sms text box freezing after replying to msg - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is there a fix to this text msg freeze after i reply to it ? i heard its cause of the cache or something on the xperia. could i simply have my msg's on my sotrage card instead of my phone memory? what are some registry tweaks i can use with total commander and if u guys can point me to the right direction for this? i have tried the search but no luck for the text message freeze.

I know this is an old thread and no one replied but I too wonder if there is a fix.
Its annoying when I read/reply to a text message and close that conversation it freezes for like 20s to a minute for me when i try to go out to my text message window. and then from there sometimes it freezes for another 20s to a minute when I try to go to my home screen. I notice this only happens when I read a text or reply to a text to someone that I have a lot of text messages saved from.
If this doesnt make sense I can try and take a video of it and post it

Don't allow a huge build-up of old text messages. The more you have, the longer the pause, it seems. I wish there was a way to automatically delete SMS'es older than 'x' days.
I noticed the problem when I switched to WM6.5.

same problem here

If you are using WM6.5, use the newer version. I've got Christian's 3.904 Clean installed and the pause is almost non-existent compared to older WM6.5 ROMs.

yeah, the newer 6.5s don't have this issue (runnning Valkyrie LEO 5.5 and don't have the slow inbox anymore)

cool, im going to try out one of the new ones. I hate waiting for a minute after replying to a text.

Im trying Christians clean rom and I still have the lag with my text messages. And I know its only with the people who I have a lot of text messages for but I dont think 75-100 text messages is that much.

Like I said, you shouldn't allow a buildup of many messages. Sometimes I wish I could know what the hell a WM phone is doing when we sit there and wait forever after pressing a function.
Which Christian clean ROM are you using. The problem went away when I went to the 3.904. I think he's up to 4.001 now.

Im using the latest one, the 4.001
I guess I have to delete my messages. Kind of sucks though since when I had stock WM6.1 it wasnt like this lol.
I remember a while back someone said its possible to change the save location of your text messages to your Storage card, will that make a difference in that freeze/lag?
Thanks

Open SMS as read only from TF3D Messages tab

...I havent disabled ms threading yet in text messages but one thing that does annoy me is that when I click on the message from touch flo...it goes straight into a reply....is there a way to force it to open as a read only and then reply with threading enabled? Its a real shame that the message tab in TF3D doesnt support scrolling of messages isnt....anyone got any insight?
If you prevent the keypad from automatically popping up then the text will still be readable even in reply mode. One of the tweaking/config programs has an option for this, can't think which one right now.

Ok I'll have a dig around for that.....Im guessing disabling threading is prob the only solution...
Is there a way of modifying touch flo such that when you read them in the sms touch flo tab you can scroll...i.e. if you have a long message it seems to be the only way to read it is in the threaded reply...which I hate....have to say for something so fundamental as texting the current method makes a meal of it....this is my first WM Device and I like to read sms, in full, then goto reply...not just reply by default.....its too fiddly!
Turn off threaded sms.. u can do that with the diamondtweak tool..

When you click on an sms in tf3d, it will show you the full sms, without a reply box..

Excellent..thank you....I kind of like the threading....but....I dont like the way it works in that a click on touchflo takes you straight to reply rather than read>then reply...
So this problem is just down to the mechanics of WM6.1 Threading?

Sorry kinda misread ur post.. I dont think there is a possibility to use this semi-threaded sms option.. Looked into it a while ago, but maybe there are now.. I don't know.. I would like that option also..

text messaging issues... maybe

I've had my Kaiser (tilt blah) for about 3 months now, and most of my issues I've solved off this forum through .cab downloads, or just becoming unretarted, but I have some questions about the default text program that I havent been able to answer myself... Everytime you send a message, you get a "message sent" notification that interrupts pretty much everything you're doing after your message. Is there a way to turn it off? Maybe just have a sound confirming it was sent? The other thing is sometimes when I text, the text input box at the bottom of the screen doesn't scroll with the words, making it impossible to see what you're typing or if you made any mistakes. Is it my phone? Or has someone created a patch so fix such things? (both). And that guy that said WM for this phone sucks it a waste of life. This is the best OS for a phone. Just may ned some encouragement from time to time, but It doesnt suck.

Nothing new in the new official HTC ROM???

