Keyboard hangs when typing SMS - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hy.
Me and my friend have the same problem: When writing a SMS, the keyboard hangs up occasionally, which is REALLY annoying...
We both have 2.1 and original kb
Is there a fix for that?
Thanks

I am having the same issues. It helps to have the vibrate function off, but it still hangs, but not as much. I'm having issues with the send button as well as I have to press it multiple times to send a message.

It's not good to hear hear that we're not the only ones... Seems to be a generic problem
I hope this will be fixed with the next firmware

Ok, I found out that if you use Handcent SMS, the keyboard don't hang as much.
So I deactivated notifications in the standard-SMS-app and only use Handcend SMS now.
Handcent also turns on the display and turns on the notification led in any color you want :-D

I've also had problems with Swype playing up in the Stock SMS app too... wouldn't swype had to type one key at a time.. and the carriage return key has turned into a smiley!! I' have been trying to keep my customisation to a minimum as I intend to move onto the Generic UK firmware in as soon as I get chance.. however this is annoying!

New text message backlight / alert light

Hi All,
long time reader, first time poster.
I can normally find the answer to any question I have by just looking though the forum or by googling it.
I've only had my HD2 a few months and am very pleased. After over 6 happy years using the XDA2 I thought it was time for a change.
Here's my question. On the XDA2 when a new text message arrived the screen backlight would come on for the set time & the red alert light would flash until I read the text.
With my HD2 this does not happen, so if I don't hear the text message audio alert I don't know I've got a new text.
Can I change my settings to make this happen on the HD2?
I'm on T-mobile, ROM 1.72.110.4, the only none standard thing about the phone is co0kie's home tab.
thanks in advance,
CJ
don't know about screen, but there is quite nice app to blink keypad on missed call, sms, email etc.: LeoExtendedNotifications
this app will let you turn on extended notifications. it does not work with vibration but audio works good. mite have to install it twice, just go to settings-sounds and notifications and turn on all your sounds as this resets them and turn what you want to repeat.

Weird Text Bug - Can't Respond to Messages

This is weird, and just started happening today. I go to respond to a text, and the screen turns black. Hitting the back button makes it go away. I'm using GoSMS. So I tried to use my stock text app - the screen turns white. I can open the message and thread in both applications, it just goes white/black when I type the text field to respond. I tried uninstalling Go to see if it was a bug there (as I have it set to override the stock app) - I also tried a reboot.
No dice. I am on the Affinity ROM Beta. I really hope it's not ROM related, because this ROM screams and is making me happy.
Please help. I can't live without texting - I don't even use my phone for calling really...
Thanks.
EDIT: It was SmartKeyboard Pro. So Affinity is still money. Mods, can you take this down? Thanks...

Keyboard unresponsive

Just today its happened twice. If I go to open my text messages either to compose a new one or to reply to one after pressing on any of the keys the text does not show up that it has been typped. If I do swype it does the word suggestion but does not put the work in. I use SMS unread count other than the default one but it should just launch the default app to compose the message. Has anyone else had this.
I have had a similiar problem since the GB update. Sometimes the touchscreen stops working and I have to put the phone to sleep with the top button and revive it again to get the touchscreen working. I wonder if it is related to the heat problem because it seems to happen most when the phone gets really hot...
Im not on ginger bread though. Im on stock 2.2.2. The phone was never hot either. I just either woke it up to make a new text or to reply to one.

[Q] Vibration and keyboard/sms questions

One thing that's a love/hate thing for me with this phone is the vibration. It's super loud and powerful. At first I loved it, but at work, it's actually a little obnoxious. Every time I get a text you can hear it from the other side of the room. I know with some phones there's options for pattern and intensity.. haven't seemed to find this. Anyone have an idea? I know I could also turn off vibrate notifications and just put the ring volume lower, but that can be just as distracting. And then I have to change it back to vibration on when I leave work.
Also one of my big issues is with the keyboard disappearing after every text I send. I'm using the stock Sense keyboard. I'm unsure if this is controlled by the keyboard itself or the messaging app. Normally this phone is super speedy, but every text I send, the keyboard disappears, and then it requires about 3 seconds before I can load it back up again if I'm sending back to back texts. I've seen this option in other messaging apps to hide/keep the board after sent message. Anyone see this functionality anywhere?
I've got everything stock, btw.

No notifications during chat conversation?

I am using a note 3 with stock 5.0 rooted..
When I get a text.. My phone vibrates and played my notification sound... This works fine.. However.. When I am done reading a text sometimes I just set my phone down with the conversation still open.. And when I receive a new text the phone assumes I am just looking at the conversation because it's open and doesn't give me any kind of notification or vibration what so ever... My girlfriend has got upset on more than one occasion be a use I didn't text her back.. Cause I would check the phone then set it down and then she would text me like 3 times and my phone doesn't tell me.
How can I get it to make a sound or vibrate for every text? Regardless if the app is open or not
bump... would really appreciate some help on this
Yes, my phone on android 5.0 behaves the same.
Generally after reading a text, I usually press home button or lock the screen to make sure i don't miss such notifications..
