So I flashed my phone to the HyperDragon III ROM a few months ago. Everything works smoothly and I had no problems at all. Only small issue was the keyboard lag and that issue was addressed in a separate post.
After using the Keyboard Lag fix, my phone does not fully load. I get to the splash screen and everything and then the Start Bar loads as well as the bottom Calender and Contacts menu. The screen will display my background and it will say "Tap Here to launch TouchFlo". I tap there and nothing happens.
I've been patient and I let it sit there and nothing happens. I can get to my text messages but it runs unusually sluggish and will display an overview of all messages but when I try to open a specific message, it freezes up.
This is actually the second time this has happened. The first time I removed the Keyboard Lag CAB but the issue continued. I left the phone alone and reset it a few times and miraculously it started working fine.
I have since removed the Keyboard Lag CAB completely yet it has still happened. Anybody else have the same problem or have a solution? Any help would be great.
Never flashed HDIII rom's so I have no idea why you are having that problem. Have you already post this issue on the rom's threat?

Not on the HDIII thread. I did originally post my problem on the Keyboard Lag thread. 10 minutes after posting the first time my phone went back to normal so I went back and edited the post.
So try it on the HDIII threat. That's the best where you can get help related with that rom.
Also, maybe some other user had already that problem and have some solution or is waiting for some. Ah, before post the question, that some time to read the full threat... your answer can be already there.
Thanks. I just figured I would post. I've been reading the thread for a while now. Its over 900 pages so I thought I would ask first
You can also try to do a search on that threat http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3102963&nojs=1#goto_threadsearch
Happy New Year
So my phone just started working again. After about an hour or so of resetting and stuff it displayed Lauching TouchFlo and its normal again. I'm just afraid to ever turn it off again.
did anyone solve this problem?! cause mine just randomly stopped launching touchlo and I dont know how to get out of it?!
Closing thread
Please post issues with HyperDragon rom in the HyperDragon thread, instead of opening new ones.
Peace,

I occasionally get into a mode where the hardware keyboard is non-responsive. Nothing on it works. I'm not sure if this is a defect on my particular phone, or if I've accidentally enabled some "feature" that causes the keyboard to be locked out. A soft reset will fix the issue, but that can be very annoying...
Has anyone else seen this?

I have experienced this before, where the backlight wont even activate from pressing a button, and the keyboard certainly isnt typing anything on the screen either. Although usually i can fix this by sliding the keyboard back in, and then out again.... annoying yes, but its only happened twice in the month i have had my ATT Fuze, and i havent had to reboot like you mentioned.
When running my stock AT&T rom, I had this happen almost daily. Now that I flashed a new rom, I have yet to experience it again. I had to turn off/on my device in order for it to go away before.
Same problem here.
Sliding in and out does not work any more.
Resetting doesn't work anymore either...
Time to flash to original Roms?
Keyboard lock up
This happens to me too. I noticed that it happens more frequently when I set my wifi to best performance, and then try to type something. Keyboard becomes completely unresponsive. I usually have to soft reset.
I had the problem with stock ATT rom, NATF rom, and now with RRE 4.5SE Rom. I have tried the T9 dissabler, but it also did not work. My Fuze is only a few days old...
I notice this seems to be a common problem... No one seems to have answered this in any of the posts I've read. Is there a cab or patch or reg tweak that some one has come up with to deal with this? Can some one look into this???
Thanks so much in advance!
Mitch
*Edit*
Forgot to mention that this my second Fuze, sent the other one back because it was doing the same thing...
same unsolved issue here (wants me to crack my fuze)
Ive noticed this too... but what I do to correct the problem is hit the window key. It then activates the start menu. Then press it again to exit the start menu and the keyboard magiclly works again. At least for me anyway.
I have this problem occasionally, maybe twice with the ATT stock ROM, an once with the RRE 4.5SE ROM, mine rights itself after the application is closed and re-opened after a minute or so, so Im not that bothered, it is annoying though.
Nice, I'll try that..
Try the NATF ROM
Since I've switched over to the NATF ROM I haven't had a single problem with the keyboard.
tried NAFT v4 already with the same hq keyboard lock/die/shut down issue

