You know, I thought the same thing. I only had the lag at one point. The only thing I had done on that fresh install was install the Swype Beta yet, then realized I now had 2 seemingly different versions of Swype (one that I didnt realize came with it, and the beta download). Not being 100% sure which was which (assumed there was a difference, because the names were shown differently), I removed them both and reinstalled the beta from the Swype beta site deal.

To be clear (since Im not completely clear on the lag other people are experiencing), anytime I clicked on a persons name (thread?) I had been texting in the stock messaging app, before it would show the texts, it would pause for maybe 5-10 seconds before loading. I have my texts limited to 200, and they didn't have anywhere near that. Also if I would go to compose a new text to someone I didn't have an ongoing conversation with, when clicking the name area, I could start typing a name, and it would take forever before it would list the possible contacts names I was starting to type (again 5-10 seconds when normally instant). This was back on 6.0 or 6.1, and after removing both Swypes and reinstalling (The beta from the Swype site) I haven't seen that happen since. Just sharing my personal experience.

Also congrats on the new title Mike!

Could also setup cron to make it do it ever hour or whenever you want. That's our next step to ensure everything stays running smoothly. If you need help setting it up, let me know. It was slightly irritating to get it working initially.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lmatth13:
I got it one time and it haven't pop up again....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Thanks. I never had much success with cron jobs because I never found a way to run them reliably (on time) without putting the CPU in wake lock. And when the CPU sleeps... they don't run until something else wakes the CPU so mine ended up late or not running for hours after they were supposed to. You may have found a way around that. If so, could you PM me... I'd be interested? But for now, I'm uploading 6.5.1 that cleans up the database when you turn the screen on. I think that's the logical time to do it anyway because it'll happen once each time the user signifies they are about to use the phone. Makes sense I think.

Swype is actually not in the ROM. Only the installer. That said...

ATTENTION LAGGERS

6.5.1 is in the nightlies. Please install if you are experiencing lag and let me know how it goes with 6.5.1.

Trying out 6.5.1 over 6.5 and I think you might have fixed it. I rebooted it a few times and so far the lag is gone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] copc:
Mikey, you are the king! Congrats on the RD, you deserve it!!!

I noticed that a new "Google Now" update hit, of course it will not update "device not compatible error" any idea if getting the update in your rom will be on the burner?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tommy24:
I spoke too soon, the lag is back.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] -viperboy-:
Did you do a full wipe including data? This has fixed lag for our users, as the contacts database repopulates.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Iceman248:
I've had this happening for awhile, maybe even on other ROMS and stock. I cannot remember, but kinda annoying.

When in car mode, sometimes after doing something, when I drag down the notifications bar, it extends down as if it were in portrait mode, and then cannot even be scrolled through. Weird. Anyone else notice this or have any idea of why and how to fix? Thanks.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Yeah, these lag fixes try to prevent database corruption so if your database is already compromised, it needs to be rebuilt. Clean install followed by restoring data is not a clean install either! Don't ever restore data when you do a clean install! Reinstall what you need from scratch. A clean install followed by restoring the data partition is exactly like sharting, taking a shower, and then slipping back into the same underpants you soiled without washing them!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
hahahahahahha!!!! Great analogy :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tommy24:
No, I flashed it over 6.5, but I was thinking about fully wiping my phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Osirus71:
The best thing to do is use the MeanRom SuperWipe .zip file before every flash of the Rom. It automatically FactoryResets >Wipes Data/Dalvik Cache's >Then Formats System > Then Formats Data Partitions........

Best Way to go!!!:good:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] -viperboy-:
I forgot to respond to this. I will send you my init.d file. It's all setup from there and we've had no issues with wake locks or not having cron execute.

Here you go...

You can see what's going on here. Cron requires sh from /bin (which we don't have), so we make the directory, symlink sh, and run cron. Cron options are verbose logging (-l 0), log to file (-L /path/to/log/), and the directory where to run the cron jobs from (-c /path/to/jobs). Here is an example cron job we have to drop caches at 4am every day...

Voice dialing has gone completely useless. The standard app (voice dialer) seems to dial a random number when I speak in to it over bt. If I say "dial 1234567890" it does it perfectly. However, if I tell it to dial a contact's name, it just seems to pick someone at random. I tried freezing voice dialer, but it didn't seem to do anything. I'm on a clean install.

