Cleanrom 1.7 GBE - HTC Rezound

As I'm a new registered user I'm forced to make this post here.
I have been experiencing some lag with the 1.7 rom in conjunction with Slideit. When I select a text box it will take 2-3 second before the onboard keyboard shows up.
I have tested this with Swype and it doesnt suffer from this lag. I can't even get to 1. Now i know the smart thing to do is just use swype and i most likly will but i wanted to let people know that it is a problem and maybe they can correct it.

It wouldn't allow you to tag this to the existing CleanRom thread?

Are you using the free version of that keyboard? I'm on a different ROM but was using the free version and know exactly what you were talking about. It was incredibly annoying. It would take way too long for the stupid keyboard to open up. I bought the keyboard anyway just to try it and all my problems went away. I haven't noticed the lag and have had better results with my typing since buying it. Just a thought.

No I'm using the 10 cent version that google had on sale a few months ago.
I'll just try a reinstall and see what is wrong

[Q] Swype 3 beta...

Can we do this w/o root?
Swype 2 sucks after the 3b version >_<
The installer requires you to disable swype (uncheck it as an available keyboard) before it will allow you to install the beta.
Work around thought;
backup on the 4g, restore to the 3d? But I think licensing problems will exist =(
On Swype site it says if your phone came with swype it won't work.

Yeah, well, I thought maybe someone knew a trick.
If you go to HTC or Sprint's sites, they don't say the 4g can be rooted or custom roms can be flashed... Trust in the community
Anyway, I got it installed from a backup - and it works, I can tap/type with it, but the license isn't valid due to the strange install procedure, so no swyping
I uninstalled the "update" and it works again in 2.x mode :-/
Soon enough, I suppose.

try this and tell me if it works. make sure android keyboard is selected in kb settings. retore your backup of swype beta installer and swype kb, go open messaging and then change your imput method back to swype.
im thinking this will work

Completely agree. I was diggin' the 3 beta on my Hero and this version on the E3D is terrible.
I don't get why swype can't figure out how to let us update the app to the beta. seems rather simple but maybe im missing something.

Since the app is installed by the OEM in an area that doesn't allow writing to, you can't overwrite it with the new version. The OEMs also do not allow uninstalling of the app.
It sucks hard! Another reason to root.
The stock swype on the 3VO worked fine for a few days but the last two it has sucked some major ass. Its suggesting words in different languages and not picking anything close to what I intended when I swyped. Anyone else having this problem?
Also, I heard the HTC IME has a similar feature, how does that work for everyone?

SwiftKey qHD problems

Hey all,
Searched the forums for this and found a bit of discussion, but not a fix.
I know some people are using swiftkey x and not having display problems, but for me it's borked, no matter what i do. I've tried clearing app data, removing and reinstalling etc - nothing seems to work. Settings pages occupy about 2/3 of the screen real estate, centered horizontally and stuck to the top of the screen vertically, and when the keyboard is in use, it takes up 80% of the screen but mostly with black empty space. For this latter reason, it's pretty much unusable.
My carrier is Orange UK, but my handset is a retail/SIM unlocked stock ROM. It is up to date with OTA updates.
Is there a fix for this? Or am i screwed?
Thanks all, and apologies if this question has already been answered - i did try in earnest to find it.
Sorry but need to ask... Where did you get it from?
I got mine from the Market and all is good and dandy.

I'm using the betas and havent seen such a problem, be it on stock, cm7 or customized blur roms. Maybe try spare parts and disable that legacy app fix.

No worries The market just like you. In fact i've been a SwiftKey customer for a long long time. My old SwiftKey licence seemed to transfer over to SwiftKey X when it was formally released. I did have the X beta, and at first it was fine, then after one particular update it started with this screen problem, and has been that way ever since, even after the official first release.

This sounds hopeful! I haven't heard of spare parts but im assuming its some sort of tweaking program? I can use it to disable some sort of legacy fix for older, none qHD apps? is that right?
EDIT: I installed spare parts but just have the following options on a settings-style screen:
battery history
battery information
usage stats
window anims
transition anims
fancy input anims
fancy rotation anim
end button behavior
haptic feedback
compatibility mode
wifi sleep policy
activity/process management
brightness mode
font size
show compass in maps
Only one which looks promising is compatibility mode?
EDIT2: Thanks a lot for that crnkoj - got it working! For all who're reading this thread and want to know: use spare parts to disable compatibility mode!
Sure, np. And ye, i meant compatibility fix just didn't remember the correct name.

