why does my 2.5 LAG?

[ghlu]

I actually had to disable sense UI after I upgraded to sprint 2.5 stock and use winmo UI instead because of the lag. For my use (text/phone/web) the default winmo UI is actually not too bad.

after you did the upgrade, did you hard reset or clear storage once? i noticed the lag on the stock 6.5 too, so i did a single flash with one of my phones, and flashed, then did a clear storage on the other phone. after 1 day, you could tell the hard reset helped. the one i didnt h.r. lagged way worse.

Yeah, I always clear storage after upgrade. I think maybe it's the # of text message I have (over 1k). Still, the phone ran fine with stock 2.1 and was speedy with cleanup cab..Maybe I should just revert back to stock 2.1..

i'm actually a little confused on WHEN the hard resets and clear storage should take place, and if it makes a difference. i remember reading somewhere that the process should go...

1)flash to stock (while booting first time take battery out 30 seconds)
2)hard reset
3)clear storage

and then repeat for the custom rom. i've tried taking out the battery method, and also just letting it boot straight from the flash, THEN hard reset followed by clear storage, but both worked out pretty much the same. is there an absolute correct way????

This is exactly what I did, and it runs great!

i always lol when someone says they have over 1000 texts or email from 5 years ago. why? i guess im just too secretive, but i delete all my texts once a week or so. or every time i flash. i just dont see the point in keeping that many.

the last time i even had 100 or so texts in my inbox was ages ago lol probably because i flash almost every single day now but clearing the texts definitely helps any rom run faster.

LOL, that always cracks me up too.

I saw a post recently where some DB actually wondered why his SMS app was so laggy right after he had just restored 4200 text messages with MyPhone. I have done tons of ROM flashes & never once restored a text message.

I clear my inbox out at least once a week to keep things nice & snappy (when I get a really important text, I immediately save it to another location)

I am running a manila 2.5 ROM & get no noticable lag....

hard reset = clear storage. jsut do a clear storage and your good.

It's the texts. Clear them and 2.5 flies.
