Help ICS made NEO V slow!!

the update from Sony to Android 4.0 has made my phone slow.. compared to wat is was wit 2.3 Android.. Apps keep crashing.. Phone hangs.. apps respond slower.. do any of u face a similar prob?

I won't beat around the bush.. I'll tell you how to solve it.. But, are you ok with rooting your phone and installing a custom ROM? and adding a few hacks to speed up your phone?

Do a hard reset of the phone and everytime the phone slows down or starts getting slow, just switch it off and on again (that way most of the processes will be killed for sure), and ps. don't use task managers, waste of time...

I too getting frustrated about its slowness after updating to android 4. it was fast on 2.3.4

I have the same problem. I bought a brand new xperia neo v and started enjoying the awsomes features that this phone provides. Unfortunatlely everything got screwed up when I committed the mistake of upgrading to ICS 4.0. Soni shoulden't have proposed an upgrade option for the phone.:eek:

I will try mustang2012 suggestion with the service ecnter to get back my GB version
