i have pretty bad lag when i dial phone numbers, also when i hit call and end call. my phone is rooted and has fresh 1.1, however, it was doing this before. Just want to know if anyone else has this, or has noticed it, Thanks
 
Yes I experienced it too. I assume it has something to do with the Sense UI overlay of the dialer. I noticed this lag on other devices which HTC created custom dialers for as well. The dialer on the Droid is rock solid.
 
any chance an fix is in the makes for this?

Wall is a stud, just hope him and the cats pull it back together tomorrow
 
To answer your question though, yeah I have lag on my dialer as well. I've even scoured the store for another customer dialer to no avail.
 
oh yes. lag opening the dialer and lag dialing each number. even when i hit the call button after I dial the number. This happens on all htc phones. I had the touch pro, diamond and touch pro 2 and all of them did the exact same thing. This is what happens when you have a overlay over the original dialer for android. Just like touchflo for Windows Mobile
 
If you turn off sense ui, the dialer still looks the same but acts as it should. :eek:

Sense UI is terrible. Like a Hot chick with no common sense. Sure, it looks good, but damn it sure does make things difficult.

So how do you turn off Sense UI?
 
I noticed that if I clear my call history it helps a lot. I'm also wondering if it has something to do with the facebook contact syncing?
 
I have this bad as well. Takes for ever for me to call comeone.. Oh and when Im in a hurry its even longer. I always touch the button to call someone and Ill think it didnt work. So I will press it again and hang up my call.. ehhh its a pain in the a$*
 
ask me how many times I have dialed the wrong person by mistake. the lag really becomes an issue sometimes
 
I use voice dialer or go thru my people list, so I have never really noticed. Just tried dialing a few numbers and had no problem really. Do you mean sometimes when it hesitates a split second to register the number after pressing it? If so, thats nothing.
 
I still don't understand the "dialing the wrong person" issue. Mine is with the HTC contacts widget, I will press a contact and sometimes wait up to 15-20 seconds for the call to start! I also hate the fact that HTC made the widget dial as default without the ability to set it to open contact, for that you have to hit right on that tiny little name below the pic, something I get maybe 1 out of 30 tries!

how do you turn off Snese UI? ive read that people do this but i dont know how they do it. ive always wondered? and how would you put it back?
 
No idea how to turn sense ui off. Kinda disappointing if you "have" to turn it off. I know what your sayin khagg, thats the most frustrating thing. I do that all the time. I guess we can only hope its fixed in the near future.

Is there a dialer/phone app in the market that fixes it? I seriously doubt it, but worth a shot
 
Well that sucks. I know its 2 totally different applications, but if you use the calculator, just play around with it, it responds super quick, no lag at all. Seems like it would be an easy fix for android or htc
 
Sorry, I thought everyone knew how to turn off Sense UI. Under your settings you go to Application> Application Managment > Scroll Waaaay down to Sense UI. There will be an option to FORCE CLOSE it. Bam you're done.

do mind that you'll lose the sense UI widgets and be reduced to 3 home screens. but damn it's fast as ballz. The dialer is fast.