Everything is quiet like the grave... I haven't heard or read a single word if there is anything new in this rom except the tiny bug fixes announced by HTC...
Anybody who already upgraded, have you noticed something new???
Hey
Apart from the official line heres what ive noticed (in twelve hours)
1. Sliding Bar answer on incoming calls
2. Text input keys are smaller so that you can actually see whats on the screen when youre writing (sic)
3. Ever so slight speed improvement on finger sliding
4. Video Call re-replaced with contacts (life saver)
5. Might just be me but the fonts seem sharper and slightly smaller.
6. Add a word in text messaging for example now gives a tick and a cross instead of "add"
Just random little things Ive noticed but as they say, its the little things that count eh!
no more flipping envelope when going to mail it's just there...
and some speed improvements, but in winmo only (not touchflo).
hey just a couple more
7. When connecting to PC via USB you get a 3rd choice - internet sharing (as well as active sync and disk drive)
8. HTC flo text message section now has a forward option as well as reply and delete - no need to view all messages to forward
ill keep you posted (or not if no one is interested)
Thanks for the replies
I feel like the Sliding Bar on answering calls helped me decide to upgrade, even though I'll loose the flipping envelopes
Sliding Bar is good
Ability to forward text message from Touch flo is good
The rest are the icing on the cake!!!
Good luck - I had a bit of a scare with my upgrade last night - it stopped on 60% and told me the image file was corrupt. Worked second time though from the same file???
First bug: if you have activated a security PIN (like me) you can't block the phone keeping pressed the phone down button. The screen goes black for a fraction of second but the phone doesn't block.
Another thing I didn't notice before (so I'm not sure if it was the same in previous versions): you can add only 15 persons to your favorite contacts (the "Add to Favorites" buttons just disappears). BTW, is there any tweak to increase this limit?
its always been 15
I use speed dials - easier and possibly limited to 100 (not sure)
The favourites has always annoyed me - you cant seem to change the order in which they appear and they look boring without a picture (IMO)!
There's also a new Java engine, better than the old one. At least better for Opera Mini 4.2, fonts are now bigger and easier to read.
A recommended update.

My envelopes are flipping fine.... just as they always have!
And for anyone's who's interested; if you've been using any of the cooked ROM's which have been released recently, you won't notice any difference with this official release because the ROM cookers have been using v2.03 for weeks!
9. Agenda from home screen works correct now. Choose the view u'd like to see, (day, week, month whatever) and it will open up correctly right now, when opening Agenda from home screen.
10. When u select agenda or calls on the home screen, it will be selected by green. When u finished looking agenda or calls, and return to the home screen, the green selected option is gone, a clear screen with no green. (before the thing was always green when u turned back, it frustrated me )
Just 2 things i recognized!
I saw it at Singapore web site http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=483&news_id=44

They do indeed, but thanks to Facebook I have pictures for all of my favorite friends...
I'll give a look to speed dial too
with this new rom, i have a problem:
when i receive a message and open it with tf3d i can't type prompt.
i have to move down the text to see the last message and then i have to put the cursor on the correct place.
Its a rom update but is it aswell a radio update?

Noobie question,
As The HTC website won't accept my Orange UK Diamond S/N, would it be okay to download from another source, or do I have to wait until Orange to approve the newer ROM, and publish on their website confused
many thanks

As far I now Orange use a own brand rom and when you start using a other rom you will lose your waranty, ofcoarse you can get a other rom just ask someone here to upload it, but you can use than aswell a coocked rom.

Yeah, correct. Orange will distribute their own ROM's.
11. AKU version has been updated to allow synchronisation to two PC's (fixing the Activesync error 0x86000107).
Hey
A little bug that I found last night - I installed nadavvi-nadavvi-call-history cab - which installs an extra call history tab to the touchflo menu
Afterwards everytime i tried to access sms through touchflo i kept getting unexpected errors in manila.exe.
As soon as i uninstalled the call history tab sms started working again. Shame as i had this installed with the older rom with no probs and it is quite handy.
I've decided to do the upgrade tonight but I have a question:
All my apps are installed in the 4GB Internal Storage (Not the phone memory). Will the Internal Storage be viped out aswell during the upgrade?
If not, I guess all apps will be useless anyway since the registry is viped. Do you recommend uninstalling all the apps before the rom upgrade???

Issues after upgrading to newer ROM from HTC.

