6.5/Juicy 7 - SLOW when Clicking on Links and Notifications

lvnadrm · #1 (**permalink**) 06-02-2009, 08:14 PM

I am a happy user of a HTC Touch Pro with Juicy 7 ROm. I am very pleased with the performance and battery life. I have been experienceing a few small issues under 6.5.

The main issue I am facing is that when reading an email in messaging, if there is a link to a phoen number or a link to an email or the link for the "sender", clicking on these the first time takes about 2 minutes before another menu pops up (send email, save contact). Most of the time tapping on the link does nothing at all.

Any links from the new style large Notifications in the Juicy 7 ROM seem to do the same thing (example, a phone number in a calendar notfication)

ANyone else experience this?

Thanks for any assistance!!

There is a new fade effect when opening new messages. ask in Juicy forum they may be able to help disable it

I experienced something similar but not the exact. I read somewhere that huge amounts of texts can cause problems. I have 2 threads with hundreds maybe thousands of messages. I deleted these 2 threads to clear it out, and it is much snappier. I use my-phone to restore after a flash and such fyi, but my 2 big threads are just unless chat so no prob to get rid of. If you have thousands of texts on your phone try deleting a good chunk of them.

Thanks for info.
Just for clarification, the slowness is not so much with viewing messages (opening, closing, scrolling) as much as when you click on a hyperlink (phone number, email, etc) or on the senders name (underline and linked). Most of the time nothing happens. Occaisionally I get the new popup menu that shows (save to contacts, send email by outlook).

Also, when I click on a phone number that is linked and get the new screen (verify that number is correct...) I can click on "Make Call" but it takes me to the dialer and then nothing happens.

thanks for any ideas....

UPDATE!!!

I have determined the cause of the issue. All of the links seem to work fine right wne phoen boots up. After SPB Mobile SHell 3.0 starts, the links do not work. If I exit SPB Shell they work as normal.

Did some research and seems to be someone having a similiar issue at:

Anyone else have this issue with 6.5 and SPB Mobile Shell?
