Click to expand... You need to provide more information... What model iPhone? What are you installing via JB? (i.e. Backgrounder, winter board, etc..)

M mrathee macrumors 6502 Aug 3, 2010 #4 Have you tried restarting it? And how many jailbroken apps are you putting on in that week? There are a ton of apps on cydia/rock that are memory intensive and not really optimized properly and therefore make your phone run terribly slow. Thats the downside to jailbreaking - the apps that are on there can be poorly designed and have huge flaws when running with other apps.

T TheConfuzed1 macrumors 6502a Aug 3, 2010 #8 Winterboard themes can slow your phone down, depending on what they are modifying. If you experience a slow down with Winterboard installed, try changing themes, and see if you can narrow down the culprit.