Same issue here, happened with both stock rom and NATF 4.1
It goes away after doing some random things like others have mentioned, but still annoying.
My keyboard was working fine all this while until about 2 weeks ago it starts to act up. When I press the spacebar, sometimes it will create double spaces (instead of the usual one), and sometimes, it wouldn't work at all (meaning no space is created).
Does anyone else have this problem?
And just wondering, I have flashed my TP to ROMeOS, so if I were to claim warranty, does that mean I'll have to re-flash my TP back to the original firmware?
Bump - I really need some help.
Bump again! Mine is doing this at the moment. Stock ROM. UK Vodafone.
As far as going back to get it fixed by someone, yes, you would have to go back to stock SPL and stock ROM. It sounds like a pretty strange problem. The only thing I could think of is that you have some particles stuck underneath the space key since it's acting s erratically.
same problem here. I don't think that it is particles under the keyboard as that would not explain the double spacing issue.
I only noticed it on the R2A rom, don't remember it being there on the R1 so prob a rom issue.
I have this problem too
Figured I'd give this a good Ole Bump, because it seems that, although not widespread, it's still an issue. I'm running the Latest 6.5 ROMeOS on my Fuze and am having the SAME problems mentioned in the first post. I remember reading in Da_G's thread that there was something corrected in his ROM by using a custom xT9 dictionary? Anyone have any input? I'm (almost) positive this is not hardware related. It seems to be tied to the OS. Thanks in advance.
me too having the problem as well, i've it for more than 1.5 months i think, and no one having this in the earlier day which no one can help me out with it, but this few days i think i manage to solve this problem already, which i think it actually is a hardware issue, i used to use my right thumb to press spacebar and the problem occur, but since few days ago i try changing it to use my left thumb to press spacebar, who knows, the problem did not come to me since then... maybe you can try this, if not, i think you might gonna sent it back for warranty... hopes this helps...
I'm almost positive it has something to do with xT9. I just used a cab from my tilt days to disable xT9, and its happening FAR less than it was. But its still happening lol. Even with the regular stock non-finger-friendly keyboard set as the SIP. Back to the drawing board.
Well, I'm not sure if everyone else has read and figured out the problem, but it is now known what causes the spacing issue.
Apparently the newest builds have changes to the compime.dll file. These changes are what is causing the spacing problems, and (so far) can only be resolved by using the compime.dll from build 21731 or earlier. So how do we fix this
I know that Da_G has a package in his kitchen to change the dll back to an earlier one, but for the people that are using already cooked roms, what do we do?

