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.

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 ?
If you have an answer Please email me at: Personal email address removed to comply with VZW ToS< Thanks
Message was edited by: Verizon ModeratorMine 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... -
Do older models always lag behind/run slow?
The reason why I ask is I currently have an iPhone 4S. I got it in July of 2012 right before the iPhone 5 came out. After iOS 7 came out I noticed performance decreases. I don't think I had any major performance issues before 7.
My question is, do older models of Apple products lag behind when they release updates? I want to buy the new iPad mini and want to keep and use it for years to come(more than 2) but I am concerned if it will start showing performance issues when Apple starts releasing updates.
How good is an Apple product before someone has to upgrade? Do the older models lag badly or is this just an IOS 7 issue..If You Think iOS 7 Feels Slow Here’s How to Speed It Up
http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/23/ios-7-slow-speed-it-up/http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/23/ios-7-slow-speed-it-up/
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

When I got this and hooked it up. it was so easy to connect it to the puter and all but apple tv is lagging behind, so slow and had to wait to catch up to be able to watch movie(s) What can I do about it? ( the previous airport extreme had no problem with the apple tv, never lags behind.
H.E.L.P.Dear LaPastenague,
many thanks for your ultra response...I have revisited my earlier thoughtsi / question...I possibly may have not mentioned, the whole intention was to add another device which is in my kitchen and cabling to it could prove time consuming....
Just came back from Maplins with a NetGear universal wireless adaptor for my Win XP machine which will be located in the kitchen.
I was balancing future swap arounds with the AE if my TC [ 2nd Gen] decides to pack up on me.
Good evening

HI , I am having a big problem with my DSL internet , I switched to Verizon DSL since 2005 and the speed during the last year was very slow until it became very very slow recently, I call Verizon on 08/17 to check if they have faster connection , They offered 3M speed internet so I switched and it suppose to be ready at the same day ,when I got home at that day I found no internet at all , I called the tech and after long time waiting and testing they said the router is no good we have to send you new router , I received the router and connected to the phone line and I have internet , But it is slower than my old speed !!
I called back the tech and she did more tests then scheduled an appointment for a tech. To check the line in my apartment on 08/24 form Pm to 4.00 pm, no one showed yesterday I called back to check ,the lady said I will check and call you back and she did not , Today the speed on the internet in the morning .0009 /0.02 done by Verizon speed test website …
What is my next step; every time I call it takes me 15-20m to talk to a human.#1 Please post the modem stats, from the modem combo.
I am not sure where this is located in your modem combo, it might be at System Monitoring -> Advanced Status -> Transciever Stats
#2 Is Wireless in the modem combo, enabled?
#3 If so to the question above, what level of wireless security is it set to ( WEP / WPA ) ?

My MacBook Pro gets very slow while doing work like watching movies and using net .. video gets lag very often and while surffing on net it gets very slow ...
First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the problem.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
Step 2
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long. -
Just got the phone I like it but it is very slow! is BB coming out with a software update or something to fix this soon?
I have noticed that during data intensive tasks (Viigo update), it will slow a lil bit
Other than that, I dont see the lag. maybe you are clicking on an icon too much and opening it up twice but relly canceling it and opening it up.

Very Slow / Lag When Screen Moves...
Hi Guys,
I’m really a newbie when it comes to AS3 – so really a total newbie when it comes to using it to develop iPhone games/apps, but I have used AS2 for years now
I’ve been trying to do a simple test – Just use mouse events to move a screen around depending on what is pressed. No Characters/hittests/etc.
What I have created works great on my pc – very smooth, and even on the iphone, the controls work as expected – but the problem is how SLOW everything is running. Pressing the "UP" arrow - makes the screen move, but very SLOW and Jumpy.
I have tried using onkeyframe and using a timer – but both are very slow.
Typically when I made games in AS2 – the “level” would just be a single BIG movieclip – as shown in “Example A” – but this was very slow on the iphone, so I tried a tile based approach (“Example B”), which reuses the same movieclips, it just moves them and renames them – trying to cut memory usage down, only loading what is needed - but still its slow. The total size of the "level" is only about 3x bigger than the iphone visible screen.
I have made sure all variables are done correctly: var thisVar:int = 10; etc and have enabled cache as bitmap. I have replaced all vector graphics with jpegs, and followed the guide on how to optimize code for iphone development – but nothing seems to work, everything just lags as the screen moves/updates – but everything works great on my pc.
Can someone please explain what I am doing wrong? Is there a way to cache the whole map before the game loads? Which is the correct way to make an iphone game where the level is bigger than the default screen - tile based or a large level graphic.
Thanks so much for any help! I’ve been trying to get this simple test working for 3 days now – but documentation is limited at the moment.
Cheers!This should be better:
the function addPage() is what I used to test Bitmaps
import flash.display.Shape;
import flash.display.Sprite;;
Multitouch.inputMode = MultitouchInputMode.GESTURE;
var currentGalleryItem:Number = 1;
var totalGalleryItems:Number = 4;
var slideCounter:Number = 0;
var gallery_items:Sprite = new Sprite();
addChild(gallery_items);
addPages();
stage.addEventListener (TransformGestureEvent.GESTURE_SWIPE, fl_SwipeToGoToNextPreviousFrame);
// create pages
function addPages():void
addShape(0, 0, 0xff0000);
addShape(768, 0, 0x00ff00);
addShape(1536, 0, 0x0000ff);
function addPage(xPos:Number, yPos:Number):void
var p:Bitmap = new Bitmap(new bookPage());
p.x = xPos;
p.y = yPos;
gallery_items.addChild(p);
function addShape(xPos:Number, yPos:Number, col:uint):void
var s:Shape = new Shape();
s.graphics.beginFill(col);
s.graphics.drawRect(xPos, yPos, 768, 1028);
s.graphics.endFill();
gallery_items.addChild(s);
function fl_SwipeToGoToNextPreviousFrame(event:TransformGestureEvent):void
if(event.offsetX == 1)
if(currentGalleryItem > 1){
currentGalleryItem--;
slideRight();
else if(event.offsetX == -1)
if(currentGalleryItem < totalGalleryItems){
currentGalleryItem++;
slideLeft();
function slideLeft(){
gallery_items.addEventListener("enterFrame", moveGalleryLeft);
function slideRight(){
gallery_items.addEventListener("enterFrame", moveGalleryRight);
function moveGalleryLeft(evt:Event){
gallery_items.x -= 76.8;
slideCounter++;
if(slideCounter == 10){
gallery_items.removeEventListener("enterFrame", moveGalleryLeft);
slideCounter = 0;
function moveGalleryRight(evt:Event){
gallery_items.x += 76.8;
slideCounter++;
if(slideCounter == 10){
gallery_items.removeEventListener("enterFrame", moveGalleryRight);
slideCounter = 0; -
Very slow receiving and placing calls
My Z30 lags big time when placing a call and also when answering an incoming call.. I would say there is a 10 - 20 second delay.. very annoying, is anyone else experiencing this issue? Is there a solution to this problem?
Solved!
Go to Solution.Yes, resetting the phone solved the problem of slow call out and receiving call!
Yay, thank you! -
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
date?

