[Forum Suggestion] Search delay - About xda-developers.com

the delay of 30 seconds between searches is anoying. and causes alot of people to ask double questions. i even did it myself my first week here.
I searched something that came up 0 . and immediatly searched again and didnt notice that tiny inconspicuous line that says must wait 30 seconds.
I didnt notice for days.
i just use google now but for noobs that causes issues and causes them to ask questions they cant find info for.
if not change the delay, at least make the 30 second message bigger and more noticable.

Slow to ring ?

Hi all,
since I bought my trinity I have noticed something really weird and not too cool about this device :
It takes ages to actually start ringing or displaying the call when someone does, I mean, it takes 6 seconds to react which means 6 seconds less to get the phone before the caller gets on my answering machine. I find this totally shi*** plus, it has been doing the same on every ROM I've tried, do you guys experience the same thing or is it just my phone ?
Running latest faman release with latest radio
Thanks !
same here...try not loading it up with too many apps. That helps a bit

You are right, it is a bit slow to answer depending on its state. If the phone hasn't been used since a soft reset, that slows it down. If the phone is in standby, it is slower than if it is awake. I find that when my phone is in standby, it takes from 1 to 2 rings to start ringing on the phone, lag also depends on the provider.
One thing that you can do is to go into start/settings/phone/services/call forwarding, and change the time that the phone diverts to voicemail. Personally, I have mine set on 30 seconds, since it usually takes me ages to get to my phone when it's in my backpack.
you could also search the threads for the phoneboost cab by axel, dont install it as it is only for WM5 but, in the thread he explains how to shorten via registry hack the time the phone answers calls, it helped me with the same issue... tell me if you cant find it, i have it somewhere in another site too...
good luck
Nice thanks for the tip !!
Thats what i did and it works great :
Its a registry tweaks:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0
edit "Script" value to av0pr

Answering calls lag (so annoying!!)

Anyone having issues with the desire delay of about a second after you press the answer icon. I press it once, nothing happens, so I think I havent pressed it so I hit it again just as the button changes to "End call" cutting off the person calling you.
I`ve done it two days running now anyone else having this issue.
When I answer, I just pause before putting it to my ear.
There may be a small pause but I dont have any issues. Has this happened from day 1 or is it getting worse?
Maybe if its getting worse some apps are causing the Desire to lag, try turning the handset off and on, dont open any apps, wait 1 minute and get someone to call you to see if it makes a difference.
Happened since day one I think. have tried killing all non-critical apps and tried calling from my home phone and no difference , always some lag. But I also noticed its random. Tried about 10 times , sometimes its a 1 second delay, another was 2+secs.
Think this is why sometimes I`m pressing twice and cancelling the call.
happens to me also. had an interesting thing happening to me yesterday: after answering the call vibrate function still carried out through the call and it did not stop even after ending the call. i had to restart the device.

Those "storm surfers" vodafone ads are really annoying

Those "storm surfers" vodafone ads that have been showing in these forums for the past few days or more are seriously pissing me off. They "roll out" down over the top of the first post, or in forum view over the top of the first several topic rows, and there is no close button - no way to get rid of the ad except for waiting 5 or 10 seconds until it's loaded its little video and then it "rolls up" again.
See attached screenshot...
(if you can see a "close" button that I've missed please let me know!)
I have to agree , whilst I have no problem with advertising those ads are without doubt annoying and frustrating . Surely an alternative can be found .
I feel so sorry for the people on slow connections , i think designers have forgotten we are not all on broadband .
yeah they piss me off to no end, i just qait a few seconds then press one of the blue arrows until it goes away, usually about the time the vodaphone logo is there.
They should be ending in a couple of weeks.

[Q] Messaging crashes

Hey gents,
After some searching with no answers, I decided to ask the question myself. I apologize if this has been addressed before. I'm currently running a stock r800x with the 2.3.3 ota update. I've had the phone for about six months, but shortly after the update my leading had been acting up. It's almost impossible to send messages now. When the icon is tapped, the window opens but is completely empty for at least 40 seconds. when the keyboard is pressed, it takes another 30 seconds our so and words lag five seconds after key presses (swype and android keyboard). finally, after tapping enter, the message won't appear in the window for some time and I get the "force close or wait" option. After 2 or 3 times touching "wait" and a good 45 seconds to a minute each time, the message will send. I'm at a complete loss here, because I have plenty of space on both my phone and sd card. Does anyone know wtf is going on? Any help would be greatly appreciated and I thank you in advance.

Do you have a lot of messages in there? The next time you go in try deleting all threads, then make sure to set you limits to 50 messages per thread and 10 MMS per thread. If you have too many messages/threads it takes a long time of the phone to load them, and unfortunately unless you set those options properly the phone has no way to communicate this other than crashing.
My settings were all good, so I decided to bump it down 20 per conversation. It may have had something to do with 58 different threads open and almost 50 messages each :/ . Turns out you even androids need some good old fashioned house keeping. A quick wipe of all threads did the trick. Thanks for helping me out

[Q] Google Captcha

Guys I get these all the time, and it's really annoying. When I'm driving, I use google voice actions a ton. When it asks me to type in a captcha, I pretty much throw a nutty. I've searched up and down and found no way to stop these things from popping up. I'm not even sure why they do.
On top of that, they're so damn small and distorted I can barely read them. I end up doing 3 or 4 of them, and I don't even know if it's because I type it wrong or something else.
Is there a way to stop these things from appearing all the time, especially inopportune times?!
Halp Please!!!
