I've just flashed the latest Energy ROM onto my phone from one that was about 6 months old. All is good apart from one thing - HTC Messaging.
Seems to be a common complaint that a lot of people don't like this, but I haven't found a solution.
In the old Energy ROM I was able to run a cab that disabled HTC Messaging, but that doesn't seem to work with this version.
Can it be disabled? Oddly, at the top of his thread NRGZ28 states that HTC messaging is turned off for speed???
Can anyone help please??
Can anyone help?

My understanding is that the Energy rom isn't using the HTC Messenger anymore. It uses a skinned version of something else.
pretty sure the skinned messaging client in the nrg roms can be disabled somewhere in messaging settings. My experience has been that htc sms client and the new skinned one are way too laggy to be used if you text more than once or twice a day. I have the notification bar on my hometab linked to wm messaging, and no lag and its lots better. Seems like the other sms clients dont index the messages efficiently or something. Its such a shame that so nice a phone is so weak in texting, not everybody is willing to go thru all the trial and error just to settle upon texting that is still imperfect. Big part of why wm is a dying os. People spend big bucks on a phone, they expect it to just work right outta the box, especially something so basic as texting.

Thanks for the suggesting, but I've tried and it doesn't work. As suggested below it seems that the NRG rom doesn't use the HTC messaging

Can you explain how you have linked to the wm messaging? This might do what I want.
this might help:
enable wm messenger (by disabling the HTC one), install those 3 .cabs:
3 cabs - first post
and also arcsoft mms:

soft reset
Sorry, I looked and it is the bubble text one, just with the bubbles disabled. Thats the one that I have experienced the least typing lag with out of all I've tried though. I have it linked to the notification bar by cht editor. Having it like that saves me the ram of having to use the sense messaging tab, which would cause my phone to lag and then hang whenever I sent/recieved too many texts too fast. Tried several versions of htc messaging, and they all lagged quite a bit too. It makes me mad to think all the effort n time spent just to get 'ok' texting on my phone. There should be a windows mobile version of android's handcent sms app. It has everything you could ask for as far as messaging goes, and doesnt lag or suck at all. I have had piece of crap phones that handled texting better than windows mobile. How could microsoft blow such a basic function of phones as text messaging so badly?

I did apparently, but it has some other SMS app. I like the rest of the ROM though.
Just want to know how to get at and run the default WM SMS app.

Try this.
Might need a little tweaking to change font sizes, and such, but I like it better than the WM messaging client. There's plenty of folks to help with the tweaks on the forum.
Also, Microsoft MyPhone works really well for managing text messages. It stores your messages online and allows easy syncing (very handy after new ROM flashes). It, also, allows you to archive older messages so they aren't stored on your phone, which makes ALL messaging apps run much faster.
Hope it helps...

Which one do you prefer? Or is better? Please state your reason

For me, WM6.1 SMS threading wins this one. Unfortunately, not everyone can experience WM6.1 on their phones..
Reasons:
1. It's integrated/built-in the OS (not 3rd party).
2. You can click on the name of the sender and get options.
3. Automatic truncation of long threads (saves memory and avoids longer load times)
4. Flick and scroll support for TouchFLO devices.
CONS:
1. Simple GUI (but that could be a PRO too if you're minimalistic and wants everything simple and fast).
palm sms.. its quicker then 6.1 sms threading. its better. its better..and its better
my reason is native program for sms not memory usage.
I've only used palm and pocketcm but I honestly haven't liked either one, I don't like how pocketcm is integrated with the contacts, if it was just a standalone threaded sms then maybe I would like it more, expecially since it has themes and I didn't like the palm threaded for a couple small reasons, like even if the phone is on silent it still vibrates if the message is open, you have to scroll up after you went down to find someone to text, and a couple small reasons along those lines. But Im hoping to get 6.1 some day.
i believe there is a cab for wm6.1 sms ....along side of wm6.1 sms..does it work with the touch? since it has no keyboard...only touchscreen buttons...with palm sms...it blocks what you type..

That one looks good, but like I said I want one where it is ONLY the threaded sms, no contacts or anything, and Yeah if there is a link to 6.1 threaded that would be awesome.
Why is it so hard for someone to extract the 6.1 threaded msg app?? I'll pay for it...someone just do it.

