Official Keyboard Lag Thread

[Mattheyu]

I attempted to do an edit, but for some reason it kept stalling, even when I waited for 5+ minutes.

What I wanted to add was this:

I ran this ROM for the better part of the day on my Sprint Touch Pro and loved it. I had to flash back to stock for some repairs. The only issue I had was the old "text messages not being flagged as read" bug. Which wouldn't surprise me if someone has a cab somewhere to fix that, but I didn't bother to do research.

I will second the fact that the DCD rom has all but solved my SMS keyboard lag!

This also brings back the good old word suggestion from windows instead of that annoying black bar. Enjoy!

THIS WORKED FOR ME! Thanks Ruskiyab!

This cab (posted on page 2 of this thread) that disables xT9 worked on my Touch Pro running Merdin's 5.1 ROM. Thanks so much! VERY minimal lag now. In fact I wouldn't even catagorize it as lag because in no way at all does it affect my typing. My typing used to outpace my phone's ability to display the letters and I'd have to stop for 5-10 seconds to let it catch up with me and thats gone now. Hooray! I think this did it!

I also ran a cab a while back simliar to the one posted here on page 3 (I think thats where it is) of this thread that adjusts the initial delay and repeat rate settings but I never noticed any difference with that cab.
