Re: N900 generally slow and unresponsive
 

Version 20.2010.36-2.
I will try and see if any difference with and without those apps.
By saying kernel, I expect that you mean overclocking. I usually leave it at stock 600mhz cause i have been feeling there is not much gain in setting mhz. If i do, max i will set at 1Ghz.

Ya, I have those account plugins but I only use for msn, skype, facebook, google, ovi and sip services. AND most of the time they are offline because I do not use data plan and only connect to wifi when I want to.

THanks.

That's good. BTW, if you want pinyin, you'd like to install mscim-n900-ppinputmethod in which you can find pinyin. Penpower is the most stable Chinese input method afaik. ;)

Re: N900 generally slow and unresponsive
 

You have SOO much crap installed.

You only need 1 battery monitor tool. Remove either batterygraph or battery eye.

Also remove pedometer, it polls the accelerometer like a mother b|tch ffs.

Re: N900 generally slow and unresponsive
 

in fact, the scim is used for japanese input.
i dont remember the name exactly but it is called something anthy scim. i could input Japanese and Chinese (and maybe Korean as well) in the beginning but after some reboots and apps installation, only Japanese input feature is left available.
anyway, thanks for ur recommendation, i would like to have chinese input as well if it is good. hope it wont conflict with other input apps.

Re: N900 generally slow and unresponsive
 

do u mean me?
i dont have pedometer, i did have it before.

anyway, even if we have crap apps installed, or many similar apps like batterygraph and battery eye installed. i wonder if they will use the cpu/memory resources if i do not launch them.

in this case (battery monitoring), i think the apps dont run in the background, i am not sure but i guess there is a stock feature which records the battery performance. And the battery apps extract the battery info to produce the graphs. So, having them but not launching them is not gonna be a cause for the unresponsiveness, according to my limited judgement.

Re: N900 generally slow and unresponsive
 

Shortcutd is old and tested to death, never had any issues with it.

Recaller kills the phone when recording or when stuck. Make sure the widget is red. When in doubt, switch to WAV recording and you're golden.

I had callnotify for a while and I removed it on a whim. Didn't notice anything big, though.

Re: N900 generally slow and unresponsive
 

thanks for the info.
personally i am using recaller with aac setting because i think wav is gonna create bigger file. anyway, i have had no problem with it related to slowing down performance.

Re: N900 generally slow and unresponsive
 

I'm the first owner of the phone so there wasn't a previous one :D

And I tried to attach the package.list file but this website won't let me? I'm probably doing something wrong.

Re: N900 generally slow and unresponsive
 

Okei, here it is actually, as a zip file, I hope it works :D

Re: N900 generally slow and unresponsive
 

Sorry I must have confused you with the other one with the same question.

Your case is much easiler. Please try to remove the following, reboot and test, and then install them one by one, rinse and repeat:

advanced-clock-plugin (known to be stable now, so you may skip this)
advanced-power
advanced-power-monitor
callnotify
mycontacts
per-contact-ringtones
shortcutd*

*some said shortcutd is okay, so you may leave it behind for the moment.

P.S. My apology to the maintainers of the above packages listed. Just trying to figure out the problem and this might eventually help improving yours.
