my iPhone 3Gs (White) seems to take ages to laod anything that i am trying to use on it, especially whilst a music playlist is on shuffle, after each song, it takes roughly 30 seconds for the song to start playing (which is very tedious after a while).
Is there anyway I could speed up the processing speed of my phone? and is there a hardware upgrade i could get such as get an a4 processing chip installed into it?

My bold moves incredibly slow!! It's a company phone that can with some apps on it but I never use them so they aren't running in the background. The phone will take anywhere from 5 to 45 seconds to do the command I am issuing, even simple things like trying to unlock it, open emails, scrolling through pages.

That said, I have noticed some commentary regarding the Torch processor speed that I see as seriously ignorant and wanted to provide some insight.Processing power is not a function of clock speed. Processing power is a function of the elegance of the instruction set, the design of the processor's peripheral registers and buses, and the programmer's competence.What does this mean? A very simple processor will have lots and lots of instructions that you can use to build the machine code. Also, a simple processor will have registers to accept instructions and registers to respond linearly to what was input, with no peripheral registers. Think of a box with a chute where something comes in and a chute of identical size where something comes out. In contrast, an elegant processor design will have very few instructions, will have peripheral registers, and require a much more intelligent programmer to utilize.
For this type of processor imagine a box with a chute where something comes in, a chute where something comes out, and chutes all around the sides of the box where specific products automatically come out that can be used to make something without more coming into the "input" chute. FYI, the elegant processor has fewer instructions because it already performs automatically many of the functions that require an instruction and extra clock cycle on simple processors.
A processor works by taking the product that comes out, storing it, waiting for more product to come out, then combining products to come up with usable data. Obviously the faster you pump out products, the faster you make something usable. But what if the elegant processor has products coming out the side chutes automatically, without being told by the programmer, that can be used to keep from having to input and output info over and over to come up with the same end product? Well, it can work more slowly and accomplish more in less time, because the design is sophisticated and the programmer knows how to instruct it. Think of the products coming out of the side chutes on a good processor as products that come out the end on simple processors. The simple processor needs extra instructions, and consequently extra clock cycles of output going to the input over and over, to make specific products come out that the elegant processor simply places on the side chutes without being asked. For this reason, good processors usually have fewer instructions to use.
Let's go back to the year 1997. You had Intel Pentium, AMD Athlon and Duron, and Motorola processors, in general. Intel has always had many instructions, few peripheral registers, and fast clock speeds. Motorola always had a very simple instruction set, peripheral registers, and relatively slow clock speeds. AMD fit in between.What did everyone buy? Well, of course Intel because Intel was faster. But guess what? My AMD at 700 MHz smoked the crap out of an Intel at 1 GHz. Did the Intel fan boys care, or know what they were talking about? Of course not. We all know that old Macs with Motorolas killed PCs with Intel processors of identical speed and did not require ultra high processing speeds such as Intel.
Intels have historically been designed for newbs to utilize. They have (or at least had) an instruction set and overall design that requires an ignorant programmer to use clock cycles for every single calculation. The Motorola was designed for intelligent people to program however. The Motorola will yield usable data(on the side chutes) that can be used, or not used, for every clock cycle that can be combined with output to effectively stack data in one clock cycle that an Intel will need at least 2-3 cycles to produce by going from output to input over and over. Thus, the Intel has to be significantly faster than the competition to do the same work. I suspect that Intel, over the last 10-12 years, has caught up with the overall quality of its processors because the top speed is changing little while their productivity is rising quickly.
I really didn't have any problems with IOS 5.01 on my iphone4. Not even battery life troubles.However, after upgrading to IOS 5.1, it's really slow and stutters all the time.'ve had it freeze for up to 10 seconds while trying to swipe to answer a phone call.If often freezes up for many seconds at a time.I've tried killing all running programs and re-booting too.

Speedtest.Net results over 4G = 0.15 Mpbs down and 0.05 Mpbs up ans that's will FULL bars! AT&T claims that there are no network issues in my area and they are not throttling my device. Even over WiFi it's taking FOREVER to download apps from the app store, etc.

