[Q] SMS typing lag since Lollipop Update - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ever since I updated my HTC One M7 to android 5.0.2, my text messaging function has been super slow especially when messages are coming in....there is a lag when I'm typing, like it freezes up and each letter I type takes a few seconds before they show up. Instead of being able to respond to a message in 3 seconds, it would take 30 seconds or even longer to be able to type my response and send it. I uninstalled Swiftkey and I am still experiencing the same problem. It only slows down when I'm exchanging messages with someone. But if no messages are coming in, it seems to work just fine. I looked everywhere and it seems like I am the only one having this problem.

[Q] Stock 2.3.3 issues [other than battery problems]

Note: I just blogged about it and planning on posting on few Googler's twitter to see if we can get some attention to fix these issues, if they already haven't started looking in to these! If you are interested, please visit "Is the latest Gingerbread (Android 2.3.3) OTA update for Nexus One buggy? "and share your experience with Android 2.3.3 on your NexusOne's the Android team can get a bigger picture of these issues! More the merrier!
By now, I have reset to factory default couple of times but still after about 50hrs of usage my Nexus One starts acting freaky! Performance slows down, launching apps gives me black screen, lock screen freezes until I receive a call and not answer it and finally forcing me to reboot the phone.
Is anyone else aware of these issues or experiencing these issues?
I've had a few, repeated issues since upgrading to Gingerbread:
The stock messaging application will sometimes crash after sending a text message. The message gets sent, but the program closes out and returns me to the home screen. When I try to get back into the app, it animates like it is opening, animates like its closing and then gives me an error message about it not responding. I have found the only way to get rid of this is to reboot the phone.
Occasionally, all of the items - icons, widgets, etc - will disappear from the home screen. All I can see is my background image (just a plain JPEG, nothing animated) and cant get anything else to happen. I've tried to give it a few minutes (coming from Windows Mobile, I've learned to be patient) but it never came back. As expected, only a full reboot of the phone fixed the problem.
I've been having strange WiFi and data connection problems. Sometimes when connecting to WiFi it takes several minutes to establish a working connection; however most times it is pretty instant. The data connection will sometimes completely drop out and not come back on its own - even in areas with known good signal (I'm on AT&T, insert jokes here). Again, the best solution I've found is a full reboot.
I have heard some reports from friends that they have experienced issues with Exchange support after the upgrade, but I haven't seen it personally. Other than those above issues (which are very annoying) Gingerbread is has been OK. As I like to tell everyone, I'm sure glad my phone makes a cool TV of animation but can't seem to want to send text messages... Thanks Google?

You are right, I've been having those home screen issues as well, though my wifi connectivity seems to be fine so far.

I can confirm Gingerbread on my N1 facing similar problem. Riddled with bugs such as battery drain, Wifi, Exchange Server, Date format on Notification Bar, Awake forever, just to name a few.
REverted back to 2.2.2 More stable amid less 'cheeky' in term of UI.
Also had force close issues with launcher and other programs getting a black screen after about 2 days without a reboot. Got tired of it and went back to Froyo
I've had trackball notification issues. First it stopped working entirely. After a restore it now only blinks notifications if the screen is off. Once the screen is turned on (even if the phone isn't unlocked) it stops. If the screen is on when the notification is recieved nothing happens.
I'm experiencing battery drain that i believe is associated with maps and location services (the alogcat shows it checking in all the time!).
I've had the launcher become unresponsive to touch. You can use the trackball to navigate, its slow, and once you're inside an app it works fine. Need to restart.
I've had the blank keyboard show up and need to restart.
I'm probably going to switch back to 2.2.2 tonight...
Wow! The issue seems to have touched a lot of NexusOne's. I just blogged about it and planning on posting on few Googler's twitter to see if we can get some attention to fix these issues, if they already haven't started looking in to these!

I have also been affected by the "black screen" problem after about 48 hours uptime. Returning to the home screen shows just the wallpaper and no icons. Pressing the "Home" button worked for a while to bring back the icons, but eventually most apps started showing some black screens and I had to reboot to fix the problem. I'm sticking with Gingerbread 2.3.3 for now, but it is disturbing after the multi-week uptimes I was getting under FroYo 2.2.2.

[Q] Not receiving text messages while playing

Sometimes while i'm playing games that require a bigger amount of memory i don't receive text messages at all or i receive them with a delay of 5-10 minutes, also when the phone is laggy i don't receive all of them. I think this problem is because of the message app (the stock one) is also laggy and can't receive the messages from the carrier. So, is there a fix for this or set a priority for the message app, if this is the cause?
and if you withdraw this app and leave the normal phone functions?
Well, if i don't play games or use many programs, the phone works pretty well and i receive all the messages, but after one or two days of use, even without playing, it gets laggy and will start to not receive some of text messages.
This happend to me to when playing heavy games. Did a test, while playing fifa12 i didn't receive a message and while playing world of goo everything is ok.
I have had the same problem on OneCosmic's Beta 2.
Playing Heavy Gunner and then people asked me why I haven't responded to some messages that I never got! Its quite a bad problem, hopeful it is a reported bug in the ICS development pages. I don't have enough posts yet, so someone else shall need to post it.... pretty pretty please.

Lollipop update has screwed my One M7!

Updated my HTC One M7 (UK on o2) to Lollipop yesterday (5.0.2)
Since then, it's been practically impossible to text my girlfriend. As soon as I open the thread for her the phone slows down to a snails pace, it's about 10 seconds before the texts actually show. Typing is practically impossible as the lag between key press and character appearing is 5+ seconds.
It seems it might be linked to the volume of messages in the thread, there are in the region of 7000. I know it's a lot and I could back them up or move them to the secure box, but I don't see why I should have to as the previous version of Android handled it fine...
Anyone know what I can do to sort this? I've done the usual cache wipe etc...

Its mostly likely due to the new updates. Messaging apps are not made to hold that many messages in a single thread. 7000 messages in a single thread is a bit of over kill for any messaging app. Heck even the default android messaging app has a setting to clear out messages after a set amount of like 500 total.
Best advice. Clean out your messages, no real need to keep that many.

Stock Messaging App - No sound while open

I have an XT1095 Rooted on stock 6.0 and the stock text messaging app has the annoying habit of not playing a notification sound, or vibrating, if the messaging app is open. This means that if I'm typing in landscape mode I have no idea if the person I'm sending a text to sends another message to me because I can't see or hear it. Their new message could possibly negate whatever it is that I'm typing so I waste time typing out a message that I end up erasing and starting over. This happens frequently. Even more annoying is when I finish sending a text message and set the phone down without locking it and without closing the text app. Since the back of the phone is curved it usually rocks to the side slightly as I set it down which puts it into landscape mode with the keyboard showing, totally covering the screen, and then I have no clue if/when I receive a new message during the time that the phone is waiting to timeout. I've waited an hour for a reply to a message that had already come during the 30 second timeout period and I had no clue it was there.
I've searched everywhere for how to turn on text notifications even when the app is open but I can't find anything. There's another thread on here where the person has a problem where they don't get text notifications when they're on a phone call. I have that same problem but it doesn't bother me that much. That's the closest thing I could find here. On some other site someone had the same problem with Lollipop on a Samsung, but the reply was that it was Samsung's tweak and there was nothing they could do about it. Am I also stuck with it since there don't seem to be any settings for it? Or am I having a moron moment?
