I can confirm that the region specific handwriting recognizers are much slower than the default (WG1). When i first got my phone, it was the HK version with the chinese character input. With this firmware there were options for adjusting recognition sensitivity as well as whole word (as opposed to character) recognition. Even with the sensitivity tuned to fastest, it was still unusably slow.

After i used xs++ to change my region to WG1, I lost the chinese character input and the handwriting recognition sped up tremendously. There is no longer the option to adjust recognition speed, but this is entirely unnecessary since the recognition is so much faster to begin with.

As another poster noted, by changing your region to WG1, you also get access to the latest firmware. Additionally, the anti-aliased fonts on the WG1 firmwares look much much better than the fonts in some of the asian firmwares.


This is great news, thanks for the reply Ylam and Chow Ahbeng, at least now the reason for teh slow handwriting is clear.

How do I change to WG1? What do you mean by xs++? Is that a software? I really don't mind losing teh recognition speed if I can get good handwriting recognition performance. Appreciate all your help, please reply

To flash your P1i to WG1, you will need 2 things:

XS++

Sony Ericsson Update Service

There is a fairly straightforward guide on how to do the reflashing here:

I would suggest that before you do any of this you connect your phone to your PC and do a full backup with SE PC Suite. This will make it easier to retrieve your contacts, and settings after you have reflashed your phone.
