SMS Lag Fix!

[shaggylive]

yea, I think posting that htm would be helpful. I stayed up wayy too long last night looking into this on msdn and didn't get around to trying. now I gotta work.

I've attached the htm file that I modified. Just replace the file in \windows\

Of course back it up first in case this is something that's carrier specific. (which I doubt but just in case.)

So far I like the fix, I do miss the character count but the lag drives me nuts!! I'm willing to sacrifice the count for the decreased lag. Good Find!!! I might look into trying to tweak it a lil where it keeps the count but only counts when you stop typing for say 2 seconds or so, then once you stop and it counts the characters used you won't have lag, and you will have a count, sounds genius!!!

would be awesome if it would re-count after you stop typing for 1-2 seconds, as previously mentioned. But still, great find!

Please do

Thanks for the fix!! I never cared about the character count whatsoever and this along with the SPJ cab completely removed lag from my texting!

what's SPJ cab?

[JimmiesBlazed]

thanks, this works.
I also use the SPJ cab, don't know if that added to this fix, but no more lag!

Here's a cab that does both files. it should be uninstallable as well

after using your cab.. threaded sms text in wm6.5 don't show up anymore..

Might have to change SMS back to threaded. Should be under system in settings. Not sure if all ROMs have it. Hopefully someone has more luck than me with tweaking count to only count after you stop typing.