Don't think it's that easy, if not there would be one by now.
Either wait or upgrade to custom firmware 6.1 if your handset have one.
Has anybody had any problems installing the palm threaded cab? I tried it today and whilst it seemed to install ok after installing I could not find the app anywhere to use.

They extracted the Palm SMS from WM5/6. Can't see it being that much harder. Still, I don't think anyone's even tried. I've yet to hear someone give a reasonable excuse as to why it's not been done yet.

I second that. I'd chip in like $5 or $10 to get it ripped. I just want integrated threaded SMS (not Palm SMS).
I'll try and find the files. I think that they are integrated into the shell though, so it might be difficult to install them as a cab.

i noticed key lag when usin the integrated threaded sms 6...maybe thats just my tytnii

I've never posted here because I respect the hard work that goes on, by a bunch of very talented people, enough to do as the description of this board suggests and not post because I am not a 'developer or die hard techie'....
But.....
That post dude! Bang out of order.... If its that easy then please feel free to come up with your own solution, then you can trot back here and post all you want. Please dont stamp your feet and demand results with stuff like "I've yet to hear a reasonable EXCUSE" and remember that most of these guys are doing this for pocket money at the most and totally free at the least.
If I've miss-interpreted what you've said and you are a developer then accept my apologies but I know which horse my money's on!
So how do you guys like the VITO SMS-Chat anyways? I have the 6.1 threaded SMS and I wanna see if the SMS-Chat will be better (or at least flashier)
is it supposed to be this slow???
i'm restoring 500 odd texts using pim backup and once i have sent a text it seems to take upwards of 2 mins to get back to the home screen.
is it that the new messaging app just isnt supposed to be used with the Touch HD, or is it that i'm expecting too much of it to cope with 500 texts?
I personally think that htc has made htc messaging incompatible with our older chipsets, to stop developers porting sence 2.5 to older devices, maybe im wrong but im sure it works better on the HD 2

eactly spartan but our msm chipset are easly capable of running an app like htc messaging, i ment that i think htc have purposly made this app incompatible with chipsets older than snapdragon to prevent sence or part of sence being ported to older devices lol
ok, i can appreciate that snapdrage is much faster in terms of its processing power and speed.
what i dont understand is this.
am i the only one having this problem??
if i'm not, and its acknowledged that its too slow, why are chefs putting it in?
surley the whole idea behind most custom ROM's is that they are leaner and faster then the stock rom. if thats the case, why put something in thats slow to the point of being unuseable?

nope we all have the same problem lol
some chefs make roms with sence 2.5, with versions without htc messaging, but ofcourse there are always people that will moan because they have taken it out so they cant win lol the best way to keep it running smoothly it to empty ur inbox after maybe 10-15 text like i do but some people like to keep them inint lol
here is a link to XannyTech's latest rom, with sence 2.5 but with htc messaging taken owt
http://rapidshare.com/files/305257043/XT_GRIDLEO_2_1.rar
i'm one of the fussy ones i'm afraid.
i did install the Xannytech rom without the messaging installed, but i didnt like it to be honest.
is there any reason why the new sense cant be used with an older version of the messaging application which works better/faster?

hope someone does, i dont really want to go back to WM6.1 to get a "working" rom
I can confirm it's slow on the HTC HD2 .. ( I just got it this morning ).
I have a contact with > 500 messages, and it took me around 20 seconds to even load the keyboard to reply the sms.
Dunno whether it is just me ... I just stumbled upon this thread..

