[Q] Sticky/slow Typing - HTC Rezound

As the title suggests, typing is very difficult on my Rezound. It has been since I first got it. As I try and type, my key presses take a long time to register. This happens to me regardless of rom or keyboard. Does anyone else have this problem and know of a fix? Thanks.

Hmmm... I have heard of this, but mostly on custom ROMs using Swype, the fix was to enable Force GPU rendering in the Settings-Developer options section. If it is enabled already, try disabling it.
Other than that, does everything else that uses the touchscreen work fine? Have you done a factory reset?

I have always used the SwiftKey keyboard to type. At the moment I am using the Adrenaline 2.0 Rom and in Landscape mode there is significantly more lag vs portrait mode. I'm flashing an Rage 1.6 atm. Hopefully that will change it.
Or maybe I just text way too fast.. lol

Thanks for the response. I'm not a big fan of Swype. I am currently using SwiftKey but I have tried many different keyboards. I never type in landscape but I just tried typing in landscape and am getting the same issues with "sticky" keys. I've tried enabling gpu rendering for a week, and then disabling it for a week and have the issue regardless.

Screen sensitivity change after ICS?

Has anyone noticed a change in how the touchscreen behaves after installing ICS?
It seems to me that it is biased a little more towards interpreting a touch as swipe or scroll rather than select. For example clicking links in a webpage or tapping icons on the homescreen seem to require a much more deliberate effort to select/open. It's not awful, but I would like to be able to bias it back a little more to selecting rather than swiping.
Is there a setting for this anywhere or an app available that allows adjustment?
I would to know too.. I hate this..
But it's not just from latest ICS 4.0.3 International, the Beta version also suffer same thing.
Is HC not like this? (I upgraded to 4.0.3 Beta as soon as after bought Mediapad )
Yes, I noticed it also. When you turn on Settings - Developer options - Pointer location, it clearly shows how your clicks/dots becomes swipes/lines.
yes, you're right.. it sometime (most time ) cause texting experience not so fluid (letter not appear as it's detected as swipe not click).
got the same thing.. i've changed the launcher, so with the Apex launcher it's not that bad in the homescreens.. when i enabled the option to show "pointer location" i can see the "tap" as a line, or a "swipe" line :\
tried the same on my Galaxy S, and all the "taps" are only a small point.. it's much better than on the MediaPad.. i hope it's just a software issue and it can be solved..
maybe, we could try something like "screen booster" or "touchscreen booster" from the Market (Play)
Erratic screen while charging
The other thing I've noticed after ICS international is that the touchscreen is now erratic while charging and in a case. I believe this is a common problem with capacitive touchscreens, but hadn't noticed it until after flashing ICS. It is not an issue if I remove the pad from the case and hold it in my hand.
Anyone else seen this?
This sensitive touchscreen isn't Angry Birds friendly. Constantly shakes a little bit.
soooo.....is there any solutions?

Not unless huaweis coders tweak it or releases the source code.

Tilt sensor/accelerometer issues

Was really excited to see Tomb runner in play store but after downloading was unplayable cause the tilt sensor doesn't seem to work in the game, seems fine on home screen etc.... anyone else having this problem or found any workarounds?
Hmmm.. does it work elsewhere for your tablet? Tombrunner works fine, with tilt, on mine.
its fine in other apps, which build of the os are u on? Settings-About tablet-Build number... Mines B016 at the end...
Did you try to uninstall and reinstall? It worked for me
Tried everything, reinstall, reset tablet but no joy... Im gonna try the ICS beta ROM.