Can someone test Swype for me?

Hey guys!
I have a small favor to ask, and I figure this is probably the best place. I was wondering if anyone with the Note could open up a quick text message with Swype on and try something for me.
When the keyboard pops up, take your index finger and swipe back and forth very quickly on the letters. You don't have to type anything specific, just go back and forth fast.
Could you let me know which of the two scenarios occur?
1) Nothing happens until you finally stop swiping and when you do, you get one long word and/or a message saying that it wasn't recognized; or,
2) You get a bunch of small words that are being entered WHILE you're going back and forth.
One of these two have to result, and I found some inconsistencies with the touch screen today.
Thanks <33
Both occur depending on speed when I go at the speed I would have used on my Captivate it breaks it up into little words (used swype for almost two years so quickly) but when I slow down it works normally. I found this issue out when I first got my phone and sadly had to switch from swype as I cant swype near "full speed".

Ok, so I'm assuming that you're saying your Note is affected by this as well?
I ask because I was in the vicinity of a few other Notes today. The issue was confirmed on 2 out of the 5 devices. You could not force the Swype to break on the other 3 no matter how insanely fast you swiped. I have a feeling the issue is a little more wide-spread that I had originally thought. Swype is literally unusable for me in this state, I can't swipe nearly as fast as I'm used to, and it causes me to actually type way slower than I'm used to because of it. I have a replacement on the way, but I wanted to dig a little into the problem in the meantime.
Edit:
I wanted to add, it doesn't matter which rom I'm on, which version of Android, or which version of Swype. I've tried it all.
I don't have any issues on mine. I do use the s pen tho. Pretty damn fast too. Quick question though, do you usually Swype back and forth whilst typing etc.

Swiping back and forth is just a surefire way to reproduce the problem. For someone that swipes fast, it makes the problem a real issue. A friend of mine on an unaffected Note tried using mine to swype and he instantly recognized that he wasn't able to.

Yes it also affects my note making it impossible to use swype. I figured this is true for all notes. And same doesn't matter it simply doesn't work though it may be my screen protector do you have one?

I'm on DAGr8's A2 and I'm using Swype version 3.26.92D.38303.t0.8611.ENSP from the International Note forum.
Edit: I have had the short word issue in the past on GB on the Note. I hadn't tried it on ICS yet. Just out of curiosity, and only because I just did this, what happens if you boot into CWM and format cache (not dalvik). It's the option under mounts and storage -> format cache. I did it just before this because of the CWM log errors on ICS.

Sounds like you have a good Note.
I've formatted the cache partition about 40 times since I've had the Note. My problem persists through all of that. It was an issue with the stock GB, and DAG's ROM, and the ICS roms that I'm testing now. They are all the same.
I am envious of you. Hopefully my new one will work right.
Other tweaks I've made since upgrading to ICS has been to reduce my animation transitions to .5x (from 1x) and reduce VM heap from 256 to 128.
Just trying to think of any little thing that might help for some reason.
Edit: also have 2D rendering forced on in developer settings.

Mine will not enter words until I finish no matter how fast I go. I've never had issues with my swype. I use the s.pen and a glas.t protector. Using the swype version from the international forums. On saurom r6. haven't changed any swype settings.

Edit: interesting. just tried the same using my finger instead. get short words a lot. sometimes none, but often it starts breaking it up. So I think someone else reported this same finding so it must lie somewhere within that. To me though I hate using swype with my finger. Unless I just washed my hands there's way too much drag to swype quickly. With the s.pen I can go twice as fast and oddly enough this issue does not appear.

Yep, that's the issue. I dislike using the s-pen for Swype, but that's totally a preference thing. I can go as fast as I need to with my finger, most of the time.
There is a variable here somewhere. You are inflicted with the same issue with your finger that a couple of us have, where I've personally tested this on two Notes where I could confirm it wasn't a problem. I hate to just think it's some flaw in the touch screens, but I don't know what else to try.
Can you upload your build.prop? I want to compare it to mine.

I'll have to flash up again later. I'm currently testing an unannounced and unreleased ROM so I have to be careful which heavily modified files go out.
Are you on GB or ICS? I'll go stock later, confirm that the problem is still there, then I'll upload it.
I'm on ICS.
And I'm curious what you're testing...

