This MyTouch is running SUPER slow, WTF!?!

[visualoddity]

Yea, I don't get it. Even when I use a task killer and free up some mem, still slow. We are talking WAY slow. When exiting an app, it can take 2-3 minutes to load the desktop. From home, it will frequently take the same amount of time to load the dialer.

I can't seem to pinpoint a common running app, or an app that was installed when this started. It is incredibly frustrating though, and makes the phone close to useless. It's been like this for a month or two, and I can't take it anymore.

I know I could wipe and bump back to factory (best way?), but I would really like to avoid that, as it is a HUGE pain to reinstall and config all the apps. Can't root, gold card didn't work, so what should I do?

I assume wiping and starting over is the best option, right? :ugh:

Anyone else have this issue?

I used to save every text message.. I had hundreds and hundreds and the phone ran sloooow.. I deleted all of them and it started running decent again.. Might be worth a shot?

Sorry for the ignorance, but how do you back them up?? I loved keeping them, but it bogged my phone down quite a bit.. Gmail has spoiled me a bit I guess hah.

I used MyBackup Pro. It will backup all data and apps. Thanks for the advice, I deleted and rebooted and all seems better. I'm baffled as to how they were causing the issue while not being engaged, but whatever lol...

Anyone know of an app that will let me mass forward to email? I could really use this. I'd restore them, forward them to an email addy, then delete... Help?

Awesome, Glad it seemed to help! I'll give that MyBackup a look-see!

Thanks again! If I get a line on an app that will mass email them, I'll let you know...

SMS Backup sounds like it would do the trick. Never tried it, though.

DL'ed about 20-30 minutes ago and testing. I was waiting to test to post. So far, works awesome! Backing up the old ones and deleting, also set it to auto forward. Just awesome!

Hmm, I do not do any text messaging and only have a couple of 20-second videos and maybe <10 still images yet my mT3G is responding just like the OP described. This started a couple of weeks ago for me with no apparent rhyme or reason.

I have a 4GB card installed (came with), but it says it has +3.5GB free. Only a scientific calculator (forgot the name) and Open SuDoku apps were installed. I guess I could delete both apps, delete the tiny bit of multimedia, and reboot and see if that fixes it.
