Ever since that update about a month ago my phone has been typing double caps before defaulting to the lower case. For example, DOuble. It actually stopped doing this in SMS...but does this when I type in fourms. Any work around or fix? Same problems with your SF?
I have seen issues like this for as long as I have had this phone. Have you found any way to reproduce it?
I suspect it's a combination of random lag and physically learning to type faster. Hopefully future keyboards will handle this a little better.
Swyped w/ XDA App. When in doubt, mumble.
Same issue here. It is annoying.

Very annoying. I heard from a guy in another forum and he said that the problem eventually stopped
Have you played with the swype speed vs accuracy slider in settings, keyboard, swype settings?
I had the same problem after updating to DL09.
I adjusted the slider over more to accuracy and it seemed to go away.

I also have this bug. Mine will either do that or it will just skip the first letter all together, like this (Top instead of Stop.)
gots kaos on my ****s. ha ha
What keyboard do you see this bug with? I use Better Keyboard, and have never seen this problem.

I have been seeing that with swype after updating to DL09. I would recommend the solution that quarky42 suggested.

Yep worked for me too. I passed this along on DroidForums too, hope you don't mind.

Cool, swype does the job, but I don't use it all of the time. I downloaded the gingerbread keyboard from one of these forums and that works like a charm. Thanks to all who posted
Ive had similar issues on every version (including the one thats with the new froyo leak)
I love swype but the bugs are argh. the slider did fix the double caps but i cant type as fast now. My other problem is when i double tap to correct a word, it adds the corrected word either in the middle of the highlighted word or at the end of the entire message/textbox. (yes the word is fully highlighted) also i get the word suggestion popup even though i have it set to never.
I ended up switching to slideit recently
the last few versions of slideit have improved it a lot although it still doesn't "feel" as slick as swype, I cant find any glaring problems with it either.
on another note - op , my last name is schlitz :]
If you have been following Cyanogen on Twitter you will see that he is working on merging 2.3.3 into CM7. http://twitter.com/cyanogen/status/42355275310706688 Besides the NFC improvements( Which don't affect us) what do you guys think he is planning on adding?

Lol, ofcourse cyanogen is going to update cm7 to 2.3.3. Hes good at keeping current.
I just dont get why nfc doesnt apply to the slide. I dont think it needs special hardware

I am pretty sure it needs to have a certain Bluetooth frequency, which I know for sure the Nexus S has.
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
After doing some reading, nfc is different from straight bluetooth. The frequencies are WAY different. So my guess is that out bluetooth radio wasnt built to operate out of the standard 2.4-2.5Ghz frequency.

Nightly 11 is 2.3.3!!!
one major i thing i heard that 2.3.3 was supposed to fix was the random reboots, i've gotten them before on my slide, and my dad's incredible does it sometimes. no reboots since i updated *crosses fingers*
Sadly I would go with a non sense rom if I could use Flash. Maybe when flash 10.2 and Ice Cream hit... but I'll probably on a different phone by then.

Yes CM7RC2 is 2.3.3. Browser works normal for me. But GPS doesn't at all. Having issues with wifi too. It will only work after I reset the phone and even then will only work for about an hour or so before it will crap out completely.
Other then that its solid. No FCs at all. Great battery life and fast.

same with me also. wifi is alittle buggy right now. other then that it is great.
Ive been running cm7 for about 3 days now and have had no issues what so ever, Wifi issues were fixed for me by reflashing the radio, the only thing I wish it had was HTC sense.
I tried using GingerSense5122-Alphav2 and I love it... aside from the bugs including NO wifi yet... but once it is complete It will most likely be my ROM of choice..

whats gingersense?
also, does anyone elses dock tray (where the phone, contacts, and pull app tray out button) just randomly disappear?
it disappears 2-3 times a day and the only way its back it if i turn the phone off.

I noticed if you drag from the bottom of the screen up, it will hide/unhide it.
Might be a noob issue, but every time I've flashed CM7, it won't boot. Just stays there on the Cyanogen boot screen forever. I clear my cache and all that before I install the ROM, but I have yet to get it to load CM7 RC2. I used CM6 just fine but this refuses to load. Any suggestions?

I don't know. To my knowledge I've never flashed a new radio. I did get CM7 to work last night however. I had to do a factory reset in addition to clearing the caches, and that made it boot correctly.
went from leaked gingerbread back to syndicate 1.1.0 and now the autorotate doesn't work, only when i open the keyboard. I did all the fixes, it still doesn't work, any idea how to fix it. I've had 3 epics and never had the problem of it not rotating, always slow rotating or something like that, but never no rotating.
Did autorotate get turned off in the Launcher Pro settings?

