JASJAR Slow wakeup and dialing - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hay,
I'm using i-mate jasjar, and since day 1 (bought it sep 2005) i've had the problem of slow wakeup and generally slow response. I've run suggested apps such as pocket mechanic etc to remove duplicate wake-up hooks etc, with only slight effect. I've tried several ROMs, none better than the other... I have no extra software installed (i don't want to make it slower than it already is!)
*From i hit a button till the device is (awake) accepting commands takes 10-20 secs...
*From someone starts ringing till my phone is awake enough to start ringing takes 8-10 seconds. clicking the answer button takes another 5+ seconds.
*Dialing is slow (pressing numbers), i suspect it's the DTMF .wav files that take time to load. If i dial too fast, the order of keys pressed are messed up! (say i dial 1-2-3-4, phone takes 4-5 seconds to react, then types 1-2-4-3)
*When i have the usb on, and screen is on, from i click start button, it takes 5-10 seconds before it's displayed. I've tracked this down to a problem reading the icons of certain programs.. any fix for this?
I'm using rom 1.30.76(ext .164), radio 1.09.
This is the latest i-mate rom.
Is my device faulty or is this normal behaviour? Should i try another ROM? Is there any unbranded *good* ROMs out there?
please help,
Michael

VERY abnormal! I had same issue. Solved it here:

Hope it's the same thing for you. If not, work HARD on ID'ign what's on the SD card - and do my test I descroibe with the SD card removed - I bet you see an immediate improvmeent.

Try this
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\"
Change "CacheSize" value from "0" naar "4096".
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize=0x1000(4096)"
Change "EnableCache" value to "1"
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\"
Change "ReplStoreCacheSize" value to "4096"

disable the 3D phone skin and use the default one it dont has the feature where when typing in a number thats already in the phone book will show . it also looks flat . but its fast .check wiki registry hacks for it . if that dont work install the latest o2 rom with out o2 crap apps then get sktools use sktools and config divise to proformance. trust me it will make your divice fast as wip.
faster than all cooked roms on here

Hi again,
cragiecragie4, I tried removing SD card, no improvement whatsoever on speed.
niketkumar, I tried the cache registry changes, no improvements.
tattootroy, I've run several performance optimizing programs but none make it for the better. What makes this app different?
I still suspect my device may be faulty or bugged, since my friend's device appears faster...
The old I-mate rom was alot faster than the current one, but i don't want to downgrade radio and functionality etc...
Any ROM suggestions?

I'm using the ROM covered here - seems good.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=279258&page=1
Done a LOT of installation and work after basic re-flash, but overall I havn't found any bugs at all (despite what others complain about). Sorry, except that the .NET CF2.0 is badly installed.
Did you run my test? Remember that if you remove SD it will still be slow once, then fast thereafter. Did you work thro it properly. I SOOO had your symptoms, and was so pissed with the whole thing I was about to reflash - then I found that this was definitely the issue.

hi, i had the same pb. i didn't find any solution on french forums and as i suspected my radio upgrade (from 1.09 to 1.13) and my downgrade to 1.13: i decided to hard reset and re install every app on my qtek 9000. Since then it works perfectly. hope it will help...

No ring when JasJar is closed

Hi,
I searched the forum to get the solution but no luck.
Hope someone can help me with the following:
My problem is that if my i-mate JasJar screen is in closed position it will not ring when somebody calls me and they get my voicemail.
When the screen is open and somebody is calling it rings and I can answer.
Can anybody tell me how to set the JasJar, so when the screen is closed it will ring when I get a call and I can pickup with the phone buttons on the side.
Regards
ber00469
You have to check version of your Radio Rom . For me it's look that you have version 1.06 or earlier. It happens often with this version. Try to change - actualy the best is v 1.09 or newest 1.11
imate blows...
Hi,
I've had my jasjar (what a name) for just a little over one month and despite having updated the unit to the latest ROM, I still experience missed calls. This occurs whether the unit itself is open or closed.
I contacted imate and got nothing but grief and extreme agravation while attempting to speak with their "live" online help. Useless.
Wish you luck.
edved.
Well thats unfortunate for the above person, however you will find like 90% of users that a Rom upgrade will correct the problem and it will generally ring on the end of the first ring or end of the second ring.
In any case since the upgrade I havent missed anycalls when ive had the device near me so.
Hopefully it will work for you too.

