Google Voice SLOW after recent update

[tkormylo]

Hello everyone,

I am new to the site, so Hello!

I did some searching recently on the Google Voice application running slow after a recent update, but found no threads other than one from 2010.

I recently bought a Nexus S from Samsung (google phone) and use Google Voice app to do all my texting over a WiFi signal as I do not have reception in my home. About a week ago there was an update for the app and I did the install. Since then the GUI looks a bit different and now the app runs SOOO slow! I am prompted to force close often, clicking has HUGE lag to open items, and is just overall so slow!

Before the update it ran like a dream.

Has anyone else experienced this?? New to Android phones and apps... should I just re-install. What is the best practice to handle this?

Thank you all, I do appreciate it.

They really botched this update.

Many people (including myself) are no longer receiving notifications when texts come.

I reverted back to the version from last week before the 2 recent updated.

Thank you,

Can you quickly describe how you revert back to a previous version?

I had it backed up with titanium.

Works even better after this update for me. Seems just like the compatibility sucks with your phone.

Perhaps. And many other phones according to recent market feedback.

Here it is. Just save it to your phone, navigate to it with a file manager and click on it.

Just saying, I got put on probation for posting links to apks that I had backed up for personal use. Might want to remove that.

Thank you for all your help. I will try the legacy version and see what happens. It may be my phone, I am not too sure at this point. All I DO know is that THIS particular version (newest) runs dog slow. Too bad. Looks nice.

Thanks again all.
