.

Typing too slow

I find that my phone can't keep up with typing when I'm writing an SMS. I don't think I type that fast but it constantly has to catch up, the screen is usually 2 or 3 words behind me when I type.
I'm using the stock MMS program MMS Composer Version 5.2.0.22. Can anyone recommend some other MMS program or some tips on how to improve it's speed. The program itself is slow in general as well, constantly freezes for a few seconds and stuff like that.
Very strange!...
Also, this the second X1 I've had and both do the exact same thing.
Any suggestions?
\HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\InitialDelay
check that value and maybe decrease it (e.g. to 0), not sure if it helps but worth a shot

A* for your contribution to solving the problem!
and i'd install Advanced Config and increase some of the performance settings there like the glyph cache to 32KB and File System Cache to 8MB and filter chahe to 16384
This worked for me so might be worth a try
Draken, just tried that and it didn't help. It may have helped a bit but still lags behind quite a bit.
comeradealexi, I've had all those settings turned up for months so I can't do that.
I hope someone can help me fix this.
I may just want to flash my phone but I can recall when I did it with my last X1 it didn't help.
