I've had the update installed a few weeks now and I'm finding there's a definate delay when trying to open a program or changing to another screen, sometimes I may have album open then i check the calendar, and then try to go back to the home page and it freezes for a few seconds while it waits to catch up. When I start a new sms there's a delay while it brings up a new black sms screen, then I start typing the recipient and again there's a lag while the letters catch up with my typing.
I've tried clearing all running apps but i still get the lag a lot of the time.
Does anyone else get this ??
I think the manila version is still 2.1 as I don't have the extra shortcut icons on the today screen above the slider.
A solution (other than flashing a cooked rom) would be appreciated.

Ok I finally decided yesterday to jump in the deep end and install WM6 on my JasJam... I ended up selecting Black Satin...
Now i have managed to get most things working but i still have a couple of bugs and annoyances that i'd like to get fixed if possible...
In the Messaging App, is it possible to change the default left soft button from delete to new message like it was in WM5? I fear i will accidentally delete messages the way it is atm, and i rarely delete messages too so i don't need it as a soft button... I have read a few people have just set a today screen soft button to new... but i don't want that... i want to change it back so i don't accidentally delete messages...
I have installed the Black Shadow Video Dialer, the hardware Video Call button doesn't work... the software shows the button in the phone program but the hardware button doesn't work? Also the Video Dialer software has made browsing the windows folder extremely slow... is there any alternative software?
Also is it possible to install the later version of the messaging app (included in Beta 2 of Black X) that splits the SMS and MMS back separate again?
the delete button is hardcoded into the new pocket outlook. however, the good news is that a confirmation dialog is displayed making it extremely dificult to accidently delete messages. I personally like this change.
re: the video call button, its rom dependant
because the default dialer skin in the black satin rom doesnt integrate video calling, the video call button doesnt work, regardless of having installed a new dialer skin which contains video call features; i use schap's, and the default dialer skin contains video calling so the button works, even now that i've installed a new dialer skin
I've searched, but couldn't find anything about this.
When I open the keyboard when replying to a text message sometimes the text reply box partially disappears off the bottom of the screen and you can only see the top line. Annoyingly it stays like this until I soft reset.
Does anyone have any solution for this?
I've had this same error since WM 5, through 6.1, and still on 6.5. I was very disappointing to see this bug was not fixed, its such a stupid problem.
It's not a fix but instead of soft reseting just push the keyboard icon on the screen to bring up the keyboard, then push it again and the size will adjust
I don't know if this is the same issue i get from time to time but what happens on mine is that i am able to see at lease part of the field when i input my text but when it goes past that one line it doesn't automatically scroll down so i don't know what i am typing anymore. what i do when that happens is that i go to my task manager and I stop the text messaging; when i bring it back up it is back to normal.
I get all kinds of weird things that happen in the landscape txt screen. YOur problems, and sometimes the right half of the screen will go spastic and show an inverted, backwards, distorted, partial view of the contact photo. Or the right half of the screen will look, well, scrambled, for lack of better description...
Sometimes just tapping in the entry box will fix it.
Other times I will switch to landscape, start to type on the HW keyboard only to find that it only registered the first few characters of what I wrote. I then have to tap the entry area before starting to type again

for the last problem about you having to tap int he entry area before you start typing you can try this fix. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=479717 i haven't installed the latest version but it work perfectly for me.

Is there a way to disable the on-screen keyboard from auto-opening?..Seems like that would resolve the issue.

