Anyone else notice a severe slowdown after Froyo update

[brodney]

Seriously, I thought that Froyo was supposed to be faster, and improve battery life, My DROID is way slower after update, and battery is drained way faster than with 2.1... Why???

Also, why does email have to be running constantly?

Any ideas???

Thanks.

ehh mine is way faster. As for email always running probably so it can constantly check for new emails.

Been numerous posts about this already.
My Droid is faster with Froyo, and the battery lasts just as long as before, if not longer. Doesn't seem like anyone has been able to figure out why people are getting such diametrically opposed results yet.

Yeah, mine isn't and hangs, on many view changes. Also, when I touch an icon on the home screen the yellow highlight stays for a second and the screen transition is slow and blurred.
When in messaging the keyboard takes a second or two to come up, and sending takes a lot longer than before...
The gallery takes a good 5 minutes to display photos...

I just reinstalled the update, and no change.

I figured that about email, but I don't want it constantly working in the background. And no task killer kills it, or rather it comes back on after kill...

I wonder if the FRG022 update will fix these issues...

Mines is slow also... I'm about to remove it and root again

A factory reset might solve some of these issues. I know after the 2.1 update I had to do one and everything ran fine after that

If you have a taskiller, uninstall it! FB, get the updated fix for that. Then see how it is running.

Glad I am not alone, mine too has been running slow, and after boot it is still unusable for about 50 seconds.

Also when I slide to unlock the phone, the slider looks frozen for a second or 2 before it goes to my home page.

Even my browser is slower, at first I thought it was just foxnews.com, but it is like that on other pages as well. Sometimes my after clicking a link, my browser will just open a blank white page.

+ 1 for removing task killers. Additionally, if you did not wipe restore your backup, wipe and reinstall.

If you are experiencing a slower Droid it has to be something that you are running that is causing it. This version of 2.2 is a faster version then 2.1.

If you are running antivirus, or task killers, get rid of them.

If you still see it's running slower then something else is causing the issue. A factory data reset will have it running like new.

There is just no way this build is slower. Quadrant test show that it's faster.