Anyone else experiencing this and find a fix? I see a lot of people having this issue with JB, but not the ICS dialer.

I'm getting this error even after a full wipe and clean install of 6.5.1. It keeps coming back up right after I click OK so I can't get anything done. :(

I booted back into Recovery before completing the initial setup procedure on the phone, did the Fix Permissions as Iceman recommended, and then rebooted back into regular and all was okay again.

LOL funny analogy. :D

So when you say this though, are you only referring to stuff restored via TB? Or also all the stuff that gets restored through your Google account automatically? Cuz yeah, my Google account restores a lot of stuff after a clean install.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Osirus71:
See my fix one page back....That works as well without having to go into Recovery....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CheriePie:
I saw that, but I didn't think I could get there while I was in the middle of the initial setup procedure after a clean install, at least not without canceling the setup. Were you actually able to go there and then continue the setup?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] stanglifemike:
Only time I had that issue was when flashing the Rom while phone was on the older software/radio before I achieved s-off via DirtyRacun.

Okay I cannot be the only one with this issue. After about a week of using the Rom it always sits on "Compressing... " when I try to send an mms pic with default 1mb compression.

You wiped cache/del cache/factory reset/system then flashed MR v6.5.1?

The OP says it should be half press shutter for search.. you could try a clean install. I don't use that feature so not really sure how it should react.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ElMadre:
I just tried, and it brought up the "complete action with" menu, and Google was one of the options. I set it to default, and now search always comes up. I could have assigned other things, too, like messaging.

Quick question I don't know if it's the ROM or the manual PRL update I did, but for some reason every time I switch to roam only in mobile connection settings the phone freeze's and reboots just to only freeze again when it comes back on.

I have to quickly switch it back to sprint only then automatic to get it to stop freezing.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BigMosley:
Ok well I wiped all and freshly installed 6.5 and STILL when I quickly press the side camera shutter button under the volume rocker on the side of the phone I do not get the search button. I haven't added anything else just fresh install. What's going on here?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Chewieez:
I believe you [can't "quickly press" the camera shutter button.] (see edit below) You have to Long Press (half way) for Google Search. OR Long Press (fully down) to load the camera app.

If you are in an app that includes a Search function, you can quickly press the camera shutter button and it will bring you to that app's search page. For example, in Gmail, if you quickly press the shutter button, it loads a search of your emails. If you long press (half way) the shutter button, it still loads Google Search, and if you long press (all the way down) it will load the camera app.

____________

EDIT:

I was in correct and forgot that I have Google Now frozen on my phone. If you do a "quick half press" it should load up Google Now
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ElMadre:
Actually, I just tried it---quick half press gives me regular Google search, long half press gives me voice search. Short full press does nothing (unless screen is off, in which case it wakes it), long full press brings up camera.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BigMosley:
If I hold the camera button down for 1 second the phone vibrates then the camera comes on. If I press it for half a second nothing happens.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Chewieez:
You are pushing it all the way down, when it vibrates and loads the camera. There is a half-way down setting. When you slowly push the button, you should feel one click (halfway) and then a 2nd click when the button is fully depressed. You need to put it halfway down, to the first click, and hold it for 2 seconds.... it will load either load up Google Search or a prompt window that includes Google Search a few other apps.

Practice pushing it down. ;o) You'll feel the two clicks.

Basically 3 options for that button:

Push halfway

Push halfway and hold

Push all the way and hold

I did the same thing myself. Still reconfiguring all my apps today but so far no lag here either. But like you said, it's usually a few days to a week before it *usually* creeps back in after a wipe. I hope it stays away for both of us this time round. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gianmarco00:
I've gone there but there's no way to actually change the keyboard from there. At least not on mine.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CheriePie:
I'm going to try to use it a little bit more today, maybe *after* I finish setting all my apps back up, but some of the things I didn't like was that (a) it won't let me use Flow in any of the email address or username fields and (b) unlike Swype, all the special symbols aren't accessible from the main keyboard. I have several passwords with special symbols and don't like having to keep switching keyboards to type ^ or <.

So perhaps if I hadn't just wiped my phone and relying on username and password fields, and typing my email address, perhaps I wouldn't have been so turned off by it right off.
