Help Android 4.2.2 update making my phone slow

[kayliff]

Hi all,

New to the forum here, I just did an update to the new 4.2.2 via Kia software. Now my phone is so slow, sending text messages takes forever, won't download images via text, pressing buttons takes a lot longer to activate the apps or screens. I'm on an unlimited StraightTalk plan using a Galaxy Note, I already have the SD card unmounted but still no fix to the issues. I've called StraightTalk and they say that their service works with 4.2.2 I've tried setting a new APN but this still has no effect on the speed of the phone. I really don't want to down grade, I like the new OS but I can't handle the slowness from my phone. Any suggestions?

Their service handles any version of Android - your phone's hardware is probably being pushed to the limit, though.

Give it a factory reset and see if it sorts your problems. In most cases it does after people update the os.

Saying that, my Note was never the same after after the ICS update, and was absolutely useless and hardly working after the JB update though.

But yeah, give it a factory reset and see how you go with that.
