Anyone notice your phone loads a lot slower after jailbreaking? I have an IPhone 4, and its the first time I have jailbroken one of my IPhones.. and it now feels like its running a lot slower, like I'm using a 3G or something.. :mad:

I think I will just restore to factory settings and call it a day..

or

Is it possible to jailbreak twice? Ive heard you can't do so..
 
nope. mines a 32 gig iphone 4. jailbroken. running extremely strong. occasional hiccups here and there but its expected. try rebooting the phone. usually works for me if i feel the phones performance is running subpar.
 
I didn't notice any difference after I JB. I think it was fast to start with and just as fast after JB. Maybe try to restore to new and try JBing again?
 
what do you mean jailbreak twice. rejailbreak sure you can just have to know how to load the correct firmware. I did it yesterday. came home from Apple with exchanged phone on 4.0 jailbroke it then redid it on 4.0.1 where I will stay! jailbreaking isn't for everybody never will be!
 
Everythings been fine for me too. I haven't noticed any slowdown at all and all my apps launch with the same speed as pre-jailbreak.
 
I will add I think allot of stuff people report stuff in there head. one guys will say it's faster another will say it's slower. better battery life another guy says it sucks. so on and so on. allot also depends on what you add. jailbreaking is not just going to jailbreakme.com then Cydia and start adding apps. you can always try it again latter you just might have to wait for different jailbreak. I would also save your shsh before you unjailbreak, that way you can go back! :D
 
Well, I just restored factory settings, and in the process it upgraded to 4.0.2..

So I guess I will be waiting for a new jailbreak, or is downgrading possible?

:confused:

If you got your 4.0.1 SHSH on file in Cydia, you can downgrade. Otherwise, nope. :)
 
i just jailbroke my phone....NO problems with it what so ever in terms of speed and boot up. Pretty much exactly the same time to start up as i did when i took it out of the box.

The only difference is the little lines on the top of the screen from the jailbreaking process.

Did you JB on a fresh install? I always restore my phone to a fresh state and JB from there...then install my apps. I ALWAYS setup my phone as new...never restore from a backup in itunes.

good deal, hopefully this one will work just right !
 
I compared opening apps on my Iphone4 (jailbroken) to my wifes iphone4 (not jailbroken) and there is definitely a difference.

Her apps open faster and load faster.

examples
App store loads about 5 seconds slower
Camera loads about 2-3 seconds slower
flixster loads about 5 seconds slower
facebook loads about 5 seconds slower

I know its not a huge difference but it has me thinking about restoring.

It's been said before, jailbreaking's not for everybody.
 
I haven't noticed a noticeable decrease in speed after jailbreaking, and I have a ton of hacks and tweaks done to my phone, as well as a lot of Winterboard garbage.

I think the only thing that seems slightly slower to me is the initial bootup process, once booted in everything is very snappy, just like always!
