[Common Problem] Slow performance when using stylus or touch screen

I noticed that whenever you touch the screen, the device slows down BIG TIME. I mean if you try to use a CPU utilization app, it will show you that whenver you touch the screen, CPU utilization immediately jumps to 41-45%! And if you try, there is no way that you can actually play touchscreen games like Skyforce or KRally because of this problem.
I just want to know, is this problem ROM specific? for WM6? WM5? or is it really just a flaw in the device? I searched and found out here that the Trinity also suffers from this. I used to have a Himalaya and a Universal, and this was never a problem.
Is there a known solution for this?

I hope nobody will mention overclocking as a solution. Cause even overclocked, it is still slow.

HTC Advantage X7500 with 624Mhz CPU is suffering same problem.

Looks like it's an HTC problem, and don't hesitate to write to HTC support for complaining
cheers

I guess nobody really cares about this issue and nobody tried to fix it. Not even HTC.. oh well.. I guess Hermes devices are just not bound for stylus intensive type games.

same thing..

parehas nga sir..never had this thing with all the other brands/ppc i have use before..htc lang ata..malas lang 838 pro pa..
anong rom gamit mo sir??

Dude, avoid speaking in tagalog.
I'm using WM6 TNT 2.0 Pro.. I also tried Schaps' ROMs, but it's a little slow for my taste. But regardless of the ROM, it still suffers from this issue. Also tried the ATI fix, no effect. It's either a bad hardware or driver design/fault.. and sadly, nobody could fix it.

I think Ill bring this topic back to life...anyone found a solution?

I've noticed this a lot in games like skyforce. Makes the game a lot easier though Hope someone comes up with a fix.

want just to bring this back to life again
as I know this haven't been fixed yet
Would be really cool if somebody has a solution
Other phones have this problem got fixed so why not ours too?

Yeah! really appreciate if someone already figured out the reason behind this..
I can't even play skyforce on my Hermes which I enjoy playing on my O2 XDA II mini.

I have the same problem, i try to remove "HTC Home", from Today Menu.
Now its work fine.
I hope that is the solution
I have TyTn II with WM 6.1

well you must know that We have a strong arm processor... samsung... very powerfull at 400mhz nice but the god dam ati accelerator makes the issue!
even tho in newer builds in 6.5.1... we are experiencing new issue touch response at repeatedly tapping...
So i think is a mix betwen Processor acelerator and the OS... If you are in winmo6.5.1 and you dislike that delay at tapping this key allows you to tap more fast not so fast as first 6.5 but good enogh to continue with the sip typing... the games are... games... Skyforce in a Universal with almost 600mhz has the same delay... in 6.1 and 6.5 so... in games the procesor is important but the stability and the PAGEPOOL is the meaning of our troubles. i have cook with 4 PP and the new IE cant works fine but skyfire works good... MSFT develops his PP at 15mb!!!!! to test the speed on IE... just to reinforce my point of view...
the reg to fix the delay at touch response ( alil fix )...
[HKLM\System\GWE\Touch\Filter]
"MinimumTapTime" Dword=5 in hexadecimal!!!!

Well, with a raw CPU power test (using 7zip's built-in test) it comes as good as XScale at the same clock frequency so it seems it's really powerful.

Thank's for the response.
I try to find your key, but there isn't. I use PHM Registry Editor, i use also "Find", but nothing.
Thank you
(excuse me for the english.... i'am italian)

My stupid minutes yesterday... i tho we have Intel StrongARM Xscale....
Yeah here the principal word that you may read... are, newer versions of wm6.5.1

Chess Request

Anyone know of a good freeware chess game that works well on the HD?
Cheers.

A freeware I don´t know. Sorry
But I tried ChessGenius and this work fine on the HD. Rampart Chess work also wiht the HD but the german translation was horribly

I'm also using chessgenius. It works well enough but it's really not optimised for a wvga screen. That doesn't change the fact that I can't beat it at anything but the easier levels.

here this is the best i found - simple

Thanks guys

Azgrad Defence in WVGA

Hey guys.
I just bought Azgard Defence which is an awesome Tower Defense game but unfortunately it's not supporting WVGA resolution. Part of the screen just stays black. Is there a way to solve this issue? It would be really nice, if the whole screen was used.
Thanks,
zenabi

Nothing at all that I can do about this? Doesn't this bother anyone else using this game?
greetz
zenabi

if there isn't a WVGA version of the game, then not much you can do. At best, you can dig into the settings files and see if you can locate the resolution parameters and change them to 480x800 though that will only stretch the screen.

Okay, I thought someone maybe had a fix for that. I think just stretching the screen wouldn't make the game look any better Thanks anyways.

You could try WVGAfix3. Not sure whether it works on WM6.5, it did on WM6.1.
I've found another thread with a direct link to the file for download.

Let me know if it works. Azguard defence is way too cool on PC, would be great if it works on ppc too.

wvgafix (i believe the new version now supports wm6.5) wouldnt solve the OPs problem as he/she wants to get rid of the black portion.

[REQEST] Samsung Smart Converter for Touch HD

It is very handy application. I have it on MY Omnia, and I use it quite often.
More and more now I use my Blackstone and I have one very big problem ... for Toych HD there is no programs like Smart Converter for Samsung ..... Not even close ..
I already have tried some 9 of like likes , but they all ... I will be honest suck.
SO ... Maybe someone would be interested porting this app for HTC devices. I wuld be more than happy if anybody would do that. And I believe, that I am not the only one who would like to have this app on his HTC device.

Duke Nukem 3D Config

Hi,
I love the old games from the past. Unfortunately, I get Duke Nukem 3D to run properly. Can someone upload his working duke3d.cfg?
Many thanks
Dicker182

IS this for the touch pro 2 ?????

This is my working .cfg. It's far from perfect, but it will at least get you started.
Also, you have to make an registery edit in order to make the keyboard work correctly. Can't remember what it was but i'm still searching. It had something to do with disabeling t9 in the registery. Atleast that's what I think. But the game will boot with this .cfg.

Very nice, thank you.

Well It did go SLIIIIIGHTLY further on my HTC HD2, but not much use... Any Ideas. I Can only touch the screen to shoot. NOTHING more. Plus this doesn't fill the screen, I don't know why...

I realize...
This isn't gonna work well for no hardware button devices like the HD2. That's sad... Ah well. Android games are great too...

P.S
Does anyone know if the HD2 can run Doom?