Try this
Did you calibrate the accelerometer first? That might fix it. Mine get kinda wonky after reflashing and especially after using Odin.
i did the calib_yamaha, I calibrated the sensor, nothing did anything, I flashed the gb leak again and it works fine, I flash back to sf 1.1.0 and it doesn't work, so now I'm stuck on the gb leak which is a problem because the phone barely works and keeps dropping calls so I really need to get back to froyo.

Are you referring to rotating the home screen, or any and all apps? I might be mistaken, but I don't think TouchWiz rotates the home screen, at least not without sliding out the keyboard...
Also, I would recommend upgrading to SRF 1.2, it's even better than 1.1

Well, because 1.2 *is* different than 1.1 - hence the change in version numbers...
Why would you expect the two to be exactly the same? Kind of a silly question
A better question would be, "WHAT is different between the two, that would cause the auto rotate problem in 1.1?"
I don't know that answer, though... I think it may have been tied to the fully loaded version, because I remember experiencing it only once - when I briefly tried fully loaded, before going back to standard

Ok let me clarify my post. Running SR v1.1.1, rotate worked fine. Flashed Revoltion rom, didn't like it, few things didn't work like autorotate.
So I flashed another rom which fixed it, chose SR 1.2 to give it a try. If I flashed v1.1.1 that may have worked also.
so can we get back to the issue, i've tried 1.1.1 and the autorotate doesn't work. it appears to be a froyo issue as it worked fine for months and months and now only gingerbread roms will rotate. could that be because i'm using eh17 modem? i wouldn't think so.

Well, one or many of the changes between 1.1 and 1.2 might have affected rotation as a side effect - whatever caused the glitch in 1.1 must have been changed for a completely unrelated reason, and the glitch disappeared...
I think, from what you've reported, that it had something to do with the extras in the fully loaded version - that used a hacked TW, right? 1.2 doesn't have a fully loaded package that I'm aware of... But try the standard version, or just use the most recent version since it *is* better

It does nut appear to be a froyo issue, because 1.2 is froyo without the issue... In fact, so far the only froyo that appears to have this issue is the fully loaded version of 1.1... Several examples of froyo without the issue vs one with the issue would indicate that froyo is not the problem at all...
Unless I missed the part where you duplicated the issue on several other froyo roms - all I've seen mentioned is SRF 1.1 fully loaded... Have you seen the problem on 1.1 standard edition?
But you are correct about the modem having nothing to do with it
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
well you could be right, but i've been using the 1.1 for months and months, longer than any other rom and havent had a problem, and I've run many other roms, never had a problem. only time i've ever seen something like this is since running gingerbread leaks, now they work and the old one doesn't, I've flashed that same rom probably 10 times, never had a problem, gone from bonsai to that one and back again, never a problem so I would doubt the rom would have anything to do with it. I'll try the 1.2 if I can get it downloaded. last night the page wasn't coming up.

Perhaps a full odin back to stock froyo, then reinstall everything from there...
I'm wondering if gingerbread updated something that froyo relied on for sensor data (this is a long shot, falling under the category of "I don't see how they're related, but why not?")
Otherwise, it *almost* sounds like a hardware issue - except that you said it works fine on gingerbread... well, unless GB is using a different sensor reading...

i've only run gb for like 2 weeks, was working fine on froyo, can't understand it. I did download srf 1.2 last night as the site would come up now. so i might play with that this weekend, although the GB is working now and making phone calls without dropping so aside from random reboots its working. kinda makes it hard to sell the thing eventually though if it won't rotate.
well I put on the srf 1.2, autorotate works fine, im perplexed as to why that is since autorotate worked fine for the 6+ months that I ran it and i've never had autorotate stop working on any of the 3 epics i've had and any of the roms. but at least its working now and i have a stable phone.
So tried to add this to the alpha 5 topic, but I do not have 10 posts yet.
I flashed from MIKG 3.0 to alpha 5 on Friday with no issues. I ran the fix for the google calendar and was happy with the overall setup. I added the COD tweaks and was impressed with the speed/smoothness of the system. Camera worked out of the box and didn't have any real issues until tonight.
Phone randomly restarted, no big deal. but then I noticed that i had degraded signal. did the *18 call with no change. I had to send a few texts and they all hung and finally failed. restarted phone and same issue occurred.
With the ROM still being a WIP I was not upset, it just isnt a daily driver yet, close though.
next issue was when i restored from nandroid. I hung at the boot screen for ever. Pulled battery and did full wipe and tried again to no avail. I was getting worried at this point. I did have an earlier nan backup of MIKG and that one worked.
Oh and much to my kids dismay angry birds would not load.
Not really looking for any help just trying to get my posts in.
Thanks!

