What do you mean by slow? Are you referring to a benchmark result?

Is it just laggy? Not snappy enough? Or is it actually not opening up apps?

To increase the speed, i would recommend (without getting into a root conversation...unless thats what you want):

-Do not use live wallpapers
-Do not use widgets
-If you are using a task killer (set it to auto kill)---and people, dont hate on him for using ATK, thats for another thread

Hey there... Which firmware are you on at the moment ? I personally am against task killers cos to me they serve no purpose (but I'd rather not get into that)... Try flashing to a beret firmware like jm8 or jm9... I personally would recommend Tayutamas jm8 rom with voodoo beta 4... Its available on xda-developers.com .... If you don't wasn't to bother yourself with flashing new roms and all , just instal oclf app from the market... You will definitely see an improvement...

Cheers... Come and join the indian thread also....

You could even try putting off all the animations... But seriously , not using widgets really causes your android to lose a lot of its charm.. (that doesn't mean that you flood all 5/7 home screens with them)

It will root the phone for you ...

If you are one of those guys who dont want to root their phone , then try this

Download | Project Voodoo, Galaxy S improvements

This is much better than oclf , does not require root , but requires you to use the update.zip method ... Read the instructions its very simple ...

btw , what firmware are you using ? ddjg4 ? or the same one when you bought the phone ?

type *#1234# into your dialler and right down what you see and post it here ..

cheers ..

Depends.

To be honest, i hated LagFix. I had several issues with force closes and permission errors. The only thing i really noticed with LagFix was really high benchmark results. Thats about it.

I know for certain i am not alone with this.

Keep in mind, VooDoo should come out soon. I have heard great things about Project VooDoo and not near as many complaints.