Well thats cheered me up must be the app then, hopefully HTC will sort it out then we can rob it for our HD's lol
im tempted to revert to a non htc messaging rom...it really is starting to bother me when trying to quick reply to txt messages
I've been experiencing this SMS issue for quite some time and I'm really getting annoyed. Not at the chef's, not at the rom's but at HTC's messaging app.
What is slowing it down so much? My old PC with 233MHz could run windows XP (just mind you) so why can't this 500MHz not run a simple task of, grab all sms's for the contact, display on screen and allow quick sms replies?
I'm sick of people reporting on ROM's that their Twitter doesn't work or god forbid the music landscape mode doesn't display the buttons properly at the bottom.
At the end of the day, this is a mobile phone with 'smart capabilities' but shouldn't we concentrate on the more important things, the simple tasks that it should be capable of without a 1GHz processor.
Saving a contact without creating an Unknown one automatically and forcing you to go through and EDIT it. (Experienced this with some ROMs)
The theory of HTC purposely doing something on purpose so that some aspects of Manilla 2.5 don't work on 'older' devices doesn't sound bad anymore.
Also, I've started a few discussions on this unfortunate messaging issue and haven't gotten anywhere with them, it's as if people use the HTC just for twitter and facebook Maybe get an iPhone since it's made for useless junk.
i dont know why you guys are so obsessed with keeping your HD's so uptodate with updates that arent even meant for the device itself.. not to cut down on any of the amazing work the chefs do around here but i think they should've stopped since manila 2.5 came out. the cooked roms for manila 2 with windows 6.1 are so great and with it you expect your basic phone functions to work like it should plus all the other aspect you use your phone in. I am a happy owner of an HD with onkolgic ROM manila 2 6.1 windows mobile and i could not imagine myself flashing another rom after this one since I dont see the device getting any better than what it is right now. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=525307
those who are experiencing troubles with their new flashed roms should really consider going a step back to the software that was meant for our device and accept it's limited capabilities though i dont see myself falling behind.. for now
sorry for the double post but i am so happy with my device i had to show you guys a picture or two lol.. anyway and forgot to say that my device it totally bug free and what more can i ask for..
Very well said inspireme87!!! So much geeks leecher who cannot stop to flash ROMs of geek cookers who are obssessed with the newest brand new version of any useless app... and forgot the essential needs : stability and reactivity!
You all talk-sh***ers should looking for this compromise instead of always flashing the newest ****...
MOD EDIT - Removed inappropriate language
It's bugged the HTC Messaging app, even on the HD2 users are experiencing a LOT of lag with many SMS stored and sometimes it doesn't send the SMS but keep them in the outgoing folder until the next softreset.
So keep the finger crossed and let's wait for a fix from HTC!

Hey every1. I found this mod in the HD forum, thought I'd share it here as it works on my TP2, and SHOULD work on ur topaz
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=608162
It will replace ur laggy sense 2.5 messaging client with the lightning fast 2.1 one.
Maedhros, Thank you for sharing this and if it works well in Topaz then that is wonderful news as that was the only issue that is holding me back from flashing sense 2.5 in my Topaz
Is there a CAB for this?
It would be really nice, if possible, to have this made into a .CAB for the people that aren't very happy, or comfortable with replacing files. Backed up or not.
Code:
there is a cab. have a search. and it does work. id find it but I'm not on my computer. using phone atm
this seems to be the only thread to address the lag in messaging with a viable solution, but like many, I don't like to downgrade anything, I guess we should wait for HTC to provide the same patch they did for the HD2...anyway, it's a shame that they take so long.
congrats anyhow for this imaginative solution

Here's the HTC hotfix for Leo based ROMs
The sms fix works
Hi
I just installed the LEO sms hotfix from HTC on my Topaz, and now there is now lag in sms.
I use Dutty R6 ROM.
There is still this annoying lag when I try to type. Especially with the space bar not working. This really messes it up.
I've been playing with the replacing it with SENSE 2.1 messaging.. and it works great - BUT:
The text indicator (That blinking thingy that says where you are with typing..) is nog appearing. Anyone know how to fix this? It's probably a messed up registry key or something, I don't know.
Or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks again.

Just install the hot fix, no need to revert your Sense messaging.
I installed the hotfix,
Hell I even tried Nat's latest rom which has the hotfix build in. It's all fun and games to load texts real quick, but typing is still a *****. Topaz is just not equipped to handle the MESSAGING client from HTC.
I get to type smooth for the first SMS, but if I reply and there is already another one there too.. things lag up. I text mega-quick and when I'm done.. it looks like this:
hellomy name ismichiel ant i wouldliketootell you
The space bar isn't working half the freaking time. I have to wait a second after EVERY word and press it firmly. Tried everything, even screen realignment. I installed the revert-patch - and bam; I can type like thunder and lightning again. But just missing the cursor. No real big deal though.. just hoping someone knows how to fix it.
you'd think HTC would have thought these devices through a little more, yeah? NO.
seeing as how i can't send a text message without a five second delay. i can't receive a text message without my phone freezing for ten. and god forbid i try and view one message while receiving another one, right?
also consider: the 1ghz processor, 16gb harddrive, 1024mb rom (on some devices), and this thing can't go five minutes without a hiccup? what the hell? D:
maybe my phone is just a screwed copy, but **** n' seriously. i just want to be able to have eye candy that operates decently. i thought that's what the HD2 was for, but it was a huge let down for me.
now, until HTC gets their crap in order and creates a better text engine, or someone ports android over to the HD2, guess what guys? we're F&%KED.
so, enlighten me, xda friendlies. are there additional text engines for the HD2? different programs to use, for faster typing and flawless send/receive features? cause until then, i'm inserting my sim card into my iPhone, as much as i hate apple itself with a burning passion, at least it texts somewhat better.
cause seriously, if i can't even stand to use my own phone, what the hell is the point?
intelligent responses only, go take your immaturities somewhere else.
Have you tried a Custom ROM?
At least try the new upgrade
If your not ready for custom ROM (like me) try the upgrade.
Worked for me, resolving apparently (its still early) all of my previous problems with the phone- like yours.
Good luck. I think this is a good machine, just has a few bugs- thats normal.