I upgrade my rom from xda to latest qtek 9000 and radio 1.11.
The problem is again there
What's happen ? Have some idea ?
ok, some suggestions:
1. extended the ring period from 10 seconds to 30 seconds (via phone settings, or via your phone provider)
2. Make sure your ring tones are in windows\rings not on an sd card
3. Use smaller ring tones, that run less than 30 seconds and start up quickly
4. Disable the video call feature and use the original phone pad if you can do without video calls and the "nice" phone pad
5. Ensure that anyting tying that runs at startup is installed to the device, so when it does start, it doesnt need to start loading dlls and apps when it wakes up.
Rule of thumb, if its needed at startup, or needed on the today screen install to the device.
If none of these work, please provide more details of your device. It is highly unlikely to be the device, and more likely to be what you have done to it. So we would need a summary of answers to the above, plus details of what is installed to what location (device or card).

1. was done
2. was done
3. use just the original ringtones
4. was done
5. I've done HR and then there was no problem. So I,ve reinstalled just the Hack performancetweackhighresource and the problem come again.
So, I think the problem is on the use of cache from the hack.
Thank's a lot for suggestion.

We found in Poland that sometimes it happens on the edge of network coverage ( ie UMTS). Radio unit is checking signal every few second and change band from GSM to UMTS - it can create problems. So if you are on the edge turn off UMTS plz.

I think about this but I'm in a full covered umts area.
Looking at the hack i've seen it use half cache size and so, I think, it freeze rings from memory.
i also had a problem with that performance tweak and never used it again after my last hard reset.
i find the device with the latest rom runs pretty well with minimal amount of tweaks.
try to undo the performance tweak manually, and see how you go. if necessary HR (painful i know) and rebuild it without.
i would also suggest backup software at the stages through the rebuild so that it can all be repaired and rebuilt.

Sorry to be thick but are we talking about the fatfs cache size?
Am sure mine (m5000) came with this enabled and set to 4096 - is this the default?
or are we talking about the font cache tweak?
thanks

HD2 often doesn't wake up ?

