I have TELUS HTC desire 2.1 no root or mods when I go to text everything i type is delayed and then will just pop up all at once and then when I go to actually send my text it takes up to two minutes sometimes to appear in the messages as being sent. Quite frequently it will also force close almost daily. Anyone else having a same issue?
I have this exact same problem. My Telus Desire seems to be so sluggish. Would installing a custom ROM fix these problems?
HTC desire is one of the snappiest devices I ve ever used. but I have unlocked phone so not sure If it is carrier specific . I would suggest getting a replacements or flashing. A cUstom Rom or factory reset
And TELUS promise 2.2 mid October and still nothin idk how to fix this phone its very sluggish I have unlocked the phone and using it with Rogers
Unlocking the phone will not make it faster, your carrier has filled it with bloatware or screwed the rom.
Install one of the many great roms from here and you will see the difference.
Can u please tell me how ? And do I have to be rooted ? Is there any one click rooting . Which Rom is good that must have app2sd . Sorry I came from xperia x10 , HTC desire is totally different
I have the same phone and is unlocked to Fido.
I don't have much delays anywhere yet.
I only gripe about the battery life !

Also haptic feedback causes the keyboard to be lagggy when using it. Try turning that off.

yes you have to be rooted, use the unrevoked 3 method for mine worked piece of cake follow the tutorial on here, then install a custom rom after you do a backup, you will definetly see the difference try cynogenmod, my desire is definetly the fastest ph ive ever had and have certainly not had the problems you guys are talking about! let me me know how u go
desire with 2.1 is sluggish, 2.2 is a massive speed boost and if you unroot it add ad2sd+ and some custom kernel with CFQ scheduler the speed will amaze you

im going to assume you know basic computing, like finding device manager etc?
after youve rooted the easiest way to install roms is to download rom manager from market. MAKE SURE YOU DO A BACKUP BEFORE INSTALLING A NEW ROM
then you can download a rom straight to your ph from this website in :desire android development forum and then install it via rom manager,
happy ROOTING!!!!!
Thank you soo much bro ill try that ASAP. Does the Rom u have does that have sense UI and app2sd ?

actually just tryin sense hd at moment. no camera yet but when someone cracks it, it will be the one a stick with i think, its very nice a bit unstable yet tho, im always changing my roms as get bored quickly, you'll find one that you like, and you probably get addicted to to changing all the time to once you start like i did, sort of like getting a new ph each time lol, the devs are awsome, wish i could get into that side but wouldnt know where to start!!
let me know how you go!!!

I think u should update your phone to android 2.2 froyo.
Super fast!
Not running Froyo yet, no root, stock ROM (waiting for Telus Froyo release).
Super fast, super smooth,
I find it slows down after about 2 weeks of always on, but a re-start fix's that.
I read 'droids have slow-down because of how the OS operates, so restart your device at least once a week.
I won't even bother to flash a ROM until there is a stable Gingerbread ROM available........maybe Root after 2.2 update.
Still very impressed with the device + GPS connects in 3 secs ( much to dismay of my samsung friends )
Hi guys,
My girlfriend just bought HTC Wildfire S. Unfortunately sometimes there is huge lag when unlocking the phone or answering a call. In other words the screen doesn't react to finger input for 2-3 seconds, then it unlocks/answers. It is very annoying. As I'm totally out of topic in development on Wildfire S, I am asking you to help me. Did someone had similar problem? I was thinking about changing a kernel or flashing a ROM to fix this issue, but I totally don't know what to choose in terms of stability and Sense interface.
Thanks in advance
It occurs due to the load our old processor take due to sense......... You can try a sense kernel or try an AOSP rom like CM7
Just what I thought. Any kernels worth trying?

If you are using a sense ROM I recommend Dust kernel or Cake kernel. People prefer cake one more because of stability.
And If you are thinking of going for CM7 speed mod kernel is good.

had the same problem after i updated from 2.3.3 to 2.3.5:crying:
if the phone is new i will suggest not to root it..(coz u need to use it for atleast a few months 2 make sure that the one u got is a stable and long lasting onejust 2 be sure)
there is a new ota update available now 4 wfs...try it out as it may sort out the problem..(i cannot as i am rooted & too lazy to unroot it again)
also u can try using 'advanced task killer/memory booster' or any other and customize it to kill running apps at a specific intervals to free up ram and speed up the system..(this may solve the problem in most cases)
also try not to fill up the internal memory:sillyyeah its too less)..and clean up the cache every now and then(easy cache cleaner etc)
these were the few simple,non-root and 'may solve ur problem' solutions..but if u want a 'definitely will solve ur problem' solution then root ur device and flash a kernel that supports overclocking:fingers-crossed:
Try to factory reset that solved my problem

