    Default So, about the MyTouch...


    Why is no one crying how cripplingly SLOW it is? Did I get a defective one, or am I just too impatient? I can type a 160 char sms message all the way to the end before the letters actually start showing up (exageration). I can count to 12 after pressing the home button before the home screen finally shows up. When I touch an icon to open an app, it literally takes up to 10 seconds to launch some times. I don't even use the phone because I can't take how god awful slow it is. I usually don't come out of the wood work for very much, but this is silly. I'd rather get a RAZR. At least it can keep up with my typing....

    Something is wrong with your phone. I think, obviously, if EVERYONE's myTouch worked as your does, you'd be seeing a lot of complaints.

    My mT3G seems a little snappier then my G1.

    Either you have a defective phone, or you have a lot of programs running in the background. Do you have a home replacement program, and/or a number of widgets or other programs which run in the background?

    I am using OpenHome, but turned off the weather widget. I have a clock widget, widgets to turn on/off wifi, sound, lock screen and bluetooth, and my phone is very quick!

    I have open home set up with 5 screens and every single one of them is filled up with widgets and icons.

    I have no complaints about it being slow or loading, with the exception being from returning from internet browsing like with the G1. Do you have a very large amount of texts on the phone?

    Of course I have a lot of texts. I have unlimited sms with the MT3G plan and I intend to milk it. But my G1 never had a problem with 1000+ texts. I have very few programs even installed and even less of them running in the background. I am using the default home application. The only widgets I use are the Retro Date widget and the google search bar.

    Maybe my phone rolls Alliance and hates me for putting a Horde background?

    *sigh*

    Guess it's time for a 611 call...

    Kommie,

    I just posted something about the "MyTouch" 3G signal, NOT living up to the G1 3G signal.

    My mother HATES her phone, she calls me at least 3 times a day (crying about that damn phone.

    I told her to use wifi while in the house and stop complaining, Lolll

    * I also had to teach her how to search while in the market (not having a qwerty keyboard) can be a pain while trying to do so.