nice info ive been trying to find out how the ics roms are going cuz i havent had time to flash myself. but in regards to your nandroid restore not working. what recovery are you using? (you should use amon-ra 2.3 if you aren't already) and also the mikg restores take a while to load because sense 3.0 is huge, if it doesn't load in about 2-3 minutes then just pull the battery and start it up (don't wipe) and it should boot right up in a reasonable time. it happens occasionally. and welcome to xda saw you had one post so i figured i would welcome you
I have flashed multiple versions of MIKG all wit CWM, it was up in the 7-10 min boot loop time. the kick stand was getting warm. I started with the batt at 90% and when I was finally back up it was at 20%.
I as well can't post. I came from cm7. I used from manager to back up cm7 then install alpha5. Worked fine for me. Using cwm instead of ra though. Not sure if that makes any difference.

Yeah there's something always wrong with CWM I have used amon-ra since February and have had no problems with it. Also as a sidenote with amon my mikg back up with 300mb of apps took all of 5 minutes to back up and like 8% battery. If your backup drained 70% of your battery there is definately something wrong haha

Glad you posted this here.
I don't have enough posts either. I like the ROM but i had a few random reboots too. I flashed from Team Nocturnal stock RLS.5. I also use CWM for Nandroid. I was getting around in ICS well but had a few hangups. Calandar was the biggest issue, but I think I remember that being mentioned, so no biggie. The only major issue I cared about and I don't know if this has been any one else's problem, but my benchmark was significantly lower on this ROM. 805 on quadrant. Just wanted to post if anyone is reading. That would explain why it was a little jerky.
almost there!! lol
ics was really fun to play with. have u tried swapping to nova launcher? it seemed to free the rom up a bit and make it much more tolerable. I do like trebuchet because it seems to look better imo.
my gps seemed to work fine after i flashed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15760767&postcount=30 it did cut out eventually but that was after a flash to a 3.0 rom ( not to do the gps fix btw) and nandroiding back sooooo i dunno could have been something got fubared in there
there was a calendar fix somewhere in the 400 page post. you had to flash a specific gapps and calendar fix.
Flashed Decks a5 the day it was released. Loved it. I'm still running CWM and haven't had any issues. I did install the GPS drivers listed in a GPS fix post and use Waze for navigation. Quick lock and solid. Gmail sync and calendar sync worked as well, using Jorte as my calendar. I used the file titled ICSGoogleApps12-16. My only issues were the jerky video and most games I played wouldn't load.
Amazing work, I tried all the other ICS rom's and I had less issues and smoother operations with Deck's.
Great talent. I have no complaints cause I know it is all a work on progress. I can't believe my old EVO is running ICS before my buddy who just got a new phone...... priceless! !!!!!

Since my short time of owning a rooted HTC Panache (myTouch 4G), I have been having intermittent touch screen sensitivity problems, most of which are found either when typing on a keyboard or when unlocking the phone.
I'm not entirely sure about when the problem started, but I think it was when I first flashed an ICS rom (Zips Creamed Glacier 3.11). From that flash onward, every single rom I install will have keyboard and lock screen sensitivity problems, including Gingerbread and ICS roms.
The only exception that I seem to have noticed in this problem, are on Sense roms, specifically SmartBeat Venomous 2.0 (Sense 4.0A). I haven't seen the insensitivity problem at all on the few days that I used that rom. This problem doesn't seem to show up on stock Gingerbread (Sense 2.1) as well, although I can't confirm that as I can't stand staying on stock firmware too long.
Would anyone happen to know why this problem shows up all roms that I have installed following my installation of an ICS rom?(possibly,but not sure if Sense roms could be ruled out as well.)
Thanks for the help everyone.
EDIT: I also wanted to mention that my physical screen also periodically clicks when I put pressure on it, like it's falling into place from (possibly) being elevated from the digitizer. Maybe just a bit of added info to take into consideration.
Doesn't anyone know what could possibly be the problem with my phone?

it was a design flaw. The HTC Sensation had the same problem. It involved something with grounding. Here's the Thread with the issue you described. Apparently Stock Sense(MySense) does not have this issue
