Ive messed with pocket cm and a few others. What are you all using for a CM? Anything that loads at least as fast as the stock one?

I use the Pocket CM .16 It loads a bit faster than .15. If you find other let us know.
DJ

pocketcm obviously.

PocketCM .16.

I use PocketCM also...just started actually. I'm having a few problems though. Any help would be appreciated.
1) In SMS, the keyboard pops up even when I'm using the built-in. I can't figure out how to stop it.
2) My outgoing SMS disappear for some reason
3) When I get a new SMS message, I still get the notification from the native messaging program, and not from PocketCM

Can't help with the last two. I get the notifications, didn't think of it as abnormal. The sent message disappearing was just a matter of scrolling down for me.
But the first with the keyboard popping up...
Go to the very top, middle of screen, press it, press "choose SIP" and choose "menubutton.nosip.tex".
If you're using PocketCM keyboard, that is notorious for getting "stuck". I removed it. You have to soft reset to get rid of it.

Thanks Frankenbike. That worked for the SIP.
As for the sent messages disappearing...they're nowhere. As soon as I navigate away from a conversation, they diseappear, and when I go back to a conversation, all of the sent ones are gone and I just have the incoming ones. It's weird.

hey, you need to go into mail settings and tell it to save copies of sent messages, then it will keep all of your sent messages there (don't delete them from the default program either...or they dissappear)
as for the sent message thing, if you look there is a cab file for a registry edit that gets rid of the sent message notification
as for the default messaging taking over... 0.15 would take over sms, but 0.16 won't... yet, it has been discussed on pocketcm.com, and apparently when the full release comes it, 0.16 will do that as well.
goodluck

I'm fed up with PocketCM. It's a great project and service for the community, but it's majorly buggy with every release. Not to mention, I've tried all the suggestions to try and stop it from defaulting as the sms program, but nothing changes.
I don't know what he's talking about when he says change your settings.ini when you received a new text.
I've looked at funcontact and icontact, and both seem much more robust and polished, then again funcontact is not free. I'm gonna give them a shot and I'll report back here =D

remember that pocketcm is still a beta program. its only v.15 stable release. I expect great things once it reaches v1

I tried Finger Friendly, PocketCM (which is good) and a couple others; I just decided to stick with stock. With quick index and touchflo, I can get to whomever I want to call pretty quick...
...and its just one less app loaded and taking room/memory.

Pocket CM Rocks....!!!! HAVENt used anything else. Love my Photo for contacts.. With my Outlook. Its great...

SMS PocketCM NOT sending
I downloaded PocketCM .19 a few days ago. I sent an SMS once and after that it stopped working. What can i do to fix this?

random access
I use the HTC app random access - seems to work well, has all the letters on the side of the screen for finger friendly scrolling. I took it from the all HTC OEM apps post.

FunContacts by vito technology looks like a good smooth app and loads/responds fast (very similar to pocketCM), but I will stick with Random Access until they integrate the SMS (coming soon!) <-- as promised on the website for the past 3 months lol ...http://www.iwindowsmobile.com/
EDIT: of course if Windows Mobile 6.1 delivers as promised with SMS messaging no one will care

definitely a random access guy, myself. tried pocketcm, hated the integrated texting. i like the texting that comes with WM. if there was a way to completely remove it from that app it would be great but ill stick to RA until then

I use icontact. Its easy to use and scrolls with my finger.

I like Pocket CM, much better than the built in WM one. Integrated SMS is great. The built in WM SMS is so clumsy.

You need to hold Send for about a sec or 2. he created a delay and i think on his website he mentions how to lower or higher the threshold

using the original sms prog with pocketcm i find works better

wholly freaking text messaging problems batman!!!

ok so this phone is the best phone i have had.. except who ever tested the text messaging app must not have alot of friends..
i get about 20 people in the list of messages and my whole phone messes up..
i click one guy and the message gets sent to the guy at the bottom of the list.
you gotta really watch out, because it has the right name but the wrong number.
when i click messages from someone with more then 20 it takes 20 seconds to load them up and sometimes when i go back to the today screen the phone crashes..
sometimes i hear the text message sound and i have no new messages..
come to find out the message went ON TOP of the list from that sender.. not on the bottom.
sometimes the indicator that you have a new message never goes away, even after you read it..
anyone else having huge text problems?
first of all great title
im completely with you mate the texting on this phone is a joke
who's clever idea was it to load every single text every time you want to send 1?
plus the keyboard lag is a royal pain in the ass especially as im a fast typer
i have had no problems with sending texts to wrong people however, i think, maybe some people are having a real laugh at my expense..
i hope it gets fixed soon
i just dont understand how an iphone, with some 400mhz processor is 100x smoother than this phone
there must be some real fault somewhere

that was really funny.
ROM 1.66 fixed much of this, but still known bugs remain - as reported in this forum.
You were lucky not to be around in Dec 09, when you had to soft reset every time you sent an sms which got 'stuck' in the Outbox!!!

i forgot to put in that is the tmobile US HD2..
The HTC messaging app is not meant for hardcore text messagers. To stop it from loading every message, you can tap on a message then hit back.
One of the solutions is to disable the HTC messaging and use the default WM6.5 threaded SMS. Google search "disable HTC messaging" and look for Zenyee's CAB to disable it, then look in the WM Theme forum here to find some nice looking WM SMS themes.
The other solution is to disable HTC messaging and use something like BsB Tweaks to enable SMS classic mode, which takes you to an older version of the SMS app when you tap on a message in the messaging tab, that doesn't lag like the new one does, but it doesn't look as nice.