great machine. too buggy of an OS. not saying others are flawless, but i'd rather not have the only flaws in it related to the major thing i do with the phone. and i have upgraded to the rom that t-moUS release just a week ago. it's still pretty slow for me, considering my fingers move too fast for the keyboard to pick up on. i've already registry edited the lengthymessage thread, making it so the cache is always enabled, and somewhat speeding the system up a little bit when viewing the message itself. but typing is still very slow, and it's driven me up three walls, and back again.
does the text system and keyboard operate faster when SenseUI is disabled, using only the homescreen? cause if so, maybe i can deal with that, too. sense is nice, but not everything.
Try the upgraded ROM. I didnt have that much trouble but it has improved immensely! I can run CHT Again!
Yeah, try the upgrade. I am a major texter, and the new client works perfectly for me.

alright, i will check the energyrom page again and investigate. but if i go with energyrom, i would choose the second version which has the taskbar at the bottom of the screen. hopefully this, as well, has the messenger that i need.
i would just divert back to 2.10 which you can get from xmoo's stock ROM thread. 2.13 had me to the point where i wanted to throw my phone at the wall. its incredibly easy to downgrade. an although i gotta be deleting txt after every 20 from a contact.. id rather deal with that then have an extremey slow freezing 2.13 messaging app. i agree with you that its shameful that such a hardware capable phone has such a ****ty messaging app

thank you for seeing this as well, my friend. but keep in mind. i'm a texter. i like keeping my messages. i have a 516 message chain with my girlfriend. and i eventually clear them out, but not willingly. i shouldn't have to clean out my text messages to make my phone operate smoothly. so a good suggestion, but not for me. thanks =]

okay so, i tried out the energyrom with cookie's hometab, and the rom works quite well. ocassionally freezes and needs a reboot, and i wish they could fix that, but it's in progress, so i'm not gonna complain too much. i downloaded the ADDON text message program he included under the addons and fixes link, and the messaging is soo much more fluid. no delays, doesn't matter how many messages i have, and i like it. it's missing the spell check feature, which i liked alot, but i can just be more careful with my spelling, and it'll work for now.
but i have yet another problem! when i receive a mms, the message comes in suuuper small, and it's not the picture either. i would fwd a 260kb photo to myself, and it'll come in at 5kb. not cool, i need that fixed. and also, the mms messaging says the limit is 300K. why is that? i thought t-mobile upped the mms size to 1024K i need that fixed, too. so if anyone has some good intel, please, comment this thread and help us all out!

I text using the phone key pad.. I know most of you think im nuts, but give me a phone with actuall keys and I will out type and spell all of you who use a query or full keboard, i cant stand those two types, anyway stock ROM the typing was awesome I could type almost as fast as on a button phone.
Did the rom update last night, now i have to go at half speed, its terrible.
Phone buttons cant keep up, or will lock up.
If your that heavy into texting get one for the HTC Messaging disabled roms. I run Kumars premium V2.0 and I have had it on there for almost a month now with no issues and no texts deleted which means i have over 2000 on the device and it doesn't freeze

The Energy roms do not come with the HTC messenger, he added it because he wanted. I couldn't agree with you more about using the windows messenger. It works great when you get it threaded. (start>settings>systems>sms threading)
Hello all, I have a big issue with this tilt 2 and that is the sms sent and pressing "X" to go back in the inbox of sms messages, it lags for a good 10-20 and sometimes the whole screen would freeze up because of this.
So I recently bought a tilt 2 and the seller told me he flashed it to a new rom which whenever I turn the phone on, it says Energy Rom so does anyone have a solution to this sms sent lag other than deleting all text messages daily, please help!
Thank you all in advance for your time and suggestions!
Sending a TXT isn't instant... it takes a little bit to log in, transmit, and finish sending the TXT message.. that is most likely the 10-20 sec of "lag" you are experiancing... I use the Energy line of roms myself... and I feel they are the best over all roms out there... period.