I've had the exact same issue since getting my Tytn II when it very first came out, on the official software Orange and on my new TP2 with NRG's Photon Rom running 6.5. I can confirm that flicking the on screen keyboard on and then off rectifies the problem everytime. I don't know what causes the issue and it doesn't happen with every message a slight annoyance but opening and closing the on screen keyboard is better then soft resetting
Ok, I've had my TP2 for a couple of weeks now and I love it, but there are a few things I wanna get addressed and possibly fixed.
First things first, my phone was originally bought brand new from Verizon. It is now fully flashed to CricKet.
The first thing I wanna know is if there is a way to disable the built in HTC messaging interface. I'm fine with the older style of messaging (like that of the TouchPro 1). The HTC messaging seems slow and sluggish, and aside from accidentally clicking on the text message, I never use it. (Pics 1-4)
Secondly. After texting a message and pressing send, if I hit OK at the top right hand corner, it goes out and back to all my messages and usually hangs for about 40 seconds before I can do anything. Nothing will work. If I hit the end/home hard key, it will just beep, light up, but do nothing. I know when it hangs because it leaves a small part of the message at the top. (See top of pic 5)
Lastly. If I have my phone at the home screen and I get a text message my keyboard opens up on the home screen. Is there a fix or setting for this? Yes, I do have Swype (from the OmniaII), but this was a problem before swype, so I have eliminated Swype as a culprit. (See pic 6)
Oh and I'm running windows 6.5 professional
anyone? help?
This cab may disable the HTC SMS module for you...there's a couple of cabs that can do that (some work with some ROMs), this is the only one I happen to have handy. If it doesn't work for you, you can find others just by searching "disable HTC sms cab"
The attached worked for my keyboard, but mine was only appearing in txt messages, not on the home screen like yours.
I experience that same text at the top of the screen, but mine only lasts for seconds at most. I just reset my phone a couple days back so I only have a couple hundred messages, but even with a couple months worth I never had to wait that long. What are your running ram %s?
Whats the exact ROM you are using?
I have problem with my TP2. Any app that's fullscreen - be it opera mini/mobile, any game, navigation, etc., after few seconds of going fullscreen the top taskbar appears. Sometimes it's as long as minute, but the taskbar always appear, covering the top part of the screen. Apps don't seem aware of this fact, and they render as normal, thus hiding behind the dreaded rectangle, also they slow down noticeably, even going to full stop for few seconds. Opening start menu fixes the problem, but after few seconds, the taskbar is back again. I thought it may be connected with a clock and redrawing it when the minute changes, but disabling it didn't help. Please help me with this, as it renders otherwise great device nearly useless.

HTC-branded TP2, rom: latest official WM 6.5
Hi all,
I've a Samsung SGS and I got the offical 2.2 update then rooted with z4root and installed OCLF. What a difference, the phone absolutely flies along.
Since then I've replaced the stock dialer with "Dialer One" which works really well (I tried aTAKEphONE but didn't like it), installed the Whatsapp IM client as a lot of my contacts have BlackBerry's and Whatsapp is a cross platform IM client and also installed the PhoneUseage app to keep track of my VF plan and not allow them to screw me each month for out of plan useage.
I now have two problems which I feel are related to installation of the above apps but have no way of proving it.
1. From time to time when I hit the "Home" icon the phone returns to the home screen but only displays the bottom four apps and it takes up to 20 seconds to refresh the home screens (I have a total of 5 home screens) with the other icons and widgets. This is a serious Lag which seems to be preceeded very briefly by the aplication I am exiting blowing up in size by a huge magnitude i.e. if I am running the Internet app and I hit the home screen for an instant the internet page I was looking at appears to zoom in to the maximum amount (literally a split second) then it switches to the main home screen with just the four bottom apps and then up to 20 seconds later the rest of the homescreen icons and widgets appear. During the 20 seconds the phone seems 'hung' but afterwards it flies along again. This only happens intermittently and not on exiting any one particular application as far as I can tell. Thoughts anyone?
2. I am unable to remove the missed calls notification from either the drop down notification area (when I tap on the notification it doesn't bring me to the missed calls list on Dialer One) and the same applies to the orange jigsaw notification if the phone is locked i.e. if I unlock by moving the orange jigsaw piece with the number of missed calls on it to the appropriate spot when I lock the screen again and go to unlock it I am still presented with the missed calls jigsaw. I suspect this has something to do with the notification actions looking for the stock dialer app whereas I'm running Dialer One but I'd appreciate your thougths if you've had a similar issue and how you resolved it. The only way I'm able to remove the missed calls notifications is by doing a battery pull which is a royal pain in the ass.
Lastly, I'd appreciate it if someone can tell me why certain apps show up in the list of apps displayed by the Automatic Task Killer app and others don't? Dialer One being a good example. I've installed the app and it's now my default dialer but it doesn't show up in the Automatic Task Killer list of apps, same with the Whatsapp IM app.
I look forward to getting your thoughts.
Ben
try replacing oclf with z4mod...
Well you do use apps that's mess with you system.
You don't need an other task killer.
I don't think its Oclf fault.
But you can always try a custom kernel and a better lagfix.
