Must be better than this!

A messed up card can cause some problems with performance especially if you have apps installed onto it. A backup to your PC and format may be a good idea. That said, I doubt it is the root of your redraw issues, but it shouldn't hurt hehe.

Have you locked your home into memory?

Have you tried the Bulletproof launcher from http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...tproof-launchers-fix-memory-all-androids.html <-- that is different than locking home in memory.

 

The common issue on the D1 that causes redraws is lack of free memory. Once the system runs out of memory it kills the home app and makes it restart keeping you waiting for 10 - 30 seconds. I found that on many GB roms. There are two roms that i didn't suffer from that with. Both are Froyo Based and not GB.
My Personal favorite which is Sourcery Rom (link in my signature if you wanna give it a run).
The other one is Droid Concepts which you can find a link to in the custom roms section.

I know many GB roms have gotten over the Home redraw issue but in one way or another i found memory issues with most of the ones i tried. I know they work great for some people but i use my phone for work and i have to have a reliable rom which to me it has to be Froyo based.

 

Its a memory issue. Your home app is being killed by androids task manager
