[Q] 3rd Party SMS Slow at Times - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Hey folks,
Anyone have slowness within apps like handscent or chompsms? I thought it was a problem with handscent and switched to chomp but still have the same problem. When I go to open up a thread it stays on a blank transitions screen for a good 5 seconds at times and bouncing between conversations it loads them so slow. I have a stock untouched phone and just wondering if it is just me or what. I have rebooted and it does not seem to help. I guess I should use the stock app and see how it goes huh....
--Steve

What helped for me on my OG evo 4g is that I disabled defaults for stock messaging app. Try that and tell me if it helps.

That is the first thing I do....it is also slow in ChompSMS. The default messaging app works fine. It definitely has something to do with 3rd party apps like Handscent and ChompSMS.....oh well.

I've been having this problem too. I am running Mean ROM 5.9. I was using Handcent. Since the problem starting happening, I believe in the last month or so, I've been switching between that and the stock messenger to see which works better. I just uninstalled Handcent in case that was a problem. It doesn't seem to be helping so far though. Maybe I'll try a restart.

I'm running the Viper 4G ROM and I started having this problem like a month ago using Handcent. It sometimes takes almost a full minute when I first try to open the app.

I think this could be an issue with the Facebook contact syncing. See here.

Launcher Pro - No call history

I installed Launcher Pro Plus on Das BAMF 1.3.2 and whenever i open up the phone/dialer the call history that normally displays behind the keypad is blank. If i select call history from the bottom, then switch back to the dialpad, the history will be displayed. Its a pain to have to switch back and forth every time i bring up the phone. This doesn't happen when using Sense as the default launcher. Anybody have any idea what causes this or how to fix it? Thanks for any help/ideas!
I am having this problem too, really irritating.
dbu over in the development forum posted this:
Note: there seems to be a little bug with all 3rd party launchers where if you you hit the phone button and the dialer pops up, the contact list is blank and the smart dial does not work. To remedy this long press phone, select a new application and restart Launcher Pro then add the phone back, you may also have to open up the dialer and try to dial a few numbers and delete them and the contacts should appear. Not really sure why this happens.
Going to give it a try and see how it goes.

I did it yesterday and it fixed it. Just change the icon back to what you want after and you should be all set. I haven't had an issue since I did this.
How's LP running for you? I was using LP paid, but after the last update, it runs like complete crap for me. (I'm on the BAMF ROM too).
Sense runs perfectly, but LP is laggy and FCs a lot. Makes my TBolt feel like my old G1, ugh.
I have been experiencing the same problem with Launcher Pro. Even stock my phone still did that. Like it was said above, type a number in and delete it and your recent calls will come up. I haven't installed a custom rom yet, I'm just running the stock root rom with the 1.4ghz kernal. It doesn't force close or run slow for me. I prefer it to sense.

Mine is a bit slow when I get texts and Handcent pops up. The screen unlocks, the window pops up, and it takes a while until the sms sound plays. I have been able to reply to the text and send it with time to spare before the sound plays. That's the only lag I've had really. I may try using the stock app and see if that clears it up.

Use the fix I posted earlier.

It worked for me.
The fix worked! LP has been running great (im using tesla coil 1.1 with drod's latest kernel).

I finally had to give up on LPP for now. Sucks too because I had my phone set up very nicely. I ended up with more issues using Handcent and LPP(with Das BAMF rom) and I tried GoSMS(hated it) and the stock app(also hated it).
I'll keep it loaded on my phone for now and see when it updates if anything changes.
I'm not using LP but handcent works fine for me.

I looked through the comments on the market for Handcent. Apparently there are a number of people experiencing the same issue I am regarding the lag. Maybe I'll uninstall it and reinstall it. If it's anything like a computer, it will work flawlessly after that.

Phone apk force closing after almost every call?

Running th3ory 1.6.5, phone apk fc almost every time I use it after call, sometimes the radio shuts down showing no signal? Any ideas?

Do a full wipe. Data, cache, and dalvic. Check the md5 on the rom. Reflash. It's easier then trying to track down the bug.
I am having the same problem, and its driving me crazy. On BAMF 2.0.5 or 2.1, no problems, anything else and phone force closes on every call. Ive changed radios, stopped syncs, removed programs. Would really like some help to figure out what it is...
Have you tried aligning applications and fixing permissions. I was having similar problems and after doing those two things I realized my problems had disappeared. I'm thinking there's other issues there, but might as well take a shot at it.
I have tried, but i think i just figured it out. I removed twitter but didnt unsync the htc sense twitter. The force closing (now that I think about it) doesnt happen all the time, it just seems like it because its only when my wife calls me.
I unlinked her twitter account, and now seems to be working fine?
im having same problems. the radio does die out right when its crashing. could this have anything to do with this phones ability to do simultaneous data and phone? I will try to remove and unlink the twitter but I believe it was crashing with only my google account linked,
it appears to be sense 3.0 which is the problem for me. I wiped and flashed a senseless version and a sense 2.0 version and neither has the problem. On any rom with sense 3 or hybrid my phone dialer crashes upon calling?

