A few problems
 

I have had my N900 for about 6 weeks now, all has been great so far. I am running the latest firmware from Nokia, and recently I have seen my device run slower and slower!! This morning, I had to use the power button to turn my alarm off. I pressed the Off button, which then was highlighted but the alarm still sounded. It done this for both alarms (as I need two to get up in the morning =P).

The handset now seems to be running rather slow, and I am wondered if there is anything that I can do to "clean it up" somewhat? I am going through my App Manager this second to uninstall all Apps that I don't use, which I hope will help out.

Any ideas welcome though, I'm no expert that's for sure!!

Re: A few problems
 

how many root space you got?which tasks are running?more info please

Re: A few problems
 

19.07 GB free on the handset.
13.90 GB free on the memory card.
1.64 GB free for installable applications.

As for tasks that I am running, I always have just desktop widgets open, and the only one I have added is a Countdown timer.

jeah looking in the options from your phone is not really usefull it shows only a few infos.do you got the extras devel kalogue installed?and when jes then download conky.its a app which shows you everythink about your device.your cpu and ram usage and how many space is in your root fs .

Re: A few problems
 

I will download and install Conky.. and then let you know the results. Give me 5 minutes!!

Re: A few problems
 

Got Conky. Thanks for the heads up on it. I have attached a screen-shot of the outcome. Wow my CPU is high!!

Re: A few problems
 

If you open Conky, does hildon-home always use 90-100% of the CPU?

Re: A few problems
 

As soon as I open Conky, it's total CPU is on less than 2%, then goes right up. hildon-home is on 94-96 at the moment.

hmm your root space is ok but your swap eam usage and your cpu are very high.what kind of widgets do you use?you must know that widgets like foreca weather or something are the whole time running and downloading what can kill your cpu.first i would download the cpumem-applet its very usefull because it shows your alltime your cpu and memory usage.please uninstall everything you dont really need and be carefull with the extras devel apps.i know they are very ineresting but they can slowdown your phone

Re: A few problems
 

The only added widget is one contact, and also a countdown application that only updates the time when I am on that home screen... which is rarely. I have gone through my apps list, and uninstalled a fair few applications and themes, which I never use. But I will go through and remove some more in a minute aswell.