Absolutely worth the upgrade and I cannot recommend it more highly. I just updated to ICS b08 last night (from 006) and it continues to be a significant upgrade in the little things. Screen seems more responsive, performance better to the eye, and so on. Absolutely worth it, regardless of tomb runner. 8)
It's working great on ICS 08 rom. But playing something like angry birds and tip off basketball is harder than it should be because the touchscreen filtering algorithm either non existent or were set to a very low number so you can't have a steady touch (try to just touch the screen in the browser and it's shaking... Or just activate pointer location in developer options to visually see the touches). Despite this problem, I still think that this rom is better than the hc ones.

i red it somewhere on web and when happened it to me it worked.
Solution:
1. turn off screen tilt function
2. turn off auto screen brightness
3. turn on screen tilt function
4. turn on auto screen brightness
weird? try it

Home screen / auto rotate use orientation sensor. Games use accelerometer. If you or anyone else having accelerometer issue, try disabling compatible coordinate mode in setting - developer options.
As for me otherwise - enabling compatible options.

[Q] software keyboard help

Hey guys,
Basically I just need a keyboard that is going to work effectively for me. I have tried a fee like swift key x for tablet but its auto correct is terrible IMO and I think it misses letters I am typing when my sped gets up. The go keyboard I also tried but its format doesn't like my thumbs or fingers. At the moment I am using the default android keyboard and it works great but slows down and freezes up while doing urls, Facebook and a little bit while typing this. It may be because i run in eco power mode most of the time, but even when i do try in balanced i tend to still notice it a bit. In Polaris it works great though. So what keyboard should I be getting? Paid or not.
Thanks,
Thumb Keyboard is working great for me.

Laggy on screen keyboard on stock and custom roms

Hi,
First time posting but I've been following stock and custom rom threads since the prime came out.
I installed several onscreen keyboards cause I didn't really like to use the dock (The caps lock key takes a few seconds to turn on when I press it). I tried several apps including thumb keyboard, swype, hacker's, slideIT and all of them seem to lag. As is when I type "THIS" too fast it register all of the keys (I see them light up) but it only produces "TIS" or "TS" or "HIS."
I browsed through the forums and have turned off the autocorrect and word completion on "language and settings" on stock and also the settings of each of the keyboard apps and I still get the same. I've also used apps to clear the cache to see if it makes a difference but have had no success. The android stock keyboard seems to be the fastest which is weird. I just tested the new CM10 with JB and the lagginess is worst on the stock keyboard. :crying:
This is really annoying cause after using wookie's and CM roms my prime seems to be alive again and I really want to like it . I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same.
I'm really looking for advice and not so much for "go get the Ipad if you complain so much" or "just use the dock." As stated before I have problems with my caps lock key.
Thanks!!

[Q] Strange glitch while typing a text message

I recently moved from a fried Sprint Epic 4G to the new Evo. Fully stock, I've noticed that there is a momentary screen flash of... something (can't quite make out what it is, it's so quick) while typing a text message in landscape mode. This is true even on my current ROM (MeanROM ICS 4.2). As far as I can tell, there aren't any strange pauses or whatnot, and it doesn't matter what keyboard I use (stock HTC or Swiftkey 3). First - does anyone else have this problem? And second, has anyone successfully solved it? It's more maddening than anything else, as I can keep typing my texts just fine after it happens (like once every 5-15 words).
Thanks
Just did a landscape test. Didn't notice any flashes on the screen. Not sure where Im suppose to be looking. Fully Stock

Same issue here using swiftkey but in portrait mode. Its like the keyboard flashes real quick.
Yep same here. Imma SwiftKey user as well. Beenn seeing this for sometime now. No explanation for it either

Same here... SwiftKey on two phones, EVO Lte and GS3 does it on both.
Stock swypes been doing it for me in portrait mode as well. It looks like the screen is tearing over the keyboard with part of it getting garbled.
Redraw issue, might be something in the HTC framework
Ok, seems like I'm not the only one. Also, I've noticed it comes more often right as a text is incoming in the messaging app. The problem seems to persist across some keyboards and across some phones, but not others. Smells like a simple ICS issue.
Now, howbout the screen backlight flickering issue during onscreen grays and while looking at photos in the Gallery? I'm thinking of switching out my phone in the Sprint store tomorrow.
I've also started running in to this lately. For me it's only been happening with SwiftKey in portrait mode, and only in the messaging app, haven't had issues with this anywhere else.
