While not knox i can chime in on what people are requesting. For example when viewing a web page on chrome and then leaving chrome to perform another task chrome has to reload the whole webpage again. Basically the ability to leave an app and upon returning you can continue right where you left off.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KnoxBNYC:
In my case, it is redraws when I get back to an app. Specifically, Dolphin HD does a refresh/reload when I go back to it after being away for even a few seconds. It didn't used to do that. I'm not certain, of course, that this is ROM related, but.....

Now that the principal has called me on the carpet about it, I'm nervously apprehensive about where the problem actually lies!! :o

Went to my friends who had a Galaxy 3 AT&T, demolished his scores. He was stock however, still, stock scores were still higher for the LTE I believe. So even if he gets a custom rom, who knows, but the hardware is almost the same. Still fun to beat them, they seemed a little sad. But I rooted and unlocked his, so he'll have so fun soon. Great work so far, amazing performance. Battery is doing not to shabby either. This phone is a beast.

I was having the same issue as you a couple months ago and even blamed this ROM for it. Turned out to be a bad camera. I took it to Sprint and when they opened my phone they noticed the solder was coming apart in the connections. I had never dropped my phone so it wasn't because of that.

Also, in the process of repairing my camera the tech noticed a wire from the antenna was also coming apart. At that point he told me he was gonna just replace my phone. That explained my signal cutting off randomly, which I again, blamed this ROM and Sprint for. Since I got my new phone both issues have been solved. Maybe there's some poorly assembled phones out there like mine...

Aren'tt the phantom gestures screen on gestures? It states the default is all on except sleep2wake...

But you're right, he didn't list the phantom sweeps there.

I don't want sleep2wake so hopefully there is a way to turn them on without activating sleep2wake.

No, it is set up so that the higher you go, the more features are active. Just put it on "3" and let it go. With the changes I've made and the testing I've done, I'm seeing only a negligible difference in battery life with sweep2wake on and I can't reproduce the touch panel lockup unless I really clean it good with glass cleaner. I got soaked Tuesday in a downpour and my pockets got soaked. Walked around for an hour with rain soaked britches and my phone in the pocket, and never a problem. So I run the sweep stuff full bore now.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] babyschmoof:
I would like it, but I believe it's based on a jellybean base. There are a few free apps to do this.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CheriePie:
Same here. I found Google Now uses too much battery and makes it hard for me to get through the day on a single battery charge so one of the first things I do after a fresh install is to disable that. So in my case, it's not the cause of my messaging/contacts lag since I've taken it out of the equation.

Yeah but they don't have text delay... Lol really frustrating me and disabled facebook sync.

I'm half tempted to get another phone, I text to much and have to close out background apps before I can text.

I tried to be clear but I wasn't trying to fix the sms/contact delay. My theory is that the Google search app with Google Now enabled or disabled was lagging because it was searching the contact database.

Sent from my EvoLTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] netengineer:
I think the same thing. I use GOSMS and it happens on it as well. Once I close out the recent apps my SMS starts working again.

I also get this strange issue. I will go to compose an email and start to address it to someone and their name does not come up. I have to close it out and go to the 'people' and then it will be blank and start loading. Once it loads my contacts are available again. It started on the 5.x version. I am 6.0 now and still does it. It's sporadic too.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
I use gosms but I haven't had that issue since around v4. I don't sync anything but Google, i delete Gmail, Facebook, and Weather from accounts which helps I guess. I also use Gemini task killer widget which keeps me with plenty of ram. Not sure what it is but I've seen reports of the delay on stock rom as well so it's not mean. I've been considering an S3 cuz of this damn lte dropout but im holding out for an update to remedy the issue. We'll see how it goes..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jediknight36:
Can someone please explain to me what SMS lag is? I want to know of it is what I'm experiencing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] imex99:
Whenever u receive a text or attempt to open whatever sms app you use, it takes forever for the app to open. Also when you type a contact in, it takes forever to give you the contact information so u can select the contact to send ur message.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jediknight36:
That's it! I've been having this very problem for several different versions! Two different phones too. Making "people" My "default" address book helped, but didn't cure it. The lag just doesn't require me to clear all the cache out to read an email, txt, or see my contacts.

I think it is a an app count issue. But even closing all the apps hasn't helped every time.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Curb71:

Wifi and 3G issue

I am having huge issues with wifi and 3G not staying on and I was hoping someone could help me. I have actually tried a couple of different roms (but prefer Meanrom) and I have the same issue. Wifi has trouble connecting to a lot of different spots. Also from time to time it won't connect and and if I go to wifi settings, it just keeps saying turning off and I have to restart my phone to get it working again. Also (and even more annoying) is that my 3G rarely works at all, it just isn't there and wont do anything until I restart. I don't know if there is something wrong with my phone or if it has something to do with the rom, but I can't hardly stand it anymore. If anyone can shed some light, I would appreciate it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ElMadre:
Definitely not the ROM, unless you have outdated radio/firmware. What's your baseband?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] babyschmoof:
I'll try to find the article. Honestly I'm not a benchmark guy, but it was eye catching.

---------- Post added at 02:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:15 AM ----------

If you read back several pages, it's when something (like Facebook syncing to contacts) can lock up the contact database. Make sure anything that syncs with the people/contact db is set to manual or once a day. That way you can limit the problem.

HTC is aware, as I read an HTC white paper that discussed this exact problem. You will see this even on stock rom. For some reason, disabling the HTC Sense Facebook app, and using the real Facebook app, or programs like haxsync, don't cause as many problems.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
I don't think it is memory related. I think it is some misbehaving app that has the contacts db open and doesn't close it. It's also possible that some app opens the contacts db, gets killed by the HTC task killer, and that leaves the lock on the contacts. We need to figure out which app is causing this as I suspect it it one app. Next time, try closing only Facebook (if it is open). I suspect all you need to do is close the one offending app that has contacts locked... if we could figure out which app is doing this, I may be able to fix it. Also, I need more logcats. After you have the delay, plug your phone into the computer and run this command:

adb logcat -d -v time > logcat.txt

If you don't have the Android SDK installed and can't do the above, try the alogcat app from Google Play.

I think the more logcats I get, I'll see a pattern. We got a few before but wasn't quite enough to see a pattern.

For what it's worth I also have Google now disabled.

I think the reason you aren't getting the lag anymore is because you are not using the Sense Launcher. It seems like everyone using a launcher other than sense are not experiencing the lag anymore.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] icethegreat:
I've had contacts with 1000+ messages and the rest from 200-600... No lag. It's certainly not the amount of messages. Mike has been able to get it down to some app or instruction causing the database to lock or unlock at a delay...

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
My first guess is that Sense is killing one of the facebook processes while that process is doing a sync, causing the lock to stay open. I'll be putting a 6.1.1 in the nightlies in a couple hours that will be my first crack at eliminating the contacts lag and it also has some other goodies: improved phantom touches (better positioning of the phantom volume buttons) plus a new mode 4 that gives you all the goodies including phantom volume... but without sweep2wake.