Thunderbolt keyboard problems

My keyboard randomly stops working it let's me press buttons but nothing shows up I have to press the power button a few times till it works please help

I've had similar issues, but seemed to only occur when using a new input method or on reboot. I use swype and once I switched to the Evo swype apk, the problem stopped. Probably doesn't help your case, but I know you're not alone.
I know this may not really fix your problem but really just provide an alternative solution, you could use Swype. Swype is much faster (in my opinion), and you still have the option to type normally with it. You would have to download the beta from Swype's Website, it doesn't take too long to register for the beta.
I have had this problem too in the past. I'm just curious, do you use handcent? The only time I've really seen this happen for me is in handcent's popup windows, but I have no idea why it happens, and honestly, it doesn't happen often enough for me to want to try to figure it out. But I feel your pain, when it does happen, it's quite annoying :/
Happens to me all the time... I use Smart Keyboard Pro.
See my thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1132927
Wish I could figure this out. I type super fast and it's starting to get veryyy annoying.
Wow so does mine LOL I thought. I was crazy.

Ya i had major problems with this on the stock keyboard. I also had just general problems with lag sometimes in the stock messenger app, as well as receiving duplicates of text messages. I formatted the cache partition in cwr and used the gingerbread keyboard in the market and have since have had zero problems (so far lol).
Same Here!
I'm having similar issues. When I "wake" my TB up and try to go in to type a text message, email or any other thing that uses the keyboard, the keyboard shows up and allows me to type, but nothing shows up on the screen.
I've tried using the GB keyboard from the Market (which I REALLY like), but no matter what I try, I seem to have a problem. I thought it might be WidgetLocker interacting badly, but uninstalling that doesn't work. I thought it might be because I was using Go SMS Pro, but uninstalling that didn't work either. I went back to using the stock keyboard (which I really DON'T like), but to no avail. The only thing that DOES seem to work is to reboot the phone.
This is getting a little ridiculous! I don't want to have to reboot this phone every time the keyboard decides it doesn't want to work! Anyone have any advice?
Just FYI, I'm not rooted. I haven't gotten that far yet. The only thing I've done that isn't stock is to run Go Launcher as opposed to Sense. And this issue was happening when I was running Sense as well.

[Q] Animation lag when sending sms (samsung messaging app)

This doesn't happen all the time but when I send an sms to a friend who I have sent plenty of messages to (more than usual friends) there is a lag in the animation when I send it. I have tried limiting the number of messages per thread and that did not help. It also doesn't seem to matter if there are a lot of apps open. It is very annoying and hopefully can be fixed. I am on the stock 2.3.5 firmware (KI3) but this has been happening since I got the phone. Any suggestions?
No one else has this problem?
I did when I first bought the phone, however after updating to 2.3.5 it dissapeared. I stopped usng it anyways, prefer handcent
i noticed that in 2.3.4 which i updated yesterday.....i tried to delete the conversation with lots of sms and it was smooth again, it wasn't doing so in 2.3.3. they fix one thing and another goes off, classic!!
gabrio
I fixed it actually by taking off split view. So far so good.

[Q] Keyboard lag in email app

I noticed some strange keyboard lag while typing up an email yesterday. I though it was my keyboard acting up(i use swiftkey 3) but I tested it on the stock samsung keyboard and the same thing happened. I then switched over to the Gmail app and tried it. Typing on the gmail app was as smooth as butter. I wonder if I could have a few of you give it a test for me.
I need a few of you extremely quick texters to open up the native samsung email application and compose a new email. Write a bunch of sentances as quick as you can without stopping. Try to rely on the auto correct feature. Any keyboard will do(stock samsung, swiftkey 3, or any other) I have found that the lag starts about 2 sentances in or sometimes sooner.
Do you have the same issue?
Yrah i notice it too, sometimes lag starts off right off the bat when writing an email. Also, i get some lag when scrollingbthrough the default web browser and xda app. A few minuted ago lag got so bad it took almost two seconds to scroll down half a page on the xda app.
Almost makes me feel like returning it. I was also only runing xda app and the browser.

I am thinking that its not the phones fault. I also have lqg in those apps you mentioned but I have no lag in the Gmail appa and others. I think these are fixable software bugs and they can be fixed.
