Does anyone else's google voice app open really slow? Almost ask of my other apps open immediately or at least in less than a second. For some reason the google voice app on my vibrant can take anywhere from 2-8 seconds to open...
Its very annoying...

yes, it does take forever to open at times. after you apply the lag fix it opens instantly though. depending on your preference and risk level if you want to venture down the "lag fix" path.
it did this when i updated it this morning, but it has been fine ever since
Mine opens quickly and I do not have a lag fix.
I love the new widgets.

oh, neat. i was wondering what the update actually did
still need to be able to block callers though (or is there a way to do this already?)
Since updating today its not only slow to load, but slow everywhere when using the app. It often hands for 3-5 seconds fit no apparent reason. Do I need to uninstall the app and reinstall? Is my inbox too full? It says I have just over 400 messages. Do I need to archive a bunch of them?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
So I tried cleaning out my inbox, rebooting my phone, and uninstall/reinstall of the app...none of this helped.
Am I they only one having issues?
Any ideas on what i could do to troubleshoot? Is this just a samsung thing and I should just wait until froyo update before spending too much time troubleshooting?

The new update was unbearable. Google voice always took 2-3 seconds to open but with this update it seems to take longer. On top of that it would lag the crap out of swype, and freeze the phone for 3-5 second after sending a message.
Titanium backup saved me from this horrible update.

Cysco24,
Glad to hear I'm nitty the only one. It freezes my swype keyboard for several seconds all the time as well. This update is horrible...

Just a note: it also freezes the stock android keyboard as well. So its not specific to swype...

like i mentioned earlier, i had this problem at first after the update but it has been fine ever since.

i uninstalled, reinstalled, restored to factory, wiped, and reinstalled and its still the same way, laggy as hell
Anyone ever found a solution for this? My google voice app is still slow and freezes the keyboard randomly for a few seconds...
Its this a vibrant problem or a google voice problem?

Sounds like a vibrant issue if after applying the lag fix it disappears.

i removed the update and the lag fix, install the update and reinstall the lagg fix, bur still no improvement, Does anybody knows where to get the old version? the old one was working better.
Just curious, anyone else find the choice of 1x3 sized widgets annoying?
My preference is usually 1x1, 1x2 or 1x4. 1x3 just seems odd.

So google just released an update for the GV app today. I installed it and so far it seems that the vast majority of lag I was experiencing is now gone! Has anyone else here that was having issues tried the update from today? I'm curious if any one else is having luck with todays update?

I don't find it annoying but I consider it a stupid choice by going with 1x3. I have Launcher Pro Plus so I just resize it to 1x4. Much better
Anybody else's G2 load the gallery extremely slow? It just started happening tonight and I did a hard reset but it didn't fix the problem.
Yeah. Its slow. The more pics and vids the slower it'll load.

Mine also is slow. Reminds me of my old crappy phones. I would expect more from the G2 on this subject.
Slow at stock speeds. Ok when overclocked. Pretty sure the faster your SD card, the faster gallery will load. The SD card that come with our phones isn't all that great.

Here's what I do to keep my gallery fast... Well, in a way.
The gallery automatically updates to your Picasa web albums. I highly recommend Picasa. You can also download a desktop client that is a great picture manager. I store ALL my pictures on Picasa web albums. I even purchased the extra 20 or so gigs of storage for $5. Totally worth it.
So I keep one folder (the camera folder) with my recently taken pictures. When it gets to about 15-20 pictures I use Picasa Tool Pro to upload them to a Picasa web folder called G2 Pictures. Then from there I can create different folders for different types of pictures and categories and move them there.
So when I open my gallery it only loads the picture that represents each album, instead of all of them. Then when I open each individual album it downloads them from Picasa. So this way I have access to ALL my pictures all the time, save space on my phone, and the gallery stays running fast. The downside is that when you open a specific album it takes a sec to download all the pictures. But I haven't found this to be a problem.
So yeah you might want to try this. It keeps my gallery fairly fast and I have hundreds if not thousands of pictures.
Well just my .02.
Ok. Say I'm playing angry birds, I hit home and open the browser, within 15 seconds the angry birds closes so when I go back to it, it has to reopen. Very annoying. My phone seems to want my ram to stay at 80mb free ram. Now I know android automatically closes apps and processes when the ram is needed, but to not be able to have 2 apps open is bugging the **** out if me.. The system should let it get to like 20 mb not closing apps constantly...
Anyone know what's up... Running tw bionix v1. Non tw version....
I dont want my apps to close on 80 mb ram.. I want them to close at like 20mb....
You can use galaxy tuner to set those numbers or auto killer . Auto killer has presets .

Looks like angry birds doesn't override onsaveinstancestate haha

Yes it does save, if you switch away and switch right back it retains state. The OP is complaining that it gets auto closed too easily

Any application does that regardless of if you override onsaveinstancestate. The bundle you are given is for when the OS needs to close the activity to reclaim memory.

I have this problem too. I'll be playing angry birds, receive a text, and in the time it takes me to reply and get back to the game (Something like 10-15 seconds) it closes.
Edit: Tried Galaxy Tuner. I set the BA slider to 10mb, like the FA slider. Works perfectly.

Well, if they don't worry about it, then neither will I. It took me forever to find the best way to save large arrays of different objects into the bundle. Serializable in case anyone is wondering.

Basically its the process of converting objects, with their states and data, into a linear simplified form so as to make it easy to save.
Instead of having separate functions to read the date of each object and save it, a programer can save the entire object as its stored in memory. With some precautions, this greatly simplifies the storage of data.
Its like saying save the object "highscores" instead of "foreach score write this to a file".
Just curious to what the average number of apps a person has installed is.

Yeah I have 128 in app drawer. Of course some of those are stock apps but I have deleted about 10 stock apps too. I have easily purchased over $100 in apps and there are about 20 that aren't even installed anymore, but just sit in my Market as purchased.
I have 71 total apps
Sent from my Evo Killer using XDA Premium App
I think I'm an appaholic. My market history shows 154 downloads, and the Amazon appstore shows another 95 (most just free apps of the day I tried out). The "ALL" catalog on my ADW shows 16 windows of 4 x 4 apps (for 256 installed apps, many of which are system apps).
In my defense, a lot of these are games (most for my kids, but some that I like). I also try out a lot of apps, and those that can be moved to the SD card I just leave on there. I definitely have a lot that I stumbled upon, thought "oh, this would be great to have," and then have never used.
I have 181 apps on my apps drawer. I have some apps on sd card cause o don't have enough room on my phone for them all

Lux Free Dash (to correct auto screen brightness)
Mercury Messenger (because microshaft dropped Yahoo compatability)
Speed Test
WOL
XDA
Yahoo Messenger
Those and the Apps that come with MROM and the Google apps.
Other than what comes with the ROM, about 70-75 (can't tell for sure, I moved some to /system/app for convenience).
I absolutely and completely cannot understand having as many as 400+ apps on a phone. Browsing through that many apps would really be no different to me than browsing through the Play store itself. I see no convenience in that, only problems.
I have less than 20 on my phone, that does not include what is standard in the ROM.

I've got just over 60 and am looking for ways to trim down this number all the time. Just can't even imagine having 400+ apps on my phone
I have, besides the ones that come with the phone, about 30. And just like you guys, if I have more than +100 apps, is not a phone is a frickin tablet or PC, not worth it, for me I my add.:fingers-crossed:
Around 75 or so...and I'm constantly going through and weeding out the ones I don't use.
67 apps!