Hi
My HD2 often fails to wake up when I press any of hard button. Before I perform a hard reset I wanted to ask you guys if there are any tweaks or apps which might be causing this. I am using the stock T-Mobile UK firmware, and besides tweaking a few settings via BsB Tweaks, the phone is pretty much in its original state.
My previous HD used to do this for a time, until I realized it started happening after setting up Windows Exchange server. After hard resetting and setting everything up again, it worked fine. I wonder if the problem I have with the HD2 is also due to the exchange server.
Sometimes the phone does wake up a couple of minutes after I pressed buttons, sometimes an incoming SMS helps it. And many times it just wakes up as it should when I press the Home or power button.
I don't have many apps installed, besides Tomtom.
Cheers !
Hi, the same was to me: sent an sms, locked the device, tried to unlock it in half an hour - screen blank, no response to buttons at all. ROM is stock. I remember, I also had TomTom installed and some other popular tweaks, not remember which exactly. After it, I did hard-reset the phone (restored original state). Didn't had the same problem after it.
But had a lot of other problems with HD2 - unsent sms even after sms fix from HTC, unlock screen of S2U2 locked completely (someone was calling me at this moment!), sporadic change of clock time zone...
It is my first smart-phone, and I'm disappointed soooo much... Used "true" mobile phones for years, but never had such problems.
I had the same problem but it's seemed to have stopped (for about 2 days now). It got to the point where the phone wouldn't get past the boot screen! I had to re-flash in the end....
I think it may be related to the applications I may have running. Although, most people are saying the ROMs so far are not 100% stable. (I'm running the Official Test version of 1.61)
The things I've done to try to get around it is :
- Ensure .NET compact frame work is installed to set up 3.5 and set up correctly in the registry
- Once in a whie I run the cleanRAM application that's been developed here on these forums
I don't think I've found the total solution yet, but I'm sure having these in check will help.
To give an update :
I did a hard reset yesterday. (it's always painful, but also exciting as you can set it up from start - sad i know)
This time I set up the windows exchange server straight from the beginning, then installed all the tweaks, tomtom, hotfixes etc. It woke up everytime since then, touch wood !
I'm not sure, but there are security policies pushed through to the device (like making screen lock compulsary etc) when I set up the exchange server, maybe this is causing some sort of conflict with the device, which is maybe somehow avoided when you set it up before anythin else... I dunno.
I'll let you know if it fails to wake up again.
By the way, so far I only installed BsB tweaks, but didnt apply any tweaks yet. I changed the battery percentage display, 16 quick links cab, and 3G switch in the Coms Manager, but that's it. No tweaking in the registry yet, just so that I can determine the root cause if it happens again. But so far it looks good ! It also seems faster (as it always does
Is it still running stable ?

It has been pretty much stable. Since the hard reset I was adding (or tweaking) tweaks and cabs in a controlled manner to see which one might be causing the freezing.
After I installed the Disable Auto Device Lock.cab (search the forum, I think it is in the sticky Tips and Tricks post), my HD2 didn't wake up a few times. I uninstalled dit and it is working fine again.
Weird, but maybe that's the registry change that conflicts with the exchange server policies that are pushed to the device, and causes the freeze.

highly unstable hd2, help...

hi all, i resently got the hd2, updated it with the new rom, and thereby hoped to be free of errors... however i seem to experiense a whole lot of error, more than i had expected... sometimes it wont come back from sleep, it only turns on the backlight of the hardware buttons. then i have to kill it by removing the battery. also sometimes it wont establish connection to the net, then i have to turn off the radio and turn it on again. the phone is 7 days old, and i have had the battery out 20 times allready... is this unusual? should i contact htc? and what are your experiences with their support?

I would recommend a hard reset and not installing any software or doing any "tweaks" and test that for a bit.
You should find that fully functioning and stable (on 1.66 ROM) from there add the software that you need and see how that goes and don't bother doing the treaks, registry hacks unless
a) you know what your actually doing and what it changes and​b) you actually need the change.​
ok, I'll try that is the new ROM from htc that unstable?
as above.... test it with just the 1.66 rom, nothing added, and if it's still unstable get it replaced under warranty.
1.66 ROM is also unstable...
..or if I may refraise: Using ROM 1.66 is no guarantee for stability. My HD2 crashes or locks often when I use the phone functionality. No program or app have made the phone crash. I have tried to monitor what apps are running but I´ve not been able to conclude anything. Hard reset has been done followed by a backup restore.
Now I am uninstalling programs each at a time to see if this improves.
dont restore your backup, there could well be something in your backup causing a problem.
(depending on what you have backed up)
hard reset, or ideally task 29 and reflash then just use it as it is.....
use ms myphone to backup your contacts and sms if you need to.