Okay, So, from the other thread, I upgraded to the 2.00.XX rom as listed in my signature form the HTC website, as it was really really out of date. Since then, I am not having some issues with the text messaging, and they are odd.
I will receive a message, so, in the TF3D scree, it will say (1). I will go to it, there will be a message, and I will reply to it. Here is where the problem starts.
Upon opening up the threaded SMS message, the keyboard will appear, then it will disappear. I will have to click on the keyboard multiple times for it to stay. Once it says, I will begin to type, and the T9 will show the word, but the word will not appear in the window. Ever. Only when I tap the "space" bar will I begin to type out words and they will appear. It's very strange.
Also, once completed the SMS message and its sent, I will close the message, and close out of the Messaging program all together. Only to have the (1) appear again. I will go back into the message, and the new message...is mine. The one that I sent. I will have to go into the message, move the scroll wheel up and down to "clear" or "read" the message for the notification to go away.
So, I'm wondering if I should try some of the cooked ROM's, seeing as people are loving those up left and right, to see fi that clears a lot of the problems that I am having (and I'm assuming that the Sprint-packaging/cabs have a lot to do with the phone being slow, and locking up for about 5-10 seconds here and there.)
Any advice or a quick-start guide that someone can provide on how to get the HardSPL that is right for my phone? It's gotten to the point where I am not concerned about losing my data. I just want a phone that works flawlessly. Of course, still having the radio issues that were mentioned in the (somewhat dead) thread about upgrading the radio.
(and mods: if this thread doesn't belong here, it can be moved, I just figured this is a diamond CDMA, so it should go here?)
Thanks!
Try out groove rom, its a great 6.5 rom or hit up ppc geeks and find one you like
I've tried alot of different ROMs on my HTC Touch Diamond (CDMA) and so far my favorite is the newest EnergyROM is my favorite.

..and I'm interested in that one as well, but I can't get it to flash.
it stays at 0%, then coems back with a "communications error".
I've followed the instructions to a T in this thread:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35839
I don't think it has to do with windows mobile on the PC, because I can flash and re-flash the rom from HTC for this phone over and over again. I'm doing something wrong, and I don't know what.
Wait..found this:

took the words out of my mouth was going to post this link. lol.
Yep, took the grooveROM like a child to candy. Running that now. Just having the issues with Picture mail. Seems to hang when I launch it (or think I am launching it.)
Lets hope this thread is a lesson and a guideline to those running CDMA phones.

SMS - 2-5 seconds to load cursor, slow input from keyboard

Anyone have the problem where when you select a contact and then text it takes 2-5 seconds to load the screen with the cursor? And the cursor itself is pretty slow to get input from the keyboard.
I'm pretty sure my keyboard itself needs cleaning as I've seen in other threads. However in Win 6.1 and now 6.5 with autocomplete of sentences on or off I still see the huge delay before I can type. Something feels wrong about this, anyone else experience this and have any advice?
usually turning off any autocomplete or t9 should speed up typing delay
well - stuff like that happens in Windows Mobile
theres a registry cab file somewhere here that fixes this.. do a search
Hmm yeah I have text correction set to None so no prediction or sugesstion.
I'm running windows mobile 6.5 is there anywhere else I could go.
Just counted now and from the time the screen acknowledge my click on text to the white screen and cursor loading is 7 seconds. My god windows mobile grrrr!
Everything else on the phone is pretty fast but wow 7 seconds!
royalbloodvi - I replied this morning before seeing your reply.
I've looked for cabs, registry tweak etc searching here and on google and I haven't had any luck. I've tried w/o quotes stuff like "SMS slow registry tweak" "txt slow" etc etc but no luck any pointers?

LOL. You're a funny man... telling him to "do a search" after all those ****worthy threads You've started.
anyway...
I don't know if it's going to work for You mate, but worked like a charm on my tytn 2 back in the past.
Hey, not sure if you tried this, but there's also a cab, or registry hack which disables the text "counter" in sms which also decreases the delay.
Here's there XDA thread which links to the original posting at ppcgeeks:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=581901
I have it cooked into my rom and it does help. I don't even miss the counter cause everyone I know either has unlimited text, or doesn't text at all.
Also, whenever you want to send a text make sure your Xperia is in landscape before going into the sms program or hitting reply. It helps a bit there too.
hope all that helps.
peace

yea thats the one..
Thanks I ran the cab and followed the directions about thread_sms.htm
All I saw in thread_sms.htm was <Inbox:ComposeBodyCount> which I assume is not the count of characters and my unexperia rom already removed that.
Having it in landscape mode prior to clicking someone's name definitely helps although first time I do it there's still some 5 secs or so of delay. But if I go back to another contact there's none. I'll keep playing a bit but thanks much better.
Day by day I will actually make my phone usable!
Edit: Also it's great how original X1 users have to wait and use cooked roms to get features from X2 to actually make the X1 "ok"