hi all.When pressed play and make some changes in loop (eg fade in fade out) are very slow to implement, and also the loops from the library are very slow to play, corrects the somewhat self so is the Logic??
Hey there Logic Pro21,
It sounds like you are seeing some odd performance issues with Logic Pro X. I recommend these troubleshooting steps specifically from the following article to help troubleshoot what is happening:
Logic Pro X: Troubleshooting basics
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5859
Verify that your computer meets the system requirements for Logic Pro X
See Logic Pro X Technical Specifications.
Test using the computer's built-in audio hardware
If you use external audio hardware, try setting Logic Pro X to use the built-in audio hardware on your computer. Choose Logic Pro X > Preferences > Audio from the main menu and click the Devices tab. Choose the built in audio hardware from the Input Device and Output Device pop-up menus. If the issue is resolved using built-in audio, refer to the manufacturer of your audio interface.
Start Logic with a different project template
Sometimes project files can become damaged, causing unexpected behavior in Logic. If you use a template, damage to the template can cause unexpected results with any project subsequently created from it. To create a completely fresh project choose File > New from Template and select Empty Project in the template selector window. Test to see if the issue is resolved in the new project.
Sometimes, issues with the data in a project can be repaired. Open an affected project and open the Project Information window with the Project Information key command. Click Reorganize Memory to attempt to repair the project. When you reorganize memory, the current project is checked for any signs of damage, structural problems, and unused blocks. If any unused blocks are found, you will be able to remove these, and repair the project. Project memory is also reorganized automatically after saving or opening a project.
Delete the user preferences
You can resolve many issues by restoring Logic Pro X back to its original settings. This will not impact your media files. To reset your Logic Pro X user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
In the Finder, choose Go to Folder from the Go menu.
Type ~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field.
Press the Go button.
Remove the com.apple.logic10.plist file from the Preferences folder. Note that if you have programmed any custom key commands, this will reset them to the defaults. You may wish to export your custom key command as a preset before performing this step. See the Logic Pro X User Manual for details on how to do this. If you are having trouble with a control surface in Logic Pro X, then you may also wish to delete the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder.
If you have upgraded from an earlier version of Logic Pro, you should also remove~/Library/Preferences/Logic/com.apple.logic.pro.
Restart the computer.
Isolate an issue by using another user account
For more information see Isolating an issue by using another user account.
Reinstall Logic Pro X
Another approach you might consider is reinstalling Logic Pro X. To do this effectively, you need to remove the application, then reinstall Logic Pro X. You don't have to remove everything that was installed with Logic Pro X. Follow the steps below to completely reinstall a fresh copy of Logic Pro X.
In the Finder, choose Applications from the Go menu.
Locate the Logic Pro X application and drag it to the trash.
Open the Mac App Store
Click the Purchases button in the Mac App Store toolbar.
Sign in to the Mac App Store using the Apple ID you first used to purchase Logic Pro X.
Look for Logic Pro X in the list of purchased applications in the App Store. If you don't see Logic Pro X in the list, make sure it's not hidden. See Mac App Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases for more information.
Click Install to download and install Logic Pro X.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Firefox 12 is very slow to load pages and if two tabs are opening it lags.
Firefox 12 is very slow to load pages and if two tabs are opening it lags. I've tried everything (e.g virus, defrag, I've created a new profile in "run", etc). I've had my router/line etc all checked and after 2 weeks of cleaning/testing etc its all pointing to Firefox as the problem. Please help as it's driving me nuts.
I have the exact same problem.
Not only does it load pages very slowly, sometimes the page will stop for a good 45 seconds and stop loading, only to finish it much later.
Something is wrong with Firefox 12, it shouldn't be this slow.