Today Screen distorted/degraded + phone crash after about 15 minutes talking on phone

Need help here; not sure whether this is ROM dependent. Don't exactly remember when the problems started; the problems are:
(1) I have disabled the Sense and have been using the traditional Today screen with various plug-ins, etc. After about 10-15 minutes phone call, the Today screen will become like the attachment. First will be like the one at the left, then a few minutes later it will become like the second photo. Then a few minutes later, the entire phone will crash and a soft reset will be forced automatically.
(2) At the middle of the night while the device was charging, the device will "sleep to death". Press the hardware buttons the lights on the buttons will light up but the screen is dead. Only a removal of the battery can re-start the device.
What I have done and didn't help was:
(1) refresh the ROM
(2) refresh only the radio
(3) upgrade the ROM (and radio)
(4) Mtty
(5) Hardreset and re-install programs one by one (not from backup)
For reference, I am running on dZenkinz's Merlion ROM 2.40. HSPL was installed.
Please advise what could have caused the above problems and appreciate any advices.
Do MTTY again and flash a stock ROM directly after the task 8.
Do not install software that could cause problems (e.g. I see you are using batti or similar, this program always made troubles with my phones).
Try using the ROM a while without a storage card.
If the problem still persists I would send it in for repair.
Thanks for the advice.
I MTTY and flash my device to 1.66 shipped ROM via microSD card (to override the HSPL by the stock SPL, just in case that was the culprit of the color distortion and phone crash problems). I install some "barely minimum" software to keep it going, which included:
- Resco explorer
- Klaxon alarm
- cootek Touchpal 3.5
- BsB Tweaks
- HD2Tweak
- Palringo (an Instant Messaging client)
Everything seems fine after about 10 hours of usage - no hangs, no sleep to death, no color distortion, some short phone calls didn't crash the phone ...
This morning I had a 30 minutes phone call. To my surprise, the color distortion came back, the device was hanged (no crash, nor reset automatically) but the phone conversation was still on. After the phone call was finished, the device was not responsive to any key or screen presses. Only removal of the battery brought the device back to life.
What could be the possible culprit? I have since removed the Cootek 3.5 (which was designed for wm 6.1) to test again. I don't think all other software I have installed could have possibly caused the problems.
Any advice from the expert here?
Appreciate all help here. Thanks in advance.
It still seems like a software issue.
Would be best to make a hardreset again and then using the phone without installing ANY software that is permanently active.
- Resco Explorer v8 is good, I'm using this myself
- BSB Tweaks I am using without problems too
I would suggest to not install
- Klaxon alarm (you can search for G-Alarm 1.5 instead, it's the last free version, and can be found somewhere in this forum. G-Alarm I was using too without probs.)
- cootek Touchpal 3.5
- HD2Tweak
- Palringo (I heard of strange phone behavior from other people that were using this program)
Then see what happens after a while.
As said before, if it doesn't help you'll need to send your device in for repair.

Seriously preformance issues

Hi.
I have to soft reset my HD2 all the time because it often lags too much.
I will now list the things which makes me wanna reset my device:
- The HD2 lags so badly, that most actions take up to 5 seconds.
- One application can crash (mostly HTC_Messaging), and I have to soft reset.
- When I write messages, the keyboard has a input lag of 5-10 seconds.
- Screen wont turn on when I push the buttons
- The device wont unlock when I slide the slider, it just stops up.
Now this happens each time I upgrade my ROM, and I am currently using Artemis now.
The programs I've installed each time is:
- FingerKeyboard
- Touch X reset and wifi
- Touch X button icon in messaging
and now I use WMLongLife also.
My SD-card is an 8GB card.
So if someone could help me, I would be happy.
(Sorry for bad english.)

Start again. Install nothing and just configure settings.
Does it run slow and crash then?
If so you have problem that could be harware.
Try another ROM and if the same then I think you need to return the unit.
If all runs fine on a clean, vanilla phone then you are doing something in the install process that is causing the instability.
Try installs one by one to the phone mem and check operation each time.
NB. Some background info would have been helpful. ROM version, Model etc!

