"You need to open up terminal and type ssh root@(your ip address) password "alpine" then copy and paste this script and hit enter
find / -type d \
-name "*.lproj" -not -iname "en*.lproj" \
-exec /bin/rm -vrf '{}' \;"
Where can I find this terminal on cyberduck O_O???

I installed Speed Intensifier via Cydia and it feels a lot faster even though I think it just decreases the transitions. Check it out.
Nice and simple guideI'm jailbroken but all the steps you listed for jailbroken phones are too overwhelming for me x__x I'll stick with the first part :]
Atleast remove language packs, Copy and paste cant be too overhwhelming
Terminal from OSX
Are you sure about this? I thought it keeps it in Flash memory, not RAM, which would have no effect on system performance.
I just did this and now my 1st gen iPad 3G is extremely slow and irresponsive. Like when at lockscreen it will take for ever to recognize me tapping my unlock code. Same when tapping an URL in safari. I blame this more on me making a mistake than on OP. But... any idea? What gives?
EDIT: after having to restore my iPad I did the procedure again and while this time it is working correctly there is NO major improvement in performance. Deleting unnecessary LaunchDaemons will suffice IMHO.

No, apps are suspended in Ram. You can see this by using a memory monitor and closing apps in the multitasking bar.
Launch daemons and language packs are the most important i think; the ipad is quite a bit faster than the iP4/iPT4, etc. This will help more so with slower devices, ie: 3GS, 3G, etc.
The latter part of what they said was correct though, memory that is cached will have no impact on performance (other than a positive one).
So, how do I excatly delete the files for windows? :S I don't have terminal since I'm not running a Mac.
Thanks
Thanks
I am working on solving that problem, i think a whole new script would have to be made.
Use winSCP it has a terminal built in. That said I guess you Know you don't need Terminal.app per se right? Any ssh client will work...even putty. Geee... Windows users... Lol. Jk.
when i have time i might try some of these tips, but for now does fake clockup have any detrimental effects to the iphone, does it have increased battery drain or any effects on the cpu on of the iphone
If you read a few posts up you Will see this benefits the most slower devices like iPhone 3G/3Gs and older iPods touch. Troll is troll
So I ran your script on IP4 and deleted all language packs expect English & Spanish.
Then I deleted the recommended Launch Daemons except the ones that you stated you had no clue what they are for. I left those alone.
Starting fresh after a reboot ..... SBSettings shows 320 MB available.
Using Safari 287 MB
Using Safari and Pandora streaming it actually went up to 298 MB
While Safari open, Pandora streaming and using Navigon, it's 256 MB
Usually Navigon alone brings it below 200MB.
I do notice it's a bit more snappy than before and playing around with it opening multiple apps and closing them while doing other tasks. It seems like the available memory is more steady rather than jumping all over the place like before.

I tried but i keep getting error still. Is there a way to delete the languages??? Running Win 7 pc and iPod touch Gen 4
Try PuTTYs built in terminal, other then that you will have to wait for me to compile a script for windows. You could also manually delete them, but using the script is the safest way.