I send 100-150 texts a day, and receive just as much.
I never have any problems.
i use full QWERTY and texting speed is quite nice. I mean, multi-touch keyboard would be NICE, but it gets the job done for now.
As much as TMOUS stock ROM fixed lots of glitches, it still doesn't beat most of the ROMs cooked by chefs here.
Try flashing (at your own risk, of course), then see how much your phone has evolved.
Have you tried changing it from conversation mode to traditional mode?
Menu, settings, traditional mode
are there any different messaging clients which can be used instead?

Is there lag for sms function???

So, I have the original leo version of hd2 and the sms lag has been bothering me since the first day i got my phone in march. I text about 1200 text a month and you have no idea how annoying the sms lag is. So I'm just wondering if there is any sms lag in the T mobile version? Lag such as when you are typing your sms, it takes forever for the history to load and then you would have to tap it again to input your text.
Please let me know, if there isn't any lag at all I will flash my hd2 and put in the T mobile version of manila.
THANKS

Yeah, it exists for a lot of owners of the T-mo version as well. I think the cause in your case (as in many others) is the number of texts you have on the phone. Here's a post I put up about that same thing just last night:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6455539&postcount=2
If you go into menu, options and make the messages standard, not threaded this might help. It worked for me. Also, I custom flashed a rom on my device because the stock was running terribly for me

yes, definitely try this too dicksonjoe, it worked for others besides him as well, and may clear it up before going through clearing your sms. Try what he said first, then what I said if that didn't work
I'm interested to hear if it helps you first to turn off the threading, easier solutions are better solutions!

New Messaging Client

Does anyone know if the new messaging client from the thread below works on the T-Mo US version? More specifically on the original ROM (not the updates one tmobile released with the screen sensitivity issues?)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=700495
That I am not sure b/c in order to install a new messaging you would need to uninstall the old one which is not possible on a stock rom (as far as I know) That sucks too b/c the 1.8 version fixes a lot of the issues you are most likely having
I just installed it last night on the original Tmo HD2 stock ROM (2.10), and it seems to be working just fine for the most part.
I used the 2015 version on that thread, not the 2016. Installed just the cab for the new client, didn't bother updating the .mui file he provides, since I don't care about the securebox. It installed without a hitch and replaced the stock 2012 version of the client.
The only issue I seem to be having is an odd SMS notification icon (new, not sent...) show up in the taskbar, and my batt meter isn't showing there now for some reason. I'm sure I just goofed a step somewhere, I just haven't had the time to figure it out yet.
But, the bottom line is that the client does install and work on the first stock tmo ROM, I just can't say yet if it's faster (though I'm sure it is) because I haven't filled it up with enough messages yet to stress-test it
Same here, installed v15 on stock tmo ROM, so far so good. One minor but annoying bug, it says that i have a new unread text message but i really don't.

There is no need to uninstall the old one, the way WM works with ROM files is an newer file that "overwrites" a ROM file is sorta mapped into place. The original file is still there in ROM but the newer version is used, if the newer version of the file is deleted or app uninstalled then the ROM file comes back.
as already reported this does work I just installed it on mine and it definitely seems faster. i had been archiving all my SMS every week and then deleting the database, I might attempt to reinsert all my weekly archives in and see what happens. Think ill give the messaging app a few days make sure nothing weird comes up.
As for the icon, yeah it did change over the stock sms notification icon. the envelope with word balloon looking icon is gone. now a new sms is a white envelope and new emails are a black envelope. I noticed this change in the 2014 messaging app that i installed a few weeks back

I had seen this prior with the old messaging client while restoring backups into the database. I think the DB entry gets corrupt. If its showing which if your contacts have the unread message, try sending them a message and have them send back. That seemed to have fixed it prior, you could also try a battery pull

Well I stand corrected, I always knew it to not work that way. Thanks for the info!
Yeah I noticed the different icons on 2014 too but I just install a custom taskbar anyway that takes care of that.
So far I noticed that it does improving loading quite a bit. And the issue where it highlights the last message is finally gone, that was my biggest gripe.

Hey Chris, what custom taskbar are you using? I've got dinik's anastasia taskbar icons right now, and the new odd-looking notification icons are still showing unskinned....but, I didn't reinstall the taskbar after putting the new msg client on, so maybe that's what it requires. I'd still like to know which one you're using that skins them though, in case I need to troubleshoot further, thanks!
Just installed it so far so good, seems pretty quick..

