iPhone 2.0 slow backup process and so on

[backup process after 12 minutes]

after getting through a tough time with initial installations of 2.0 i've finally made my 12th restore, including 10 restore getting the 'number display fix' and this time is the final [until Apple releases the firmware update very soon].

as for the backup process which comes partly along with a normal sync but takes ages, nearly 15 mins and mostly the backup is corrupted and saved under file name 'unknown'. i've red through several forums and tech-talks on similar concerns. i have to agree that slow process is due to the heavy applications, i first had roughly 50 applications from Appstore, paid and free; out of this super monkey ball and aurora feint are extremely large applications for the cause. now that i have removed all this massive apps for time being which makes this pretty speedy [faster than old 1.1.4 to be precise], backup process is as fast as it was in older versions, though it might take a minute or two during the first backup process but afterwards its faster than light. besides this installing apps from appstore was god damn slow, but it 'was'; now i'm happily enjoying the 2.0 here. [looking for a way to get a 'us' iTunes account? don't be shy to drop a line here]

with these applications out of sight, [at least until an update from Apple] sms app is back to normal and using the keyboard is just as easy as it always has been.

we have been talking about the big change Apple brought up - Mobileme being the replacement for .mac, honestly it is a disaster now. although a lot of improvement is in place after the major crash last week. once again, i have access to my emails, finally!! [smile] - check out the status here

so until the new update, and until the release of Installer.app for iPhone 2.0 i'll just keep my mouth shut. for now cydia is keeping up pretty well with new repo's for the firmware, i'm glad!

sweet 2.0 it is!