The problem is that I can't predict when its gonna happen. It can happen randomly, and then I have to restart the phone. After the restart, everything works normal and perfect.
This can happen upto three times a day, some days it wont happen at all.
Currently using 2.10.531.7 Artemis, but this also happens with the stock ROM. The newest one that is. My radio version is 2.06.51.07
Its kinda difficult to run things vanilla phone, cause the applications I use, I need.
for me htc messaging has never crashed...
i suggest you to flash a stock rom, 1.66 for example and try it without the sent button.
if there are still problems, u can try using mtty or send it back for repair...
edit: i had the problem where the phone was freezing while loading for a long time (over night), and the display won´t turn on. Switched back to manually update Facebook, Twitter and Weather, and had no more problems since...

Well I think its crashing.
That's what I usually use when I lock the screen. So sometimes when I try to unlock it, I just get half of the messaging program or nothing, on screen. And I cant do anything.
When I try to click the Home-button, it respons in some seconds and Home-screen is all laggy.

When you lock the phone apps still run in the back ground as if asleep and when you unlock they attempt to restore themselves as they were before the lock.
You have something clashing installed and that is calling the registry at the same time as something else. Remember when windows full size used to do it?.
I think you have a badly written piece of software installed (either preloaded or installed by yourself) and suggesting starting from vanilla is a way to issolate it!
i've also had similar problems as you. after hard reseting a couple of times, i noticed that the intermittent lag began after i started syncing my phone to my PC and myphone. it turns out that my terrible management of appointments, messages and contacts was the root of my problem (several duplicates of everything, and almost 5000 text messages). i suggest you attempt to work your phone a couple days without loading up any PIM information, archive messages and remove duplicates (sktools is excellent at doing this)
i suggest you do something similar, it really helps. i was able to get my device to prrform as well as when i still had the vanilla ROM
best of luck! your device is better than you think!
Also, use the Task Manager, and close applications that you don't use, especially the Internet browser and applications that use data connection. These ones can really block the phone when connection is intermittent.
Yet again, I'm left dumbfounded by claims of "serious" issues with this device. I just don't understand how almost everyone has a "story" regarding the HTC HD2 being SLOW or LAGGY. Fortunately for me, I haven't soft reset my unit in 46h 5m 19s and everything is still running flawlessly.
your phone sounds faulty or something. for me.. even with the Stock 1.66 ROM i had, it was working pretty fast n smooth. now with Dutty's ROM, its faster n smoother than ever. i love this beast
I never have these problem! I used Official or Clean EX HQ roms and never got these problem!
Try a Task 29 and flash with 1.66 Official or Most popular Cook ROM
Pa49: I have only installed the programs which I have listed in the first post. I guess im not the only one using them.
Kev007: I usually have a lot of textmessages when I dont delet them, but thats max 2000. I dont sync my phone with my computer, so no uneccessary contacts or something either. Dont even use calendar, so have no appointments.
Reignzone: It is really bad. It can happen upto three times a day, and I just cant use the phone at all. Just sliding the home-screen to see all my shortcuts takes maybe 10 seconds. I could film it with a camcorder next time it happens so people could see.
The same thing happens each time I've installed a ROM. So it has clearly something to do with the phone and not with the software I've installed.

I get lags too when twitter is updating in the background. You would think a 1ghz processor could do two things at once
Backup your miscrosd. Try a microsd format. Restore your data. See if this helps.
T-Mo US HD2, still completely stock. I was having some issues with sluggish animations, applied many of the tweaks in the sticky threads here, things got better. However, it was super super slow to switch into some applications (SMS *always*, others occasionally).
Eventually I wondered about that fancy Swype keyboard and tried switching back to the full qwerty. All that disappeared and it moves like lightning now, I have to say.
I haven't played with updating Swype or maybe at least loading a ROM without it that I can do a regular install on top of. However, right now I don't miss it .
Lag issues
I have no idea what is causing your issues, but if it travels from one rom to the next, it may be your sd card.
I had an issue with lag in swype and other apps.
I noticed when I popped out the sd card the device instantly unfroze.
I then copied all files except App data and reformatted the sd.
No issues after that.
Hope this helps.