If you're currently on a custom ROM, then you probably just need to tweak your CPU settings. I've given this advice to dozens of folks and they all said it worked for the symptoms you're describing.
If you're not a custom ROM, then you really should be.
Once you can tweak your CPU settings, set it to something like 600/768 (min/max) with the Smartassv2 governor and noop scheduler. I publicly guarantee you that your screen lag will go away (assuming you're not flooding your internal RAM by loading all kinds of useless **** into it )
Suerte,

Try another governor, try a perfamance governor first. Because when phone is in sleep mode for battery saving it slows down CPU and i think those 2-3 seconds is the time when cpu speed up till 600 MHz. On perfomance governor is always on max freq, but don't use it always because phone will use energy fast. If it helps that means this 2-3 sec lag you can solve with trying different governores. if helped press thanks and sorry for my bad english
hi all
I finally decided to give some new life to my HTC Desire, rooted it, S-OFFed it as well and after long search for most suitable ROM for me, flashed Cool Droid v3 Bravo on it.
ROM looks great and works fine, but it has only one big issue (so far) - I cannot turn on data roaming, it is turned off by default and tweaked to stay that way. As a noob, obviously I cannot post this question in specific thread about that ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1279016 so I have to ask here:
is there any fix for it, an advice or procedure how to change the script (I figured out that it's just a line in build.prop file but it doesn't allows me to change it). I'm not scared to tinker with it as long as it's not too complicated and makes sense.
I need it because I live in Europe, travel a lot and I use national roaming very often.
Please if anyone can help me, because this issue is a dealbreaker for me with this ROM and I'd hate that.
Thanks in advance
PS: the screenshot shows how the setting stays no matter what option I choose
Install a rom that hasnt got a lot of Verizon stuff in it.
I would, if I can find fast, stable and reliable ROM, based on GB and preferably with Sense on it.
I'm not into flashing new ROM every few days and trying out every custom ROM out there, I just need my phone to work well within its capabilities as I travel a lot and use it for work.
I guess that this data roaming issue shouldn't be too complicated to solve, it's a piece of cake for every developer...

well, I flashed this rom and been testing it last few days. It has pretty much all that I need but I find it quite heavy on my device. Too many times it slows down, lags and freezes, especially when running games and apps that need syncing. Also, quite a lot FCs. Battery drain is also significant.
I'm not sure where exactly the problem is, it just gets stuck with black screen and only notification bar is visible.
Any advice where to look at? Might it be kernel, radio or CPU issue?
thanks
A tip for ya when flashing that rom. When u first install it from recovery and reboot, when it boots past bootanimation and gets to the lockring.... Leave it settle for 15-20 mins, dont unlock. Then after 15-20 mins unlock then reboot. Then no force close, sounds mad but its true. U could try a different kernal, Droidzone has a few good 1s for sense 3.5 roms and also in settings/RCMix tweaks, u can fix permissions there, try that, it sometimes fixes force close. Im using Aurora v6 special edition, its android 2.3.5 and sense 3 and not 1 problem so far, great rom infact. Saying that, Runnymede aio s.e is my personal favourite sense 3.5 and never had any problems with it, but letting it settle for 15-20 mins is a must.
About the radio.... What do u have? Lastest is recommended.

I followed that flashing procedure pretty much, I was gentle and easy going right after flashing it, not rushing anything, left it to settle (maybe not 20 mins) and rebooted it again. Actually, FCs are not such a big issue like freezing. Usually 1fc comes on 5 freezes. My radio is 5.11.05.27, I haven't touched it since rooting the phone with Revolutionary. I kinda hesitate to flash it, I don't want to brick my device because I'm not sure about the right procedure.
As my name says, I'm just an ordinary noob, not too experienced with all this.
thanks
Did u do a full wipe before flashing.

I did a full wipe, formatting and partitioning SD card from the scratch (fat32 partition included), 4ext is 1GB... I did all following developer's recommended procedure step by step. SD card is brand new SanDisk 8 GB, class 6.
It works well after reboot, but after a while, as soon as several apps are opened, it lags and hangs heavily, making the phone unusable.
I'm not sure does it matter, but I moved all movable apps to "phone storage", except those that have widgets that I use. Yet, the phone still freezes even when using non-movable apps.
I'd flash it again right now but I get messed up contacts list every time because not all my contacts are on google and I have 1000+ in total, so after every restore I get many duplicates and triplicates, so I'd really like a solution that doesn't include another flashing.
Here is a better tip. Don't use sense 3+ if you want reliability. I recommend cool bravo s, but change the kernel.