If that's the problem, then this post might help you.
EDIT: But someone noted this problem with their stock ROM, which suggests a hardware issue, not a ROM problem.
I thought I'd post this since clearly I'm not the only one who suffers from this problem. After 6 months of living with this problem, I've decided to flash back to stock SPL and stock ROM and sent it to SiS for repair. They replaced the keyboard, and in just 2 days, I got my phone back (talk about a speedy repair!).
I don't know about you guys, but I'm almost positive mine is a hardware problem. I'm now using a WM6.5 TF3D2 ROM by shep211 and the keyboard seems to be working perfectly.
-accidentally double posted-
i got the same problem.
spacebar sometime can press sometime cant.
i think is hardware problem
anyone can guild me how to open n repair it?
my touch pro is not under sis. too bad.
Mine's been doing the same thing recently. I'm *hoping* this is an os issue, but I'm using stock original bloat free rom.
My has also been acting up tho (goofiness with Opera, rare and seemingly random shut offs and freezing) so I was hoping that a flash to a cooked rom would fix it.
I'm planning on doing it this weekend, if I get around to it I'll post here on my results.
I had the same problem. Went to the AT&T store and got a new phone
I too have been having this problem. I have been using NRG's roms for the past month (no blame on them) and the problem started to occur. Whenever I texted i would hardly ever get any spaces and it would double space when i did get it to work. I found that if i went slower and pressed harder it would work fine, however this is not a good solution. So i figured it was a hardware problem so i put everything back to default for ATT warranty purposes.
This is where it gets weird, the dumb thing starts to work again. I thought it was pure hardware failure because i had to press harder, but now that problem was gone.
So now I am running stock ATT rom but it is starting to double space ALOT. However this only occurs in the text message box. If i open word and type it is flawless. So is there a glitch in the text messaging program?
same problem here... happens when texting in my browser, in forums, in sms msging, all over...
I have a Samsung Omnia with a WM 6.5 build, and I noticed a similar problem, regardless of which onscreen keyboard I use. Basically whenever I type a dot (.) or press the spacebar, the previous letter would get selected (underlined) for a second, before the caret returns to the intended position. Typing the spacebar in a browser would indeed produce 2 spaces.
I assume it's related to the input/dictionary suggest feature, yet dis-/enabling this feature in the settings doesn't fix the problem. My guess is that the dictionary somehow thinks that a single spacebar press is a correct word, which is automatically expanded to the full word (1 space), followed by another space to put the following word.
This issue surfaced at some point (the rom initially worked fine after a hardreset).
same issue on my phone
The MR2 update is out on the PCD site. Looked in some of the forums and nobody has mentioned it. Anyone install yet? I'm still downloading. Hoping for an updated Sense at least. PCD site only mentions a general update for VZNavigator, Contact Cards and Time Stamp.
Edit: I've downloaded and run the update and now I'm stuck at the starting HTC screen (now green letters on white) with the version numbers in red in bottom left. I've re-booted and sticks at the same place.
I'm having the same problem. I've heard you can go back to the MR1 update. Also, sounds like people who unlocked their phones are the ones having the issue. Anybody else have any info?

Quick setup of common email account types and an option to set up an email account manually.
However there is a problem with the update. You will need to relock it apparently to load it. Here is what they found:

I also cannot boot the mr2 update. However, I dumped the rom, and rebuilt it using the boot.rgu from the MR1 update, and also removing the OEM_FLASHDRV_1.DLL module from the XIP. After flashing it did boot correctly.
I'm going to now try a straight dump and rebuild to see if it is just something in their updater thats causing the issue.
Yep, It is the boot.rgu and the OEM_FLASHDRV_1.DLL that's causing the problem!"
It is Sense 2.5, as I mentioned back in March.
One thing I noticed, is that my customized taskbar doesn't work correctly on this ROM. Some icons remain stock while others change. Some DLL's have changed names I guess.
They also mentioned that the task manager is gone, does that mean that I cant choose what to close and when to close it now?
p-
I got it last night but haven't had a chance to check it out.
You were right Brent!
I forgot about loosing the HTC taskbar. Looking forward to finally be able to add customs tabs now that I have HTC sense 2.5.
I'm having a problem getting my phone re-locked. I've gone back to the stock ROM, but when I try to run the RhodiumW_SPLRelocker_063.exe nothing happens. Any suggestions or can anyone point me to a thread that can help? Thanks!
UPDATE Sorry I'm a dufus, forgot to run it As Admin

I thought you were the one that said we would get it cause you saw at Verizon or something? If not nevermind lol.
Thanks I will check out that task manager.
One more thing, is their a cab to add appointments to home tab? I know there is cookie (which I did check out) but I really just want appointments without all the extra stuff. Thanks!

