I had a software update no so long ago. My HTC DesireHD is now on version 2.3.5 which is great. However it does appear to have slowed my phone down.

For a start the time taken to load from off is nearly 2 minutes. It was 1. Furthermore web browsing seems slightly stuttered.

Has anyone else noticed anything similar, or is my phone on it's last legs again?

Try turning on USB debugging.

Go to: menu, settings, applications, development then select USB Debugging.

My Desire Hd seems pretty much the same speed wise.

Perhaps it's dreaming of electric sheep?

Dan, thanks for the tip I'll give it a try.

Stan, thanks for the hint. I doubt I would've got sir Barnacle of widgets' reference otherwise. It pre-dates me by a few years.

USB debugging will allow auto download so be aware of that if you choose this route.

By the sounds of it there maybe a confliction after your recent update, you may need to perform a factory reset as the latest firmware made my Desire super fast.

Funny enough Joe, my phone went for repair a few months back and it came back super fast after they had reset it all.

I may just go down that route. At least I should then have a good starting point if it still isn't right.

Sounds rather messy.

Any chance your phone can use 4.0?

I did some searching and it should get an official update to 4 in the near future.

Hopefully my brothers sensation gets it first so I can judge it before I upgrade.
