Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

looks like it to me dont have this issue just have the occasional SOD

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

i have the issue of after a soft reset, the first text will freeze on the message screen and not show new texts as the first one, they are listed as the second text. kind of frustrating, but hey, its an OEM so its not perfect

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I was having the same issue myself. Even after installing the GT2L clean up cab. It got worse when I ran a custom taskbar, dark ninja. I removed the taskbar and added TSOwens newest task bar and it seems okay now. Sometimes it gets slow, but it doesn't lock up like it first was. Nice to see someone local, I'm in Brentwood.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I wish it only happened after a soft reset or only after the first text but it happens all day everyday, I had this same issue with Mighty Rom and as well as NRGZ, no sooner do I close my txt screen my phone totaly locks up some timed up to 5 min, and it is only progressively getting worse, I have also done a hard reset to try to resolve the issue but it continues to come back, regardless if I put any mods on the phone or leave it stock, any other thoughts?

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

How many saved text messages on the phone? 6.5 does not seem to like a lot of texts. On 6.1 I had over 18,000 (I avg 3k/month and don't delete often out of laziness) with no issues. With 6.5 I find I normally have issues and have to delete them at least twice a month. The more I leave on there the worse it gets. I have never had to wait 5 minutes but certainly several minutes. Though I know there are also times where I just get aggravated and soft reset instead of waiting as well.

Have you had any texts fail to send? I hate a theory it's somehow related to when a text fails to send, and you get the red "click here to retry" link in the thread.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

im having the exact same issue. my phone seemed fine until i synced via microsoft myphone
21k messages

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

wow guys maybe you should delete some text messages

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I live in Brentwood myself, near the Oakley border. I, too, am having this issue. A few days ago, I made Task Manager an icon on my today screen and frequently end all running programs so that this does not happen.

Anyone else notice how Active Sync is running consistently in the background? I remember when my Mogul did this and when the software was updated to WinMo 6.1, Sprint eliminated it from start-up.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

LOL, WTF would anybody want to restore that many texts for???

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I have the same issue... I think it is because I have over 650 contacts. I spoke with someone that had over 2200 contacts and they have the same issue. After a hard reset, I tested this with no contacts and it works fine. I manually added about 20 contacts and no problem. I then sync'd with Exchange server and brought in all 650+ of my business contacts and the problem came back. Not sure if this is the only reason why, but I can tell you it is part of the problem with the ROM.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

WELL...thats a lot to swallow here but I dont have that many txt msg's I have a little over 1000 messages on my phone, I will try and archive them via "Microsoft My Phone" and see if that resolves the issue if it does that thats going to be CRAP because I NEVER had this issue in 6.1 and personally I dont want to revert back.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I have Archived all of my txt messages and seems to have resolved the issue, my SMS/MMS screen much more responsive no lag or delay and my device doesn't freeze or lock up...it seems kind of hoksey that 6.5 has an issue with a large number of txt msg's and 6.1 didn't/doesn't, its not that its the end of the world but givin this issue there's got to be a cheff that would like to take on this issue and write a fix for it as a REG Edit or patch...if I knew what I was foing i'd take it on because who wants to be limited by there txt msg's

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

Yeah I notice Active Sync running alot. I also was curious if txt message count had an impact. I have like 2,500 ish on my phone right now. I'll try deleting and seeing whats up.

On a side note any of you local guys know anyone wanting to buy a TP2? Got a spare I wanna get rid of and don't have 50 posts here yet. :(

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

Deleting txts and archiving old ones seems to be a workaround. Should be a non issue, but it is what it is. Im sure someone will cook up a fix eventually.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I had this same exact issue on 6.1. It's manila's messaging. It's loading all the 18K or 21K texts. When you sent/receive txts it will have to re-load the updated 18K-21K txts all over again.
What I do so that I have my txts available and searchable is that I use
Efficasoft Mobile Express to export the txt to a .txt file.
then I use a perl script I wrote to turn the .txt into a mbox format.
then I load it up into thunderbird portable.
then I copy them to a local imap server.
finally, I have gmail synch the files from my computer and tag them as SMS.
So I can search through them on-the-go.

after I do this, I can archive them in myPhone. One feature myphone needs is something like "archive all by last 5 txt from each conversation" that would rule.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

and it starts happening around 2.1K txts from what I've noticed.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

Just wanted to chime in and say that I keep my text message inbox lean to avoid slowdowns as well.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I haven't tried deleting texts in 6.5 yet but I tried in 6.1 and while I was able to delete my threaded conversations in the windows folder they stayed loaded in manila. How do you delete them from manila (other than deleting them one by one individually)?

