Jerky home scrolling when loaded of tiles - HD7 General

So, can you guys reproduce this?
I've loaded my homescreen with people, meteo, my friends' tiles, photo, music, some bookmarks etc and the scrolling is not smooth anymore, you can clearly notice some stuttering...
also sometimes it looks like it hasn't loaded the livetiles images, so they're just green, then suddenly they get the correct picture on...
i can see this if i unlock then immediately scroll, or when i go back from an app and suddenly scroll...
another issue, if i longpress the music, photo, or htc live tiles (just an example, happens with every live tile...) they flash, the "basic" tile, the one coloured according to your theme, then suddenly go back to normal
...do you confirm this?

Anyone????

I am having the same problems.

Thanks for replying I'm trying to understand if every hd7 behaves like this, or we can consider them faulty devices

anyone else???

Not me. I've loaded up the home screen with about 30 tiles. I do not notice any lag. Flies from top to bottom no issues.

Yeah i notice this all the time. It's really annoying

After letting my device sit on the charger all night the device has some lag and jerky tiles, and I also experience jerkyness other times so its mostly normal.

I only ever notice it if the phone is syncing and some other stuff is going on at the same time too, like downloading email as well... but even then very rare that it happens and its only for a couple seconds.
Might be why you noticed it when plugged in though, wireless syncing could have been going on?
Infact, I havent noticed it since nodo

New 1.93 ROM disappointments

Hi all
I've succesfully updated to the new 1.93.XX ROM, I agree it's faster but I'm a little disappointed. The TouchFlo 3D menus transitions are not as cool anymore. For instance when you navigate through the menus with your finger acroos the screen (not using the slide menu in the bottom) the menu sections don't flow anymore, they just disappear and fade in instead.
Other than that I don't have much to complain about, but I just wanted to check if it's like this for you guys as well.
Has anybody else found any other disappointing "improvements"?
Cheers
as i have understood it, the transitions you mention was there to "hide" the lag in the previous ROM, and it's not needed in the new because of the speed increase.

Try using swots new ROM. It retains the animations yet apparently its much faster .
The Diamond is really disappointing me these days. I too am on the latest official (UK) ROM.
Some of my problems..
Battery Life - absolutely terrible if you use the phone for business means and push email. I dont leave BT or WIFI on and still the battery lasts no longer than around 12 hours
Alarm - the windows mobile alarm simply doesnt ring if you recieve an email or notification before the scheduled time. Its useless and has failed to wake me on a many a occasion
Reminders - for some reason dont pop up on the screen. You have to manually tell it to via sounds/notifications in settings, and even once you have done that, the Diamond some how reverts back to default settings automatically and the reminders fail to display again!
Answering calls - If your phone is docked in the official cradle and you tap the answer button when reciving a call before you take the phone off the cradle, it will reject the call regardless.
Opera - no flash and no way to click on a youtube clip and watch it. Why cant it operate like iphone and launch the you tube app when you click on a link to a clip on the webpage??!!
Activesync/Push/MS Exchange - loses sync sometimes and you have to softreset or manually launch activesync and hit the sync button... why??!
A2DP - doesnt work at all, it should be REMOVED as a listed feature. Im listening to music on a tube train via A2DP - I hit overground, I recieve a call, I answer via my headset. I end call, music continues playing THROUGH MY PHONE SPEAKER! Its embarassing and happens all the time. Useless. My old HTC Touch never acted that way.
Camera - Absolutely useless. We have a 3 Megapixel autofocus camera, yet the iphone still produces better quality images. Diamonds photos are fussy, soft and undefined - they lack sharpness and clarity. some say its because of the plastic lens cover, I see it as poor design.
GPS - works fine... apart from the LAG, which defeats the purpose of turn by turn navigation.
Its these annoying problems that are seriously pissing me off and will probably tempt me to the dark side come next generation of phone.
oh dear
I'm using Duttys latest rom..
I like the phone but I can give you my view on your points.
Battery life lasts me a day with pretty heavy use .. I expect to charge it and I'm not normally that far from a charger.. charges quickly
Ive never had a bad experience with the alarm. I will try and emulate what you said though.
reminders.. they sound and I can see them.. in fact it speaks them at the moment too
Answering calls. I don't use the dock but sometimes it does drop calls when i go to answer them ..
Opera No flash.. so whats new there then? You tube.. I like the you tube app.. but to be honest if i wanted something to watch you tube on id probably have gotten an Iphone
Active sync. I have never had a problem with active sync with any phone.. All my mail for my phone is collected/sent via orange so mail is no issue for me.. as for synching files.. no problems at all.
A2DP .. sorry but its not even an issue I don't listen to music through it. I do use bluetooth devices though and have no problems.
Camera.. Now I do use that and I like it. Its a good practical camera.. that takes adequate pictures.. except in poor light when its rubbish..
GPS.. mine doesn't lag and works much better than my old M700 and looks miles better
Dont get me wrong.. I dont live in Diamond Utopia .. but for what I need and use it for.. (on the move office related stuff, phone calls and sat nav) Its great.. it cost me nothing and it looks good too. I think its very good.
Now if i'd wanted a phone to play music through and watch videos on Id have probably gone to something else.
For what I need/want this phone hits the nail on the head.
Ive also grown to quite like the rom development side too.. !

