Afternoon,
I own a 3G, 16gb Jailbroken IPhone. Firmwire: 4.2.1
The main reason for the JBin was the ability to have the multitasking on a 3G, aswell as the homegrown apps/themes.
So basically, a while back the phone started becoming slow.
1- Whilst loading apps, most start to load, then suddenly goes back to homescreen. When the app eventually loads, they take a good while to start.
2- When i try to send a text/email or use the keyboard, it also takes a while to pop up & then whilst im typing, it doesnt respond (freezes up) with my typing. Sometimes i can finish a whole sentence whilst its still frozen, before it catches up.
3- The major one & the most annoying is when i try to change apps.
E.g: When im in an app & bring up the multitask to change, when i click a different app, it freezes & summerboard crashes.
If i want to send a text, i have to go through the messaging. If i go through contacts & click "send message", summerboard crashes.
If i click a youtube link on safari, summerboard freezes,
Also, just general scrolling, Its just slow.
Ive tried deleting all cydia apps, one by one to find the cause, but it didnt make a change.
Ive tried putting off/on the phone every now & then, which helps the slowness, but not the summerboard crashing.
Should i just reset the phone to its non JB state or sell it off.
Isit because its an old version?
Can it be fixed?
Help please.
Thanks.
