SIP Change Problem

[trehouse]

Anyone else having a problem when they want to change from one type of SIP to another and there's a long delay, like 10 seconds? I'm trying to switch between the TouchPal kb and Letter Recognizer.

Any solutions for this issue?

I read that it may be related to the MSVC installation but I don't want to dump that quite yet.

There is a setting within sipchange for how long the delay will be. It is set to 10 seconds on install. Check there. BOO

Boo, my problem is not at the startup, it's when I'm using any SIP and then touch the tiny white up arrow next to the SIP selection being used. This is where my delay is messing me up. I tried that timer there in SIPChange and it doesn't impact this delay.

Don't ask why, but it is related to MSVC..

For me, restoring a recent backup (which actually still includes msvc) fixed the problem..

If you have spb backup, try getting a backup, then immediately restoring it.

PROBLEM FIXED!

The following is found at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...ame=ProphetFAQ .

I did the copy method of CLSID to my storage card and then cc'd it back. Took all of 20 seconds.

For those not in the know, make sure you have a backup if you try this.

Soft Input Panel (SIP) Delay

Problem:

When changing input method, clicking the arrow takes many seconds. Usually, after installing Voice Command, the delay can be 10+ seconds
Solution:

re-write the CLSID key in the registry (I used Resco Registry Editor.)

1. Find HKey_Classes_Root/CLSID and Export the whole key
2. Save it as CLSID.reg in My Documents or Storage Card
3. Select CLSID, delete all.
4. Select Menu -> Import
5. Find the CLSID.reg file and -> Open
6. Close the Registry Editor, Done!
   • Variation: Rename the CLSID to CLSID2 and Import then delete CLSID2
7. Wait at least 10 secs, do a soft reset ( I think that is optional ).

4/Jan/2008: the above procedure works on HTC TyTN II (aka Kaiser) running WM6 Some findings:

1. there's no need to soft reset after the final step - the effect is immediate! I'm extremely grateful.
2. this procedure could be summarized as Rebuilding CLSID
3. the alternative approach of renaming CLSID to CLSID2 is highly inadvisable - it costed me a hard reset! Moreover, the "main" approach was far quicker
4. this procedure improves system speed in general, since CLSID is used by quite a few system functions, to give a conservative estimate
