Boost windows mobile performance up to 20%

hklm\system\storagemanager\fatfs
CacheSize = 4096
enablecache =1
hklm\system\storagemanager\filters\fsreplxfilt
ReplStoreCacheSize = 4096
***Soft reset for changes to take effect. Default values for all keys are 0 (zero)

Is there a registry tweak to improve the responsiveness of the OEM Touch Keyboard? It can't keep up with me and it becomes a nuisance quickly... I have spellchecker turned on but even with all predictive text options turned off, it still lags and cannot keep up with me, even with one handed use.

Anybody have a fix for this?

Does this really works ?

I hope so, been running this since my apache days....I've bumped up my fatfs\cachesize with the touch's increased memory. Here are my settings:

hklm\system\storagemanager\fatfs
CacheSize = 8192
enablecache =1
hklm\system\storagemanager\filters\fsreplxfilt
ReplStoreCacheSize = 4096

Gonna try your 8192 settings since we do have more Memory

i used to think/hope that it did, but im not really so sure anymore.

this reg trick has been posted 1000x but..i dont think it really does anything. for example: try running two vogue's with the exact same ROM, fresh from a hard reset.

install memmaid on both. soft reset both.
in memmaid do "optimize for extreme speed" on one, and "optimize for extreme memory" on the other. (this changes a few reg keys including those mentioned here).
shut down device. wait 15 seconds for reg entries to take effect. reboot.
try opening say the windows folder in file explorer, or an app, or whatever you want.

i did all this using my vogue and my dads vogue (same ROM date/version/build etc etc). there was no difference whatsoever in the performance . i also tried swapping which was "optimized" for which and there was still nothing.

i have been told that this does work on some devices however, but on the vogue i have never seen any effect. maybe someone could try some benchmarking?

phew that was a lot of word for a little info good luck.

Try this Benchmarking software. You'll see a difference when you do lots of stuff.

thanks, but now i dont care too much anymore. if someone else wants to try it and report back, great, but...if the difference isnt big enough to notice with two handhelds side by side then...its prob not worth much.

Don't use memmaid or sktools to optimize your device. Instead do it by hand. I agree with you, when I used sktools I NEVER noticed a difference. Now, after hard resetting my device and then reading this ENTIRE thread and entering any and all performance tweaks I could find I would say that my Touch is at least 20% faster than it was out of the box.

not to be offensive but...are you sure thats not just your optimism talking? care to run any benchmarks for us?