[Q] Pull down menu problems

I just got my phone and most of the time when receiving a email I'll pull down the menu and it keeps going back up automatically. After trying like 3 times it finally stays down. Does anyone else has this issue?
Not to insult your intelligence or anything but are you pulling the bar all the way down? When I was on GB if I didn't pull it all the way down it'd wonk out on me and shoot back up if I did it too fast.

I had the same issue on GB. I head to drag it almost all the way down to the bottom of the screen. Now on ICS I can just flick the bar downwards and it does the rest.

Yes I pull it all the way down like 3 times then if lucky it will stay down. After reading emails the pull down menu works fine.The work arounds I found is to put my finger at the top of screen and quickly flick downward then it will stay. With my old phone using it's default rom and Cyanogenmod 7, this never happend. The second work around is to use a small app called, One Click Status Bar. Place it on the home screen and when it's tapped the menu drops down.

Your phone must be rooted to have ICS. I'm debating on doing this because I like using CyanogenMod. One of the problems with rooted phones is that the market doesn't recognize the phone and paid apps disappear and it force closes alot.

I flash around a lot usually spending about a couple weeks on different Roms to test and compare features and I can say I never had a problem with Google play ever recognizing any of my paid apps.
The force closes on the other hand do happen, but very rarely if you run a good rom, and don't do anything you're not supposed to

When a phone is rooted the Google server no longer knows what device is being used. You can check this out by logging into Google wallet and look under your device list. You'll also notice that some apps show up for different os like with gingerbread and some don't for ics. After rooting the server doesn't know what apps work with the phone and at times makes some of your paid apps disappear and preventing potential future downloads.

Very true, I apologize. But you must realize that this site EXISTS for the simple idea that we, the members of it(evidently not all of them), do not want our phones stock.
The only support you'll get from a stock ROM, is from the at&t store.
and the "was not" was meant that way. I feel its a stronger form of the word rather than wasn't
This discussion got troublesome and way, way off topic.
But the bottom line is man, if you want to stay stock, there's really nothing we can do, other than advise to wipe data/factory reset via 3e recovery.
What you may have thought you knew about issues that come by rooting your phone, are maybe 1 in a 100, and most likely caused by the person themselves.
There are a few ROM's that are based on at&t "official" leaks. but there rooted.

I think you may be confusing some of your facts. That may hold true for some unbranded chinese tablets running ICS. Those ROMs have to operate as a brand name "something else" just to get market to recognize the device.
The same is not true with our phones. Root away! The issues you're concerned about do not exist on name brand android devices.

Crazy lag when writing notes?

Hey all.
I know this issue is known in some Sammy forums, so maybe it's an Android issue?
I take my XZU to the gym and use the Notes app to track progress. The note gets pretty long, and after some time every keyboard input takes 3 - 5 seconds before it shows up on screen - so writing 'squats: 80, 75' takes almost a minute! I'm using Swiftkey, which helps due to the predictive typing feature - but none the less I would've assumed XZU has the power to write notes without lag
Anyone know what causes this, or anyone else experiencing it?
Also, I've tried more than one note takin app. Issue persists.
I'm on a sprint galaxy nexus, but i use SwiftKey as my main keyboard of choice. The lag has been here, for me, since the last 2 updates. However, it seems that it got worse on the latest update. I do like the new themes though [emoji4]

Try using the stock keyboard? Also check Swiftkey's resource usage when it starts to lag. I have written quite a lot on my Ultra, and I have never experienced any slowdowns that I can remember, but I don't use Swiftkey.

I just tried stock, same thing - about one sec delay or more for every keystroke.
As it isn't keyboard related, any other tips? This only happens when I use Notes luckily, but it does irk me.
As an alternative to fixing the slow notes, have you tried using apps specifically designed for logging workouts? They'll probably save you time and give you a better overview.

Then it's probably the notes app you're using. Try using a different one and see if that solves it.

I could, and maybe should do that. It's just that I fear it might be more time consuming than just typing in exercise, reps and sets - plus it allows for much more customization. I'll look around the playstore though, might find something that serves my purpose.

Already mentioned that I did. I use the stock Notes app that came with the rom (Monx), and tried Natural Notes as well. The lag across apps is what made me post here, thinking it might be an Android issue - apparently not
