Groink do you make a habit of using the Task Killer you already have on the phone?

jesubod, does the ATK kill the tasks automatically?

Have you looked around an Android forum ? ... I saw this and it says that running ATK kills the battery quicker and there was other advices from people who have the Androids ..they seem a little complicated

Lol, you clearly don't know much about the galaxy s line.  root your phone groink.

You arent worried about bricking it?

You arent worried about bricking it?

I wouldn't advocate that someone who is a regular user to do it, but if you brick it and have insurance, just hit it with a brick and get another....

There are one click root guide for most popular phones..

Rooting on these phones is so easy.  I've got a custom 2.2 rom on my vibrant and its awesome.

goddamn, look at all this nerdy talk, Im so glad I bought a phone that doesnt require a geek user.

I have the Epic....and read about rooting because I HATE that welcome screen with the "Sprint 4G" and sound effect....talk about waste of time....

I now have a Droid X rooted and an Iphone....Iphone beats it. I'm just desperately waiting for the miui rom for Droid X.

I might watch some netflix instant on my Iphone tonight at the gym...what does Android have now; a queue manager and that's it?

[jesusbod]

Perhaps you downloaded a rogue app?

I would just do a factory reset, or system restore. That should solve all the problems you are having.

Then i would download only apps one at a time, and make sure that they work well before installing another...

Root the phone like someone else said...

If he is on AT&T, he won't be able to install any APPS that are not approved by AT&T unless he has a "side loader" program. Hope this helps.

Blackberries are for N88gers and low white trash.. Just saying.

[epic_alien]

gayer than using a phone for things other than talking.

Then you should get some heterosexual friends or at least semi-successful friends, twink metrosexual's and their iphone's need not apply.

i can help groink.

what you have is pretty standard lag that appears on all galaxy s phones due to the dodgy .rfs file system.

thankfully for you the geeks on xda have developed a fix.

the change the phone to use the ext2 file system instead.

its a .apk file.

Copy over the APK file onto your phone, and run/install it as normal using 'My Files'. There will be a 'One Click Lag Fix' app installed. Run that, and select the option you want!

then do not use or touch ur phone till it finishes 10 mins later at least.

i put it on megaupload for you.

not true. Blackberry is dying a slow death.
i when to a meeting today, before and during break i checked out everyones smartphones. 60% of the people there had evo 4Gs, there was 1 blackberry, 1 google phone, and the rest were iphones. Not a fan of android the UI and browser are too clucky.  But a lot of people there dig the evo 4g.