Custom keyboard and simple profiles?

Ok, so far I've liked the diamond expect for some quirks here and there.
1) This is the biggest thing for me that I'm trying to figure out. On my Q9c I had the ability to define profiles for the sounds. Examples of my profiles are, audio for everything, audio for calls only - txt's and email, etc were all silent, everything vibrate, and everything silent with no vibration at all...
I cant for the life of me figure out how to make those multiple profiles on this phone. Is that something that just isnt in WM6.1 pro? I would really like my custom profiles. I've seen some of the other programs out there, but they do way too much, I just want to define that my phone will only ring for phone calls and be silent for texts and emails!
2) The keyboard layout on portrait mode isnt too bad, just too small for my super fat fingers, so I have gsen semi-working so I can text in landscape, but then it changes all the buttons around so that the period is in a different place, its a secondary button, its missing other symbols, etc. Is there any way to customize the button layout in landscape mode? If not, then landscape mode isnt quite as good as it's made out to be
3) I swear the biggest thing that drives me up the wall is the stupid predictive text in full qwerty. I have all the stuff turned off, but it still brings up the suggestion window, it just doesnt have suggestions in it anymore (that black box above the keyboard and typing area). Is there something I'm missing to turn that junk off so I can see more screen rather than seeing what I'm typing twice?
4) Battery life, well... Its a sprint phone and I've been following the battery life pretty carefully, and it simply just sucks. I've turned off TF3D and all sorts of things to try and get it running for a full day with normal usage (a couple of 5 min phone calls, bout 40 texts, and 2 email accounts that check every 30 min), but it wont do it. My Q9c had no problems doing this and more and still had at least 2 bars at the end of the day.
I've got the advanced config thing on there, the TF3D tweak, the PHMregedit and a few other little things and I'm just waiting for a new ROM to come out so I can start tweaking even further.
On the plus side, the browser is the best mobile one I've ever seen. People brag up the iPhone browser, but its definately got nothing on this one. Now, if only they would integrate flash so that it doesnt lock up... lol Thats probably on adobe's (flash's) side of the house though I would imagine.

[Q] Weird Issue with display

So I'm having some weird issue with my Sony Xperia Z, the screen works absolutely fine, but there's this mystical dissolve(my apologies, couldn't find the right word to describe this problem).
The phone have been dropped before, but nothing happend. It have always been protected by case and tempered glass. One day I noticed the text on menu starts to blur a bit. Then few days later the same started to happen with album. And the thing is I haven't dropped it in a long time. And I have never sat on it either, so that's not the cause.
And what's is most frustrating, that the pixels tend to dissolve only when picture is in background, if its pure black or any other color nothing dissolves. And screen works perfectly in games, but when I view pictures or i open even the menu it starts to act real weird.