And it has nothing to do with the crappy htc sms client? come on it isn't normal that you have to wait 10-20 seconds when you send a sms.

I'd have to agree. A SMS is about 1/7th of a kilobyte and a kilobyte is practically nothing. Sending a SMS doesn't cause a lag. I've been sending SMS since 1998 and WM wasn't even an option back then. It's all Microsoft and their crap OS.
I have to agree, it is the crappy htc sms client to blame, so I'm guessing noone have found a solution to this yet? Have you guys tried to hotfix from htc site?
I owned the tilt 1 and there was no lag at all in sms.
Ok, this is going to sound stupid but I'm not familiar with these types of ROM, such as Energy Rom. Is that the same as Manila 2.5? Or are they completely different?

Its hard to belive that you guys are gaetting that much lag,im running stock everything WM6.5,ive checked speeds with various people and the most i get is 5seconds of lag.
of course if i have running apps,and im not overclocked it hesitates a little..

What Exactly Do You Need Help With?
Maybe I Could Try To Help You.
I am attempting to change the interface on my tilt 2 to android or something else so the sms in threaded mode won't lag and plus im tired of the WinMo appearance. =)
Thank you for your time!
Hi I have the same problem as you and it drives me crazy. tell me if im correct: You are complaining about the fact that after you press x to close a threaded text conversation it lags getting back to the inbox. On mine everything changes back to the inbox except for the top of the screen and then it just sits there till it eventually goes bqck. Your not reffering to how long it takes for you friend to receive the text, correct? Ive tired installing the most current sms program from htc that was taking from another phone and although it looked much niicer and had some cool features it didnt work right and i had to switch back. Maybe somone reading this can suggest something. It sdriving me crazy. as far as changing from the windows look which either you mean what they call titanium which is that homescreen where you have everything in alist and you can scroll up and own through it or do you you mean what they call touch flo or sense where you move along the bottom of the screen through tabs? either way i would highly recomend spb mobile shell which will make your phone similar to android layout. It works great and is reqally easy to customize everything. or at least touch flo/sense with what they call cookies home tab which helps you customize your home screen. Let me know whcih one you have and which one you want and ill help you. I dont know how to program but i do know how to use the phone well, and customize it thanks to all the developers here who provide us with so much to do it with.
@ swaters3, yes that is exactly the probably with sms, it takes forever to go back to inbox screen and it freezes up. I'm not should what layout I have but its WinMo and the previously owner changed the rom the Energy Rom, if that matters. As for the Android layout, I heard I can do a dual boot where I can keep both WinMo and Android on the tilt 2. I was thinking, if I can boot to android that the sms will function right. As of now, I am still stuck with tilt 2 lagging sms threaded mode. Frustrating.
Do you hava a lot of sms or e-mail saved on the phone? That can cause it to bog down.
Yeah, but I originally owned the tilt 1 and had over 4,000 text message and encounter no problem sending out text messages.

i wish someone could help us with the lag, lately ive just learnt to be patient, though that is a little ridiculous. There is a sms program from htc (thecompany that makes the phone) that is much nicer and did not have the lag. I did have some other issues but maybe it will work for you. Search in xda for updated htc sms app and see if you can find it. as far as anroid goes I am trying to get mine to work properly and have still not got it to connect to sprint. Its a work in progress and not everything works so i dont think you would want to switch to it permanently. Give it a shot though its very cool and gets better every few days. As of know I think the camera is still not working but most everything else is. I would recomend spb mobile shell. watch some videos on youtube although you will be able to customize it yourself completely. Youll need to play with it to figure out how to customize it but its pretty easy just drag and drop type of stuff with anything on the phone. It looks and works like android but youll still be suing windows mobile. Its works great for me and i wouldnt be able to keep this phone if not for it. I hope that helps.
