    Hi,

    It has come to my attention that anything to do with AppManager is extremely slow.

    For example if i want to install something it can take several minutes to bring up the list of apps. If i click update it can take 3 or screen timeouts before i get to see the available updates.

    Once the lists are loaded all runs at a good sppeed. Just seems to be fetching the data is time consuming.

    Is there something i can change to speed things up?

    I have the following repo's enabled :

    Nokia Apps
    Nokia System Software Updated
    Ovi
    Extras
    Testing
    Dev
    Sygic

    Not sure but it might have been fixed in PR1.2

    This is a problem with all Nokia S60 phones as well. I thought the N900 would be faster, but apparently not.

    even going into the catalogues screen is a real chore!

    disabling dev and testing... we'll see if that improves things.

    I disable all the catalogs except ones I am specifically interested in. This helps maximize rootfs space and I think speeds the App Mgr up.

    What a completely failure. Updating, installing or just viewing installable apps is so frustrating. What the heck is going on? I've had the AppManager "Check for updates, please wait" sit on the screen for over 30 minutes the past few days. Its ridiculous.

    since disabling extras dev and testing it is a lot quicker but there should be a better way. Users wishing to utilise either of those repos should not have to put up with appalling waits to access software.

    It probably would be a little more bearable is updates wasn't as slow. But even after the app manager informs you that there are updates available - presumably the same check has been run in the background - it seems to need to do the check all over again if you elect to install the updates.

    Even when used when connected to wifi it takes just as long so can't be contributed to slow connection.
