iOS 4 is significantly worse on my 3G. The phone needs to be restarted a couple times per day. Mail and the SMS app crash pretty regularly and everything is significantly slower to respond. I've helped a few friends downgrade to 3.1.3 since they were having similar problems on the 3G. iOS 4 seems to work just fine on the 3GS however.
- logic 16y agoOn my jailbroken 3G, I use the SBSettings processes option to forcefully kill off processes running in the background (yes, I foolishly enabled multitasking, thinking it would behave sanely; Backgrounder, another jailbroken app, provided this kind of functionality previously, and did so very well) and to force the garbage collector to run; the latter can help significantly. Overall, 4.0 was not a good upgrade for the 3G.
- ktsmith 16y agoI used similar tools on my 3G with the 3.x series but haven't taken the time or bothered with jailbreaking iOS4. I figured there would be updates relatively soon and wanted to at least give it some time and see how things ran stock. So far I've been really disappointed and I have to agree, 4.0 is not a good upgrade for the 3G. I have to wonder if perhaps Apple should have just made the upgrade unavailable for 3G owners like they've done with the previous generations of the touch.
