Hey all,

What's been your experience, speed wise, with winterboard and iPhone 4?

I've been holding off installing as with my previous iPhone that's what seemed to slow the phone down more then anything.

The only reason I am thinking of installing it is the option of changing my SMS sounds.

Thanks
David

WinterBoard is fine on iPhone 4
Just make sure and checkmark "white icon labels" to change the labels from grey back to white.
 
The only thing I must disagree on is that if you use a FULL COMPLETE theme in Winterboard, depending on the theme it can INDEED slow down your device a little and if no one sees that then their living in denial.

This from a poster who began a thread based on a fake JB site...
Anyway, the number of mods running in WinterBoard does determine the load
As best as I can tell, WB and the mods I have running hasn't slowed down my iPhone 4.
Some may have a different experience.

If you're using newer, up to date, theme that doesn't require SummerBoard support (the kind with bundles folders) you can switch it off and you'll get white labels back without using the "white icon labels" theme.

If you install WinterBoard within minutes of getting your iPhone 4, then there never will be a perceptible slowdown, if one exists.

At least that's my story and I'm quite happy with it! :D
