ok so here's the situation. I know that my battery is bad but i don't know if that's causing the problem. I was working on my car today and noticed that i had a text, so when i tried to open it, the phone froze. I thought no biggie and soft reset the phone. Here's where the problem began. It was on the loading screen.....and never did anything else. So i reset again and again until i plugged it to a wall. Same thing. It eventually booted up all the way, but it was acting way too slow. It would take more than 2 minutes to respond to an input. When I tried to make a call after it was on the phonepad, it took 3 minutes to even dial the speednumber and make the call. The call went through with no events. I patiently went to my back up program to try to back up my info and whatnot and it was so slow that it didn't back anything up. Has anyone had this problem before? I hope I explained it clearly.

My current rom is Solace 3.1 from mbarvian.

The best is if you replace the battery. It can be so slow cause of the battery. But it can also be your ROM. You could try a different ROM but I wouldn't recommend that until you have a better battery.

truth be told, i was holding off on the battery until the pro touch 2 came out for AT&T, but now i think it's best, even if i don't keep the phone. I have it plugged into the wall right now and it still doesnt want to finish backing up my stuff.

Is that a 6.5 ROM?

Get a replacement battery. You can try eBay. I have had good luck with battery there.

Once you have battery, backup your data and note down all you settings and then hard reset. After reset, redo your settings, restore your data. It should be fast as new.

seems strange that it would be a battery causing the phone to lock up, normally it is a program or something that causes it. If you have the phone plugged in to the wall and it still happens then I would say " how could it be the battery when that's not the power source"..



Keep trying to back it up, then hardreset the phone.

to answer a few posts back, it's a 6.1 rom. As far as the battery goes, i left it plugged for 24hours and then when i tried turning it on, still slow as always. I'm beginning to think that it's a combination of a corrupt rom and bad battery. I NEED to back up my stuff, but i wonder how i can do it if it's acting all slow.

I think it's just a problem with the rom. Good luck backing stuff up.

yeah no kidding. haha. i can't even access half of the stuff on that phone. I wonder what caused it to go bad after 2 months or so of use with that ROM.