So your telling me that you have no fcs, no lags, especially when receiving a call, no battery drains? Do you use your phone? I'm not trying to be rude or anything, I really want to know, because every sense 3+ rom I had wasn't 100%. Which rom are you using right now?

I'd like to stick with this rom.. I do have lags but not when receiving a call, that's why I suppose that I just have to do some detailed tweaking and that's where I need help as I'm not experienced with it. FCs are actually not so bad, pretty much the same as I had them on my stock froyo so I can live with that. Battery drain is there though, but I've been using the phone intensively since flashing RM AIO, trying to set it up.
Can maybe someone post here proper radio/kernel/CPU settings please?
My device is amoled version, with 5.11.05.27 radio and 2.6.35.10 [email protected] #11 kernel
CPU settings are untouched after flashing the rom, so they are "default".
thanks

If it's non tech user then I would suggest you take a look at Oxygen rom. Less menus to navigate, less mistakes. CM7 can get most non tech lost with all the options available. It can even be overwhelming for casual users in my opinion. :highfive:
I solved out of space issues by partitioning my SD card and installing S2e. On my old Desire running CM7 my free space went from 12Mb to 74Mb!
lol i got 1.1gb internal memory left :what:
fairly easy with cyanogenmod7 and has no effect on speed. from what iv noticed anyway. but like stankyou says cyanogenmod7 has a few settings in the cyanogenmod settings that if u didnt what they did, it could make it unstable, crash etc. like performance, CPU min - max etc

She would never mess with the settings, so I would just like to install the most stable ROM with memory issue sorted out. So, what to choose?
Oxygen with Oxygenr2 hboot
OR
An-droid with Oxygenr2 hboot if she prefers sense UI.
OR
Nikez JB p11 of course. It is going to be recommended anyway so I could be first too.

Hey Mates,
After rooting my phone and installing SetCPU to underclock it so as to save some battery time..I created Screen OFF profile and a Battery level profile..
It works fine for some time(like a few hrs) but after that my phone goes down...I cant even power on it by simply holding the power button!
It doesnt show up anything while I do that..
I have to hold the Power button for 10-15 seconds so it makes a hard power on by blinking the Capacitive buttons On and Off!!
SetCPU worked very fine on my HTC Wildfire S...but donno why is it troubling me in HOX!
Has anyone else faced this problem? or what do u think is the problem and what would be an ideal solution?
Help would be greatly appreciated!!
Dont face this with setcpu, and there is not much info about your phone rom. But pls try trickster or no-frill softs to see if problem's gone or not. Then, we'll have more info for solution.
In case of customs rom, go searching in the rom thread if any similar problem?
Alternatively, reflashing rom might clear the issue.

oops sorry about that!
Im using a Stock Rom JellyBean with recent Sense 5 update..
Yeah...as u suggested been using No Frills for the whole day..no sign of Shutdown of Restart so far...and its working fine..
So..I guess SetCpu is the culprit...but I really like the profile feature in it..I dont think even the latest version of No Frills has such..
Would you suggest any app with that feature?? Or a solution for SetCpu with my current provided information?
Help would be great

- No-frills cpu has no profile function, but i'd prefer the soft as it's very light (small size) and battery friendly (not running on background). I can simply open nofrill to change when needed. Also, profiles are not really in frequent usage (the stock rom can manage battery effectively enough, and profiles even consume battery during monitoring the "if" conditions to be matched for activation).
- If you like profiles, go with setcpu. Try to uninstall and reinstall to see if it works. If not, try previous setcpu versions. Worst case, try reflash stock rom if no luck. My phone is also on stock 4.2.2 and no problem with setcpu so far.
- Trickster is more powerful with lots of settings to play with, but requires you more knowlegde to make the best out of it.

And would changing kernel helps? If I should try whats a stable for HOX?

Flashing stock roms are similar to stock: download rom and flash with custom recovery. But flashing stock rom is just one of some other ways to return phone to stock (restore nandroid backup, running ruu, flashing ota update zip..)
You can find more details on Sticky post -general info of htc one x, including kernels and many interesting stuffs (mod, scripts...) if you want to go deeper.