PS - I already tried reboot in safe mode, complete factory reset through sony companion, opened it up and reconnected everything connected to lcd and digitizer.
PSS - Today I noticed that the picture blurs on colored image, while on black&white one it is perfect, any ideas?
I am facing the same problem. Havent got a solution yet.
Dont have a perfect solution but atleast i can help you with a trick of my own.
This is going to drain your battery quicker then normal
Go to google play and download screen filter and set it b/w 30 and 34 and adjust your phones brightness to half or even more than that
Im sure you wont be satisfied but atleast it wont give you tears while looking at the screen.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It worked, still got some blurred lines, but now it seems almost fine. Thanks a bunch, but I would still love to find out where's the problem, is it dieing GPU, screen or some cable?

Question Random lag after update on QHD 120Hz

Hello,
I've updated to coloros12 and i wasn't able to change the wallpaper of the phone, so, I decided to do a factory reset
After 2 factory resets, (one trought the recovery and other from the menu) I've found that phone have some lag during some animations, like swiping to show all apps, navigating trought apps, also on twitter when you scroll on the main feed, specially when i open twitter after many hours it lags as hell (like an old slow phone)
so, when i got the phone a month ago it was very fluid but now i don't know if something got broken or if it's a software issue
All this happens having QHD enabled and 120Hz
Does anyone have the same issue? is this a bug? is there a dffefrent way to do a new factory reset?
thanks for all your repplies
Not sure if my phone has the same issue or similar. After the update to android 12 when the phone is set to Dark Mode and going through the pictures in Gallery the screen lights up and it feels like is flickering, also feels a bit slower. When in light mode everything seems to be working fine. Is no difference in FHD+ or QHD and at 120Hz
I'll open another thread for this.
Edit: The problem seems to be isolated and is only happening when using the Gallery app at 120Hz, the screen flickering starts and the gallery is very slow. I've installed another gallery app and seems to be working fine.

Intermittent loss of touch response

Just retired my 2 XL and got a like-new 4 XL. Loving it so far, except one nagging issue.
Randomly the top 30-50% of the display stops registering taps (touch). It's easy to fix by turning the display off then back on, but I'm concerned it may be a hardware issue.
Interestingly, when this happens and something that is full screen and scrollable such as a contact list or app drawer is in the foreground, I can drag from below the "no touch area" to the top of the screen, but I can't start a drag at the top. So, it can sense touch in the troubled half, it just won't register taps.
I have done tons of searches. I see lots of people saying Android 12 had touch issues out of the gate, but was supposedly fixed. I disabled the block_untrusted_touches. I have checked any app that has draw over other apps permissions. I have tried with high touch sensitivity on and off. I have paid attention to running apps when it happens. I installed a LogCat reader looking for touch related issues when the problem occurs. I tried safe mode, but due to the intermittent nature of the problem, and the fact that safe mode disables most functionality, it really wasn't a good long term test.
I have yet to pinpoint this.
Sometimes it doesn't happen for a day, other times it's multiple times per day. So trial and error takes time because just when you think you licked the problem, it rears it's ugly head again.
I'm running LineageOS 19.1 at the moment (which I had also run on my 2XL with no issues). It is rooted. No apps force closing or crashing.
Has anyone else seen this on the 4XL?
Definitely interesting, never heard of that. I had some touch issues, specially if the display gets wet where it register touch, but poorly to the point I need to restart the device and dry out the screen. Though in my case the creen is completely cracked, so I suspect that's the cause as it didn't happened before.
Though I had a similar to yours but with the battery.
The problem was that the phone would randomly shut down, and that would happen more often when it was on my pocket.
This made the phone very un stable as sometimes I would have the phone completely off and didn't even know about it.
So I decided to open it and have a look at it. It turn out that the problem was the flex cable that connected the battery with the logic board, it was just slightly tore on one side, but just a tiny I couldn't nearly see it, I had to use another phone to zoom in.
As it was torn, depending on the way the phone was changed the force the gravity made over the cable, causing that sometimes it not enough energy got the phone, causing it to shut down.
Once I replaced it, it never happened again, not a single time.
Maybe you have a similar problem, though as you are rooted and using a custom ROM, that may be the reason, my case was extremely rare.
anyway, good luck
