you might try that.

The other thing I've noticed is that even before slidesound, when I slid out the keyboard, it lagged just switching views. I vaguely recall seeing something about that, but don't care enough at this point to research it more as I figure some future kitchen will resolve it.

Other than that, no real problems Helmi's WM6.

I have tweaked the reg for BT volume and no SMS sent confirmation.

if you find someone else having the same issue and a res, I'd be interested.

One of the biggest things that causes this lag is the autocorrect/word suggestions. By default it is set to suggest words after one letter is typed, which means that after one letter it is trying to search the dictionary for all the words to suggest, which is ALOT of words. If you change this to 3 or more letters before the suggestion or just turn it off all together it should help out alot.
Slide sound would only affect the transition speed, not the post-transition typing.
Let me know if that helps!

Many thanks... that does seem to speed it up. Still a bit of a lag, but no where near as much.

Thanks again.

Where do I find this setting to change from 1 letter to 3 or more letters? Or turn it off completely?

EDIT: Never mind. Found it in Settings -> Input.

Hi All, I have upgraded to the WM6 ROM and when I run Internet Explorer, the Internet Explorer page loads and then closes so I can't view the Internet. Just wondering if anyone else is having the same issue and or how to possibly correct it. Thanks again Team, really appreciate your help!

I've just installed the wm6 build and have these issues (so far):

1) I have enabled a lock password. After a soft-reset it can take several minutes before I am allowed to enter the lock password even though the prompt is on the screen.

2) Occasionally (3 out of 5 times so far) when I put the device in the cradle activesync will not detect it.

I'm not sure if these are known issues but I don't recall seeing them when I browsed this forum.

TIA

1.) I've seen a lot of people with this one, I suggest not using a lock password.

2.) I've had this happen, when activesync says it can't detect the device and to click OK to troubleshoot, click OK and then click Start Scan, about 20 seconds into that scan it will pick it up, then you can close the troubleshooter.

good luck!!

I Was Accustomed To Pressing The red End Key To End A Call, But with the wm6 upgrade its not working , The Only Way To End A Call Is To Press The Software End Key In The Phone App.

Anyone Else Have This / Or An Idea. I Saw That Someone Said The End Key Was Disconnecting Their Data Connection But I Didnt Notice A Reply Or Solution To My Problem

Hmm.. I use the red end key all the time... First I've heard of this one...
