Also use a small ringer and store it in the main memory instead. That'll speed it up too.
I can confirm the SCI modification works well. I've seen these same slow ringer response threads consistently for Sprint HTC devices - 6700, 6800/Mogul, TP1, TP2. For anyone having trouble with their ringer response, just change the SCI setting to " 1"and your issue will be solved. I know, its hard to imagine why Sprint keeps setting it to "2" but its a known issue and easily solved by following the instructions below.

Here are the steps:
Call Sprint Tech Support and ask for your MSL code (I got mine with no problem, didn't even ask why I wanted it). Dial ##778# -> "edit" -> enter your MSL -> "view info" -> "modem settings" -> highlight "slot cycle index" -> "menu" -> "edit" -> select "1" -> "ok"