View 2 Replies View RelatedFor the past several weeks, my D3 (got it the day they came out) has become intermittently slow. Sometimes it takes several seconds to respond to a screen touch - most often when placing a phone call. There have been times that it takes 20 or more seconds (sometimes more than a minute) to change to the phone app. Where the request to make a call used to happen instantaneously, it now never happens in less than several seconds.Yes, other apps show slowness on occasion, but none as slow as the phone app.I don't recall adding a particular app and then noticing the slowness.I've gone through the running programs and killed some - no effect on the slowness.I've rebooted and seen improvement - and not, usually not.I've removed several apps that I was not using - no change.It is a stock phone with stock apps and a few common/popular downloaded apps that mainly deal with weather, flying, and tasks/notes.

On all of my iOS devices (iPad 3rd generation, iPhone 5) downloading tracks takes a few seconds on wifi, however having downloaded it takes minutes for it to finish "Processing...". Downloads on iTunes on the mac are fine and finish as soon as it has downloaded the data.

It is also able to detect if you are using an iPhone or Android and adjust accordingly. It worked great with my G2. It could fast charge my wife's G2 and my G2 at the same time. However, on my Nexus 5 I just got, it is only charging at USB speed.

View 1 Replies View Relatedbeen looking at ios 4 gold master release reviews, either from Internet reviews or bigger tech news sites. it appears it's as snappy on the 3gs as the iphone 4 was when they got their hands on it at wwdc, which is slightly surprising. but then not so much.
i've been reading some info about this a4 chip, as i wondered why steve jobs didn't coin "1ghz cpu!" every other word like he did the ipad. my personal guess. down-clocked for battery performance. equally though i read that the a4 is actually based on the a8 cortex which the iphone 3gs already has, so it's almost to the point where it's just a custom version of that:
http://www.hirdyman.co.uk/2010/03/01...arm-cortex-a8/
in the ipads case, it's just a stripped down a8 so from where i'm standing and what i've read. iphone 4 really isn't going to feature any sort of bump in speed over the 3gs, which is good i think for allot of people waiting for their upgrade date.
i'm personally letting the dust settle and until t-mobile uk bring out pay as you go options, which will see me get rid of my 3gs for the iphone 4.. but until that day arrives, i'm pretty chuffed that the only major upsides to the iphone 4 is new design, screen and camera.. and that we won't see any speed reduction.
any thoughts chaps?
So I took the first couple pics with the camera and now I've had a persistent notification (been there overnight at this point) that says "processed 2 of 8 items". Has a progress bar on it and (at this point) yesterdays date.

Since like 1.5 years I got an iPhone 4. But it's getting slower and slower! And sometimes if I put on the home button it doesn't works or if I put once on the home button, I get the voice control! So my question is, how can I speed up my iphone 4?

I felt like there was no difference with the speed of the ip4 than my 3gs. I gave my 3gs to my daughter and the other night she needed to me get her signed up for netflix. There is a significant difference. I thought she had did something to cause the speed to slow down so I restored her phone It was a little faster but not like my ip4. She doesn't have the jailbreak because for some reason I can't jailbreak her phone. I do have the jailbreak and even though I notice a slight lag it is still faster at opening apps than the 3gs. I knew there was a difference in the display but I didn't realize it was so big of a difference. I sometimes wonder did I just jump on board with buying the ip4 because besides the hardware it wasn't that big of a difference. But now I see there is a huge difference. The 3gs is a great phone but the ip4 is a much better phone. It is smoother and definitely faster and you can't beat the retina display. And by the way I never had any problems with the antenna because I immediately put my phone in a case for protection even before I heard about atennagate and I always use a bluetooth or headset for my phone so if I have the issue with the ps I never noticed.

I would kindly ask for some support concerning my iPhone GS: The smartphone runs with the latest firmware and its memory capacity is still around 50% of the maximum (btw: it is not cracked and I do not want to do that). It seems to me that the processing speed gets worse every day.
Opening apps can quite take a while and so are any actions including some text input (e.g. task planners).
Could it be that this is due to the permanent connection to cloud services like Dropbox or Exchange Server (for email, tasks, and notes)?
