Slow Application Manager when Installing
 

Am I the only guy who is having this problem?
After upgrading to PR 1.2 everything seems to run pretty well,
except for WHEN I TRY TO INSTALL PROGRAMS.

Right now I'm installing Brain Party and its been what? almost 5 minutes that this thing is on "Preparing for Installation, Please wait" page.

Does anybody know whats goin on here?




Oh and lil side question, are the kernel flashers still working? i wanna try flashing this phone to 800mhz

Your not the only one.

My app manager feels dead slooow. It takes 30 sec to remove the Forcea/Amazon/Favebook installers... and that's at 850 mhz! Some times the catagory images are slow to load as well...

Re: Slow Application Manager when Installing
 

Yes you are not the only one who is suffering from this issue. Uninstalling is faster than Installing. When the installation is completed, the notification on the screen showed up and you kinda have to pressed it a few times to get it out of the way so the App Manager can refresh the damn app list.

Sometimes it make me want to smash my N900!! But I didn't lol, because It would be a waste.

Below is my screen got stuck when installing app!!!

Re: Slow Application Manager when Installing
 

i did not even know that this is a bug/issue.

since i got my n900, its slow and unresponsive when installing/updating an app. and i saw that was normal (consumes 100% of CPU usage)

Re: Slow Application Manager when Installing
 

I second that, including the strong will to smash the n900 during these times against something solid.

Also have the same problem.

Re: Slow Application Manager when Installing
 

I was to understand this problem was solved with PR1.2.
Because I recall people reporting a very fast and smooth App Manager with the leaked PR1.2 firmware.
What a damn shame, because that was definitely one of the fixes I was looking forward to.
Because indeed. It's dreadfully slow.

Re: Slow Application Manager when Installing
 

you can always use apt-get install from X-Term... :cool:

Re: Slow Application Manager when Installing
 

Strangely enough you are right,,,with the leaked PR1.2 which i used the app manager was really faster than 1.1! Now I have upgraded to global 1.2 the app manager is sooooo painfully SLOW!!! What's happened? We go backwards instead of forwards?

Re: Slow Application Manager when Installing
 

yh iv noticed that to its very slow i fink when its installing when the bar gets to the end its loading all the installed apps and downloadable ones to but its stupid slow!

Re: Slow Application Manager when Installing
 

Is there any logging or similar that can be turned on to try and diagnose this? Has anyone raised a bug?

Re: Slow Application Manager when Installing
 

Yhh guys you arent alone. I have noticed this as well, Flippin annoying!

I have posted a bug report for it!
