HTC TP2 --Turned off HTC Sense and runs much better

[JimP]

It seems lately that my touch pro 2 was getting slower and slower when web browsing and I thought I'd try something to see if it would help out.

It was very much acting as a computer that was underpowered.

So I went into settings/live/second tab and turned off HTC Sense. O.K.ed it, exited, turned phone off, removed battery (to be sure that the cache has cleared), waited a few minutes, put it back together and rebooted.

Opera (my main brower) was much faster than before....to the degree that I might put off my replacement purchase that I was planning to make in a few months.

If I were to guess, I probably got some kind of unknown update to windows mobile or to the HTC interface that slowed it down. They'll probably fix it eventually (if I bother to check) but for now, its much faster than before. The downside is the lack of the HTC interface but given that I pretty much couldn't use the computer side of the phone, what else could I do.

In case anyone is wondering, about weekly, I power the phone off and remove the battery. That has helped with a problem I've had in the past with a stock market tracking program.
