Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

Has anyone else noticed that when you get a text message thread really long that the keyboard really starts to lag? Then when you click send it can take a couple of second before the message pops up in the conversation?

I tested it in other conversations (with much less texts) and it was immediate.

Also, I noticed every once and a while in internet explorer I'll start typing something in a text box and it will just stop inputing my letters and then catch up a couple of seconds later.

Anyone else experience this? I have an HTC Trophy.

no problem posting here but trophy does have its own forum or are you looking for arrive ect owners thoughts also cause i sure eric has a thought? lol

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

lol, Yeah, I'm looking for everyone's thoughts on this. I was wondering if someone else across the board may have had the same issue.

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

gotcha...i just wanted to be sure.

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

just some minor lag but not anything serious like in WM6.5, I usually see it after a few days of uptime, doesn't do it all the time just every now and then.

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

I counted today and after I hit send it took 11 seconds for the message to appear in the conversation. I'm wondering if it's also like 6.5 where if the conversation gets too long you need to delete it. I heard you didn't have to with 7, but it sure seems like I might have to.

are u on NoDo or the mango beta?

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

NODO, I'm too much of a chicken to try mango. Lol

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

yea I didn't experience anything like that.

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

I haven't experienced this either, but then I keep things tidy too. Here's something nobody else has asked... exactly how many messages are we talking about?

For what it's worth, I've yet to work with a device that doesn't lag when you surpass a large number of messages in a single conversation.

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

@GoodThings2Life the TP2 had a very serious lag when it comes to SMS messaging in the stock 6.5 rom and it was there whether running sense or not. custom roms only had a moderate lag.

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

Well, as I'm not 100% sure how many messages I have, it hasn't been deleted since May 27th when I got the phone. The conversation is with my wife, so there are quite a few. We send pictures back and forth quite a bit too. No other conversations are slow, however, they are much shorter with a lot less pictures.

I also noticed my camera start to slow down recently too. I'll take a picture and it can take 5 or more second to go from the black screen (like it's processing the recent photo taken) to what you can see through the lense again.

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

That's a good clarification... it could be that there is some kind of lag occurring as it processes the Pictures content. I don't keep pictures on my phone very long. I sync them up with my Facebook account and computer and then remove them from the phone.

I guess the point is, I'd say wait for the Mango update to see if that resolves it, otherwise plan on cleaning house a bit more often.

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

I'm going to test a few things before Mango because they're going to get deleted off the phone when I go to Mango anyway. I tried deleting all pictures out of my thread to my wife. It was so long that it took me about 30 minutes to scroll through it. I'm sure that's why it's slow. After deleting the pictures, it didn't seem to make any difference. I was hoping I wouldn't have to delete, but I don't think I have a choice. Is there any way to back up the texts? I'd like to save the conversations.

I'm going to be deleting the pics off my phone to test the camera speed tonight also.

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

@WMFan85 hope u didn't do anything yet. upgrading to mango does not delete anything from ur phone at all.

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

It doesn't?? That's awesome!! How in the world does that work? Isn't it like putting a new rom on the phone?

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

its kinda like a cross between installing a new rom and a service pack, the update downloads then it installs and overwrites the existing OS version.

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

Watch that !!!! if he downloads one of the Leaked HTC roms, it will nuke your phone BUT !!! It is the true final for the Trophy with the correct drivers, noted better performance and battery life (also Hidden wi-fi, DLNA support etc). It's still in question what the carriers will do when released (Verizon) if it will be a nuke or upgrade.

If you just upgrade to the RTM (not the leaked rom) where is it updated through Zune, you will be fine.

Noting on this, 11 seconds for the keyboard to pop up ? Never on my Trophy but, I really dont type texts much any more.

Mango has voice controled Texting and I use it 90% of the time, it's about 95% accurate if your in a pretty quiet room. If your phone is locked and a text comes in, you can fully read and reply to a text with out even looking at the phone. Yes, I can text and drive with out taking my eyes off the road... I have shown a few people that and it's blown them away (Iphone users too).

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

Agreed, hands down my favorite feature in Mango. Rarely use the phone, mostly text. So far mines been 99.5% accurate. Not only is it safer on the road, but makes one lazier on the couch lol. Really like it at work so I can stay hands free and keep on the task at hand. Same here, everyone that sees it in action wants it.

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

I could't take it anymore, I had to delete all the texts. It was just too painfully slow. I've had slow text with 6.5 before, but this was worse. After I deleted all the texts, all was good. It handled just like the day I bought it. The camera is still slow, but I haven't deleted the pictures out yet.

I can't wait for that part of Mango. I don't plan on putting Mango on until it is officially released for the phone. (Like through Verizon or Zune).

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

that's weird, I don't think I've ever experienced this mango or NoDo.

Re: Slow Keyboard/Message Pop up in Texting
 

That's so odd. I was looking on the net and I couldn't find anyone else having problems either. It's not like I text like a 12 year old little girl or something. I should have taken a quick video of it. I will if it does it again before Mango. And I only have about 200mb of pics on the phone.
