Speed Up Your Keyboard (Fixes Lag On Hardware Keyboard)
Tired of your keyboard givinga ous entencesl iket his? Well here's the cure. This cab is a simple registry edit which will speed up the typing on your hardware keyboard.

Credit goes to JohnJonsten for the fix

Here is the registry entry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd

"InitialDelay"=dword: dec 775

"RepeatRate"=dword: dec 23

Other Fixes (By Request):

1) Use the Disable xt9 cab

2) Set suggested words to a lower number (personally I set it to 0)

3) Disable auto-correction of words.

Is this any different from the update htc put out? Or can we install this on top of that? Would it help?

Re: Speed Up Your Keyboard (Fixes Lag On Hardware Keyboard)
 

thanks I'll try this out on the touch pro and report back later on today.

Re: Speed Up Your Keyboard (Fixes Lag On Hardware Keyboard)

You must add code wrap to outside links. I added it for you this time. You have enough posts to know that the code wrap is needed bud. Please remember in the future.

I have been running the registry all day and it seems to be a little bit faster now....even though the touch pro already has a fast response....anyways i think ill mess around with the numbers and see what i like best...

Most likely, I think this was more useful for the older phones ex.mogul, kaiser etc...

I know when I had my mogul I would have loved this tweak as it was slow.........

Re: Speed Up Your Keyboard (Fixes Lag On Hardware Keyboard)
 

This tweak is amazing for the mogul! I just tried typing a little to check if it works and I was amazed. I'm a pretty fast typer and the phone was only 1 letter behind what I typed in at the most. Most of the time it was dead on what I was typing in. Just if anyone was curius I installed on the device. I'll post back later tonight to let you know how its working.

installed this earlier and been using it alot in the last hour and the keyboard is flawless now...thanks a bunch!

Re: Speed Up Your Keyboard (Fixes Lag On Hardware Keyboard)
 

dumb question. if I do this registry change

do I need to also install the cab?

Re: Speed Up Your Keyboard (Fixes Lag On Hardware Keyboard)
 

yes just install the cab...... all the registry string was showing is what he changed and cabbed up for easy install.... if someone wanted to they could do it manually with a registry editor

Great post Scott i have been wondering if there is anything out there this. I will give it a try and post back.

Re: Speed Up Your Keyboard (Fixes Lag On Hardware Keyboard)
 

hey scott great add man. my mogul is typing fast as ever.. most of the time im 2 or 3 words ahead of what im typing. now im not.. when i first started my phone after soft reset and went to texts messages it laged at first but after the 3rd word it was on the money in what i was typing. again great add man thanks.

Re: Speed Up Your Keyboard (Fixes Lag On Hardware Keyboard)
 

yea I tried it, on my tp still same shizzzooo.. I was always a touch screen keyboard person, then i got addicted to the keyboard(tease).. Keyboard was working fine, then the lag just got worse and worse.. I hope on the tp2, that it works out better.. I feel u pay for TP, an you still end up with a DIAMOND lol..

Re: Speed Up Your Keyboard (Fixes Lag On Hardware Keyboard)
 

well after a while of use that is normal especially if you have a lot of text messages and emails stored.

Re: Speed Up Your Keyboard (Fixes Lag On Hardware Keyboard)
 

i cleared all text an emails an still was a lagger lol...

Re: Speed Up Your Keyboard (Fixes Lag On Hardware Keyboard)
 

did you try to soft reset after clearing them for it to recalculate everything? also it may sound crazy but this effects speed too.... take your sd card out and dreag all the contents you want ot the the desktop pc. than format the card to a fresh FAT32 format and addd the apps and place back in your phone and you shuld notice a differnece...... just be sure not to restore anytthing lie program files folder or windows folder since those were made for a previous rom the registry and such on the casrd can mess with the device sloewing it down since it cant find what it is looking for..... some say to do this after every major rom change like cook wise.... i do it when i notice it and hasnt let me down thus far

Re: Speed Up Your Keyboard (Fixes Lag On Hardware Keyboard)
 

Interesting note .. i took the card out an the battery.. Put it all back together .. Keyboard working haha aint this some shizzo..
