its not so much the phone as it is the crappy ROM it's running. as soon as cyanogen is out all will be well 
also, try installing the google now launcher if you haven't already. i'm not sure why but it's sped the phone up and everything feels a lot more snappy/responsive now. could just be a placebo effect of running Google's own launcher but meh, it works for me. |
google launcher is the first thing i did. is it possible to just use the same android that we'd get on the nexus devices (aka almost raw)?