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

There has to be some serious bug in the new ROM with the WM text program.... I have this problem as well, and finally deleted all of my texts to I could start from scratch, and it is still dog slow and locks up the phone and or makes it impossible to wake up... ](*,)

I am having to soft reset my phone multiple times per day now :protest:](*,)

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I am experiencing the same issues when I add a contact to the Manilla tab or add a program to quicklinks. The phone freezes and I cannot do anything.

The resets became so annoying that I swtiched to the Windows Default setting and have not had any locking issues. I would like to have the Sense UI interface back and functioning.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I deleted all texts and it's been smooth sailing. Although deleting them all caused a crash at one point and I had to pop the battery to reset. Once it reloaded I finished deleting. My issues didn't seem so bad as some other peoples though.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

Is it really necessary to have that many text's saved? I'm not understanding this.. I clean my phone out after each conversation.. There is no need to keep them on your phone.. especially anything over 1000? wtf.. The most my phone has seen is like 300 at one time.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I dunno man, I think many people just forget or don't bother to mess with them. Lots of people came from phones that only held "x" amount of texts and bumped the oldest out. So they likely never bothered checking, WinMo can be a whole new world to many. I've only been dabbling with ti a year and still a total noob.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I experience this too but I don't restore text messages.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

Like I mentioned earlier, I have 650+ contacts and I have virtually no text messages, and this is still happening to me. I'm wondering for those not having this problem after deleting text messages, how many contacts to you have? Thanks.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I have around 100 contacts and less than 200 txts. I am having this problem to the point it is unusable. I've installed the goodthings2life cab. Its unreal how problematic it is. It takes like 20 seconds to switch from landscape to portrait. It crashes when closing sometimes 1-2 minutes. I know this is a 6.5 issue as im not a 2k txt msger, didnt have this issue with 6.1, yet im still having this issue.

(Sigh) I'm really frustrated b.c. im txting a new girl and this sms f-up is messing with the game...

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

why are you backing up that many texts? plus myphone can only do 10k...ive gotten the warning several times.

do a hard reset or a clear storage. lots of people arent doing this after flashing to the new rom

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I've done that many times.

When I use winmo SMS (HTC's is an absolute joke) and press ok (Top right corner) after I text someone. It freezes for 20 seconds on the next screen where it shows all txts from all people. Nothing happens. Then sometimes manilla just crashes, other times, it goes back into that persons txts. But it craps out somewhere in between.

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

have you reflashed? it sounds like you might have had a bad flash. or there is something hogging all your memory. what programs do you have running? have you tried a custom rom, just to see if its that actual rom

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

try removing the goodthings2life cab and see if that solves your issue. could be something in there is messing stuff up

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

It's interesting you say that.
I've only flashed once.
I dont do custom roms b/c its a business phone during the day; cant risk it - Would love to though.
When I soft reset its at like 49% (after gt2l cab). Then it averages out (after sms usage) to around 83%. Randomly it will restart (3x since the oem rom was released).

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

Wouldnt everyone thats running gt2l have the same issue then. I game for trying though...

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

there is something going on with your sms, it shouldnt increase to 83% with just that. uninstall the cab, (soft reset) and see what you get. you might have to do a flash again, but idk..somethings up. if your still having issues id call sprint

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

I'm thinking about re-flashing the 6.5 again,
any pitfalls?

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

Just did a clear storage, will run with no cabs, and see how it works....

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

it's a build issue, i have found a work around but no fix that really works , in the Htc messaging after you hit send hit the back button ( bottom softkey) you should go back to manila and get a pop up saying message sent and no lock up .

Re: Sprint TP2 6.5 OEM Freezes when Exiting SMS/MMS
 

if you reloaded 21k messages to your phone, no wonder you are having freeze ups.
sense (manila or tf3d) or whatever they are calling it these days doesn't seem to like a lot of text messages.
