Hi,
Having owned a Qtek 2020/8080 and a 9090, I thought I'd give a windows mobile handset a fourth try by buying the HTC touch pro.
These are my experiences so far:
- the first 2 days I had a hard time not accidentally hang up during phonecalls
- Slow responses lead to usability hell - when a tap on a button does not seem to register, a second tap triggers a second action.
- GPS coordinates do not seem to be attached to pictures' exifdata, while it is enabled using Kaisertweak.
With the previous phone I had (Motorola RZR) I could start a new phonecall within 2 seconds. With my htc touch pro it takes 2 seconds to get to the contacts screen.
My second choice would be an iPhone. Usabilitywise that might have been a good idea, but I really require a hardware keyboard like the htc touch pro has.
Are there any speed-specific tweaks available that could speed up the userinterface? Are there themes that consume less cpu/mem?
(I do love this device because of the amount of features it packs. I'm in some kind of love-hate relationship with my phone, currently ;-)

No slowness problems here - but I did make use of the speed tweaks in the 'Raphael Tweaks' thread from the off, so I can only advise doing the same.

Same here, tweaks do make a difference.
Hrm,
no problems here ROM info in sig and zero tweaks applied.
Once you apply the tweaks, have turned it on and gone through the various touch flo pages once (seemingly to get things cached) then the interface is fast.

I have removed the touchflo application from the today screen, as that was giving me the most headaches. Touching the screen didn't always register, but setting the sensitivity higher helped. I'll give that a try after I have applied the speed tweaks.
Thanks for the replies.
I found that just putting the stylus on the screen doesnt make the device react, but once a tiny bit of pressure is used it reacts flawlessly.

It's a resistive touch screen, that's how they work. They require at least a modicum of pressure to register a touch/press.

Some have regretted that the Touch Pro doesn't have a capacitive screen because of this, but I've noted they have the opposite problem, in that screen presses can register too easily. At least with a resistive screen it is possible to adjust the required pressure.

One would assume the same applies for capacitive touch screens too.
Capacitive screens work on measuring the distortion of magnetic fields, the distortion threshold before a "touch" is registered could be adjusted.

I'm sure that's the case. I was commenting on what can be done with a resistive screen rather than comparing unfavourably with a capacitive screen.
No speed issues here, even without tweaks.
I can agree that screen sensitivity is too low even if set up to high but I taking my time...: )

Hi guys, I'll try to describe this problem as best I can. I've tried to take a video of this but it doesn't quite work.
Basically about 80% of the screen occasionally starts flickering. It could be a screen refresh issue or a backlight issue or something physically wrong with the screen. The top 20% is absolutely fine!
I've tried flashing different ROMs, Kernels, Radios, used different governors, set force GPU render and set Disable HW overlays.
None of these things work, whilst some appear to fix the problem its over ever temporary. Sometimes increasing the brightness fixes it but not every time.
The flicker has a slight yellowish colour to it too.
I've disassembled the phone and checked the screen connector ribbon etc and all seemed fine.
Has anyone heard or experienced this themselves? Please help!!!
My last option is to do a factory reset and start all over again. Or buy a new screen for £35...
Thanks
Can no one help meh???
Hi everybody,
bought my AM7 today and have been very happy with it so far. However, there`s a graphic glitch going on while playing games (namely Dead Trigger 2 and Castle Clash), sometimes even in the UI (changing home screens, browser, e. The thing is, that the lower (right in the landscape mode with Huawei logo on the right) half of the screen "flashes" a grainy images, as on an untuned TV channel. I tried to take a screenshot but as long as the flashes occur randomly and last only for like a 0,1s, it`s quite impossible.
I really can`t tell whether this is an hardware and/or software issue. Is this a warranty issue? Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
M.
Is there an app/code/apk that can disable touch input in a specific area of the screen on my unrooted Huawei Y6 Pro? I would really like an answer as soon as possible.
Also, if it helps, this is a physical error in the screen and it phantom touches in one particular area very time, so please don't suggest some sort of software fix. What I'm actually looking for is to someone suggest an app like Tasker to set a little dead zone where the phantom touch is.
So, in a nutshell, I want to disable a part of my touchscreen, not using rooted methods, so that every time I touch that area on my phone it does not respond and doesn't receive it as a touch.
Thanks for the help.

Hey bro,
You got something about your problem!!
Install partial screen app from playstore
I find it over sensitive in screen rotation, it is very annoying making wrong typing with a very little tilt in many applications, the worst is making calls. Any solution? Many tks
