Help Lagging Keyboard

Mi-Nigle

Lurker
This is driving me crazy now, I've done all I can but I need help. A few weeks ago the keyboard, especially in Messages, started to lag. I tap the letters I want and it takes a few seconds for the word to appear. It also prevents the auto-correct from kicking in unless I wait for each individual letter to show up before pressing the next one.

It's an intermittent problem though, sometimes it works without a hitch then it starts to lag for no apparent reason. I tried deleting some messages and I thought it worked, then lagging began again after a few minutes. I tried to delete the Messages cache and data, which again worked for a short while then back to lagging. I tried stopping running apps and clearing their caches which had the same effect. Restarting the phone doesn't do the trick either, I'm running out of ideas.

As far as I'm aware there were no system updates before it started and I've installed a very small amount of apps since. MessagesCS has force closed a couple of times too. I haven't rooted the phone and as far as I'm aware the USB debugging glitch was fixed in Sense 3.0? The rest of the phone lags too but it's more noticeable when typing. I don't use a live wallpaper either.

If you have any suggestions please help, I don't know what else to do.
 
can you tell us wot keyboard you are running, i often found similar problems when i was running the stock htc keyboard, i found turning the vibrate and sound on key press off helped some wot, but ended up going over to the gingerbread keyboard which i have found A1, i also turned the vibrate and sound option off,
and i must say iv have no probs with it and it is super fast.
