Hey my phone the last week or so has all of a sudden started lagging badly. It seems ever since I started to try the live weather wallpaper almost. might be it but it might not be.


any ideas on how to speed it up again easily?

Just curious have you stopped using the Live weather widget to clarify if the lagging goes away?

changed it back to normal wallpaper and still lags.. usually lags the most after turning on the screen from being on stand by off. (I mean pressing the top button to turn screen off),

its like my laptop is hella-slow after in sleep mode for a while then after a few minutes its back to normal speed. phone only did it a bit before now it seems like its lagging all the time after sitting with the screen off for a while.

Have you tried rebooting the phone since changing the wallpaper back?

It could be that the weather app has caused a memory leak which is still affecting the phone even though you've removed it.

yep. tried it. again its only after the i have had the screen off for say 20 plus minutes. once I slide unlock it back on, it lags for about 1-2 minutes badly until it 'warms' up

You have a Task Manager app installed?

Run it...kill everything....it will reopen what it needs to automatically. Go back to the home screen....leave phone for 30 seconds to a minute....don't do anything on the phone.

Then open Task Manager abck up.

What apps are listed? What apps have opened themselves back up?
