After ICS upgrade Phone is very slow to make a call

After ICS upgrade , when I select a contact to call , and then press cell or home , the response time is very slow.
I have pressed the call button more than once thinking it did not take. Then when it does take I end up calling the person
more than once because it has buffered the calls . What can be causing this ?

Mine and my wifes thunderbolts have become horrible since the upgrade was pushed.  Apps are slow, or don't even load some times.  Trying to make a phone call is sluggish and at times it will try to call twice at the same time for some reason.
however, i overlooked all of this because i liked the look of ICS.  then last week after being pushed two updates in a row, it now will just turn off at random times.  i can't even go to a webpage anymore because it will immediately crash.  better yet, when i try to reboot the phone, it will get to the point where it recognizes the verizon network, and then just shut off again.  this happened to me 8 times in a row the other day.  it will also say that the battery is in the red, even though it had a full charge before the crash.
i have found that if i plug my phone in and then boot it up, it will boot up correctly.  that is the only way i have been able to get it to actually boot up since all of this started happening.  it will still show the battery is about to die, and then about 15 minutes later it will show it is at 100% again.
i tried to do the chat with a reprensentative today and the guy was asking for my account password before he could look into my issue.  what kind of company asks for a password.  that is the dumbest thing i have seen.  so now, i have a phone that "sometimes" works, and online chat that reminds me of a scamming site. 
when my wife called to talk to someone they told her that it was htc's fault and that it would cost us $60 each to switch to new phones.  how is that customer service?  besides, verizon's network sent the update.  there is no way that they can try to say it wasn't their fault.  that isn't how the real world works.
i have reposted this from another thread, but since there seems to be someone from VZW reading this, perhaps some info can be found...

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    If no joy...
    Reset all settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
    This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
    If the issue persists...
    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer
    iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download

  • My samsung stratosphere is very slow to place a call.  I input the number and push CALL.  Nothing happens.  I try it again and nothing happens.  Then some time later (2-5 mins) the phone goes ahead and dials.  What is causing this delay in dialing?

    wadams5641,
    Let's add some speed to your service and ensure you can make calls without the
    delay. When was the last time you turned off your phone? Is the software up to

  • After iOS5 on 3 gs, lost all apps, music, phone became very slow

    Installed last nigh iOS 5.0.1 on my 3 gs. Was always very happy with my phone, now only upsetting things - phone became unnormal slow, lost my music and all apps are gone (and I don't remember all names of them). The worst part - Pandora radio doesn't play music anymore when I'm using Safari like it used to and music plays through the headphones only, when I tried to play music through the speakers it says no volume available and I can't hear anything. What happened? Is it there way I can back my phone to a normal life? Its a very important gadget in my life (I don't know the city very well, so I'm using maps a lot) and I used Skype a lot so I can contact my family, now even Skype freeze and I can't use it normally. Also my computer can't 'see' a phone anymore and I can't download pictures and now worry that I can lost even them.
    I greatly appreciate your help!
    Have a great day!

    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

    I don't really understand your comment about "sing of tubes in RED which is wired". But if you are referring to the display of iTunes and the USB port that is an indication that you must restore your iPhone by connecting it to your computer via USB and then using iTunes on the computer to restore it.

  • Rendering After Effects Comps can be very slow

    I have a PP CS6 project which has quite a few in-line After Effects comps in the main sequence.  The are all image stabilisation (for clips which are are of a different size of the sequence).  When I render then most of fairly quick (several frames a second) but some are very slow (a frame every few seconds).  The settings on the warp stabilise is the same for all of them.  It seems to be the longer clips that cause problems (sometimes over 30 secs). Anyone know why or got a way to speed up the longer clips?

    Welcome home, Mench!
    To maintain the alpha channel from AE, the OP will want to look up how to be using two codecs, Animation and ProRes 4444. Both are extensively described in the help system for FCP and After Effects or just google them for several hours of interesting reading. The OP will also need to understand the concept of an alpha channel which, come to think of it, was difficult for me.

  • Droid RazR keeps freezing after ICS upgrade

    After the ICS upgrade my Droid RazR keeps freezing & I have to reset it by holding down the on-off & volume down buttons...I did a factory reset as well which seemed to help but it still sporadically freezes up especially when texting...Is anyone else having this issue & know of a solution..? My battery drains a lot faster now too I've noticed.

    In another discussion thread, regor3 did the FR but did not allow the reset to restore the apps. Instead they reinstalled the apps one at a time on their own and things improved dramatically. There are apparently some old GB apps that don't play well with ICS.

  • Problems with Bionic after ICS upgrade

    I've had a few issues with the ICS upgrade on my Bionic, but one in particular bothers me the most.  When I get a text or voicemail or other alert at the top of the screen, sometimes I am not able to pull down the menu to check the alert.  That was one of the best shortcuts on the phone. When it gets stuck like that, I have to reboot the phone. This can happen once or twice a day.  Anybody else have that issue or was able to fix it?
    Thanks!

    Clear system cache:
    Power down phone
    Hold volume up/down & power simultaneously
    Use volume down to navigate to 'Recovery', use volume up to select
    Should see screen with triangle and exclamation point next to an Android
    Press volume up/down simultaneously
    Use volume rocker to navigate to 'wipe cache' and use power button to select
    Once finished, use volume rocker to navigate to 'reboot system now' and use power button to select

    Hi
    Do you have yellow exclamation marks in device manager?
    On the Toshiba website I have founded an installation instructions document. Did you follow this installation order for all drivers and tools?
    Furthermore please check in device manager if you have enabled the DMA mode for the primary and secondary IDE controller.

  • Curve lagging behind/very slow to make calls

    Hi, My Curve lately has been really slow.  I try to use a speed dial and it takes about 10 seconds to actually make the call and it doesn't even show on the screen at first that a call is being made.  The hourglass shows up alot.  Even setting my alarm at night takes a few seconds before it will open up that screen.  Opening any app takes a while too.  Under status it says for file free I have 10197903 bytes free.  I haven't downloaded any new apps recently.  Anyone have any ideas?  Thanks :-)

    It might just need to be rebooting/reset. Soft reset is ALT/DEL/RT SHIFT KEY together. Hard reset, remove battery and replace after 30 sec to a min. This will also help with freeing up some device memory. Almost all electronic equipment needs to be rebooted/reset some time. For me, I usually only do it once a week unless I load something and I need to reset.  I hope this helps.