These are the 2 files that control the icons in the messaging client.
MessagingRes.dll & MMSRes_480x800.dll
Does this updated message client (2015 and 2016) and anything to the messaging system other than speeding it up? Any new features? I've always found the HTC messaging on the HD2 very lacking compared to say, my Omnia II.

Thanks guys, a simple re-install of the custom taskbar cleared it up
Now, if I could just get rid of the extra sms notification. It always starts at "2", whenever I get a single new incoming message, and won't return to "0" till I soft-reset
i downloaded the 2015 all in one cab and so far so good. well i havent really texted but the only thing thats annoying is that everytime i send a message it tells me it was successfully sent how do i disable that
i know theres is a way i seen the option but i just fogot

What dialer app are you using?

One of the most frustrating issues I have with my Streak is more put less daily force closes and hangs requiring restarts. Although I am using Steve's 1.19 and have been for a while, it seems that nearly all events occur around the time that the phone its being used as a phone.
I have tried Dialer One and Rocket dial but suspect that these are massively memory hungry apps and that they are contributing to the problems. The standard phone app is unusable as it doesn't have T9 search, but I suspect it is light on memory as it loads very quickly.
I can use the Streak all day without an issue but this instability when I use the phone app on one out of ten calls is getting me to the point where I am really wondering what other phones are out there.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
Hope this helps
Yes I have this problem, I found that using the streak 7 dialler (install option in install.txt file) is much better and easier to use it does have its flaws but I find it much better!!
i really like ray dialer in the market its free
Yes the dialer on the streaker is annoying but only because it doesn't remain in portrait, there is not a alphabet header on the contact list, and it doesn't pull up contact choices as you dial in the number. I tried quite a few dialers and I cant recall but I think ray dialer has t9 and number search. However it doesn't completley replace the phonde app.
FYI shortcut for the built in Froyo dialer - Hold the Menu key when in the Contacts to bring up the keyboard \ Search box. This is necessary because Dell (in their infinite wisdom) thought it best to remove the dedicated search key.
Just realized I didn't address the OP. Sorry. I suppose you have gone into manage apps and clear data on Dialer and Dialer Storage?

I had the same issues on DJ_Steve's 1.90 - and ended up going stock and rooted 354... MUCH more stability! However the system phone app still sucked out loud so I installed GO! Contacts which also has a dialer... very nice and works like a charm with full "match as you enter" dialing with favorites.... I find I no longer use the default phone app (thank God) and it's free with some fairly good themes (I use wallet.) I replaced my default phone icon app with the Go Dialer and I'm all set
Good Luck!

Do you mind pointing me to the threads that will show me how to go back to stock and instal.354, I am on EU 315 by the way. Will it involve a total clean out or does it install over 1.19?

i use dialer one it is the least annoying of the bunch and works 100% of the time... would love a big ass green phone connect button though.
Ray dialer meets all of the criteria set forth above. T9, contact photos, big a$$ green button, big a$$ number keys, small memory footprint, FREE!!!! Well worth trying out.
i'm using go dialer and it works quite good

Samsung's Email app - slow cursor, can't change what u typed.. bugs!

This one's somewhat hard to explain..
When typing an email in the Samsung's email app (NOT the gmail) I get these bugs:
- First of all, app itself is fast, typing is nice and fast, what u'd expect.
- When taping on the screen to change the cursor position - it takes about 1 second each time for it to actually respond and move cursor. Just an annoying lag for some reason. Happens all the time.
- Once I typed the text, say I want to change something - I tap somewhere in the text, wait for cursor to actually appear there, then I start typing/backspacing - cursor immediately jumps to the last character in the email. So I can't actually change anything I typed in - I have to backspace all the way to that place, change it, then retype everything from that point on. This problem is intermittent, but is incredibly stupid and frustrating as hell.
Anybody got these issues? Any idea what's causing these?
PS: Happened on VillainROM and on Cognition. Both with Nenph. and SpeedMod kernels.
It happens in all browsers i tried as well, with all keyboards i tried
Only happens in email app for me. Opera browser is fine..
I wonder if it has to do with the fact that email.apk is deodexed
I'm stock and use the e-mail app with Exchange. I haven't had any of the issues you described and I'm a pretty heavy e-mail user. I'm on KF3.
I have the problem too.
It hasn't mattered what ROM or Kernel combination I've run, it always plays silly buggers!
Exactly as you describe, once you begin to type in the body of the email, it becomes very difficult to edit what you've written without deleting it all (including the email signature).
The email app is the only place I have this problem, everywhere else is fine.
I'm sorry I can't give you any indication of how to remedy it, however I'll be keeping a close eye this!
I have this problem too but only with swype keyboard and only in the stock email app. I'm on the stock rom from the bell canadian gs2.
the way around it i've found.. click once on the word you want to edit, then hit the swype key and either choose from the list of words swype gives you or start typing.
its pretty damn annoying though.. i hope there is a proper fix

I don't even have swype installed, and I have this problem..
It must be something in the app itself, I think
Bump, if I may ..
Really looking for a solution to this problem =(
If you swype from the blue S directly to the right, you get a swype cursor pad up and can move the cursor much easier that way without having to delete everything u typed!