I really don't know. I am not upgrading until I find a solution to getting a programs tab that actually works.
I had mentioned in a comment over at WMExperts that the taskmanager is gone... I now realize that you have to go into the All Programs to launch it, which is a drag. I miss the one on the top-right built in to the title bar
I added taskmanager to the quick links so it'll do but I'd really prefer the old one. I also miss the appointments on the homescreen. Boot time is even longer, but flipping through emails, photos and appointments in much snappier. I really enjoy the HTC Peep Twitter tab. The settings tab makeover is well appreciated too.
Overall, I really like this update though
I noticed some slow down with peep so I took it off. It was cool to have it right there but I will stick with the awesome moTweets. Too bad you couldn't add that to a tab.
edit: I do like that it locks now when I hit standby button. No more calling people by accidently (or less frequently).
htc task manager can be added so that the top right arrow is there again. It is attached to the following thread a few times. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=125428
Hey guys Mr. X over at PPCGeeks went through and fixed the MR2 VZW Update...go to PPCGeeks website (or MightyROM website) to download it..
Did they put the good soft keyboard with the 'control' key back in this rom?
I installed MR2 yesterday and everything went fine. Until it came to running for a few hours. When the phone first boots up, everything's great, but after about an hour, it just slows to a crawl. None of the animations are smooth, just recently it took five minutes to flip from one text message to another. But, that hasn't really been so bad as about every other time I go to turn the screen back on, it just doesn't turn on and the only thing I can do is pull the battery.
Yeah, the quick links are nice, the new settings page is great and the email/text message pages flip in the same direction (seriously, who missed that in MR1?) but I went from having a nice, reliable, snappy phone, to a brick of **** that I can hardly stand to use.
I'm going back to MR1.
I was running a custom ROM on Verizon TP2. I first tried to installed the MR2 ROM and as others have said it hung on bootup. I held vol down while pressing reset and the bootloader screen will come up and if you are connected to the PC will go in to USB mode. I ran Task29 which uploaded fine but the TP2 still hung on bootup. I then went to the bootloader screen again and ran the re-lock utility over at PPCGeeks. Tried to book and still hung. Went in to bootloader again and this time reran the MR2 installed which worked and finally it boot all the way up. I still did a clear memory 1234 and everything again booted up with no problems.
I am concerned about the guy above who reported that it would slow to a crawl but many that's a result of not running Task29? Hard to imagine such a fundamental problem. I mean, I don't doubt that it happened but I can't imagine that it will happen on all installs. I just installed mine a few hours ago so I guess I'll know by tomorrow.
Good luck!!

This is/was a "clean" phone. never unlocked, no custom roms, just straight from Verizon to me to MR2 so running task29 doesn't seem necessary.
shrug. when I get some free time next year, I'll call vzw and ask them wtf happened.
First off, there are other threads on this topic but none of them seem to have an answer, and if you find an answer please post a link instead of telling me to search more.
Sometimes the phone randomly becomes unresponsive, its not with any certain app or anything, it just randomly happens. Usually pressing the sleep button and turning it off and on fixes it. It started in Android Revolution a while ago, stopped, and then came back a month later, I wiped everything and installed MIUI hoping this would solve my problem, well it didn't.
current setup
CWM 3.0.2.6
MIUI 1.7.8v1

Like you stated there are other threads on this. Please use them instead of opening a new one. There are many things that can lead to lag. I would look for others on the same rom as you and compare.

I'm having a quite annoying and weird issue.
I imagine it'll be good to know that I use Chrome.
Every time I reply to a topic (Now that I think of it, it may not be every time, but say at least 90% of the time, probably more), I get the error message below. This does not seem to happen when I post new threads.
This forum requires that you wait 20 seconds between posts. Please try again in 19 seconds.
Thing is, it does post my post perfectly fine. It's as if it tries to do it twice, and the second one gets denied because, well, the first one went through and is posted. I thought it was just a small hickup on my end at first, but its been doing this for days now.
Edit: Another, probably related, issue. When I edit posts it gets stuck with the "loading" cursor. Chrome runs fine other than XDA, and nothing crashes. It just loads until infinity. If I just hit back, or navigate back to the same place I was posting, my post is there. It's as if the redirect just fails.
The reason I am posting this here, despite it most likely being a Chrome-issue, is that I only experience issues on XDA. Nowhere else do I have problems at all.
Any ideas?
